Even with all the resorts that call Maui home, you might think it'd still be pretty easy to find good deals on island lodgings. But you'd be wrong. Though they are not nearly as prevalent as five star luxury hotels, cheap Maui hotels abound across the island, giving travelers a chance to see the beauty of Hawaii without stressing over price. Since resorts dominate the landscape in hotspots like Lahaina and Wailea, looking into other great Mauian cities like Kihei or Kahului is a great place to start when searching for Maui hotel discounts.

The Maui Coast Hotel in Kihei is not far from the great Sugar Beach Resort, so location is not a question. And it offers the same range of watersports and access to hiking and biking that make Maui such a major tourist draw. Especially if you want to spend some time in a city that has some old-world charm like Kihei, this Maui Hawaii cheap hotel is certainly for you.

Also in Kihei is the Hale Kamaole, which near a major shopping center, offers miles of land for horseback riding and has private lanais where visitors can enjoy sunsets and tropical drinks. It is also nearby the Kamaole Beach Park, where you can swim, snorkel or surf in the Pacific's balmy waters. Kihei is where you'll find other Maui hotel discounts like Hale Pau Hana, and the Best Western Maui Oceanfront Inn. The former is a great place for families, with day-long kids activities, and the latter is one of the best values when it comes to Maui Hawaii cheap hotels.

Not nearly as many people descend on Kahului Bay like they do Kaanapali Beach. Or even Wailea or Hana Bay. Which is too bad, as Kahului is one of the great finds on Maui, and is where you can stay at the Maui Seaside Hotel. This cheap Maui hotel is within five miles of landmarks such as the Alexander & Baldwin Sugar Museum, Iao Valley State Park, Hookipa Beach, and the beginning of the Hana Highway.

If you want to stay in Lahaina - and most people do - the Best Western Pioneer Inn might be the cheap Maui hotel for you. In between Lahaina Harbor and Banyan Tree Park, the Pioneer Inn is a rare find - a beachfront property at a low, low price. Maui Hawaii cheap hotels don't get much better than this.

The Lahaina Inn gets you up close to the beach at inexpensive prices, the tropical gardens at the Mauian Hotel are a real find and the Napili Sunset is just another cheap Maui hotel you can find along the streets of Lahaina.

You'll find Maui hotel discounts, too, at the Kulakane Hotel. Found in between Lahaina and Kapalua, this is one of the best values anywhere on the island. It's still beachfront, and if you have a car, it's well within traveling distance of all the major tourist attractions of the area, whether it's Kaanapali Beach or the Kapulua golf courses.
