    Went in for my first tattoo with one of their visiting tattoo artist, Abel, and it was incredible. He drafted up a design that was authentic to the Hawaiian fish hook and explained his design, he took great care of me knowing it was my first tattoo and I was scared out of my my mind. Sara at the front desk is very warm and welcoming, and she answered all questions without judgement. Amazing experience. Worth the money.

    My husband got an amazing tattoo done by Eric and I had mine done by Tommy. Both of us are beyond happy with the end results. So many talented artists, super clean shop. We will be back!

    While on vacation, my daughter and I decided to go for it and get matching tattoos. I had researched different places and found this one with so many excellent reviews. We called and got an appointment the same day ! We sent a picture of what we wanted and they had it ready when we got there. The tattoo artist was patient and super nice and about 30 minutes later we were done and on our way to dinner. It's super clean, all the staff was kind and welcoming. I can't wait to go back.

    I was very excited to get a tattoo of my daughter's handwriting done here. We asked my daughter to write her name and used her handwriting as a template for my tattoo. The process itself took less than 30 minutes, since the name itself is only 6 letters long and fairly simple. Here we are a week later and the ink on my tattoo looks very sparse. I took care of it following my artist's recommendation (use aquaphor after removing the cover they provide two days later, no sun, no water, no lotion, nothing!). I was very disappointed with the outcome, given that the tattoo was very simple and it cost me $220 for it, I wish the execution and the outcome of how the ink looks like was a little better.

    Darnell gave me the most beautiful souvenir. She cares a lot about the quality of her work and ensuring that she captures what the client wants. I made an appointment two weeks before my vacation and easily got the time/artist I wanted.

    My friend and I both got matching tattoos while we were staying in Hawaii. We loved the environment in the shop and the people there are so friendly. We love how are tattoos came out! Sebastian did a wonderful job!

    I could not be happier with my new piece. Everyone was wonderful, the atmosphere was friendly, and the shop well cared for. Claudio was kind and professional in creating a beautiful piece of art. Thank you!

    Eric Tyler and Bob Vanderberg did our new tattoos when we visited last month. The new shop had only been open about a week, and we didn't even know it existed! Thanks to my husband getting sick of me shopping he had a seat on a planter and saw the red tattoo sign in the window! We hightailed it up and made appoitments right away! Sarah at the front desk was Absolutley awesome! So friendly and helpful! Bob knocked my husbands hula girl out of the park! And Eric drew up the most amazing little humpback for me! Both guys are amazing artists and were so fun to visit with!! We will 100% be back!! Thanks guys! Perfect end to our kid free vacation!

    From the moment you walk in, the shop feels welcoming and comfortable. It's a family-run business,…read morewhich really shows in the atmosphere and how they treat people. My understanding is that Adam has been tattooing for 30+ years. His wife runs the front desk, and his daughter, Siobhan Hammon, is also one of the artists. I worked with Siobhan on a Hawaiian islands tattoo on my bicep. She was polite, professional, and ready to get to work. They were also great about working with my schedule. I was able to put a deposit down the day before, and everything was smooth and straightforward. They provided very detailed aftercare instructions and even shared some helpful information I didn't know about numbing options and the healing process. I followed the instructions exactly, and the tattoo healed quickly. I also want to give a special shoutout to Adam. Whether he's the sole owner or part of the ownership team, I don't want to misspeak, but his presence alone made the visit feel worth it. He clearly cares about his clients and represents the industry in a really positive way. Thank you for a great experience and for an awesome birthday gift from my wife. Until next time. MAHALO!!!

    I've had 11 tattoos done, all in the Hawaiian Islands (first one on Oahu) with the remaining 10 all…read moredone on Maui, and the last six done at Sweet Trade Tattoo, where Adam (owner/master tattoo artist, renowned painter and author), with Siobhan, his ultra-talented daughter, adding her unique style to the mix, I would highly recommend either of these two artists add their work to my "body" of art...! I've included the most recent work, Nov 7, 2025 and my most cherished, the memory of my best friend of 17 years, who Adam memorialized, Titan, to utter perfection!!! A Perfect 10 When on Maui, get an appointment early, or risk missing out on the best tattooing on the island!!! Mahalo The late T and me

    Aloha people of Earth. My name is Callahan Welsh, nothing special about me…read more I'm an original Haole from Maui, graduated Maui High School 2001....so I'm not that smart. To all the people that take the time to read compliments or complaints.....this is a complIMENT! This place has professional artist that like to leave a lifetime imprint of their years of skill trading artistry on people. They have been welcoming to all people of life from Canada to North Korea, as they do not discriminate as Hawaiian culture is very welcoming and has had a HUGE influence across the world, especially in the world of tattoos with Hawaiian love and aloha. Although I am extremely high from some MauiWaui (thanks to Maui Grown Therapies cannabis dispensary located in Lahaina), I am making a credible Yelp review of this tattoo parlor to be recommended. Gratitude for taking the time to read this, as I typed it while on was high on the toilet....(and I think I have sat on this toilet in their bathroom for about 4 mins and 20 seconds now.) Well, I think that's all....wait, no, there is more. Their clothing is cool.

    I had been planning on getting a tattoo in Maui for my first time there. I didn't know when or…read morewhere. I did some research days before and finally made it happen to walk in and make an appointment. Picture it: Saturday of Spring break, the last day of our vacation, Lahaina, and I walked in right when they opened. They made a push to get us in for the absolute last spot to get both my boyfriend and I tattooed. Not to mention it would be his first and my 15th. I had an exact reference from Eric's Instagram, and my bf had a few from the internet. We walked in right on time and Dani was just finishing up my bfs design while I signed the paperwork. I cannot express how grateful I was to have her taking care of him. He's very analytical and dissects everything because of how his brain works. She was so unbelievably patient and worded everything so he understood what he was getting. Eric had my design pretty much done because he had done it before. Dani sat my man down and got to work. I was very relaxed knowing she was able to keep him busy and make easy conversation with him. The first tattoo experience can change if someone ever gets another, so she knocked it out of the park. Eric got to mine after a quick dinner and double-checking my placement. Inner upper arm was probably the hardest place to get a tattoo considering I was sunburned on the entire front of my body... wear your damn sunscreen!!! Anyways, Eric was super artistic in how he was tattooing me even so that Amanda, the super adorable receptionist was complimenting it. He made great conversation with me and made sure to check in on how I was feeling and doing, plus letting me get up to stretch with my body cramping up from laying down for so long. It has the be the best tattoo experience I've ever had, and I have now 15! I don't believe anyone could've gotten close to the realism he achieved with my tattoo. It's my favorite and most timeless piece that I will treasure and show off forever. Their rates were reasonable and nothing outrageous (and that's coming from a Californian). Eric, Dani, and Amanda are incredible people who are doing what they love where they love. I will be going back for another tattoo next time we go to Hawaii, even if it means island hopping. (Pictures of reference and stencil included) Mahalo guys!

We got matching tattoos at Neptunes Den and we could not be more thrilled! Upon entering my first impression was how clean the shop was. The girl at the reception desk was very attentive and made us feel welcome and excited that we were there. Eric gave us both our tattoos and couldn't have been more friendly and professional! He made our experience and designed our tattoos better than what we had imagined. If you are on the island and wanting a tattoo I would highly recommend this place. We made a reservation for our last day of the trip so we could still enjoy the ocean up until the tattoo!! 12/10!!!
