Hawaii Vacation Tips - Tiki Travel

For dining in Lahaina I'd recommend IO and Pacifico (sister restaurants) on the far end of Front Street. Definitely a giant upgrade in the dining scene for Lahaina. With more direct flights to Maui, Kauai, and Kona it's been a year or so since I've been to Oahu (passed through on the way to Bora Bora last year, but that's another story). Lots of good stuff about Honolulu already on this thread, but my contribution would be to try the unbelievable Plate Lunches at a place called the Rainbow Drive-in. Totally local and always good. There's also a bar in a parking garage (the Sheraton maybe?) with a window into the hotel swimming pool. Don't recall it being particularly Tiki-ish, but interesting nonetheless. Aloha, Vic
