What kind of Kauai activities would you recommend for my honeymoon on Kauai? What is unique about a honeymoon on Kauai? Kauai, the oldest island in the Hawaiian Islands, is often called the "Garden Isle" for it's lush, tropical landscape. There is a wide variety of honeymoon options on Kauai. You can stay in a beautiful Kauai resort, a quaint Kauai bed and breakfast or a Kauai condo or Kauai vacation rental. Look at all your lodging options on Kauai before making a decision. There is a great deal in every price range, so feel free to call us or any of our partners to find out about current specials, packages and promotions. Kauai is a rural island, that still retains the feel of "Old Hawaii". While the island is developing, it has only one main road that stretches from Polihale Beach on the West side to the "end of the road" on the North Shore, at Ke'e State Park. This road takes you through the various small towns of Kauai, each with their own unique history, heritage and flavor. Kauai is an ideal honeymoon destination for the discriminating couple who also appreciate the beauty of the outdoors. It is a rugged island, yet beautiful in a way that is truly hard to put in words. The beaches of Kauai are among the most stunning in the world, and offer many incredible backdrops for your Kauai honeymoon romance. What is a typical Kauai honeymoon like? There truly is not a "typical" Kauai honeymoon, as the options on the island are so diverse. Honeymoon itineraries on Kauai range from five star elegancy to rustic jungle cottages with solar power. Let us know about yourself and your fiancée, and we will work with you to decide upon the most ideal Kauai honeymoon itinerary for your tastes and budget. Are there packages available for my Kauai honeymoon that are all inclusive? Honeymoon packages on Kauai are not all-inclusive in the same way many honeymoon packages are in other regions such as Tahiti or the Caribbean. However, Preview Hawaii can help you arrange a Kauai honeymoon itinerary that covers all the major bases, so the only decisions you need to make after coming to Kauai is where to eat dinner and what shopping to do! Go through all of the Kauai honeymoon options on Preview Hawaii and call us with any questions you have about this very special once in a lifetime trip! Should I use a travel planner or plan my Kauai honeymoon on my own? You are certainly capable of planning your own Kauai honeymoon with extensive research and time. However, you may not have that time as you are also planning for the wedding and running your normal life. An experience travel planner in Hawaii can present you with options that are based on first hand experience of Hawaii, and the knowledge of the best possible values in every price bracket in Hawaii. Though Preview Hawaii is a very extensive resource in planning your honeymoon on Kauai, we could never replace the personalized service of a honeymoon planner. How do I get to Kauai? All flights into Kauai fly into Lihue Airport. There are a few direct mainland flights that arrive each day, primarily American and United flying in from San Francisco and Los Angeles. However, there are many flights to and from the other major Hawaiian Islands every day, and many visitors come into Kauai through a mainland flight into Honolulu, and then a small inter-island flight to Kauai. Do I need to rent a car when I get to Kauai? It is STRONGLY recommended that you rent a car on Kauai! The island is very rural, and the towns, activities and attractions are spaced far apart. Public transportation is very limited and time consuming. How far in advance should I plan my honeymoon on Kauai? Planning for a Hawaii honeymoon can be done in less than six months, but many begin planning as early as a year prior. If you need help planning your honeymoon on Kauai, please call our toll free number at 866-773-8844. What time of year is best for a Kauai honeymoon? The great thing about Kauai is that the weather is very mild and temperate year round! There are of course weather differences on each side of the island, and within the many microclimates of Kauai, but on any given day there is a warm, sunny beach on at least one side of the island! So, you really can feel comfortable planning your honeymoon on Kauai any time of year. The sub-tropical weather can be unpredictable, and as we say in Hawaii, "no rain, no rainbows!" so be prepared for some changing weather. Is it common to visit more than one Hawaiian Island on my honeymoon? It is very common to visit at least two islands in Hawaii for your honeymoon in Hawaii. The islands of Hawaii are so diverse, and each is a very different experience. While Kauai is rural, slow and oriented towards the outdoors, many of the other islands are busier and more cosmopolitan. The best step in beginning to plan your honeymoon in Hawaii is calling us at 866-773-8844 (toll free on Kauai) to discuss your dream honeymoon in Hawaii. After asking you a few questions about you and your fiancée, your interests and your budget, we can put together a custom Hawaii honeymoon proposal that will based on your needs. How much is inter-island airfare in Hawaii? Are there other ways to get from island to island? Unfortunately, inter-island airfare in Hawaii has risen in price recently. The inter-island air segments are now sold only as one way tickets, and are $75.00 each at the cheapest, usually closer to $90.00 each way. Here at Preview Hawaii we are able to get more affordable rates through Hawaiian Airlines. Call us toll free at 866-773-8844 to get a quote on inter-island airfare! W hat kind of Kauai activities would you recommend for my honeymoon on Kauai? Kauai is ideal for nature lovers and adventurers. The oldest island in the Hawaiian Island chain, Kauai is a lush garden of outdoor adventures. Activities on Kauai include helicopter tours of Kauai, Kauai boat trips, snorkeling adventures, Kauai hiking trails, luau's and other exciting adventures on Kauai. If you are unsure about which activities on Kauai to participate in, please call us toll free at 866-773-8844.

