OUR MISSION
SOS Hui members believe it is the intent of Princeville's original Master Plan that ALL 27 links of the Makai Golf Course would remain Open Space.
The Princeville at Hanalei Community is located on the northern side of the beautiful and serene island of Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi.
Hui members monitor Starwood Capital Group's threatened development of zoned Open Space and report relevant information via this website and
e-mail distribution list.
DO YOU WANT TO SAVE PRINCEVILLE'S OPEN SPACE?
Do you want Starwood Capital Group, owners of 1Hotel and the Makai Golf Course, to develop new residences on Princeville's designated Open Space? Do you know there is documented proof that anthrax is buried on the golf course? Please help us understand what YOU want for the future of our community by filling out this short informational survey and by signing our petition to Starwood Capital Group and local authorities. As of this moment, (290) people have taken the survey and (137) have signed the petition. Please add your feedback.
For more information on what steps Starwood has already taken towards development of the golf course and the health dangers of unearthing potentially deadly anthrax spores, please review the 2026 Timeline
