No suggestions but I have a pair of flippers and anti-fog spray for sale for $15 together if you're thinking of going snorkelling!

Great place for breakfast is the 5 Palms. It's right before you enter Wailea on South Kihei Road. Their Hawaiian sweet bread French toast is insane. You can sit outside on a beautiful beach
if you're into cycling at all the West Maui Loop is incredible

Waih'ee Ridge Trail is a beautiful hike. So is the hike through the Bamboo Forest to a waterfall at the 7 Sacred Pools (at the end of the Road to Hana).

So jealous, no matter what you do you will be in paradise. Soak in all the serenity Maui has to offer. The best thing also is the whales, but not sure if they are there yet, if they are you are in for a treat. You can just sit on the beaches and watch them

Oh my, if you like a regular, non-fancy, delicious, somewhat inexpensive breakfast you should try the Kihei Cafe. You have to get there early but it is oh so worth it! So good.

Yessss!! Makena Beach, we used to layover there, I don't know whether the hotel is still there (there was talk about tearing it down for condos)
But if the hotel is still there, beautiful grounds, private beach, snorkelling and the rooms and lanais are large as it is an older hotel. Golf courses and the famous Wailea Shopping Centre 5 minutes away.
The Maui Prince Makena beach and golf resort.
