Honeymoon: almost a CHECK!! *OPINIONS NEEDED PLEASE!*

Honeymoon: almost a CHECK!! *OPINIONS NEEDED PLEASE!*

OK so we are going to book our HM like ANY day now-- just need to make sure everything is in order. We really went all out on this one. We were going to hold back but we realized that after the wedding Vinny is going into hardcore Medical School mode and we won't be able to do ANYTHING for like four years.
So his parents were like, you guys need to really treat yourselves because you both are going to be working SO hard for the next few years (me working full time to support us and Vinny in school 24/7).

So now that you know the background a bit and why we are spending more than we probably should be- what do you guys think of this itinerary?? Does everything look in order here?

San Diego: 3 nights at The Town & Country Resort
Oahu (Honolulu): 3 nights at The Outrigger Reef on the beach
Kauai: 3 nights at The Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa
The Big Island: 3 nights at Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort
Maui: 6 nights at The Hyatt Regency Resort & Spa

*Each place includes a rental car except Oahu b/c it is not needed on that island. Each room is an ocean view w/ balcony and I upgraded us for the last one (The Hyatt) and we got the Club Service which means you get concierge and a 'butler' service which is really cool (plus daily extra ammenities).

I think that I included everything... the total number of days is 18... but like I said, we will probably not be going on another vacation for like EVER because life will take over (med school, then house, then kids, then death) lol but seriously!

What do you guys think? Worth it? Should we just go for our lungs b/c I mean-- it's our HM and we will never get to travel like this again??

Any info would be the best!

thanks so much! i was getting scared for a minute-- i don't want to come off like a spoiled brat or anything... it's just that we have been working so hard already and it will only get more and more-- IDK, i just think we-- and esp my FH-- deserve it.

My sister stayed in the same hotels in Oahu and Maui and said they were amazing. We are also looking into those for ours. It sounds great. You should have a great honeymoon!!

Sounds like so much fun!! Go for it girl! I am in medical school and I can definitely tell you - the further you get things only get more rigorous/time-consuming, so take the time to endulge yourself whenever you get a chance!!

Again... I want to go with you.

Having never BEEN to Hawaii ( ), it sounds like a DREAM to me!! PERFECT!

The ONLY place I know is San Diego. I was there for the Yankee playoffs in '98. Myself, and the Yankees, stayed at the Hyatt. It was GORGEOUS. I would recommend THAT place, if you can. Right on the water. Marketplace downstairs.

Other than that, that's all I can offer you! Just, um... TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!!

Good luck!!!

I say go for it while you can, especially since it'll be a while before you can go anywhere! I wish we could decide on where to go!
