A few Days at Ho'olei - Grand Wailea, Maui

By
Real Estate Agent with Dakno Marketing

Owning your own business definitely has it’s ups and downs. But overall, I feel the positives outweigh the negatives. One of the positives is having great clients all over the county. This allows me to travel to some really amazing places. This week is one of those times. I’m in Maui doing some consulting for Maui Real Estate Agent Dano Sayles.  To really get a feel for the market, I’m staying at Hoolei which is located in beautiful Wailea, South Maui. Hoolei, is community of villas made up of both private ownership as well as vacation rentals averaging from 2500 to over 3,000 square feet in size. These fully furnished villas have spectacular ocean and garden views.

All Work and No Play in Maui?

While most of my time will be work, I am managing to carve out a few days for some relaxation. Unfortunately, my wife wasn’t able to make it down with me but we are already talking about a return visit with her.  It’s always fun to spend time with “locals” as you can really get a feel for the area beyond just the typical resort spots. However, I must admit that the resorts are pretty incredible. Hoolei (technically I think it’s Ho’olei) is surrounded by the Wailea Old Blue golf course, as well as the luxury Grand Wailea Resort Hotel & Spa. "Over the top" is about the only way to describe the Grand Wailea. Luckily, guests staying at Ho’olei enjoy full access to Grand Wailea including their pools and all amenities.

From Kaanapali to Wailea

I’ve been fortunate enough to vacation in Maui a few times. And while I’ve typically stayed in Kaanapali, Wailea is quickly becoming my new favorite spot on Maui.

Oh how I love Maui.  Been to the Grand Wailea. I long to go there.  It would be hard not to relax there.  That is a great perk.

The website looks great. Very professional, easy for the eyes, not too much information, yet not not enough for Google. Good job, Brad. You are awesome!

Being self employed definately does have it's rewards, and travel is just one of them.  Have a great time and safe return home.

Oh dear, Brad . . .I think I'm reacting with a bit of jealousy.  I love Hawaii.  Jim and I were  married there 26 years ago.  We visited a number of islands and had such a wonderful time.  We went back for our 1st anniversary, but haven't been back since.  I've been "chomping at the bit" to go back again for the last couple of years.  I hope you continue to enjoy your trip.  Make it a safe one!

Brad is back,

I subscribed a while back and you went on an Activerain hiatus?  I was wondering, there are some other blogging spaces, which ones do you recommend.  Are there also places that will send your blogs to other place, what is the best way to do that?
