Akino Hayakawa

Akino brings unparalleled expertise and compassion to her real estate practice, backed by 20+ years in the luxury retail industry with globally renowned brands like LVMH and Prada Group. As the former Retail Director for Hawaii at Prada, she managed five stores and reported directly to the CEO in Tokyo, honing her exceptional negotiation, analytical, and people skills.

Bilingual and bicultural, Akino is fluent in English and Japanese and draws on her Los Angeles roots and Keio University education in Political Science to connect effortlessly with clients worldwide. Her passion for delivering exceptional service is rooted in a childhood dream of becoming an ambassador—a vision she now channels into providing concierge-level experiences in real estate.

Known for her attention to detail and dedication, Akino achieved notable success in 2019 when she sold the former CEO of Louis Vuitton Japan’s Hawaii residence in under a month. More than 90% of her clients come from referrals, with many returning to her for multiple transactions, a testament to her integrity and skill.

Beyond real estate, Akino enjoys an active lifestyle—golfing, hiking, traveling—and continuous learning. She is committed to being your lifelong real estate partner and connecting you with top-tier agents worldwide.
