seedaz Posted April 20, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Is there a Walmart, Target...or Kmart anywhere near the Aloha Tower?

ahibunny Posted April 21, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Unfortunately, Target doesn't exist in Hawaii, but maybe one of these days. There is a Kmart along Nimitz Highway as you head towards the airport. Walmart would be out of your way as they are in Mililani and Kunia on the Leeward (west)side of Oahu.

CaribbeanBound Posted April 26, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 26, 2004 K-Mart is maybe a mile at best EWA (West) of the pier. You can also walk about 4 blocks Mauka from the pier (towards the mountains) on Fort Street and you will find Macy's, Long's Drug Store, and a Ross'. 3 blocks Diamond Head (East) of Macy's (walking along Hotel Street) is where you'll find Iolani Palace.

oma&opa Posted April 27, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 27, 2004 Dear Cari.... Interested in your walking directions from Aloha Tower to shopping. We are wanting to buy our wine to carry on at embarkation in Honolulu rather than carry the gazillion miles from home! Do any of the stores you mentioned sell wine? Which? Any preferences? Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanBound Posted April 27, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2004 Longs has a decent wine selection, with discount prices. For something different, try the Pineapple Wine from Maui. (Seriously). It's great with ham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spleen93 Posted April 28, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Longs is the only one of the three that carries wine.

CaribbeanBound Posted April 28, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Safeway also has a big wine selection. It is located at the corner of Bishop (Pali Highway) and Vineyard. In fact it shares this corner with another Longs Drug Store. It is about 3 or 4 long blocks Mauka (North) of Macy's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spleen93 Posted April 29, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 29, 2004 That Safeway is a pretty long walk from Aloha Tower ...
