Are there any other options?
I think it depends on how much you are going to leave the immediate area around wailea and kihei. While not super plentiful, there are ubers to take you into kihei or to other resorts/restaurants in wailea. If you want to head further afield, then the convenience of having a car may be worth it. $700 seems like it would pay for a lot of ubers though, even one or two trips up to Lahania (which the google says is around $50 each way). I think the Road to Hana may be the tie breaker. if you;'re going to do it, then it may justify the car.
