So many other places that beat Hawaii in terms of pricing; Hawaii is a runned down tourist destination still charging a premium price……but not worth it anymore.
I respectfully disagree, though I would agree that if one is looking to stretch their vacation dollar for sun and sand, then Mexico has better options.

Hawaii is unique. Any vacationer who does not appreciate its uniqueness would be wise to holiday elsewhere.
