Alena and I booked our next-next vacation. We’re going to go back to Hawaii for our 3 year wedding anniversary. But if last time we went to Oahu and stayed in Honolulu, this time we’re going to to the Big Island.We’re going to stay in luxurious Hilton Waikoloa Village resort. And the best part is that we don’t have to pay1 anything for the hotel at all thanks to us being a part of Hilton Honors program.
What we do have to pay2 for is the flight. But flights these days seem to be much cheaper than they were even when we went to Hawaii the first time in 2005. We’re going to rent a car and explore the whole island. I can’t wait to visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park for example.
This should be a great honeymoon vacation.
I can’t wait.- We’re staying here for 8 nights. Normally each night runs 40,000 points here, but Gold VIP members get a discount, so we’re spending 235,000. And we have plenty more left for long weekend trips. [↩]
- No direct flights, so there is a plane change in LAX. Total cost is going to be $1,782.80 for the 2 of us. The flight is about 13 hours each way. [↩]

I went to Hawaii for 2 weeks over New Years. Loved Big Island — a lot of stuff to do. Also try to swim with wild dolphins! And you will need to spend full day at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Also (if you can) visit Mauna Kea. There are 7 different climates on the island, so make sure to keep some ward clothers in the car.
Anyway, Alena, let me know if you need any info.
Loved it. Very interesting with a lot of activities!!!!
