If you were to pick one of these hotels, which would you choose?
These are our options for Christmast week. My first option would be Maui, but that's the only hotel not on the beach. This will be our first trip to Hawaii, hiking & beaches are the most important thing.
Courtyard Maui Kahului Airport - Maui
Courtyard Oahu North Shore - O'ahu
Courtyard King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel - Island of Hawai'i
Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa at Keauhou Bay - Island of Hawai'i
I haven’t stayed at any of these, but none of them appear to really stand out over each other so maybe just go with whatever island you want to go to? I haven’t been to the big island so I don’t have an opinion there, but out of Oahu Kaui, and Maui Oahu is my least favorite island. But - the Courtyard is on the North Shore which is the most beautiful part of Oahu so it has that going for it. I love Maui! But the airport isn’t really near any beaches so you will do quite a bit of time driving. But we like to explore the island anyway so we end up driving a lot anyway. It is on the way to Hana so you won’t have to drive quite as far if you are planning on doing that one day.
I don’t think I’m being very helpful! I guess if being close to your hotel for midday breaks is important to you then go Oahu, but if you think you will be out all day exploring anyway I would go Maui?
