I'm getting airfare for a "good deal" through Alaska Air and their companion fares, but looking for a condo for a family of 5 through vrbo.com is crazy! I usually love planning vacations, but after looking for a week for the perfect condo, I am stuck...well I did find some but with hotel tax and cleaning fees, it's $4,000 for 7-8 nights. Yikes! This makes Disney seem cheap to me!! BUT, we've been talking about going to Hawaii for years, and next June is when we are going.
Just wondering if anyone has any advice. I want to be in the West side but only since I've read that it's less windy and has better swimming beaches and snorkelling which is pretty much what we want to do 90% of the time. So many condos don't have good swimming beaches. I've never been to Maui, but from what I've read, that's the place we should go if we are looking for swimming, snorkelling, first trips to Hawaii (I've been to Kona and Oahu, but my family have never been). Oh, and my girls want to surf and they are big time beginners.
Accept that Maui is expensive? Just need some advice.
Thanks!
