Destination Hawai`i Rentals is the premiere vacation rental website serving all the Hawaiian Islands of Oahu, Maui, Kauai, the Big Island, Molokai and Lanai. Hawaii is by far one of the most beautiful areas in the world. People from across the world travel to this history-rich chain of islands. With such natural wonders as one of the world's most active volcanoes, world's tallest sea mountain, Kauai’s deep canyons, world’s largest surf, and numerous amounts of natural wonders it's not surprising that Hawaii has been a favorite vacation locale for decades.
Oahu is Hawaii's third largest island, but once out of developed Oahu this is easy to forget. Solitude on the white sands of a tropical beach is never too far away but neither is a golf course and good shopping. A hike through the green interior, through pines and tropical tangle, makes it no challenge to pretend that this is a land forgotten by time but the skyline of Honolulu indicates it is not.
The Big Island, the southernmost island in the Hawaiian chain, is twice as big as all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Rain brings lush vegetation and frequent rainbows to the shores and forests characteristic of the east coast. Rocky coves turn into steep crags and valleys at the north end of the road from Hilo, shot through with twenty shades of green and shimmering waterfalls.
One of the tenkarat gems in the emerald Hawaiian island chain, Maui has the beaches, lush tropical foliage, volcanic vistas and shopping that makes sunset over a Mai Tai so rewarding. Western Maui serves miles after miles of sea and sand garnished with palmtrees, perfect for strolling, sunning and an afternoon snorkel. The West Maui Mountains soar up as a suitably majestic backdrop, with equally rewarding views from their heights.
Kauai, the Garden Island ranges from lush tangles of greenery and steep, secluded mountains down to all-around-perfect white sandy beaches. A trip round the island takes one from the lazy Huleia River running alongside Lihue, Kauai's main port, north along the island's east edge through the Coconut Coast. Kayak or water ski on the Wailua River before heading up into the interior for an exploratory hike along Powerline Trail via Mt. Waialeale.
Soaring sea cliffs the world's highest drop off into the blue depths of the Pacific on Molokai's north coast. These barren slabs of rock convinced Captain Cook in 1778 that the island was inhospitable and uninhabited. Long stretches of white sand further along the coast, rain forests, waterfalls, rolling hills and deep valleys wisped in mist point to a mistake on Cook's part, though Molokai does lacks some of the amenities that make bigger islands such tourist hot spots. However this means that for a taste of the real Hawaii this is it.
Visible over the sea from Lahaina in Maui, Lanai is small, relatively secluded and rewardingly undeveloped. Once the biggest pineapple supplier in the U.S., modern Lanai is today home to only 3,200 residents and some of the best snorkeling in the Hawaiian Islands. White sand beaches stretch around large sections of shoreline on this small island, contrasting sharply with the steep black cliffs that frame Kaumalapau Harbor and Manele Bay, dropping down to craggy rock formations and pools at Palaoa Point in the south.
