Summer Travel Deals in Paradiseby Michele Cheplic | More from this Blogger 02 Aug 2008 07:57 PM Lodgings across the 50th State are offering spectacular summer savings to try to compensate for the sky-high cost of airfare to Hawaii. The following properties located on two of Hawaii's most beautiful islands are currently offering special package deals to entice you to make the trip to the "Land of Aloha." Take a look: MAUI The Old Wailuku Inn at Ulupono, Maui is offering a special $150 rate through fall on all of its "green" rooms. The environmentally friendly lodging features water heated 100 percent by solar power; on-demand gas in the main Inn and rooms fitted with CFL (compact fluorescent lighting). In addition, all main Inn windows have been retrofitted with specially designed Plexiglas to prevent the loss of cooled air and eliminate street noise. The Inn's towels are also made of 100 percent natural fiber materials and the linens are a no-iron blend to save electricity. The discounted nightly rate includes a full gourmet breakfast daily, high-speed DSL, the Inn's own house blend coffee, and Aveda biodegradable personal care amenities. KAUAI The Westin Princeville Ocean Resort Villas located on the Hawaiian Island of Kauai is tempting your taste buds with its "Flavors of Princeville" package, which features a first-class culinary experience including the following: A welcome basket filled with two Westin Princeville embroidered chef's aprons, a Kauai grilling cookbook and grill recipe from the hotel's executive chef; a four-course tasting menu for two at the on-site restaurant; a "Grilling Under the Stars Experience" for two including a steak and fresh catch entree, flatbread, locally grown greens, and choice of beverage; complimentary admission to the resort's Tuesday night wine tasting, and a tour of Hanalei's Saturday farmers' market. The package starts at $390 per night for a one-bedroom deluxe island-view villa, and must be booked for a minimum of four nights. This offer is available for booking through August 31, 2008 for travel dates from August 23 through December 23, 2008.
