Lockers & Storage
We offer self-service automated lockers that can be rented at a cost of $5 for all day use. The locker area is located next to our “Hollywood Wall of Fame” and our “History Hall” mini-museum.
-
Babysitting
We don’t currently offer babysitting services, but some of our tours are “infant-friendly”, including Secret Island Beach Activities, Ocean Voyage Adventure Tour, the Aloha ‘Aina Tour, and the Hollywood Movie Sites Tour.
-
Drones
Use of drones (in, over, or around Kualoa Ranch), whether for photographic purposes or otherwise, is strictly prohibited (unless the user has been granted written, contractual permission for that specific instance from Kualoa Ranch). Violations may subject the guest to immediate ejection, confiscation of the drone, and referral of the matter to authorities. Drones are a serious safety hazard to tour operations, guests, staff, and wild life. Use of drones in or over Kualoa Ranch also constitutes an illegal trespass, an invasion of Kualoa Ranch’s privacy, and a tortious interference to our operations.
-
Service Animals
Guests are not allowed to bring animals of any kind to Kualoa Ranch, except for legally-defined service dogs or as may otherwise be required by law to assist those with disabilities (“disabilities” being defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act or other applicable laws). If you claim to have a legally-qualifying “service dog” you will be required to verify its legitimacy, pursuant to applicable legal requirements which are then in effect. A “service animal” is defined by law, and not by a person’s personal desires.
Even if a “service animal” is verified, and allowed to enter Kualoa Ranch, please be aware that you are still responsible for controlling it at all times. Please understand that we may require removal of your service animal from park property if it poses a threat to persons or property, including without limitation, if it is unruly, threatening, aggressive (barking, snarling, biting, etc.) and/or if you are unable to control your animal at all times.

-
Weather
The safety of our guests is our number one priority and weather conditions are always taken into consideration. Generally, unless there are high winds or lightning, our tours go out rain or shine. Kualoa Ranch reserves the right to cancel a tour or reservation if conditions are deemed unsafe. If we do so, we will refund your money for the portion that may have been cancelled.
