    Dirt remaining on the dashboard in the seam next to the speaker.
    Jake N.

    I heard good reviews of this place from my coworkers so I took my 2015 Silverado. It's a work pickup with some stains in the upholstery and head liner. I simply wanted a thorough cleaning of the inside to get rid of dust and to see if any of the stains would come out. I was disappointed when I got it back. The stains weren't removed which is fine, but there was still grunge on the dashboard, behind the steering wheel, between the seats, on the seatbelt hangers, and in all the little places which are harder to reach but which are accessible simply by turning the steering wheel or sliding the seat forward. After getting home I had to wipe the interior down with a rag to finish removing the dirt.

    I am changing my review from two to 4 stars because of how promptly I revived a response after leaving the initial review. They took the time to clean the ceiling of the vehicle and even gave us a coupon for a free cleaning good for one year. I would have done 4.5 stars if possible but I didn't do 5 stars because my husband (who took the car in for the second cleaning) isn't sure they did the best job and when he showed up for the appointment, they said we were there on the wrong day, though, thankfully they did it anyway. I will likely continue to come here because this auto detailing service keeps trying to deliver great service and I appreciate the effort!

    I've had my car detailed multiple times at Hawaiian Island Auto Detailing because I used to work at Restaurant Row. There was nothing better than dropping my dirty silver Lexus RX300 in the morning & then picking up a shiny pretty Lexus RX300 in the afternoon! They were always really good at having my car cleaned by the agreed upon time whenever I've gone there. Best thing you can do is drop it off in the morning before work then pick it when you're finished in the late afternoon. Detailing can get pretty spendy but it's worth it if you want to keep your car looking swanky! Dave the owner is a cool guy (and a golfer!) and they're offering a pretty good deal right now for Kama'aina. It's not cheap like the drive thru car wash but when you get your car back it's almost as good as brand new!

    So despite mixed reviews I decided to try this place out because it was convenient. Unfortunately the bad reviews were right. First, I called and asked about pricing for my Mazda 5. I specified that it was the model with the sliding rear doors. The guy who answered, and then helped me today, said "oh, the station wagon" and said he used to sell Mazda's and knew which car I was talking about. I told him I really wanted the inside cleaned because the seats were dirty. He told me it would be $100 to get the kamaaina special which includes exterior wash/wax and interior cleaning (carpets, dash, cup holders, etc.), and an additional $45 to clean the seats, for a total of $145. When I got there the next day for my appointment he said he was confused and was thinking about the Mazda 3 when he gave me the quote. Then he went on to say the interior cleaning alone would be $145 but that he would also include a basic car wash. I was already there early in the morning and had switched cars with my mom, as it was her vehicle I was getting it cleaned for her birthday. So I said fine. When I got back it didn't look washed although he claimed it was when I asked. Also, the inside was just ok. He said it would look better when I drove it out because the business is in the parking structure at restaurant row, which has kind of dim lighting. I didn't want to argue about the wash figuring I could wash it again myself later. But then when I drove it out and back to work, I was really disappointed. Some of the seats were still stained and there was dust and dirt still present on the steering wheel as though they hadn't cleaned it at all. There was what looked like lint from cheap rags all over the side door panel and the console and the center console area was still dirty as though not cleaned at all. Then when I got out I could see very clearly in the sunlight they didn't wash the car at all. There were small bird poop droppings still present on the car and also there was debris (leaves, twigs, and even a black monkey pod) in the front area where the windshield wipers are. Bottom line - I'm embarrassed to take the car back to my mom for her birthday and will have to probably do a bunch of work cleaning the inside and washing the car myself. What a waste of money.

    Doesn't deserve a one star rating. Pictures and videos (Red Tacoma) explains the type of work they do. Brought truck in at 8am and didn't get it till 3pm for a wash/wax, vacuum, and interior wipe down. There's a place on Kapiolani I could have went to and would of saved me time and money ($80).

    I believe this used to be under a different business name. However, the prior owner had to pass on…read morehis business due to personal reasons. I was a little hesitant on how the next business owner would be, but I decided to give him a try. I'm so glad I did because I've been coming here for months now. Booking an appointment is easy and Colby (new owner) is very responsive. He usually gets back to me by the end of the day. LOCATION: They are located in the Pacific Guardian Center... the entry to their building is on Alakea Street. Pull a ticket and drive up to the 10th floor. COST: Depending on what you wanna get, he hand wash and dries your car... I have a black car so I don't trust taking my car to an auto car wash place. Inquire with the business because the prices my change. Overall, for the convenience and quality, it's definitely worth it. SERVICE: Colby is very responsive via text message or phone. I usually drop my car off and then grab a bite to eat downstairs and catch up on some reading. When he's about done with my car, he texts me and then I head back upstairs. The garage ticket is also automated. So you don't have to worry about paying for the garage fee on the way out. I've been coming here for a few month now for a hand wash and quick vacuum of the interior. It's really convenient coming here because I live a very busy life. I'll be sure to add more photos the next time I'm there.

