Short-term rental care · Hawaiʻi Island

We fix what your cleaning crew can't.

Turnovers, grounds and interior maintenance, and home watch for vacation rentals and second homes. One local team for everything between the housekeeper and the contractor.

Serving Kailua-Kona & South Kohala

Where we fit

Your cleaners handle the inside. Contractors handle the big jobs. The rest falls through the cracks.

Streaky windows, a dead bulb, a leaking irrigation line, an empty propane tank, a TV still signed in to the last guest's Netflix. Small things a guest notices and a cleaning crew isn't set up to handle. That's our work.

Services

Four services and an add-on, one point of contact.

Between guests

Exterior Turnover

About an hour between guests, so the property looks right at check-in.

  • Leaves raked, green waste hauled
  • Garden beds spot-cleaned
  • Trash containers cleaned
  • Propane tank checked and swapped
  • Irrigation checked for leaks
  • Exterior lighting checked
  • Pool spot-cleaned and temperature reset to standard
  • TV and streaming apps signed out from the last guest

Mostly outside, with a quick inside reset for guest details.

Scheduled

Grounds Maintenance

Two 4-hour visits a month, plus optional 2-hour visits on the weeks between.

  • Mowing and shrub pruning
  • Snail and slug control with integrated pest management
  • Fertilizing and bed care for airflow
  • Standing water checks against mosquitoes
  • Pressure washing and gecko cleanup
  • Larger garden projects

This is where pruning and bigger projects happen, planned ahead.

Inside the house

Interior Maintenance

A full systems review, with issues fixed on the spot.

  • Every system walked and checked
  • Window cleaning
  • Bulbs replaced, fixtures tightened
  • Paint touch-ups on dings and scuffs
  • Small repairs before they become guest complaints

The fixes your cleaning crew spots but can't make.

While you're away

Home Watch

Scheduled check-ins for absentee and second-home owners while the house sits empty.

  • Walk-through inside and out
  • Leak, pest and moisture checks
  • Systems run and checked
  • Grounds and pool kept presentable
  • Checks after storms and power outages

Someone local watching the house, so small problems don't wait for your next trip.

Add-on

Pre-arrival grocery stocking

Groceries shopped and put away before check-in, so guests walk into a stocked kitchen.

Ask about it

We maintain and repair what's already there. We don't take on renovations or major installations.

Our approach

Prevention, on a rotation.

Most guest complaints start small: a slow leak, a burned-out porch light, slugs on the lanai. Instead of waiting for things to break, we check your property's systems on a planned rotation, so everything gets looked at regularly.

We take on eight properties at most. Each one gets its own plan, built around its size, landscape, pool and calendar, and the same person on every visit.

Example rotation

  1. Cycle 1Water
    Irrigation lines, standing water, pool
  2. Cycle 2Lighting & electrical
    Exterior lights, interior bulbs, fixtures
  3. Cycle 3Landscape & pests
    Pruning, fertilizing, snail and slug control
  4. Cycle 4Surfaces
    Paint touch-ups, pressure washing, windows

For owners and managers

What changes for you.

Fewer guest complaints

Problems get found on a scheduled visit, not in a review.

Fewer emergency calls

Small fixes now cost less than urgent repairs during a booking.

One local contact

Exterior, grounds and interior upkeep handled by the same team.
