What a beautiful sacred place to rest in peace. I loved it to see so many international and different religion together in one place to honouring life in the beauty of the nature in Hawaii. Really worth it to visit. So grateful that I went there and Helena was really supportive. Appreciate her sharing about this special place.

Thank you much Jessica and Heather for getting my family through the most difficult time. It's genuine feeling beyond words. Came sunshine, cloud or rain, this place is always sitting calmly and comforting. Soul cleansing.

“I visited the Byodo-In Hawaii Temple next door briefly, but I was completely mesmerized by the beautiful and stately family 'structures' (or plots?) on the hillside with the 'Haka Garden' sign. The hillside was nicely maintained, no sneaky cobwebs or dead leaf piles. The engravings were beautiful. What a peaceful area and with such gorgeous views down the valley.”

“AI advances, human feelings not, yet. Cultural nuances still matter, a lot. Thank you Kate for walking us through every detail professionally with care. Along with Jessica, Jane and Jo these wonderful ladies are the true backbone of the business. I went into this blindly and suddenly without knowing much. Consider myself very lucky being right at first shot. Best wishes to all!”

“Emily Sherych is the best funeral arranger our family could ever have during this very difficult time. Our dad unexpectedly passed away ending of February, 2 days after his 60th birthday. My siblings and I are young and did not have any single clue on what happens from when a loved one dies, how to have their celebration of life, etc to burial or cremation. We wanted to have his service within a month of his passing. Already in distraught, we have called and browsed multiple funeral homes/mortuary on island, no one could really tells us straight the process nor the prices but asked us to jump through more hoops to get the information we need. All our request is that, we want dad's body viewed at the chapel and cremated the following day and that he will be taken from the hospital as soon as we sign the release form and also that they have their own crematorium so we know that our dad's body will only be under one provider. Valley of the Temples and Emily from the beginning responded right away through email and phone calls with the information we need. Emily was extremely patient with us with all our questions knowing we had ZERO idea on how this process works. She gave us dates and timelines that worked for our family. She provided options that made sense. She did not haggle or were ever rude. Emily was kind and caring and made sure every detail that involved the care of our dad to the beautiful celebration of life were handled professionally and promptly. Emily was always in touch and did not disappear after we committed to their care and after we paid. Valley of the temples have exceeded our expectations. They cared for our dad as if they knew him and gave us and him the utmost respect. Their main chapel/facility is CLEAN and cool. The beautiful view of windward side is just a plus. There is always there to greet and assist you. Valley of the Temples (VOT) staff have sincere compassion. Also, I was made aware that they need more staff, there were only Erin and Axel, 2 of them the night of dad's service but they still did a wonderful job. We weren't rushed and you can tell that they love what they do. If you have any interest in this field, and have the heart of Emily, consider applying for VOT. The day we picked up dad's urn, we did wait a little but their Manager Shannon made sure that we got dad as promised. We highly recommend going to Valley of the Temples. Our Aloha nui to VOT.”
