No…..not happening. Will not be in resort jail for half of our vacation. Our trip for November looks like a No Go….Cancel!!!
Thank you for keeping us informed of this YO YO situation.

My wife and I are still hoping to visit Hawaii in early October. If this is the only option, we will cancel our trip for sure. I don’t go on vacation to be held captive and really, this sounds very boring. I can stay in Wisconsin and watch the leaves fall. Hawaii, unlike Jamaica, is a place you want to go and explore on you own. These bubble places seem like they are bubbles even in good times… You’d need to be cautious in venturing out from a resort. In any case we are eager to know what the rules will be for October as we really want to make this trip.

I actually kind of like this idea, for us anyway! We have been to Maui so many times and have loved it Everytime, but we do not Need to go a lot of places! At this point we just Want to come there in January and Enjoy our favorite place on the planet doing almost nothing, swim in the ocean, swim in our pool, if safe, get some food, BBQ at our condo, watch the whales, read a book drink ice Cold Longboard beer while sitting in the sun in front of the complex watching waves!

Having ANY other countries citizens come into one of our states without allowing our own citizens in first is wrong on so many levels but considering the way little Iggy and his cabal of mayors has been running the state into the ground this is probably what they will try to do. At that point I truly hope that the President steps in and says oh HELL no you don’t! They will take federal tax dollars and then do that? Next time they want a big cash infusion then go to the Japanese government first and see how that works. And comparing Jamaica, a sovereign country, to Hawaii, a US state is just asinine!

On the Kohala Coast, there is only one property that one could call “self-contained” — Mauna Kea/Hapuna, now owned by Marriott. The Marriott Waikoloa, Mauna Lani, and Hilton Waikoloa are all within easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Unless guests can be constantly monitored (non-removable electronic bracelets?), this doesn’t seem to be a feasible plan for the Big Island. Already, daily cases on Oahu are recording their highest rates ever. A Florida teen and his father were just handcuffed and taken to a quarantine facility for ten days. My best guess is that people will simply remove their electronic devices and leave them in the room, ignoring their bubble quarantine.

I understand that they are grasping at straws here but I just don’t see someone paying that kind of money and investing their vacation time in being a prisoner even if it is at a resort. Hawaii is too beautiful to be caged in paradise. I appreciate all of your great information and perspective.

STUPIDEST idea yet. But hey at least someone is trying to come up with ideas. Just not this one please.

Just simply say we don’t want u in Hawaii and we can go ahead and cancel our reservations and quit worrying about it
This is absolutely the most ridiculous proposal I’ve ever heard.

I agree with you. Hawaii has covid carriers it makes me so mad they are hiding it. I work at a trauma center. Hawaii has people walking around that are carriers of COVID …asymptomatic because look at the numbers … they are not getting tested in Hawaii like here on the mainland. Thousands being tested except in Hawaii. [Edited to remove upper case – please no UPPER CASE – thanks].

No, No, No!!!! What a crazy idea! I would never pay the expensive price for a Hawaiian vacation just to quarantine in a resort. I guess an ankle bracelet comes with that bubble. Stop this fear people!!!
