The Best Hotel Bargains
Aloha Plantation Kauai (tel. 877/658-6977): Walk back in history at this old, 1920s plantation home decorated with Hawaiian antiques in Kilauea. Prices start at $69 double.
Brennecke's Beach Bungalow (tel. 888/393-4646): Attention honeymooners (or honeymooner wannabes): This is your place -- so close to Poipu Beach that you can see it from your private lanai (about a 45-second walk from the front door to the waves). Tucked into a large two-story house is this private-entrance studio decorated with bamboo floors, maple cabinets, and lots of Hawaiian decor. This studio also has a small kitchenette (microwave, toaster oven, blender, coffeemaker, and fridge), cozy sitting area, and a comfortable bed. Outdoors there's a beach shower, barbecue area, and a big, green lawn. Restaurants, dining, tennis, and golf are just minutes away.
Ellie's Koloa House (tel. 808/635-0054): This two bedroom/two bathroom home, surrounded by tropical gardens, is for the traveler who wants a "real" Hawaii experience living in a residential area, like a local resident. The house (with full kitchen) has antique furniture re-covered in old Hawaiian print fabric, with paddle fans to keep the house cool, TV, washer and dryer, barbecue, and everything you can think of to make your vacation. Just a mile and a half to the beach and walking distance to Koloa town's shops and restaurants.
Garden Island Inn (tel. 800/648-0154): Centrally located (a couple of miles from the airport, walking distance to the beach), this small (21 rooms) inn has comfortable accommodations at budget prices (from $99).
Kalaheo Inn (tel. 888/332-6023): What a deal! This boutique inn (15 units), located in the community of Kalaheo (10 min. to the beach, walking distance to great restaurants) is comfy, clean, and terrific for families. Prices start at $65.
