Planning a Meeting in Hawaii

PLANNING A MEETING IN HAWAII?

Aloha and welcome to Island Meetings.  This site assists with all aspects of planning a meeting in Hawaii from hotel site selection, to attendee activities to speakers for your meetings.  We can help meeting planners, conference organizers and other group buyers secure rates and dates at Hawaii's leading properties.  We also offer assistance with ground transportation, leisure activities, premium gift items, speakers and other components of already confirmed programs.

Our primary goal is to help you create a meeting or incentive that your attendees will never forget and to save you time and money throughout the process.  This site is operated by 21st Century Group, Inc. a Hawaii based company.  Although we operate all over the world, this site is dedicated to the destination we know best - our home state of Hawaii. With offices throughout the U.S. we are available at your convenience.
