Vacation Rentals in Hawaii

Hawaii is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean within the Polynesian range of islands. The seven islands of Big Island, Oahu, Kaui, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Niihau and Kahoolawe are all accessible via boat and plane, with the international airport located on the island of Oahu. There are many tours and cruises available between the islands to help you explore the natural beauty and historic sites. Having a rental car is convenient, as cities and rental homes can be spread out and public transportation can be very unreliable.

For those traveling with children, the Honolulu Bay on Oahu has the best calm beaches and kid-friendly cafes to keep little kids busy, safe, and having fun. Visit the nearby Aloha Stadium for an afternoon stroll where you can shop for unique souvenirs while sipping on freshly cracked coconut juice!

Kauai is the perfect destination for hiking-enthusiasts, with many trails and breathtaking ocean views to take in. In a rental car, you will also be able to take one of the most scenic drives in Hawaii on the Holo Holo Koloa Scenic Byway.

Surfers will love the North Shore city of Hale'iwa, where many professional surfers have started their career. Some of the most famous surfing competitions are still held here at several beaches along the North Shore in November.

A trip to Honolulu wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Pearl Harbor memorial site. It is here that in December 1941 the Japanese attacked the US Military base, prompting America's entrance into World War 2. Take a ferry out to see the sunken ships and pay tribute to the dark history of Hawaii's capital.

The Hanauma Bay Nature Reserve on Oahu is a great place to visit for snorkelers and divers. There are many coral reefs, colorful fish, and even wild sea turtles to swim beside within the calm waters of the bay. The Reserve is also within an easy reach from the nearby capital Honolulu for a nice day trip with the family outside of the city.

In Laie on the North Shore of Oahu, the Polyneisian Cultural Center is a great place to learn about Pacific Island Culture. There are many cultural dance performances, recreated villages, and crafts to learn first -hand about the ancient people of Hawaii.

The Dole Plantation in Wahiawa is the perfect pit-stop between Honolulu and the North Shore for grabbing a bite of fresh pineapple. Tour the active pineapple farm, pick up some interesting souvenirs, and try some interesting pineapple concoctions.

For the truly athletic, hike up to the imposing mountain of Diamond Head which overlooks Honolulu Bay. Though only 3 miles, this hike is a pretty steep trek and is not for the faint of heart. However, the views from the top are worth the extra effort when it comes to getting the best Hawaiian selfie.
