Aloha from the Hyatt Regency Kauai

Welcome to the PGA Grand Slam of Golf at Poipu Bay Golf Course and the newly renovated Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort and Spa. The 2003 tournament promises to be one of the most exciting ever as we greet four talented players who are new to the PGA Grand Slam of Golf but by no means new to victory. This foursome will undoubtedly draw the attention of golf enthusiasts worldwide who are eager to cheer on a fresh group of professionals.

This year, we also offer a new look at the Hyatt. Over the past year, we have been working on an extensive renovation of our rooms and suites, and the replacement of our signature roof. We are pleased to announce the completion of this incredibly challenging but successful undertaking and the result is that you, our valued guests, are among the first to occupy the newly renovated rooms at the Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort and Spa.We also completed a million dollar-plus refurbishment at the ANARA Spa which includes a new front desk crafted of prized Acacia Koa.

If you have stayed with us before, I promise you this visit will be even more thrilling than the last. Our Hyatt Regency Kauai staff is your extended Ôohana (family) and our goal is your complete satisfaction. Each staff member has a personal objective to fulfill your dreams with true aloha spirit, and secure your confidence in our collective ability to offer you the highest level of quality service. Thank you for choosing the Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort and Spa as your special home away from home.

With warm aloha,

Jerry C. Gibson, General Manager
