I've already been twice and still learned a thing or two -- this definitely seems like it'd be handy to more than just first timers. Thanks!
Great to hear Kevin. Mahalo!
Agree with Kevin, really handy tips not just for first time travelers esp. the bit about saving money on rentals and the sights & activities. Thanks for sharing! Cheers.
Dear Sheila,
My sisters and I are planning to go to Hawaii for the first time this summer. Which month would be better to go, July or August? And we are planning to stay at the Makaha Valley Towers. Do you think that's a good place to stay?
If possible I would like an answer by email.
Thank-you
Follow the links for July and August to help you decide between the two: https://www.govisithawaii.com/2007/10/15/the-best-times-to-visit-hawaii/
We haven't stayed or been to the Makaha Valley Towers. We recommend you read TripAdvisor reviews.
Unfortunately we don't offer individual replies/support by email.
