Have to puck and choose your style and patterns bur I love their cotton dresses. ESu, well made, great quality.

I used to love shopping here, 10 yrs ago. But I walked out empty handed today. I'm just not into their colors or patterns. Most were too bright/loud for my liking. read more

I finally used my gift card (which was set to expire in Dec 2025), at their Punahou store. After visiting the Punahou and Kailua store throughout the year, I finally found two tops that I immediately fell in love with. The staff were friendly and helpful and the store was clean. Seemed like they had several sizes available in all their merchandise which is great. Their dressing rooms are spaced nicely and they have several. They have ample parking spaces out in front of the store. read more

Manuheali'i has for a long time been the go to location for myself and my colleagues, in fact, our coaching staff went with matching Manuhealii prints for almost a decade. For me, the two main reasons to buy Manuheali'i. First, their clothes is often made with a thinner material which is both comfortable and practical, especially during the summer. Business attire or dining out looks better when you're not sweating in your thick cotton aloha shirt. Second, their prices used to be just a tad lower than a lot of the other high end Hawaiian fashion designers. But that seems to be changing. It's going to be more difficult for Hawaiians to wear Hawaiian wear if the prices continue to increase but if you're looking for something professional, fancy, and comfortable, this is probably one of the best brands to go with. read more

The first few people stood in line since 6a for a 10a opening on 7/11/26 and only exited the shop at 11:35a. Too long. The process needs to be streamlined to enable more people to engage with the wonderful product. After realizing this, I went to Blue Lani boutique on the same block and dropped $100 in less than 10 min and got some beautiful pieces that only produce 9 of each in small batches. I wanted to give my money to Manuheali'i and drove from Kapolei to see the drop. Hoping this is useful feedback for Manuhealii and their fan base. read more

I walked in with the intent to buy a blouse. There were 2 gals at the counter. No acknowledgement or anything. I looked through the racks and I'm a newbie to this brand and didn't know that clothes sell out fast. There was nothing in my size. I really don't know if I'll make the drive there again. Guess I was lucky when I went there last year and found a blouse. It felt kinda cliquish in there, as they were joking around with another customer who was trying on clothes. They were laughing and joking with her and really, not even acknowledging another customer in there. As I walked out, they said 'Thank you!' For what? Idk. For letting them ignore me? lol read more

Manuheali'i - Men's Clothing Near Me - Kailua, Hawaii

Manuhealii has completely lost its way, and my recent experience only proves how far this company has fallen. What used to be a brand known for its quality, aloha spirit, and beautiful designs has become a business that prioritizes profit over people, with subpar products and downright rude customer service. I recently purchased a matching set for my three children for a family funeral and needed sizes for myself and my husband. I made it very clear that I needed the clothing urgently, as the funeral was Saturday morning, and I was told the remaining items would be ready for pickup on Friday. I received a voicemail at 3:15 PM that day letting me know the order was ready. I live 1.5 hours away, so I called to let them know I'd be cutting it close to their 5 PM closing time. Instead of understanding or offering any flexibility, the employee on the phone laughed and said, "We close firmly at 5--drive safe!" I rushed the entire way and arrived at the store at 5:02 PM, only to find the door locked. The elderly employee was standing right there, shaking her head at me while I stood outside in tears, begging her to let me in. I explained that my grandmother's funeral was the next morning at 9 AM and that I just needed to pick up the clothing I had already paid for. Her response? "No, no, no." No empathy, no aloha, just a cold refusal. This was not just bad service--it was outright disrespectful during an incredibly emotional time. To make matters worse, the quality of their clothing has declined significantly. What used to be made with breathable rayon and cotton is now cheap, itchy polyester--plastic, overpriced garbage marketed as premium aloha wear. It's bad enough that the clothing is uncomfortable, but it's also completely unsustainable. Manuhealii is contributing more plastic to landfills and more microplastics to our bodies. This company seems completely behind the times when it comes to using ethical, healthy materials, and they've abandoned any sense of the aloha spirit they once had. Instead, their employees, especially the older woman I dealt with, act cocky and condescending, as if working behind the Manuhealii register makes them better than the very customers who made this brand what it is. I'll never shop here again. Instead, I'll be supporting brands that still care about quality, sustainability, and customer respect, like Fighting Eel, Yireh, Eternal Summer Hawaii, Sig Zane, and Kahulalea. Manuhealii could learn a lot from them, but at this point, I'm done. read more

