I've been wanting to get a poly piece for a while and a friend of mine referred me to Neil. Neil went above and beyond on my piece! I had an idea of what I wanted, but I couldn't have imagined how amazing it would turn out! I met with him a couple times to tell him my ideas and things I wanted to tweak about the designs he came up with. I really appreciated his patience with me and his determination to make sure the ideas I had in my head were exactly what he'd design. Haven't seen a lot of artists do poly/mandala tattoos, and I was amazed with the poly/mandala pieces that he posted on his IG page. Highly recommend Neil and his shop and will probably come back sometime for another piece! Read Less

I walked in, wanting a small anklet tattoo on Friday afternoon.. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted so I gave Shanti a couple of examples and one that tied in with another tattoo of mine, he was super awesome about what he could do and what would work etc. and basically told me, he could do it right now, but if I'm planning on going back to the beach - which I was - he'd recommend getting it done on my last day.. So I suggested Sunday evening, because Monday was my chill out, last day. I've just finished a little under 2 hours ago and I honestly couldn't be happier! The work that shanti did for me and the amount of effort and dedication that went into my tiny tattoo was simply incredible. I'm beyond happy with my choice of going to Suite Dreamz Tattoo, all the reviews are correct In saying their work is amazing. I will probably even make another trip out to Hawaii to see these guys again.. Thank you so much Shanti!!! Read Less

Great tattoo shop! I would highly recommend Suite Dreamz to anyone looking for your next tattoo, or even your first. The shop was very clean, had a great atmosphere and amazing artists. The artists here ensure that you leave with a tattoo you're satisfied with. Staff were laid back, friendly and helpful. I made an appointment closer to the end of my visit and there was a deposit, but it was reasonable and went towards the overall cost of my tattoo. This shop does accept walk-ins too if you're more on the spontaneous side. The prices here are reasonable, especially for Waikiki. They base their price on size and intricacy. Overall, I had a great experience with Suite Dreamz and I am very satisfied with my newest addition. Read Less

This tattoo shop is the best on island. Neil and Jack are both excellent and Versatile talented artists. As pictured Neil did my pray hands and god is great than the highs and lows tattoo on my arm while Jack did the ear lines and Polynesian behind my ear. Neil is great with realism and black and grey as well as Polynesian and he also does color. Jack specializes in Polynesian. Neil and Jack can do most anything. They both can free hand Polynesian tattoos and any tattoo you give him can for sure accommodate. The shop is clean and the staff is friendly. You won't regret getting tattooed by either. Don't look any future then getting tattooed by Neil or Jack. There the best tattoo artist on the island. And the prices are very fair too. You get what you pay for. Shop minimum is $80. I don't regret any of my tattoos by them. They will work with you to give you an amazing tattoo and experience. Look no further then suite dreamz. Mahalo Neil and jack for the amazing tattoos. I will continue to get tattooed by you guys. Again call and it check the shop out for yourself. You'll be very happy and in love with any tattoo you get by them.

My boyfriend spontaneously wanted to get a tattoo while in Waikiki and found this place. We did not make an appointment, we just walked in and they had some time for him. He didnt want any crazy tribal piece that would take hours, so that's probably why. The artist who tatted him was Mike (can't find him on social media to tag him on anything lol). He's from New Zealand and gave us some background on himself and his culture which was exciting for me because I've always wanted to visit there. Anyway, my boyfriend got a simple 19 over one knee and 91 on the other..about 5? Inches could be more or less. It's just an outline of it and he charged 157? I think. Which is not bad at all. For an outline with nothing filled in or shaded, other places were charging starting at $200. Turned out flawless and exactly how he wanted. Place is really small and hardly any room for waiting but worth it for the price and work they do. Read Less

Neil is nothing short of amazing - check his work on instagram for yourself. He did a stunning lotus flower cover up of the kanji on my neck. Both symbolize growth for me - I was just looking for something more feminine and fitting for this chapter of my path.
You get what you paid for. And, I think it is worth mentioning - I tried to SUPER tip him (because the position he had to maintain for 3+ hours to pull this must have been excruciating for him). He handed me back SIXTY DOLLARS. That’s a good, trustworthy person right there. Full of aloha.

