When we say we design our ukuleles for every skill level, we mean it. Get to know our three ukulele models to find the perfect fit for you.
The simple starter
Our Honu Series is perfect for the beginner ukulele player. The all-laminate sapele construction provides a full, bright tone and the laminate construction means it is durable and less susceptible to humidity changes. Aesthetically, it’s fairly simple, but it never compromises on sound quality.

Upgraded with solid wood
The Mano Series is our first solid top model. All mahogany production with a solid mahogany top provides a warmer tone and extra volume than the Honu. To elevate its aesthetic appeal, the Mano also adds maple binding and rosette, gold tuners and hardware, and dual strap pins.

Deluxe quality and aesthetics
The Kohala has all of the aesthetic upgrades of the Mano, including solid top, maple binding, gold tuners, and dual strap pins, but it’s built with acacia wood instead of mahogany. Acacia is revered for its beautiful, full tone and we’ve added abalone-style trim around the body.

I took some lessons with a borrowed ukulele, and I decided to continue learning with a ukulele. This one is great to learn on. It feels much higher quality than the one I was using before.
I am happy with my new toy !
The build quality is excellent! Love the sound and feel of this instrument and so happy it is part of my collection of instruments! Would definitely recommend, and purchase again! Thank you Honolau!
As a beginning uke player, I started with a smaller soprano ukulele that I purchased in Hawaii. I found the frets to be very small for my fingers and awkward to hold on to due to a previous broken wrist. Purchasing the Honu Tenor uke has made a huge difference in my ability play. The tone is rich and inspiring. Learning chords is now fun. Thank you Honolua!
I have to say I am very pleased with this purchase. Glad I went with the Deluxe version because it is well worth it, and it looks amazing. And the pictures on the web site do not do it justice. It is looks great, and the inlay is very nice. It does come with a nice basic case, but I suggest getting the better case upgrade (wish I did) because you will want to protect it the best you can, and keep it looking great. And yes, I would buy it again, and will probably purchase another one in the future, but with the upgraded case.
I just bought my third Honolua ukulele, a Kohala Deluxe Solid Top Tenor, and am very happy with the quality of the instrument. The finish, feel and tone are wonderful. The service and quick delivery were also appreciated!
I'm not able to play guitar anymore. Arthritis is not my friend. My brother suggested a baritone uke. It's exactly what i needed. It's a beautifully made instrument and the baritone is perfect if you are missing playing guitar. The deeper tone is quite satisfying. Honolua also plants 5 trees when you buy one and they are Canadian. That went a long way in choosing where I was going to make my purchase.
I decided that I loved playing my soprano ukulele and wanted it up the size to tenor. Got the “Mano Solid Top.” Then got introduced to the baritone and had to get one. Honolua “Kohala Deluxe Solid Top Baritone was my choice. Have been playing mostly the baritone lately and love camping but didn’t want to take the Kohala with me so now I have a Honu Baritone to take along on my camping trips which even has a rv trailer strap attached to it. Dave the owner is wonderful to work with, he is quick to respond to any questions or concerns that you have. The ukulele’s arrive quickly and are well packed. Easy to tune and they sound great. So happy to support a small Canadian company too!
I love the look and the sound of my ukulele! I'm very happy with it.
The Honu Baritone Ukulele is great for newcomers to the ukulele like me. The built-in tuner is really handy, the sound quality is really warm and pleasant, and the build quality is good. I've had mine for around two weeks and am really enjoying playing it. Delivery was really quick, and the freebies (gig bag, e-book, and stickers) are really cool. Definitely recommend.
I’ve had my baritone uke for a few days now, and it sounds amazing! It’s comfortable to hold and very pretty. I play guitar, but I was looking for something I could use anywhere, and this is perfect for it. I even let some other people play it, and they were pleasantly surprised by the tone :) I recommend getting a strap for this uke, especially since it’s the biggest one. Makes it more stable if you’re quickly changing chords. Good value for the price: I like that even though there’s no binding, the edges of the wood panels on the top and bottom create a kind of border, and the back is curved for more resonance (which I hadn’t realized until I got it!)
Thank you for the uke! Can’t wait to keep playing.
Absolutely loving my new ukulele! It’s beautifully crafted, sounds great, and love that it’s a Canadian owned company 🇨🇦 Can’t wait to learn lots of new songs 🎼
At over 60 years old I was looking for a new hobby, lo and behold I decided to get myself a ukulele. That’s when I came across Honolua Ukuleles, I took the questionnaire and placed my order. The items were quick to ship and I received it in just a few days. I’m very satisfied with the nano concert ukulele I opted for as well as the accessories. Many hours of practice ahead of me, in fact that’s exactly what I was for. I have started just a week ago and I’m enjoying it.
This baritone ukulele is just perfect .Thank you Hung!
Taking a while to adjust from soprano uke to concert uke. Also, my new uke needs constant tuning. Frustrating!!
Contacted Honolua Ukelele’s and they suggested what might help. Delighted to say that the advice was helpful and now I stay in tune. Truly appreciate the support. I will definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for a Ukelele. Love my new Uke.
