My wife and I needed help remodeling a condo in Hilo while we live off-island. This was an incredibly daunting task for us. Once Bernie agreed to work with us and we began to experience her attention to detail, reliable communication, and kindness, we quickly realized that we had hit the jackpot to have found her. She textured walls, painted, deep cleaned, installed flooring and trim, completely renovated our bathroom, crafted a beautiful tongue & groove closet from scratch, and gave a facelift to our kitchen cabinets, to name just a sample of what she did for us. She also provided intangibles, like her guidance and inexhaustible problem solving skills that have proven invaluable. We feel so fortunate to have found Bernie! She absolutely transformed our condo! It's difficult to express how extraordinary she is!

Jessica is very pleasant and professional. The place was in really bad shape. I mean, I'm not gonna say hoarders (because I love my grandparents) but, um, you know.... Thank you Punawai Cleaning.

I was not present for many of the cleanings and never once questioned Melissa's integrity or character- she is a wonderful person with an amazing work ethic! I opted for a "general cleaning" most of the time, but if an area of my place ever needed a little extra love, Melissa was happy to accommodate. Sometimes piles (and I mean PILES) of clothes needed to get sorted and put away, or the kitchen needed a good deep cleaning and organization. Melissa was always up for the task! Melissa's cleaning services greatly improved the quality of my day-to-day life so much so that I recommended her to my family and other friends, who also had a similar experience.

2 Star Honest Review of "Five Star Cleaners" and Owner Jade…read more(Lengthy but worth the read if you're considering this company) This is my honest experience with Five Star Cleaners, run by Jade, and why I unfortunately cannot recommend this company. I was in search of a move-out cleaning for my ohana rental and needed a reliable, reputable company to take on the job. I found Five Star Cleaners, and Jade sent an amazing cleaner named Chelsea, who did a fantastic job on a small test area. That experience gave me confidence in their quality of work. As a homeowner, I'm careful when hiring service providers -- especially when I'm not going to be physically present -- so I planned this cleaning a full month in advance. We scheduled a team of 4 cleaners, at $120/hr, for roughly 3-5 hours. Everything was confirmed: my proxy (a trusted friend) would be there in my place as I would be off-island, and multiple cleanings were lined up. A week before the job, I checked in with Jade to confirm everything and asked for a detailed list of what the cleaning would include (e.g. baseboards, windows inside and out, cabinets, full deep clean, etc.). I also mentioned I'd like the invoice to clearly reflect the services for documentation purposes -- in case anything came up with my tenant's security deposit and I needed it for small claims. That's when Jade suddenly became uncomfortable and said this was "concerning." I clarified that I wasn't threatening legal action or involving her in a dispute -- I simply needed a clear invoice, as any homeowner would, to show a judge the unit had been professionally deep-cleaned (as required by my lease). I explained this is standard procedure, and no liability or risk would fall on her or her team. Just a paper trail. However, Jade insisted she didn't want to be "caught in any legal crossfire" and pulled out of the job entirely, just one week before the scheduled date, leaving me scrambling just days before I was scheduled to leave the island. She refused to speak on the phone to clarify things or resolve the misunderstanding. All communication abruptly stopped. To make matters worse, Jade then blocked me on Facebook and all other communication channels, presumably to avoid accountability and prevent a negative review -- rather than taking ownership or having a respectful conversation as an informed and professional business owner should. That behavior alone speaks volumes. This last-minute cancellation was a major inconvenience and unnecessary stress, especially after a month of coordination. I had trusted this company to follow through -- and instead, they dropped out without any real attempt to problem-solve. That is not professional in my opinion. To be clear, I don't wish Jade or her business any harm -- but I do not consider this company reputable based on this experience. In Hawaiʻi, where it's already difficult to find trustworthy cleaning services, this situation only made things harder. If you're a homeowner or property manager needing reliable, professional, and communicative service -- I would encourage you to look elsewhere. This wasn't it.

Morgan is the owner of the business, and all my communication with her over the last 9 months has been very easy and pleasant. Morgan is one of the most reliable and professional business owners I have done business with on island, and if you have run a vacation rental on island you can appreciate what this really means! (It is difficult to find professionals on island.) I cannot say enough about her cleaning services. I typically give her a list by room to work off of, and she and her sister do an impeccable job each time they come out. They are also efficient and quick, meaning they are experienced cleaners, and have obviously been doing this a long time. They are aware of what, "clean" looks and smells like, as well as an awareness of the details! In addition, Morgan and her sister clean our personal property, and we are always more than happy with the beautiful clean place we return to after they have paid us a visit. Last time, they even did our windows! All, I can say is, "Mahalo nui loa Morgan!" You have made our lives less stressful in both our business and professional lives. I highly recommend Morgan, "Out of the Blue Cleaning Services" for your vacation rental or private residence. In essence all of your house cleaning needs! You will not be disappointed.

The cleaning solutions are non-toxic, pet friendly and has a pleasant smell. I will definitely be using Coastal Cleaners again. You should too.
