Woo hoo! Hubby and I are going to Maui for a week! Do you have any tips or suggestions on things to do when we get there?

Old Lahaina Luau
Marine World (aquarium)
snorkelling
Food- Lahaina fish house
Walking tour of Lahaina
The road to Hana
Eat shave ice
Beaches away from the resort are much nicer
Take a driving trip around the island too
Hope this helps.

The gigantic dormant volcano is Haleakala. A very popular thing to do is to get there before dawn and watch the sun rise from above the clouds. After the sunrise, you can coast a bike down the side of the volcano for the next two hours.
I would recommend
http://www.mauidownhill.com/haleakala.html
They drive you to the top with a bike and let you take your own time going as fast or as slow as you like on the way back.
You should go snorkeling at Molokini which is a volcanic crater that has collapsed into the ocean. For that I would go on the Pride of Maui. http://www.prideofmaui.com/ Or http://www.sailtrilogy.com/adventures/molokini/
The old Lahaina Luau should not be missed.
http://www.oldlahainaluau.com/index_main.html
This is the best luau in Hawaii. You will need to make reservations in advance though because it's always sold out.
Whale Watching is a lot of fun. http://www.pacificwhale.org/
You've got to drive the Road to Hana.
http://www.alternative-hawaii.com/drives/maui/rthp1.htm
http://www.alternative-hawaii.com/drives/maui/rthp2.htm
This drive is consistently ranked as one of the top 10 drives in the US.
As you near Hana, you should visit the 7 sacred pools.
http://www.hawaiiweb.com/maui/html/sites/seven_sacred_pools.html
Which is a series of waterfalls and pools at the base of the waterfalls.
That's all for now.

I would personally be certain the hubby and I check out the bed thoroughly. Shower, order room service and check out the reading material (places to go and things to see). I would then double check the bed, get a good nights sleep (jet lag cure helper) and head out in the morning.
