More than 28 years ago, two friends had a vision to found a company for hairdressers—one that would provide tools of success for stylists, their salons and the entire beauty industry. Today, their vision has become a reality with John Paul Mitchell Systems growing into the largest privately held beauty company in the world. Our commitment to creating quality professional products has never wavered.

Hawaii's largest airline since its founding in 1929, Hawaiian Airlines today serves 20 domestic and international destinations in the Pacific region. It specializes in air transportation among the Hawaiian Islands and bringing visitors to Hawaii from points in the Western U.S. and the South Pacific.
Hawaiian has consistently been rated one of the "10 Best" U.S. airlines by Zagat Survey and readers of Condé Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure, and most recently was rated the seventh best domestic carrier in Condé Nast Traveler’s 2005 Readers’ Choice Awards—higher than any other carrier serving Hawaii.
Host Hotel of the XTERRA World Championship
There are few places left in Hawaii where you can stroll along quiet stretches of sand, see waves splash on ancient, storied shores and feel what the Hawaiians call the mana, or spirit of the land. One such place is Makena on Maui's southwestern coast, home of the Makena Beach & Golf Resort.
The Resort is secluded on 1800 acres, between a perfect crescent beach and the dramatic slopes of Mount Haleakala. A true Aloha experience, the Resort welcomes you with everything you desire for your Hawaiian visit. Sparkling Pacific views from every guest room. A pristine beach. Spectacular golf. Plus oceanside recreation and enticing dining options.
On the island of Maui, mornings of birdsong swell into days of pure exhilaration. From staggering natural beauty to one-of-a-kind adventures, Maui is a magical, tropical playground like no other.
Indeed, Maui is everything you have dreamed Hawaii to be, and almost certainly more than you imagined. Palm-shaded, powdery beaches and lush rainforests... Eclectic small towns and world-famous enclaves... Exclusive, world-class resorts and gem-like B&B's. It's all here.
But more importantly, Maui is home to a unique spirit. You will recognize it in the natural smiles that greet you daily, and you will feel its presence long after you depart.
