We chose Hawaii to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and booked a flight starting in May and the Hilton where we always wanted to stay. However, my husband couldn't go due to work, so I tried to cancel, but the accommodation was cheap and there was no refund. I felt it was a waste to lose 2.5 million won, so I ended up spending another 8 million won to come to Hawaii. Since my daughter and I came together, not being able to rent a car became a problem later. Hilton is like a new town, with condos, a hotel, a golf club resort, a swimming pool, a restaurant, and a shopping center within a large fortress called Waikolona Village, and you can get around by free shuttle bus. The reason our accommodation was cheap was because it was a resort located inside a golf club and was about a 30-minute walk away from downtown areas such as the main hotel and Queen's Market. Our accommodation was in building 24 of them, so we had to ride the golf course cart from the club house for about 5 minutes. I paid a $5 tip for driving the cart and carrying the suitcase to the room. (Pay a deposit of about 350,000 won when checking in, and if there are no problems a few days after check-out, cancel the card and repay a resort fee of about 150,000 won.) You can only eat pizza, hamburgers, and alcohol at the clubhouse, so go to the main place, Queen's Market, to buy groceries. I had to see it. All products include VAT, so I included the VAT and unconditionally added a tip of 18, so the price was murderous. From hotel reviews, I finally realized why I buy groceries at the supermarket. Even if you want to pay money to eat, there is no particular restaurant or type of food you can buy. Anyway, I ate pizza, hamburger, beer and cocktail at the club and it cost 90,000 won. The club resort where we stayed was spacious, comfortable, clean, and good for two people to stay. There was ice in the refrigerator, two bags of Kona coffee, and Coffee Mate dishware, plenty of towels, and food supplies. Netflix is available, but considering my subscription ID, I don't know if it's free with a hotel ID. The manta ray company picked us up at the clubhouse and completed the trip safely, but the incident in question occurred because the stargazing tour ended late the next day and we missed the shuttle bus. I was dropped off in front of Starbucks in Queens Market at 10:30, but everything was closed and the rain started to fall, and the big neighborhood was filled with tears. . .After missing the Uber taxi for the fifth time, my daughter said we should walk for about 20 minutes, and it reminded me of the young man who went missing in Japan. I thought, “Okay, let’s walk quickly.” After walking for about 5 minutes, my daughter, who was usually good at finding directions, seemed confused and couldn’t figure out the direction on the trail that seemed *******. I went out to the main street again, caught an Uber taxi after much trouble, and returned to my lodgings. The young, friendly white Uber taxi driver even worried that it might be dangerous, so I was grateful and gave him a 25% tip. Anyway, Hawaii seems to be overcoming adversity well from the start. I was very disappointed that I couldn't go to the famous swimming pool with dolphins and use the village and only slept because I was on an all-day activity tour for 4 days. Still, I had to pay a resort fee of about 150,000 won. For reference, it is free to travel from Kona Airport to the accommodation, but on the day of going back to Kona Airport, it is a paid bus and must be reserved in advance. I couldn't make a reservation, so I took Uber. On the first day, the driver couldn't communicate on the way from Kona Airport to the accommodation, so he drove us around. In Hawaii, there are quite a few employees of color who are not fluent in English, so be sure to communicate properly. The road is wide, not crowded, and travels at low speeds, so women should always rent a car.