Out of all the tattoo shops I've been to, Suite Dreamz Tattoo really makes you feel welcomed. You can definitely tell that the artist there are passionate about what they do and how you can tell is by the work that they create. They show what true ALOHA feels. If you are looking for a place to get a tattoo, Suite Dreamz Tattoo is a place I would recommend. I was on the search to find an artist and couldn't find the right person. On my search, I looked to Yelp and looked for a tattoo shop in waikiki. Suite Dreamz Tattoo was the first that came up. I walked over and was greeted by the apprentice. He was very kind and helpful. I shared with him my ideas. He said the guy I should talk to is Neil. When I got the chance to meet Neil, he made me feel a lot more comfortable. We talked about the tattoo idea which is a Hawaiian inspired dream catcher tattoo. I had a drawing my friend drew for me and showed him. He told me his ideas and I was excited. We set up an appointment. The day came and I was nervous, but Neil made me feel right at home. I got the tattoo done on my left shoulder. It did take more than one session but after each session, I fell in love with my tattoo more and more. Once the tattoo was done, I couldn't believe how it turned out. I was shocked. It came out exactly the way I wanted it be. With the love that not only Neil showed, but also Jack and there apprentice. These guys show there passion through there artwork and I am glad that I can showcase Neil's work where ever I go. I am forever grateful for the tattoo that Neil made for me. Mahalo Nui Loa for everything. I will definitely be coming back to Suite Dreamz Tattoo for another tattoo. Read Less

My wife and I came here at the end of our honeymoon to get tattoos to commemorate the occasion. We came in a week before our session to schedule a time and it was pretty easy and straightforward booking a session. Neil tattooed a tribal piece on my R shoulder and Jack did a small piece on my wife's upper right back. This was my second tattoo and I was looking for a Polynesian tribal piece, Neil was very thorough in mapping out his artwork on my arm before tattooing. I could tell that he was very intensely focused on imagining the design in his head. Neil was a good conversationalist and it helped to pass the 4 hour tattoo session. Knowing that I'm Filipino, he even incorporated Filipino tribal designs on my arm to keep thing authentic. At the end of our session he went through and explained each pattern's rich meaning. It's been a couple of month's but I still stare amazed at the artwork on my arm everyday. My wife wanted a side portrait of Mother Mary holding baby Jesus and Jack was the artist who did her piece. She pulled up a general idea of what she wanted online and Jack took some time aside to draw his imagined piece out on paper. He was able to incorporate Polynesian designs in the abstract piece which is exactly what my wife was looking for. This was her first tattoo and Jack was extremely focused on executing the fine details of it. My wife and I were amazed at the level of detail he got on such a small tattoo. Both men were professional, courteous, and helped us feel at ease. There's no doubt that the next time I'm in Honolulu, I'll be looking for Neil to expand on the original piece. Read Less

Neil did a tattoo for my best friend and I do it took a huge chunk of the day but we were never bored. There are food options all around and the conversation was nice. My friend and I felt very comfortable. They even brought us snacks! (I didn't like them but it's the thought lol). The music was great and the experience even greater. We will be going to Suite Dreamz for all of our wakiki tattoo needs. I highly recommend Neil. He is very talented and I would bet that he can achieve anything you're dreaming up. It's your body, don't settle for less than amazing and amazing lies in Wakiki, HI!!! Read Less

Like many others that have done reviews for Suite Dreamz, I also came to Hawaii for a vacation. While I was here, I decided to get my very first tattoo, and sought out the most reputable tattoo parlor on Oahu. Suite Dreams came highly recommended and Yelp reviews confirmed. Walked in one night and booked the appointment for 7/21/17 with Jack. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. Jack is an amazing artist and I admire his talent. He came up with a design for my calf which was beautiful, and then I decided to make a few changes at the last minute. What he came up with was nothing short of a beautiful piece of art on my calf-which is what I think a tattoo should always be. I couldn't be more pleased!! These guys are legit-if you're serious about getting done something, and getting it done correctly the first time, absolutely come see Jack at Suite Dreamz. I know the next time I'm back on Oahu, I'll be back to get more work done here. Read Less

This was my second time coming to get tattooed by Neil! He was able to accommodate and sketch out my tattoo with a two day notice. I live in NYC and there's a ton of great artists here, but I still chose to get tattooed by Neil because he was the first artist to ever say no to an idea based on the fact that it would decrease the longevity of my tattoo.

