The best snorkeling I have done anywhere is in the bay you get to through Napili Point condos. It is the inlet south of Napili Bay. It is better than Molokini. The condos next door to the north have a Gazebo that is open for breakfast and lunch. You have to eat there once. The lines are long, so unless you go early, make sure to use sunscreen while in line. Lahaina Coolers on Dickenson Street is also a must for breakfast. The Plantation in Kapalua is my favorite place in the world to eat. Brunch on the weekends is wonderful but dinner is not to be missed. Be there at sundown so you can enjoy the wonderfull view over the golf course towards the ocean, and still see the sunset. By the way, the best sunsets I have ever seen are from Napili. I can really feel the tension in my body dropping with the setting sun the first night there.
I envy you. The Northwest part of Maui is my favorite place on the planet so far. You need to be there for a month to even begin to see and do all there is. I have never been to upcountry. Skip the beach at Kaanipali. It is not a good place to enjoy the surf. But the Luau at the Hyatt was fun. The food is very good and the entertainment is nice with examples of dance from all over Polynesia. However, a luau is certainly not a necessary part of the trip unless you just can't help yourself.
