Discover the Unaffected Wonders of Maui: Travel & Real Estate Guide by Gray Marino

A Personal Welcome to Maui, the Island of Resilience

Aloha and thank you for visiting my blog! If this is your first time here, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Gray Marino, and I relocated to the breathtaking island of Maui in 2015 with just a suitcase and my cherished dive gear. Raised in Florida, I had always been enamored by Hawaii's allure. When the opportunity to make Maui my home presented itself, I didn't hesitate—and I haven’t looked back since.

I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude and love for this island and the close-knit community that defines it. Known as Mother Maui to many of us, this captivating place has a way of embracing everyone with its spirit of Aloha and a sense of 'Ohana. We are Maui Strong, a sentiment solidified as we came together after the recent heartbreaking fires. What could add even more to this community? Possibly you—a prospective visitor or even a new member of our island family.

Maui Awaits Your Support

You may think that delaying your trip to Maui is a sign of respect during trying times like these. While the intent is honorable, it's essential to remember that the island's livelihood largely depends on tourism. The absence of visitors impacts thousands of jobs connected to travel and hospitality sectors—people who need to support their families.

Reasons to Choose Maui Now

Setting aside the fire-affected Lahaina region, Maui remains a pulsating and versatile travel destination. In fact, there's never been a more pivotal time to venture beyond the well-trodden paths and explore other parts of the island. This blog aims to highlight an array of activities and experiences that contribute to local businesses and communities.
