honeymoon in maui
 
I am thinking of booking my honeymoon at the Ritz fo rthe end of June/July.
What is the weather like than? I have read that it rains alot in that area.
I dont want to be stuck in the rain for my honeymoon :)

No need to worry about rain anywhere on Maui in the summer.

It may rain occasionally, but no big deal.

If it rains in Kapalua, just drive south a few miles to Kaanapali beaches. They get a little less rain.

June/July is a very good time to be in the Kapalua area. Ideal time for a Ritz-Carlton honeymoon.

The windy and rainy weather is in the winter months. I can't guarantee you wouldn't have an occasional sprinkle, but it would be refreshing, rather than annoying.

Weather should be fine. My husband and I honeymooned in Maui in June, and it was fabulous! Enjoy!!

Maui has micro-climates. Where the Ritz is tends to be cooler and windier than Kaanapali and Wailea. Wailea tends to be hotter than Kaanapali. The advantage to the Ritz for a honeymoon is it is such a peaceful, quiet, tropical, scenic, beautiful area. Kaanapali and Wailea are more bustling with tourists and kids. So you need to decide what you want more: a peaceful tropical romantic environment with cooler weather or a bustling, less quiet, more touristy area with warmer weather. It's a personal choice.
