Fabulous Hawaii Vacation Reviews

Aloha Faye,

We are back and are getting settled in after the trip to Hawaii and then my trip to Calgary to visit my Mom.

We had a wonderful time and the help that you provided on every aspect was greatly appreciated. Especially given that our scope changed a couple of times in the planning process! Thanks also for looking in to the flights to return Mary Lynn one day earlier which enabled us to take her to the airport just before her flight rather than having her wait around for 5 hours at the airport. Also thanks for checking on the flights to Calgary.

We really liked staying at the Palms of Wailea. My mother in law was delighted with her garden view condo. The garden view condo that we were initially placed in was pretty dated and we didn't care for the busy street that we looked out on. After the first night we moved to an ocean view condo (for an extra fee) and this was amazing. Gorgeous views of the ocean and whales. The condo was also more up to date and not tired-looking. We would definitely stay here again. The condo was extremely spacious especially after our travels in Europe!! The location was great with the beach being just a short drive away and great shops and restaurants (though pricey) at the Shops of Wailea. We also enjoyed the live entertainment there on Wednesday night.

I thought that groceries were very expensive but was advised to get a special temporary card at Foodland that gave me large savings. We also did a snorkel trip, Luau at the Marriott and did a short trip to the Botanical Garden, stopping at a golf course and having lunch at a Cafe o Lei on the way back (this was great).

Thanks for all that you did to make our holiday perfect,

Best Regards,
R. Yose
