Hawaii Travel: Lahaina Inn
admin
Hotels like the Lahaina Inn in Lahaina, Maui typically run a kings ransom for a short stay. Most properties in Lahaina are rather expensive. The value does not always match the price in these cases. The greatest benefit to staying in this kind of lodging is the convenient access to the town of Lahaina. Lahaina, the culturally rich former whaling town has several tourist attractions including shopping, eateries, and entertainment.
Lahaina Shopping
One of the most accessible tourist gems of Lahaina is shopping. There are three primary locations for shopping in Lahaina. Each shopping haven offers a different shopping experience for tourists seeking native goods and Hawaiian fare. The three shopping meccas of Lahaina are Whalers Village and The Lahaina Cannery Mall. Each plaza has something different for your shopping needs and offers a little something extra in the form of entertainment.
Whalers Village is situated near the famous whaling museum that is a free and education Maui attraction. The plaza maintains an eclectic store directory. A combination of specialty shops and apparel shops accompany an international food court. If you are seeking Hawaiian apparel souvenirs then this is the place for you. A highlight of this shopping area is nightly hula entertainment. A view of the monthly calendar reveals weekend hula entertainment ranging from Polynesian to Tahitian dance and lei making classes throughout the week.
The Lahaina Cannery Mall offers similar shopping fare. This occurs inside a large indoor structure. The mall is air-conditioned, which can come in handy on hot Maui days. The Lahaina Cannery Mall also offers Hawaiian apparel and specialty stores and a delectable food court. A perk of this shopping area is that hula entertainment is provided on a nightly basis. Weekend shows consist of a revved up version of the hula know as Kihei. You dont want to miss these free entertainment gifts in the midst of your souvenir shopping so plan your shopping time accordingly.
