: The "HR Hawaii" hotel is actually the Four Seasons Resort Ko Olina .
The film's success largely rested on Lauren Lapkus, whose performance David Spade compared to a "Jim Carrey type" energy.
True to the Happy Madison playbook, the film is packed with cameos and family connections:

: Lapkus admitted she is nothing like her over-the-top character and required strict "me-time" at the end of every filming day just to mentally wind down .
