Kevin Costner's North Kohala hangout
during filming of "Waterworld" is on the list
of celebrity getaways.
Gabrielle and Rob DormanHave you ever dreamed of sleeping in Charo's bed in Haena? Of bathing in the same North Kohala shower where Kevin Costner washed away the daily grime of "Waterworld"? How about barbequing at Graham Nash's Hanalei Bay beachhouse? Or watching the sunset over Molokai from country singer Randy Travis' Maui abode?
You can, just get out that credit card.
Rob and Gabrielle Dorman's new book "Celebrity Getaways International" is a roster of more than 300 Celebrity locations for rent around the world that range in price from $35 to $15,000 a day. Rental prices are listed as economy ($35-$100), moderate ($10-$300), expensive ($500-$1,000), and very expensive ($1,000-$15,000).
There are 14 Hawaii offerings from $100-$300 a day for a Hilton Hawaiian Village room - Henry J. Kaiser is the link here - to thousands a day for the 1.5-acre Paul Mitchell estate in Lanikai. But the book's reach is worldwide:
There's gangster Al Capone's hideaway castle, now a spa, in the California desert where the movie, "The Player," was filmed. (Expensive to very expensive.)
Marlon Brando's island retreat in Tahiti. (Very expensive)
And what do you get for 15,000 big ones a day? Sir Richard Branson's private Caribbean island with private staff, fresh water pool and boat.
By the way, Charo's four-bedroom, six-bathroom Kauai house is in the expensive range as are the Nash and Travis abodes.
