We decided to add glass blowing to our most recent Hawaii vacation and it exceeded every possible…read moreexpectation! I've been intrigued by Moana Glass for years and since we had an extended stay in Maui, I knew doing the glass blowing class and making our own glass sculpture was an activity that I was super interested in. It did not disappoint. First, upon check in, Dan was just awesome. Explaining to us the choices and options we had in front of us and carefully explaining how everything would work and what the process would be like. When it was time to start, we were introduced to our teacher, Yashu, and he was amazing. He was so patient with us and he walked us through each and every step, answered every question, and was just an exceptional teacher and person. We had an incredible experience and we're so proud of our new glass fish! This is truly a unique experience and I can't recommend the activity any higher, it was incredible and so much fun! Thank you, Dan, Ryan, Paul, and Yashu for this awesome adventure!

My wife and I stopped in here after lunch at the nearby Kula Bistro (yum!)…read more The owner and his dog greeted us as we rolled in. His son was blowing a bowl as we arrived. He cleared out a spot so we could watch from just a few feet away (even my wife in a wheelchair.) They explained what they were doing as we watched and seemed happy to share the experience. The owner even cleared us an easier path back to our car for my wife's wheelchair and offered us some bananas (growing on their trees) on the way out. The property is beautiful, owners friendly and their work is spectacular. And they make jewelry and ornaments, so even if your budget doesn't allow for a magnificent bowl, you can take home a piece of handmade art for the price of a couple of Maui cocktails.

Service: 4.5 stars Value: 3.5 stars…read moreAmbiance: 5 stars This is my favorite Maui Hands store - it's their largest size gallery, they have a cute small back patio area displaying larger outdoor art pieces, and it's way less crowded/busy than the other Maui Hands locations. Prices here are not low, but the quality of the items and art is much higher than, for example, many of the items at the Maui Swap Meet. If you're looking for a great statement piece for your home or a memorable high quality handmade souvenir, Maui Hands is the place to go. The staff is very helpful and is also able to ship if needed. Tip: there is no Kama'aina discount here.

They have been a mainstay on Front Street that should still be there. They do such great work and their temporary space while nice is a third of the space they need.

We had a great time looking at the new pieces and working on plans for a custom piece. If you want a great art piece as a memory of your Maui trip be sure to check them out!
