Nothing is more Hawaiian than a Ukulele. Sure you can go to an ABC store and get one for $ 15, but if it’s a real instrument you want with quality craftsmanship, then you need to find a more viable option. Hence, this is one of them. Located in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, it’s a cool place to visit. Selection here is quite large but limited to 3 to 4 brands. Ironically, not all made in Hawaii. But they are good brands nonetheless. As you can imagine, prices in Waikiki will be higher here. But you will get to try out many models, something you can’t do on-line.

This shop is located in a shopping center near the hotel we are staying at. I have never been into a store, just dedicated to ukuleles. The man behind the counter seemed passionate when speaking to customers at the counter. This gave me time to look around without pressure. I was impressed with the various type of ukuleles, each one had its own personality.

I was there while on vacation about 4 years ago. Very fine selection of professional ukuleles not just some souvenir toy. I dropped 1600.00 on a custom shop koa g-string ukulele with them and couldn’t be happier with the instrument. It sounds like angels. Highly recommend this place!

I bought my Ukulele here, and also had a free Ukulele lesson. It was just OK. The owner or master of this shop seemed to have some attitude to customers. I was a little bit annoyed for that.

I bought my first ukulele here after taking a free lesson at the Royal Hawaiian mall. Yep, yep, I got hooked! Went looking here, and found a beginner, little cheapo, that doesn’t sound so bad. The folks there were very helpful, and they also offered a free lesson. Took a free lesson from them and learned more basic notes and chords. The instructor was extremely patient and was easy to learn from. In a matter of minutes – voila! – I was learning to play«Twinkle, twinkle, little star» and a couple of other songs on the ukulele. I intend to work my way up to a better ukulele, and come back here to buy one. If you’re musical or not, or you enjoy and appreciate the sounds of a ukulele, check this place out.
