I'm not sure why people think this is a travel site. Trip advisor or Fodors is going to be travel oriented.

Unless of course you want to debate silly monarchy claims.

I really enjoy it when you make at least a mostly positive post like this!
Truth i would rather be doing culture and aloha type post and threads, but with underdog/native issues i just have to represent and stand up.

Can you tell now i was the kid in public school in Hawai'i who picked on da bullies?

How can you stand up and represent Native Hawaiians when you are not one?

Please, stick to the culture and aloha type posts like your previous one, minus calling OpenD and I "Talking Heads".

My friends fiancé proposed on Kauai in front of Wailua Falls. He had hired someone local to take pictures and she had no clue. They hiked out and then swam to a rocky area with the falls perfectly in the background. It was on the rocky area he proposed. The pictures are beautiful and she was definitely surprised!

I recently got a mailing from Costco offering a super good deal in a nice resort, plus a car for a very attractive price. I think it was Maui, which is a lovely island. It didn't include airfare and I've thrown the flyer away, but it is probably listed in their website.

We also preferred staying in vacation rentals instead of hotels prior to buying our own place. For us it was an easy choice.

The pro's:
-Better prices
-More space (living room)
-Kitchen (save $ making some of your own meals)
-Feels more like "living" there

The con:
-No maid to make your bed every day

As far as which island, you'll want to choose between Kauai, Oahu, Maui and Big Island (don't both with Molokai and Lanai as there is much less to do there.)

All the islands have their own charms, but as you might have guessed from my user name, I'm partial to Maui. Oahu has too much congerstion and "big city" for my taste and Kauai and the Big Island are a little too remote/sleepy. Maui has a nice blend of outdoorsy stuff, relaxed with more of the benefits of civlization like dining, shopping and a bit of night life.
