Plans changed from going to Lahaina and we ended up in Kehei.
It's my first time in Hawaii and any hints, tips and/or suggestions would be awesome.
I'm here with the wife and kids (6 and 9).
Just looking for some good beaches, restaurants, and cool shit in the area.
Thanks to all you guys who got in the Lahaina thread.

Kihei?
Ululanis Hawaiian Shave Ice and Coconut Fish Cafe were both really good and both places you can take the kids. 
Ululani's Hawaiian Shave Ice Is fantastic
Stewz burgers also very good.
Get surf lessons for you and the kids. Lahaina isn't that far and is a great day trip. There is a beach called baby beach near there that is really mellow for the kids.
I loved how you could walk around the stores and shops in shorts, flip-flops and sunglasses, while holding a beer, and no one cared.
Also, there is something rejuvenating about that place. I found myself getting up early for a run, and then kicking my shoes off for a swim every morning. I'd never do that in California.
Samoa - Kihei?Yeah Samoa Kihei. I'm a rookie here bro, sorry. Lol. You close? I'll buy beers one night.
Thanks boys. I'll get back in here with some VU's a little later.
Go to big beach and walk over the to little beach
I'm born and raised on maui make sure you eat at paia fish market
Paia fish market south side for sure for lunch/dinner.
Ululani's 4 sure...and sugar beach bakery right next to it.
Big Beach (Makena State Park). Keep your eye on the shorebreak though if u have little kids.
Also Kehei Canoe Club is right across the street from Ululani's in North Kihei. I think on Tuesday and Thursday mornings they'll take beginners out with them on outrigger canoes. A cool and fun experience if u never did it....

Fam bam
Stray... You just staying there or island hopping?
if you want to see amazing scenery, drive out to Kahakuloa. Very isolated (but safe) - try some of the fruits from guys selling out there - some of the sweetest pineapple with no bite
or, drive to Hana
careful on either drive though. roads can be a bit hairy near cliffs. after rains like they had recently, should see some epic waterfalls

Kinda had an epiphany a couple years ago about the whole family thing. We switched some things up started making memories.
Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I wrote them all out and am going to get to as many as possible.
Just got back from Costco and Target and heading to my parents condos for a steak dinner.
Heading to Big Beach tomorrow with snorkel gear and boogie boards.
This place is special.
VU's to all you guys.