Beautiful shop located downtown in the heart of Kailua. Free parking in their large lot that also is currently used by Ange's Authentic Portuguese Bale Shop Malasada Truck! Yummy Bonus for your after shopping pleasure! This small but nicely arranged shop carries all the latest Hawaiian Kine fashions and accessories! I purchased a cute pink shirt, pink patterned mask and coffee mug fir a friend that loves Kailua and the color Pink! This shop is a bit on the pricey side but has great products and free gift wrapping! read more

Poor service. Bunch of entitled Tita's walking around talking.story and selectively acknowledging customers. Oh sorry, if you one . But don't waste your hard earned money here. Clothing has no shape, sloppy looking. Very limited selection in store. Tons of cars in parking lot when I went, but no one in the store...snobby snobby snobby...where is the Aloha? read more

I am in love with literally all of their prints! I have rompers in all of the colors with the heliconia print. It's perfect for casual wear or a nice night out! I felt like a million bucks with my red heliconia dress at the merrie monarch! I got so many compliments! I will be a returning customer forever! The staff are always so friendly and helpful! read more

This is the Gucci of locals who live in Hawai'i! Every season has their own unique patterns. I love that they have all sizes including plus size! read more

Manuheali'i - Spring 2023 - Men's Clothing Near Me - Kailua, Hawaii

If you're looking for light weight comfort clothing with cute chic Polynesians designs. This is your store!!

I was in search of an aloha print too for my daughters school pictures. Unfortunately she's right between the cusp of a child and an adult for sizing. While we weren't able to find anything age appropriate to fit her, it's not for lack of effort by the sales associates! Very helpful & friendly gals! Cute prints as usual, loud, bold & daring colors to boot! I had to keep reminding myself of the mission so as not to start shopping for myself! read more

Locally owned and you can feel the aloha. I have been to the town location as well as this Kailua one and both are equally pleasant. However, since I grew up on the windward side I do have a partiality to the vibe on the east side. Shop here for the work wardrobe because I like the prints and the size just fits right for me. The workers are always friendly and helpful too. Hint: If they don't have a certain print or size you want inquire with the salesperson because they may have it at the other location. Styles and prints change regularly. Fair is fair come check this place out for the she, he, and keiki options. read more

On Wednesday, March 22, 2023 at 330pm, we visited Manuheali'i in Kailua and was serviced by Laure and Kayla. It was a phenomenal shopping event for both my best friend and my myself. Manuheali'i is indeed, a top-level business ! This customer service review is to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding customer service provided by Laure. Please know she is a "true asset" to your team and company ! She exemplifies an excellent role model of a business professional. More over, she has outstanding people skills, highly motivated and truly goes that "extra mile" in providing excellent customer service. Speaking to our specific situation, she persevered and steadfastly, endured (never giving up) in her research investigation regarding our dilemma. As she did her research, it was very evident that she was highly-skilled in utilizing the computer system, well-versed and knowledgeable in her work functions. We remained very confident in her ability to solve our dilemma. Needless to say, she make the heroic attempt, far and beyond, and reached out to her Cheri, her manager for consultation. Laure truly made a "definite difference" in our rewarding shopping experience! She would be the main reason why we would continue shopping at your business ! Kudos to Laure and her high level of work ethics, positive attitude and superb people skills ! She is a "priceless" gem and very valuable in the eyes of the customer like myself ! She truly showcases the Hawaii Islands in the "Spirit of Aloha"! Please take a moment from your busy schedule to validate and acknowledge Laure. We need to clone employees like her a 1000 times over - then ALL customers like myself would walk away "very satisfied" ! Mahalo mai kakou to Laure, Cheri and Kayla ... From my very grateful heart ... read more

Decided to finally visit this store on a Saturday at 11:30. For higher end aloha wear you would expect better customer service. Two ladies behind cashier and not one acknowledged us. They were busy talking to another customer. read more

This place is so cute. It's like a little cottage filled with Hawaiian goodness in the middle of Kailua. Ample parking, I've never seen it packed. The store itself is quaint and I guess I've always gone at the right time as it was like I had the whole store to myself. I prefer this store compared to the town one mainly because the customer service here is amazing. As soon as I walked into the store the 2 lovely store associates greeted me and asked if I was just browsing or was looking for something in particular. I showed her a picture of what I was looking for and told her what size and she literally went around the store and got what I was looking for. There were some items not available but she offered to call the town store to see if they happen to have it. On top of that, she gift wrapped all my items for free, it's the little gestures for me. They did say the newer collections are at this store and the older ones are more so at the town store. Best to buy a design you like when it comes out because sizes go fast. read more

This is for customer service. Second time I walked in to the Kailua store within a month and the same workers were there. Not one of them greeted or welcomed me. Nor did they check to see if I was ok. I've been to the town location and they are way more welcoming there. read more

