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.
Mull/White win over Starwood Capital Group
August 6th, 2025 -- Judge Watanabe ruled in favor of the plaintiffs:
- Confirming the Makai Golf Course Dedication renews automatically every five years unless at least 75% of PHCA lot owners agree to terminate it,
- Starwood can’t build housing or disturb the land unless there’s proper testing, government oversight, AND approval from the court.
