What an inspirational story of the Okami family. I remember both your parent’s growing up in Hawaii as musicians. The Okamis are truly blessed. Love your ukuleles.

I’ve played, fallen in love with, purchased several different ukulele. But when I got to KoAloha, Pikake, I knew I was home. I would hold my KoAloha ukulele up to any other, I love it. Mahalo to the Okami Ohana for making such wonderful instruments.

This really is a wonderful video about the family and history of Koaloha. I love these ukes and own two but if I could afford I'd have one of every single model… ❤

I am proud to be a new owner of a Koaloha slimline tenor!

My Ko'Aloha sounds unique, is very easy to play. But everyone should be aware, that the tuners may get broken quite soon. If that happens, a slight click when tuning, it won't work anymore. Three of four tuners got broken already. I got them replaced one by one. Ok, but not suitable to play in front of people. So from my point of view you should state, which tuners you would recommend for replacement. By the way, this should not happen to an instrument at that price.

Great ukuleles I wish they would reply to emails😢

Took a while due to different time zones etc but KoAloha did get back to me and replaced a faulty tuning peg free of charge and dispatched it very quickly great service very happy now my uke is back to sounding great thank you all at KoAloha 🤙🎶🎵🎵🤙
