6 Questions I Always Get Asked About Hawaii

1. What’s the Best Hawaiian Island?Your neighbor may tell you that Maui is the best, but your cousin just got back from Oahu and thinks that IT is the best island (that doesn’t mean either of those will be your favorite). I love that each island has their own unique personality and each traveler is going to have their own favorites.Oahu is such a fun destination because there is so much to do; Maui is a great choice if you love to go to the beach and explore the outdoors. The Big Island is great if you like a bit more adventure, and Kauai is so lush and has that true authentic Hawaiian feel to it. One of my favorite parts about being a travel advisor is pairing you with the right destination for your personality.

2. When is the best time to visit Hawaii?The best time to visit Hawaii is really ANY time. The best thing about Hawaii is the amazing temps year-round. If you are looking to avoid the crowds and pay a little less, then spring and fall should be your target seasons, but be sure to avoid the spring break timeframe. Summer in the Islands is Hawaii at its most perfect, and also its most crowded, so if you love getting lost in a crowd or meeting new people, then June, July and August are for you. Winter in Hawaii means a tropical Christmas, a truly unique experience, and surfers will love the large north swells that envelope the Islands’ northern coastlines during this season. And if Whale Watching is on your bucket list, then you surely need to hit Hawaii between December and March.

3. Do you need a passport to travel to Hawaii?Nope! Hawaii is a part of the United States, so no passport is needed. Also, because it’s part of the US, you can use US dollars as well as communicate in English in Hawaii (although you’ll be greeting your friends with Aloha and Mahalo in no time).

4. How’s the flight to Hawaii?If you've never been that far on a plane, it can feel pretty long – but oh, so worth it. Plan ahead with movies, magazines, and snacks and you’ll be in the golden sun in no time.

5. What should I pack?The beauty of having me as your travel advisor is the recommendations I always send along with your trip planning. Before you head to the airport, I’ll suggest that you pack things like reef-safe sunscreen, a water proof beach bag, and believe it or not, maybe a jacket for those randomly rainy days, or high altitude must-see attractions like Haleakalā, to name a few.

6. What’s a must-do while in Hawaii?It seems like the things you can see and do in Hawaii is endless. From snorkeling and surfing to hiking and whale watching, it’s impossible to experience it all and there’s no “must do” that fits everyone. That’s why it’s so important for me to know about what interests you. Do you like history and culture? Then I’d suggest a visit to Pearl Harbor and experiencing a luau. Love thrilling water activities? I’d recommend mountain tubing or snorkeling with Manta Rays. But my number one must-do while in Hawaii will always be to embrace the aloha spirit and enjoy every minute of your time in paradise.

If you’re ready to experience Hawaii for yourself, the best time to start planning is now. As a Hawaii Destination Expert, I’ve studied the islands in depth and visited multiple times and I'd love to send you too!

Ever since my husband and I got married in Mexico, we made a promise to ourselves to plan romantic getaways and adults only vacations every year, even after we had kids. Our favorite destinations so far are the Hawaiian Islands, Sandals Resorts - specifically in Jamaica, the Bahamas and Antigua  - and our unforgettable Alaskan Cruise. And my newest obsession - ITALY!

Paris Anniversary Perfection
Paris Anniversary Perfection

Thank you for your hard work on our anniversary trip to Paris. It was absolutely fabulous in every way. It was a perfect balance of planned activities and free time to roam and explore. The hotel you recommended was so perfect. The location was ideal and I highly recommend it as well. You're right - buying tickets in advance for important activities is the only way to go - but also finding some amazing gems while roaming the streets - true perfection. Picking a favorite is so hard.

Italy was a Dream Trip
Italy was a Dream Trip

It was so wonderful to have an Italian guide who shared so much history throughout! Not only did he talk about the historical sites, but we also learned about the farmland, lifestyles and so much more during our travel from city to city! In one day, we were able to see the Colosseum and the Vatican because of our private bus and the skip-the-line tours that were reserved for us. We could have never done that on our own. Lines were wrapped around every building and most of those sites limit how many people enter each day so tickets are difficult to get. We added days on before and after the tour. Jessica handled EVERY DETAIL (scheduled our hotels, train rides and provided transfers) which would have taken me days to research and plan out. She checked on us throughout our trip to make sure it was everything we had dreamed of. And it was!

Amazing first time at Secrets Maroma Beach
Amazing first time at Secrets Maroma Beach

Jessica Pratt planned the best vacation for our family! We went to Secrets Maroma Beach Cancun in July 2024. We had never been out of the country before so we had no idea how to plan a trip. She made it so easy because she did EVERYTHING, from the minute we arrived at the airport to leave until we arrived at the airport to come home and even more. She gave us details for the entire week we would be gone! We all know vacations can have bumps in them that cannot be avoided but they can be especially scary when you're out of the country! We had an emergency situation while we were there and Jessica was just a call away and was texting with me throughout the day and even into the night when we made it back to our resort! She held our hand the entire way. Jessica absolutely made our time away amazing even when there were bumps! We will absolutely be using her again!
