I enjoyed every minute of our 2 week vacation to Oahu. We spent every possible minute exploring all the beauty the island had to offer. Before our visit I was worried because of all the complaints about the traffic I'd read on this board. However, I didn't find it nearly as bad as the traffic in most Northeast cities. The Bus is the ...

Honolulu (waikiki) Is beautiful clean city, however there were just way too many people in a small area. H-1 (the main highway) was bumper to bumper traffic wich caused long delays. Not very fun when you are in paradise. We had the most beautiful weather. The people for the most part were very friendly. If you want the full effects of Hawaii I would reccomend Maui!

I liked Honolulu so much I just moved here! If you want to appreciate all Hawaii has to offer spend a few days in Honolulu before rushing to a quiet island. If you can, stay at the Kahala Mandarin Oriental for a great calm beach or at The Halekulani for the Waikiki experience. Immediately adorn good Aloha attire and head outdoors.

Aside from ...

My wife and I had never been to Hawaii before. We are both in our early 40's and after years of hearing stories from friends and family who had gone, we finally decided to go. We looked through all the Hawaii travel books in the book store and picked a few things out that we thought we'd like to do. There was one particular tour we did ...

The hilton resort was way overpriced. There were children in all pool areas. Food at most resturants was hit and miss. Did not find a lot of couple adventures or dinign experiences. Overall it was very expensive and experiences were average. Could not go swimming in the ocean due to a recent sewage spill that contaminated the water.

Love the islands. Visit about every two years. The one thing that has always surprised me about Hawaii is the lack of fresh brewed iced tea, especially SWEET iced tea, or REAL iced tea in general. You can go to only a handful of restaurants or cafe's where you can order true fresh tea. Most you have to sweeten yourself, or it's the kind ...

I went to Oahu and Kauai last June. It was great! There was a lot to do on both islands, but the only problem is you have to book most activities in advance. We tried to attend a luau, but they were completely booked for the whole two weeks we were there, along with the scuba trips and ziplines. The only thing that was available was Kauai ATV. We ...
