So GREAT! My boyfriend and I came to this spot after a lot of research, and sense it was our last day before heading back home we were very excited. This place is the real deal; very professional. Kaib and Brandy were awesome. We presented our ideas and for several hours critiqued what we wanted. Their input + expertise helped our visions come to life. Both pieces came out amazing, would definitely recommend coming here:) read more

I'm really glad my wife and I came here, Kaib and Bry did an amazing job on us both. Very friendly, caring, honest, and very professional, not to mention extremely talented artists. My artwork by Kaib was all freehand, which shows how a true talented artist works. He met all my requests, including my mother's memory in the form of a pink ribbon. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants an artist who will bring a thought into reality. Thank you all. read more

I came in on Monday 11/20 via appointment to get another row of honu (sea turtles) added to my forearm. This is my tradition for my last day on the island every time I come to Maui. My previous Honu tattoos came from a shop in Lahaina that has unfortunately burnt down. Brandy was my artist and I have zero complaints. She was polite, respectful, took her time and did an amazing job. It didn't even hurt that much. Totally didn't feel like she was "digging for gold" like some of my other tattoos. I recommend her and I recommend Mid- Pacific tattoo. Can't wait to go back in 2025!!! read more

I'm on a trip in Maui with my mom after turning 18, as my namesake is Makena Beach. I decided when arriving that I wanted to capture this beautiful place in a tattoo momento. Brandy's art style and expertise stood out to me, and I booked with her. When discussing the price, as I'm on a budget, she said what I wanted would be a bit pricier, but ended up sticking to my quote. She was very professional, kind, and wonderful to talk to. She even asked me to come back and get another from her when I'm back in the area (I most certainly will!). All of the other artists were talkative, very friendly and fun to be around. The shop was cute, small and colorful, about .3 miles from my Airbnb in Kihei. Overall, an affordable price, a beautiful piece of art and great people. The presence was amazing. I will never forget this experience, and I'm so glad I chose Mid-pacific! I'll be coming back as soon as I'm back in town. read more

Came here for a tattoo consult with Kaib. He was very nice and addressed all of my concerns regarding the tattoo. I was worried that the colors I wanted to get wouldnt show well because of my complexion but he addressed that and I appreciated him not brushing past the topic. Ultimately, I decided to go with a different artist but I would still recommend Kaib. read more

We had a wonderful experience at Mid-Pacific with three different artists: Bry, Kaib and Alex. They all went above and beyond to make sure that my husband, myself and my daughter had the exact designs we wanted and did such an amazing job with them all! We will definitely return the next time we are in Kihei and highly recommend them and the shop. Clean, bright, welcoming with a talented, personable group of artists. 5 stars probably aren't enough. read more

Highly recommend! Seriously talented, all around cool artists to ink your skin are found here. Bry took care of my Auntie with a beautiful, bold hibiscus. Meanwhile, Kaib brought my vision of waves and Sampaguita together better than I could imagine. Even in the healing process people are like, "damn that's cool". If I ever get another chance to return to Maui, it's without a doubt, I'd plan a session to add more art. read more

I went there for an original tattoo that included symbolism of the ocean, family, and the words a hui hou.

He even offered to fix a tattoo I got 1 month ago that was not up to par. Awesome service, awesome artist. Can't wAit to go back. read more

They do amazing line work in their art. I had a picture I had been wanting in a tattoo for a while. He made it something tattoo'able and kept all the detail I was interested in.

Got my first [professional] tattoo done at this shop, by Bry Smith - December 12th, 2019. For reference, it's about 3inx3in, on my left forearm. I'd FOR SURE recommend her if you're getting your first tattoo done, or if you just want a really high quality tattoo; I could obviously ell that tattooing is her passion. WAITING FOR AN APPOINTMENT BY HER IS WORTH IT. She blew me away with the simple idea I gave her, because she took the photo I sent her and made it better. She did amazing. One of my favorite things about my piece is that there's a shadow from his sash across his stomach. She took a lot of care and precision but still gave me what I wanted. Before the session started, she printed out multiple sizes of the tattoo and let me play around with the placement, and she was all for it when I mentioned that I wanted to add the blue framing around him. Besides the amazing tattoo, she's a very accommodating and considerate person. As stated before, it was my first professional tattoo, and she made me very comfortable - as comfortable as I can be for getting stabbed with needles for almost 2 hours. If you're worried about the cleanliness of this shop, I'd say it's very clean - almost immaculate. I personally could tell that the shop is cleaned frequently, well taken care of and is very modern, as in you're not walking back to the 80's when you enter. The area where we sat to work was very clean. Bry took a noticeable amount of time prepping/cleaning, and cleaned her surroundings (and my tattoo) as she went along. If you care, she even took her gloves off and changed them halfway through the tattoo. Long story short: - Bry is an amazing artist. I'm recommending her to everyone: first time tattoo and tattoo veterans. - The shop was very clean - I'm in love with my tattoo - I would definitely come back. The only thing that I would change about my experience is the fact that I don't live in Maui, so I can't go every week! Lol read more

I was recently staying in Kihei for my first trip to Hawaii and wanted a tattoo. I talked with Bryanna about the idea I had and we set an appointment for later in the week.

