Maui is Ranked Number 2 on a Top 10 List of Domestic Destinations


“Maui is ranked number 2 on a top 10 list of domestic destinations being booked for 2016, according to the Travel Trends Survey released today by the Travel Leaders Group, a company that touts itself as America’s largest travel agency company.
Maui moved up a spot from number 3 in 2015, and ranked just a tenth of a percentage point behind Orlando, Florida, which also moved up a spot from the previous survey.
The survey asked agents to name up to five top destinations they are already booking.
Results for the 2016 Top US Destinations list is as follows:
  1. 1. Orlando, FL 35.9%
  2. 2. Maui, HI 35.8%
  3. 3 Cruise – Alaska 35.3%
  4. 4 New York, NY 30.6%
  5. 5 Las Vegas, NV 28.8%
  6. 6 Honolulu, HI 21.5%
  7. 7 Los Angeles, CA 16.0%
  8. 8 San Francisco, CA 15.1%
  9. 9 Chicago, IL 14.3%
  10. 10 Miami/Miami Beach, FL 13.9%”  Source: http://mauinow.com/2015/12/16/survey-maui-ranked-2-on-top-10-us-destinations-list/
Interesting stats. When I think Orlando (besting Maui by one tenth of a percentage point), I think of crowds and crazy huge parking lots. Having been a Maui resident for 30 years, I can honestly say that crowds and crazy huge parking lots are just not parts of the package. In fact, much of Maui is still quite raw.
Taking things to a more personal level, take a look at the photo that accompanies this article. The outdoor space that’s bathed in sunlight, overlooking all that tropical greenery and the blue Pacific is about as far from crowds as one can get. Just imagine lazily lying in your hammock or BBQing for 75 of your closest friends. What would you do with that kind of outdoor space?
The main home that sits on 2 acres has a total of 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms over 3,778 square feet. The master bedroom, an ensuite bedroom and a third bedroom create a perfect family lifestyle, all on the main upper floor. The lower floor features two more bedrooms. All living areas, whether upstairs or downstairs, offer the same incredible views. You’ll love that there’s a guest cottage on the property.
I would love to have the opportunity to give you a private tour of the property. Call or text me at 808-205-2175 or drop me a line.
