Spend Less and See More in Hawaii

Are You Ready to Travel Smart?

If you'd like to get the most out of your dollar and your trip, this is the guide for you. I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you how to see the best for less and how to see it in a more authentic way-the way the locals do.

Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, why not stay at the Wabi-Sabi House on Maui where you can sleep in an enclosed, tranquil treehouse for just $70 a night, or bed down in an oceanfront condo on Kauai for $105 a night?

On Oahu, eat a Hawaiian plate lunch at the Rainbow Drive-In for under $4, so you can splurge on dinner. Try Iron Chef champion Seiya Masahara's specialty-Japanese comfort food known as oden, a hotpot of dashi (broth) with long-simmered vegetables-at Hakkei.

Let me show you the "other" Hawaii-the one only insiders know about. Listen to slack-key guitar jam sessions on Oahu or volunteer to work with the Hawaii Wildlife Fund on Maui to help endangered sea turtles get a healthy start on life. These are only a few of the great ways to get closer to the culture of Hawaii. Read on for more!

Happy Travels,
Pauline Frommer
