The Kahala, Oahu
The recent purchasers of the Kahala Mandarin Oriental have decided to take the hotel independent. In a major change at one of Oahu’s top hotels, the hotel’s owner, Trinity Investments affiliate Kahala Hotel Investors LLC, said the property will be renamed simply The Kahala. The hotel’s management contract will be turned over to Landmark Hotels Inc., whose president, Charles Sweeney, is also chairman of Trinity.
