Affordable Luxury for LGBTs
By Charles Karel Bouley
As one of the most popular international travel destinations, Hawaii offers incredible properties with unbeatable amenities for every taste, and Hawaii Condo Exchange is just the place to find the perfect property.
Condominiums offer a great way to stay in Hawaii, and they provide a much more private feel than major hotels. Condos also are cost-effective ways to have first-class luxury at affordable rates. They also provide savings for tour groups when it comes to dining and entertainment.
Created by Ray White more than a decade ago, Hawaiian Condo Exchange has solutions for every member of the LGBT community, whether for solo traveling, romantic getaways or group tours.
“We offer an island concierge service to all our clients,” said White. “We can handle everything from directing people to gay beaches, clubs, nightlife, shopping, dining — even island cultural events and festivals. And, of course, we can handle any private, gay excursion that the upscale traveler may require.”
Hawaii Condo Exchange offers “best buy” programs throughout the year, offering one-bedroom, beachfront Kauai Condos at the Lae Nani for less than $180 a night. The units are on the ground floor, are completely updated and are steps (literally) from the mythic sands and waters of one of the most sought-after paradises in the world.
On Maui, there’s the world-class Kapalua Resort, with one- and two-bedroom villas that offer 1,200 to 2,000 square feet of living space for as little as $219 a night for up to six guests. Great beaches, gourmet dining, snorkeling, a spa and close proximity to the Ritz Carlton make this an ideal location for visitors that want to be on a popular island that doesn’t necessarily have the big-city feel of Oahu.
“There’s nothing like the spaciousness of a beautifully appointed, oceanfront condo on the beaches of Waikiki, Maui, Kauai and the Big Island at such values,” White added. “It’s the chance to have an expensive suite in a hotel at a fraction of the cost, with similar amenities but without the rushed feeling.”
All of Hawaii Condo Exchange’s properties are located near shopping, which makes staying at them less expensive in the long run when compared to staying in a hotel. On Kauai, an evening of shopping at the local stores for food and wine could make for an exquisite, gourmet evening “at home” in front of a million dollar view for a fraction of the cost of dining in a restaurant. Plus, a condo makes the perfect place to continue the evening’s entertainment with one special friend... or five.
