Welcome to The Cliffs

Growing Pains

When we purchased “The Cliffs at Hakalau”, the garden and homes were in disrepair and had been neglected for some time. Unfortunately, the previous owner didn’t properly maintain the property. We were surprised to find so many things that needed to be repaired!  Many, many hours have since been spent addressing deferred maintenance items to bring the home back to its rightful glory.  It has been a long and exhausting process, but truly a labor of love.  Each time we finish a project, the home seems to whisper “Thank You” to us.

Invasive & overgrown Monstera plants must go

Overgrown Monstera - Before Monstera on the Big Island is like a weed. It just takes over. We had two beautiful native trees on the property that needed saving. The Monstera was choking out the trees and they were slowly dying. Here are the before and after pictures of one.
