The Koloa Trading Post moved in the space vacated when Paradise Clothing closed. I'm not sure how…read morelong they've been open. If they have a website I couldn't find it online. 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.

JJ ohana is a small family run business located in Hanapepe, Kauai. It's a fun little store with…read morelots of souvenirs, hats, T-shirts and they specialize in all things, Lilo &Stich! Brian was working today and was very personable. Found some great Lilo &Stich souvenirs!

My grandma's family is from west Kaua'i and we visit each summer so I'm familiar with Hanapēpē, but…read moreI recently visited JJ Ohana for the first time on a whim. We got there ~30 minutes before closing and I mostly wanted to check out their Ni'ihau shell lei, as they remind me of my grandma. They have a variety of lei, bracelets, and earrings and also offer repair services. I thought this was going to be a place run by non-locals like some of the other souvenir shops tend to be but was pleasantly surprised that the owners have deep roots in west Kaua'i too. We ended up talking story for a long time! Very friendly folks. They are one of the few places that sell certified Ni'ihau shell jewelry and provide you with a certificate so that you know your purchase is legitimate. Ni'ihau shell jewelry is the only jewelry specifically protected by the Legislature of the State of Hawai'i (H.B. No. 2569 passed in 2004), though unfortunately, many sellers still try to pass off any kine shell jewelry as Ni'ihau. To someone unfamiliar, the pieces may seem overpriced but the process to gather/clean the shells (which can only be found on Ni'ihau!) and make the jewelry are painstakingly meticulous. The prices are related not just to the number of shells involved but the qualities of the individual shells (colors, shapes, shine, etc.) It's important to support these talented, hardworking artisans and help ensure that this practice continues to be passed down. The shop also sells other types of jewelry and items (ex: wood carvings) that you wouldn't typically find at most other souvenir shops, in addition to common things like postcards and magnets, so I would still recommend stopping by if you've already been to a souvenir shop in Līhu'e or Kapa'a for example. They also sometimes attend craft fairs in other places to specifically sell Ni'ihau shell jewelry (ex: Made in Hawai'i Fest on O'ahu) so keep an eye out for them, even if you're not on Kaua'i!
