Kauai 2009 Travel Planner - (Page 53) YOU’RE AT HOME ON KAUA‘I Deciding where to stay is key to your vacation experience. Many people think of opulent, luxury resorts when they think of Hawai‘i. If that’s your taste, Kaua‘i’s offerings stand tall alongside tropical resorts anywhere in the world. But Kaua‘i also offers wonderful alternatives for those who are looking for simplicity, more privacy, more independence and more local style. If that describes your Kaua‘i vacation, consider staying in a condominium rental, bed & breakfast or vacation rental home during your visit. These properties often offer more space and convenience. And they provide good value whether you are looking for a honeymoon hideaway or are traveling with a large party. BONITA R. CHESHIER You’ll find these more intimate lodgings all over Kaua‘i with a choice of beachfront, golf course and upcountry settings. Many come with kitchens and some provide maid service. If you’re traveling with a brood of beach lovers, search out a place with a washer/dryer. Deciding where to stay is key to your vacation experience. Check the options on these pages or in the directory of accommodations found at the back of this planner.
