I've used "The Maids" twice now to do a "spring cleaning" on my condo, and my experience between the first and second times, could not have been more different. I first contracted "The Maids" service in 2023. It was not my first time using a cleaning service, but I knew nothing about them. If I remember correctly, I'd seen a van with their logo, and thought that I'd one day give them a try. Well, that first time was absolutely spectacular. They arrived early, and literally cleaned my condo from top to bottom. I mean, the place was sparkling! I was so impressed with the job they'd done, I called them afterward to add a generous tip to the fee they'd charged. I was pleased, and recommended them to friends every chance I got. For the last two years, I'd used another service, simply because they were friends of one of my neighbors, and she'd asked me to support them. This year, they were booked solid for weeks, so I gladly called "The Maids" again. Well, in the two years since I'd first used them, their fee had gone up dramatically, but that wasn't an issue, as, given my previous experience, I believed it would be worth it. So. I made the appointment, and as promised they texted me the day before, to let me know the window of time in which they'd be arriving. However, on said day, I got a call from one of the cleaners telling me that they were running behind and would be a few minutes late. That actually turned out to be a half an hour later than the scheduled time, but, since I'd allotted several hours for them to complete their work, that was not an issue. When they arrived, they got to work immediately, and I got out of their way. I have a two bedroom, two bath unit, so I wrangled my two cats into the second bedroom, and told them to let me know when they were finished with the rest of the unit, and I'd move the cats to the other room. After about an hour and fifteen minutes or so, they knocked to let me know that they were ready to clean the second bedroom, so I moved the cats, and let them get to work. Strangely, only a few minutes passed before they informed me that they were done. I quickly did a superficial inspection (my mistake), since I thought I already knew what the quality of their cleaning would be. They let me know what the final charge would be, and they left. And then I started to really inspect the job they did. The place was mostly clean, but it was nowhere near the brilliant job the previous team who'd cleaned my unit two years prior. But that wasn't the real problem. I have glass shower doors on the bathtub in my second bathroom, and when I took a good look at them, there was soap and hard water residue all along the bottom of both doors. It was apparent that the young woman who cleaned those doors, couldn't be bothered to bend down to clean the bottom of the glass. The rest of the surfaces in the bathroom looked as if the bare minimum effort had been given to cleaning them. I took note of that, and went into the second bedroom. And it didn't look like they'd done much at all. They'd vacuumed. I know that because I heard it running. But there was dust everywhere. Clearly (in their haste to leave?), they'd simply quickly wiped off the most visible surfaces, and made no effort to clean any further. I have a desk with computer equipment on it and a bookshelf/ display case (among other things) in that room, and the previous crew, had cleaned everything. It was spotless. The results this time couldn't compare. You wouldn't have believed that the same company did this job. I'm not exaggerating when I say that, on my worst day, I would have done a more thorough job. And seeing the results I got, for the money I paid, I probably should have. The charitable interpretation is that they were already running behind in their schedule because of their earlier delay, so I got the short shrift. The other interpretation is that they either didn't care to make a good effort, or just aren't good at their jobs. Suffice it to say, I will not be using "The Maids" again. read more

I received several quotes for this "re-clean" of a Move Out cleaning by cleaners that my tenants hired. Its so difficult to find reliable and thorough cleaners- but the cleaners that the tenants hired (found on Yelp) left the unit as of they didnt clean at all- see "Before photos". I'm so glad to have found Dan and his crew. They were prompt, great communicators, and they got our apartment actually clean, and was mindful of the time they took to get everything cleaned and done right. I apppreciate them so much. They service properties from Alewa to Hawaii Kai only. Wish I could have Dan & his crew for my other properties, but since I can't- I'd rather not keep them a secret and share them with everyone looking for a good cleaner! read more

My MIL was having guests staying over at her house. Three Maids came and did great work cleaning a bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen. We asked them to also clean the jalousie windows and some plantation shutters. They finished the work in 2 hours. Owner even gave us a discount since he and we wanted to schedule our cleaning on a day when he wanted to fill in some "pukas" in the schedule. read more

This is a business catering to vacation rentals not locals, terrible customer service. Waste of time and money. Their response is the classic yelp excuse we reviewed our records and we did not have customer by your name and you must be talking about someone else. I am not the only one leaving these comments, look at the other one star reviews and you will see the pattern. read more

I needed to book a Move out cleaning service & I was recommended this company by a friend. First impression, the guy on the phone was okay. He was quick to respond to my questions. I was able to book a date rather quickly. I ended up moving out of my apartment sooner, so called again and he was able to change my cleaning date to accommodate me, which was nice. Second time speaking to him, he seemed a lot friendlier. I booked for 2-3 o'clock. The maids arrived maybe around 3:30pm. I was waiting around but no big deal.. They were nice and did a great job with cleaning. Very reasonable price as well. They charged a reasonable amount as well. read more

Exemplary to the perfection of cleaning! I hired the Maids for a Move Out. They were punctual, cordial, professional, and best of all cleaned to the highest of expectations! Also the price was right. I think that sums up my experience with the Maids:) Thank you! read more

Great team! Great teamwork! They did a fabulous job. I will definitely use them again.

