I also turned 40 in Hawaii, however I was on the island of Kauai. Well, I have heard that the only all-inclusive in Hawaii is on the Big Island . . . I would suggest checking out vrbo.com - you will find many excellent places to stay that probably fit your budget better. Don%26#39;t hesitate to mention it%26#39;s your birthday when you get there. I got a free upgrade on my car and also free dessert for that special day. I can%26#39;t think of a better place to make some wonderful 40th birthday memories - hope you have a great time! :)

Kona Village Resort is the only all inclusive I am aware of in all of Hawaii (it is on the Big Island).

Cheapest rate for one week - $4,410.

The reason there are not more is that Hawaii is not like the Caribean or Mexico, you really do NOT want to just stay in the resort and miss everything there is to see and do.

We are staying at the Lahaina Shores Beach Resort in July. The rates for a ocean view studio are very reasonible. Large lania close to the water. Looks wonderful and can hardly wait to go. Check them out.

Try the various condo%26#39;s in Napali. They have always sounded good to me.

Happy 40th to you both! That was a fun one.

Many great T.A. people have suggested www.vrbo.com (vacatin rentals by owner) if you want a condo at a good rate. I have not used this myself but keep reading about it. What is a good rate exactly?

Hello,

Still looking for a decent place to stay that won%26#39;t break the bank..!!

I tried VRBO.COM for condos but the 2 or 3 places i liked where already rented.

Reading travel books i have found the whaler and Resort quest Mahana seem to be recommended...anyone have any opinions on either of these two places...???

Thanks...!!

We stay at the Whaler every year. Each condo is different . I have been in some of the large, ocean front units and and I have been in studio units. Some nicer than others, but all were clean and decent. The location can%26#39;t be beat. You are right on the beach. The Kaanapali walkway is at your front door. Whalers village for eating or shopping is right next door and you can even use your room key to take the shortcut from the back of the condos to the village. The pool isn%26#39;t fancy and new but it has tons of chairs and places to hang out in the sun. There are lots of BBQ%26#39;s if you choose to eat in. If you choose to eat out you can%26#39;t walk to many of different places, have a few drinks and not worry about driving! There is a pretty nice gym that they just remodeled and a small beauty salon/spa. We really like it there.

Try the Maui Kai. Next door to the Mahana. Great location, and all units are oceanfront and have A/C.

How can I reuse ugly old blankets
