    This is insane. We are scheduled to come to Kauai in late March for two weeks. Our timeshare resort is not a bubble resort, and even if it was we will not give up a fourth of our time there. If this does not change by then, we will be giving up our four weeks of timeshare there and not be back. We have been coming for 20 years but this is too much. We will miss it, but it is just too difficult. If they don’t stop the nonsense there timeshare industry will go down the tubes as people cannot use their investment and will opt to just let it go.

    I cancelled our February trip to Kauai in time to get a full refund. The new processes you have outlined here are certainly not enough to rebook my trip in 2021, at this time.

    Who would want to go? Every week there’s a new plan.
    There is alot of money, planning, that goes into an expensive trip. There are so many rules that I’d be afraid something would come up last minute and cost more,with hassel, and frustration. I am sorry for the economy there.

    We love Kauai. we married there in 1981, have visited frequently and have had a time share there for 20+ years. We waited as long as possible, but yesterday traded our 2021 week for points. I don’t see a good end to covid-19 or Hawaii’s tourist policies within the next year. Sadly, I believe it will take years for Hawaii to recover; and some parts of the economy may never do so. We will hold tight to our memories and wish the many people who made our stays so wonderful but at our age, we may never be able to travel to Hawaii again.

    I guess it’s good news but how much more complicated can they make it!!! Thank goodness we’re not coming until mid-July!

    I just figured out how much more this is going to cost me for my January trip and it’s too expensive.
    You have pretest costs, shuttle to hotel costs, bubble hotel, grocery delivery charge, rental of bubble bracelet ($85-100 pp), taxi to get second test, cost of second test, taxi to get rental car, pay more for car because weekly rentals are less. If you decide to stay on Maui or Oahu first then add in interisland fare. So to me the people won’t come. Thanks for letting me get this off my chest.

      Hi Joan.

      Thanks for the feedback and getting that off your chest. We appreciate your many comments over the past 5 years as well.

      Aloha.

    I’ve been coming to Kauai for years. This is so sad. There were 20 of us coming mid 2021 and renting 5 different condos. There is no way we can go through all this quarantine and stuff for days. The poor condo owners are suffering if not already lost their places, all the local businesses are suffering too, laying off or just sadly going out of business,it’s been over 9 months now and no end in sight. Everyone in the USA that was traveling to hawaii is making other vacation plans elsewhere,, I am so sad for the hawaiian people 🌺
