The staff to guest ratios, personal service, attention to whatever you need, and the small size of the property are all things I appreciate at Aman's.
So my question is, does anything like this exist in Hawaii? And if not, I am at a total loss for why. Seems to be a great opportunity.
Thanks..
actually the four seasons ,
hua lalai that is , was originally a Regent which has Aman "stock & pedigree " & " heritage " as it were ...
and thats not all .......the
Halekulani was also very much a Regent linked or even managed - the link was Bob Burns - [ IIRC ] back in the days..of genuine gracious service !!
but the closest Aman got to a property in Hawaii was
the HANA MAUI ...at least after years of negotiations ... it would have been a wonderful AMAN
