I visited Walmart in Līhuʻe, Kauaʻi, Hawaii [3-3300 Kuhio Hwy] on Monday, 01/19/26, in the late afternoon. Walmart is conveniently located near the Līhuʻe Airport, which was my first stop coming into the island. I was intrigued by the idea of browsing and purchasing a good variety of Hawaiian snacks. I was truly impressed by the offerings, such as Milk Chocolate Island Macs, Hawaiian Sun drinks, Kauaʻi Coffee, Maui Style Potato Chips, Hawaiian 3D candy, and much more. The store was well-stocked and easy to navigate. In the afternoon, the inside was very busy with many shoppers, which is understandable since this is the only Walmart on the island of Kauaʻi. The parking lot had plenty of spaces, making parking easy and stress-free. I also noticed roosters roaming around; how adorable! I will definitely be returning to this Walmart location. I plan to pick up more snacks and souvenirs that I don't normally find back home in California, or in most parts of the U.S., for that matter. read more

This is a good place to come as a visitor when you get off the plane before going to your hotel or vacation rental. Their groceries are much less expensive than the supermarkets if you can find what you need here at Walmart. And they have beach toys and chairs. read more

Consumerism reigns supreme with a Walmart on the tiny island of Kauai! Aloha! We were fortunate enough to ride our bikes here. Though, there are bike lanes in the hallway, but just not everywhere. So drive carefully. read more

Walmart has arrived on the tiny paradise, no surprise that it was super busy Store was pretty clean. Was able to use the fitting rooms easily. Even in 2025, pricing was good. I bought a bunch of stuff, from gifts for friends and family - and some for me and my wife. Shirts, dresses, coffee cups, Hawaiin candy, they got everything. All stocked up and ready for tourists. I paid almost $200, if I bought from other stores price would probably be $500 . Yes , Kauai is expensive. We all know that. But at least can find a few inexpensive things . Aloha and mahalo ! read more

Great stop for Hawaiian gifts, Mac nuts, coffee and souvenirs. Got some stickers, coffee, Mac nuts and tee shirts from this trip. Snacks and food for the condo at great prices, mo betta tha Safeway. read more

We came looking for some reef safe sunscreen and ended up shopping quite a bit from here. This is the only Walmart on the island and it kind of lives up to that responsibility. They have lots of variety of local snacks, beers and local food items. We also got a few things to take back home and the packaging held very well. Everything you would need for your trip that you either couldn't carry or forgot to bring can be found here -from sunscreen to umbrellas , food and medicines or cosmetics . Lots of variety of souvenirs and I felt they had more choices at a reasonable price than some of the fancier stores. read more

Wanted to get some fabric today. Chose one and nobody at the cutting counter. There was another customer waiting for assistance too. She buzzed and even was sweet to buzz for someone for me. I saw a associate nearby, asked her if she could cut fabric for me but she said she couldn't. Maybe cross train your employees to cut fabric. read more

Older store in good location with satisfactory parking. Good selection of merchandise, although the grocery selection was limited. Store appeared to be clean and well maintained. The garden department could have had a larger selection of plants, especially cactus and succulents. read more

I forgot to pack our toothbrushes and so glad there's a Walmart in Lihue, a reason for our stop here. I also needed water, wine, & snacks. I shop at Walmart alot back on Oahu and I really see the difference here. Huge Walmart, organized, and this Walmart gets busy but the goes smoothly. Note., the wines, alcoholic beverages are locked up here in glass cages, you will have to ask a staff member for help. There is a bottom there, but I missed it. I had to look for a staff. Once you get your bottle of wine, there is a security device on bottles, which will be removed at check out. I think this is awesome, I hope stores on Oahu starts this as well, great idea to prevent thefts of the good stuff. I Got all of my essentials, toothpaste, water, cheap wine, shrimp chips, my favorite salted caramel twix and waited about 10 mins in line. The family in front of me had a cart full of items, they live on the other side of Kauai so they mentioned they might as well stock up. The cashier ringing was quick! Got everything I needed and also saved too. Happy with our visit, thank you Walmart! read more

I think this might be one of the nicest Wal-Marts I've ever been to. My husband and I were in Kauai for a week and needed snacks/waters to keep in our room between excursions and outings. Was-Mart had everything we needed and then some! We got water, snacks, sunscreen, bug spray and a few small clothing items we didn't realize we forgot. It's much cleaner and well-stocked than the locations I've been to in CA, which is awesome. It was an overall really good experience! I would definitely recommend coming here if you are visiting and need anything that isn't sold at the local shops. read more

