Unfortunately, our experience here was uncomfortable and disappointing. My parents and I stopped by…read moreover the weekend hoping to find some gifts for friends. As soon as we walked in, one of the staff members gave us a long, uncomfortable stare that she didn't break even though there were other shoppers in the store as well. She approached us shortly after and asked if we needed help, which we politely declined. However, instead of moving on, she continued to watch us closely the entire time, making us feel singled out and unwelcome. We had no intention of doing anything wrong--we simply came in to browse and support a local business. It's sad and frustrating to be treated in a way that made us feel judged and uncomfortable. This is not the experience we expected or deserved.... Definitely NOT coming back .

Beautiful products as gifts, such as necklaces, books, hats, cultural crafts, handmade gifts, unique jewelry, locks, bags, pouches, art, souvenirs, etc. Great value. Good service next door. Views are spectacular inside and outside. Small narrow space, but perfect for a unique gift shop. Decent value. Shop ends at the stairwell in back. Highly decorated at every shelf and angle. I really liked all the colorful items and designs I see. There's definitely variety here, especially if you want to buy a specific gift for someone. Next door is also an art gallery boutique. Beautiful place with beautiful vibes. Must love. I like browsing around the store whenever I'm waiting for my coffee and pastries or breakfast sandwich next door. Friendly and welcoming environment with lots of great things to see. I will definitely revisit in future.

Roberto engraved a wooden bread plate for my son's wedding. It is English Walnut. I had a very…read morespecific idea what I wanted engraved and it included a statement written on a circle. He suggested to put some meaningful symbol in the middle. I loved the idea. He sent me multiple suggestions regarding the symbol and the font of the letters, until I was completely satisfied. He finished his work within 24 hours. When I picked up the plate it looked absolutely gorgeous. Roberto was very easy to work with. His communication by phone and text was prompt and clear. He has very high standards for his work and lets you know if he thinks that something cannot be done. I highly recommend his business.

I hated this place. It has nice things, but they are so expensive that it made me mad. Now, I…read moreexpected that things would be expensive, I mean it's a gift shop for tourists (i.e., things will be overpriced) and at Big Sur (i.e., an area where everything is overpriced). But if you look at something in this gift shop, and think about what would be an overpriced price for it, and then double that, then you'll almost be at the price for it. Like there was this tiny little jar of local salt that was about the size of a thimble, and I thought oh that's cute, maybe that would be a nice souvenier, and then it was either $17 or $19 when I looked at the price. I mean it was tiny!! I mean, it was the kind of thing that should be like $3, but I thought gift shop so probably $7 or $8, but no, more than double that. Things were crazy expensive, and the more I looked at things, the more it just pissed me off, and took away from the experience of even just looking at nice things without intention to buy. It made me want to leave the store. I've never had a feeling like that in any touristy gift shop I've ever been to in my life, not anywhere in the US including other coastal areas of CA, not overseas. It was also not friendly while you are browsing, nor welcoming when you walk in. I would not go here again, and I would not recommend it to friends.
