The perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of commercialized Waikīkī. Glowing tiki torches, it captures my every step. Curiosity takes hold of me as my eyes gaze towards wooden kiosks. They're closely knit, all selling a hodge-podge of brick-a-brac island-style pieces geared towards tourists. A jumbled assortment of curiosities, memorabilia and trinkets of remembrance. Cheap shell leis, carved wooden tikis, jewelry of all sorts, handmade items. Displays of bright Aloha attire and accessories complete the shopping experience from stores along the perimeter. Vendors chatting, laughter in the distance. A comforting hum, a laid-back vibe. Unpretentious and deeply welcoming. All centered around a grand, massive 100+ year old banyan tree. Balanced on urban living, it was a connection to the social fabric of Honolulu. Nostalgic, charming, extremely unique. This was the original International Marketplace in Waikīkī. From 1956 to 2013. I remember it vividly. Do you? ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ I grew up coming to this open-air marketplace. Eclectic shops and a food court. This place had personality, charm, island-style warmth. I frequented this spot from childhood into young adulthood when traveling from the Big Island of Hawai'i and during my university days at Mānoa. Memories with my family as a kid, with my college friends many years later. Having a quick meal as an adult at the International Marketplace food court while employed in Waikīkī. It was a spot for cheap eats in a relaxed setting. I've watched musical diva and Hawai'i legend, Melveen Leed perform many times. My parents still remember watching Don Ho here. At the original International Marketplace back in the day. Precious memories. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Now it's a blend of fresh air and natural light on three floors. Polished, refined with modern touches. Still offering a lively yet sweet escape with a fluid layout and an unconfined atmosphere. Reimagined and reopened in 2016. Home to major brands and unique local boutiques. A shopping and dining destination. Exhibits and the century-old banyan tree trace the rich heritage of Waikīkī. Entertainment welcomes visitors and kama'aina like myself to this gathering place. I've dined multiple times on the third floor Grand Lānai. Featuring chef-driven restaurants and local cuisine. Casual food concepts line the Kūhīo Avenue Food Hall on the first floor. Breakfast, lunch or dining under the stars. There's something for everyone. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Since reopening in 2016 after a three-year construction phase, I've returned back a handful of times to the International Marketplace. Do I miss the version I grew-up with? Of course. But I understand why redevelopment was sought. It's prime real estate in the heart of Waikīkī. Physical expansion and a multi-million dollar modernization to capture high spending visitors as tourism and revenue shifts in Hawai'i. Honestly, I've shopped and dined at this modern version of the International Marketplace more times than the one I grew up with. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Revisit the International Marketplace like I have and embrace the transformed landscape. As it evokes deep sentimental meaning, a bittersweet clash of cherished history and modern progress. Take a photo by the iconic century-old banyan tree. Become lured by local boutiques along with luxury ones. Relax, shop, dine or people watch while taking in the view. Here, it's not just about spending money, it's about spending time. A space for everyone to create new memories.

On the first floor, you will find quite a few small boutiques that carry some awesome items. Some standout shops include Salvage Public (which is a Kanaka Maoli-owned apparel store), Shop Keiko (which carries some exclusive Active by Teal pieces in addition to jewelry and Port + Paws items), Yireh x Mahinamade (more apparel including popular lei shirts in addition to dresses, aloha shirts, and more Active by Teal pieces), BikiniBird, and House of Mana Up (which carries a variety of stock including food stuffs, beauty products, dog treats, clothing, and bags all from local brands). You might find that some of the products are on the pricier end, but in my opinion the value is worth it because you are supporting local businesses and the quality of most pieces is excellent. Also connected to the shopping center are Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf as well as the best TJ Maxx I've ever been to and a 2-floor Nordstrom Rack where I've had a lot of success finding brand name items and great prices. I have never had an issue with service at South Shore Market; everyone is so kind and helpful that it makes the shopping experience even that much better. If you are looking for a more chill, relaxed shopping experience compared to Ala Moana, then South Shore Market is the place for you!

Ward was originally marketed as a pet friendly area but it doesnt seem like it really is anymore…read more I feel really bad for the people who pay so much to live around this area and ended up with broken promises in the end. some areas seem a lot more dirtier and stinkier than others only because of the lack of grass and i think small patches would at least help so our pets have space to relive themselves other than the concreate floor or walls. it's also a shame that the ward shops is closing down for another new condo. i really loved all the cute little shops that was in there, but it'll just be another giant apartment building that most locals aren't able to afford to live in. this review is mainly for the newer parks that was built near dean and deluca and the one across the street. yes, it is beautiful but i think it would be nice for them to at least make an exception to allow dogs on them on it when they throw events on those particular lawns. There was this poor lady in front of me that tied up her dog on the poles (but in eye distance). It's so hot out right now and the risk of overheating or even kidnapped is a possibility. I could never do that and leave my dog tied up even if its 10 steps away because it could just take seconds for my sweet simba to be stolen. However, they don't seem to mind if you carry them or have them contained in something like a bag tho, but i think thats a little unfair for people who have larger dogs and can't do this. I also did not realize that the park across with the bridge also doesnt allow dogs on the grass, but it seemed like it just recently happened when the newer park re-opened. I think maybe a good solution is to add more trash cans around and maybe doggy bags like other communities that allow pets instead of hiring security to enforce pet owners to stay off the grass. Please don't punish the pet owners that are responsible but come up with a solution that there can be at least a happy medium for everyone.

Our hotel was situated on Lewers Street and I greatly enjoyed being on such a bustling street with good eats, high-end shopping, and lots of art & culture. They even have a free art gallery, frequent pop-ups of booths that sells local goods, and other fun and free entertainment. What really stood out to me was how easy it is to just wander here. No strict plan needed. One minute you're browsing locally made jewelry or handcrafted souvenirs, and the next you're drawn in by live music drifting through the open-air walkways. It feels lively without being overwhelming, like the perfect balance of energy and ease that Waikiki does so well. It also has that effortless day-to-night transition. During the day, it's bright, breezy, and great for a casual stroll or a quick bite between beach time. By evening, the whole area softens into something a little more magical: Music, people lingering longer, and the gentle breeze giving your nighttime stroll that movie magic. It's the kind of place where you say, "just one quick walk," and somehow end up staying for hours.
