Description
For more than four decades, Debra Blachowiak has been a trusted advisor and market leader in Kauai real estate, consistently ranked among the island’s top producers. Her career reflects a proven ability to guide clients through transactions of every scale with precision, care, and insight.
As a former co-owner and Principal Broker of Kauai’s original Sotheby’s brokerage, Sleeping Giant Realty, Debra established a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and results that continues to define her work today. She is widely recognized for her expertise in luxury estates, oceanfront properties, and large land tracts, while her broad experience allows her to skillfully represent distinctive properties across the island.
Through Aloha Sotheby’s International Realty, Debra connects Kauai properties to an international audience, with global syndication across premier platforms including the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Nikkei, Juwai, and Mansion Global. Sellers benefit from unmatched worldwide exposure, while Buyers gain the confidence of working with a broker whose local knowledge is complemented by global reach.
Beyond real estate, Debra is deeply involved in Kauai’s cultural and nonprofit life. Since 1997, she has held a leading role with Hawaiʻi Children’s Theatre (HCT), an award-winning nonprofit providing performing arts education to more than 300 youth annually. In 2024, HCT was nationally honored with the Stand For The Arts Award, presented by Ovation TV and Spectrum—recognition given to just ten organizations across the country each year. Debra’s commitment to HCT reflects her dedication to both youth development and the enrichment of Kauai’s cultural landscape. In addition she is on the board of Kauai’s largest independent school, Island School, and she has been a teacher of Transcendental Meditation (TM) since 1974.
Debra resides in Omao with her husband, Ernie, where they embrace the island’s rich culture and natural beauty. Their daughter, Juli, works in the film industry in Los Angeles.
Clients value Debra’s unparalleled experience, her precise understanding of Kauai’s market, and her commitment to building relationships that extend far beyond the transaction.
