What Does Aloha Living Mean?

The simple translation of Aloha is love, as well as, hello and goodbye, but to live the “Aloha Spirit” is something that can only be done with a community. Living out Aloha is sharing your gratitude, joy, and love with others. Where you call home is a sacred place and should be treated with Aloha.

Meet the Owner

Aloha Living Remodel Management is solely owned and operated by Kelley Elder who grew up in Maui, and is so happy to call Juno Beach her home. She enjoys being outside with her husband and all things on the water as well as participating in her church community. Kelley started her professional career as a Doctor of Physical Therapy, but after her home was flooded she developed a passion for remodeling and managing projects. Kelley lives in a condo community and understands the ins and outs of running a property. Working as a physical therapist, Kelley developed skills that translate well into project management: listening to clients goals, setting a plan with a specific deadline, time management, clear communication, passion for learning and education, multitasking, and being the go between. She gets joy out of understanding your vision, developing a plan, and seeing the end product.

Kelley's Remodel Journey

Have you ever seen 33,000 gallons of water in a home?!

Sprinkler heads sure pump out water…scary to slowly see the water rise in your home to the point your feet are completely wet and boxes are getting wet as you have not fully unpacked after moving in.

What now? Where am I going to live during this mess? How much is this going to cost? I don’t know any contractors? How do I know who to trust? How long is this going to take? With no family living locally, our friends and church network carried us through this journey

But it really starts to feel like a house when cabinets and paint go up. We took 3 weeks picking out paint and so glad we did because it really elevated each room!

Final touches. Lighting…sooooo many choices! Wow we live here!!! ❤

We added a custom built-in unit at front entry by arch, added a pocket door to Den to make it a functional room, put a waterfall edge and large over hang for bar stools on kitchen counter, and added a half wall in the shower to hide hand levers and shower niche.

Furnishing our home during a supply chain shortage. Still waiting on 6 dining chairs and a bed frame!!