The team at "The Maids" Honolulu was great. I would recommend their services to anyone on the Island without hesitation. The operations team called to confirm services and even worked with us last minute when a kitchen flood interrupted our first scheduled cleaning. They worked with us to find a reasonable plan and price that fit our budget. The cleaners were timely, friendly, and efficient. Our home is a rental that we just moved into, and we wanted to ensure it was clean and healthy for our family. They cleaned all surfaces as promised and left the house in tip-top condition. Mahalo to "The Maids" for helping us live healthy and clean! read more

The manager called after he read my review. He was deeply concerned that my review was so critical. He mentioned a few times in our call that I should have called to voice my displeasure. As I mentioned in the review, this was my first experience with any cleaning service so I didn't know what to expect. Hard to complain when I don't have experience from these types of businesses. He did mention that reservation didn't have any notes, but I did tell him I specifically mentioned to the operator that took the reservation it was a 'move in' cleaning and it needed a lot of detail cleaning. He offered a refund but I did mention that I saw that the women there were working really hard. I know the bathrooms were cleaned and most things were wiped down. So I compromised and just asked for 50%. He did seem sincere when he called and did apologize for the poor performance. read more

Simply the best. Service available the next business day. They do not provide service over the weekend but I believe The Maids of Honolulu deserve to have their weekends. Cleaning is already difficult for me but they work multiple homes each day. Also, their price is reasonable. I have compared other companies' pricing and cleaning companies have almost same prices, but for quality, I go with The Maids of Honolulu. Mahalo and Aloha! read more

the owner is unable to read nor understand!!! the kitchen floor was cleaned long before the crew arrived!!! you knew the condition of the rugs before you agreed to the job!!! most cleaning services do address biohazard issues without making the homeowbers feel less than human!!! this wont stop my truthful reviews!!!! read more

They came with team of 5 people. They were fast, efficient and very good at cleaning! Also they were very friendly and nice. They finished my one bed room apartment with bunch of pet hairs just bit over one hour. I was stressed about my moving but I am glad that I had their help on cleaning my apartment. Took so much stress out of my life! Thank you Rose and other maids:) read more

After over a month without their services, I was so happy to have them back today. Merlise (team lead) and her team were as thorough as ever! They made everything spic and span! They were on time and friendly as usual! So professional and Josh is great too! Thank you to all of them! read more

We are so impressed with The Maids of Honolulu! We have them to thank for a huge clean-up project for a home that is being listed on the market very soon. The Maids team of four did a fantastic job in scrubbing, cleaning, and shining all parts of the home interior until it sparkled! This was no easy task given it was a well-loved home of my parents. Their team scrubbed and cleaned the hardwood floors so beautifully! The areas where there is linoleum tile they steam-cleaned to make them as good as new. We are so impressed with what they were able to do in 3 hours! Everything is looking perfect and tidy! Everything smells so fresh too! We can now enjoy the ocean view and view of downtown from our super clean windows. Mahalo to The Maids of Honolulu! Hi read more

Josh is very responsive and quickly booked the cleaning of our family home. Very fairly priced, reliable and did an excellent job in cleaning the home. We have been using them on a recurring basis. read more

Omg, they showed up 2.5 hours late, no notice until we called. When they got here the team had no information about what we needed cleaned so they didn't want to do deep cleaning like the windows, screens and inside cabinets and appliances. We used them before and they were great, but we're so disappointed we'll never use them again. read more

I have been using The Maids for almost 2 years and continue to be pleased with the team. I always get a reminder call the day before and am given a 30 minute time window for their arrival. Sometimes I have the entire 2story house cleaned, sometimes partial. Every cleaning is targeted to what I want/need done that time. The cleaning crew is pleasant & friendly & pay attention to detail. The office staff is friendly & helpful if I need to reschedule a cleaning. I highly recommend The Maids!! read more

By far the best cleaners I've ever hired! Four ladies showed up, worked 2.5 hrs on my rental, and left it cleaner than any other cleaners by far! Simply outstanding! And honest (gave me back a handful of loose change found during their cleaning!!). Will I use them again?! You bet! Couldn't be more happier.... read more

