    Convince yourself to use the elevator

    Ward Village Shops are in a building. Not sure the exact name. Because I was dodging from a rain. I went to T.J. Maxx upstairs and I was amazed with the structure. The building has so many shops that would visit on my next trip to Honolulu.

    If you've been under a rock you'll never recognize Ward Village. Who remembers Yum Yum Tree and the OG Taco Tuesday at Compadres and of course Spaghetti Factory thankfully that's still around further down the street but Ward Warehouse and Ward Centre was home to countless unique shops and restaurants. Constantly reinventing themselves the uniqueness is still fun more than ever...first of all follow them on Instagram @wardvillage to keep up the various on going events. Once a month home to one of my favorites Art + Flea Urban Market just to name a few you'll surely find something very special and as I was strolling around South Shore Market I noticed and elf...!?! Remembering their Elf Scavenger Hunt I found it so humorous to find one, took a photo and post in hopes to win a $100 gift card. Always keeping things fresh for every crowd in the bunch from the bookworm to a movie enthusiast, Kid City to the explorer for the holiday elves take a sip at Happy Lemon and set free of the lemons in life in this cool modern vibe as this shopaholic constantly finds her happy place here! Thank you!

    It was a good small shopping place. I shopped at Mahina and Mori. Such good shops. We also had coffee at Ali's coffee.

    I came here to visit the Ward Center that used to be here. I was very sad to see that's all gone. This little unique set of shops (not really a mall, but some diverse shops connected by an enclosed walk), it's actually very pleasant and peaceful (it's very under utilized). I was a little frustrated at how hard it is to find access, but at the same time the limited access seems to cut down on the derelicts and homeless. This is the best part of the larger Ward Village area.

    Plenty of shops. Some closed.

    This is a cute little spot that reminds me of Town and Country Village in the South Bay. It is a throwback type of place with lots of little shops tucked in among lots of empty spaces. I went to a place where chocolates are sold and the guy in there was really nice. There were some places to eat, but they didn't seem to have seating, so it seemed like a take it and run spot. There was a hair salon and some clothing spots, but walking through was charming. It wasn't crowded, which is good. But the walk through was just what I was looking for and I don't regret coming to see what they had.

    So many great offerings! We love coming here to play games at Dave & Busters, watch a movie in the awesome loungers at Consolidated, grab a bite at Buca's, or and pick up some groceries at Whole Foods. There's also lots to do in addition to the tradition shops. I always keep my eye out for events on Facebook, like free yoga at Victoria Ward Park on Thursday's at 5:30. They've also had food truck events on the weekends and more! The parking under Dave & Busters is hit or miss so I always head over the Whole Foods for parking.

    I love Ward Village they offer something for everyone. Plenty of parking with easy access and so many shops to explore. Parking is free which is a huge plus . Many specialty shops that offer a huge selection of unique merchandise. Then you have your favorites like T.J. Max and Nordstrom. If you are looking for something special for someone special Ward Villages is your answer.

    Parked in Ward Centre last weekend and almost couldn't leave when I wanted to. Check out attached photos. My car is the Acura and notice how I'm evenly spaced between the lines? When I parked the spaces beside me were open but these kooks decided to sandwich me in. Thing is there were quite a few spots open a half floor up. My daughter had to squeeze in through passenger door and climb over to pull the car out so we could get in. Even after that I had to do the Austin Powers forward/reverse thing to leave. Management should seriously think about re-striping the parking lot.

