Welcome to Hawaii Vacation Connection's podcast! I'm Bruce Fisher, your tourism guide and Hawaii expert. As someone who has planned Hawaii vacations for multiple years I am here to show you how to plan your Hawaii trip correctly. Today, we’re talking about my favorite topic: Share simple ways to save money during your Hawaii vacation. Let’s dive in!
Secure Your Flight Deals with Our Help Then Pay in InstallmentsDuring the early months of the year airfare to Hawaii usually hits its lowest prices. Many airlines launch special discounts during this period and you can actually see them taking effect now. Our Hawaii Aloha Travel team secures current low airfare deals for you and lets you pay for the package in monthly installments. This method lets families and others book their future trips ahead of time with better deals.
2. Oahu: Your Best-Value IslandOahu offers the best value when you want to save money. Why?
More hotel selection: Your better odds of finding good hotel deals come from Waikiki's many hotel choices.Limited Airbnb options: The state of Hawaii has put stricter rules on Airbnb rentals and Waikiki hosts about 90% of them on Oahu island. Airbnb properties no longer offer cheaper rates since hotel rates match or drop below Airbnb prices.Our condo rentals, including Airbnb units, let you experience the home-away-from-home feel while providing full kitchens for meal preparation.
3. Don’t Obsess Over the Ocean ViewOcean views are incredible, but ask yourself: Most hotels in Waikiki charge more for rooms with ocean views than they do for rooms with city views. Choosing a lower-category room helps you save money since you won't spend much time in the hotel when you are out exploring. Besides getting amazing views you can save a lot of money when you stay at a hotel across the street.
4. Consider All-Inclusive or Breakfast BundlesPeople in Hawaii choose all-inclusive deals or add breakfast to their hotel booking because eating out costs too much. When you choose your meals this way you will know how much they will cost you. Our packages let you choose between eating every day and design your meal plan according to your tastes. When you add breakfast to your booking it helps you control your meal expenses at local restaurants.
5. Get Creative with FoodWhen your room has a cooking area make sure to use it regularly. Groceries and prepared foods from local spots can stretch your budget:
Shop at Costco or local grocery stores: Yes, Hawaii has Costco! An Uber ride to the supermarket that costs $40 round trip saves you money when you stock up on supplies for a week.Check out farmers markets: You can buy fresh produce and special Hawaiian treats at local markets. You can discover local customs while finding good discounts through this activity.ABC Stores & Bento Boxes: You can find multiple ABC stores across Waikiki selling affordable bento boxes and sushi snacks. Fast food options in Hawaii that cost less than ten dollars give you a better dining deal than traditional restaurants.Eat & Drink Wisely: You are interested in drinking cocktails. Purchase your own alcohol and prepare drinks in your hotel room instead of spending money on bar prices. By making drinks at your room you save money on expensive bar prices.Thought about ways to spend less on vacation trips to Hawaii
