I was referred this children's store while shopping for a rash guard swimsuit for my 8 y/o daughter…read more First off they don't open until 10:30 am so don't try and knock out your shopping early! Then they only had (2) rash guard swimsuits to choose from (in Hawaii across from the beach) I chose one...while still feeling good about my choice I was paying for it & was told that all sales are final on swimwear, I mentioned my daughter was at the hotel across the street I planned on bringing it to her and have her try it on before removing any tags to make sure it fits. The sales lady told me I should bring her in to try on first if I am not sure of her size...OK. I say OK, no worries this will be fine I'm fairly certain of her size. As she rings it up she prints a separate receipt that I needed to sign separately for her to keep at the store of me acknowledging the no return policy on swimwear, I sign it. Then she gets out a big red rubber stamp that says: "All Sales Final No Returns" for the receipt I would be taking with me and stamps it. Anyhow, as a 13 year former employee of Nordstrom I just couldn't help feeling not very happy with my whole shopping experience, and not appreciated as a buyer. I like the rash guard top and it fits...whew! I understand there are folks that take advantage of retail stores with returns and the stores are unable to return back into stock causing a loss of profit. But by setting a policy of a strict time limit and requiring all tags to still be attached is much more reasonable, and the store still able to re sell it is a win-win.

The staff aren't over-the-top, but they're approachable and happy to help when you need something. I actually liked that--it felt genuine. The clothing is adorable and feels like good quality. They were also super clear about prices, especially on the jewelry, with no pressure or upselling. Just a nice, easy shopping experience all around.

I was really looking forward to finding a nice Hawaiian shirt for my partner, and this shop…read moredefinitely caught our eye. It was beautifully organized and had a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised (and honestly so happy) to see a small selection of plus-size men's clothing which can be so rare, especially in mall shops. It felt great to see 3X options available! Since the fabric wasn't stretchy, we searched for a 4X and were lucky to find one and my partner loved the design right away. We were both so excited. What ultimately stopped us was the price, it was over $100, for one shirt, which is unfortunately outside of our budget right now. That said, we absolutely see the quality and care that goes into each piece, and we truly respect how they're made. We're grateful for the inclusivity and hope to come back on a special occasion to finally take one home. Thank you for making us feel seen, we'll be back!

When we stopped by they were doing a big sale, with things up to 70% off. They have 3 different styles of Aloha shirts for men, their classic button down, a slim fit, and a 3 button shirt. They also have women's apparel like dresses and shirts and slippers. I know my dad has shirts from Reyn Spooner that he has been wearing for decades- making an Aloha shirt from here a great gift.

As we were…read morerenting kayaks and other gear, I got the impression that this surf shop is mainly used by locals who have a truck or vehicle to transport the rented gear where they want. We had over estimated our ability to walk the heavy kayak down to the beach and the owner was very kind to assist us by loading it in his vehicle, while at the beach he introduced us to the life guard because he was concerned as there were strong winds/currents that day, and he also came to check in on us and helped drive the kayak back. We were super grateful for the effort he put in because it truly was exceptional. The boogie boards and snorkel gear were good quality and easy to carry if you're going to a local beach. If you do want to rent the kayaks, just make sure you have the transportation figured out. When we returned we also had some shaved ice which was some of the best we had during this trip. Very refreshing!