    REVIEW written because somehow, the Ward Village Shops page was merged with Ward Village. The Shops are just PART of this Ward Village Community. During my lifetime as a resident of Honolulu, there are neighborhoods that I've seen flourish as generations change and then there are some neighborhoods that seem to have been neglected or abandoned. One such burgeoning and flourishing community is The Howard Hughes 60-acre parcel known as "Ward Village". Oh, it's not as if Ward Village suddenly came about but it was an acquisition that occurred several years ago (2010) by The Howard Hughes Corporation. Prior to the acquisition, this 60-acre land parcel was owned by the Victoria Ward Estate. Even during the time when the Victoria Ward Estate owned this area, this neighborhood had been studied and planned for redevelopment. But, it wasn't until 2013 when The Howard Hughes Corporation presented and submitted plans for urban development. And what a grand development it will be! The projected plan is to build over 20 condominiums, a community park with outdoor gathering places, walkable pathways, entertainment centers, retail stores and restaurants, in essence, this will be its own community. Phase 1 has already started with 5 new condominiums being built (Anaha, Waiea, Ke Kilohana, Ae'o and Gateway Towers). Sure, to many locals, the prices of the units seem out of reach but, given the current price for a single-family home in urban Honolulu, these prices are comparable. Already existing WITHIN Ward Village are the Ward Village Shops and Restaurants, Ward Village Courtyard and Ward Village Entertainment Center. What I like about this planned (sustainable and energy efficient) community, is their commitment to embracing the local Hawaiian culture. Ward Village is becoming a community for appreciating the island-lifestyle mixed with urban living. I can't wait to see how either living, playing or working in Ward Village will impact our lives. It shows great promise to what understanding urban planning can do to improve our island. It's not going to be another overcrowded Waikīkī skyline. See you there, soon!

    Elevator to get to Nordstrom Rack is def big enough for social distancing!  Yelp shades on cuz my Tory's are MIA...

    I used to enjoy visiting old Ward Warehouse area. Parking was meh. Eateries and shops were pretty good. I even worked as a photographer at a photo studio there back in the day. So I have lots of memories of the area. Now that the old "warehouse" shops are no longer there, in its place is basically open park and parking lot... So moving over to the new side has been a bit of a transition for me. I still visit Dave and Buster and the theater side. The other side with Goma Tei and Piggy Smalls, I don't frequent for some reason. TJ Maxx and Nordstrom Rack are definitely go to shops. The parking garage is good. I don't care for the turning narrow ramps, but luckily I don't have a huge vehicles so maneuvers are just fine. Today was my first time going into the South Shore Market. No idea why I never took a look. I had no idea it was a variety of smaller businesses inside. I ran into the Lucy's Lab Creamery which I've had bookmarked forever. Discovered there's a Coffee Bean. Overall a cutesy, modern, hipster vibe. Too cool and probably too expensive for me lol. I mean, I'll be back to pick up some things. Even though it'll hurt my wallet. I'll update as I expand my adventures around this area!

    I'm a regular here. It's a nice entertainment hub in Kakaako, the next one being SALT. I mean you get a lot in this two block radius, shopping events, movies, Lots of restaurants, Dave and Busters, and whole foods. It's pretty easy to kill time. I was here last Friday for the new Holiday light garden installation, an ocean of hundreds of sound synced lights and Also New Wave Fridays at the south shore market. Always a musical performance, great vendors. Usually once a month. The IBM regularly has art installations as well. Fun area. Lots of parking.

    We enjoyed walking around the Ward Centers. Since this was our first time here, parking was difficult for us to find because we didn't know there were so many parts to this place. After walking around we realized it's not just one big mall, it's made up of different sections. There are plenty of parking spots spread throughout the Ward Centers. They have a large variety of stores and restaurants. There is a movie theatre here as well.

    Nice fountains in the front!
    Nadine C.

    This is a very happening place! There are many types of shops, restaurants, and movie theater! It's like the entertainment center of Honolulu! Victoria Ward Centers continues to expand and change. Nordstrom Rack has moved to the newer building with TJ Maxx and Pier 1. It has its own covered parking garage! There used to be an open parking lot, but now it's under construction and will be another parking garage! We sure could use more parking spaces!

