Cockroaches!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 4/20/09
Yes, I know Hawaii has cockroaches. BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN YOUR HOTEL BED!!! And this one was giant, almost two inches. We saw one of his smaller friends earlier on the curtain, and who knows how many more of their buddies were lurking around. Needless to say, we got the hell out of there. The last thing I needed was some cockroach imbedding itself in my ear canal. We slept in our rental car that night, which was more preferable than sleeping with cockroaches.
Oh, the hotel, don't stay there, don't even stay in Kahului. Aside from the rather awesome movie theater, there is really nothing there except big box stores. We ended up in Lahaina and loved every minute of it. A really authentic experience over there, with great restaurants and shops, and tons of local artists. And, of course, awesome beaches. It turned out to be a really fabulous trip.
Don't let the Maui Seaside Hotel ruin your trip!