A week over due... I have NEVER felt so comfortable at a Tattoo studio than at Suite Dreamz! I walked in and was acknowledged by the apprentice and the Owner Neal who was tatting another customer. I started talking with the apprentice and Neal came and introduced himself and looked at what and where I wanted my cover up to be. He had another apprentice take a picture on his Ipad of what would be covered up and made sure it was the angle and distance away from the spot so he could do a good sketch. There is a $40 deposit and $80 store minimum (pretty standard minimum, Great deal especially in waikiki) I scheduled my appointment and walked in day of and felt comfortable. He showed me the sketch, asked if i liked it but also told me it would be done free hand once he draws the main part of the outline. And gave me a price range which was less than what I was anticipating It's a small shop which I like because it's Neal(owner/artist) and Jack who is the other artist so it feels personal. Its not too crazy or too busy like other places I've been that they're talking with their buddies while tatting you! Neal constantly kept checking how I was doing and if I needed any breaks. I had a great experience and am ECSTATIC with his FREE HAND talent! I twitched many times but am beyond happy of what he did! Thanks Neal a.k.a. @mistercleantat2 (ig username) I'll be back for my sleeve and any other pieces I do!!! Read Less

This review is not for any tattoo work, just a first impression. A bad one.I came to Hawaii back in February and my plans for my final day there were thwarted by mother nature. Snorkeling trip and luau cancelled. So, I thought of what I could do in the rain and tattoo came to mind. I have a small hawaiian flower on my right shoulder blade that I wanted to get added on to, to commemorate my first solo trip to HI. I wasn't sure of what exactly I wanted, other than more flowers, but I figured, they are artists and would be able to give me some guidance. When I first walked in, I was very taken back. Very loud rap music playing and there were about 4 or 5 guys sitting around the shop. I am assuming they were drawing, but I couldn't tell you. I had to shout over the music to tell then what I was thinking about getting. The guy at the front referred to me to a few artist porfolios they had sitting on the counter. The only thing in these books was tribal work. It was great, but not what I was looking for at all. They also had no tattos poster boards like most shops do so you can take a look and get some ideas. Nothing.I explained that I wanted two or three hawaiian flowers added on, maybe a leaf here and there and asked him what he thought. The guy at the front told me this other guy could help me. He mostly answered, "well I don't know what you want". It seemed like they wanted nothing to do with my business and that I was an inconvenience for them. They gave me a quick price (for what? I don't know) but I told them I would think about it. I walked out and went to a different tattoo shop that was much more open to helping me come up with designs. P.S. There was also something shady going on with the second guy who spoke with me. He was clearly trying to hide an object that he did not want me to see. I do not know what it was, but I am not stupid and I could see him hiding something. Don't come here until you want a tribal tattoo. Read Less

I kept telling myself WRITE THIS REVIEW and I kept putting it off so now, bored at work, I'm writing this review. I was in Hawaii almost a year ago and I had the mission of finding a tattoo parlor with good reviews for my friends and I. I actually tried a different place first but they wouldn't answer their phone so I started scoping out Suite Dreamz!My friend and I went in and made an appointment for a few hours later, when we came back Sam met with us and talked over what we wanted. Sam was very professional and friendly! He gave my friend some pro-tips to calm his nerves about getting tattooed and it was a great experience for him. When it was my turn, Sam first tried to sketch out my tattoo onto my leg to freehand it, but then decided it would be better to make a stencil. I appreciated that he changed his mind rather than just trying to freehand it when he wasn't confident in it. It took him a while to sketch it out, but once he did I was SO HAPPY with it. He stayed late to finish up my piece and I'm very grateful!He forgot to cross the "t" in "thinking", I didn't notice until one of my friends pointed it out the next day and it probably would've taken me ages to notice on my own. I really don't mind, I think it's a fun conversation piece! It was probably just because it was late and he was ready to go home, I'm still so happy with my tattoo and the experience I had here!