    "One of our absolute FAVES in Oahu!!! "…read more Ala Moana Center is hands-down one of our favorite places to visit every time we're in Hawaii . It's the perfect mix of shopping, food, and island vibes -- and the fact that it's open-air makes it even better . Location & Hours: Super convenient and easy to get to, right between Waikiki and downtown Honolulu Most stores are open around 10am-8pm, but restaurant hours vary (some open earlier or close later ). Parking (the BEST part): FREE PARKING!!! Yes -- totally free self-parking with tons of garages all around the mall. There are so many spots, but it does get busy on weekends, so coming earlier is always a good idea . Performances & Entertainment: They often have free live performances like hula dancing and Hawaiian music at the center stage -- such a fun surprise while shopping and a great way to soak in the culture! Best Restaurants & Food: SO many good options Mariposa - great for a sit-down meal Tanaka of Tokyo - always a fun experience Food court - perfect for quick bites Ruscello / CPK - easy and family-friendly Tons of dessert and coffee spots for shopping breaks You could literally eat here all day . Tips & Tricks: Wear comfy shoes -- this place is HUGE Park near the area you plan to shop or eat Come earlier in the day to avoid crowds Make time to just sit, relax, and enjoy the vibe Final Thoughts: Ala Moana Center is always a must-visit for us . Free parking, amazing food, great shopping, and fun performances -- it never disappoints! Whether you're shopping or just strolling, this place always feels like Hawaii .

High end stores, high end restaurants and other great things like art exhibits. Now that I live in California, I do visit Oahu every two years. At the time when we came here in 2019, we went to a photography exhibit by National Geographic. Now this is something I enjoy. I think tourists could enjoy it too and bring in the modernized look for Waikiki. I have been on the fence about the traditional vendors over these overpriced high end stores. I look at it in a business perspective. Hawaii drives its economy through tourism. We are in the United States of America and you got major cities like New York, Miami, Los Angeles and such. It's competing for more tourists to come to Hawaii. I hate to say this but Hawaii versus Miami? You got people with money that spend at high end stores. People now look at Waikiki like you're shopping on Rodeo Drive. Well if this is what attracts tourists - so be it to help the economy. It is a shame that it has to be this way to survive in this economy. The workers in Waikiki have pride in their job and make an honest living in an expensive state. I do miss the old International Marketplace. It was nice seeing vendors sell things.

    I absolutely love walking around Waikiki, and honestly, I don't think I spend enough time here. I…read morereally should. If you're coming to this area, just be prepared to walk. Parking can be tough, and Uber is usually the easiest way to get around if you're hopping between spots. I've parked at the Honolulu Zoo before and walked everywhere I wanted to go, which works... until I get a little lazy and tired . I do wish they offered some kind of bike, scooter, or cart experience to make getting around easier. Full transparency: this review is coming from someone who isn't super fit, so walking can be tiring but despite that, I absolutely love the experience here. The nightlife is so fun, the live music is always a vibe, and I love the bubbles floating around at night. I enjoy wandering into shops to window shop (and sometimes actually buy things), and yes, I still smile every time I see a bunch of ABC Stores lined up. I fell in love with them when I first moved here. I don't come around as often anymore since I live on the west side of the island, but whenever I'm in the area, I really enjoy it. Walking around, taking pictures, seeing the beach, and just playing tourist never gets old.

    "I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore..." ―…read more Mark Twain, on Oahu/Hawaii Waikiki Beach Walk on Lewers Street is delightful. 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.

    Who's down wid' DEALAGES???…read more Bruddah Fran is gonna be generous & share da 411 with ya. Did ya know on Oahu we actually have an outlet mall? If you're interested in looking to DEALAGES, just head on down to the Westside (in the Waipahu area) because the Waikele Premium Outlet stores is there! There are so many stores here, so when you do visit the Waikele Premium Outlet, hopefully you'll find a store that will appeal for you. As for me, a few of my favorite stores I like to visit is - the Lowe's hardware store, Reyn Spooner, & the Van's shoe store. Beside shopping, the outlet mall also has restaurants, a small food court, & numerous food trucks in the parking lot so finding something yummy to eat shouldn't be too hard. Parking here is a breeze, as the outlet mall has ample parking. If you don't have a car, I noticed a lot of tourist would catch a shuttle to this outlet mall. I guess you just gotta do your homework to see the transportation options before coming down here. Here's a link of the Waikele Outlet Mall - https://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlet/waikele/stores
