Survey: Visitors’ Experience on Maui has Improved Since Aug. 8 Wildfires
MauiNow: The latest Visitor Satisfaction and Activity Survey results show that visitors’ experience on Maui among US West and US East travelers have improved since the Aug. 8 wildfires, according to the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority. The percentage of visitors to Maui that rated their trip “excellent” was 89.8% from the US East, 86.3% from Europe, 86.2% from the US West, and 85.9% from Canada. Additionally, the percentage of visitors from these markets “very likely” to return to Maui in the next five years remained high: US West (71.5%), Canada (63.0%), and US East (59.0%).
Travelers from all markets who visited the island of Maui cited famous landmarks or imagery and natural beauty as their primary motivation to visit, followed by outdoor or sporting activities and events that take place on the island, according to the HTA.
“Working closely with the community, HTA is working diligently to educate travelers and encourage mindful visitation to Maui and the rest of the state through targeted branding efforts in our key markets,” said Daniel Nāho‘opi‘i, HTA interim president and CEO. “As you can see in our new US campaign — ‘The People. The Place. The Hawaiian Islands’ — it’s about visually sharing the natural landscapes and uniqueness of our islands by uplifting Hawai‘i’s musicians, lei makers, chefs, farmers, cultural practitioners, fashion designers, and more who rely on a thriving visitor industry.”
Overall, Hawai‘i continues to meet or exceed visitor expectations, according to the latest Visitor Satisfaction and Activity Survey, which surveyed visitors from the US West, US East, Canada, Japan, Europe, Oceania (Australia and Aotearoa), Korea, and China who visited the state from January through March 2024. Following resident sentiment, measuring visitor sentiment is one of the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority’s Key Performance Indicators, along with average daily visitor spending and total visitor spending.
