They got gasoline station next door. Nice right? But not until you need to use a restroom, then it will ruin the vibe. A not so convenient place in my opinion ayt. So definitely this is not the place as they don't have any public restroom. But on the side note, they have ice machine on this one. Love this idea though. And they worked. Goodness for summer days. The staff working here aren't friendly. They will just scan your item without engaging to talk and that's fine. Probably burnt out from their job. Hopefully they'll be a little more friendly people here. Mahalo for reading & happy juandering fellow Yeeps.

I was surprised to find so many grab and go meals. I opted for the sushi. I will say that it tasted really good for being in a supermarket. The store is very clean and organized.

You like Poke Bowls? Keith IS the man!!! He serves up the best batches of Poke on the island…read more Super fresh ingredients. Don't let the size of the bowl fool you either, these babies are hefty.

We love this little institution of a liquor store in Hanalei. They've been there since 1946?!…read moreThat's amazing. It's your one stop shop for drinks of every variety, snacks, musubis and their awesome souvenir tees & hats. I bought 4 tee shirts. 2 were gifts.... They loved the tees as one I gave to my dad. He wears it all the time. My girl bought a hat. She loves it. It's perfect for the beach. Love the old logo. Love the new logo. The older gentleman that was manning the register was super cool. Not sure, he might be the manager or the owner. He asked us whereabouts we were visiting from and we told him Southern California but that I was originally from San Francisco. He was telling us he used to work the fishing boats up and down the California coast. We enjoyed talking to him and hope to see him when we return next year to Hanalei town. Located right in the middle of town on the main drag along Kuhio Highway. Just after Titus Kinimaka's Quiksilver store and before the plaza BIllabong (AI Forever) is in. Cant miss it. Parking out front. Make sure you stop in and buy something.

Only negative is that the selection of local hard seltzer was really lacking, we found there to be much more variety at local grocery stores. (they had a wide selection of "Big Seltzer" (Truly, White Claw) though) They do have some decent HI-brewed canned beer though. (such as Maui Brewing's Pilsner, pictured)

Yeah, and I know there's a Big Save in Hanalei but that store is small. I would consider that a grocery store and not a supermarket. So many times I've been there and the one of the refrigerator units isn't working so they're empty. The floors are seriously dilapidated and missing chunks of vinyl. If the headquarters would only invest into this location it would be a place the community would shop for groceries exclusively. They do still have a decent array of poke and hot foods but it could be do much better. I hope one day they will.

In Hawaii, fresh poke is in abundance. Every place claims they are the best on the island. Each…read moreperson to their own liking. When driving through Kauai, one will find there are general stores everywhere that will always have the usual convenience fare, tourist souvenirs, and poke. If you weren't seeking Whalers General store one would not know of the fresh poke that is fairly priced. Enter and head on towards the right. The laid back staff are patient as you decide! In addition to poke are other pickled selections of seafood. The local and fresh caught poke are all full flavored. When it comes to favorites the husband and I found ourselves enjoying every bite of the spicy ahi and shoyu ahi. The texture and cuts of the fish make all the difference. Here they know what they are doing! We will definitely be coming back when visiting Kauai!

I was told at check-in that we were " upgraded" to a 3 bedroom. I was like hmmmm? Ok....but I don't need a 3 bedroom, a 2 bedroom is fine. Not sure if my paid reservation was given to someone else? The 3 bedroom upgrade only had one room with a/c. We definitely needed it the nights we were there and all of us ended up sleeping in the same room each night cuz it was too stinkin' hot. So it would've been more cost effective for us to have just rented a 1 bedroom instead. Very expensive for what's provided all around. Pool is nice. Housekeeping staff friendly and I give them props as I didn't see one roach or centipede the whole time in my cabin. There's a front desk person whose from Stockton, CA (can't remember his name) very friendly. A different front staff person a female and local however was not friendly or helpful at all and when I went to inquire about something at the desk and treated me as if I was a absolute bother to her and like I was asking the dumbest question she's ever had to answer. Of which it quite possibly was...but for what this place costs per night and a tacked on " resort fee" you need to at a minimum pretend that you don't think I'm and idiot. This is run by " coast" properties now. It used to be run by Aston. It's really gone down hill, you don't get what appears on the website, nor do most cottages look as great as their lobby as reassured by others also staying there when we got to talking at the pool. Never staying there again. I go often to this side of the island because all of my family lives on the west side. So to the rude lady at the front desk...no, I'm not just a "dumb haole," But am "hapa", and if I wasn't? You should still treat like a local. Got aloha?
