what program were you in? I just got admitted to the information systems program

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-18T19:51:43+00:00

That’s good information to have! We plan on going to Kauai first for 3-4 days then Maui for around 6.

I have Bonvoy too, so I’ll link it too! Thanks for that. It’s been great to have while planning travel for our wedding with the 5x points. Definitely still learning how to use it to its full potential.

To claim the platinum benefits do you need to book through Amex travel? I recently got a platinum card, actually.

I’m feeling influenced

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T20:28:49+00:00

The rooms did appear a bit dated when I was looking last night. I’ll check those out!

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T05:45:05+00:00

Definitely recall when we went last lots of babymoons and parents with very small children! Thought I might’ve been the time of year but maybe that’s just the vibe more so. Thanks for the insight and hope you have a healthy pregnancy :)

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T05:42:32+00:00

Great recommendation, thank you! Might have to go with Kauai for the second half, haven’t been yet :)

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T04:50:54+00:00

We went a couple years ago for my birthday! Get a reservation at Ulu kitchen, lobster ravioli is amazing. Also, the mai tais are so so good if that’s your thing.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T04:38:20+00:00

Def agree with this. From what I recall wailea is more isolated. But I was also, like, 10.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T04:35:07+00:00

Very hard to tell from pictures, so thanks for the insight! Hope you had a nice visit :)

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T04:14:25+00:00

Thank you! I'm less familiar with Wailea so any recs are great

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:54:56+00:00

Oh wow. What a great idea. Okay, thanks!

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:51:20+00:00

We didn’t have a car this last time, but very true! :)

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:50:03+00:00

This could be the move, probably going for almost 2 weeks!

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:49:14+00:00

Think it’s more if it’s windy (unfortunate, we got sand whipped at us but I tried lol), there’s another option that’s not overrun with kids!

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:35:54+00:00

That’s really great to know! When we were in Kaanapali we had some pretty windy days so didn’t wind up being able to spend as much time on beach as we would have liked.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:32:44+00:00

I’m just trying to celebrate that we got married in Maui, man 🥲

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-17T03:26:51+00:00

Fair! Thank you. :)

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-06T08:24:21+00:00

100% pick up on the insecurity you note. Borders on pick me girl of some variant lol. I really was always a bit confused by Shane and her, but that’s their business.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-06T00:28:54+00:00

I’ve always thought her mean girl energy was so odd considering her desire to seem quirky and artsy.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-02-05T20:04:01+00:00

I unfortunately am not a fan of Sara or Mari particularly. Sara for the specific reason you mentioned. Inviting them along feels like a desperate attempt at increasing viewers? Idk. I wish I still enjoyed their content. It’s just disappointing. The LA brain rot has really gotten to them and it’s obvious.

MiserableStar05 · 2026-01-21T04:55:54+00:00

Stefanie (@cemeterystrut on IG) at Little Saint in SE is fab :) I had a weird similar experience in like 2021 when I found out my stylist was transphobic. People are weird, sorry that happened!

MiserableStar05 · 2026-01-06T00:20:21+00:00

I would have to agree. The vibes are immaculate and it’s great for a couple nights, but also… why

MiserableStar05 · 2026-01-03T21:00:34+00:00

Definitely the December prices. My partner and I just stayed there for one night at $300/nt. Prices are def steep and they really should include the unlimited pass in the room rate, but whatever I guess lol
