“I have had the pleasure of working with many wonderful clients buying and selling Kauai Real Estate. Below is a sampling of what my clients have to say about working with me. Mahalo for your trust, confidence and appreciation!”

Ashley Carvalho

“Blessed are they whose path leads to Kauai Realty, for they shall find Aloha.  Ashley Carvalho and Mark Tanaka brought a formidable set of legal, financial, diplomatic and cultural skills to my home search three years ago.  Most important, they learned who I really am, they put my needs first, and they know the way the island trade winds blow.  Kauai’s first realty company remains her finest, and I recommend them without reservation.”  – Margaret 

“From start to finish we received excellent advice, guidance, support and service in the sale of our property in Kauai. Kauai Realty was an invaluable asset. They gave us many helpful suggestions and all the necessary guidance throughout the entire process in a professional and timely manner that resulted in a successful sale. We live in Honolulu and needed to depend on Mark and Ashley a lot and we were kept fully informed throughout the entire process.”  – Vince & Gail 

“When it was time to sell my home on Kauai, I worked with the Mark and his daughter Ashley Carvalho.  They arranged for painting and renovating the house, designed beautiful marketing ads and held my hand as I sold what had been my dream home.  Ashley really listened when I talked about my home, and answered every one of my questions.  Even now when I have questions about post sale issues such as payments or taxes, they are both timely and thorough in their response.  I recommend them highly. ”  – Beth

“Mark Tanaka and Ashley Carvalho found me the perfect home.  Their knowledge, awareness and experience not only helped in guiding me, but also saved me a lot of money.   They stepped up for me when complications arose and went above and beyond any expectations.  My transaction would not have happened if not for Mark and Ashley. ”  – Ken 

“Deciding to move forward in making the biggest purchase of our lives may have sounded nerve wrecking in a nutshell.  Working with our Ashley Carvalho of Kauai Realty has made our home buying experience totally opposite.  Ashley explained every step in the buying process and helped us prepare for what was ahead of us.  She always kept us updated and was always available to answer any questions.  In addition, she extended her help in many ways from coordinating time for us to see our prospective home on several occasions and also driving out to the Westside to pick-up a document when we couldn’t go to the office. We cannot describe how excited we are as homeowners.  A big Mahalo to Ashley & the Kauai Realty ohana for making our BIG dream become reality!”  – Phil & Eunice 

“Working with Ashley and Mark from Kauai Realty was an enjoyable and easy process.  I felt they had my best interest in mind when it came to finding the home I needed for my family.  Professional, thorough, and good people who I would use again as well as recommend them to my family and friends.  I am glad I got to work with them. ”  – Melody 

“Ashley has to be the hardest working realtor on Kauai!  She is extremely responsive, easy to work with, and promptly followed up on all issues (both significant and seemingly minor) that we raised.  Ashley worked with us tirelessly for years until we finally found our dream home.”  – Paul & Andrea 

“We would like to thank Ashley Carvalho at Kauai Realty for helping us with our purchase. We truly felt that she kept our best interest in mind and we were able to trust her with this big decision. ”  – Glenn & Lynn 

“Truly the name – Kauai Realty – says it all. They know Kauai like no one else and are the most professional, personable and knowledgeable Realtors you could hope to work with.  We had the pleasure of working with Ashley Carvalho and Mark Tanaka and are so appreciative of all the assistance and guidance they provided us. We truly couldn’t have done it without them!  We highly recommend both of them – and Kauai Realty – anytime someone asks who the best Realtors on Kauai are.”  – Andrea & Chuck
