Despite the grumpy review posted here which portrays this video as elitist, it is in fact based on the a series written for United Airlines' in-flight magazine, which is about mass market as you can get. Sure, you CAN locate a Days Inn in Honolulu, but why not show one of its better hotels, such as the Mandarin Oriental Kahala? Most of the readers here are going to pay a bundle to get to Hawaii, and might as well know what the top end of the market, in housing at least, looks like. Only three restaurants are portrayed: La Mer and Indigo are perennial favorites in Zagat, and Buzz's is a simple steak house on the windward side of the island. That said, this video recommends a number of charming things frequently overlooked by people getting a package tour look at the islands: the Mission Houses museum area downtown, Chinatown (although they could have mentioned the lei shops there), Lyon Arboretum and the Museum of Art. You could do a lot worse than follow the advice here.