I've been wanting to get a poly piece for a while and a friend of mine referred me to Neil. Neil went above and beyond on my piece! I had an idea of what I wanted, but I couldn't have imagined how amazing it would turn out! I met with him a couple times to tell him my ideas and things I wanted to tweak about the designs he came up with. I really appreciated his patience with me and his determination to make sure the ideas I had in my head were exactly what he'd design. Haven't seen a lot of artists do poly/mandala tattoos, and I was amazed with the poly/mandala pieces that he posted on his IG page.

I walked in, wanting a small anklet tattoo on Friday afternoon.. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted so I gave Shanti a couple of examples and one that tied in with another tattoo of mine, he was super awesome about what he could do and what would work etc. and basically told me, he could do it right now, but if I'm planning on going back to the beach - which I was - he'd recommend getting it done on my last day.. So I suggested Sunday evening, because Monday was my chill out, last day. I've just finished a little under 2 hours ago and I honestly couldn't be happier! The work that shanti did for me and the amount of effort and dedication that went into my tiny tattoo was simply incredible. I'm beyond happy with my choice of going to Suite Dreamz Tattoo, all the reviews are correct In saying their work is amazing. I will probably even make another trip out to Hawaii to see these guys again.. Thank you so much Shanti!!! Read Less

As pictured Neil did my pray hands and god is great than the highs and lows tattoo on my arm while Jack did the ear lines and Polynesian behind my ear. Neil is great with realism and black and grey as well as Polynesian and he also does color. Jack specializes in Polynesian. Neil and Jack can do most anything. They both can free hand Polynesian tattoos and any tattoo you give him can for sure accommodate. The shop is clean and the staff is friendly. You won't regret getting tattooed by either. Don't look any future then getting tattooed by Neil or Jack. There the best tattoo artist on the island. And the prices are very fair too. You get what you pay for. Shop minimum is $80. I don't regret any of my tattoos by them. They will work with you to give you an amazing tattoo and experience. Look no further then suite dreamz. Mahalo Neil and jack for the amazing tattoos.

My boyfriend spontaneously wanted to get a tattoo while in Waikiki and found this place. We did not make an appointment, we just walked in and they had some time for him. He didnt want any crazy tribal piece that would take hours, so that's probably why. The artist who tatted him was Mike (can't find him on social media to tag him on anything lol). He's from New Zealand and gave us some background on himself and his culture which was exciting for me because I've always wanted to visit there. Anyway, my boyfriend got a simple 19 over one knee and 91 on the other..about 5? Inches could be more or less. It's just an outline of it and he charged 157? I think. Which is not bad at all. For an outline with nothing filled in or shaded, other places were charging starting at $200. Turned out flawless and exactly how he wanted. Place is really small and hardly any room for waiting but worth it for the price and work they do. Read Less

Neil is nothing short of amazing - check his work on instagram for yourself. He did a stunning lotus flower cover up of the kanji on my neck. Both symbolize growth for me - I was just looking for something more feminine and fitting for this chapter of my path.
You get what you paid for. And, I think it is worth mentioning - I tried to SUPER tip him (because the position he had to maintain for 3+ hours to pull this must have been excruciating for him). He handed me back SIXTY DOLLARS. That’s a good, trustworthy person right there. Full of aloha.
I hope he stays local b/c I know where I’ll be stopping by each visit. MAHALO!!! Read Less

I can't begin to thank Neil and his staff enough for this amazing turn around job he did. The basic photo was a tattoo I got from a guy in Seattle and after 4 hours that's all that was produced. He told me it would take another 3 sessions. That's when I decided I was going to leave it up to a professional, I found Neil on Instagram and after reading the reviews and seeing the work he did for cover ups I knew this was definitely going to work out for me. I sent a message on Instagram and received a response within a day, was able to make the appointment and deposit without a problem. Neil put my mind at ease and as you can see the end result detailed second photo speaks for itself. He was able to take what he got to make the tattoo look amazing!! You won't be disappointed when you come to this shop. They are fair in price because they know what they are doing. I'm happy now to be able to show off my new tattoo and grateful to Neil for exceeding my expectations. It was worth every penny! Read Less

