WIMCO EXPANDS ALOHA FROM MAUI TO OAHU:
ANNOUNCES NEW, LUXURIOUS OAHU COLLECTION
NEWPORT, RI, March 11, 2010 – Wimco Villas, the award-winning leader in luxury villa rentals, announces an extensive selection of villas on Oahu. This is the second Hawaiian island to be singled out by Wimco after its successful launch on Maui in late 2008.
“We’re engaging in a highly selective expansion into Hawaii and into Mexico to offer our high quality and high service villa vacation experience to those who prefer the convenience of West Coast alternatives to the Caribbean,” said Stiles Bennet, vice president of marketing.
Bennet added that April villa reservations can be timed to the annual Kokua Festival 2010 April 23 and 24 that brings world-class performers to the stage in a charity benefit. Jack Johnson, Ziggy Marley, Taj Mahal, Jake Shimabukuro, and Hawaii’s own Anuhea are scheduled performers. The popular event benefits the Kokua Hawaii Foundation and promotes eco-friendly living. All proceeds from the festival go to the Kokua Hawaii Foundation, a non-profit organization founded by Jack and Kim Johnson in 2003 to support environmental education programs in the schools and communities of Hawaii.
Wimco Villas new collection can accommodate many types of vacations, from honeymoons and weddings to family reunions and corporate retreats.
Oahu has been named “Best Island in the World” 12 of the last 13 years in the Condé Nast Traveler Reader’s Choice Poll.
The expanding collection currently features exceptional properties ranging from two to eight bedrooms. The villas are located in Kailua, Kahala, Diamond Head, Laie and North Shore.
