Clean Green Stay Safe Program

While the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world and how business is conducted, we remain positive and look forward to welcoming all of our guests with a commitment to ensure their health, safety and comfort.

We have further enhanced our cleaning guidelines which was carefully put together and implemented following the recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Hawaii Lodging and Tourism Association (HLTA). These procedures and guidelines may change and evolve over time to reflect new government guidance and expectations.

HOW WE CLEAN YOUR LUXURY ROOM

Our housekeeping protocol begins with our team removing all used items from the room such as bedding, towels, room amenities, and rubbish.  Next, our team performs a full clean of the room, bathroom, and lanai including vacuuming, sanitizing, then disinfecting all high touched surfaces, floors, major bathroom surfaces, switches and electronic controls, handles and knobs.  We use natural cleaning products and a commercial grade 345 degree disinfecting steamer where possible.

After the room is thoroughly cleaned, we replace all towels, make up the bed with fresh linens, and restock the room's amenities.  Finally, your room’s floors are mopped with a 345 degree sanitizing/disinfecting commercial grade steamer and your room is sealed for your arrival.
