    We decided to walk off a meal by exploring the little shops across the street from our resort. Our stops included this little shop. There were lots of Hawaiian souvenirs: artwork, trinkets, tags, ornaments, picture frames and other inexpensive items to bring home as giveaways. Ok it's the Holiday Season so we were able to pick up inexpensive gifts to give. Including a Spam Musubi ornament for a spam loving friend. Ok we picked up a few things for ourselves. Reasonable pricing and a good assortment of inventory made it a winning stop.

    This is such a cute store with fun products that celebrate home and Hawaii. There are so many colorful and vibrant items that capture the life in Hawaii.

    Such a fun experience! Highly recommend as a souvenir and you can customize on your trip to Koolina

    Such a cute place! Got to personalize a Hawaiian themed frame/board. The lady assisting us was really helpful. Will def be back again!

    they have so many cute options to personalize your own board. The staff was super friendly and helpful

    They have the cutest merchandise and a variety of slippers. My mom bought a letterfall board and frame that she customized as her souvenir. They have super cute ornaments, coasters & postcards too.

    They don't just sell shoes and slippahs here btw. They sell these birchwood letter cutouts for longboards with different designs and styles. I've personally purchased the different signs (Ohana) for my children and friends. They have frames with island themes as well as birchwood postcards, which make beautiful gifts and/or souvenirs. We never fail to make a stop here whenever my kids are back on the island and we are in the Ko'olina area "playing like tourists." Parking is sparse but I find that if we come early in the day, its quite easy. Staff is always friendly and eager to help.

    I wanted something original as a souvenir for our trip and walked into Coco Nene in Ko Olina shops on Oahu. The sales girl was EXTREMELY helpful and so pleasant! She asked what we've done and I mentioned Moana Falls. She guided me to some options and ended up with the perfect pieces! I love the concept of mixing and matching. Such a fun variety and I loved that everything was made in Hawaii. I couldn't wait to bring home and put our Diamond Head summit picture inside. I love it and couldn't have asked the more perfect souvenir from our amazing trip to the islands! Thank you for a super fun concept! I would highly recommend for a great souvenir or gift.

    CocoNene is a cute little shop that features wooden pieces that are customizable to a souvenir for your recent travels to Hawaii. We loved picking up a few ornaments and magnets to display in our home and will be back to customize a long board display to remember our recent trip to Oahu. Friendly staff, well made designs, and my favorite part about this store is getting to customize a souvenir!

    Locally made Christmas ornaments for the family

    Wonderful service, great selection and value for locally made gifts and home decor. A true diamond in the rough and worth making the time to visit.

    Do these flasks have different lid options other than twist top and sip? I'm looking for something that can be interchangeable with a straw type lid.

They lock into the local community to make the whole town feel complete. It's a special, one-of-a-kind place. These are the mom 'n pop stores I grew up with on the Big Island of Hawai'i. Some are still around. Mom 'n pop stores, the inspiration behind Kalepa's Store at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa. Ko Olina-O'ahu. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "My Storytelling" It's the weekend and my parents are taking my siblings and I to a kiosk in Kaiko'o Mall. To enjoy Icee from Kaiko'o Seeds N'things, as we choose bags of cracked seed from this mom 'n pop store. Household appliances weren't purchased from corporate retailers like today. My family and most of East Hawai'i years+ ago were loyal to mom 'n pop stores like Modern Appliance. Next door, Kay's Lunch Center had the most delicious Korean fried chicken made by "mom", and slices of homemade cream pies by "pop". ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Kai Store since 1948, Chika Nakano since 1975, Optical Dispensers, Hilo Siam Thai Restaurant (see my Yelp review), and Leung's Chop Suey House since 1975. Doris Place since 1948 on the west side and Hirano Store since 1969 in Mountain View. These are some of the mom 'n pop stores currently still in-business on the Big Island of Hawai'i. Since my childhood. And of course, the Hasegawa General Store since 1910, still serving the local community in Hana-Maui. Featured in the Disney animated film, Lilo & Stitch. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Disney Storytelling" A story is shared with intricate details. Culturally significant, extremely immersive. The Disney way - through storytelling. The culture of the Hawaiian people is displayed in the most creative way by Disney Imagineers. Unlike any resort in Hawai'i. Unique architecture and design, awe-inspiring artwork and murals throughout. Multi-sensory excellence at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa. Home to Kalepa's Store. The only place to purchase official Disney merchandise and exclusive Aulani items in Hawai'i. (Visit my Yelp review of Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa.) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Elevated Perspective" Joyful suspension, relaxed excitement. A rental car made the drive possible from Waikīkī on my first visit. Fourteen months later, a last minute window of opportunity became available for another visit to Kalepa's Store. I've learned to look upwards for hidden high level details and architectural Disney magic. As I entered Kalepa's Store, I found the most meaningful key designing element. Framed photos of actual mom 'n pop stores in Hawai'i. Some are now closed, others are currently still in business. It brought personality, warmth, meaning and an authentic deep connection to the rich history of my home-state. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Retail exclusivity is why I'm here. Unique Aulani logo items, clothing and accessories that cannot be found inside the Disney theme parks and online. Bags of Disney Parks Main Street Popcorn like those found at Disneyland are found along with my favorite, Gummi Disney Character Bites. Guest service excellence at Kalepa's Store. Individual attention, personalized conversations, strong engagement from the cast members. We laughed and reminisced about our past trips to Disneyland, Disney vloggers we watch. Photo ops were taken, care was extended. I felt valued. That the drive from Waikīkī was worth every minute, that my choice to be here as a local Hawai'i resident was appreciated. I'm departing Kalepa's Store, Aulani logo shopping bags in both hands with orange tissue paper puffs. All smiles, I'm content. Parking validation is extended since my purchase reached a certain dollar amount. It's now time to enjoy the resort property for just a while longer... ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Future Inspired" Mom 'n pop stores. Independent, family-owned, a unique role in the local community. But they struggle to compete with larger corporations, big box retailers and e-commerce platforms who have buying power. My visit to Kalepa's Store at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa opened my eyes. It made me realize my unique role in my local community, how important my choices are. Where I shop, where I dine, where I choose to take my business as a consumer. It matters to help keep money circulating nearby for the vitality of mom 'n pop stores and small businesses in my community, on my home-island. In Hawai'i. Even though I'm employed by a corporation, I've recently decided on making small, gradual changes in some of my habitual spending. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Be Inspired" I implore you to do the same while you visit, shop, casually meander and enjoy the most unique resort property in Hawai'i.

