We only had our carry-ons and the clothes on our backs. My husband and I needed some clothes and we decided to stop here because it was within walking distance of the Grand Hyatt where we were staying. We had stopped at other shops and either women's suits were running $50 per piece for a bikini or more. Luckily I was able to find a two piece swimsuit from Sea Level Swim Australia here for about $70 due to a 50% off clearance sale. My husband got a discounted pair of swim trunks in the $30 range. This store saved the day because I was not about to swim in a hotel in my undies. Visited: January 2023

Nice little surf apparel shop located at Poipu Shopping Village. They sell their own brand as well…read moreas popular surf brands like Billabong, RVCA, etc. After our luggage made the flight but not us (flight issue where we ending up deplaning!), we were left without anything for 24 hours except the clothes on our backs! Came here the next morning to at least find a swimsuit to enjoy the hotel pool for the day. It was about 1.5 mi walk from Grand Hyatt. Upon arrival, I found that due to a 50% clearance sale on certain items that this was the only affordable place in the area to find stuff under $100! My wife got a swimsuit from Sea Level Swim Australia for about 80 bucks (2-piece), while I got Billabong board shorts for $30!! Great deal! And a life saver too!! They also sell t-shirts, Aloha shirts, swim cover-ups, beach blankets, sunglasses, and more!

But I did not buy a t-shirt, here. Just felt 'em. Just got my grubby sweaty hands on their virgin threads. The electricity was out, nobody saw me. Actually, the owner was there and she was super attentive and friendly, informative and just a tad... used car salesman? She was just so excited about the incredible DEALS! And she had a good one: probably one of the more original plaid button-down short sleeve shirts I've seen, it was half off, and just barely affordable. And I wore it for all the formal occasions I attended on this island, and I was the coolest person in the room, and everybody told me so. Not.

As a brand, I find them a little overpriced for what they offer, but not really taking they into account with this review - it's my choice to shop here after all. They have a good in-stock position and can usually find items in my size. The staff is friendly although a bit too attentive... You know how it goes, stopping by every 60 seconds when you're in tbe changing room, asking you how you are doing every 30 seconds on the floor. I'm sure some appreciate that more than I do, but it was fine for the most part.

From t shirts and hats, to boardshorts/bikinis, flip flops, and backpacks. They even carry refillable water bottles and cups. Here's the thing though, everything is piled together and you have no idea what is where, and good luck finding something in your size. Like I said everything is kind of piled on top of each other, or hing on the few racks but without order. For example, we found a t shirt, but only one. Asked the young lady working, and she said not sure that we could look through the piles on one of the tables. Huh?! We still ended up with a hat, only because we knew if we didn't get it, who knows if we would even be able to find it again if we went back. This place is a mess. Also, not friendly, and they don't accept cash. So there's that.. if you have patience to dig and rifle through everything, you will probably find some good stuff. They have all the best brands, so it's a shame to see the store as it was. Definitely not repping Hurley, RVCA, etc. the way they should be.

Here are 5 really "cool"…read more.. No wait... Actually Hot, REALLY HOT, facts about our Sun! 1. We can fit 1.3 million earths inside the sun. Did you hear what I just said!?!?!? One. Point. Three. Million. C'mon Yelp! Just let me insert the mind blown emoji!!! 2. It takes 8 minutes for the sun's light to reach our earth. Talk about the speed of light!!! 3. The sun is ONLY 27 Million Degrees Fahrenheit. We're gonna need better sunscreen if we ever visit. 4. The sun is about 4.5 billion years old. Fun fact: whatever you do... Do not google like I just did, "Will our sun ever burn out?" Cause now, I've got really bad anxiety... ... ..... ........ ............ ............................ You googled it, didn't you! Scary huh? Good news is, we'll be dust by then. ;) And last, but not least... Factoid numero cinco. 5. The sun is 92,960,000 miles from earth. Fun fact: Every January (early January to be exact) the earth is closest to our Sun. This is known as Perihelion. So... Now that you are expert on our Sun, on our home, aka the earth... Are you ready to learn a little more Spanish? ¿Listo? Uno. Dos. Trés. ¡Vamos! Del Sol = Of The Sun Cambiar Color = Change Color El sol hace La magia = The Sun makes the Magic Now, Who's ready to make some magic! Just mix... a little bit of Sun + a little splash of Spectrachrome and get ready to say, "ooh!! Aah!!!" That right people! Every single product at Del Sol; the hats, the clothing, the sunglasses, the accessories, the nail polish... Will change color with the UV rays from the Sun! Don't believe me?? Check it out for yourself! Just bring any product in store over to their testing areas to see the magic unfold. Better yet... Pick out a shirt. Select some new shades. Or grab a few of their plastic rings for a buck each and take them straight to the register to pay and rock them outdoors in the sun for yourself! Just wait till you start turning heads... Lighting up the day... Changing Color... One Sun Ray at a time! So what have we learned?? The Sun is really big, it's very hot, and it's super old! And in Spanish... El sol es muy grande, muy caliente y muy viejo! But Del Sol in Kauai... This place, their products, are just plain COOL! So if you find yourself visiting the Island of Kauai.. Come visit them in beautiful Koloa Town.

Twice this week on two separate visits I experienced very poor customer service. The first visit found myself and only one other customer in the store. As I was browsing, the employee was chatting with another customer about her divorce, her two son. I they had biblical names. Anyway, everything was about her divorce and her sons, not once did she stop to ask if I needed help. I continued to browse, and she never approached me. Fast forward a couple days, Thursday I checked the website for hours, which indicated 9:00 a.m. I knocked on the door, the employee looked up and ignored my knock. So I called to see if they would be opening soon, no answer! Employee can still see me I knocked one more time and she looked up gestured her hand as to flipping/shooing me away! I tried to make eye contact gesturing with my hands two five (10:00) she continued to shoo me away with her hand. Honestly, all she had to do was simply tell me when they would be opening. I felt she was very rude, and unprofessional. I've spent a lot of money in their establishment, told my friends too. However, I will no longer spend my $$$$ at any Blue Ginger.
