My wife in Hawaii
My wife just spent 2 days in Honolulu and is now in Kauai. I think I mentioned that my friend Doug hooked us up with a condotel room in Hanalei Bay Resort. My wife's first impression of the room and the resort was very positive. It's bigger than she expected and very nice.
We also made our rental reservation though Doug's site and after choosing the "price so low we can't tell you the company's name" ended up with Thrifty. I booked her a convertible, Sebring or similar for $50/day I think. She got the Mustang which makes me even more jealous. But what can I do? JAL was having a huge sale and my semester was starting.
If anyone has any restaurant recommendations or whatever for Kauai please make them now!

The Hawaii car rental rates that are advertised on SummitPacific really are the lowest rates available. They are lower than you can get by going directly to Avis, Dollar, Thrifty, Budget and others. The problem is that the rates are even lower than the contracts these companies have on a national basis with Travelocity and Expedia. When Expedia sees these rates advertised they put pressure on the car rental companies and the companies put pressure on the regional discounters like SummitPacific to remove the rates from their advertising. The regionals get around this by "not mentioning" the car rental companies in their advertising.
Of course as soon as the customer gets a quote they get to see who these "unmentionals" are.
