Holiday Highlights

From keiki-friendly tennis camp to surfboard water polo – the sport made iconic by famed surfer Duke Kahanamoku – this holiday season holds tradition and adventure in equal measure.

Surf Shack at Mauna Lani

Surfboard Water Polo

A game once played by famed surfer Duke Kahanamoku in the early 1900s, Surfboard Water Polo combines the strength of paddle boarding with the skill of water polo. Uncover a knack for new hobbies with the help of our Kainalu Pros along Mauna Lani’s oceanfront, where fun in the sun is charged with the spirit of friendly competition.

Stars and S’mores

Gather around a beachside campfire as you share stories and laughs over nostalgic campfire smells. Roast marshmallows to sticky and sweet perfection, arrange the perfect graham cracker to chocolate ratio, and gaze at the golden sun as it sets into the Pacific. Sometimes, the most simple moments are the ones that yield immeasurable gratitude.

Keiki Tennis Camp

Jumpstart your little ones’ mornings with Keiki Tennis Camps, a Mauna Lani holiday tradition offering training sessions geared towards little ones between the ages of 4 and 13. While fostering a love for the game, your keiki (children) will practice their serve with one-on-one competitions, round robin tournaments and more. No experience necessary, sunscreen and a smile required.
