Ayako Ide Ancheta

A distinguished leader in Hawai‘i’s luxury real estate market, Ayako Ide Ancheta brings over two decades of real estate sales experience — including more than a decade serving as a Broker-in-Charge — representing exceptional properties and discerning clients across the islands, the mainland, and Japan. Known for her integrity, global perspective, and unwavering professionalism, Ayako blends deep local knowledge with international reach — earning the trust of buyers and sellers at every level of the market.

Originally from Kamakura, Japan, Ayako brings the discipline and precision of an elite athlete to her practice, having competed professionally as a bodyboarder while completing her degree at Ritsumeikan University. Today, that same dedication defines her approach as a Broker-in-Charge, where she leads with confidence, clarity, and a deep understanding of Hawaii’s most coveted neighborhoods.

Fluent in both English and Japanese, Ayako is a sought-after advisor to clients navigating complex cross-border transactions, offering white-glove service informed by cultural fluency and market insight. Her reputation for excellence has made her the agent of choice for first-time buyers, seasoned investors, and high-profile clients, including legendary sumo champion Konishiki.

When not advising clients or negotiating contracts, Ayako is often found on the water — longboarding Waikīkī, bodyboarding Pipeline, or training with the championship paddling crew at the Outrigger Canoe Club. Her passion for the ocean and the islands is reflected in every aspect of her work.

With a life lived across O‘ahu — from the North Shore to Diamond Head — Ayako offers an insider’s perspective on the lifestyle, character, and quiet elegance that define each community. For those seeking a trusted guide to Hawaii’s finest real estate, Ayako delivers unmatched expertise with grace, discretion, and aloha.
