Right backside of car

Got the Ultra package, but my car still came out dirty -especially the back, even after the back side pre-wash and the hand wipe-down. You'd expect the staff to catch something that obvious during the final wipe down. Kind of defeats the purpose when you have to come home and clean the missed spots yourself.

The wash tunnel of darkness

I'd like to give them five stars because I've been here many times in the past but it's kinda hard for this time since I never got the wash cos their machine broke down right before I was supposed to start. I was gonna get a wash for my daughter's car before returning it to her so drive from Kailua to the Auto Spa and paid for The Works with a tire scrub as well. I was the only car there so paid for the wash and entered the unit and everything seemed fine. Other cars started lining up behind me so I figured great timing. I sat for a couple of minutes but the machine never started up. I figured there was a problem when the attendant walked into the washing area and started checking the tracks. After another couple of minutes he called another worker and they both checked it out. Then he came back and apologized for the breakdown. He offered a refund or I could get a regular hand wash but since I wanted the hot wax treatment I decided to just get the refund. I took this as the universe's way of telling me to get off my butt and wash her car myself; which I did after driving home (no wax tho) lol. Other than the unit being broken, they were very courteous and fast as possible in issuing the refund by voiding my ticket. I will be back again and hopefully it'll be working.

Welcome to a spa for your cah

Looking for a quick wash on the windward side? This is the place to go. The attendant takes a brush around the car before it goes into the drive thru wash. Ultra package is about $18. For the price, its decent.

This is what the car looked like after Windward's "interior wash." The car wasn't filthy when I brought it in; they just played me.

I thought my experience here was a prank, like I ended up on Punked or a hidden camera show. But the joke was really on me. I borrowed a car and wanted to return in clean. So I went to Winward Auto Spa I paid for an exterior wash and an interior vacuum/wipe down. When I drove into WInward the car wasn't trashed, it had a little sand near the front console and dirty shoe prints on the rear passenger floor. After paying about $30 and wasting 40 minutes, I received the car in a very similar condition. The sand and the footprints still there. The photo is from after they "cleaned" the interior. They also couldn't be bothered to vacuum behind the car seat (which I had unhooked so it was easy to move). This place is ridiculous.

Water dispenser with no cups and tv off.

Don't get your safety check done here or service your car. Waiting room is disgusting and drab. Go to windward honda if you have a Honda otherwise steer clear. Dinged me on safety check for BS stuff that other places wouldn't think twice of. They are looking for work to charge you on plain and simple.

Front entrance to the car wash
Elizabeth M.

It was looong past time for me to get my car washed and vacuumed, but I just haven't had the time to do it by hand. Windward Auto Spa to the rescue! I figured if I went during a weekday, it wouldn't be too busy. Luckily, there were only a couple cars ahead of me, so I made it to the front entrance in just a few minutes. I selected the express wash and vacuum package, which seemed like a good deal at under $30 for all of it. My car went through the wash without any issues. (I did notice there was still some bird poop on the windshield after going through.) Upon exiting, I followed the sign for the vacuum package. I pulled into the spot where they motioned for me to go and the team started drying the car right away. By the end, there were no other cars in the area, so all six employees were hard at work drying, dusting, and vacuuming. When the car was done, I was pretty impressed. The bird poop and large spots were gone from the windshield, although the bottom edges of the windshield where the wipers don't clean had water spots. I was pretty happy with the inside of the car, too. They definitely got all the sand and dust off the floor mats. In all, it was a good deal for me to save the time and energy it would take to do all this myself. I was happy with the service and would return for a wash in the future.

