Prep & Land: Answering FAQ’s of our First Group Trip
Hey Momma Girl! Are you planning a family trip but have a ton of questions before you book? I’ve got you covered with some of the most common questions about this dreamy destination, from family-friendliness to travel time, and everything in between. Whether you’re looking for tips on keeping the kids entertained during the flight, the lowdown on accommodation options, or the best time to visit, you’ll find all the answers here! Let’s dive into your ultimate guide for a stress-free, unforgettable trip.
1. Is the destination family-friendly?
Absolutely! This spot is family-friendly to the max! Whether you're traveling with little ones, teens, or the whole crew, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. From activities that'll keep the kids entertained to chill spots for the adults to unwind, you’re all set for an epic family adventure!
2. What’s the travel time?
Haha, I wish I could give you a straight answer, but since y’all don’t live at my house, my 5-hour flight could be your 9-10 hour journey! But here’s the good news: with the right prep, any kiddo can handle the trip like a pro. I’ve got a ton of tips and tricks to help you survive and thrive during your flight, whether you’re headed to or from Hawaii. Check out my YouTube and Podcast channels for all the goodies that’ll make those hours fly by (pun totally intended!).
3. What’s the cost?
What’s better than a vacation? An all-inclusive one! So, what does that mean? It means you get your room, food, and most of the hotel’s activities all wrapped up in one nice, neat price! No surprise costs sneaking up on you. I’ve laid out all the prices for this trip on my website: www.prepandland.com, where you can see everything and check out your payment options. Easy peasy! Now, let’s get you prepped and landed in paradise!
4. Are there safe swimming options?
Yes ma’am! This hotel is bringing the splash-tastic vibes! It’s got not just one, but its own swimming pools and fun splash zones for the kiddos (or the kid at heart!). Oh, and did I mention the private lagoon? Yup, you and the fam can snorkel and swim with tropical fish right there—no need to leave the resort. So grab those goggles and dive in for an underwater adventure!
5. What are the health considerations?
Great question! While Hawaii is part of the U.S., there are still some recommended vaccines to consider, especially if you want to stay in tip-top shape during your island adventure. The CDC and WHO suggest getting vaccines like hepatitis A, hepatitis B, polio, flu, COVID-19, and good ol' MMR (measles, mumps, rubella). There are also some others like Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis), chickenpox, and even shingles for those who need them. It’s all about staying safe while you soak up that sun!
Also, if you’re planning to travel soon, keep in mind that Hawaii has its own safety protocols—like a COVID-19 test or quarantine requirement—so be sure to check out the Hawaii SafeTravels program before you go. Better safe than sorry, right? Mahalo, and happy travels!
6. What’s the weather like?
April in Hawaii? Oh, it’s prime time! You’ve got warm weather, with an average temp of 84°F (perfect for those beach days), and the ocean’s at a lovely 77°F—ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or just floating around in pure bliss. Plus, April means fewer crowds, so you’ll have more of that paradise to yourself. The only thing to watch out for? Some bigger waves up on the North Shore, thanks to lingering winter swells, but as long as you're not trying to be the next big surf champ, you’re golden. Overall, April is one of the best times to visit and soak up all those island vibes!
7. Are there childcare services available for when I want alone time?
Oh, absolutely! There’s a kids and teen club where your little ones can burn off all that extra energy and hang out with other kids while you sneak in some 'you time.' And if you’re dreaming of a grown-woman night out, they’ve got babysitting services available for an extra cost, so you can enjoy your evening stress-free!
8. Are there excursions or tours that are engaging for everyone?
You bet! There are awesome activities for the whole family, both on and off the property! Whether you’re into beachside fun or exploring beyond, we’ve got you covered. Want the full scoop? Just head to the website below for all the details. Adventure awaits!
9. What’s the accommodation like? Are there family suites or amenities that cater to kids?
Yes, ma’am! They’ve got suites for everyone—whether it’s just you and one other or a whole crew of up to 9 guests! Choose from standard rooms or go big with one- or two-bedroom villas. And like I mentioned before, this place is super kid-friendly! For all the details on what this spot has to offer, just click here.
