Hyatt has long been welcoming guests to Hawaii with authentic aloha spirit, originating with Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa, one of the first resorts to open its doors on the islands 35 years ago. Since that time, Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa and Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa have also opened world-class resorts, establishing a prominent regional presence that the properties are renewing through extensive renovations and upgrades at all three resorts.

Hyatt was one of the first major hotel brands to put down roots in Hawaii, and the upgrades at all three properties on Oahu, Maui and Kauai underscore the region as one of our premier resort destinations, said Carlos Cabrera, Hyatts senior vice president of field operations.

Highlights from the renovations at each of the resorts include:

Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa

Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa is nearing the completion of an in-depth $ 13 million renovation that when finished in fall 2011 will reintroduce guests to the classic Hawaiian hospitality of a bygone era. The refreshed resort will embody the graciousness and authenticity of Hawaii at the turn of the 20th century, while creating a modern and dynamic entertainment center with the addition of two new restaurants, Shor American Seafood Grill and Japengo; SWIM, a new poolside lounge and bar; an upgraded pool deck; and the new oceanfront Regency Club Lounge.

Fresh on the heels of the renovation, the property has also announced extensive new programming to offer guests authentic Hawaiian cultural, arts and entertainment experiences that represent both the old and new Hawaii. As a gateway between the east and the west, the resort pays homage to its proximity to Asia with Asian art, culture and cuisine, anchored by the new Japengo restaurant, due to open in October. The west-facing Diamond Head Tower beckons groups for cultural events steeped in Hoonanea, the welcoming, relaxing, peaceful aloha spirit harkening back to early 20th century Hawaii. The Hoonanea gathering space is the resorts unique area for private events, accommodating up to 100 people and anchored by a new exhibition-style kitchen that infuses events with an engaging, interactive culinary component.

Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa

When Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa opened in 1980, it set the bar for high-end resort destinations and invited guests to an oceanfront experience embodying the essence of Maui. The propertys trendsetting indoor-outdoor atrium-style design, extensive gardens, water playgrounds and distinctive art collection created a resort-as-destination model that has since been emulated around the world. More than 30 years later, the property has emerged from a $ 15 million transformation, reinforcing its reputation for offering luxury accommodations and service in a setting of rare natural beauty. The 806 newly-renovated guestrooms reflect modern Hawaiian luxury, with a sleek yet comfortable style expressed through plantation-style platform beds, white linens, boldly-colored textiles, custom lighting and notable artwork.

The revitalized culinary experience offered at Hyatt Regency Mauis recently-opened signature restaurant, Japengo, has elevated the property as an even hotter island destination. The restaurants hip, sultry vibe and innovative Pacific Rim cuisine are accentuated by an open-air garden lounge, Moon Bar, and Sushi Lounge, where guests can watch resident sushi chefs hand-roll sushi and nigiri to order. Japengos Executive Chef Matt Smith emphasizes fresh locally-sourced produce for an exciting menu that balances authentic Asian culinary techniques with contemporary Hawaii flavors.

Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa

Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa recently celebrated its 20th anniversary with the unveiling of a $ 45 million guestroom renovation to all of its 602 rooms, which now boast island-inspired d

Hawaiian Luau Party

I was thinking it could be an inside/outside party with lots of food and games. I do not have a pool, which kind of makes me think a luau party without a pool isn’t a good idea.

The activities would be including: xbox, dancing, eating, volleyball, limbo, trampoline, movies playing inside &more.

I would greet every guest at the door with leis, to make sure everyone knows how much I appreciate them coming to my party.

I would have a ton of decorations around the yard and in my house including:
personalized banner
lanterns/tiki torches
inflatable palm trees
flowers
beach balls
candles
streamers
pineapple centerpieces
balloons
etc.

For food, I would have a hollowed out watermelon to hold fruit salad, mock-cocktails, Hawaiian pizza, &the usual chips, candy, etc. I would put the food in sand buckets, instead of just bowls.

Some other ideas I was considering is a photo backdrop so I can have a lot of memories from this party and possibly hire a DJ, a local band, or just stick to a play list I make. Both of those might not be possible, but they are in the air.

My whole party theme and location is still undecided at the moment and I really don’t want it to be a lame party, so any ideas and your honest opinion would be greatly appreciated:) I want everything to be perfect on my special day.