    I cannot say enough incredible things about Premier Island Auto Detail and Greg…read more I first met Greg during a very special (and stressful) time in my life--just one week before giving birth. I needed my car to be immaculately clean, and what he delivered completely exceeded every expectation. When I picked up my car, I was honestly in awe. It looked and felt brand new. What truly stood out, though, wasn't just the quality of his work--it was him. My family was with me, and Greg treated all of us with such genuine kindness, respect, and aloha. That moment has stayed with me ever since. He is truly one of those rare, good-hearted people you don't forget. Fast forward to recently--I had what I thought was a total nightmare situation. After a fishing day with my family, squid juice spilled into my car and soaked into the carpet. The smell was awful. No matter what I tried, it wouldn't go away, and I genuinely thought my car was permanently ruined. Of course, I reached out to Greg--and once again, he worked his magic. Not only did he completely remove the odor, but my car now smells (and feels) brand new again. I honestly don't know how he does it, but his attention to detail, work ethic, and level of care are unmatched. Greg is the only person I trust with my car. I recommend Premier Island Auto Detail to everyone--my friends, my clients, my family--because when you find someone this genuine and this talented, you don't keep it to yourself. Thank you infinitely, Greg. Your work and your spirit truly make a difference.

    NEWEST UPDATE: Aloha folks -- i've updated my review as…read morethere has been some progress. Greg reached out to me explaining that based on the video I sent, it appeared that the ceramic coating was working, but not how it should be. He asked if I could bring the vehicle in so that his team could wash it, and verify this in person. We agreed that I would drop my vehicle off on Friday. This will allow for a pickup on Saturday. Upon drop off, his guys, Zane and Kato accepted the vehicle and tested the ceramic. Right away, Zane said that it wasn't reacting correctly. I left my keys with them and was told that the vehicle would be ready for pickup the following day and I would be notified by call or text. Saturday -- Premiere is open until 6pm. Once 5pm came around I was admittedly starting to get a little bit nervous seeing as how I needed my car for work on Monday, and I knew they were closed on Sunday. I attempted to call and received no response. Living closeby, I just decided to head over. I got there about 540pm. Greg was there detailing the interior of a car. He had plenty of vehicles to take care of. He was friendly and apologized for the lack of communication, citing that he was swamped with the influx of vehicles. He explained that my car was "done" but that he, himself, had taken issue with it. When we approached my car, it was clear that work had been done. But upon closer inspection, there were water spots on my glass and streak marks on areas, exacerbated by the light from his cell phone flashlight. He was able to quickly wipe some of them off. He again apologized and said that he didn't like the work that was done and asked if he could keep my vehicle until Tuesday so that it could be completely redone. This I respect. Alot. For a boss to take ownership of their work and the work of their employees goes a long way. I left it -- picked it up on Tuesday. The car looks fantastic. Here's to waiting it out and see if the ceramic holds this time around. Very glad that I chose the boys at Premiere. Will update in a week :) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aloha all! Second time using the boys at Premiere Island Auto Detail. They did an amazing job on my camaro, that I felt it only right to use them for our SUV. My last interactions with Greg (the owner) and his team were nothing short of amazing. He is a personably guy. I reached out to them asking for an interior and exterior detail on my 2023 Mazda CX50. After some back and forth on the services, I ended up changing my service to a "basic" ceramic coating (which includes an exterior detail to prep it) and full interior detail. The price was amazing. Greg takes care of his customers. I wont mention it here as pricing can always change. As a reminder to anyone reading this -- its always a nice gesture to tip them, though, not required. Greg was able to take my car pretty quickly. I made the appointment for a drop off on Saturday. For those of you that don't know, ceramic coatings require a curing time, and therefore, I needed to leave my vehicle overnight. The garage is secure and under surveillance. It is easily accessible in the downtown area. I came back the next morning to pickup my car. It looked stellar! The lighting really makes the cars pop too. The exterior looked brand new (minus water spots that apparently weren't able to be removed from the 3m decals). The interior also looked great. I had some minor pet fur still embedded, but nothing to harp about. I noticed that the trunk space wasn't addressed though. No biggie. Now the reason for my decrease in rating: I want to start off by reiterating that Greg and his team are excellent dudes to work with. They are friendly, fast, and do good work. My Mazda, this time around, just isn't what I expected from them. I haven't been able to get back for the car wash because the weather has been awful -- so its been a little bit of time since the coating. There are some spots where the ceramic is noticeable. Particularly under the side mirrors, you can see the coating is still there and streaked on. The new formula that they used on this "basic" coating, definitely shows a difference. Maybe this coating only included one pass over, i'm not sure, but the beading effect just isn't there. Dirt and grime still clings to the car and it doesn't wash off with water. The roof doesnt appear to have been coated, but I could be wrong. The wheels were not coated. I am unsure if the glass was coated. The trim appears to have been coated but not wiped off properly. Anyway, do I recommend them? Absolutely. I still think they do good work at a great price. However, I would strongly encourage you to ask about their options for ceramic coating and not get a lesser package. Mahalo Premiere
