From Library Journal This is Hawaii at its best--breathtaking scenery of quieter Kauai and Molokai, active volcanoes of Hawaii, unspoiled natural beauty of undeveloped Lanai, Kahoolawe, and Niihan, combined with the contrasting metropolitan and resort sophistication of popular Oahu and Maui. All of this, and more, awaits the carte blanche traveler. Exploring America's tropical paradise the Bantam travel-guide way means ignoring a budget, going first class, and experiencing only the very finest of everything. This is every traveler's dream. Unfortunately, few can afford only the best, and the budget-minded will have to rely on such guides as Frommer's Hawaii on $50 a Day, Fodor's '89 Hawaii, Birnbaum's Hawaii, and Maverick Guide to Hawaii for affordable vacationing. Bantam's Hawaii covers everything--sightseeing, golfing, shopping, surfing, scuba diving, night life, dining, and accommodations--but covers it very expensively. A nice supplemental addition. - Ann E. Cohen, Rochester P.L., Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc.
This guide explores the diverse landscapes and sophisticated offerings of Hawaii, focusing on a high-end travel experience. The book details the breathtaking scenery of Kauai and Molokai, the active volcanoes of Hawaii, and the natural beauty of Lanai, Kahoolawe, and Niihan, contrasted with the urban and resort environments of Oahu and Maui. It caters to the 'carte blanche' traveler seeking first-class experiences in America's tropical paradise, covering all aspects from sightseeing and dining to accommodations and nightlife, though it acknowledges this approach is expensive.
This guide is presented as a premium travel resource, highlighting Hawaii's most scenic and sophisticated destinations for travelers with ample budgets. The review notes that while it covers all aspects of a vacation, from activities to lodging, its focus on 'only the very finest' makes it a costly option. It is suggested as a supplemental guide for those seeking an indulgent experience, with a nod to more budget-conscious alternatives for affordable vacationing.
