Priced at $98. And this is one of the lower priced shirts that Kahala makes. Visited twice on different days while I contemplated the purchase. Met two different sales people who were both cheerful and friendly. Shirt is super well made, the fabric flows like the wind. It's supremely comfortable. If you are considering buying a shirt online the sizes run true.

Sorry I didn't pay much attention but im guessing a coffee shop is also located there because people were just sitting around. Anyhow it was our first time visiting this Aloha Exchange location and it was quite nice. It's a great spot to stop by if you're coming back from visiting the Kilauea lighthouse, pick up some nice clothing items for friends or relatives (local brand so its even more special) as gifts. Pricing is very competitive with our surf clothing shops but the quality of their shirts and shorts are much better and much softer than others. I'm not a booshee type person but other shops just can't compare to the quality of Aloha Exchange. The employees are all friendly and helpful and for some odd reason, the employee are all good looking lol (in both locations) model type. They must be Kauai made as well. Overall this Aloha Exchange location was very nice. It seems they have slightly different items from their Kalaeho location so it's worth the visit.

Pretty much everything you need for a day at the beach or for chilling on the island. This past summer in San Diego was so freaking cold that we were wearing fullsuits most/all of the time. Consequently, my first few days back surfing Hanalei brought on a bad ass case of BOARDRASH, between my legs (ahem), fml. No worries because it was the Big "Q" to the rescue. They put a hella lot of research into their products and I quickly traded in my 3 year old jams for some mighty fine new Cypher Wonderland "Diamond Dobby" and Cypher Ion "4Way Stretch" boardshorts and I was silk again in the water! The staff here is also totally helpful and is a wealth of information regarding local breaks, things to do, and other businesses in the area. Long Live the "Q"!!!

We only had our carry-ons and the clothes on our backs. My husband and I needed some clothes and we decided to stop here because it was within walking distance of the Grand Hyatt where we were staying. We had stopped at other shops and either women's suits were running $50 per piece for a bikini or more. Luckily I was able to find a two piece swimsuit from Sea Level Swim Australia here for about $70 due to a 50% off clearance sale. My husband got a discounted pair of swim trunks in the $30 range. This store saved the day because I was not about to swim in a hotel in my undies. Visited: January 2023

Came here the next morning to at least find a swimsuit to enjoy the hotel pool for the day. It was about 1.5 mi walk from Grand Hyatt. Upon arrival, I found that due to a 50% clearance sale on certain items that this was the only affordable place in the area to find stuff under $100! My wife got a swimsuit from Sea Level Swim Australia for about 80 bucks (2-piece), while I got Billabong board shorts for $30!! Great deal! And a life saver too!! They also sell t-shirts, Aloha shirts, swim cover-ups, beach blankets, sunglasses, and more!

On this trip to Hanalei, I had to see what was new because it had been at least 7 years since I had been on island. My only complaint about the clothing line itself is that their spaghetti strap dresses do not contain a shelf bra, so if you are on the bigger chest side of the spectrum, this may be difficult unless you have a really good strapless bra. From the moment I walked in, I was met with some high-pressure sales which was a major turn off. I have tried on their dresses before, but they are just not flattering on my body type. I am not fond of strapless bras because they tend to smash large breasts, and are too hot to wear, especially in the humidity of Kauai. Their line is stunning, and they have beautiful shirts for men as well. The dresses come with pockets which is a plus, but their items are extremely pricey, at $239+ per dress. Once again, I left empty handed due to the high-pressure sales, high prices, and lack of shelf bra incorporated into their dresses. I therefore I opted to wear a beautiful and colorful spaghetti strap dress with pockets and a shelf bra from Marshalls for $29.99 and still looked stunning. There is a location in Kapa'a as well. Beautiful clothing and 100% worth looking at.

Unfortunately, they were all overpriced in my opinion. While the quality is nice, I couldn't justify spending $80 before tax on a plain white shirt. If it was more affordable, I would've bought multiple items from them. I would've given them 4 stars, but they lost one because one of the employees kept watching me the entire time I browsed the store.
