We are so grateful for the opportunity to share our experiences with you. We have lived in Hawaii 24 years but this is home. The peace and tranquility of nature in the river bottom’s is so special. Thank you for choosing us.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in the river bottom’s, just a mile down the road. To share this experience with our kids was why we chose it. Our neighborhood is very special as we all watch out for each other. The views and the wildlife with so much space we enjoy. Saint Mary’s College Bell's we love hearing daily, as this reminds us we are so loved.

What makes this property unique

We wanted a home with personal space as well as entertainment. This remodel has it all covered.