Love their aloha wear! If you're looking for unique tops, dresses, muumuus, and mens wear this is a great place to shop. To get a good selection it's best to go when they introduce a new pattern. The fabric prints are their own and limited so if you can follow them on Instagram you can see when they are released. Once they run out of an item and pattern it's gone. The sizing seems to be off so if you don't find anything in your size try the other sizes. Customer service is great. They try to help with styles and sizes, and will call their other shop in town to check on availability of items. A plus for shopping here is that this shop must be the only place in Kailua that has a lot of parking. read more

Got yelled at by the sales lady for using their handicap parking spot, even if I had my disability parking placard. Large parking lot was mostly EMPTY, had 1-2 cars parked. There was about 15 open spots. There was NO visible signs as you drive in that it was private parking or warnings. I still was planning to buy something cheap from them after lunch next door. This girls frantically runs out of the shop as if there was a major accident. Yells that I can not use their parking. Lotta other ways to say it but she choose to have so much anger. Place visible signs-it's pretty easy or simply walk out and tell me to move. Have some Aloha. Especially for the locals. I noticed all the bad reviews are from the sales ladies treating people rudely. read more

I've been a fan of Manuheal'i for many years. I live on the windward side so the Kailua store has always been my go to store. Loved it when it was by Times, liked it when it first moved across from Kalapawai. Now, with the beautiful new store, I'm not a fan. I agree with the other reviewers. Poor service. They've lost the aloha at Kailua. I'll drive to Punahou. read more

This is such a cute little shop for Hawaiian-designed clothing. The sales staff are super nice and welcoming. Right when I picked up a dress, one of the staff offered to put it into a fitting room for me. They also gift wrapped my items perfectly for a friend. I would highly recommend this spot for a pleasant shopping experience. You'll be leaving with lots of aloha. read more

Found the Kailua location; it has moved around in the past several years but seems to have found a permanent location across from Kalapawai Market in Kailua Town. Lots of parking in their private lot off the street after the Shell station at the corner of Oneawa and Kuulei Road. They are on Hoolai Street. Often have wonderful, original prints and great colors, but when I shop there, they are inevitably low on sizes and often getting ready to unveil a new design. Wish they had more sizes and styles available for those of us that work in town and can't be there for their launch of new designs! Or it would be nice if we could place orders for new designs so that we have a chance of getting correct sizing. BTW, you have to try different styles on because they aren't consistent in size; they might run large or small depending on the style. Best to try a style on to be sure it fits and looks good on you! read more

service has gone down a great deal, used to be one of my favorite stores. both selection and service has suffered too bad read more

Mahalo Nui Loa for the great customer service! I had a great time looking at some of the new styles. I really appreciate all the aloha the girls at the Kailua location have. read more

way too overpriced for polyester. total rip off. I didn't feel comfortable in the shop I felt pressured to buy something. the designs are beautiful but just recreated Hawaiian traditional art. so sad because any beauty gets diminished by the cheap polyester fabric. please become environmental friendly. making money from plastic... not honorable. read more

Wonderfully personable staff! They always make me feel comfortable even though I actually hate shopping for clothes. Lol. But this is my go to place for every special occasion. read more

I walked in and was greeted by the nicest two ladies. The selection of patterns & styles was great. I was able to find a color & design I loved and styles to fit my two daughters, husband, & I for a matching ohana set. They checked to make sure I had all that I wanted or if there were styles they could find at their town store for me. The check out was seemless & pleasant. Overall an great experience. Can't wait to go back for more ohana sets. read more

Great staff, beautiful clothes and an awesome overall shopping experience! Looking for a unique outfit that you will cherish for a long time? Shop Manuhealii :) read more

Manuhealii is a small local store located in Kailua town across the street from Kailua Pub. There is a large parking lot surrounding the little house. I call it a house because the store really looks like a house! When we walked in, we were immediately greeted! The store atmosphere is very warm & comfy! There are home accessories, dressing rooms, and some clothing downstairs. Go up a few steps, and a majority of the clothes are there. I was there to check out the new prints. I grabbed a top and a dress and headed to the dressing rooms. Hubby sat in a chair that was near the door as he waited for me to pick out what I was going to buy. I tried on the dress, but apparently I had lost more weight than I thought (or the dress was made bigger than usual). Emma had come by right when I was about to take it off & leave to look for a smaller size. She offered to grab one size down. YAY! Thank you for letting me stay in the comfort of the dressing room. She was back in a few secs. Guess what? It was still too big. OMG. It's like Emma just KNEW I was going to ask for another size. She was there for the smaller one! That one fit perfectly! Next on to the shirt. Basically, same situation. Too big, needed another size. This time it was the OTHER Emma who was ready to grab another size. Needless to say, these 2 ladies made my afternoon. I walked out of there with the 2 items and a smile on my face! Thanks, Emma & Emma! You will definitely be seeing me again! 13 read more

