I believe the answer is:

aloha

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'greetings from honalo hawaii' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'from honalo hawaii' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ALOHA' can be found hidden inside 'honalo hawaii'.

Can you help me to learn more?
