I'm lucky to have cross paths with beautiful Kauai. My previous visit was over 25 years ago. Yes,…read morethose times I remembered were filled with driving around the island with lots of sugar canes. It's good to know, even with small shopping centers in certain areas, it still doesn't take away the beauty and lushness of the mountains, trees, and the ocean. This shopping center carries the necessities and some luxuries if you choose to partake. Some of the shops: Safeway-pick up some groceries and snacks Starbucks-morning coffee Health food store-pick up something healthy to eat and try their sample tastings Abc stores-tourist souvenirs Subway-sandwich to go-for the beach Jewelry store-something for yourself or lover Stop by and take a look for yourself! It's coveniently located close to where I stayed. :)

Stopped here to grab lunch and stock up on snacks. Lots of great stores including Safeway, Ross,…read moreABC Store, Subway, Starbucks, Panda Cuisine, and so much more! They have a good mix of completely predictable chains (so that you don't lose your mind from trying all new things) to locally owned businesses (so you don't lose your soul from selling out to the corporate machines.) We got lunch at Subway, stopped in at Starbucks, ABC Store and Ross. Yes, we are total corporate chain sell outs and I am completely ashamed of myself. Tomorrow I make the commitment to buy my coffee from a local hipster coffee shop that only single origin pour overs from a responsible fair trade grower, buy all my produce from a farmers market, go to Goodwill and buy used clothing so I create less waste, and get my takeout from a mom 'n pop restaurant who sources 40% of their product from local organic growers. Who am I kidding? I'll just start with the coffee and we'll see how it goes from there...

Pit stop on the Island of Kauai…read more.. On the way to the Kilauea Lighthouse (on the North Shore of Kauai), my penpal pointed out this landmark. I didn't realize how important it would be later on... Kong Lung Market Center has historic significance to this part of the island. It is about a 40 minute drive from the Lihue Airport...and a longer drive with traffic (especially because many roads are only one lane wide). After visiting the Kilauea Lighthouse, my penpal mentioned Kong Lung Market Center again and pulled into the parking lot. We walked past several vendors and shops (which weren't open yet since it was early morning). Arriving at the one stalled restroom, we took turns using the facility. It's not air conditioned, but it has restroom tissue! I had to be careful where I stepped because previous customers left the floor "wet"... Uhg! At least there was a sink outside - with soap! Yay! I liked this Market Center! I'll read up on its history later! I highly recommend stopping here when you are in Kilauea, Kauai, Hawaii! There's also a noteworthy exhibit about Hawaii's Plantation Life!

Heads up - avoid going to Foodland during dinner hour. Everyone has the same idea. Long times. We liked the poke. But the prepared food was primarily fried food. Ample outdoor parking.

(Visited 04/24/26 FR @ 5:00pm and 04/25/26 SA @ 1:00pm): This old town was cool like a koala!…read more Old Kōloa Town was an original plantation-era shopping village in the heart of historic Kōloa Town, which I came upon while I explored the area, the shops, and specifically Mucho Aloha Brewhouse. Kōloa Town was the home of Hawai'i's first successful sugar mill, so this quaint outdoor shopping emporium catered to this important time in history to try and meld the two times and worlds together. Otherwise a sleepy town, Old Kōloa Town attracted visitors and tourists for its smattering of businesses that ranged from art galleries, local souvenirs, restaurants, and more. Did this old town hold enough coolness to warrant future returns!? PURCHASE(S) Mucho Aloha Brewhouse ($98.00): My mandatory visit to a nearby brewery. Mango's ($16.00): Some dessert onsite and also something for later. Kaua'i Island Brewing Co. ($87.00): My first experience while in town, it was so nice I went twice! EXPERIENCE A slow-paced town where my legs casually led me along the main road and pathways as I stepped into one storefront after another https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=WqrC5FX_CFg_bHOJm2Yn5Q to see what was inside possibly for that must-have gift or something to be wowed by. I gave the respect each business deserved, admired and held their wares in some cases, curiously people-watched, and eventually was a patron at one specific business within the Old Kōloa Town shopping complex as well as two other nearby businesses in town. Iconic roosters https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=G1mYSbhamHS-3nlBBlMmzw roamed everywhere (please don't feed them), and the gentle wind blew against me as I stood waiting for the bus to take me back to my hotel. SERVICE Generally speaking, all of the employees I came in contact with were friendly and helpful. The only business I actually spent money and time at was Mucho Aloha Brewhouse, and the service was efficient and straightforward. PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): I took the bus, so this wasn't an issue for me. Otherwise, there appeared to be some onsite parking with spots along the main drag of Koloa Rd. and other side streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A cluster of businesses divided into buildings paired with other non-associated stores and food trucks in town, you had various options that helped separate you from your money, from art, clothing, restaurants, trinkets, and more. Each shop had its distinct feel, but the overriding theme was the Hawaiian aloha spirit. Each storefront had plenty of natural lighting while various electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. TVs and background music (if applicable) varied by merchant. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=144&select=QQmaC7rAXbteMyjTfkSJ3g ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Old Kōloa Town - both the shopping complex and the actual town - was a lot of fun and I would definitely visit it if I were in the area. There were still many places to spend my money, the vibe was totally chill, and I could possibly spend an entire day just putzing around. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $201.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, at least the stores I shopped at accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

For anyone staying in the Poipu area, visiting Old Koloa Town is a must!…read more Old Koloa Town is filled with: - Small boutique stores ~ perfect for souvenir shopping, especially if you're looking for something locally made - Great eateries ~ A lot of good food options, ranging from breakfast to desert - Small grocery stores ~ a few options you could shop from if you need food - Coffee shops ~ Amazing shops for good coffee and food - Food Trucks ~ scattered around the edges, you can find tasty food trucks around.
