Having recently returned from both Maui & Honolulu, I can give you some pointers on locating tikis. In Maui, I recall 4 differnt paces to buy tikis.
1.I found a large lady selling tikis next to the aquarium near Ma'alaea.
2.The same lady was also selling them in Lahaina. She was located on Front St., about mid-street on the mauka side (towards the mountain) of the street. She is set a liitle back.
3. There is a guy at the south end of Front St. who is set up in font of a store.
4.Under the Banyan Tree, they have an art festival, but I'm not sure how often they have it. There is a guy how has 3 tables full of tikis. All these tiki carvers had excellent work.

In Honolulu, the only place we found tikis was at the International Market Place. They were so-so. Definitley better in Maui.
Hope this helps.
