My wife and I were just on Maui last October for our Anniversary. I personally found there to be some fun tiki spots to visit, but frankly most of the cocktails on the island are a bit lacking.

If you're in Lahaina, be sure to stop by Hale Kahiko. It's a reproduction of an old Hawaiian living compound, located for whatever reason in the parking lot of the Lahaina Center. Pretty interesting and not a huge time commitment if you're busy.

There's a bar in Kihei called the South Shore Tiki Lounge. Fun little bar with a little Tiki theming. We had a good time sitting there and relaxing.

Sadly, the Don the Beachcomber at the Royal Lahaina is barely in use anymore. I think it's a holding pen for their luau. The building is still nifty looking on the outside though.

And I'd certainly recommend Mama's Fish House in Paia. Awesome atmosphere, food, service, and the best drinks we had on the island. Pricey but worth it, especially if you're celebrating something like a honeymoon. :)