Hawaiian quilting festival this

Honolulu Star-Bulletin Features The caption goes here. Photo by Photographer, Star-Bulletin ----------------------------------------------- Photos By Craig T. Kojima, Star-Bulletin Lee Wild shows a pattern by the late master quilter, Meali'i Kalama. Below, a quilt on display this weekend. Stitches in Time One of the goals of the Hawaiian quilting festival this weekend is to perpetuate the cultural art form By Catherine Kekoa Enomoto Star-Bulletin IT'S a quilting bee to beat the band. This weekend's inaugural Hawaiian Quilt Festival at Blaisdell Center offers a patchwork of activities. Displays, exhibits, demonstrations, lectures, workshops, a marketplace and hands-on practice cover each step in the quilting process - pattern tracing, cutting, laying out, pinning, basting, hemming or appliqueing, and quilting. "We'll have old quilt patterns and dressmaker's tracing paper for purchase at $2 for a two-yard sheet," said Augusta-Helen "Aunty Gussie" Bento, president of the Hawaiian Quilt Research Project and co-chair of the three-day festival. "It's enough to trace one large quilt design and a couple of small designs. The patterns themselves stretch out to 40 or 48 inches." Bento said different quilt patterns will be available Saturday and Sunday, plus pencils for general use. "Then, people will be able to quilt on a horse that's there for community quilting," she said. Oahu and neighbor island quilters will lead workshops, such as stencils, Hawaiian tropical placemats, Hawaiian quilt pillow, miniature Hawaiian quilt, and designing a Hawaiian quilt. Cost will range from $26.50 to $75. Co-chair Elaine Zinn said festival goals are three-fold - "to help the public understand what the Hawaiian Quilt Research Project is about, to perpetuate the art of Hawaiian quilting so that it continues to grow, and to let people know how to take care of their quilts, because our environment and insects are so threatening to textiles." The 16-year Research Project has documented and registered more than 900 quilts and 700 quilt patterns on all islands. People will be able to sign up at the festival for future registries. "The project is important to preserve the history of Hawaiian quilts," said Zinn, who produced the 13-part public television "Hawaiian Quilting" series, "and to preserve the actual quilts that are still with us, so they will last a few more generations. They are very precious." "It was the greatest show of friendship to share one's quilt patterns," said Elizabeth Akana, who can conjure a genteel picture of tutu (grandmothers) with flowers in their hair, gathered on a porch to share snitches of gossip and stitches of colorful threads. "The quilts are enlightening us about our history and bringing about a love of history, because when you're dealing with a quilt you've got to have love in your heart," Akana said. Meanwhile, people can take their own paper and pencil, and trace quilt patterns at Waianae Library, which has a prodigious collection of 400 patterns, with more patterns yet available at Kailua Library and Brigham Young University-Hawaii collections. Akana said of Hawaii's unique quilting process and product: "We're looking at love in fabric and thread."
