Staying Connected to the Hale Pau Hana Community

Published on:

June 9, 2022

A photograph of the lawn or a familiar view from a lanai can bring a visit back to mind. In this community story, guests shared what they remembered about Hale Pau Hana and what they were looking forward to on their next stay.

The comments and photographs were collected for the original June 2022 article. References to an upcoming visit describe the guest's plans at that time.

A photograph that takes you back

HPH's Facebook and Instagram pages give guests a place to share their photographs between visits. Sometimes a brief comment says enough:

“I always remember the peaceful times over there.”

The beach or the lawn?

For the original article, HPH asked followers whether they would choose an umbrella on the beach or a lounge chair on the lawn. Michelle Peacey did not see a reason to choose just one.

“Both!! Love them both and can’t wait to do it again!”

During a stay, shared seating is available for use while you are there. Keep the property furniture on the grounds and follow the house rules so other guests can enjoy the same spaces.

Looking forward to a first visit

Photographs can also help a first-time guest picture a stay. Jamie Norton wrote:

For another first visit, read Deanna's family story. The details of an individual trip are often more useful than a general promise of a perfect holiday.

Keep your own memories

Take photographs that mean something to you, whether they show a family meal, a view or a quiet afternoon. Ask before sharing photographs of other guests, and keep personal details out of a public post.
