With the opening of Hanalei Bay Resort’s Ukulele Bar what better activity to pair with Kauai’s only swim-up bar but ukulele lessons to continue those perfect island vibes?

It’s hard to frown when ukulele music is going down!

You can now sign up for a 1-hour ukulele lesson at the concierge for a small fee of $20 per person (includes ukulele rental). Lessons happen every Friday from 3:00-4:00pm in the upper swimming pool area. Bring the whole family for a fun-filled lesson from trained musician and vocalist, Michael Keale!

Michael is an accomplished musician with multiple Na Hoku Hanahano award nominations and continues to capture the hearts of audiences all over the country. Following in his late Uncle Moe Keal and first cousin, Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo’ole, Michael loves sharing aloha through music.

During your lesson you will learn the basic ‘up down’ technique, finger positions of three ukulele chords, and strum in unison as a class. You’ll impress family and friends with strumming the chords to the Hawaiian classic, “Pearly Shells.”

Be sure to sign up early! These lessons fill up fast.
