Aloha Heart follows Manu (Kanoa Goo), a Hawaiian conservationist who knows his family’s hotel needs to make big operational changes.

Sara Hamilton (Taylor Cole) is the maid of honor in her friend’s wedding, which is being held at Manu’s hotel. She desperately wants to get her foot in the door of environmental protection.