Out of all the tattoo shops I've been to, Suite Dreamz Tattoo really makes you feel welcomed. You can definitely tell that the artist there are passionate about what they do and how you can tell is by the work that they create. They show what true ALOHA feels. If you are looking for a place to get a tattoo, Suite Dreamz Tattoo is a place I would recommend. I was on the search to find an artist and couldn't find the right person. On my search, I looked to Yelp and looked for a tattoo shop in waikiki. Suite Dreamz Tattoo was the first that came up. I walked over and was greeted by the apprentice. He was very kind and helpful. I shared with him my ideas. He said the guy I should talk to is Neil. When I got the chance to meet Neil, he made me feel a lot more comfortable. We talked about the tattoo idea which is a Hawaiian inspired dream catcher tattoo. I had a drawing my friend drew for me and showed him. He told me his ideas and I was excited. We set up an appointment. The day came and I was nervous, but Neil made me feel right at home. I got the tattoo done on my left shoulder. It did take more than one session but after each session, I fell in love with my tattoo more and more. Once the tattoo was done, I couldn't believe how it turned out. I was shocked. It came out exactly the way I wanted it be. With the love that not only Neil showed, but also Jack and there apprentice. These guys show there passion through there artwork and I am glad that I can showcase Neil's work where ever I go. I am forever grateful for the tattoo that Neil made for me. Mahalo Nui Loa for everything. I will definitely be coming back to Suite Dreamz Tattoo for another tattoo. Read Less

My wife and I came here at the end of our honeymoon to get tattoos to commemorate the occasion. We came in a week before our session to schedule a time and it was pretty easy and straightforward booking a session. Neil tattooed a tribal piece on my R shoulder and Jack did a small piece on my wife's upper right back. This was my second tattoo and I was looking for a Polynesian tribal piece, Neil was very thorough in mapping out his artwork on my arm before tattooing. I could tell that he was very intensely focused on imagining the design in his head. Neil was a good conversationalist and it helped to pass the 4 hour tattoo session. Knowing that I'm Filipino, he even incorporated Filipino tribal designs on my arm to keep thing authentic. At the end of our session he went through and explained each pattern's rich meaning. It's been a couple of month's but I still stare amazed at the artwork on my arm everyday. My wife wanted a side portrait of Mother Mary holding baby Jesus and Jack was the artist who did her piece. She pulled up a general idea of what she wanted online and Jack took some time aside to draw his imagined piece out on paper. He was able to incorporate Polynesian designs in the abstract piece which is exactly what my wife was looking for. This was her first tattoo and Jack was extremely focused on executing the fine details of it. My wife and I were amazed at the level of detail he got on such a small tattoo. Both men were professional, courteous, and helped us feel at ease. There's no doubt that the next time I'm in Honolulu, I'll be looking for Neil to expand on the original piece. Read Less

The first thing you should know is that this shop should be your #1 pick if looking for tattoos in Wakiki! The art that Neil put together from my inspiration images was breathtaking! It was everything I wanted and more!! I also saw a few other pieces and it seems that both artists were more talented than most artists I have come across. Neil did a tattoo for my best friend and I do it took a huge chunk of the day but we were never bored. There are food options all around and the conversation was nice. My friend and I felt very comfortable. They even brought us snacks! (I didn't like them but it's the thought lol). The music was great and the experience even greater. We will be going to Suite Dreamz for all of our wakiki tattoo needs. I highly recommend Neil. He is very talented and I would bet that he can achieve anything you're dreaming up.

Like many others that have done reviews for Suite Dreamz, I also came to Hawaii for a vacation. While I was here, I decided to get my very first tattoo, and sought out the most reputable tattoo parlor on Oahu. Suite Dreams came highly recommended and Yelp reviews confirmed. Walked in one night and booked the appointment for 7/21/17 with Jack. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. Jack is an amazing artist and I admire his talent. He came up with a design for my calf which was beautiful, and then I decided to make a few changes at the last minute. What he came up with was nothing short of a beautiful piece of art on my calf-which is what I think a tattoo should always be. I couldn't be more pleased!! These guys are legit-if you're serious about getting done something, and getting it done correctly the first time, absolutely come see Jack at Suite Dreamz. I know the next time I'm back on Oahu, I'll be back to get more work done here. Read Less

