We did 5 days in Hilo on the big island, then 6 days in Honolulu. With 2 days of scuba diving and some chilling, we didn’t run out of things to do. With no diving you’d probably want a car to go explore, or pop to another island for a few days
Having looked at all the hotel chain options, we ended up getting an apartment on VRBO. Picked one in Waikiki near all the hotels, so still in a handy spot. Factoring in points valuations and hotel cash prices, we got a much bigger space with a kitchen for less.
Lots of Americans burning their huge CC earnt points balances mean that redemptions aren’t always the best option
