A R T AC T I VAT I O N S

GREETINGS FROM HAWAII 'Alohilani commissioned the "Greetings from Hawaii" 50-by-75-foot ground-installation from artist Victor Ving and photographer Lisa Beggs as part of their "Greetings Tour," a cross-country mural project creating new city landmarks through public art. Visitors can see the mural from the resort's pool deck, Beachside tower lanais and soon Google Earth.


LIGHT MONUMENT The awe-inspiring beauty of Oahu dances across more than 100 feet of 'Alohilani's beach tower wall with exclusive projections by local a rtist, Joseph Pa'ahana. "Light Monument" is a large-scale short-f ilm series seen at Swell Pool and Bar depticing the natural wonder of the island through light in place.

DELIVERY Artist, Kris Goto, took inspiration from marine life, 'Alohilani's reforestation commitment and surf culture to create a whimiscal mural adjacent to the Monkeypod Kids' Club. Children can swim in the family pool alongside handpainted pufferfish and trees.

MAKAI As guests arrive at 'Alohilani, they're welcomed by a remarkable under-the-sea interpretation created by renowned New York sculptural illustrator, Nina Helms. The one-of-a-kind commissioned bouquet of coral that adorns the entire back wall of reception is titled "Makai," Hawaiian for "ocean."

A H A' U L A C LOA K For centuries, the Hawaiian islands were ruled by a council of 14 chiefs called the aha'ula. As part of 'Alohilani's partnership with the Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiative, the resort is home to a replica of an aha'ula cloak as a tribute to the Hawaiian heritage –and our promise to protect the islands we call home.

S I G N AT U R E E X P E R I E N C E S NORTH SHORE TREE PLANTING ‘Alohilani resides on land that belongs to Queen Lili’oukalani’s Trust and is named after one of her beachside cottages, meaning “heavenly brightness” or “royal light.” In honor of her legacy and a deep commitment to preserving Hawaii’s forests, ‘Alohilani has partnered with Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiative (HLRI), a non-profit organization committed to returning the indigenous koa, milo and sandalwood trees back to the Hawaiian Islands. By staying at ‘Alohilani, guests can contribute to these efforts. A $5 “tree fee” is added to each stay and goes straight to reforesting initiatives on Oahu and the Big Island of Hawaii. Guests are encouraged to visit HLRI’s Gunstock Ranch on Oahu’s beautiful north shore and plant their own tree. Scenic tree planting tours include horseback riding, helicopter and UTV tours. Each tree planted through HLRI is tagged with an individual radiofrequency identification chip that records everything from genetic makeup and health to the circumstances of the planting. Guests can track their tree throughout its lifetime.


On the Big Island, HLRI has planted more than 400,000 trees on 1,200 acres. It was designated by the World Wildlife Fund as the first Gold Standard Certified Forest Carbon Credit in North America, and remains the only koa carbon credit in the world. The forest is pumping clean oxygen into the atmosphere at an astonishing rate: one koa tree alone can offset a vacation for a family of four. ‘Alohilani, with the help of their guests, has pledged to pl ant 100,000 trees with HLRI, helping to revive Hawaii’s endangered hardwood species and rehabilitate a native ecosystem.


PLANT YOUR INTENTIONS The stars align at 'Alohilani where guest stays begin prior to arrival with an astrological phone reading including a noted copy of their chart as a path toward self-discovery. Upon arrival, guests dig a little deeper through guided visualization exercises, journaling session and creation of a Lifeboard Dreamboard. On a trip to the north shore, guests will end their trip by rooting their intentions into the soil with the planting of their very own tree in the 'Alohilani forest.

THRILLIST EXPERIENCE Through bold, thrill-seeking activities, the natural wonders of the island come to life with a spirited trip by land, sea and air. Guests tackle the rugged island terrain by foot above the north shore on private conservation land followed by a UTV ride to plant their very own native tree. The next day, guests embark on a 100% eco-friendly tour of the island's lively underwater world. By air, guests will take an extraordinary aerial experience hang-gliding off the north shore coast, showcasing the views of the island while feeling the freedom of flight.

BEACHSIDE PERSONAL SHOPPER The ultimate stress-free vacation shopping experience encourages guests to relax while managing gift-shopping, wrapping and shipping. 'Alohilani partnered with prestigious personal shopping expert, Kim Smith, to create the ultimate leisure vacation. Renowned as a shopping mecca with an unmatched combination of exclusive designer goods and one-of-a-kind finds, guests gain access to the best of Waikiki retail without ever having to step foot inside a store or stand in a line.
