Live Pono in Hawai'i
Balance, wellbeing and a living state of harmony – living pono is a Hawai’ian philosophy that encourages living with integrity and good intentions.
For us as visitors to this sacred land, it’s about exploring the islands with mālama (care), being low key and local, and treating the landscape, heritage and people with respect. We’ve created a holiday to O’ahu and Kaua’i that inspires you to take on a slower pace and connect with communities and the landscapes they call home. We’ve set aside four nights on each island, but this is all about taking it easy so idling on either island (or both) a little longer is heartily encouraged.
This is just a suggested itinerary so you can completely tailor make your holiday, choosing where you stay and for how long, and if you'd like to add a USA city stopover to or from Hawai'i. Any sightseeing mentioned is just a recommendation and should be arranged locally.

Itinerary overview
Days 1 to 4
O’ahu
Travelling pono on O’ahu is all about embracing the island’s culture, deep-seated heritage and natural wonders with as little impact as possible. Add an all-in Go O’ahu Pass on to your holiday and you can experience a luau, learn how to make a lei or give the art of fire dancing a go – all without the need for a hire car. You could also go on a guided North Shore hike and explore Kualoa Ranch where you’ll learn about how the ‘land is chief, man is its servant’ (He aliʻi ka ʻāina, he kauwā ke kanaka). There are enough farmer’s markets on the island that you could visit a different one every day and shopping and eating locally is always the way to go. Up on the island’s north coast is the unmissable Waimea Valley, a spot where natural beauty, rich Hawai’ian spiritual heritage and farming traditions combine.
Recommended Hotels
The Ritz-Carlton O'ahu, Turtle Bay
Whether you’re diving into some water sports or indulging in the spa, this place proves you can have both action and relaxation in one epic location.
Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa
Moana Surfrider displays a certain style on these shorelines you may not find at some of its neighbour. Think Victorian-era design combined with palm trees and hula lessons.

The Laylow Waikiki, Autograph Collection
Travel up the escalators into chic, fresh design that still pays homage to its Hawaiian roots.
Days 5 to 8
Kaua’i
The sense of how spectacular the world is – and how important it is to protect it at all costs – couldn’t be stronger than it is on Kaua’i. It’s a land of soaring sea cliffs and deep and green valleys, thundering falls and golden beaches. Then there are the hulu traditions on the the Nāpali Coast, Hawai’i legends at the Menehune Fish Pond, and traditional Hawai’ian communities serving up some sensational local sustenance. You can interrupt your lazy Kaua’i days with foodie tours, state park visits - Hā'ena State Park on the island’s north shore is a bit of a Kuoni favourite – and wildlife refuge vistas.
