Palauea is amongst my favorite Maui beaches! It's a gorgeous crescent of great sand, great water (just wade out past where the gentle shore break kick up the sand), and a nice amount of natural shade. The snorkeling is worthwhile on both ends, and it's usually relatively calm.
Palauea is just south of the main resort area of Wailea, and it's backed by only a few large houses. That makes it quieter than beaches further north, although you shouldn't expect complete privacy. If you're staying in Wailea but want to branch out past the more popular beaches along the beach path, Palauea would be a great place to start.
