Waking Up with Aloha on Good Day LA

Marriott's Spirit of Aloha Tour team

Good morning Los Angeles! We were very excited to kick-off the final city of our 12-city tour bright and early with a 5 am call time at FOX 11's KTTV Good Day LA studio where Meteorologist Maria Quiban learned how to hula with former American Idol finalist Jasmine Trias and the Polynesian Cultural Center entertainers.

Good Day LA

Maria's hometown is Aiea on Oahu and she has been living and working in Los Angeles for the past 10 years. Her graceful hula hands and swaying hips made her look like a pro!

Maria and Jasmine

We just had to share with Maria some Hawaii omiyage, or treats!

Here's Dan, FOX 11's wonderful floor director.

Shave Ice also wanted to pose with the FOX sign!

Here are the Polynesian Cultural Center entertainers and Francis Ho Ching in 54-degree Los Angeles weather. Wow, what a big difference coming from the chilly 32 degrees in Salt Lake City!

Thank you... Mahalo, Maria, for a Good Day LA time with you!

Hawaii Islands Hotels Offer Lots to Do

If you are a golf enthusiast or just learning the game, the courses near our Hawaii Islands hotels will provide a challenge amid breathtaking island scenery. Want a little pampering? Try a body wrap, facial treatment, or a traditional Hawaiian lomi lomi massage in one of our many spas. Take a dip in an infinity pool, seemingly stretching forever into the blue Pacific waters, or sit and relax in the sun while sipping a cold cabana drink, maybe one with an umbrella. Enjoy all these activities and more at our Hawaii Islands hotels.
