may • 2019 keiki cover model

Our May keiki cover girl is beautiful seven-year-old Zyrhelle Jhoelliane Savedra Mariano.

Mom is Hazelyn Savedra, guest relations coordinator, Ho‘olei at Grand Wailea, and dad is Renuel Mariano with Private Paradise Villas.

Zyrhelle attends Kahului Elementary School, and her favorite subjects are math, English, and recess (she loves the playground!)

Mom shares, “We taught our daughter to grow up with the Golden Rule ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ My child inspires me with her positive attitude; she wakes up every morning with a smile and sees everything as perfect. She reminds us what it is like to be happy with the simple things in life.”

kapalua casual + chic = the hideaway – montage kapalua bay’s new hidden gem

The west side of Maui has a perfect new “Hideaway,” which recently opened at the posh Montage Kapalua Bay. The newly renovated and reinvented space, serving dinner nightly, is both comfortable and casual with dark wood accents, tropical palms, and raffia details. Montage has set the stage for a modern meal where you can show up and don’t need reservations.

The Hideaway is located adjacent to their signature restaurant Cane & Canoe and you can enjoy dinner from 4:30-10pm nightly with live music from 6 to 9pm every evening.