Bought an Swiss solar power bank that would not charge from sunlight. I drove across the entire island to exchange it, staff and the manager refused to help. They promised a refund that won't arrive until next week, leaving me with no power and no way to buy a replacement (Walmart still does not accept Apple Pay in 2025). This level of incompetence and indifference is dangerous and unacceptable. I want a meaningful compensation for my time, travel, and the risk I was put in. Warning to everyone: avoid this store - they will sell you defective products and leave you with nothing. read more

Staff is amazing ! Personal, professional,knowledgeable and consultations spot on. Great shot givers too! Kudos to every Walmart employee for that matter read more

This is the only Walmart on the island and conveniently located to the Lihue area, so be sure to stop by and grab some snacks, drinks, etc, after landing at LIH. Aside from Costco, they have the best prices on alcohol, sodas/water, snacks, Hawaiian chocolates, and most other local or souvenir items. Similar to Walmarts in Hawaii, they have a full section just for souvenirs and Aloha shirts. Just be sure to hang onto your receipt until you leave the store because they have an employee checking at the door! I saw people fumbling through their purses, unable to locate their receipt even though they had just paid! Or so they claimed lol! read more

Walmart - Koloa Rum sold here! - Department Stores Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Went to this Walmart, probably best not to go late as the degenerates tend to wander over there. I went to buy some small items and got intetrupted by a 5150 guy that kept swearing at people. I almost took him on but I would have choked him out. Felt bad for the aunties that work the late shift! Put my items back and left. It needs proper security for the customers and aunties that work there! Hire off duty Kauai PD ! read more

Kehnlee a Walmart associate went the extra step to help this auntie yesterday. I am only 5 feet tall and was unable to reach a magazine on the very top level of the magazine rack. I saw a female associate and waved at her. She immediately walked away with a smirking smile. The young man stopped what he was doing pushing a large cart and came to assist me in a kind, professional and thanked me for shopping at Walmart. We need more young men like him. I notified his manager. Blessings! read more

Came here twice and both times were disappointing. The first, I was waiting for a $15 camera stand that was behind locked glass for some reason. Not even a camera, just a stand. When the customer in front of me that was taking ages finally finished, the employee got the box for me and I couldn't check out right there but she had to walk it all the way to the front for me. Talk about inconvenient. The second time, I came in looking for snacks for my flight and it was almost impossible to find anything gluten free since they had no gluten free section. read more

This is NOT a supercenter but has all the necessities. They have an extensive souvenir section with trinkits, shirts, and other tourist stuff. The prices are good, but the quality is, well...Walmart. They have a small food section, and even my favorite Milo's Ice Tea! If you are staying on the island and need anything, this is the place to go. Don't expect the staff to be too helpful and your expectations will be met. read more

There is a Walmart in Kauai? Yes there is! I actually don't go to Walmart much on the mainland but here, we needed a variety of things and found them all here. This Walmart even has a "souvenirs" section for Hawaii memorabilia. read more

Best Walmart on Kauai, hands down. Seriously though, if you're a tourist trying to save a buck on groceries you cannot do better for yourself than hitting this Walmart and hitting it hard. They didn't seem to have any fresh refrigerated meats though like beef, chicken or fish, so sadly all that stuff was frozen They've also got a better-than-expected selection of local food, chips, candies etc. as well as the best deals on hard goods you may need like water shoes, flippers, snorkels, ponchos, sun screen, bug spray, beach towels etc. Bring your own bags. read more

The worst Walmart I've ever been to you can't walk out of the store after having to ring your own product up for the employees run after you in the parking lot I will never go back you lost my business read more

I have been using Walmart on Maui since they opened, never had a problem. Had to relocate to Kauai from Lahaina. I reordered a personal 12 month calendar online to pickup at the Kauai Walmart. They wouldn't reprint it because one of my photos had a adult couple playing naked in the distance in a pond. The Maui Walmart has reprinted this calendar for me for years. My photo is not pornographic , indecent or objectionable. According to Walmart, each store manager decides what can be printed, not Walmart. I can get it printed at walmart online, but have to pay for shipping. So beware, the puritanical, small minded Manager at the Kauai Walmart can censor any photo you order printed, even online. I can't believe Walmart hires people like this and condones this kind of action. I will never shop there again! read more

Walmart - 1977 maui photo. - Department Stores Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

It's Wal-Mart. In Kaua'i. It's pretty much a typical Wal-Mart. It's not the cleanest spot and the staff are a bit slow. Longest time I ever spent in a check out line. Still better to buy here than pay the over priced prices elsewhere. Either way. Get your stuff here while on vacation read more

