Wow Treg, good for you, Mama's Fish House in Paia town has awesome grinds. The decor inside is Hawaiian/nautical. The site is spectacular and there"s tiki to be seen on the property if you can take your eyes off the surroundings. The drinks are okay but who cares- you're at Mama's Also spectacular is the road to Hana. Hana town is old school Hawaii and really away from the crowd. The road starts at Paia and it is only 60 miles west to Hana. Because the road is winding and narrow and the numerous bridges are one-way, it takes about 3 hours to get to Hana. Don't try the round trip after 1 pm or you will be driving back in the dark. Lunch is a better deal at Mamas but go easy on the drinks if you decide to visit Hana. You gotta come back the same way so the bar at Mamas is very inviting. Back in the day it was quicker to get to Hana via boat from the big island than to motor from Paia. It's sorta like taking hi-way One through Big Sur Beautiful but a lonnnnnng drive.
Kaanapali on the other side of Lahaina has a lot to offer including awesome snorkeling among the reefs. Google Maui and you"ll get plenny ideas.
Have fun,
David
