The actual Surf N Sea store has SO MUCH stuff...clothes, swimwear, flip flops, and more. They even sell water and sodas. Plus, they have a bathroom. Not sure if it's for everyone, but they offered it to us she once we were going to kayak. The service in here is great too!

This location is rich with history, and it's befitting that this little antique shop is sitting in the middle of an area that goes back in time. I am old enough to remember the Waialua Sugar Mill burning cane back in the 90's as I drove to Mokuleia Beach and seeing black debris of flying burnt sugar cane drift across my car windshield, along with smoke. The mill closed down in 1996 then became abandoned over time, then opened back up with new shops and little local stores, like this one. It's a very tiny store, no bigger than a small studio, but has a variety of really nice antiques crammed with vintage Pyrex, glassware, clothing, Pan-Am bags, hat boxes, costume jewelry, and anything else you care to explore. The owner Etsuko is super friendly and we spent a while discussing vintage clothing, barware, jewelry and the finer things that were important in life in the days when things were meant to last and not fall apart after a season of use. I'm already wondering when I can go back to visit, as I had a great time there. The hours vary, so call before you go at (808) 778-5332.

Whatever your size, shape or color preference, they have it! Men and women's bathing suits and casual attire, too.

Unfortunately, the customer service was very disappointing. My wife and I visited the store while…read moreshe was looking for some shirts, but not a single staff member greeted us or offered to help. The employees seemed irritated, avoided making eye contact, and didn't create a welcoming atmosphere. This store is in a high traffic tourist area, so providing friendly and welcoming customer service should be a priority. A simple greeting or offer of assistance goes a long way and can make a big difference in a customer's experience. I hope the staff receive additional customer service training, as a more positive and attentive approach would benefit both customers and the business.

Jake on the Pyzel sales team has provided truly exceptional customer service. He consistently goes…read moreabove and beyond, exceeding my expectations every time. Over the past year, I've purchased four surfboards from Pyzel online. Unfortunately, my most recent online order arrived with a couple of issues: some blemishes on the custom board and an incorrect tail pad. Jake handled everything quickly and professionally, and he went out of his way to make it right--far beyond what I expected. It's easy for a company to look good when everything goes smoothly. What really matters is how they respond when something goes wrong. In that moment, Pyzel (and Jake in particular) absolutely delivered. They turned a frustrating situation into an experience that strengthened my trust in the brand, and I'll continue buying from Pyzel for as long as I'm surfing.

Note: With exception to the tail and writing on the Stringer, this review is not based on the…read morequality and craftsmanship of Pyzel Boards, it is more based on the communication and customer service which leads to the final product. I phoned in November 2019 and was told I would need to give Pyzel a two to three week lead time on the construction of my custom order. This was good news as I was still undecided about the shape and glass. Phoned back a few days into December and was told by Riley the previous time frame quote was highly inaccurate. He stated I needed to pay 50.00 to make sure the board was done on January 12th (Sunday). As I understand things happen and people are sometimes wrong, I processed the payment and agreed the 12th would be the pick up date. Fast forward to January 12th... plane landed and prior to going to Honolulu, we rented an SUV and drove to Pyzel on the North Shore to grab the board as promised and paid for.. when we arrived the shop was closed. The website and yelp said the shop was open 7 Days a week. These were the hours when I was in town in October. 100+ dollars later for the rental, tired from the flight, really did not want to deal with shop politics. I went over to the Waialua Surf Shop as I purchased two boards from them in November and remember them having some friendship tie to Pyzel. I asked the shop if there is any one around who could grab my board for me. The kid at the Waialua Surf Shop phoned his father, and got the shop open for a min. Bottom line, nobody wants to be that guy who bothers people, everyone just wants what they pay for and what is promised.. I absolutely hate putting people out, even if I am in the right. Bums me out when there are negative vibes as soon as I am gearing up to relax and enjoy my break away from life. Unfortunately this we not the end, when you custom order a surfboard as most know you can have an inscription put on the board. I always put dates and locations of where I got them. Learned this later on in life as I wish I had kept all the skateboards and snowboards I had throughout the years. As we all know these boards travel all over the world with us, it's nice to have memories. When I was given my board I felt very rushed. I have had custom longboards sent through mail that got better communication and service. The inscription I requested was not put in the board. The excuse I got was, someone in the shop said it did not need to be on there.. why ask if you are not going to honor the request. It does not stop there.. I custom order the board to have a round tail.. as in the photo I attached this is a squashed tail, or at best a rounded square! Definitely not round! Pink Sheet clearly says round.. Why not call and say can we just put your last name because we don't have 2 Seconds to write North Shore 2020. Or sorry we forked up and made you the board with a squashed tail, you will love it.. Why not a call saying don't make the drive, we will be closed on the 12th due to shop shortages on employees. Why not offer me a partial refund or anything at all, even a sticker... lol for the multiple moments of "thanks for the business, however we don't really care about you or if you return". Jon ended up texting and offering to talk, I however am not interested in why I was treated poorly, so "sorry" these days does not work anymore. Sometimes you have to actually show you care about your customers. If I decide to order from them again in July or November, I will update this review to reflect future business dealings. However at the moment this is the best I can give. If you want a good quality board, and you are a paying customer you may want to look at other quality made boards, they are out there. Pyzel, makes a great board, but when they are making it, they don't read the pink sheet clearly. They will give you 75% of what is promised, but at full price!!!

They also sell sea shells, pipes and some hand made jewelry as well. I come here for their acai bowls! I honestly believe they are the best on the island. They can be a bit pricey at $8.25 to start and it comes with bananas, granola and honey. You can add on additional fruit for a dollar and they have bees pollen as a topping as well. The size of the bowl is like a big ramen so you get a lot for your money. The staff is usually really nice, local folks. I love coming here after the beach on a hot day for my acai fix!