This review is long overdue. When my in-laws moved in with us, it was very difficult to keep the house clean. With five adults, 2 cats, 2 dogs and various visitors throughout the week, the house was always dusty. We decided to have the Maids come by weekly to clean the floors, bathrooms and light dusting. And every time the house was spotless. They were fast, efficient and friendly. And when we've had family gatherings and parties, the Maids are fantastic to help get the house ready. From window washing to cleaning the oven to a deep clean, the Maids are always the first to contact. Everyone at the Maids are wonderful. From the first phone call to scheduling to the actual cleaning you can't do better than the Maids of Honolulu. read more

The Maids! Kind & understanding. I booked them to clean my daughter's home as she was bringing her first baby home. He was born premature and we wanted the house to be professionally cleaned. Baby was released a week earlier than expected and we ended up having to clean the home ourselves. Josh was kind enough to waive the cancelation fee. Not very many businesses would do that, especially during these tough economic times. But he did and because of his understanding, God will see that his business flourishes! Thanks Josh!! read more

My 91-year old father owns a home which my brother and I take turns vacuuming, dusting, washing dishes, mopping and cleaning bathrooms. However, we needed to give it a good scrubbing over so I'm giving The Maids Honolulu 5-Stars because of the following: 1. Arrived on time 2. Friendly hello and well prepared 3. The team leader, Merlihse, and two girls Clara and Di worked quietly and efficiently 4. The owner, Josh, was present to make sure the new employee understood the high level of cleaning expected and checked her work 5. THOROUGH job of cleaning kitchen in all kinds of nooks and crannies 6. GREAT job in bathrooms removing stains in tubs , limu in door tracks, scum on soap dishes and water stains 7. Able to dust high ceiling fans without getting on a ladder because she used a cool contraption 8. Removed many dust balls that I didn't have time or agility to do 9. Asked respectfully before cleaning certain items that looked fragile 10. Took out all the trash and said mahalo for the work - showing appreciation with a great attitude I would recommend this team to any of my friends, family and other Yelpers. Merhlise has worked her way up the ladder to team leader and is a good communicator, Carla has been there a while as well and works hard, and Di started recently but already in sync and works well taking direction and takes pride in her work. I will definitely call them for our condo to do the same! Mahalo Maids of Honolulu! read more

Very nice women, but I ordered a deep cleaning and felt that the work was just normal cleaning. They didn't have to clean the stove, oven, or dishwasher so I hoped that the bathroom would be super clean. Bathroom floor still had residue that could be easily taken off and the sink and bathroom had mildew stains that can be easily bleached away. Below see the dirty floor and how it should have looked. Then the mildew around the bathtub and faucet stains. read more

Discovering late Thursday that our Condo was to be inspected on Sunday at 1 PM, we only had time to call on Friday to ask The Maids of Honolulu to clean. We did not want to force them to come over on Sunday morning but they gladly did, and made our 3 bedroom condo spotless in 3.5 hours. Polite, punctual and so effective. I'd recommend this service to anyone! We'll call them again! read more

The Maids have helped me regain my sanity. Three children, 12 hour work shifts, & maintaining a clean home is a tough act for my husband and I to balance. Thanks to The Maids; I have more quality time to spend with my family & less to stress over. A cleaning service is quite a luxury. I'm a little embarrassed to say "the maids maintain my home" as family and friends give me looks of $$. But I'd take a clean home over any full day at the spa. Fairly equivalent in price but provides me a better sense of relaxation. I've tried many different cleaning services in the past but I have finally opted for a monthly service with The Maids. It's been 8months of cleaning services and I have to say they truly are the best. Tip: remember that each home is different and each person/family has different expectations. If you are meticulous about your personal space make sure to let them know because they are not mind readers. Also, skip the spa day gifts and ask for a cleaning service with The Maids instead. read more

I made an appointment for a move out cleaning for last week over the phone. Dispatcher Josh was professional & courteous. He confirmed the appointment several days ahead. The maids arrived on time & were faced with a lot of cleaning, high vaulted windows & blinds. I hired them the last time I moved & they did a very thorough job. I received my entire deposit back from my landlord. They have a good reputation for a reason. The rates are reasonable & I'm so thankful for their good work. read more

I booked The Maids for a move out cleaning. There was a problem with the sevice at first but I was promptly contacted by Josh who was very pleasant and quick to offer a solution. He sent over a second team who was very thorough with their cleaning. Josh even came over himself which shows he really cares about his company and his work. Despite the hiccup at the beginning, I am very satisfied with their work. I would highly recommend giving them a call for any cleaning services. read more

We have been using The Maids prior to the pandemic and they always do a great job. Since the pandemic started, I have been working from home. Me working from home equals the house being more dirty.

Thank you guys! Highly recommended! read more
