Hawaii has been, and always will be tops on my list, so it was nice to see Hawaii nab two prime spots in the “2008 Travelers’ Choice for US Destinations.” Perhaps I am too biased since I do live here – but come on…Hawaii is pretty great. I sort of feel bad for the other states, I mean how can they possibly compete against Hawaii’s beaches, beautiful sunsets and sights not to mention the Mai Tais and aloha spirit.
I was happy to see one of my favorite places making the list. Number 4, sunny Poipu on the island of Kauai. This is a great spot with a relaxed vibe yet it still manages to offer something for everyone. It has fabulous hotels, bars and as I learned from my friend Jody, a great surf break right off the beach in front of the hotels.
Ninth on the list was Lahaina on Maui. Again no surprise, since it is always a hit with travelers to the Aloha State. Lahaina’s rich whaling history and whale excursions combined with its’ culinary options, golf and shopping makes it also a terrific location for families or honeymoon couples.
That is the magical thing about Hawaii, it doesn’t matter if you are a family with kids, a large group, active, elderly or a couple looking to spark romance – Hawaii has something for everyone. This must be why people keep coming back to the islands year after year. (Posted by CM & Images Web).

I honeymooned in Lahaina, and had a blast. Even went on to Kauai’s Princeville but loved Lahaina in Maui the most! Now I’m back on the mainland and ship vehcles there. I’m so jealous when a customer is moving there….wish I could get up and move there and vibe with the aloha spirit!
