Re: Marriott System (by DrRonald H.):
Hawaii is really several islands, and your own tastes will determine that which is preferred. A California or Alaska resident "might" like to visit on an annual basis, but the clientel who can pay for Marriott in Hawaii will also want to travel in Europe, Scandanavia, Asia, ....
It is probably a mistake to tie up the capital in Hawaii because "wanderlust " soons becomes a reality.
We are in/out of Kauai and Maui, and we own 10 weeks of timeshare at second market prices. Why pay the big bucks for "trading power." And Marriott is really the way to travel. But use some brainpower. There are plenty of ways to trade w/o spending the big $$$.
Remember Ko'Olina is on Oahu, and I can do Southern California at any time. There is not enough time in this life to visit Oahu. You really need to experience Kauai and Maui.
