Why Become a Member
Communication: A3H hosts a private member-secured portal for members to discuss industry challenges and provides solutions where possible. For example, we coordinated a collective legal action against Activity Desks for failing to pay for past activity. In the forums, information is shared among members, and together we rise to a higher level of operation.
Protection: A3H Lobbies for consumer protection as it relates to the sale of activities & attractions while also representing the views and interests of activities & attractions to County, State, and Federal government entities. Members can access Industry Standard contracts, waivers, best practices, and more.
Promoting: Via an extensive array of collective member websites, products, and services. Our goal is to increase your pre-arrival direct bookings.
Profitability: Negotiate or establish reduced costs through economies of scale, e.g., Answering Services, Credit Card Processing, Printing, and the web-based reservation system PonoRez (made for Suppliers by Suppliers, now owned by Kula Software Systems, Inc.

Testimonies
Toni Marie Davis
Executive Director
“Serving A3H has shown me again and again what can happen when independent businesses choose to work together. To me, that is the heart of a trade association: communication, collective representation, shared resources, and the understanding that we can accomplish things together that would be difficult for any one company to accomplish alone. Our members live and work in these islands. Their employees, families, customers, and businesses are part of our communities. My role on the Board and as Executive Director is to help connect those voices and turn shared needs and ideas into action that benefits both our industry and Hawaiʻi.”
