The space looks shiny and clean, the wood floors gleaming. We had dinner at Garden Island Grille next door tonight and spent a few minutes beforehand exploring Koloa Trading Post. It was notable for its interesting and appealing merchandise and the absolute unfriendliness of the young woman who was working there tonight. Alan and I wandered through for 5 or 10 minutes looking over the merchandise. We were not acknowledged, nor were any of the other customers who wandered through, as far as I could tell. There are hats and aloha shirts, interesting decorative and functional ceramics, funny socks and oven mitts w/ funny and vulgar sayings.. There are t-shirts and jewelry and other items. We left and went next door to put our name in at the restaurant. The wait was about 30 minutes. Alan saw an attractive long sleeve t-shirt in the interior window facing the hallway to the restaurant. Because he liked it we went back. I thought it was for him, but it was a woman's style and he was thinking it would be for me. I liked it and decided to buy it. He gave me his credit card and I took the shirt to the front desk where the young woman had been helping another customer, who seemed to be making a return. I handed her the shirt and she asked if that was all I wanted. Yes. She rang me up, folded the shirt carelessly and put it in the smallest bag possible. Whoever owns this store has nice taste in merchandise, but needs to hire staff who are more outgoing and helpful. I'm not particularly demanding, but I do expect to be acknowledged when I'm in a store. The 4 stars are for the merchandise.

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

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!!

(Visited 04/24/26 FR @ 5:00pm and 04/25/26 SA @ 1:00pm): This old town was cool like a koala!…read more Old Kōloa Town was an original plantation-era shopping village in the heart of historic Kōloa Town, which I came upon while I explored the area, the shops, and specifically Mucho Aloha Brewhouse. Kōloa Town was the home of Hawai'i's first successful sugar mill, so this quaint outdoor shopping emporium catered to this important time in history to try and meld the two times and worlds together. Otherwise a sleepy town, Old Kōloa Town attracted visitors and tourists for its smattering of businesses that ranged from art galleries, local souvenirs, restaurants, and more. Did this old town hold enough coolness to warrant future returns!? PURCHASE(S) Mucho Aloha Brewhouse ($98.00): My mandatory visit to a nearby brewery. Mango's ($16.00): Some dessert onsite and also something for later. Kaua'i Island Brewing Co. ($87.00): My first experience while in town, it was so nice I went twice! EXPERIENCE A slow-paced town where my legs casually led me along the main road and pathways as I stepped into one storefront after another https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=WqrC5FX_CFg_bHOJm2Yn5Q to see what was inside possibly for that must-have gift or something to be wowed by. I gave the respect each business deserved, admired and held their wares in some cases, curiously people-watched, and eventually was a patron at one specific business within the Old Kōloa Town shopping complex as well as two other nearby businesses in town. Iconic roosters https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=G1mYSbhamHS-3nlBBlMmzw roamed everywhere (please don't feed them), and the gentle wind blew against me as I stood waiting for the bus to take me back to my hotel. SERVICE Generally speaking, all of the employees I came in contact with were friendly and helpful. The only business I actually spent money and time at was Mucho Aloha Brewhouse, and the service was efficient and straightforward. PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): I took the bus, so this wasn't an issue for me. Otherwise, there appeared to be some onsite parking with spots along the main drag of Koloa Rd. and other side streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A cluster of businesses divided into buildings paired with other non-associated stores and food trucks in town, you had various options that helped separate you from your money, from art, clothing, restaurants, trinkets, and more. Each shop had its distinct feel, but the overriding theme was the Hawaiian aloha spirit. Each storefront had plenty of natural lighting while various electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. TVs and background music (if applicable) varied by merchant. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=QQmaC7rAXbteMyjTfkSJ3g ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Old Kōloa Town - both the shopping complex and the actual town - was a lot of fun and I would definitely visit it if I were in the area. There were still many places to spend my money, the vibe was totally chill, and I could possibly spend an entire day just putzing around. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $201.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, at least the stores I shopped at accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

She has a desire to share the beautiful vibrations of the singing bowls as well as the healing crystals located around the store. If at first you're scared to walk in because of the "do not touch- fragile" signs, just do it. Once you walk in you find that although the signs are there to deter, it doesn't take away from the sharing and some what healing experience of hearing Crystal play. Being an owner of crystal and metal singing bowls, I appreciated learning different techniques and about vibrational healing beyond the bowls themselves- we talked about the vibrational healing properties of gongs and even the energy centers of heiaus throughout the islands. Will definitely be back to visit as well as purchase. PS- she has an awesome cd so if the bowls themselves are out of your price range you can still experience the beauty and healing of their vibrations in your car or at home.

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.

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.
