    Super cute ornaments and a large selection of olukais to choose from - literally exactly what we were looking for when we walked in! Super nice lady working the cashier too, will definitely be back for family Christmas presents

    Love it!

    This store is a must go place in Honolulu, everything made in Hawaii. Visiting here for the best memories

    So many different wooden pieces!

    Island sole has tons of footwear as well as the perfect customizable Hawaii souvenir or gift by a brand named CocoNene! This shop is located on the ground level outside of the ground level food court. Although it's a little pricey, I love my souvenir to commemorate our wedding anniversary in Hawaii! You choose a wooden longboard base size, fill it up with wooden letters, characters, photo frames, plant decor, or animals. There are so many to choose from! The base itself says "made in Hawaii" and the decor is all Hawaii / tropical themed. The base I purchased which was the biggest one along with 9 separate pieces cost almost $70, but no regrets! The letters and icons that are placed into the longboard base are NOT stable or permanently placed into it unless you glue it yourself. It should definitely be in a sturdy place and kept away from children. You can keep changing up the design if you get a bunch of different pieces. The friendly staff member thanked me for shopping local and I'll definitely be back to make more for loved ones!

    Island Sole sells footwear but what brought me to the store were their cute made in Hawaii souvenirs made of wood. They have these fun build your own longboard letter sets where you can choose a picture frame and add letters or character attachments. The employee named Naomi was incredibly nice and fun to work with. She helped us with the longboard pieces and was so patient with us. I told her where we were heading after shopping at Ala Moana and she gave us some helpful traffic tips for getting around the island.

    My choice

    I love this shop! If you are looking for unique Made in Hawaii souvenirs, this is the shop you must check! It was like a puzzle , I picked a small surfboard base first. Then I tried so many items to put in the slots. I chose these 3 items, then, I tried different color items.... The sales person gave me an advice if I need! I also got Christmas ornaments. She put each of them in a gift bag with different background paper! She checked color of ornament, then picked perfect match background paper. She was awesome! It's located near the center stage, mountain side. Those 4 items I got was little over $50, so the gift box was free (as of 9/14/2023).

    Obsessed!! Got a bunch of adorable Christmas gifts here. Customized on a wooden board with names/initials and other little trinkets. I seriously spent over an hour in here and could've spent all day lol. Totally recommend for gifts.

    Really cool local artists made picture frames super unique and beautiful!

    Beautiful artwork made by local artist definitely worth checking out if you're looking for unique local functional art.

    Rita, supervisor said she didn't give me a hard time? Really when you don't give the customer what…read morethey want cause the CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT! " I came the other day to return a Christmas present my daughter received! The sales clerk would not give my a merchandise credit even it was clearly a SOHA Living item marked $35.80 with NO red line! She said since I did not have a gift receipt or know my daughters girlfriends name so they could look it up, there was Nothing she could do!!! Really? I asked for the supervisor/manager! That's when Rita came to the counter, again asking me all those same questions that I didn't know! Why should it matter?? I have your merchandise, not marked down!! Plus, I showed her a 1/2 page advertisement that was in the newspaper stating "After Christmas SALE up to 70% off". I had come in on 12/26 and there were only signs of 50% off! When I asked, what was 70% off, the girl at counter said it was online! But she couldn't find anything online that was 70% off! So very misleading! FALSE ADVERTISING!! So when Rita said she had to call her manager, I told her to ask about the ad! Well, Rita returns and finally gives me a gift card for $35.80. No tax? I'm sure all my credits have included the tax!! Also, she didn't talk to anyone and just decided to do " the right thing" But claimed she did not give me a hard time! I really like this store and appreciate 2 sisters who went to Punahou started this business and SoHa Keiki but will have to think twice on patronizing them because of the bad customer service! Please note that I gave this business a 5 Star Review on 4/18/2018! Wow, how much has changed in those 6 years! So sad!!

    No visit to HI is ever complete without a visit to my favorite store. Last year we were in Maui and…read morethis year in Oahu. The brand is consistent. Stores are organized and just oh so cool! I get some of the gifts to bring back home for friends from SOHA.
