Professional quality and consistency with industry-wide short-term rental and hotel cleaning standards.
At Parrish Kauai, we have always had the highest standards of care for our properties. Guided by the experts, we are now implementing enhanced measures to ensure the health and safety of our guests, owners, vendors and employees as we respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and look ahead to the future.
“In this new environment, our singular goal is to instill confidence and assurance that health and safety is a top priority,” says JP Parrish, owner of The Parrish Collection Kauai. “As a member of VRMA and a frequent traveler at hotels myself, I am proud to align with the renowned experts at VRHP and AHLA, leveraging their global expertise to strengthen our already rigorous health and safety measures through our new Parrish Pro Clean program.”
The Vacation Rental Housekeeping Professionals (VRHP), a subsidiary of the Vacation Rental Management Association (VRMA), has developed the “Safe Home” program with expanded recommendations for cleaning vacation rental properties in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) unveiled its “Safe Stay” guidelines in conjunction with major hotel brands like Hilton, Marriott and Wyndham to standardize cleanliness. Their report outlines baseline practices and procedures meant to protect employees and guests alike.
“Parrish Pro Clean” is built upon an already high standard of housekeeping at our properties, where hospital-grade cleaning products and protocols were already in use. Our goal by layering on the new steps outlined in these two programs is to provide our guests assurance and peace of mind that when they stay at any Parrish Kauai property that every effort was made to ensure a high level of cleanliness, sanitation and disinfection.
Our Eleven Areas of Detailed Focus as Noted Above:
1. Door Handles & Knobs – all entry doors, keys, locks, closet doors, drawer and cabinet knobs…
2. Control Panels & Wall Switches – all AC controls, remotes, ceiling fan pulls and wall switches…
3. Remote Controls & Electronics – all on/off and function buttons, telephones, TVs, clocks…
4. Major Kitchen & Bathroom Surfaces – all tubs, counters, basins, bowls, seats, handles, faucets, and knobs…
5. Closet Goods – all safe keypads and handles, irons, beach gear, coolers, and beach umbrellas…
6. Clean Bed – all professionally laundered bed linens including blankets, coverlets and duvets…
7. Bath Amenities – all bulk dispensers, paper amenities and supplies…
8. Food Storage – no leftover food items or opened food storage supplies…
9. Hard Surfaces – all interior and exterior tables, chairs, arms…
10. Guest Amenities – all gifts, in room amenities and supplies…
11. Cleaning and Disinfection – whole room fogging for surfaces like carpets, rugs and upholstery…
While our guests will immediately see many of the new enhanced procedures like contact-less entry, behind-the-scene measures will also take place through employee training and new protocols, equipment and technologies. Only EPA approved products are being used to clean, sanitize and disinfect high-tough areas of our properties.
Our “Clean Bed” program uses Blue Wave Kauai, Kauai’s newest laundry facility to ensure that all our bed, bath and beach linens are laundered in a clean, sterile and temperature controlled facility.
Limiting face-to-face interactions at check-in will be balanced with virtual contact through our app, text and chat to ensure we are maintaining the highest level of personal service.
To help our guests maintain a level of cleanliness that suits them during their stay, each of our properties are well-stocked with essential cleaning supplies and amenities, including disinfectant spray, gloves, and hand sanitizer.
Parrish Pro Clean training and execution builds upon our renowned dedication to the professional property management service model and diligent attention to detail. Combined, we are reassuring our guests that our properties are safe places to stay while visiting Kauai.

We plan on coming out in early (Feb) 2023 for our 50th anniversary. We would like to rent 2 condos. One 3 bedroom. One two bedroom
Both would need central air. The 3 bdrm would be for 7-10 days. The 2 bdrm might be for 3-4 weeks. Could you please let me know availability and cost and units
