Wailea or Kaanapali?
I have found great deals on condos in either place. We stayed in Kaanapali ( Sheraton) and really liked it, but I'm wondering if the beach is better for snorkeling/beauty in Wailea? Thanks for the help!!

Snorkeling at Black Rock (Sheraton) can be very good all day long. In our experience snorkeling in Wailea can be just as good however afternoon winds can make the waters cloudy with sand. I believe you may enjoy snorkeling in Wailea as well as in Kaanapali.

I had the same experience as JohnD with snorkeling being good in the morning at Wailea but with afternoon winds causing lower visibility in the water. However, that's a minor drawback compared to the beauty of the landscape and beaches there. Both Kaanapali and Wailea are gorgeous places for a vacation but the latter is a little quieter with less of the "hustle-bustle" of the former.
