Sachi's summer party

Gordon Biersch provided the food, and veteran events promoter David Booth handled most of the other arrangements, when Realtor Sachi Braden and the staff of Sachi Hawaii Pacific Century Properties hosted her fourth annual Summer Showcase Spectacular Celebration in a luxury residence overlooking Hawaii Kai on Friday.

The guest list included friends and family members as well as prospective buyers of the $4.2 million hideaway in the prestigious Napali Haweo area. Some partiers stayed on ground level or enjoyed the view from the terrace. Others explored other sections of the building -- inspecting the furnishings in the four bedrooms, checking out the five luxurious full bathrooms and taking note of the current owners' art collection.
