hawaii vacation discounts for locals

9.3.2012

It appears that no matter how you try getting a Hawaii vacation deal online, the locals beat you by just simply showing up with their driver's licence. I have been on Maui recently staying at Mandara Spa At Wailea Marriott, and for some reason there were a lot of people that looked like they were local hanging out around the pools. First, I thought they just sneaked in from the outside, but as a talked to a some, they were actually doing their "stacation" (home vacation). I could not helped asking about what type of deals they get at this place since there are so many of them, and one person mentioned that at any hotel on Maui, the get around 30% off for just showing a driver's licence, one lady also told me that she has booked hotels for "out of state" friends before, so if you know somebody with a Hawaii driver's licence, most forget pliceline.com, that's your best discount right there....
