Ilona Coffey is the best agent you could possibly find. She knows the market, has built up a network of contractors by respecting them and keeping her word, and will absolutely work efficiently and diligently until your home is sold at the best possible price.
Ilona is not just an excellent real estate agent, she is also a kind and respected person. We feel very lucky to have chanced upon her as our agent. She made this deal happen in record time and with grace and ease. We were on a tight timeline to close on this property. She did it.!!
From the moment we met Ilona (the last day of our vacation last June 2025) to the final closing date of our new townhouse in Kauai (January 2026) she was so helpful, friendly and absolutely an expert on Kauai! She was able to guide us every step of the way and kept us updated on Kauai properties as we sold our Maui condo. She even had a wonderful reference for a realtor on Maui - who we used and was amazing!! Ilona went out of her way to get us the place we wanted and at a price we loved. She had all the contacts for rental management company, furniture, decor, inspections, and anything else we have needed. We would absolutely use her again and plan to stay in touch as we start enjoying our time in Kauai every year.
We have engaged Ilona for all of our buying and selling needs on island. Aside from the fact that she is the epitome of Aloha, her knowledge of the market is unmatched!
Ilona truly cares about her clients. She routinely performs above and beyond the call of duty to smooth the way for an amicable home sale, successfully mediates potential obstacles, helps identify resources for required home repairs, and ensures a successful home closing. Ilona is simply the best.
Being Canadians living in Europe, we knew we needed the help of a skilful and trustworthy realtor who could navigate us through some murky waters we had gotten into with our condo. Not only did Ilona point us into the best direction with Coldwell Bankers to take over management of our rental condo - to bring clarity and transparency to our strong booking data for prospective buyers to access - due to this guidance we were able to secure a buyer and have everything handled smoothly. A big task considering the extra hoops to step thru being overseas. Ilona kept us updated along the journey and was always available to explain or pop on a call when needed. We are very grateful for her warmth, expertise and commitment to our goal of selling this year. We highly recommend Ilona for your upcoming house sale.
This is the fourth time I have had realty transactions with Ilona Coffey. At our very first meeting in 2020 I found Ilona knowledgable, and professional but perhaps more important than anything I felt like she was"on my side.". She was always available to assist me in any way possible. I live on the mainland and I trust her to keep me updated and provide professional input into my decision making. She has helped with details that I was unable to do from my location or lack of computer skills. My only complaint about Ilona is that every time we have been together to close on deals-she never lets me pay for lunch. Lol. She is simply the best agent I have ever worked with.
Ilona knew everything I expected of her. She texted and emailed me immediately about every little detail. So all our fears were dealt with and explained in a coherent and rational manner - IMMEDIATELY. Professional? You betcha! She dressed and sounded the part ALL THE TIME. One thing I was always amazed at: she'd come for every showing appointment with just the nicest smile on her face. Nothing about this transaction had a negative quality! You won't be sorry if and when you hire Ilona!
It has been such a pleasure to work with Ilona! She was so professional and honest from start to finish.Ilona had such a great understanding of all Kauai properties. Her communication throughout the whole process was over the top. I highly recommend Ilona to anybody looking for their dream property in Kauai. I cannot wait to use her again on my next purchase.
When we decided to list our condo, we didn't hesitate to team up with Ilona. She sold it to us 4 yrs prior, so we knew her experience and how easy she is to work with. Even though the process went longer than expected, we really appreciate how Ilona was more than willing to conduct multiple open houses. By the time a serious offer came by, she saw to it the buyer was ready to close within 30 days. Ilona stepped up when and where she could to ensure the process went smoothly. Experience in the real estate business in Hawaii is essential whether you're buying or selling. Ilona has that experience and energy to make it happen.
Ilona Coffey is a gracious knowledgeable agent who provided tremendously helpful advice and guidance at every stage of the purchasing process. She is a gifted communicator who is also caring and kind. I enthusiastically recommend her without reservation.
I have worked with Ilona in buying and selling three Kauai condos. You can't find a better realtor. Professional, thorough, responds quickly... she takes care of every little detail so you don't have to worry about any of them.
