What gifts can I give my friends from Hawaii?
Q. I am going to Hawaii and want to give back some free or inexpensive gifts for my friends. Any ideas? I would really like to give someone a ukulale, about how much would that cost?
A. Head over to Hilo Hatties. You'll find some great gifts at reasonable prices AND you won't find yourself overcharged for them like you would in Waikiki. There is a free shuttle from most Waikiki hotels so you wouldn't even have to pay for parking or a rental car to get there.
Another option would be to spend some time at the Swap Meet at Aloha Stadium. It's a large open air market but you'll find some good deals if you're willing to walk around and take the time.
Happy hunting and happy travels!

What is a good gift for a new born baby?
Q. My friends way out in Hawaii are having their first baby on or about August 20th. I guess I would like the opionion of mothers. What do you wish people would have given you or given you more of for your newborn baby. I will be shipping from New York City so suggestions that are easy to mail are helpful. Do they need lots of new born pajama outfits? I could send a bunch of those. But a baby carriage is a little out of my leaque. Thanks to all the mom's who are going to help me with this!
A. it sounds impersonal and some people get all up in a tizzy but gift cards are the best.
Parents, especially new parents have an idea of what they need but things are always forgotten and then it is a mad dash to the store to pick up whatever it may be.
I would mail them a worthwhile gift card. Worthwhile meaning more than 10 - 15 dollars.
If you go this route you can also add your saved shipping costs onto the gift card..an envelope and stamp would be all that is necessary.

Where is the best place to stay for a Honeymoon in Hawaii?
Q. Can someone give me great options of things and expenses because we are planning on staying there for 8 days and I have no idea; every place looks great??? So from a little bit expensive stay and from a less expensive stay what am I looking at and what is great to experience over there.
A. Aloha from Maui,
Jeff it sounds like you are just at the beginning phase of planning your honeymoon.
There are lots of great hotels, resorts and condos here in Hawaii. The key is what is important to YOU and your fiance'e.
For example:
Do you want a condo or a hotel/resort?
Do you plan on sitting by the pool sipping tropical drinks or are you the type of person who is on the move and wants to do and see everything?
What type of view type are you looking for? Ocean view? Ocean front or the least expensive available?
What kind of vehicle will you be needing? A SUV, convertible or an economy car?
What are you allowing for your travel budget? Don't include meals and tours in this total. You can always figure that total out closer to your travel dates. Plus you will be generally getting money from family and friends in the way of a wedding gift. You can use that money for the "fun" stuff such as a zip line tour, or a luau.
What time of year will you be coming to Hawaii?
Will it be our "peak" travel times? If so, then you will want to start planning asap.
As a travel agent who specializes in honeymoons and destination wedding travel packages I see a big spike in business after Christmas. That is because many couples get engaged during the holidays and then are excited to get their travel plans confirmed for the upcoming year.
This means prices can JUMP in just a few days. I have seen airfare prices go up $100 per ticket in 5 minutes just because the lower price booked up that fast.

I will include the link below.
Have a great time while you are here in Hawaii and congradulations on your recent engagement.
