Creating more of Waikiki’s Beaches

HSadmin — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 22:59:32 +0000

After a two and a half year permitting process, a three-month project to widen the shoreline from the west end of the Kuhio Beach wall, near the Duke Kahanamoku statue, to the Royal Hawaiian hotel will begin in the coming weeks. Sand will be pumped off shore and “returned” to the beach, two drain lines will also be removed allowing for better flow without that impediment. The project is scheduled from January through March 2012 and will have temporary, partial beach closures of parts of Kuhio Beach, plenty of beach will remain available for your enjoyment.

A more detailed report can be viewed from the ABC 4, KITV newscast below.

Stellar Travel Advisor Kari Mollan Checks Out Disney’s New Hawaii Resort, Aulani

HSadmin — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 18:37:53 +0000

It’s no big secret, I am a huge Disney fan. So, when they opened the new Aulani hotel in Hawaii, I was anxious to check it out. I recently stayed 3 nights during their grand opening weekend in September 2011 and was not disappointed. The attention to detail and respect for the Hawaiian culture was fabulous. The rooms are large and well appointed with really comfortable beds, too! There is an amazing pool area with waterslides, a lazy river, children's play structure, etc. Located only 1/2 hour from Honolulu, Aulani is a great alternative to the rush and crowds of Waikiki. I would recommend this to anyone who appreciates a fantastic property on gorgeous beach with a little Disney magic included…
