Our "Think-Tank" is ideally designed for Corporate Meetings, Sales Seminars, Workshops, Management Conferences, Colloquiums, and business groups up to 50 persons. We can provide your meeting with projectors (16mm or 35mm slide), screens, flip charts, microphones, or whatever you might need for a successful and constructive conference. ACCOMMODATIONS Ninety-five thatch-roofed hales, spaced for privacy, form a Polynesian village of huts styled after those found in the South Pacific. Interiors have every modern luxury of the finest resort hotels. Coffee makers and small refrigerators in every room. But no telephones, radios, or television. It's often said our greatest assets are the things we don't have. Phones are at the office if you really must contact the outside world! OUR SETTING Kona Village has some 12,000 acres separating it from the rest of the world. Centuries away in its remote setting at historic Kaupulehu, yet just 5 1/2 miles from the Keahole-Kona Airport on the Big Island of Hawaii. WHAT TO DO AFTER MEETINGS Sail, swim, paddle an outrigger, or take a glass-bottom boat excursion. Play tennis, or just laze away the rest of the day in a hammock. Take a guided tour to the resort's 15-acre petroglyph site, or take part in demonstrations of ancient arts and crafts-lauhala weaving, featherwork, lei making, or hula. All these activities at no extra charge! WHAT TO BRING BESIDES A SWIMSUIT Come casual and pack the same. There are no dress-up occasions at Kona Village, and aloha attire is always appropriate. Some evenings are cool, so bring a sweater or light jacket. The Island Copra & Trading Co. general store carries Hawaiian wear, swimwear, film, sundries, gifts, and reading material. DINNER & COCKTAILS Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the Hale Moana Dining Room. The Hale Ho'okipa offers an ideal setting for our Luau and Paniolo Steakfry, each a weekly, optional dining event. Enjoy cocktails at the Shipwreck Bar at poolside or in the Hale Samoa longhouse.

A funny thing happened on the way to Now... We found out we have the world's most beautiful Think-Tank at Kona Village. Like so many important discoveries it was an accident. A lot of businessmen brought their families to our remote and luxurious resort for sun-fun and vacation. Then they realized that a man can do some creative self communing, far from city distractions, with his toes in warm sand. Soon, they were returning with other management-types. And we noticed casual meetings in our palm groves- or men strolling our lonely beaches in serious discussion. So one day we asked one of these barefoot businessmen about it and he said: "It's good thinking country... All this space, quiet and beauty... It gives you a fresh viewpoint." Maybe you and your fellow decision-makers need an escape into realities of sun, sky and sea- a different kind of meeting place for executive discussions, sales seminars, or that long-postponed exchange of ideas. The payoff could be immense- in constructive thinking and building morale. The cost is not only gentle but a wise investment. (And you can combine fruitful executive-sessions with memorable family vacations.) For that next important meeting, consider ho'oponopono with your colleagues at Kona Village! As the man said. . . It's Good Thinking Country. Meetings can be comfortably casual at the Hale Hu'okipa, where the sky is your ceiling. Infinite room for ideas to expand. The precious gift of privacy in the luxury of your plush/primitive thatched "hale." No jangling phones, city noises, traffic, or crowds. Tropical lagoons and a glistening sea. A shoeless, tieless, uncluttered atmosphere for clearest thinking. Endless space to stroll . . . to recapture the spirit of a simpler life. Sail, snorkel, or paddle an outrigger canoe in the crystal-clear waters of Kahuwai Bay.
