Shopping in Ka Makana Ali'i in Kapolei, O'ahu, Hawai'i... While strolling through this open-air mall, I was passing by 2B Desired and was curious about their merchandise. Inside, the store is clean, bright, and well-organized! There were a lot of cute clothes (like shorts, pareos, swimsuits, rompers, sweat pants, and more), tote bags, accessories, etc. There were convenient dressing rooms, Instagram-worthy sofa and backdrop opportunity, and efficient, busy staff. I didn't know that this shop is so popular! The trendy, local styles might seem to appeal more towards younger customers or families who are looking for matching outfits! read more

Sorry I don't have pics of the store itself, I didn't want to take pics of people without consent so I took a pic of the photo opt they have lol. First time I came into the store, seen some of their stuff online so I wanted to check it out. Service is the best, the ladies were very helpful finding sizes for us and checked on us to see if we were ok. Lots of different styles and sizes of clothing as well as other items like umbrellas, bags and other accessories. Price was reasonable too, some local companies can be pretty expensive. Go check them out at Ka Makana Ali'i! read more

2B Desired - Swimwear Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

I've been wanting an Eden Monokini in my size so I stopped by in person to buy, since it's sold out online. Wasn't able to get it in my size either in store :( but I was able to get a ulu army monokini instead! Honestly I think everything is fairly priced. Most one pieces especially local brands are in the $150+ range. But my purchase before tax was $98. And their material is really great. Also the 3 girls working at around 12pm today, greeted us as soon as we walked in. One of them came up to me very quickly asking if I needed anything and was very helpful. They were all really sweet! Great customer service! But pleaseee restock the eden monokini so I can buy read more

My wife and I went to this store looking for something to wear for a wedding. We were highly satisfied with the awesome service that we received from the wonderful staff! These wonderful ladies were highly knowledgeable and helpful. We were very happy with our purchase! We would definitely return and also recommend to others! Mahalo ladies! Wishing you a very prosperous 2026! Mahalo, Mahalo, mahaaaalo! read more

The quality of the swimsuit is excellent. We did not have the best experience with one of the workers when we purchased but since then the follow up customer service has been great. I feel comfortable recommending this store because they will address concerns immediately. read more

2B Desired - Perfect suit for jumping off rocks - Swimwear Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

The customer service was amazing! Every other store before was not welcoming, did not acknowledge me or anyone in my party. As soon as we entered 2B Desired every single worker greeted us and asked if we needed help with anything. To the sweet girl that helped my mom, thank you! From helping her get the right size to telling her how to care for it. Customer service is everything, mahalo ladies! read more

great service, but there is one alarming matter... the cameras on the ceiling are pointed into the dressing rooms! do not allow your wahines to try on in there. My daughter and I walked out. read more

Ive been in this store many times, But the most recent time drove me away. I came in looking for a gift, and couldn't help but hear a girl with a name tag that said Iwalani, talking very terribly about another associate, to another associate. I couldn't see her name tag, but i've seen her working there often. It was obvious that it was about another worker and not just someone else. I was really hoping to get a gift for my sister in law. But hearing that drove me away and I don't know that I will be shopping there again because of it. I own a business, and i do not tolerate that type of energy amongst my team. It didn't seem like she had any place to talk as she(and the other associate) didn't even pursue me when i walked in and stood behind the counter the whole time. read more

Staff was amazing, store was clean, Desiree is the best, they had a variety of styles & sizes to choose from & the quality is amazing read more

My #1 place to shop for my swimwear and then some! I love how Des takes so much time in creating family friendly pieces. I love a good Matchy Matchy! Annnnddd the staff has always been super friendly and inviting. They are always willing to help out. No matter if it's looking for specific styles, reaching the cute kini all the way at the top, or helping you style a piece for your body type. 10/10 I'll always recommend! read more

Worst experience in a store ever and never returning. Went to fitting room to try on and as I'm changing the worker rips the door open for everyone to see. Claims she didn't know I was in there but was the one who just let me in there a couple minutes ago. Disgusting and rude. Turns out as well that the fitting room lock is broken so anyone can open it which is a complete violation of privacy. Then as I'm checking out proceeds to not give me the sale price and makes me pay regular price. Can't believe the treatment I recieved in this store and will for sure not be returning. I try my best to support this store but this was the most bizarre experience in a store ever. Be aware. read more

I don't even know where to start. I'm so happy they finally made a in-store location and not only online. Employees are very helpful and good attitude, great customer service all around. So many selections on bathing suits, one thing I even love about them they have children sizes from babies to big kids. Very cute, they also have other things they sell. Like a one stop shop especially for matching mama and keiki sets or even just sibling sets all for a good pricing and the material is everything. So much good stuff here. I recommend checking them out at ka makana mall!!!! So much goodies to come read more

It was my first time at the Ka Makana Ali'i mall to get my one piece bathing suit drop from 2BDesired & let me say I was so excited to be in that store because all of the variety of styles Desiree had & I was so honored to actually see her in her shop. (it made my heart drop) just because of how far she came with her business. Love the employees, super friendly & very knowledgeable. Can't wait to return to Oahu to see her shop again read more

The material for the swimsuit and active wear, are AMAZING! Definitely worth the money! Also, I bought the new active Chloe rompers, when I got it in the mail, it was too tight for me. Without me knowing the tag fell off and I know to exchange it, the tag must be on... When I went into the store today 9/21/2024 they still let me exchange it to a bigger size. The workers are so friendly as well. I already bought so much items from here! definitely buying more!! read more

I love coming here. I was always so hesitant to buy a new bikini due to my lack of self confidence but the people who work at 2BDesired were so kind! Nat helped me pick out the best bikini & ALWAYS hyped me up whenever I tried on something new! The environment is a very safe and joyful place. They also have a nice range of sizes for their clothes and bikinis! I always struggled finding a bikini that would fit my body due to other brands running small on their sizes but their sizes here are spot on :)! And let's talk about PRICES! Their clothes and bikinis are of high quality (with really cute designs) and I love that they are affordable! read more

This store has one of the best customer service! From the moment I walked in the store I was greeted and the workers were very hands on. Although they didn't have the items in stock , I knew I would be back just because it was a great first experience. A second time I went in, they were all busy with customers, but they still made an effort to greet me and let me know if the help was needed they were available. read more

Heck yes! I drove an hour just to snatch the bikini I've been waiting for. I ended up getting a matching set for my son and daughter . After having kids, there's some areas you don't want to show but I love how Desiree created bikinis that makes you look cute and feel confident. Makes me feel happy again in a bikini! Will definitely be coming back! The girls were very sweet and helpful! read more

Shopped at this store a couple of days ago and needed help finding sizes for my son and daughter to match me. The employees were so attentive and helpful! They were very knowledgeable with their products and in the end, they were able to help me walk out with the cutest matching swimsuits for my ohana. Shout out to Chelsey who helped me through the whole process (props to the other employee who was just as knowledgeable and friendly, just wasn't able to catch her name) Definitely recommend stopping by this local owned shop read more
