Aloha, I’m Mike – Your Private Guide to an Unforgettable Kauai Vacation,
Kokua “Gracious Service”
For Mike, designing adventures for present day vacationers comes easy. Long ago kid days, living within the islands stunning beauty and exploring all the valleys, trails and beaches gives clarity in honoring my upbringing and my cultural hawaiian heritage. No surprise, every day learning from the dirt and salt brings knowledge, the aina insists on deep appreciation and endless gratitude in how rich and vibrant and special this island is.
My lifetime participation in all styles of upscale island hospitality has fueled me to the obvious today. From the caves of Na Pali, hidden beaches, deep trails into the isle core, ziplines and atv tours, taking amazing guests with me is second nature and beyond my pleasure. Kahiau, “selfless generosity” is deep in my marrow, Kokua “being of service” was instilled by endless calm and exceptional warm manners from kupuna. As a part Hawaiian born and raised native, island themes and traditions seasoned my character and upbringing on Kauai and Oahu. Values were taught and morals instilled by family example. Compassion and giving of oneself are qualities that resonate throughout his life. My wisdom comes from having tried all of the islands outdoor venues, regular visits to the many restaurants and knowing where the most beautiful scenery can be found. Mike was a dedicated Maui county fire fighter/EMT handling extreme situations on Molokai, Lanai and Maui. As an Oahu county life guard, sharing his love of the sea meant remaining vigilant of hazards.
Mike worked for many years as general manager and property caretaker for Kauai’s largest and most exclusive north shore estate, rented by high profile Hollywood celebrities and VIP families. Merging enthusiasm and his local wisdom with thorough competence, he has fostered trusted relationships with many Hollywood families, world dignitaries and business leaders. His adept handling of their special requests and gracious discretion has kept his portfolio full of returning friends and guests.
During high school on Oahu working at“ Outrigger Hotels” as a concierge, with“Blue Hawaiian” helicopter as a concierge, Kauai’s “Na Pali Adventures” private boat tours first mate, “Princeville Ranch Adventures” guide and escort, private escort/guide/concierge for Sony Studios, locations scout/production assistance for Kauai made movies, limousine driver, and many more companies. His extensive experiences in all facets of upscale hospitality allows him to flourish within his community in offering authentic vacation moments for all. Mahalo Nui, Mike

Hanakapiai Falls, Kauai HI
“Do yourself a huge favor and call Mike before your trip to Kauai. He is a wealth of knowledge and has all the connections on the island. We reached out to Mike via email to ask about stocking our fridge for our arrival and ended up not only making a great friend, but delivering a couple SUPs to our house, finding a local (and amazing) musician to come and play beachside, securing a local babysitter, and he sharing tips and tricks and ideas for us to keep us busy. We ate at his new spot the Hanalei Bread Company a few times and we were just so impressed with Mike and his wife and their business and the way they make their customers their friends. They are super responsive, easy to communicate with, organized, thoughtful and worth your trust. He turned our trip into a one of a kind vacation and we are very grateful!”