I bought a dress with stretchy ruffles and it has pockets, but the pockets is way too small for a Womens clothing. It did not feel right cuz my hands could hardly get in. Not comfortable to put my whole hands inside. And that is why I put 3 stars . Great summer colors! For the Future, plz make bigger pockets & bigger dresses where we Womens, don't have to crawl trying on clothes. Most of the clothes for Women size runs very small for Hawaii people. Aloha shirts is no problem! Mahalo read more

They are not as good as they used to be. Loved the old days when they produced classic Hawaiian prints. Some of the prints now dont even look Hawaiian & the fabric they use is terrible. Too stiff for some of the styles. They also run out of sizes too quickly. Their styles are definitely not true to size. read more

The person behind the register didn't have much aloha and she wasn't very helpful. Wanted a couple of different style dresses in a couple of different sizes and she wasn't willing to get them for me, even though I was the only person in the store. She was just not interested in making a sale or me. Make sure you try things on... their sizes are all over the place. I have an XS shirt, a Medium sized shirt and a Large dress. I did buy a dress and some notecards but because everything is so pretty! read more

Arrived 5 minutes before closing at 3:55pm on Saturday and knew exactly what I needed. Granted it was close to closing. As I arrived in the parking lot and closed my car door an employee immediately locked the door knowing that I had just driven in. Now, that is extremely unacceptable for any business. I was still on premises 5 Minute before closing and did not do that on purpose. The employees reluctantly opened the door and gave me a rude look and then asked me you know what you specifically need and I told them. By that point I was already upset and just walked out. This was my first experience at this shop and I am disappointed that this even took place. I really enjoyed the designs and quality of the products as I have many friends of mines who talked so highly of it. I don't think this is acceptable and the employees need to better handle a future situation such as this. It's a very disappointing first experience. I rarely post any negative posts. Oh well. For some reason this really got under my skin. read more

First time visiting this location after following them on Instagram for a while. I went to buy a dress for my daughter's first school picture day. I gave 2 stars for the many prints in keiki dresses, they had a lot more than I anticipated. However, their customer service and overall vibe of the store was very stuck up, and unwelcoming. I definitely felt looked down upon, and they seemed surprised when I bought the dress. I probably won't go back because I enjoy friendly service! read more

I can't remember the last time I bought aloha wear for myself. We're talking 1990s, Liberty House. Possibly Zooper Sale. Needless to say, I was in need of a wardrobe update. With a family picture coming up, I had both a genuine reason to do so along with a spousal understanding that coordinating outfits were on the table. Manuheali'i, here we come! The Kailua location is very cute (that yellow trim!), if a bit impractical. It's basically a cottage-turned-boutique. If you have a wheelchair or stroller, it'll be a tight fit, and for some inaccessible, as most of the clothing is up a short flight of stairs. But you can always ask the staff for help -- and ask you must. I found the customer service to be, well, not unfriendly exactly, but not welcoming either. My general feeling was that I was walking into someone's auntie's house, uninvited, and not particularly wanted. We received (abrupt yet effectual) assistance upon request and it was great that you can have items transferred from the Mo'ili'ili location (and vice versa). Still. For the price point that they're asking, I would hope for a warmer reception. Normally, I would shop online, but the sizing seems to vary from collection to collection, so in-store seems the way to go. At least they have their own parking lot and a wide selection of sizes in every style. I won't be drinking the designer Kool Aid any time soon though since aloha wear just isn't my jam (I am firmly a solid color kind of gal), but I can see how they have a devoted following with their beautiful prints. Until our next family picture op, Manuheali'i. read more

This local favorite clothing designer and manufacturer fills their iconic shirts and outfits with aloha. After designing their own original fabric based on Hawaiian and island sensibility, the owners fashion colorful and unique blouses, dresses and aloha shirts that are suitable for the office, a night out or any special occasion. If you are looking for a stylish, sophisticated local look Manuhealii is your source. read more

I was expecting more from the Kailua store since it is the flagship store. After finally finding the store, I walked in to an empty house. There were 2 women behind the register who pretty much stayed there. I walked around commenting on the merchandise and they responded with grunts. I was itching to buy something but received no help whatsoever. I guess I'll remain a customer at the town store. read more

I absolutely love Manuheali'i but yesterday (08-14-2020), we received the worst customer service ever! This was the first time we dealt with this kind of service at our favorite Kailua store....the 2 young girls were very rude and unwilling to help. read more
