Borthwick Kauai Mortuary

Borthwick Kaua'i Mortuary has been a pillar of the Koloa community since its founding in 1928. Originally operated by the Medeiros family, this historic funeral home was acquired by Hawaiian Memorial Life Plan in 1987 and renamed Borthwick Kaua'i Mortuary. It joined the Dignity Memorial network in 1992, gaining access to exclusive benefits like a relocation protection program. Located at 3168 Poipu Road in old Koloa town, the funeral home is a recognizable landmark that echoes the architectural style of a plantation building, paying homage to the area's heritage as the site of Hawaii's first sugar cane plantation. Just 20 minutes from Lihu'e and near St. Raphael Church, its peaceful setting is surrounded by the natural beauty of Kaua'i.
