Alright...I need some real opinions because Im going in circles.
I’m planning a trip with my wife, my mom, and our kids (6 yrs, 4 yrs, and a baby - 8 months). I’ve been to Oahu/Honolulu two times already (First time with my wife in 2019, and then one more time with friends) and I know exactly what I’m getting; Waikiki is easy and the downtown spot is fun, walkable, tons of food, beaches are right there, and other beaches are great.
Now I’m looking at Maui (Kaanapali area), and the price is basically the same as Oahu. On one hand, Im thinking that I already know Oahu is fun and will probably be easier with kids. On the other hand, we've never been to Maui and I feel like I should try something new.
What would you do in my situation? Stick with Oahu because it’s guaranteed fun or try Maui because it's something new?
/EDIT - Thanks everyone for their recommendation. I ended up booking the trip to Oahu.
