Did you have a good time in Hawaii? Would you convince me not to go?

Camping Hotels
mandi lala asked:

I am planning a mini vacation Feb 13th through the 16th to Hawaii. I plan on just booking the flight and not a hotel. I want to hike around the islands and stay in cheap hotels if i dont camp out.

    I never went to Hawaii… but I have seen quite a lot of it on tv. I would say: DonĀ“t go… give the ticket to me LOL :D

    I just passing on some information. You can only camp on camp grounds. Camping on the regular beach is illegal. Most of the hotels on Oahu are in Waikiki. Very few of them are cheap. If you really want to come here you need to spend money. The people of Hawaii need it.

    Hawaii?
    IS the best place on this earth, for an American, to visit.
    Every sunset? Is like a religious experience.
    Every day? Is like how the whole earth should be.
    You can live cheap, there, and do as you have suggested.
    Freedom, and Mahalo, is a way of life there.
    Whatever you do?
    If you choose to live your vacation, in the spirit of no clocks, and restrictions?
    You will want to visit any of the Islands other than Oahu.
    Oahu, is like a big city feel, with a beach.
    Try either the Big Island, Maui, or better yet? Molokai.
    Just be respectful of the locals, and be concerned for their ‘kapu’ (forbidden things) and be congenial.
    Most Hawaiians, are very friendly, yet we need to respect them, and their culture.
    They appreciate congeniality and respect, for their customs.
    Try and learn about their culture and customs before you go, and you should have a great time.
    Mahalo!

    I wouldn’t plan on camping unless you’re with a group, that you know.

    For the hotels, call after 6, that’s when they offer the best deals.

    Lots and lots of good hiking, too many places to list. Just getting to the trailheads will take some work and a little planning. Be sure you go early, wear sunscreen and plan on getting off the hill before sunset, to get back to town or wherever you are staying.

    Lots of free places to stay if you ask around. Watch out for Craigslist, some weirdos on there.
