I did this for the entire month of June (I’m also born and raised in Hawaii so it was easier for me to get what I needed while on quarantine cuz I had family to bring stuff to me) and I have a couple of things to share:
1. You 100% need to comply with the 14-day stay your ass in the house 24/7 quarantine rule when you get to Hawaii. No leaving for groceries, food pick up, car rides, no taking a walk to the beach, taking a walk outside at all. If you cannot do this, do not go to Hawaii and stay home. Oahu is currently on a complete lockdown and has been devastated by COVID because of tourists who could not follow this simple ask. The police will cite you, fine you, and if you’re troublesome, demand you leave the state if they find that you’ve left your residence. Locals in the neighborhood you’re staying in will know that you’re not from the area, will know you’re staying in a rental, and watch to make sure you aren’t breaking quarantine rules and call the cops on you for non-compliance. They are this way because they’re trying to survive, so locals may not come off as friendly as you’d hope for them to be. For example, the entire island of Kauai has nine ICU beds, so the entire island is extremely vigilant and suspicious of anyone that is there to vacation out of fear of COVID spread. They simply don’t have the resources to deal with an outbreak.
2. Dealing with the time difference got progressively harder the longer I was there. Waking up at 2am to do 8am east coast phone calls and court hearings was physically painful
3. For the first 2 weeks you’re going to need everything delivered to you, and since the islands are experiencing shortages of a lot of things, don’t be surprised if your grocery list isn’t always able to be fulfilled. We ordered from Safeway and many times things like garlic, poke, green vegetables were out.
4. The Wifi isn’t great
5. Most things are closed. Right now all beaches, parks, and hiking trails are closed so depending on how bad COVID is when you get there, snorkeling may not even be an option for you. I didn’t go to the beach for the entire month I was there.
Yeah sure thing! Happy to help 👍🏼
STAY HOME. Jeeze Louise people
I dont know where youre coming from, but the time difference is a potential pain in the ass...right now (Hawaii doesnt do daylight savings) theyre THREE hours behind California. Later it’ll be two. So if youre in NY that could be getting up for zoom meetings at 3 am.
Also, I havent been to Hawaii during the virus times, but I think it would be a VASTLY different place. Without the tourism economy, it could get pretty depressed pretty quick. I think this idea sounds cool on paper but might feel very different when you get there (and emerge from two week quarantine, which theyre doing).
Sorry to sound like a bummer. So much sucks right now.
Go and enjoy! Probably depends on the firm, but I traveled globally last year, and was able to open everything I needed for work in Asia in Europe
Everything Attorney 1 said along with a few others:
1) In some hawaiian counties, you are not allowed to quarantine in a vacation rental You must go to a hotel for the first 14 days, and then can move to a rental afterwards. Make sure you do all of the research needed and get verification of where you are staying. Make sure that you have a local contact who can get you groceries—some outer islands do not have delivery service. Note that the state will require this information before letting you in, and they WILL turn you back at the airport if you are in an unverified rental or cannot tell them how you will get groceries. This is no joke. The fines are $5000 per person and they can put you in jail up to a year. You also will not be allowed a rental car until you can prove to the companies that you have quarantined.
2) Hawaii is experiencing its worst outbreak of Covid right now. With tourism closed, ICU beds across the state are 65% full and the state is trying to get the situation under control. Many locals have lost their jobs or are currently on furlough and using short term food banks and social services. They have had no income for 6 months So the unintentional unfriendliness that Attorney1 mentions is magnified by the fact that people are literally struggling, in many cases, to feed their families. Coming as a happy-go-lucky YOLO tourist into the middle of that is tone deaf, as these are close knit island communities that are trying to pull together to survive. Be very sensitive to how you might be perceived, and have empathy for the community you are entering.
3) if anyone in your party is at risk for Covid, be aware that medical care is not what it is on the mainland. There is a scarcity of ICU beds as mentioned, but also fewer specialists, depending on which island you are on.
4) Each person has their own definition of ‘worth it’, but coming for a month leaves only ~15 days outside of the restricted 14 that are in quarantine.
5) it may be changing in the next 6 weeks, but for now many restaurants and businesses are closed, most tourist-facing items like tours/trips are unavailable, and the beaches and trails are currently closed.

You may not be able to log in to certain applications if the IP address is not enabled for those. A month is not too long before tax implications kick in but would check with your company first.

My friend went for a few weeks to get away from Phoenix summer. She loved it, a lot was closed but she mostly stayed in nature. Her husband is a pilot so already in the air every week. I wouldn’t go, but everyone has different mental needs this year.
Dude go! Once in a lifetime chance to work from Hawaii for a month. Just take care of your health, wear a mask, and make sure your IP shit will be enabled
Headed to Puerto Rico in a month! Kinda had the same idea, yolo 🤷♂️
