Dreamy HawaiiBest of IgoUgo

Overview

Hawaii is the ideal destination for sun, sea, and ease. At the same time there are many natural features to visit. Standards are high in the shops and restaurants as one would expect from the USA. It is a water sports paradise.

Quick Tips:

Take plenty of sun blocker and remember most things have to brought in from the mainland, so food prices tend to be more expensive than on mainland USA.

Best Way To Get Around:

A car is essential. Allow plenty of time to leave Honolulu airport--the security arrangements are inefficient and the staff very officious.
Best Things Nearby:
There was a golf course on-site together with a supermarket, bank, petrol station, and all necessary local services. Wonderful secluded sandy bays were within twenty minjutes drive, ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing.

Best Things About the Resort:
The accommodation was very spacious and to a good standard, the staff were most helpful and efficient. The unit was well maintained.

Resort Experience:
Overall we had an excellent holiday, all that we had dreamed off. The weather was perfect and there were plenty of places to visit. Hawaii is a place of paradise and our timeshare unit made an ideal base for sightseeing and for simply lazing on the sands. The scenery is stunning with wide green fertile land contrasting with wild volcanic lava fields. We spent most of our time out, so did not make much use of the on-site activities.
