Hal Wilkerson and the Hawaii Coastal Property Management team have been a dream to work with as a renter. So much so that we plan to use them to manage our own rental properties in the future. They're kind, prompt, and exceptionally responsive. Nothing but positive things to say.
I was referred to Hal by one of his contractors last year in October 2025 because I needed a trusted Property Manager to handle our property in Ewa Beach, HI. Once we had gone over his and our responsibilities I knew we were getting the right guy along with his company to handle our property. Due to our connection with military service I knew I was in the right care for our home to be managed and handled the right way. My property was on the market for rent for 6 months with another Property Management and when Hal and his team took over it took less than a month to have renters oocupy the resident. Heather was also involved during the process and have had many contact with her handling our property and she is so transparent handling our Hawaii GE taxes and also any issues with the home. I can say that I have peace of mind knowing that our asset is being handled with care. Very professionaland and experienced in what they do. Awesome to have partnered with Hawaii Coastal Property Management.
After working with two other property management companies and dealing with so many frustrations, finding Hawaii Coastal Property Management has truly been a blessing. As a military family living in another state, we find that leaving our home behind is stressful and, honestly, a little scary. You need someone you can trust to take care of your property as if it were their own, and that's exactly what Hawaii Coastal and Mr. Hal have done for us. They genuinely care about both their clients and their properties. They're easy to work with, always quick to respond, and, most importantly, our rental income is always paid on time. Every question we've had has been answered promptly, and they've handled everything professionally, making the entire process so much easier. The peace of mind they've given our family is priceless. All the stress and worry we had after our previous experiences disappeared because we know our home is in good hands. I would recommend Hawaii Coastal Property Management 1,000% to anyone looking for a property management company they can truly trust. Thank you for everything you do!
Hawaii Coastal PM has provided me with the peace and confidence that my property is being cared for and delivering higher than expected results. They have rented my mid-term rental well above my expectations and within the terms I've made. Their accounting measures are tight and, when an issue arises they have promptly addressed and corrected it. They're responsive and accommodating to both the tenant and myself. Background info: I am a real estate professional and have worked with numerous PMs.
Hal and Hawaii Coastal PM are exemplary in all aspects of PM. Attentive, professional, prompt and pleasant to work with. If you're needing PM or considering a change- put Hawaii Coastal PM at the top of your list!
I'd like to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service I recently received from Heather. The assistance was professional, timely, and extremely helpful in resolving my general excise tax needs. Thank you for the outstanding support. Best regards, Dennis B.
Working with Hawaii Property Advisors and Hawaii Coastal Property Management has honestly been one of the best experiences had with any property management team. They truly embody the spirit of aloha. They are caring, responsive, and consistently on top of everything. Tenants are treated with respect, issues are handled quickly, and nothing falls through the cracks. It brings real peace of mind knowing the property is in such good hands. Couldn’t recommend them more. Huge shout out to Hal and Heather. You both are amazing!!
Honest and helpful professionals. Hal is very understanding and compassionate. He really went to bat for us in a tough situation. Heather is equally helpful. She has been so patient and kind in helping us resolve any issues. This team is a pleasure to work with and truly care about what they do and who they help.
