What the Mana score means

Mana is the Polynesian idea of the life-force a place holds. Some hotels in the directory show a Mana score: an AI estimate of how a stay affects the local economy, culture and environment, based on public information about the property.

It is an estimate, not a certification, and the hotels haven't verified it. We only show it when the estimate's confidence is medium or high.

Where would you like to stay?

Describe it in a sentence: the island, the budget, the kind of place. We'll show the hotels that fit and say why.
