Hawaii Vacation Rentals Inc.

A month-long stay in the Kona or Kohala areas of the Big Island wouldn't be enough time to experience all the incredible scenery, vistas, waterfalls, hikes and small towns. There is very little modern development so you can get a real feel of how people have lived here for the last 150 years.

You can swim, snorkel, sunbathe, snow ski, parasail, hike in rainforests, kayak, paddle a Hawaiian canoe, watch whales, surf, go boogie boarding, scuba diving, fine dining, sail, go big game fishing, hunting, bird watching, take pictures, go in a submarine to see coral reefs, visit historical Hawaiian sites, take bus tours, boat tours, helicopter tours, hiking tours, sailboat tours, and mountain bike tours, go to a luau, learn how to hula and weave lauhala, get a tan and relax!

You can see volcanoes, lava, geothermal vents, Hawaiian rainforest, black sand, white sand, and green sand beaches, whales and dolphins, incredible tropical fish, turtles, moray eels, manta rays, rainbows, snow, rushing rivers, Majestic towering waterfalls, Hawaiian heiaus (temples), Hawaiian historical sites, huge ancient lava flows (and some more modern ones), geckos, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, hula dancing, deserts, The mountains of Hualalai (8,000 ft.) and Mauna Loa (13,000 ft.), jungles, tropical downpours, and an island community of friendly people.

Each of the following attractions are within a short drive from our rentals:

Hapuna Beach Park is one of the finest white-sand beaches in the world (top ten by Conde Nast). There is very little rain here, about 6" per year, so this beach has practically guaranteed great weather. Sunsets at Hapuna are incredible! Maui can be seen 35 miles away. A covered pavillion, picnic tables, showers, restrooms and a small hot dog and cold drink stand make this an easy beach to visit.

Spencer Beach Park is perfect if you have small children or don't like big waves. At Spencer Park is Pu'ukohola Heiau (temple), Hawaii's most famous and largest heiau.

Kawaihae is a commercial harbor, and home of the famous Kawaihae Canoe Club. A convenient store, galleries, a shop or two, a dive rental shop and a few restaurants are all located in a small shopping center.

Pololu Valley is a beautiful valley cut out of about 400 foot cliffs by a small river that still meanders through at the bottom. There is a quite steep 30-minute hike to get to the bottom.

Waimea town, also called Kamuela, sits at about 2500 feet elevation and has some extraordinary restaurants, fast food and everything in between.

Should lawyers’ blogs be classified as advertizing? I have wondered about that before, but never thought a state would consider passing a regulation to that effect. A committee of New York State’s Administrative Board of Courts has not only suggested such a regulation but also has proposed "extend[ing] court jurisdiction to out-of-state legal advertising that appears in New York." This has prompted a London-based lawyer to ask, "Could I be disciplined by New York state because there are pay-per-click adverts on my weblog or seminars, and these are interpreted as acts which ‘solicit legal services’?" Interesting issue. Would LDS-themed blogs written by lawyers that sometimes talk about legal issues and how they apply to the Church or Church history be subject to this regulation because they can be read in New York? Would Nate Oman, Kaimi, Steve Evans, Kevin Barney, ECS, Guy Murray, DMI Dave, A. Greenwood and other lawyers be subject to discipline for our participation on LDS blogs?

Preparing for Merrie Monarch
For the 2011 hula competition, hālau have been working feverishly to perfect their dances, complete costumes, and make final preparations. Soon they will be flying to Hilo where thousands of hula fans will converge during the Merrie Monarch Festival!
Many hālau have gone on trips to the famous places in their mele. On Kauaʻi, Kumu Hula Kapu Kinimaka took her dancers to the uplands of Kōkeʻe. And, Kumu Hula Hōkūlani and Larry De Rego took their hālau to visit Puʻu Poliʻahu at the summit of Mauna Kea.
Kumu Hula Kaleo Trinidad (Ka Leo O Laka I Ka Hikina O Ka Lā) reports, “Right now what we are trying to do is finish up all our last minute things. We just finished our blocking and how we are getting in and out. And we’re really hitting what we want to see. You know the technical stuff takes a long time – so right now it’s all about bringing the story forth in their face and expressions. We’re really set. There is pressure but we’re ready.”
“Girls have already gone to Hilo - already practiced on the stage. They are making their ti-leaf skirts now. We’re doing last minute details that have to be done or need to be changed because it has to be perfect. The girls are excited but the feeling is like ‘we just want to get to Hilo because it is really hard to concentrate on anything else now. We are just ready to be there. We want to go and do what we are prepared to do," says Kumu Hula Napua Makua (Hālau Nā Lei Kaumaka O Uka).
For participating hālau, this is just part of their lifelong mission to perpetuate hula. Of the many hula events and competitions held throughout the year, the Merrie Monarch Festival is considered to be the pinnacle.
Kumu Hula Keawe Lopes (Ka Lā ʻŌnohi Mai O Haʻehaʻe) says, “You know, being part of Merrie Monarch, being part of hālau is not something that I’ve ever taken for granted, and I hope that you know, our students never take for granted too. It’s like training for the Olympics, like everybody says. We always say, ‘how do Olympians get as good as they are?’ It’s because they take time to practice, and they love what they do.”
