Rip Curl Hanalei offers a good selection of beachwear, bracelets, sandals, and hats, with some items featuring higher prices due to their brands. The store has unique items not found elsewhere in Hanalei, making it a good place to find gifts or beach essentials. Customers have noted that the store is sometimes closed without any sign indicating if or when it will reopen, suggesting possible staffing issues. The staff experience varies; while some customers found the staff friendly and helpful, others felt that at least one cashier was unfriendly and unwelcoming. Overall, the store is appreciated for its quality products and unique offerings, but inconsistent opening hours and mixed customer service experiences have been mentioned.
3 stars because the clothes are really nice and I love Rip Curl. But the older lady at the check out was just not friendly. Kinda felt she didn’t want us there. We live on the South and have been here many times and had a good experience, but not today.

Great selection with items that you won’t find anywhere else in Hanalei. My partner found the type of rash guard she was looking for easily and Sarah was a joy to chat with. Definitely stop in if you’re needing unique gifts for back home or solid choices for the beach.
