Known for hospitality and warm welcomes, bed and breakfasts are an excellent way to turn overnight accommodations in Maui into something special. Throughout the island, innkeepers open their homes, boutique inns, and historic properties to guests, inviting them to experience all the benefits of a bed and breakfast in Maui. Maui bed and breakfast inns are a popular choice for honeymoons and other romantic escapes, and some welcome families and provide child-friendly activities.

As with B&Bs on the mainland, a Maui bed and breakfast provides a custom, personalized visit. Many of the rooms are one-of-a-kind, as distinctive as the individual B&Bs themselves. The breakfasts are also a fine way to greet the morning, as home-cooked meals can be a real treat while on vacation. Along with being decorators, cooks, and innkeepers, the owners are also skilled conversationalists and experts on things to do on the island, so a bed and breakfast in Maui puts a lot value into one visit.

In the center of the island, travelers can make reservations at a Maui B&B and experience the charm of a bygone era. The Old Wailuku Inn at Ulupono, steeped in Hawaiian history, features several rooms in a historic house. After starting their morning with a hearty meal, guests can spend time relaxing on the terrace or get out and explore. Several attractions are within a short drive or even walking distance of the B&B. The Bailey Museum is only ten minutes away by foot, while the Maui Tropical Plantation, Maui Ocean Center, and the Puunene Sugar Cane Museum can be reached with ten-minute drives.

Vacationers also can include a Maui bed and breakfast when their vacation plans call for time along the island's North Shore. Located in a plantation house just off the beach, the Kuau Inn (pictured at top) is within a short walk of historic Paia Town and its restaurants, stores, galleries, and beaches. The historic inn is located within five miles of the island's main airport in Kahului. This Maui B&B offers amazing views, as rooms face the ocean or Haleakala Crater.

In a quiet neighborhood in South Kihei, the Two Mermaids on Maui Bed and Breakfast offers a quiet escape. In the morning, guests will find a basket filled with island treats, including strawberries, dragon fruit, and fresh-cut pineapples. At the end of the day, guests can gather around the pool as the tiki torches burn. In between, there is a wide variety of things to experience. For instance, Kamaole Beach is steps away, and the licensed activity desk at the bed and breakfast in Maui helps book things to do, including snorkeling, cruises, luaus, biking, and whale watching trips.

While Two Mermaids is a small place, with only two rooms, other Maui B&B inns can accommodate more guests. With nineteen rooms and suites, the Plantation Inn extends hospitality to Lahaina visitors. Found within two blocks of the water, the boutique inn is well-regarded for its chic design and welcoming amenities, including air-conditioning, private bathrooms, and wireless internet access. Gerard's Restaurant on-site is an option for fine dining, renowned for its French island cuisine.

Another Lahaina town inn is located just 150 feet from the beach. The charmingly named Penny's Place Inn Paradise Bed and Breakfast features Old World decorations, well-appointed rooms, private bathrooms, and in-room DVD players.
