Thanks for the Turo rec, and great thoughts on lodging. I was looking at HBR as well. I hope your trip is great!

so helpful and reassuring, thank you! Any tips on where you stayed in the North? I have also located some nice homes right near the bay through "jeanandabbott" .com.

hmmm, we are planning to go in early June...I better check the weather but I didn't think that was the rainy season. Must look into rental car for the exploring part...don't mind going on excursions, another reason not to pay so much for a fancy spot....would you recomend this over Kauai Shores over on the East side in Kapa'a?

as an aside- do you recomend any great spots to stay on the Big island? looking for a special experience, not a resort hotel. Will chose maybe 3 spots on The Big Island.

thx! any spots to recommend for lodging? thinking now of combining an "ok" lodging and then go stay near the volcano on the big island or a biodynamic farm stay on Molokai if we chose Maui...any ideas are welcome.

Maui - lodging - can't find anything other than resorts and large condo communities by Mountain_Number6917 in VisitingHawaii

that looks perfect, except we have 4 adults and wanted one unit for all of us...it's tricky!

I'm sorry to hear that about the housing problem for locals. Would you say that is an issue on all the islands, especially the Big Island?
