Hawaii has always been a place that I have wanted to visit in my life and being able to travel to Hawaii and stay in a five star resort would be an amazing experience for me. I have often thought of what the perfect type of resort would be for me to stay at when the time had finally come for me to be able to visit Hawaii. I want something that is unique and fun that offers many activities and exciting experiences to partake in during my stay. Being right on the beach is also an obvious request of mine, coming from the desert I want to be as close to the water at all times and soak up as many Hawaiian sun rays as I possibly can. After doing some research on places to stay at while traveling to Hawaii I stumbled upon a resort that caught by attention and kept it. The Kahala Hotel and Resort in Honolulu Hawaii offers all of the amenities and services I am looking for in a wonderful location right on the water and it has become my future destination when I go to Hawaii.

The Kahala is located in an extremely exclusive enclave in Hawaii and is extremely popular for famous celebrity stars and sports heroes due to its tucked away appeal. Since it offers an exclusive location and extraordinary service, The Kahala quickly rose in popularity after it opened in 1964. The beauty and luxury that comes with staying at The Kahala has aided in its reputation for …show more content…

Holding my beach bag in my hand and slipping my Ray Ban sunglasses on with my other, I flip-flopped down the airspace. Overhead I heard the screams of gulls and the chatter of the small fluffy birds. I suddenly realized I had arrived to Hawaii. This trip was such an unforgettable vacation for me because I got to witness the beauty of nature that Hawaii has to offer.

  • American Hawaii

    American Hawaii Hawaii is known for its beautiful beaches, it’s nice year-round weather, and its culture. Thousands of vacationers come to Hawaii each year to get away from the stressful city and relax. But do they know how cruel the Americans were to the natives? Do they know how we corrupted their culture and their religion? Do they know how Hawaii really became a state? Probably not. When most people think of Hawaii, they think of happy Hawaiian babes hula dancing and palm trees swaying in the warm breeze. Hawaii has still held on to many of their traditions although they were invaded by Americans. But you have to go to a museum to see their old way of life. Hawaii is now populated mostly by Americans. Native Hawaiians have adapted to our American lifestyle and much of their old traditions and beliefs are lost in history books. America dominated over the Hawaiians just as they did with the Native Americans. The Hawaiians didn’t even stand a chance against big brother. They probably feel the same way towards America just as a child does with stubborn parents. Now I will tell you about the history of Hawaii so you will see how the United States came to annex Hawaii. Hawaii was first inhabited by the Polynesians. They came in canoes from other islands around the pacific. They called the new found island "Hawaii", which means "home" in Polynesian language. Hawaii was their home until the white man came in and took advantage of these simple, happy aborigines. The corruption of this unique and fragile culture first started when Captain James Cook ran into the islands on January 18, 1778. After Cook’s discovery, many other foreigners (mostly American) visited the islands. They brought clothes, livestock, orange trees, horses weapons and souvigners. Foreigners also brought with them a handful of deadly diseases such as smallpox, measles, syphilis, tuberculosis, and whooping cough. During the time period of Cook’s arrival in 1778 to 1820, the population of Hawaii dropped from 300,000 to 135,000 due to the diseases! Another problem was the introduction of alcohol. Like the native americans, Hawaiians were not immune to alcohol. Hawaiian’s were very sensitive to alcoholism. Hawaiians religion was a very complex one with many gods. They worshiped idols and they belived in many f...

    On the way I noticed that all of the hotel rooms and service desk were all in a small corner by the front entrance. It seems like there is more of an emphasis on the casino business than the resort portion. The oasis was very easy to get in to, because I didn’t even need a room key. The oasis was very beautiful. There were two main pools. One was heated and it was half indoors and half out. The second was much larger with small waterfalls surrounding it and other scenery. It was starting to get dark at this point, but the pool area was lit up with various lights and torches. There was a few people who were out there enjoying the pool. From where I was standing I could look up and see both of the Choctaw tower and I thought it was very picturesque.

Like most Americans, this woman uses a discourse that has been shaped by tourist advertisements and souvenirs. The woman's statement implies that Trask resembles what the tourist industry projects, as if this image created Hawaiian culture. As Trask asserts, Hawaiian culture existed long before tourism and has been exploited by tourism in the form of advertisements and items such as postcards. Along with the violence, endangered environment, and poverty, this exploitation is what the tourist industry does not want to show. However, this is the Hawai'i Haunani-Kay Trask lives in everyday. "This is Hawai'i, once the most fragile and precious of sacred places, now transformed by the American behemoth into a dying land. Only a whispering spirit remains" (Trask 19).
