Where to Go with Your Tax Refund: Hawaii

Tax day is coming, and you are excited not because you look forward to sifting through receipts and credit card statements, but because you're getting a fat refund...probably. The economy may be on its way back up, but you should try to stretch that tax refund as far as you can.

You just finished your taxes and you are in the black with a nice chunk of change for a refund. If you could pick any place in the United States to blow your loot, Hawaii would surely be somewhere on your top-three list. It's the closest thing to paradise within our borders.

The state is also a prime spot to pick up all-inclusive packages from such places as Travelzoo and Kayak Deals, which makes it a great destination to make the most of your refund.

According to our buddy @airfarewatchdog, there are quite a few under-$450 roundtrip flights to Hawaii from many US Cities. But if you can't decide among the six islands�Kauai, Oahu, the Big Island, Molokai, Lanai and Maui�there's a 15-day cruise that will island hop. The $1,299 cruise includes meals and accommodations. Be one of the first 50 to reserve your cabin on the Celebrity Century, and you'll score a $250 credit to use on the boat.

Hawaii is good to visit year-round. If you travel between now and November, you'll find it's warmer�averaging between 75 to 88 degrees�and drier. Take advantage of the warm weather and check out Hawaii's newest UNESCO World Heritage site, own list of Heritage Sites, volcanoes or just drive the road to Hana. Or you can just be way less ambitious and just veg out at the black-sand beach with a pina colada.
