Then he started saying he was doing free work for me and that I actually owed him more, and suddenly the peice is done and ready for shipping. But wait I owe him more for shipping now. At this point I've given up on getting the art or the refund but let me tell you. This man will not work with you and will steal from you and blame you for his mistakes. He called me stupid, told me to f*** off and demanded more money. DO NOT ORDER ONLINE!!!! YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE YOUR ORDER AND YOU WILL BE ASKED TO PAY MORE AND MORE

Miti is a Polynesian Master Carver, and not only did his story touch me but his work is incredibly beautiful! After following his social media page for a few weeks I reached out to inquire on a few pieces. Not only was he incredibly responsive given the 6 hour time difference, but he was kind enough to give his phone number so that I could call him and he could explain the significance behind each of the pieces I was interested in. He sent them out the next day and they arrived two days earlier than anticipated, and they are even more beautiful in person. Happy to support this family owned business, and will definitely purchase again. Mahalo Miti and your sons for all of your help. I am grateful for you!

If I could give Tradewinds Ranch 10 stars I would! What an amazing place to have a wedding! I…read morehighly recommend this venue. Nestled in the mountains and surrounded by a beautiful farm, this oasis is a perfect place that's away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu! We live in Hawaii but wanted a quiet and secluded venue and this was a perfect place!!! The owners of the ranch are so sweet and accommodating and their wedding coordinator was helpful and amazing! Thank you for your hospitality!!! We even had a mascot! Shotgun the horse greeted all the guests!

When I first came across Tradewinds Ranch, there were a few negative reviews from a few years ago circulating around Yelp as well as a few other wedding venue pages. I was RELIEVED to find that Tradewinds Ranch is under NEW MANAGEMENT & the lady mentioned in all of the reviews is no more! Rest assured, the new owners, Joyce & Dave are absolutely amazing! They understand the stressful process of planning a wedding (or any event, for that matter) & have been wonderful from the moment I met them! I'm a bit of an obsessive planner, & Joyce has been available every step of the way to answer any questions I have. This past weekend, we brought our families along to do a pre-wedding tour of the ranch & it was a HIT! I couldn't help it, I just had to show off! The property is gorgeous & PERFECT for anyone in search of a rustic, country themed venue. Complete with a barn, 3 bedroom "barn-dominium" with a full size bar, as well as a 3-bedroom ranch house, the possibilities are endless. This is definitely a one-of-a-kind venue! There is nothing like it here on Oahu (trust me, I spent months searching). As a woman & a huge country music fan, I have been dreaming about the perfect rustic wedding my entire life. With Tradewinds Ranch, my dreams are coming true! Joyce & Dave, I cannot thank you folks enough for making this a wonderful experience for us & our families! Please stay tuned for pics of our special day!

Definitely a unique experience where everyone was present and engaged, which was a breath of fresh air in this day and age. My middle school aged son even loved it and was so into his painting that he created a back story for it. Loved how everyone's art turned out differently and how everyone felt pride at the end. We would definitely do this again! Mahalo again Alicia!

I booked a kid private party (minimum 6 painters) for my child's birthday and would definitely recommend PFYS to have something fun for the guests to do! she offers bigger parties too! my kid is already thinking of the next painting to choose from Gwenaelle's gallery to paint for another future event! on the day of the event, PFYS was on time (actually early and I felt bad but she was really good about it). and the kids were so excited to paint! she provided everything and made it so stress-free for everyone - a big sheet to lay out for the kids (she will provide table if needed), all the different color paints, plates, brushes, easels, canvases, aprons, little towels to wipe the brushes, and her friendly personality and amazing art skills with guided step by step instructions so everyone could have a relaxing time painting right on the beach with an amazing view. it was such a wonderful experience and the kids were so happy with the outcome of their paintings and best of all got to sign it and take it home with them! check them out at https://paintforyoursoul.com ! you won't be disappointed.

My favorite part is the row of heads antlers where you can admire the differences among all the species that share similar functions or features across different biomes. What made the experience amazing was the two student staff who just started two months ago. I was talking to them, and it seems like the entire museum is run by maintained by the two young students. To bring attention to the museum and its studies, they conceived of an escape room experience to attract more visitors. What a creative idea!

Eli was also incredibly kind to our three teenage children, taking the time to explain everything in detail and making sure they felt included and cared for.
