There are only two hotels in Kahului, both of them on the budget end of the scale. Both are centrally located in Kahului not far from the airport and provide clean and comfortable accommodations, but if you're expecting amenities on the scale of properties in Kaanapali or Kihei, you will be sorely disappointed.

• Maui Beach Hotel, 170 Kaahumanu Avenue. Average price about $119 (as of 3/07).
• Maui Seaside Hotel, 100 Kaahumanu Avenue. Average price about $108 (as of 3/07). Clean, basic hotel on white sand beach.
