If you've never been to the Big Island, I highly recommend it. I spent 10 days there back in May and had a blast. Stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel in Kailua-Kona--it's a little worn, but it's right in the center of town and has lots of tikis and other native Hawaiian artifacts on the premises. And the lunch buffet at the Volcano House had the best mahimahi I've ever tasted. Seriously.
