Yes, Kama’aina rate is for locals, I am familiar with it. They usually can’t afford tourist prices - look at their wages. I guess because I learned plein air art, I stayed for several months at a time and my poor artist friends shared their secrets of cheap living. Like you help harvest at a farm and you get some of the food. Shop at grocery stores where it is cheapest. Etc. Accommodations are the most expensive - you have to look around for that, and near a Bus stop, which used to have a senior pass for the month for $5. Don’t know what it is now. Bus goes everywhere on the island on Oahu.
