The 30th Annual Kapalua Wine & Food Festival,  "A Toast to 3-0", celebrates the fine wine and some of the finest food in the islands.     It's that time of year again!  Hosted by Master Sommelier Fred Dame, Kapalua Resort's legendary Kapalua Wine and Food Festival celebration takes place this June 9-12. Friday and Sunday nights are the standout events the Festival is known for, but for newcomers, they should know the festival include so much more: tastings, classes, a wine maker's dinner, and even a golf tournament.  Amongst the tastings, I'm particularly looking forward to "Three Decades of Reserve Cab", a tasting featuring Beringer, Cardinale, Jordan and Silver Oak Wineries, with selections from the 80's, 90's and 2000's.   But if Cabs aren't your thing, there's "Pinots Meet Cheese"-w...

WEEK OF APRIL 4TH IN MAUI, HAWAII~ Kaanapali Beach was the beach we decided to hit first when we got to Maui~ and we could see a swarm of people with cameras and in an area bunched together.

Poor guy was exhausted! he tried to scooch himself back in the water & no luck! We called the Marine Life Rescue and someone arrived about 10 minutes later... Here is a little info. and our photo from the beach>  OUR TUESDAY TREASURE~ MAKING IT BACK SAFE INTO THE WATER SAFELY~ Hawaiin Monk SealUnlike most seals, Hawaiian Monk Seals are solitary anima...

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Kapalua: Maui Real Estate Update Lehman Brother's Holdings has foreclosed on the hotel property, and auction is scheduled for May 5th in Wailuku.  As you may know, the hotel underwent an extensive renovation in 2007, which exceeded $180 million and a beautiful transformation.  During that time, the north (Honolua) wing was converted into 107 one and two bedroom condominium suites, which were then offered for sale as the Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua Residential Suites.  Since the initial offering, 34 suites have been purchased.  The foreclosure action does not apply to these privately owned condominium units, but rather to the 73 unsold Residential Suites units, the 296 hotel rooms in the south wing, common areas, and commercial spaces.

I am in sunny Lahaina Maui for the weekend working opens on my new listing. Maui is such a beautiful island..... and this time a year it is hard NOT to see a whale or two breaching out in the beautiful blue sea. I live on Oahu, so being in Maui is like a vacation! The plane ride is only 25 minutes and it is a whole different laid back world over here. I highly recommend anybody and everybody to visit. I favor the Kaanapali Beach Resort area, but I believe whereever you decide, you will not be disappointed.
