My husband and two children had a wonderful experience with Greg McCartney at Ko Olina last week at a privately booked show with him ("Stars Above Hawai'i"). We have seen this show also last year during a visit to Aulani, through the Pau Hana Room. This is such a unique, educational and entertaining way to spend an evening--stargazing through Greg's very excellent telescope and identifying common constellations (both in the standard way of naming them and the Hawai'ian equivalents, with the relevant folklore). For anyone considering if this is worth the money, it definitely is! Greg is so knowledgeable, and he will tailor his discussion of the sky to your understanding, answer any questions and even help you take photographs of things through the lens of his telescope (we had a full moon, which was quite bright and it deters from looking at very distant objects--but we have excellent photos of the moon surface, with stunning detail of the features!). We were able to see some constellations that we could never view from Canada, like the Southern Cross! Our family had him all to ourselves, which was just so excellent, and our kids (ages 10 and 13) really enjoyed this and learned something! Mahalo nui loa for a special night!

Had the top notch snorkel gear delivered by Jason to my wife and I right to the snorkel spot we were starting at, and kept it for five days to snorkel around Oahu. Slight hiccup on drop off (the resort employees didn’t want to hold onto the gear for pickup, even though it sounded like Hokua Beach Supply comes twice a day for pickups and drop offs). Even then, Jason picked it up from me right at the resort we were staying at the next morning. If planning to drop off your gear somewhere without meeting up directly, make sure beforehand that it will work, or make sure you have time to arrange a direct meet up. They are flexible on the location and the times, and you can’t beat having quality gear delivered to you and picked up in a prompt and professional manner.

Our family really enjoyed the entire experience!! From the excellent food, to the musicians, hula dancers, and the fire dancers, we enjoyed the entire show!! As someone who was able to bring his family together for this trip after not being close for the last 2-3 years, the speech at the end about family, love, and the importance of those ideas in the Hawaiian culture, it was especially meaningful!! Thank you all!!!
