Luxury resorts, the world's largest extinct volcano and whale-watching make Maui an Hawaiian island favourite.

The second largest of the Hawaiian islands, Maui is also the second most popular with tourists and a favourite honeymoon haunt - and it's easy to see why. Known as the 'Valley Isle', there's a bewitching aura of romance and glamour. Famous for its spectacular sunsets and sunrises, Maui is skirted by 33 miles of beautiful beaches with Haleakala, the world's largest extinct volcano, as a backdrop. Seeing dawn break from the crater summit is a holiday highlight. Make sure you also take a helicopter tour for unforgettable views.

Along the slopes of Haleakala, meaning the House of the Sun, you discover everything from tropical rainforest to desert and the island's geographic diversity means there is a surprise around every corner.Mountains melt into central plains, strange lava formations change into rolling meadows and the coast jumps from dramatic sea cliffs to gently sloping sandy coves.

The holiday infrastructure is well developed in Maui. The luxurious resorts of Wailea and Makena are in the south while the popular Ka'anapali and Kapalua resorts are in the west, all boasting activities galore. Conditions are perfect for windsurfing (try Ho'okipa beach), snorkelling, surfing or just plain swimming. As most of the island is an untouched wilderness, there is also great hiking, biking or riding through tropical jungles, lava deserts, bamboo forests and picturesque mountain ranges. If you wanted to play some golf, there are more than 10 championship courses along the famed 'Golf Coast'.

One of the best ways to see Maui is by car - the winding road along the Hana Highway takes you past waterfalls and forested mountains and breathtaking panoramas. If you are visiting between November and April, be sure to take in the thousands of Pacific Humpback whales that congregate off the coast during their breeding season. Often voted by Conde Nast as the best Island in the world, it's no wonder Maui is a personal favourite with the staff at Bon Voyage.

Where you stay is the heart of your holiday. Location reigns supreme but do you prefer resort facilities or unique and boutique? Historic and old world or modern and shiny?

We aim to present choices across the spectrum but there are many hundreds of places to stay and not room to feature them all. Do speak to your Bon Voyage travel consultant and click the video for our take on this important topic.

We would rate the Bellagio as one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. Fabulous, glitzy, exciting. We loved having breakfast at the poolside café... one of our best experiences ever. If it hadn't been for you we wouldn't have had the suite or cabana and we loved them. We both agreed that the hotel was the best for us and you had suggested that so well done!