Got ink by Curtis and couldn't be happier. He knows his stuff and his line work is on point. We collaborated on the final design and he was super patient about making changes. Stoked that he was well versed in Polynesian tradition and symbols. He even Re-bandaged it again because I was getting on a plane the next day and wanted to protect it. read more

The whole experience was weird. My husband and I booked to get tattoos on our honeymoon in Maui. Our artist had our design, a simple sun and moon. I told Brandy I wanted a small one and she said "I can't go any smaller." I was confused since I have many small single needle tattoos. Then she proceeds to comment on my arm tattoos and how "they are too small and will blur together in a few years." She then says "there was miscommunication" and "that's just how tattoos work." I was so disappointed and then she said I couldn't get my $50 deposit back even though it was her fault she can't do fine line! I couldn't believe it. I went to their company yelp page and see the awful tattoos that they have done and bad reviews. I didn't trust her to tattoo anything on my body, however she had already startled on my husband. Thankfully she did an okay job on my husbands tattoo and gave a $50 discount on his tattoo without saying anything. Wouldn't recommend, weird energy, and mediocre artists. read more

This was my first tattoo and I do not regret it. Curtis was friendly and helpful. He helped calm my fears and I made it through! Now I have a beautiful turtle tattoo to remind me of my favorite place on earth, Maui!! read more

Mid-Pacific Tattoo Kihei - My honu tattoo - Art Galleries Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

I've been itching to get a new tattoo for a long time but didn't know what I wanted to get. I booked myself a quick getaway trip to Maui because my soul was in dire need of some cleansing. I contacted a few different tattoo shops in Maui, but none of them worked for the time that I was here. This place was super close to my Airbnb and once I came in to inquire about it, everything just fell into place. Bryanna was at the front desk and was very helpful. I booked an appointment for the following day with her and it was all sooooo simple! She had great energy and I felt no pain through it all. I fell in love with my tattoo and am forever grateful for this amazing experience. Thank you Bryanna for helping make this trip that much more awesome! read more

On vacation for a wonderful week just before my 42nd birthday and decided I wanted my first tattoo. So to Yelp I came to find my person. After narrowing it down to two places, I walked into this place and ended up talking to Desmond. I was nervous and am happy to say that Desmond was great. He didn't make me feel like a silly newbie. He put me at ease and we booked my appointment for a few days later. I showed up for my appointment and enjoyed the banter between all the employees. You could tell they all get along and it was a cool vibe. Desmond set up his area and everything was sterile and he was meticulous about his set up. He showed me my drawing and we talked about the shading and then it was time to begin. I could tell Desmond definitely knew what he was doing and before I knew it, I was done. I loved the final product. It came out better than I even imagine. And was less painful that I thought it would be. I look forward to taking another trip to paradise and getting a second tattoo in the future! read more

I've wanted a tattoo for a while and while visiting Maui with my husband, I decided to get a tattoo of Plumerias on my hip. I love the flower and it has special meaning because Maui is where my husband and I spent our honeymoon and where we like to visit. We visited another shop in Lahina and then after researching online, went to Mid Pacific Tattoos and talked to the staff there. We read great things about Tommy and were told we could find him at the Kihei shop so we went there. Tommy was very professional and welcoming. Camila was awesome and helped us get it scheduled before we had to leave the island. We gave them the ideas we had and they went to work researching different ideas and artwork for the tattoo while we waited for the day of my appointment. The preparation was impressive by Tommy and his staff. They came up with an amazing piece of artwork that Tommy then created the perfect design from. Tommy then created a stencil to make sure it was what I wanted, transferred it to the location on my body for the tattoo to make sure I was comfortable with the location and size of the tattoo, and just to make sure filled in the stencil transfer with pen with all the detail. We went ahead with the tattoo based on that design and the finished product is better than I could have imagined. It was my first tattoo and Tommy made the whole experience great and I cannot say enough about the high quality of his work and creativity. I would recommend Mid Pacific Tattoo and Tommy because I was so happy with the experience, skill, professionalism and the cleanliness of his shop really made an impression. This is NOT your typical tattoo shop, they care about you and the work they do. Here is a pic of my finished tattoo. Cindy G. using my husbands yelp account read more

Got a beautiful shark tattoo by Bry I absolutely love it!. The tattoo she designed captured everything I wanted.

Tommy (the owner), Desmond, and Camila were awesome to work with! So glad I found these amazing artists! I have had many tattoos in my day but this was my husbands first. He was quite nervous but Desmond did an amazing job!! He wanted a Polynesian Tattoo that wasn't too heavy on his calf and I got to say, my husband cannot be more excited about this artwork on his leg. He cannot wait to have more done by Desmond. Today I also got a tattoo by Tommy who does crazy great work with flowers. My husband and I got married a few days ago and I wanted my bouquet replicated in my tattoo. Tommy's work on my calf made me speechless! The team at Mid-Pacific Tattoo is wonderful! They are easy to work with, great personality, and talented artists! Please stop by and get a tattoo if you are in the market! They will not disappoint! They can do all types of work too as they have several artists with different styles! So exuberantly happy with our art that I cannot wait to get more! Thanks Camila and gentlemen! read more