A week over due... I have NEVER felt so comfortable at a Tattoo studio than at Suite Dreamz! I walked in and was acknowledged by the apprentice and the Owner Neal who was tatting another customer. I started talking with the apprentice and Neal came and introduced himself and looked at what and where I wanted my cover up to be. He had another apprentice take a picture on his Ipad of what would be covered up and made sure it was the angle and distance away from the spot so he could do a good sketch. There is a $40 deposit and $80 store minimum (pretty standard minimum, Great deal especially in waikiki) I scheduled my appointment and walked in day of and felt comfortable. He showed me the sketch, asked if i liked it but also told me it would be done free hand once he draws the main part of the outline. And gave me a price range which was less than what I was anticipating It's a small shop which I like because it's Neal(owner/artist) and Jack who is the other artist so it feels personal. Its not too crazy or too busy like other places I've been that they're talking with their buddies while tatting you! Neal constantly kept checking how I was doing and if I needed any breaks. I had a great experience and am ECSTATIC with his FREE HAND talent! I twitched many times but am beyond happy of what he did! Thanks Neal a.k.a. @mistercleantat2 (ig username) I'll be back for my sleeve and any other pieces I do!!! Read Less

This review is not for any tattoo work, just a first impression. A bad one.I came to Hawaii back in February and my plans for my final day there were thwarted by mother nature. Snorkeling trip and luau cancelled. So, I thought of what I could do in the rain and tattoo came to mind. I have a small hawaiian flower on my right shoulder blade that I wanted to get added on to, to commemorate my first solo trip to HI. I wasn't sure of what exactly I wanted, other than more flowers, but I figured, they are artists and would be able to give me some guidance. When I first walked in, I was very taken back. Very loud rap music playing and there were about 4 or 5 guys sitting around the shop. I am assuming they were drawing, but I couldn't tell you. I had to shout over the music to tell then what I was thinking about getting. The guy at the front referred to me to a few artist porfolios they had sitting on the counter. The only thing in these books was tribal work. It was great, but not what I was looking for at all. They also had no tattos poster boards like most shops do so you can take a look and get some ideas. Nothing.I explained that I wanted two or three hawaiian flowers added on, maybe a leaf here and there and asked him what he thought. The guy at the front told me this other guy could help me. He mostly answered, "well I don't know what you want". It seemed like they wanted nothing to do with my business and that I was an inconvenience for them. They gave me a quick price (for what? I don't know) but I told them I would think about it. I walked out and went to a different tattoo shop that was much more open to helping me come up with designs. P.S. There was also something shady going on with the second guy who spoke with me. He was clearly trying to hide an object that he did not want me to see. I do not know what it was, but I am not stupid and I could see him hiding something. Don't come here until you want a tribal tattoo. Read Less

I kept telling myself WRITE THIS REVIEW and I kept putting it off so now, bored at work, I'm writing this review. I was in Hawaii almost a year ago and I had the mission of finding a tattoo parlor with good reviews for my friends and I. I actually tried a different place first but they wouldn't answer their phone so I started scoping out Suite Dreamz!My friend and I went in and made an appointment for a few hours later, when we came back Sam met with us and talked over what we wanted. Sam was very professional and friendly! He gave my friend some pro-tips to calm his nerves about getting tattooed and it was a great experience for him. When it was my turn, Sam first tried to sketch out my tattoo onto my leg to freehand it, but then decided it would be better to make a stencil. I appreciated that he changed his mind rather than just trying to freehand it when he wasn't confident in it. It took him a while to sketch it out, but once he did I was SO HAPPY with it. He stayed late to finish up my piece and I'm very grateful!He forgot to cross the "t" in "thinking", I didn't notice until one of my friends pointed it out the next day and it probably would've taken me ages to notice on my own. I really don't mind, I think it's a fun conversation piece! It was probably just because it was late and he was ready to go home, I'm still so happy with my tattoo and the experience I had here!

Jack was AMAZING. And super chill.I can't remember the last time i walked into a studio feeling nervous to walk out feeling actually happy. I've always had artists that never seemed happy with what YOU want. And yet i walked out with a huge smile on my face.Jack was completely open and did such an amazing job. The detail is on point and his line work is perfection. I was a walk in aswell and he sketched what i wanted off the bat. He even stayed back later than closing to finish it off.I am so happy I walked into this place. I will definitely be returning. Great value for money. The boys are super happy and fun. Read Less
