Sara Layne Pedro is the Principal Broker of LUVA Real Estate and the 2026 President of the West Hawaiʻi Association of REALTORS®. Since beginning her Hawaiʻi real estate career in 2014, she has become known for thoughtful leadership, honest guidance, and a relationship-centered approach.
As Principal Broker, Sara has helped guide LUVA’s growth into a full-service boutique brokerage serving Hawaiʻi Island and Oʻahu. Working alongside LUVA’s owners, brokers, agents, and staff, she has expanded the company’s agent base, strengthened its property portfolios, and supported the growth of its residential sales, long-term property management, luxury vacation rental, and estate management divisions.
Sara’s expertise in luxury estate management and vacation rentals gives her an understanding of the service, discretion, and attention to detail expected by owners of exceptional Hawaiʻi properties. That experience naturally complements her luxury sales practice, allowing her to advise clients with a broader understanding of ownership, property care, investment potential, and the distinctive qualities that shape a home’s value and story.
Sara has called Hawaiʻi Island home since 2001. She and her husband, who is Hawaiian and was raised in the islands, have raised three children in Hawaiʻi. Outside of work, she enjoys supporting her children’s activities, participating in community events, volunteering, and camping with her family.

LUVA was built with intention — not just to be another real estate company, but to be a place where good people do meaningful work, together. We’re proud of the environment we’ve created: one that values professionalism, kindness, accountability, and real support. We work hard, we respect each other, and we keep our standards high — not because it’s trendy, but because it’s the right way to do business. We’re selective about who joins our team. Not to be exclusive — but to protect the integrity of what we’ve built. We look for agents who share our values, care about their clients, and want to grow with people they trust. LUVA’s culture isn’t about appearances. It’s about consistency, respect, and showing up — for each other, and for the people we serve.
No franchise fees. No monthly desk fees.
Fair, competitive splits. Real support.
Let’s talk about what you’re looking for — and whether LUVA is the right place for you.
