KoOlina is part of an original royal land division that extended from the waters off Pearl Harbor to the summit of the Waianae Mountains. The area was a sacred place used for rest and relaxation by Hawaiian chiefs, like Kakuhihewa, and Hawaiian royalty. Kamehameha the Great and his wife Ka’ahumanu were frequent visitors, bathing in the protected water of its reef-sheltered coves, fishing, and participating in religious ceremonies. Hawaii's last monarch, Lili’uokalani, also came to KoOlina for time away. The industrialist James Campbell helped develop much of the Ewa Plain, where KoOlina is situated. In the late 1800s, after purchasing 41,000 acre of arid, barren land, he had water wells drilled for irrigation and built a plantation for sugar-cane production. In the 1930s, his daughter Alice Kamokila Campbell moved to what was then a secluded shore in the area. During World War II, Ms. Campbell allowed her property at KoOlina, which she called Lanikuhonua (“where heaven meets earth" in Hawaiian), to serve as a recreational retreat for army and navy servicemen. In the mid 1980s, Hawaii developer Herbert Horita and his Japanese investment partner, Takeshi Sekiguchi, purchased the KoOlina Resort property and entitled, designed and built the four man-made lagoons, marina basin, golf course and all infrastructure. After the Japanese real-estate bubble burst in the early 1990s, development at the resort stopped after the completion of the golf course, a resort condominium and just one hotel, which was the Ihilani Resort & Spa and is now the Four Seasons Resort Oahu at KoOlina. In 1998 developer Jeffrey Stone, President of The Resort Group, and partners bought the property from Herbert Horita's lender, The Industrial Bank of Japan, and began its revival. To date they have added two vacation resorts, Marriott's KoOlina Beach Club and Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa; villa homes, and multiple resort condominiums, including the oceanfront KoOlina Beach Villas Resort, a luxury condominium with a rental program overseen by Resort Management Company. Approximately 150 additional long- and short-term rentals are managed by owners directly or through authorized agents. In 2013, Kona Private Capital Group, an investment firm funded by Tamra-Tacoma Capital Partners, announced $150 million of residential acquisition and development in the KoOlina and Kapolei neighborhoods. Stone and partners also have added a full-service marina; two commercial centers with retail and dining; four wedding chapels; an activity center, and a beach and sports club for residents. Currently, approximately 50 percent of the 642-acre resort is developed. Today KoOlina Resort is a wonderful location to plan out a photo session.
