Hawaii Beach Vacations
When planning a romantic vacation getaway to Hawaii, the first thing to decide is whether you want a secluded getaway or a trip that includes shopping and people watching on the beach.
The least crowded of all Hawaiian islands is Molokai. The Lodge at Molokai Ranch on West Molokai is close to the airport and offers scenic views of the island because it's located on a hill above the ocean. The ranch measures 65,000 acres in size and offers outdoor vacation activities such as horseback riding, 3D archery, clay shooting, hiking and mountain biking. The island of Molokai is home to numerous secluded beaches, ideal for romantic picnic lunches.
For best nightlife, a choice of restaurants and people watching, visit Waikiki Beach on Oahu. The Royal Hawaiian hotel, also known as the Pink Palace because of its pink facade and interior decor, and Halekulani are popular with honeymooners and couples looking for romance.
Hawaiian Islands with the Family
The Hawaiian islands are very nice for families - there are many sandy beaches, spas, golf courses and resorts with programs especially for kids.
On the Big Island of Hawaii, the Mauna Kea Resort is home to two hotels - Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel and Mauna Kea Beach Hotel. The resort offers golf, tennis and a children's program. Popular watersports include snorkeling, scuba diving, outrigger canoe paddling, sailing, kayaking and catamaran rides.
For families who like to visit museums, aquariums and historic attractions, hotels on Waikiki Beach offer rooms for all budgets.
Two large Hilton resorts feature golf, spas and programs for the whole family. Hilton Waikoloa Village is located on the Big Island and Hilton Hawaiian Village on Oahu.
Adventure Vacation
Adventure vacation ideas in Hawaii range from scuba diving and kayaking to mountain biking down Haleakala and hiking in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
Many vacationers rise early to watch the sunrise at 10,000 feet in Haleakala National park. If you are up for it, adventure companies offer mountain biking down the slopes of Haleakala right after the sunrise.
