Where to stay in Hawaii

Working out where to stay in Hawaii is all part of the holiday fun, with each major island offering an array of accommodation options. If you’re after a cosmopolitan vibrancy, Waikiki is one of the best places to stay in Hawaii. There's a lot more to choose from beyond this famous beach, with the island of Oahu presenting plenty of accommodation options too. If luxury is the priority, Maui gives you five-star resorts with a laidback feel. The Big Island’s accommodation centres around the major tourism destination of Kailua-Kona and the volcanic area of Hilo. Kauai Island also has accommodation for every budget, depending on where you'd like to stay.

Frequently asked questions

How many days in Hawaii is enough?

Well this depends on how many islands you hope to see. If you are content sticking to Oahu and the main sites of Honolulu and Waikiki, you could do the island in as little as three days, but what’s the rush? Take a hike (literally), learn to surf, go snorkelling; eat your body weight in poké. You could easily (and happily) spend weeks exploring the islands of Hawaii.


What to take on vacation to Hawaii?

Hawaii is the kind of place you can arrive with an empty suitcase and open itinerary and fill both quickly. If you’re not pumped about spending your vacation shopping, pack lightweight clothing, a rain jacket for those unpredictable showers, comfortable shoes and swimmers. It would be rude not to wear a Hawaiian shirt at least once, when in Rome, right? If you’re planning on doing some snorkelling, consider packing a pair of reef shoes as some of the coral and rocks can be sharp.


Where to go on vacation in Hawaii?

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to a Hawaii vacation. Where to go and how to fill your days varies wildly from person to person depending on their interests. As a general guide, the island of Oahu is the most popular for tourists and is where you will find many of Hawaii’s main attractions. Maui and the Big Island are great all-rounders with family-friendly options, beautiful beaches, hiking trails, snorkelling and restaurants. For those that love to get off the beaten track, Kauai is your place.

What is the best island to visit in Hawaii for the first time?

You could ask this question of ten different people and everyone would have a different response. The island of Oahu is certainly the most popular for tourists, and is where you will find many of Hawaii’s main attractions. The island is geared towards tourism, so naturally it makes for a pretty easy vacation. If, however, you like to go beyond the brochure, the island of Maui is a great option as it is family friendly, offers plenty of beaches, hiking trails, snorkelling and dining options. Big Island is a great all-rounder and, if you’re really keen to reconnect with nature, consider Kauai.


When is the best time to visit Hawaii?

Hawaii is blessed with year-round sunshine, so there’s really no bad time to visit. December, January and February are the busiest months for travel, however they also coincide with Hawaii’s rainy season (November to March), although they are usually just passing showers. Between March and September are ideal for balmy sun-drenched days and blissful island evenings.


What is there to do in Hawaii?

Soak in some ‘vitamin sea’ on one of Hawaii’s many stretches of sand, visit the Pearl Harbour Memorial, ride around Kualoa Ranch, lace up your hiking boots to explore Diamond Head Crater, snorkel around the Molokini Crater, chase waterfalls in Na Pali Coast, celebrate Hawaiian culture at a luau or try your hand at crafting at the Polynesian Cultural Centre. Explore the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, embark upon a self-guided museum tour, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
