I had no idea this store was even here!…read more On a recent trip to the oceanfront for breakfast I decided to walk the shops up along Laskin and explore. This is where I found the Lemon Cabana. They have some really cute items inside like beach-themed home decor, jewelry, shoes and clothing. I had a parking meter spot so wasn't able to really stay as long as I'd like but I was greeted by a friendly staff member inside and invited to look around, try on whatever I needed and let her know if I needed any assistance. I have a lot of tropical travel for summer coming up and know I could find some great items inside for that trip - I will be back!

If you're shopping around the area, this should definitely be one of your stops.

I walked…read morein after stopping at the Starbucks in the same strip and asked if it was okay to have my drink in there. Fortunately, yes it was, because I had the best time browsing all the home decor, apparel, pet, gift, and sale items. It's a one-stop shop if you're looking to support a local business and purchase some beach-themed gifts near the oceanfront. They also had some great sales going on -- 60% off all fall merch plus 25% off holiday items. I purchased an adorable sea green nutcracker holding a starfish and gift bags. It's way prettier than that description. I also purchased cat nap pajama pants, which I'm wearing right now. They're both comfortable and adorable. Convenient location, high-quality goods, and a delightful experience. I'd return and recommend this shop.

I asked if they'd give me $5 off. An older woman, possibly the manager or owner, didn't look up at all from her paperwork, and gave me a flat NO. I get that they're one of only a few businesses at the beach, so there's an issue of supply and demand. But does it cost them anything to be nice? I don't plan to go back.

The shop is small but packed full of character. The collections of jewelry on sale are unique, plus there's a great selection of gifts and the shop smells amazing - probably because of the candles/diffusers also available for purchase. I definitely recommend popping in if you're looking for something different, or are looking for something related to the Historic Hilton Village - they have the cutest HHV items! Whilst some things can be a little pricey, they are unique and the owner is a total sweetheart, and I'm all about supporting local businesses. Primrose, I've got a total crush on you and am so glad we met. See you soon!

My boyfriend grudgingly stops here, but stays in the car. I, on the other hand, gleefully jump out and head on in. To my delight, there are three couples walking around the gift shop. One couple starts perusing the huge selection of fireworks. The other two couples hovered over the bags of cured bacon sold by the pound (pre-packaged). Intrigued, I too, hover on over to hear what the nice store lady had to say. Seems like this bacon is a big hit in the area. Two couples each walked out with 5-6 bags of it. The other couple and I purchase one (mine was 1.15 lbs for around $10). Looking forward to tossing some of it with pasta, and enjoying it with eggs for breakfast. Oh, and I got a 20 fl. oz. bottle of diet coke for a buck. Woohoo!! Note: this ain't no fancy gift shop. This is just a fun road side joint selling items from bacon to fireworks (to belly lint brushes). Enjoy!

And leave with some money still in your wallet. Or board shorts.
