We have a new addition to the family at Maui What A Wonderful World, Bed and Breakfast. Our new Mail Post Tiki is here to guide you to the right place.

As you round the corner on the Umalu Place, you will see our stone Tiki with 2828 on the mailbox. This tiki is on the corner of Maui What A Wonderful World, Bed and Breakfast property.

Our Tiki is here to, according the local legend, scare away evil spirits. You are sure to have a wonderful time in Maui while staying with Jim and Eva Tantillo at our Maui Bed and Breakfast home.

Although I am a little late in posting, Maui What A Wonderful World, Bed and Breakfast is now a little (well a lot) greener! The Maui Sun is making us proud. Once our “green team” carried all 57 Solar Panels up a flight of stairs, then up a rickety latter, all 57 panels were installed and ready to work. What a beautiful sight!

Kind of Funny, Blue Solar Panels, Yellow Maui Sun makes our Maui Bed and Breakfast a beautiful shade of green!

 

The PV System at Maui What A Wonderful World, Bed and Breakfast is coming along. Two days and it already looks like something big is going on in Maui. The Maui sun is going to be very kind to us. We should be able to provide all the comforts to our guests without hurting the environment! That goodness for our Green Team. Thank you! Pono and Joe!

Now that the new roof is on and looking great and green, it is time to put the real “green” team on the job. Pono and Joe, two wonderful people are at work installing 57 PV panels on our new roof. I think for Pono and Joe anyway, Kermit is right. “it isn’t easy being green”.

They have already spent two very hot days measuring the roof at our Maui Bed and Breakfast home.

Thank you Pono

and Joe

for all of your hard work. We will watch it progress over the next few days

Anyone who has stayed with us here a Maui What A Wonderful World, Bed and Breakfast for the past year has heard me talking about our Solar Electric Panels. With a new PV system we can not only reduce our carbon footprint but also that of our guests while staying in Maui and sharing the bed and breakfast experience.

While going through the process of researching the PV System, the requirements from both the electric company and the County of Maui we have learned a lot and enjoyed the people we have worked with to make this to happen. Starting with a new roof. With a few hiccups on that end, (strictly my misunderstanding), the roof took a bit longer than expected.  We had two great roofers helping us. Ram Roofing was great, ordered the roofing material we wanted, had it stored and ready for us. Through my own misunderstanding, I thought he could not do the roof. I then had an angel call me. Dale Siegert stepped in and helped. He was here immediately, did an incredible clean, fast job. Not only was my roof done in record time, they were so nice, so clean, so efficient and so dependable! and at a great rate! Who could ask for anything more.

We started this process is June 2013.

July 2014 has given us a new roof an the work on the PV System has begun.

Thanks to Dale of Solar Direct in Florida, we have a great PV System for an incredible price. They send everything you need right down to the screws, nuts and bolts for a complete system.

Our new system was delivered on Tuesday, July 1, 2014. The people at DHX, Dependable Hawaiian Express were wonderful! They picked up the PV system, held it for us for almost 2 months and then delivered it when needed to our bed and breakfast here in Maui right on time with no hiccups or problems.

And soon we will be reducing or carbon footprint and helping our guests do the same.
