Greetings all. Just starting to think about a Hawaii vacation. I've been to Oahu a couple of times several years ago, not sure that's where I want to spend a week or so. I'd be flying (need to fly United) from Washington DC; haven't checked yet but i'd guess i'd need to fly via west coast to Honolulu and then beyond; i also know i can fly direct to Maui from ORD and west coast. Not sure when we'd be going; odds are good that it won't even be in calender 2011.
----any thoughts/experiences re good flight ideas?
----would love to hear about places to stay/eat anywhere in the islands. some of this process i'll have to decide what's easiest to get to, but it's early days for my thoughts.
----we think we want to stay on a beach. would prefer not to cook, don't think renting a condo is the right way for us to go. not sure how much of a "resort" place would make sense for us. we often avoid really big hotels, and for our travel often avoid kids (no, no, we don't dislike kids, it's just a thing for us when we're on vaca.
----we're not "budget travelers." willing to spend money when it's worth it.
So, any thoughts you'd be willing to share i'd really, really appreciate it. as I get into my research i'm also happy to report back on things i find that sound interesting. Really appreciate your help!
