Aloha sweeties! I'm sorry for being a little MIA lately, but you've probably seen me spamming on Instagram and other social media about my quality time with the hubby in Hawaii, aka paradise on earth. We went on the most romantic and magical trip to the island of Maui, which features the most beautiful beaches, rainforest and waterfalls in Hawaii. It's also known as the perfect island for couples, and as this was our first real holiday together in 2 years, we couldn't have picked a better place.
We stayed at the most amazing hotel in Wailea, Andaz Maui. I absolutely loved this place! It has a trendy but tropical kind of feeling, and features the prettiest infinity pool I've ever seen.
We had so much fun, created so many memories, and did such exciting things, that it was literally impossible for me to share all this with you guys in just one post.
So without further ado, here's part one of our magical Maui adventure.

When you arrive in Hawaii, you are offered one of those amazing fresh flower necklaces. I absolutely loved that, it's such a typical Hawaiian tradition that makes you feel so welcome and gets you into the island vibe!

The Mai Tai cocktail is one of the traditional Hawaiian drinks. It's a rum based cocktail with Curaçao liqueur, orgeat syrup and lime juice. It's so good I drank one every day while I was there! Oops...

You can never go wrong with a cute white cover-up dress. When shopping for swimwear cover-ups, make sure you're looking at light, flowy fabrics. Trust me, you don't want tight dresses in a humid climate like Hawaii!

We went on an amazing day trip exploring the famous Road to Hana. We hiked through the rainforest, walked on the Black Sand Beach and swam in a gigantic waterfall. Small downside of the day was that we forgot to use bugspray, so the hubby and I got covered in mosquito bites. Auch!

Hawaiian sunsets are said to be among the prettiest on earth. I feel so blessed that I could enjoy them with my love on this amazing trip.
Missing this magical place already, we'll definitely go back.
Thank you and Mahalo Maui.
