We were hoping Royalty Realty had something available for what we were looking for (sadly they didn't at the time) since we've had the best experience over the past 4 years with them. Our amazing property manager Michelle Lum made living in one of their units such a joy. Any little issue that came up she was right there and always so helpful every step of the way. We appreciate everything they've done for us, especially her, and making our living experience so comfortable. We will definitely always check back in with Michelle for our future property needs. Thank you for the last 4 amazing years. Aloha!

Renter Beware: Avoid This Property Management Company…read more I rented through this agency for over 4 years, always paid on time, and left the apartment in better condition than when I moved in. Despite this, they withheld most my security deposit and tried to charge me for furniture that was never even provided in the unit. This wasn't an isolated incident of poor service -- I had requested replacement curtains after mine fell apart, and it took the agency over a year to follow through. Communication was consistently unresponsive and unprofessional throughout my tenancy. What makes this worse is that I now own a rental property myself. Having seen how this company treats tenants, I would never use them -- not as a renter, and not as an owner looking for a property management company. They seem far more interested in squeezing every dollar from deposits than treating good tenants fairly. If you're considering renting from this agency, think twice. And if you're a property owner considering hiring them to manage your property, look elsewhere.

Not trustworthy! My husband booked a place for us as we look for longer term housing. A while after…read morebooking and getting confirmation, they sent an email. It's a holiday weekend and they demanded a response the same day. We replied the following morning but were told they already cancelled our reservation. Wouldn't we just book again at their new price that's $1,500 more? Talking to them to try and resolve, it was clear they just wanted more money. There was no urgent issue, they never called, they just decided they could get more money than our reservation. So be warned if you reserve with them... they may leave you hanging. EDIT: The owner left a response citing verification processes. We completed everything asked for on booking and NEVER received any communications on August 28 or 29. I have the message receipts and can gladly share. Our only message was Aug. 30 and we responded within a day, despite the holiday weekend! The property was still available. They just wanted to jack the price over $1k.

The staff could not have been kinder or more accommodating. They immediately set us up with everything we needed for a relaxing day by the water and even offered us a discount, which was such a thoughtful touch. They delivered everything right to our resort and later came back to pick it all up, making the experience effortless from beginning to end. The owner was especially wonderful--warm, genuine, and full of great recommendations for local spots to eat and explore. It was such a beautiful reminder of the true aloha spirit we love so much. As someone who grew up on the island of Guam--another beautiful but farther-to-reach Pacific gem--returning to Hawaii always fills my spirit with that same island way of life: generous, easygoing, deeply rooted in community and kindness. I'm so grateful for places and people like this who make you feel right at home, wherever you are in the world.

The beds were super comfortable, and the local artwork throughout the condo gave it a unique charm.

Great restaurants and shopping were all within a very short walking distance. Although bus stops were conveniently located one street over, we loved having a parking space ONSITE for our trips to the other side of the island. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay and the perfect beachside retreat in Honolulu. We left feeling refreshed and can't wait to come back!

If I can sum up the sale of my childhood home experience in one word, it would be: GUIDED…read more Closing the chapter on my childhood home was a very emotional experience but having Khai and his team by my side made things easier than I thought it would be. From the very beginning, I could tell that Khai was looking out for my family's best interest. He took the time to listen to the story of the home, how many generations have been there, what our intentions and future family/generation goals are. We discussed a plan and Khai was alongside us every step of the way. Whenever I had concerns or needed help in certain areas (ex. needed a painter), Khai had solutions and provided several options. Whenever I felt confused or not sure where to turn, Khai would take the time to consult the pros, cons and things to consider with me. Khai and his team helped to navigate me with much respect. Never once did I feel pushed or rushed into making a decision. As I look back on the experience, I very much felt guided and supported. We trust Khai and his team so much that we included him in our family estate plan as the official family real estate agent. Thank you, Khai, Janelle, and everyone who has been by our side in this process. We look forward to working with you in the many years ahead!