Me wiping my car again right after I spent $30 for them to clean it

After a windy day at work on my way home I decided to go get my car cleaned and I went here! I paid for the works and vacuum service so it came out $30+ when I got there they were working on a Jetta as I was going through the car wash after the car wash they were still working on the other car and I was excited knowing that they will spend this much time and dedication on my car ... when that car was done it was my turn by this time I was waiting 15 minutes (after my car was washed) only to see my car quickly wiped and vacuumed! Within 10 minutes my vehicle was done and I was so disappointed walking in you can push my front seat front and see that they didn't vacuum hood I mean $30 and for what to do it myself and I had to go home and still wipe my car! So yeah I'll make the trip to McKinley Car Wash or dedicate my weekend to doing it myself! Definitely do not recommend

See all

How much does a smog check cost?

Is there a doggy spa here?

Unfortunately, the Doggy Spa was removed a few years ago. It was replaced with a retail store that stocks automotive detailing products.

Does the self wash close the same time as the drive thru car wash?

I asked about that over a year ago and was told when main carwash is closed entrance and exits are closed and locked. So If it's still the same now you won't have access to self wash stall. Hope this helps.

Jay and his team are truly passionate about delivering premier vehicle body protection. Whether…read moreit's a simple wash or full ceramic protection, they consistently provide the best value and the best price. As a Marine veteran, Jay proudly offers military discounts to active‑duty service members and veterans, which speaks volumes about his character and commitment. A year ago, I followed Jay's recommendation for a 6-12 month service. At that time, he mentioned that my three‑year‑old ceramic coat would likely need to be redone in about a year--and he was absolutely right. Fast forward to today: Jay worked my LS 430 in for an XKOTE and ceramic treatment, and the results are nothing short of stunning. My 22‑year‑old car with over 205k miles looks like it just rolled out of a showroom. The shine, the depth, the finish--everything is flawless. Well done, Jay and team. Your craftsmanship and integrity keep me coming back!

I can't say enough great things about Jay and his crew! They've brought my nightmare of a car back…read moreto life. Let me start off from the beginning, we got over van ceramic coated back in November of last year at a DIFFERENT company. It was a poor coating and window tint job. Had to take our car back 3x, each time they didn't even fix the problem. I honestly believe they just held it for the day and pretended to do something. I dealt with a poorly coated car, it was honestly embarrassing to drive my brand new van around. We finally got sick of it and looked into doing another coating. I am so glad I found Eco Wash. Jay and his crew took the time to listen to our headaches and empathize. We booked on the spot after getting our quote. They have an awesome reminder system also, which is perfect for a busy mom of 4. And one of the best parts, they provide a free car loaner while your car is being detailed. That was the cherry on top of the deal honestly. We picked up our car a day later and it was like night and day. All those "burn" marks and buff marks from the previous company was gone. Replaced by a beautiful shiny exterior. They went above and beyond to bring my baby back to its beauty. I'll be back in a few weeks to do the 2 week car wash and learn how to properly take care of the ceramic coating. I also want to add, their prices are really good for the quality of their work and what it comes with. I paid the same amount at the previous lousy detailing shop. I'm just blown away! Thank you again Eco Wash Hawaii

I cannot say enough incredible things about Premier Island Auto Detail and Greg…read more I first met Greg during a very special (and stressful) time in my life--just one week before giving birth. I needed my car to be immaculately clean, and what he delivered completely exceeded every expectation. When I picked up my car, I was honestly in awe. It looked and felt brand new. What truly stood out, though, wasn't just the quality of his work--it was him. My family was with me, and Greg treated all of us with such genuine kindness, respect, and aloha. That moment has stayed with me ever since. He is truly one of those rare, good-hearted people you don't forget. Fast forward to recently--I had what I thought was a total nightmare situation. After a fishing day with my family, squid juice spilled into my car and soaked into the carpet. The smell was awful. No matter what I tried, it wouldn't go away, and I genuinely thought my car was permanently ruined. Of course, I reached out to Greg--and once again, he worked his magic. Not only did he completely remove the odor, but my car now smells (and feels) brand new again. I honestly don't know how he does it, but his attention to detail, work ethic, and level of care are unmatched. Greg is the only person I trust with my car. I recommend Premier Island Auto Detail to everyone--my friends, my clients, my family--because when you find someone this genuine and this talented, you don't keep it to yourself. Thank you infinitely, Greg. Your work and your spirit truly make a difference.

