199292 min6.3 / 10

A lighthearted sitcom spin-off that trades the high school hallways for a Hawaiian beach setting, prioritizing ensemble fun and feel-good summer adventure over depth or stakes.

Kelly's grandpa invites the whole gang to his little hotel "The Hideaway" in Hawaii for summer vacation. They expect a marvelous time at the beach - without Belding. Upon arriving, they quickly learn that not only is Belding there, but they also have to help Kelly's grandpa from losing his hotel. Meanwhile Zack meets (again) the love of his life, Jessie and Slater bet with Lisa that they won't fight, and Screech gets kidnapped by the Pupuku clan.
