Great Hawaii Vacations is more than a travel agency that coordinates travel arrangements. It is an agency of dedicated employees committed to creating vacation experiences. They exemplify the spirit of aloha and their love of the islands through their commitment to providing exceptional Hawaiian vacations for all their clients. This has been instilled within each of their staff, which they consider their ohana, or family. To create treasured memories is their promise. The Hyatt Regency Waikiki Resort & Spa shares this same goal and values our partnership with Great Hawaii Vacations.

These wonderful individuals, who I have had the honor and privilege of knowing over the past 9 years, are so full of Aloha and love for our beautiful islands that their customers are guaranteed an excellent Hawaiian experience. The wonderful staff treat you as part of their Ohana (family) and it is this feeling they exude to each and every one of their customers. It is their attention to detail, their quest for new knowledge of the islands, and their customer service that keeps clients coming back year after year to them and to us at the beautiful Sheraton Maui Resort.

I have known the owners of Great Hawaii Vacations for over 17 years. Throughout these years, we have become good friends, enjoying our times together during their many trips to Kauai. At the same time, I have been watching their business grow and thrive. The secret to the company's success is the knowledge of Hawaii and the caring for each of their clients by every member of the staff. Their reservationists regularly come to Kauai to stay at our properties and to understand first-hand how we classify different categories at each of our resorts. Because their staff answers clients pre-trip questions with thoroughness and care, guests often find that their experiences exceed their expectations.

I first met the owners of Great Hawaii Vacations about 15 years ago when they stayed at my property, Honokeana Cove. I was impressed by their love of the islands and by them taking the time to explore Honokeana Cove. I am also very impressed that they continuously send employees/agents out to visit my property to find out what they are selling. I recommend Great Hawaii Vacations to anyone who is looking for just that perfect place to spend their vacation. When someone calls me from Great Hawaii Vacations to make a reservation at Honokeana Cove, I can always depend on the agents to choose the perfect unit to accommodate the client. And Great Hawaii Vacations always send us wonderful guests that match our Honokeana Cove personality. Your company books more reservations at Honokeana Cove than any other travel agency. We thank you for your honest and reliable business. Your company truly has that "Aloha" Spirit. Mahalo.
