  • (e) Disputes (Hawaii). The Property is located in Hawaii, and Disputes (Hawaii)Section will control over Section 10(g) Disputes.
    • (1) Mediation (Hawaii).

    • (2) Arbitration (Hawaii).
      (A) Any Dispute which the Parties cannot resolve through mediation with DPR will be submitted to binding arbitration administered by DPR, under the then-current Arbitration Rules, Procedures and Protocols of DPR(“DPR Rules”), including the Deadline-Driven Arbitration Procedures contained in the DPR Rules, to the extent they are consistent with this Arbitration (Hawaii)Section. Mediation will take place in Honolulu, Hawaii. References in this Agreement to the possibility of resolving a Dispute with an action or proceeding other than arbitration (for example, Section 11(h) Jurisdiction) are merely meant to express the Parties’ intent to be as inclusive as possible, are not intended to permit resolution of a Dispute other than by arbitration.

      (B) A Party may initiate arbitration by giving the other Party written notice of submission of a Dispute to arbitration (“Arbitration Demand”).  Upon receipt of an Arbitration Demand, the Parties will use their best efforts to agree upon and retain a single arbitrator from DPR’s panel of neutral arbitrators. If the Parties cannot agree upon and retain a single arbitrator within five days after an Arbitration Demand is received, then the President of DPR will select the arbitrator.

      (C) Notwithstanding anything in the DPR Rules to the contrary, the arbitration will be conducted on an expedited basis so that the hearing will take place in Waimea, Hawaii 96743 within 60 days of the receipt of the Arbitration Demand, the hearing will not exceed 10 days, and the arbitrator will issue an award within 30 days of the hearing.  The award may include declaratory relief, injunctive relief, or specific performance except as otherwise prohibited by this Agreement and will be binding and non-appealable.  Judgment may be entered upon any award made in arbitration by the Circuit Court of the First Circuit of the State of Hawaii as provided by statute, which judgment will not be subject to appeal.

12. COVID 19 Notice and Disclaimer to Guests

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. COVID-19 has changed a lot about the way We at HawaiiVacation.info do business and the ways in which We interact with guests.

While much uncertainty and apprehension around COVID-19 remains, We do know that COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. It may also spread by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it, then touching Your mouth, nose, or eyes. Some evidence suggests that COVID-19 can live on certain surfaces for several days.

At HawaiiVacation.info, We have implemented various preventive measures aimed to reduce the risk of the spread of COVID-19 among Our guests, homeowners, vendors, and employees. However, We do not guarantee or warrant against the risk of infection.

None of the information provided herein is intended as medical advice. This Notice and Disclaimer is intended as a warning to our guests of the risk of contracting COVID-19, a disclaimer of Our liability and the liability associated therewith, and an explanation of some of the things We’re doing to mitigate the risk of the spread of COVID-19, as well as some of the things We believe Our guests can do to help.

  • (a) Here’s what We’re doing:
    • (1) We have enhanced Our cleaning procedures, giving special attention to cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces such as tables, faucets, railings, light switches, and doorknobs.
    • (2) We have implemented a company-wide policy designed to limit physical interactions between employees and guests, owners, vendors, and visitors, as well as physical interactions among Our employees. To the fullest extent possible, Our employees are working remotely. Employees working in or around Our offices, working inside of Our homes, and physically interacting with guests and owners are directed to adhere to specific general hygiene and social distancing requirements.
    • (3) Our employees will wear masks while inside of Our homes and while interacting with guests outside of Our offices. Our employees are required to wear masks during all face-to face interactions.
    • (4) To further limit physical interactions, Our staff may work with guests via phone or video conference to troubleshoot any maintenance or service requests. Our staff will enter guest-occupied homes only if requested and absolutely necessary. Our employees may not enter an occupied home until all occupants have relocated to a separate, distant area within or outside of the home.
  • (b) Here’s what You can do:
