Part 1: Maui
When my fiancé and I began researching Hawaii for our honeymoon in 2006, we just couldn’t bear to decide on an island or two, so we decided to break the mold of tradition and extend our honeymoon to three long weeks. We knew it would not only break the mold but our bankbook as well, but heck, we were getting married. You only do that once, right?

Our research was cut down immensely because we had one aspect of the trip decided for us already: Craig is an employee of the Sheraton Hotels family and we’d save a bundle staying at Sheraton Resorts if we could find them, which we did on three of the islands! We had already decided that where we couldn’t find room at a Sheraton, we’d stay in Bed and Breakfasts, because we heard the Hawaiians love breakfast as much as Alaskans do.

There aren’t many B&Bs that are fully accessible in Hawaii, but we only had to find one on Maui, and we found one online located in the cute little village they call Makawao. The PiliAloha has a small, one-story, accessible studio cottage off of their main building, and the bathroom inside had been completely remodeled to ADA standards. The entire floor of the bathroom was sloped into a drain, and the rest of the room was the shower! There was a huge tub as well, and a roll-under sink. Not like your typical ADA bathroom, this one made us giggle at the sight of its uniqueness. The owners were absolutely lovely, even providing us with a compact disc for the Road to Hana drive, and breakfast was served in our unit.
