I recently had the pleasure of visiting Kalaheo Music and Strings while vacationing in Kauai, and I must say it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. From the moment my family and I stepped foot into the store, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality by the owners, Ron and Lawrie.The customer service at Kalaheo Music and Strings is simply outstanding. Ron and Lawrie went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and took the time to answer all of our questions. Their knowledge and passion for music were evident, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about helping us find the perfect instrument.Speaking of instruments, the store boasts an impressive selection of ukuleles, among other strings. As an avid ukulele collector, I was thrilled to find a wide variety of options, each displaying exceptional craftsmanship and quality. With Ron's guidance, I found a ukulele that spoke to me, and the purchasing process was smooth and effortless.One aspect that truly impressed me was the shipping service provided by Kalaheo Music and Strings. As I couldn't take the ukulele with me right away, Ron and Lawrie arranged for it to be shipped to my home. To my delight, it arrived in record time, and I was blown away by the meticulous packaging that ensured its safe journey. It's evident that they take great care in handling and delivering their instruments.Overall, my experience at Kalaheo Music and Strings was nothing short of exceptional. Ron and Lawrie are not only knowledgeable and passionate about their craft but also genuinely caring and attentive to their customers. Their dedication to providing an outstanding shopping experience is commendable.If you're in Kauai and have a love for music or are in search of a high-quality instrument, I highly recommend paying a visit to Kalaheo Music and Strings. They have an excellent selection, incredible customer service, and they go the extra mile to ensure your satisfaction. It's no wonder they have such a stellar reputation in the local community. Five stars all the way!

Cute little shop and friendly staff! Bought my partner a ukulele here. They have lots of options and helped us find the right one, plus gave us a mini lesson to get started. Brought it right to the beach afterwards. They also offer Zoom lessons!

About two years ago I bought a capo here. I needed one for my acoustic guitar and I use it on my electric guitar now and it works well. There aren't many options on Kauai, so if you don't want to order gear online there's Scotty's Music in Lihue (which is where I bought the guitar) and this place.The shop is easy to find downtown on the main drag. It's near the bus stops which is convenient and one is covered in case it's raining. I think it's like a hub and one line goes to Lihue and the other line goes to Poipu from here.They didn't have a lot of guitars or guitar stuff, but they had what I wanted. Aloha

Was looking for a ukulele while in Hawaii, and thought this was a good place to try. Sadly, the staff was rude and literally all of the products are behind the counters so when the staff isn’t being helpful… good luck seeing if the ones you like feel or play nicely. On top of that, the store is tiny. Many better I Keller and music stores on Kauai that I’ve found after stopping here. Nicer people, better prices, and you can actually try a few chords without being hassled. Save your time, these people don’t want your money.

This place is still playing pandemic at the end of 2022 and won't let you in without a face diaper (mask). They were quite rude about it, too, when I tried to go in. I was planning on purchasing a nice instrument. I ended up going to Hanalei Strings and spent my money there, which was much more friendly and accommodating.

The clerk was not very friendly. We did end up getting a UKE but from another place. Nice selection of instruments.

I found this place to be hard to shop at. Due to Covid there are plastic screens up almost all along the counter. The workers while trying to helpful left me feeling very defeated. They do give good guidance. Make sure it is your first stop in your 'ukulele shopping or you may find what they say contradicting what others say.
