Subletting in hawaii

Hi so this is a bit of a long post but I’m new to this realm of real estate. So I currently have a rental unit in my name and I have the landlords permission to sublet. I’m charging a few hundred dollars more a month as sort of a rental arbitration. My question is about disclosure. Do I need to indicate to the sublesees that I am a sublessor in the rental agreement? Essentially should I tell the potential tenants by law that they are subleasing from me or does my leasehold interest in the property give me permission to market it as though I am the “landlord”? Asking as far as my legal obligations if anyone knows since I am unable to find anything specific in the law about drafting the lease. I would prefer to just market it as landlord as people tend to shy away from subleases. Note: I will also be obtaining my real estate license in a couple months so I don’t want to risk “misrepresentation”. I’m under the impression my lease and the landlords permission gives me the right to sublet as an agreement between my landlord and myself, not the business of the new sublettors. Correct me if I’m wrong and I’m open to a verbal beating. Thanks