A very large store located very close to the Cruise Ship Port. They offer a free shuttle to and from the ships. We needed a few things and sine we will be on our ship for another 45 days we decided to go in a restock some of our essentials. The shuttle was kept busy most of the day going back and forth from the ship to the store. The shuttle driver was very nice and told some very interesting stories about the island and what happened beck in the early 90's when the Hurricane hit the area and caused a lot of devastation. The store was well stocked and had most everything we needed. They were very busy and the lines long as most everybody from the ship was there. We found the staff to also be very friendly and helpful. We've been in other stores around the island and the prices here are so much lower it is actually amazing to see the difference. I can see why the folks that live on the island would want to shop here. read more

Stopped by here before my flight out from Kauai because I needed to get some last minute treats. This is the only Walmart on the island so be prepared for a packed store. However, the employees do a great job of keeping the aisles stocked full of inventory. There's a whole section for Hawaiian souvenirs, from mugs, license plates, and shirts, to sunglasses, leis, and ukeleles. The snacks aisle is stacked full of Hawaiian treats such as white chocolate macadamia nuts, local coffee brands, and various coconut infused snacks. The thing that this store lacks are customer service reps on the floor. They are few and far between so you have to scour through the aisles to finally find someone to ask where a particular item is. That part is frustrating and took a lot of time, which led to me missing my flight. There's also a McDonald's here, which I was able to buy a Haupia pie and bring it with me to the mainland. read more

We went to this place so many times during our short weekend trip. It's crazy but it was out of necessity. The Target on the island had only been open for a week or so and isn't fully stocked yet and what we needed only Walmart had. Unfortunately... it was a HORRIBLE experience. Our breast pump broke and we needed a new one. We bought one and when we opened it, it had dried milk inside and looked like it had been returned. EWWWW gross!!! So we turned around and brought it back. The second one we bought wouldn't charge! Seriously?! I even went and bought a new plug for it and still nothing. Out of desperation we went with a hand pump as a third option because nothing else was on the shelf. When we brought back the second one that wouldn't charge, they didn't want to give our money back so they checked if they had an exchange. Amazingly they pulled one from the back? The box was beat up and it looked iffy to me but more importantly, SAY WHAT? Where was that before?! Thankfully that one worked and we just kinda shrugged it off and went on our way to be done with it. I guess now we at least have a whacky story out of it. Thanks Walmart. read more

Decent little Walmart but weird cosmetics section blocked off. Fruit selection was good, but papayas weren't ripe. Save yourself the heartache and get them from a fruit stand or the papaya farm on the way back from Waimea Canyon! The frozen section was severely limited. Don't expect it to look anything like the mainland freezer section at your local Walmart. They didn't have taro chips the day we arrived but they did the day we were leaving :( Like most island Walmarts the local touristy goods are on the left when you walk in and then frozen stuff is off to the right, with the cosmetic in the far right corner, partitioned off likely to avoid theft. They had a decent selection of clothes in case you arrived and didn't realize this island is cooler and more rainy than the others! I found a cute swimsuit cover up here and got nailpolish for my bare nails. read more

Considering that all we have Walmart and Kmart as competitors and no Target- I do love this Walmart. Very clean & fast check out. Just remember to bring your own bags because they are sticklers for the "bag ban," no plastic bags. The key here is FAST check out as compared to Kmart (slow). Yes, Walmart is a bit cheaper in most items, but Kmart has a better selection of items like: toys, veggies/fruits, salad dressings and canned food. The employees here rock! This Walmart shreds over most Walmart stores on the mainland. TIP: Just FYI, it will be busier on Thursdays and Fridays because of the cruise ships that come in on those days. It will also get super crowded around office supply areas around July because local kids start school at the beginning of August. read more

I'm not usually a fan of this place with all the stories of how badly they've treated employees and suppliers but I'm on Kauai now and there's is a oasis of products at a good price that can't be found anywhere on island. ( one of the prices of paradise) costco is better quality, but they don't carry everything and so we're forced to come here or go without read more

The perfect place to grab knick knacks and souvenirs at Walmart prices. The parking lot was a nightmare to get in and out of, but what Walmart doesn't have parking woes? The staff were friendly and helpful, getting us directed to our stickers, magnets, and macadamia nuts quickly. Also a nice spot for budget minded folks, with great prices on sunscreen and additional toiletries possibly forgotten on the mainland. read more

