城市觀光建議

周邊交通資訊

Rent a car!

You’ll definitely need a car to enjoy the island to the fullest. Try Turo for more affordable options!
出發前完成預訂

Na Pali Coast boat tour

Highly recommend booking a boat tour before your vacation as they can sell out!
出發前完成預訂

Dinner reservations

Try to book dinner reservations for the high-demand spots such as Bar Acuda, AMA, Hukilau Lanai, Duke’s, and Bull Shed before your vacation (they can book up weeks in advance!)
攜帶物品

Pack for outdoor activities and warm & rainy weather

We recommend bringing warm-weather clothes as well as a rain jacket and waterproof/resistant shoes. Bring sunglasses, hats, shoes for outdoor activities, flip flops, and swimwear of course!
親子出遊

Renting baby gear

Some of our homes have pack n plays, but we do not have other baby gear. Should you need a high chair, a crib, or other items, Babylicious rents everything you’ll need!
風俗和文化

Please do not disturb any wildlife

We know how beautiful the wildlife is throughout the islands, but please be sure to enjoy them from a distance. Do not approach or touch any wildlife as you may harm them or yourself (it’s also against the law!)
風俗和文化

Please buy sunscreen on the island

Hawaii recently banned the sale of sunscreens with chemicals that are not reef-safe (oxybenzone and octinoxate) so please be sure to only bring reef-safe sunscreen or purchase sunscreen once you’re on island!
風俗和文化

Be mindful when snorkeling/swimming

Please be sure not to step on any coral or reefs while snorkeling or swimming as this can significantly damage the marine ecosystems!
