Four Seasons Resort Hualalai, the only resort on the Island of Hawaii to earn both the AAA Five Diamond and Forbes Five-Star distinctions alongside two Michelin keys, has unveiled an exciting lineup of summer programming for the 2025 season. From June through August, the beloved Hawaiian retreat invites new and returning guests to experience a dynamic season of curated offerings, including visits from top fitness trainers, a festive Fourth of July celebration, immersive stargazing experiences, lively luaus and an array of limited-time culinary specials.

“Summer is an exciting and meaningful time at our resort,” says Charlie Parker, Regional Vice President and General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Hualalai. “Our team is dedicated to crafting personalized experiences that embody the spirit of aloha - whether welcoming families returning for their annual tradition or couples discovering the island for the first time. This season’s programming invites guests of all ages to connect with the natural beauty, culture and community of Hawaii, all while enjoying the comfort and exclusivity of our world-class accommodations.”

The Resort has curated a variety of events and celebrations for the 2025 summer season, offering something for every age and interest. For kids, several exciting activations and experiences are planned, including the highly anticipated return of Camp Manitou, one of the nation’s foremost summer camps designed for children ages 9 to 17. Marking its ninth year, daily programming emphasizes group bonding through cultural, recreational and exploratory activities both at the Resort and across the island. Highlights include visits to hidden beaches, lava tube and waterfall explorations, snorkelling at Kealakekua Bay and stargazing atop Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano and the highest point in all of Hawaii. Additionally, families can participate in daily activities at the Kaupulehu Cultural Center, where they’ll learn to make leis, take hula lessons and play the ukulele through immersive, hands-on experiences. The Resort will also host movies under the stars, poolside art classes, themed dinner nights and more. On Saturday, July 26, 2025, Hualalai will host Real Madrid, Spain’s beloved professional soccer club, for a youth soccer clinic for keiki ages 5-17.