Walmart - Department Stores Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Went thru a self checkout on vacation. To be echo friendly I allowed the receipt texted. Upon leaving an older man, employee accused me of theft and demanded to see a receipt. Unfortunately my phone was in the rental car parked in the lot. I kinda felt like calling the local police. This guy was out of control. Kept saying it was store policy. I'm pretty sure Walmart wouldn't back this employee but would have been interesting in court. read more

I really dislike Walmart and normally won't ever go. However I was forced into it because I needed an item that only they had. The employees that I made contact with were very friendly and went out of their way to help us find what we were looking for. It was a bit of an effort to find someone in electronics, but when we did he was friendly and helped us find what we were looking for. Due to an error we had to return an extra cable that was purchased in error. The return process was very slow, with a long line and only one person working there. That was really terrible. read more

I give this Walmart between 3 and 4 stars. Good things: Big, open late, most employees are friendly, good return policy, etc. Bad things: Gets crowded, won't match online prices, runs out and does not get items in stock for a long time, needs more organic food, etc. I bought lots of stuff from this Walmart in 2020. I even bought a great bike from them and rode it everywhere for months. The local bike shops in Kapaa serviced it and I may review those later. It is difficult for me to find everything that Walmart has elsewhere. For that I am thankful. I'll be back. read more

The lady checking the receipt at the door was so rude I don't think customer service is the right job for her

Wal-Mart is the devil but it's always the giant stock-up store when traveling. From CA to FL, usually they're chock full of nothing but cheap clothes, cheaper coffee makers, and little debbie pies. This one is different at least. Offers HI friendly selection with local snacks (hurricane popcorn and maui chips), lower prices on drinks and tourist gifts than other places, and an utterly massive sandal selection. Mandatory stop for tourists since it's so close to the airport. Don't go broke, buy before you hit the beach. read more

Walmart - Looks like Walmart. - Department Stores Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

I needed help at the electronic and photos area, the workers services is very poor. I think employers need to hire people who has customer service education, cause customer services is bad in walMart. The lady Mary by the photo department "Never Smiles" unless she knows someone. And when you ask for help, Mary has an attitude like she has a cucumber up her butt. If I was ger supervisor or boss...I would automatically fire her and a few of the employees there! read more

Friendly svc & staff. Walmart Lihue has always been our go to location for the many things we need when we're in town. We are Walmart regular shoppers back home (CA.), and Walmart is our GO-TO store for supplies when we travel to other states (NV, AZ, TX, NY), so we know how Walmart operates & the expectation level for the many local groceries, clothing, toiletries & hygiene products. Back to Walmart Lihue, we love this store and continually find ourselves back almost daily during our stay in Kauai. read more

The lady at the door checking our groceries against the receipt was so rude and ridiculous. We bought $175 of groceries, and she was so concerned that we might not have paid the fifty cents for one walmart bag that she kept going over and over the receipt looking for that fifty cents and then would ask if we had purchased the bag. During this time, people were stacking up to try to get out of the store, but her concern was that fifty cents, and she wasn't letting anyone out until she settled with us. But behold, she finally found that fifty cents listed on the receipt, and all was right with her. Now I just want to return the bag and get my gift cents back!!! read more

We just had some photos done at our walmart photo center. Was very satisfied with the quality of the prints. Decided to have a canvas picture done and was more amazed on how great it looks.

First, you have to put your book bag in a locker. I had a bookbag with a shopping bag in it, my wallet, phone, and some other small items. I just got off the airplane and was ready to spend a couple hundred dollars. Anyway, I walk in and a woman says put your book bag in a locker which would mean I have to hold my wallet in my hand. So how am I supposed to shop with only one accessible hand? If they are so worried about theft, why did the woman at the door tell me to put my wallet in my cart. Oh, so I'm supposed to trust everyone in there, but they don't trust me. Honestly, it felt so trashy. Then, I spend almost $200. And my shopping bag that I had with me was now in the car because i didn't want my stuff inside their lockers and i put my book bag in there which held my shopping bag, so I had to buy another bag in Walmart. Then, I wanted to grab a drink from McDonald's in the Walmart. Well, you can't bring your cart in, and no one will watch it as it sits outside the McDonald's but inside Walmart. So, all the things I just bought could've been stolen. I was told "~not my problem" at this Walmart. It was the worst shopping experience of my life. Stay away. It's a shame there was no Target. read more

Great place for inexpensive souvenirs like t-shirts, sundresses, shorts, and more for adults and kids. I even got fresh Molokai bread on a Saturday morning from the food truck parked next to the entrance! read more