NEWEST UPDATE: Aloha folks -- i've updated my review as…read morethere has been some progress. Greg reached out to me explaining that based on the video I sent, it appeared that the ceramic coating was working, but not how it should be. He asked if I could bring the vehicle in so that his team could wash it, and verify this in person. We agreed that I would drop my vehicle off on Friday. This will allow for a pickup on Saturday. Upon drop off, his guys, Zane and Kato accepted the vehicle and tested the ceramic. Right away, Zane said that it wasn't reacting correctly. I left my keys with them and was told that the vehicle would be ready for pickup the following day and I would be notified by call or text. Saturday -- Premiere is open until 6pm. Once 5pm came around I was admittedly starting to get a little bit nervous seeing as how I needed my car for work on Monday, and I knew they were closed on Sunday. I attempted to call and received no response. Living closeby, I just decided to head over. I got there about 540pm. Greg was there detailing the interior of a car. He had plenty of vehicles to take care of. He was friendly and apologized for the lack of communication, citing that he was swamped with the influx of vehicles. He explained that my car was "done" but that he, himself, had taken issue with it. When we approached my car, it was clear that work had been done. But upon closer inspection, there were water spots on my glass and streak marks on areas, exacerbated by the light from his cell phone flashlight. He was able to quickly wipe some of them off. He again apologized and said that he didn't like the work that was done and asked if he could keep my vehicle until Tuesday so that it could be completely redone. This I respect. Alot. For a boss to take ownership of their work and the work of their employees goes a long way. I left it -- picked it up on Tuesday. The car looks fantastic. Here's to waiting it out and see if the ceramic holds this time around. Very glad that I chose the boys at Premiere. Will update in a week :) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aloha all! Second time using the boys at Premiere Island Auto Detail. They did an amazing job on my camaro, that I felt it only right to use them for our SUV. My last interactions with Greg (the owner) and his team were nothing short of amazing. He is a personably guy. I reached out to them asking for an interior and exterior detail on my 2023 Mazda CX50. After some back and forth on the services, I ended up changing my service to a "basic" ceramic coating (which includes an exterior detail to prep it) and full interior detail. The price was amazing. Greg takes care of his customers. I wont mention it here as pricing can always change. As a reminder to anyone reading this -- its always a nice gesture to tip them, though, not required. Greg was able to take my car pretty quickly. I made the appointment for a drop off on Saturday. For those of you that don't know, ceramic coatings require a curing time, and therefore, I needed to leave my vehicle overnight. The garage is secure and under surveillance. It is easily accessible in the downtown area. I came back the next morning to pickup my car. It looked stellar! The lighting really makes the cars pop too. The exterior looked brand new (minus water spots that apparently weren't able to be removed from the 3m decals). The interior also looked great. I had some minor pet fur still embedded, but nothing to harp about. I noticed that the trunk space wasn't addressed though. No biggie. Now the reason for my decrease in rating: I want to start off by reiterating that Greg and his team are excellent dudes to work with. They are friendly, fast, and do good work. My Mazda, this time around, just isn't what I expected from them. I haven't been able to get back for the car wash because the weather has been awful -- so its been a little bit of time since the coating. There are some spots where the ceramic is noticeable. Particularly under the side mirrors, you can see the coating is still there and streaked on. The new formula that they used on this "basic" coating, definitely shows a difference. Maybe this coating only included one pass over, i'm not sure, but the beading effect just isn't there. Dirt and grime still clings to the car and it doesn't wash off with water. The roof doesnt appear to have been coated, but I could be wrong. The wheels were not coated. I am unsure if the glass was coated. The trim appears to have been coated but not wiped off properly. Anyway, do I recommend them? Absolutely. I still think they do good work at a great price. However, I would strongly encourage you to ask about their options for ceramic coating and not get a lesser package. Mahalo Premiere
