About Nakamura Mortuary

Nakamura Mortuary is a full-service funeral home in Wailuku, Maui, operating as part of NorthStar Memorial Group, a national corporate chain — families who prefer locally or independently owned funeral homes should keep that in mind. They offer a range of services including cremation, traditional burial, and pre-planning, and appear to have some experience serving veterans, though at least one reviewer noted frustration with how military honors were coordinated during a cremation arrangement. Pricing information is not publicly available for direct comparison, though one reviewer mentioned a cremation fee in the range of $2,000, with a concern that certain included items — such as an ID viewing — were not clearly explained upfront, which is worth asking about directly. On Google, Nakamura holds a 4.6-star rating across 68 reviews, with many families specifically praising staff members Chasity and Michael for their compassion and unhurried guidance; however, at least one family described feeling stressed and unsupported during an already difficult time, so the experience may vary depending on who assists you.

Seems professional, but a hot mess. All my father wanted was to be cremated and get a military sendoff as he was a Purple Heart recipient for his actions in Vietnam. (Edited portion: As part of the $2,000 fee for the cremation there was an "ID viewing" which was not clearly described so it was only …

I was the only family member on island to represent dad. My sister and brother could not get a flight on such short notice. And I called them from Nakamura's, from the: "don't gotta wait no more" room. (they gone) I shared with them how Chasity and Michael are professional angels who made my visit s…

I and the family of Wanda Chambers are saddened and disappointed at the level of service we received from Nakamura's.

Michael Gray was amazing and made us feel really comfortable discussing something that could be difficult. We are grateful and feel more at ease for our children knowing they don’t have the burden of arranging for our resting place.

She gently guided us through all the available options for laying our beloved mother to rest, without ever pressuring us toward any particular choice. Everything was handl…
