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.

Each Mahina store has their own curation of items and out of the Kapa'a and Koloa locations, Princeville is my fav. I picked up a beautiful flowy dress, shirt, and linen top here.

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.
