Pua Oriana: A Polynesian Tropical Retreat

E komo mai — welcome to our hale. Welcome to the Pua Oriana – a mix of Hawaiian and Samoan language, ‘pua’ meaning flower,
and ‘oriana’ means the flower that adorns a woman’s head. Enjoy the space and the grounds
with 880 acres of pristine gardens, walking paths, golf courses and beaches in this stunning
and relaxing renovated condo, furnished with furniture we would want to stay in.

This is a hale – or home – for some in our ‘ohana. The owners are a Polynesian (our father is
Samoan and Hawaiian) family with our roots here in Oahu's fabled north shore, and our
childhood home not far from here. We have outfitted the space with authentic Pasifika art
pieces – including Hawaiian, Samoan, Fijian and Micronesian. We have made every effort to
ensure your stay is a memorable and luxurious experience, and commit to giving you an
authentic Oahu recommendations!

With pristine beaches, two championship golf courses, two swimming pools, tennis, horseback
riding, snorkeling, surfing, a 5-star resort hotel and 12 miles of hiking, biking and jogging trails
there are endless activities for you to enjoy during your stay here at the Turtle Bay Resort. World
class visitor attractions and championship surfing competitions are a short 5 to 10-minute drive
away.

Or perhaps you want to simply relax in your newly renovated condo appointed with exclusive
designer furniture, cool porcelain tiles, Hawaiian koa pieces and original art works from
Polynesia and Micronesia.

Need to work during your stay? We have outfitted the space with an optional fold-out, stand up
desk to do your work on the patio, overlooking the plumeria trees, torch ginger, various native /
endemic plants and wide-open field with tropical greenery. The space is quiet with no foot traffic.

The wifi internet is the fastest available from Spectrum, allowing for up to 6 devices streaming
and/or videoconferencing from each end of the unit.

A good night’s rest after a full day is important: You will enjoy a latex California King with cooling
pillows. We have 700 thread count cotton sheets that were sustainably and responsibly
sourced. For two friends traveling together, the couch in the living room has a pull out memory
foam full sized bed.

Please note: Due to a building piping alteration, as of September 2023 we had to renovate the unit and have updated the tiles, paint, bathroom and patio slightly from the original unit as photographed and evidenced in the professional photos in our photo gallery and taken in June 2021. Photos taken with iPhone are interspersed in the photo gallery in which you’ll note a lighter tiling and a gray-white hue to the paint. We are awaiting an update on another photographer photo session soon.

We hope this guide is helpful to you as you explore this island that we call home. Please do call
if you need anything – we are here to help you have a good time. TMK 570010270072
