Planning a family vacation this year? How about visiting the Hawaiian Islands? The cost can be rather expensive, but there are deals available out there so you can have some fun for less. Exhaust all your options to find the best deal.
Several sites on the Internet are dedicated to offering travel deals to customers. Before you go to the airline websites, check out Orbitz, Travelocity, Priceline, and Expedia. These sites offer deals on airfare, hotel accommodations, and rental cars. When you decide on the dates for travel, plug them into the search parameters on each website to see what they have to make the trip less of a financial drain.
At Priceline.com, folks looking for good prices on their travel can bid on fares. Let them know what you are looking for and how much you are willing to pay. Continue to check back to the site for deals or have them email you when something comes up in your price range.
In addition to Priceline.com, shoppers can look for airfare and hotel deals at travel auctions. Travel actions allow customers to save money by outbidding other shoppers. You can check the listings for airfare and hotel packages, deals on rental cars, timeshares, B &B’s, and other trip particulars. You can come across deals from the simple to the very unique.
Each site has their rules about membership and bidding, so read the fine print. Some, like Luxury Link are free to join, but you must be a member in order to bid on travel deals. People that want a premium luxury accommodations and airfare for less can find it here.
There is more than one type of auction. In single auctions, the highest bidder is the one that wins the deal or whatever you are bidding for. Then there are Best Shot auctions. Here, more than one of the same item is up for bid. The winners are those that come in with the highest bid. Then each bidder that wins pays the lowest of the winning bids.
A Dutch auction is similar to the Best Shot auction. When more than one of the same item is up for bid, the two highest winners get the items but only pay the lowest price of the day for that item. This means that the winner who bid the lowest price sets the price for both winners.
Travel auctions are worth looking into but be careful. If the deal sounds or looks to good to be true on paper, it probably is. There are many unscrupulous people out there who want your money. Read the fine print so you don’t’ get taken for a ride by a cheat.
Hotels on the islands can be pretty expensive. If price is not the object but amenities, here are some suggestions for hotels to check out. On the island of Maui, there is the Grand Wailea hotel. This establishment is not for people without deep pockets. The prices start at $575 per night and can run as high as $3,200. For a modest hotel with great service, go to the Mana Kai hotel or the Napili Surf. The former runs around $133 per night, while the latter offers rooms for $94 a night.
Prices on Kauai are in the same range and higher for premium accommodations. The Princeville Resort will serve you with style for a mere $565 to $5,500. The Hyatt is a bit more reasonable with rooms starting at $430. For families, the Kaua’i Palms Hotel has rooms for $65 a night. Perfect for those who don’t want to break the bank with their hotel bill.
The Big Island has some great choices for those travelers. Choose from the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel with prices starting at $306 a night. There is a private beach as a perk of your stay. The Royal Kona Resort offers rooms near the shopping district for $85 a night. To save money, vacationers can always book a hotel room on one Hawaiian Island and island hop for day trips.

Unless you Cruise, Hawaii doesn't have any all inclusive resorts – but of course you can always find a good deal for hotel etc… through a corporate travel broker. They have rock bottom package deals like 2 adults for $400 for 5 days at a really nice 4 star hotel.
Sometimes they also have 2 for 1 airfare deals. You can check out a reliable broker at the site below – I have used them before & had a great time! I didn't Cruise, I only got the hotel deal but it was great if you're looking to save $! Aloha
you could go to AAA, Expedia or Travelocity. I just booked my trip to Cancun and compare pricing between the three sites, the best fares I could find was on Travelocity.

I am of the school of thought that if you want a generic package where you get what they have to offer and nothing else at an inflated price, then a website is the answer. If you want something specific, then you get in contact with a Travel Agent.
When you contact a Travel Agent, do not hesitate to ask for something specific as there's a very good chance that it can be granted. TRAVEL WITH STEPHEN is a very good Travel Agency, because they offer very good customer service, and the prices for most of their Travel are very reasonable.

You don't need to use a travel agent, you can easily set up a honeymoon on your own (try Pleasant Hawaiian vacations, the top booking site). However using a travel agent might make you feel better that everything is taken care of on such an important time in your life. That being said, Hawaii is very tourist friendly and visiting is about as easy as it gets. Don't visit Oahu first if you have never been to Hawaii (and it sound like you haven't). Visit Maui instead, it's a little quieter and much less crowded. It's the top Honeymoon destination for a reason. Tons to do and see, it's much more like what you picture in your head. Oahu (where my sister lives and I visit every year) is home to 400,000 person strong Honolulu and tourist mecca Waikiki. Don't get me wrong, Oahu is a wonderful island and a great visit but it's not what you are looking for.
I would look for hotels in either Kaanapali, Kapalua or Wailea areas. I've stayed at all three and Kapalua is best, Kaanapali is a very close second. Wailea is a bit too far away from many of the sights for my taste, better to visit that area than stay there. You can't beat the Sheraton at Kaanapali or the new Westin just north of it. However all of the major hotels in that area are very nice.
