Landscape service receives national award for Beach House
HANAPEPE — No Ka Oi Landscape Services (NKO) was given a Grand Award for the Beach House Restaurant in the 2010 Annual Environmental Improvement Awards Program sponsored by the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET).
“The Beach House Restaurant has earned a reputation on Kaua’i that goes well beyond its award winning cuisine and breathtaking setting…What makes this property extra ordinary is the public lawn access that the owners provide to the Kaua‘i community,” says NKO CFO Abigail Santos.
“No Ka Oi nominated the Beach House Restaurant for the PLANET 41st Annual Environmental Improvement Awards Program for the role they play in supporting Po‘ipu’s ocean coast natural character and for carefully maintaining a local cultural open space that the public enjoys.”
