Heck, I travel to Hawaii with my favorite Scanpan. Even when we go for a week! 
You never know what sorts of cookware the rental unit will have, and we must have eggs for breakfast 
. I also pack a stick of frozen butter (it arrives frozen), small bottles of TJ’s olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and my favorite grilling spices. That is for a week of travel. Sometimes, I pack my Casper pillow. It rolls into a small tube.
I have a few dresses I only wear in Hawaii. They are always ready to be packed into the garment bag.
