I've been here twice as a chaperone for our sons' school orchestra camp in 2013 and 2016…read more Pros: Great food, all cabins are air-conditioned, clean, nice décor, well-maintained grounds, friendly staff, secure/gated with care taker living on property near the main gate, and adequate hot water for each cabin. Camp grounds included a large outdoor commercial-grade tent that the orchestra used for large-group practice. Their next door neighbor is the Kamehameha Schools' Preschool and another part of the Pu'u Kahea center is bordered by a canal: bottom line: safe and secure. There are also newer residential homes along the street where the entrance is located. There's an old "mansion" on the property where Disney filmed the movie Parent Trap in 1998. We used the mansion for some of the chaperones and student officers, and it's really nice. The mansion also includes the dining area and a third floor loft. This facility is affiliated with the Baptist church, however, it's open to anyone. This place would be ideal for church groups or adult groups that need to break out into separate meeting groups. And yes, kids' orchestra/band camps too. Also, our church (Catholic) conducted their teen group's confirmation retreat here as well, with great results. The outdoor facilities include a bonfire area, basketball and volleyball courts. Cons: Minor: their ice machine broke on one of the weekends that we were there, so the parents drove to Kapolei Costco to buy ice. We also heard that our school's band camp the week before also experienced the broken ice machine, therefore the broken ice machine had been unaddressed for at least 2 weeks. There's no pool. the front lawn area is uneven, ungraded, sloped and has trees in a grove, so if you want to do football or soccer, it would be difficult. There are other open areas on the property that might suffice if you need a large open outdoor area. however, because our group spent most of the time indoors and in the grove area, I can't really evaluate the features of the other outdoor spaces.

They told me they had a party last week and everything was fine. They include the kitchen, but you are not allowed to use the ice box or the stoves you only can use the countertop and the spot to wash dishes. they also have a little backyard playground. look like they had some kind of project going on back there they had wood piles of dirt, some sand and we have to make sure our guest wasn't touching any of that. They did not block anything off. other than that bathroom was really nice and clean and they had a stage.

This is my third or fourth visit to Kaeo Studios, but my first time leaving a review and I remember…read morethis place being the exactly as it is today. The building that this spot is in looks a little rough, but once you enter Kaeo Studios, it's a vibe! There are many businesses that operate in the same building so parking can be limited until 9pm. Our party was in the Trellis Room and the aesthetic is so cute! It's designed to look like a garden and is very spacious. This room can seat about 20/30 people and there is a separate little room for kids or people who don't want to be in the Karaoke mix hehe. There is no food served as it is BYOB and bring your own food. The service is always efficient and awesome. I am hoping to book my mom's party here this year!

I stumbled upon this place by chance. I was in initial disbelief that there was a decent karaoke…read morespace in my hood. Caller & spoke with the owners & scheduled for my husband to swing by & view. Whelp, lucky us, we have a great karaoke space in our hood! Online reservations make it easy to see what's available. We opted for the pergola room (teenagers bday party) which accommodates 24. Super cute setup, very spacious, private bathroom (it was kinda hidden!). We were allowed to being in our own food & drinks, & they were kind enough to allow me to have personal decorations put up before my daughter arrived. I can't tell you firsthand how the karaoke system setup is (the teenagers made the decisions for the night) but I do know the songs were submitted via their phones. There a QR code to scan, etc. Either way, there weren't any mixups with the songs, pretty smooth. They do have a one/ time charge of $3 per person, if I remember correctly that's like a clean up fee. They also offer some small snacks. Various rooms to accommodate all size parties! They're located in Westgate shopping center, upper floor (Thelma's Filipino food & Leeward drive in are downstairs). Parking lot is decent sized but can definitely fill up with the number of other establishments here.

I strongly recommend that people think twice before doing business with Kapila Gardens. Our…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing and, frankly, disrespectful. We arrived early in the morning, not realizing that the venue didn't open until 10am. Because it had been raining, the grass was wet, and when we drove in, it created some muddy tracks. Instead of handling the situation professionally, the owner immediately became hostile. We were met with insults about our intelligence and were spoken to with profanity. Rather than calmly explaining the situation or asking us to leave respectfully, we were told to "get the fuck out" of the property and asked, "who the tf do you think you are?" The entire interaction felt aggressive and completely uncalled for. Everyone makes simple mistakes, especially when information like opening hours isn't clearly known beforehand. But there's no excuse for treating potential clients with that level of disrespect. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this venue to anyone looking for a professional, welcoming place to host an important event like a wedding.

I'm a new member of Ailani Garden's CSA. So far, I am impressed with the amount of produce for the…read moremoney and the quality as well. We pick up our bag from the Kapolei location which is really convenient for us considering we live in Ewa Beach. Rasika even brought a box of mangoes and offered us as many as we could eat (and we LOVE mangoes!) The bag included the mangoes, a bag of salad greens (probably 6 servings or so), a small amount of dill, a bunch of kale, some very potent YUMMY smelling flowers (but I'm not sure if they're edible?), a bunch of moringa and a few small carrots. The produce was all very fresh and tastes amazing. My only small complaint is that they don't give you a card with your bag's contents and their website just has a generic greens list with pictures. Luckily I was able to figure out the moringa thanks to their website, but I'm still not sure about the flowers so they may go to waste. I highly recommend this CSA. It's less expensive than the others on the island and the organic produce is hard to beat. FYI - they also have a Kailua pickup available.
