On vacation on Kauai. Went into this shop (lu.la) with friends who are native to the island. As we…read morewere leaving one of the employees there "Georgia" actually followed us out to the sidewalk and accused my friend with taking a magazine. She said "I saw you pick it up" and "maybe you forgot you picked it up". This is a complete and utter lie. My friend was actually holding a magazine he had gotten across the street at Banana Patch Studio, a great local owned store. What happened at Lu.la was so rude, and appeared to be racially motivated. My friends are Hawaiian and I am Latino/asian. My friend's wife is one of the most respected physicians on the island and my friend is a noted photographer on Kauai. My wife is a doctor and I am an attorney. To be accused in such a rude manner was utterly unacceptable. The item in question is literally a local magazine available in every store on Kauai. We were given the magazine by the store owner from the shop across the street and walked into Lu.la. with it. Craziest thing is it is a free magazine available all over the island. The general what to do on Kauai you can get anywhere. When my friend spoke to the owner of Lu.la. about the incident, Angela the owner, instead of being apologetic, became hostile. She said "well you didn't buy anything" "is our apology not enough" very sarcastically. Like that was an excuse for their outrageous behavior. We actually left because their store was so hot and the products nothing special. This behavior is not acceptable on Kauai. This is what local Hawaiian's talk about being a problem on this island. The exact opposite of what you get when you shop at local owned businesses. Avoid this place! They do not reflect the values of the people of Kauai. Also, the entire conversation was recorded. My friend was not hostile. He was professional and spoke respectfully. We can and will upload the recording if Lu.la denies their hateful behavior. This kind of conduct anywhere is awful and has to be called out since the owner would take no responsibility for their employees woeful conduct. This store opposite of aloha in every way and not friendly or authentic in any way.

I came here with my family that was visiting from the mainland, and we had a pleasant experience…read more Georgia was very helpful and kind. The store had a selection for everyone and the prices were reasonable. I would recommend everyone to visit Lu.la when they visit Hanapēpē!

Aloha Exchange is my go-to shop whenever I'm on Kauai. If I need some fresh gear, it's always a…read moremust-visit. They consistently have a great selection of soft, comfortable apparel and the latest styles at fair prices. Parking is easy with a lot right out front, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming.

This was a cool find since we were staying in Waimea and always driving by this spot. It has kids,…read moremen's and women's selections of apparel, hats and some camping gear. Pretty cool house brand too. Their clothing rivaled the usual suspects; RVCA, Salty Crew, Outwrknown, etc. Prices were typical of a boutique style Surf-Outdoor shop. I snagged a pair of 40% off RVCA board shorts. Check out discount bins as there was good stuff in there. Staff was helpful around the context of their house brand designs. Solid spot to visit and support a local retailer and the Aloha Exchange brand.

I was killing time in Ele'ele before a date and drove around the Port Allen area. Much to my…read moresurprise, The Village Market (sans "place") moved from Kōloa to Ele'ele! I went in to support a local business and the shopkeeper was hospitable and a great salesperson. She explained that their suppliers are local, but some products are made overseas. Still, they have a great selection of clothing, toys, home decor and my favorite, candles and skin products. There is a decent kama'aina discount that helps keep things reasonable.

Handmade jewelry, artisan body care, surf and island wear for both men and women... I could've spent all day and all my money in here! They even had papale Hawaiian sun hats.

My FAVORITE store to shop at!…read more I have found so many great items that have become staples in my closet + pieces I gift to others, from brands including Levi's, Lululemon, Acacia Swimwear, Mai Underwear, Mahina Made, Manaola, the list goes on. I never leave empty-handed and the majority (if not all) of my recent clothes purchases are from here. The items show little to no signs of wear or even still have the tags. Plus, the prices are beyond reasonable for what you end up with! The owner, Malina, is kind, fair, knowledgeable in fashion (& much more), and is so fun to be around while shopping! Supporting this sustainable, Native Hawaiian, woman-owned shop makes me so happy. Definitely stop by the next time you're in Poipu!

I wish I would have had more time because the bottle was leaking a bit when I checked before boarding. Regardless the product is amazing and the customer service was rad. The girl who was working opening shift on 9/9/22 gets a huge thumbs up for being sweet and helpful. God bless Shipwrecked Kauai! PS: I understand the majority of their stuff is way super duper expensive. However, check the sale baskets on the ground (there were 4 full baskets during our visit). We were able to find a huge selection of clothing with MAJOR markdowns! My friend found a 149$ swimsuit marked down to 25$. She needs to repair one inch on the seam and it'll be like new. 100% worth searching for the deals here :)

Unfortunately, they were all overpriced in my opinion. While the quality is nice, I couldn't justify spending $80 before tax on a plain white shirt. If it was more affordable, I would've bought multiple items from them. I would've given them 4 stars, but they lost one because one of the employees kept watching me the entire time I browsed the store. She would literally crane her neck around people to keep watching me. It was very uncomfortable.
