Last Updated: January 13, 2023

By using the HawaiianIslands.com website (the “Site”) or any HawaiianIslands.com applications or application plug-ins (“Applications”), you agree to follow and be bound by these terms of use (the “Terms of Use”) as well as our Privacy Policy, and agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including United States export and re-export control laws and regulations. In these Terms of Use, the words “you” and “your” refer to each customer, Site visitor, or Application user, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to HawaiianIslands.com and “Services” refers to all services provided by us.

Quick Summary of Terms and Conditions

This is in no way intended to be a substitution for reading the entire Agreement, however as a courtesy to you, this summary is provided as a means of quickly communicating the key points.

  1. We help travelers find and reserve vacation accommodations. This may be in the form of a home, cabin, condo, hotel, motel, or any other dwelling. We also help suppliers advertise and book their accommodations and attractions through our Site. However, we are not privy, or Party to, any rental transaction that occurs through this site. We make no claims to proactively filter or guarantee the claims made by any supplier on this Site.
  2. You are bound by each suppliers booking, refund and cancellation policies. We are a venue – you book at your own risk with each supplier and we are in no way responsible for damages financially, punitive, or otherwise.
  3. We collect reviews on overnight accommodations as well as places of business. If you submit a review, photo, or other media/content we will protect your privacy and we will maintain the right to publish your review and content.
  4. We protect our brand, content, website and users. If you are attempting to do something bad or legally questionable to us or our users, it is prohibited and we limit our liability from and disclaim the bad things people do.

1.    Website is a Venue and Not Party to Any Rental Agreement

We urge all users to be responsible about their use of this Site and any transaction entered into as a result of either listing a property or renting a property.  We do not own or manage, nor can we contract for, any vacation rental property or attraction listed on this Site unless explicitly noted on the properties individual listing. The Site provides an on-line marketplace to allow homeowners and property managers who advertise on the Site (each, a “member”) to offer for rent in a variety of pricing formats, a specific vacation or short term rental property to potential renters or renters (each, a “traveler” and, collectively with a member, the “users”). “Members” may also include property owners or managers who originally advertised their properties on another website and their listings have been redistributed on the Site. We also may offer online booking or other tools or services to allow users to communicate with each other and enter into rental agreements or other transactions. We are not a party to any rental or other agreement between users. This is true even if the Site allows you to book a rental or provides other ancillary products or services, as the Site may facilitate booking a rental or other tools, services or products, but we are not a party to any rental or other agreement between users. As a result, any part of an actual or potential transaction between a traveler and a member, including the quality, condition, safety or legality of the properties advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings (including the content thereof or any review relating to any traveler or property), the ability of members to rent a vacation property or the ability of travelers to contract for properties are solely the responsibility of each user. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to enter into one or more separate agreements, waivers or terms and conditions before making a booking or purchasing a product or service and HawaiianIslands.com or one of its affiliates may place additional restrictions on your booking, product or service. Users agree that they are responsible for, and agree to abide by, all laws, rules and regulations applicable to their use of the Site, their use of any tool, service or product offered on the Site and any transaction they enter into on the Site or in connection with their use of the Site. Members further agree that they are responsible for and agree to abide by all laws, rules, ordinances, or regulations applicable to the listing of their rental property and the conduct of their rental business, including but not limited to any and all laws, rules, ordinances, regulations or other requirements relating to taxes, credit cards, data and privacy, permits or license requirements, zoning ordinances, safety compliance and compliance with all anti-discrimination and fair housing laws, as applicable. Members who accept credit card, banking or other payment information from travelers agree to properly handle and safeguard all such information in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements and best practices. Although most travel is completed without a serious incident, travel to some destinations may involve more risk than others.  We urge travelers to research the location they wish to visit and to review travel prohibitions, warnings, announcements and advisories issued by the United States Government before booking. While we do take certain measures with a goal to assist users to avoid potentially fraudulent or other illegal activity of which we become aware, we assume no liability or obligation to take any such measures or actions.  When we provide warnings or messages to users about any such activity, we do not warrant that such messages are accurate or that such messages will reach any or all users they should have reached in a timely manner or at all or that such messages or measures will prevent any harm or otherwise have any impact.

However, if you do give someone your online ID and online password, or if you fail to adequately safeguard such information, you are responsible for any and all transactions that the person performs while using your account with us or your email account, even those transactions that are fraudulent or that you did not intend or want performed. EACH USER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT: (1) NEITHER HawaiianIslands.com NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES WILL HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY USER FOR ANY UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTION MADE USING ANY USER’S ID OR PASSWORD; AND (2) THE UNAUTHORIZED USE OF YOUR ONLINE ID AND PASSWORD FOR YOUR HawaiianIslands.com ACCOUNT OR YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT COULD CAUSE YOU TO INCUR LIABILITY TO BOTH HawaiianIslands.com AND OTHER USERS.  Further, we may, without notice to you, suspend or cancel your listing at any time even without receiving notice from you if we suspect, in our sole discretion, that your account with us or your email account is being used in an unauthorized or fraudulent manner.
