Summary

Frommer2s is the name you can trust for great travel bargains. Our acclaimed $-a-Day series is not for backpackers who want to rough it, but for travelers with taste, who2ve outgrown their student lifestyle and demand comfortable accommodations and good, authentic meals at a reasonable price. Each guide is loaded with detailed listings for mom-and-pop motels, B&Bs, comfortable guesthouses, good-value bistros, and ethnic restaurants. You2ll find a bargain-hunter2s shopping guide, affordable fun after dark, and complete sightseeing coverage, including the best things to do for free (or almost). Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go--they2ve done the legwork for you, and they2re not afraid to tell it like it is, saving you time and money. Every Frommer2s $-a-Day Guide is up-to-date, with dozens of color maps and exact prices for every single expense, so you can accurately plan each day2s budget. Frommer2s knows that affordable travel doesn2t have to mean making sacrifices. It2s about having fun and getting a great deal! Frommer2s Hawaii from $70 a Dayproves that you don2t have to spend a fortune on a ritzy resort to experience the best of the islands. Meticulously researched by two of Hawaii2s most noted journalists, this is a reliable, up-to-date, and comprehensive guide to the best bargains in the Aloha State. Our authors have scoured every inch of the islands personally, and they2ve selected the very best B&Bs, cottage and condo rentals, authentic mom-and-pop restaurants, shopping bargains, and affordable after-dark fun. They2ve given you all the details you need to use the Web to plan your trip, and offer smart advice on package tours, airfare bargains, and more. We2ll make sure that you2ll truly experience the spirit of aloha--we2ll help you steer clear of anything that2s overpriced, touristy, or inauthentic. With Frommer2s in hand, you2ll discover secluded beaches; great spots for snorkeling; golf courses with reasonable greens fees; hikes through volcano craters and lush rain forest; and secret waterfall swimming holes. We2ve even thrown in a free color fold-out map!
