If you have a week for your Hawaii vacation, I recommend choosing just one island to visit. That said, if it’s all you can manage, it’s better than no time in Hawaii! Some visitors do visit Hawaii for 4-5 days, but it’s a long way from the US mainland (or anywhere!) for a short trip, and you’ll spend the first few days adjusting to the time zone change.
I think this is a good minimum time for a trip, although 10-14 days is better if you want to visit multiple islands. The average stay in Hawaii is about 7 days. Back to Contents How Long to Stay in Hawaii
