Great surf school! Had a blast - Fantastic Surf school. We loved our lesson with Vance! My girlfriend and I did a 2 person lesson and felt totally taken care of the entire time. Got tons of waves, focused on the fundamentals, and most importantly had fun! Can’t recommend this Surf school enough

Incredible lessons with Kaa’Aine! - We booked 1:1 surf lessons for our 12 year old daughter at the last minute, as she really wanted to learn and give it a try! Kaa’aine (I think that’s the spelling!) was an incredible instructor, he was SO good with her, lots of encouragement, high fives, laughing and celebrating with her when she caught the waves! We also got the raw footage video package and SO glad we did, our daughter was smiling ear to ear throughout and we love that we can see that! 100% recommend booking!!!

Surfing at waikiki beach - At 59 years old, surfing was on my bucket list. The staff at Kahu surf school were amazing! Special shout out to Cody, my instructor! He made this an experience of a lifetime. Thanks, Cody, for making this dream come true!!

So much fun! - So much fun! Was a bit nervous to begin with, but quickly gained confidence and felt myself progressing as the lesson went on (wiping out was almost as fun as riding the waves anyway). Glad I booked the two-hour lesson as it gave me time to attempt plenty of waves with enough "rest" in between (surfing is a real workout). Thank you, Kaine (sorry if wrong spelling)!

Claimed I wasn't on the schedule, said they'd refund my money, did not - Avoid this company I booked a surf lesson with Kahu Surf School for my daughter. The booking was made on 10/26/2023 and paid for at the time. The lesson was scheduled for 6/27/2024. When we arrived for the lesson we were told we were not on the schedule, despite having the a receipt with confirmation number. After the person at the desk called the owner, they said they had changed their reservation system and forgotten to copy us over. They offered little help and just said they would refund our money. On 7/11/2024, they had not issued a refund so I sent an email. They did not respond. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau on 7/16/2024. On 8/15/2024 the BBB informed me that Kahu Surf School had not responded so they were closing the complaint as a "no response" and the complaint would be visible for three years. I contacted my credit card company and explained the situation, and despite the transaction being so old, they issued a chargeback. My concern is that Kahu Surf School took my money, held it for 8 months, did not deliver the service, and then clearly had no intention of returning my money. Certainly taking someone's money, canceling your service, and refusing to return the money, is illegal behavior. This company should be investigated; are they ripping off other tourists as well?
