Pagoda Hotel in Honolulu – cheap rates

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel – has a popular restaurant

Dolphin Bay Hotel – motel type hotel with a kitchenette in each room

Hostel : Staying in a hostel is usually the cheapest option , but you have to share a room and bathroom with other people.

A short term lease on an apartment room may be considered if the duration of the stay is more than a week or the tourist group has more than 5 members. Maps and other amenities are often available in the rented house

Room rates in hotels go up around 2nd – 3rd week in June until end of August during the peak tourist season. Visiting Hawaii during the  non – peak tourist season can save some money.

Tourists can either spend a few days on each island and then fly between islands, or then take a cruise ship which stops at each of the islands for a few days.  The advantage of taking a cruise ship is that you do not spend time at the airport flying from one island to another and also do not have to check in at different hotels
