We often acquire requests to recommend lgbtq+ friendly hotels on Maui to wedding couples, and are glad to perform so. All of the hotels/condos listed below are in the Southwest Maui area (Kihei, Wailea) where there are nicer beaches, it is less &#;touristy&#; and drier with less of a chance for rain on your wedding day.
For accommodations near the airport, nice beaches, adjacent to waterfalls, activities, etc, see hundreds of vacation rentals at
VRBO and Airbnb include hundreds of condos in Kihei, Wailea, Ma&#;alaea. Scroll down for hotel recommendations.
Located in this area are 5 championship golf courses, fantastic restaurants, activities, and great shopping! Southwest Maui beaches are the nicest, wider and way less crowded.
Southwest Maui is closer to: our must-see 10, dormant foot volcano, quaint mountain villages, our spectacular waterfalls, and closer to the airport. You can have your ceremony on the beach in front of any of these hotels and condos, or see our location page for our favorite Maui wedding locations. Please note South Maui receives 9&#; of rain p

Maui LGBTQ Visitor Guide
With the December passing of the Hawaii Marriage Equality Act, Maui is now not only a top honeymoon destination but a top wedding destination for the LGBTQ community. Thanks in massive part to the 81 beautiful beaches, stunningly picturesque views, endless romantic activities, and top-notch accommodations, it&#;s not surprising that so many couples choose to say &#;I Do&#; on the Valley Isle.

Maui is a very gay-friendly island. There are many gays and lesbians that live and perform here. Some of Hawaii&#;s leading and most respected entertainers, and cultural leaders live on Maui and are homosexual and lesbian.
Although Maui is rural compared to the enormous bustling city of Honolulu on Oahu, there is tradition and arts, clubs, and of course our world well-known gay beach called “Little Beach” .

Gay Maui
Maui, the second largest of the Hawaiian Islands with a land area of square miles, is thought to be the most scenic. From the top of 10,foot Mt. Haleakala the views, especially at sunrise and sunset, are stunning. There are waterfalls, lush tropical foliage, rough surf below step rocky cliffs, sandy beaches, and quaint old towns to be found in this in this year-round warm and sunny climate. Lahaina was a residence for Maui's high chiefs and first capital of the Kingdom, before becoming a rowdy whaling port, and then a plantation settlement.
The gay population, second only to that on Oahu, is mainly concentrated around the Kihei area in South Maui, but gay people live all over the island. Gay vacationers, singles or couples, often return to the island every year. They come to enjoy the astonishing beauty of the place, rather than for the high strength parties or heavy cruising to be found in big cities and major resorts. See our Honolulu pages for the nearest gay bar/bathhouse scene.
