We do our best to make our guests comfy, including any-everything short of air conditioning which isn’t terribly planet-friendly.

Last week we had a contractor come in and install a solar powered roof fan and BOY what a difference that has made. The room is cooler by far, making sleeping all the more pleasant.

We are SO impressed that in the coming days we’ll get one installed in Makai.

UPDATE: both our Garden Suites are now much cooler, thanks to solar fans having been installed at the top peak of the 14′ ceiling. Warm air rises and now, goes outside. Yippee!

Sweet dreams, dearest guests.

Last month we took the leap to “get off the grid” and had a photovoltaic solar system installed, which means we now have the ability to harvest all our energy from the sun! WOO HOO!!!

SO, the next time you’re on your computer or taking a shower or doing a load of laundry at Hale ‘Nalo, you can ENJOY the fact that you’re using only the sun’s energy!

Mahalo for your support!

“PV” – the “new” beautiful!

Colton Farms, located in Waimanalo, has started a petting zoo. In it you’ll see wild pigs, lots of chickens, geese and even a few burros. This is a serious stop, folks.

Beat The Heat is the place to be tomorrow night. Go rub elbows with anyone who is anyone in the honolulu art scene. Enjoy eats from celebrated Town, music by Kalani and the Cruisers, or take a tour of Boardshorts: A Perfect Fit (meet docents inside the gallery) and participate in art activities for a chance to win prizes. Groovy night in store no doubt.

Check out this list I found online. Although there are ads tucked in, it’s a pretty darned good list and I give it my thumbs up!