People were buying everything in the store. They were standing in line holding clothes, mugs, toys, headbands with the ears and snacks. I really liked the Disney ears, but they were $40 something each or $30 each when you buy 3. I decided not to get them, even though they were so cute.

I've taken many visiting friends to Crazy Shirts as they highlight many visions of the Islands from the fun with musubi, slangs, points of interest and all things about dad.

So many designs and colors to choose from it certainly is crazy where it's the shirts that's the conversation piece! Thank you!

I've tried to raise a butterfly from caterpillar before, and they eat so much, and they're super picky so unless you have a lot of crownflower leaves, it's hard to keep up with them. (But it's super fascinating watching them spin their little green crysalis) When you purchase a paradise monarch, it comes as a crysalis already on a raffia and packaged in a clear box all wrapped and ready to give. They even give you instructions on how to care for them & tell you which day the butterfly is going to come out, and it was accurate each time. I bought 2 the first time for Christmas for my nieces, and they loved the experience of releasing the butterflies, I had to go back and buy another one. My sister loved it because it didn't make a mess, require assembly, batteries or parental assistance like most toys or gifts for kids that age. It's fascinating even for adults, I mean how do you even go from a crawling green worm like thing to a winged orange and black flying insect? It blows my mind. Did you know that most caterpillars don't make it to butterfly stage? They get eaten by birds etc or don't successfully transform into a butterfly. We successfully released all 3 butterflies I got from Paradise Monarch. Highly recommend!

I do love their poke bowls there. One thing I really appreciate is the amount of seating. There are plenty of tables indoors, plus outdoor seating if you'd rather enjoy your meal outside. It makes it a nice spot to relax instead of rushing out the door. I also noticed the condiments are available near the self-checkout area, which is a nice convenience. A few other helpful things I took note of: there are three ATM machines in the dining area if you need cash, and restrooms are available both near the main entrance and in the dining area. I took a few photos for reference to help future shoppers. Also I forgot to add, you now can enter from both sides of the store. Overall, it's more than just a grocery store, it's a great place to grab a quick bite, meet up with a friend, or even have a casual small business meeting. Definitely a convenient spot that offers a lot more than just groceries!

The new style of to-go containers that Don Don Donki is using does not seem very sturdy or secure. Upon leaving the store, the lid came loose and all of the liquid spilled inside my bag. When a lid comes off that easily, it can turn what should have been an enjoyable food experience into a frustrating one before you even get the chance to eat your meal. I completely understand the importance of eco-friendliness, controlling costs, and maintaining profitability margins. However, I would highly recommend investing in better-quality to-go containers, especially for foods that contain liquids or sauces. I would personally rather pay a little more for my meal if it meant receiving a sturdier container that I could confidently carry out of the store. Sometimes the packaging is just as important as the food because it is part of the overall customer experience. Charge us a little more for a better-quality container, and I think many customers would thank you for it. I was genuinely excited about my corned beef hash, so it was disappointing to have an exciting experience turn into a bad one the moment I walked out the door. I hope the new containers can be reconsidered or improved.
