I went to Maui and the Big Island for my honeymoon a few years back. It was absolutely beautiful. Maui was much better IMO. We spent most of our time in Lahaina, the restaurants were excellent and not at all what I expected. Everything is open of course so you always feel like you are sitting outside.
People warned us about how expensive everything was, but honestly the prices were similar to here (Michigan). Beer and drinks were all the same price.
One of the best things we did while there was go on a bike trip down Haleakala volcano. If you can find a similar thing I'd recommend it.
Also, don't forget a luau. I think we paid $90 a person, but that included free drinks, an all you can eat feast with incredible food and an awesome show.
Honolulu, Oahu is much more developed from what I have heard. I'm sure it still has the same kind of things as Maui though.
Have fun on your trip!
Edit: Oh and some of the best things we did involved just driving around and exploring. There were tons of places to stop and walk through the jungle to some waterfall or other site. Walking along and sitting by the ocean at night too was awesome. I was surprised how much we enjoyed watching sea life. Sounds stupid, but we had such an awesome time.
One resort we stayed at had a balcony built over top the shore line. Looking down we could see eels, turtles, fish etc. I think we sat one night with drinks watching an eel eat fish for about 6 hours.
