Polo Beach
For children (or adults), the swimming pool is number 1 on the list, a good spot for swim lessons. Walking along the path, sand castles on the beach, the sugar cane train at Kaanapali, Tropical Plantation-coconut chopping and train, shopping at Lahaina, and many movie theaters. The only "must do's" are our pool and beach. Four Seasons (short walk) has a Kids Day Camp - I'm not positive, but I don't think you have to stay there. Wailea and Makena Tennis clubs have kids programs. There are several sitting services in the yellow pages but we haven't used them.

There is so much to see, it takes many trips to see it all, but taking the walk through the Iao Needle park, the road trip to Hana with the waterfalls on the way, don't forget to pick up a cassette tape in Kahului of what to see on the way, Twin Falls, and shopping at Lahaina. Kids or adult golf(5 18's nearby, 6 close by, and 5 more at Kaanapali/Kapalua). Tennis (play or lessons, even a grass court) is available at Makena or Wailea, just playing in the sand at our beach is probably the best though (for kids and everyone). Our swimming pool, spa, and sun deck is ocean front, and you can walk/jog on the beach path. There's excellent art galleries at the Shops of Wailea, and Friday night is artists night at Lahaina. Tropical plantation tours, Sugar cane train, horse back riding either upcountry or at Makena Stables, movie theatres- in Kihei or Kahumanu Center in Kahului. Boy, it's just about endless. Surfing, body-boarding and body surfing, wind surfing, snorkeling - all right in front. Beginning surfing at Cove Park, advanced surfing all over. Excellent restaurants are nearby - Roy's, Nicks, Cucina Pacifica, Pacific Café, SeaWatch, Carelli's, and more. For kids: McDonalds, Taco Bell, Panda Express. Many coffee houses with great local beans. We've been going for 17 years and have not done it all. There are also sitting services in the phone book, and free activity guides in the office or around town.

Surfing and windsurfing are excellent, from advanced to beginner. Right on our beach is body surfing, body boarding and windsurfing, and surfing is just one peak to the south. (Of course conditions depend on how good the surf is that is hitting Maui at the time). There is a great beginner surf spot down the road in Kihei called Cove Park - right off the main road before Foodland Market. This is where our kids learned to surf and has to be one of the easiest, funnest, and quickest learning waves on the planet. Easy access and relatively safe. Rental boards available at Local Motion or Honolua surf shops. Intermediate surfing at 1,000 peaks between the cave tunnel on the way to Lahaina, and Olowalu. Hundreds of other spots around the island depending on ability. Lessons available at several places in the yellow pages including Maui Surfing School 875-0625, and Emerson at 874-1183.
