How it works

  1. Reserve your time

    Pick an appointment that fits your schedule. Walk ups are available, but it’s best to call ahead.

  2. Leave us the keys, we take care of the rest

    We’re beneath Park Lane, on the Diamond Head side of the structure. Pull up, hand us the keys, and you’re done.

  3. Go shop.

    We’ll text you 10 minutes before your car is ready, and again when it’s ready for pick up.

Two ways in

Reserve your time, or walk up.

Either way, we’ve got you! Reserving just means your time is locked in.

Your time, locked in

Reserve

You pick the time, we’re expecting you, and your vehicle goes straight in. Easy!


  • Your time is held for you
  • No waiting around for an opening
  • Best for weekends and holidays
  • Add the full interior right when you book

If you’re already here

Walk Up

Come on by whenever we have an opening! Saturdays and holiday weekends do fill up fast.


  • No appointment needed
  • Depends on space that day
  • Give us a call and we’ll let you know
  • Weekday mornings are your best bet

We’d much rather tell you we’re full than have you drive all the way over for nothing!

Our story

Experience our aloha for car care.

In Hawaiʻi, the ʻōhiʻa lehua is the first plant to rise from the ashes of a new lava flow. That is the spirit behind Lehua Automotive.

Built with resilience, grown with purpose, rooted in community. We’re a full-service automotive reconditioning business, and restoring vehicles to their best is what we do — through quality service, education, and maintenance of your vehicle.

Just like the lehua, we bloom where others couldn’t.

Before you come

Questions people actually ask

Do I need an appointment?

Nope! Walk ups are welcome whenever we have room. Reserving just means your time is held and your vehicle goes straight in.

How long will it take?

A standard detail takes 30–45 minutes. Adding the full interior brings it to about two hours.

Can I wait with my car?

You’re more than welcome to! Most folks hand off the keys and go shop though — that’s the whole idea.

My car is really bad right now. Beach sand, dog hair, the works.

Bring it on! Sand, dog hair, a whole beach season — we’ve seen it all and none of it fazes us. Your vehicle deserves some TLC, and there’s zero judgment here.

What happens with my keys?

[Confirm the handoff and where keys are held while we work.]

Do you do ceramic coating, tint, or paint repair at the mall?

At Ala Moana we’re focused on detailing. For coating, tint and paint work, [confirm whether these route to mobile service or a separate booking].

How do I pay?

[Confirm accepted payment methods and whether payment is taken when you book or when you pick up.]

Do you take lifted trucks, vans, or oversized vehicles?

[Confirm the clearance limit in the structure and any vehicle sizes that need to book mobile service instead.]
