How To Contact Us.

Kahala Initiative for Sustainability, Culture and the Arts, was created by The Kahala Hotel & Resort. We are deeply committed to preserving Oahu's land, ocean and culture for generation to come. With your support, KISCA provides a brignter and more beautiful future for Hawaii.

In the early years, The Kahala was nicknamed “Kahally-wood” by reporters because the resort was a favorite among high profile sports and entertainment celebrities.
Over the years, we’ve welcomed such starts as Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, Carol Burnett, Rex Harrison (who spent his honeymoon at the resorts), Stevie Wonder (who swam with the dolphins) and Merv Griffin (who conducted an impromptu sing-along in the hotel bar with the likes of Helen Reddy, Eydie Gorme , and Jim Nabors), Liza Minelli, Eva Gabor, Lucille Ball, Helen Hayes, and Julie Andrews were among the guests along with John Wayne, Jack Lemmon, Tony Bennett, Martin Sheen and Mick Jagger. A new generation of celebrity icons such as George Clooney, Sir Elton John, Alec Baldwin, Sean Penn, Dr. Dre, Michelle Pfeiffer, Eminem, Drew Barrymore, Jay-Z, and Rhianna have made The Kahala their preferred Hawaiian vacation heaven.
