Kings’ Shops

What Kings’ Shops does

Kings' Shops is a physical, open-air retail shopping and dining center located at 250 Waikoloa Beach Drive in Waikoloa, Hawaii, on the Kohala Coast of the Big Island. The property is owned and operated by Pacific Retail Capital Partners, Inc., a Los Angeles-based retail real estate investment and management firm, with Kings' Shops branded as "A Pacific Retail Property." The center comprises more than 40 storefronts and restaurant spaces across categories including jewelry, apparel, accessories, beauty, home furnishings, outdoor gear, services, and dining, anchored by national luxury brands (Tiffany & Co., lululemon) and heritage Hawaiian retailers (Na Hoku, Kahala, Tori Richard, Hawaiian Island Creations).

The center operates as a multi-channel retail and experience destination. Core offerings include a curated retail and restaurant lease portfolio, paid entertainment attractions (a nine-hole Lakeside Putting course designed with Southwest Greens / Nicklaus Design affiliate; Virtual Golf 'Ohana; henna art; clay flower workshops), recurring programming (weekly Local Market Tuesdays, monthly Polynesian cultural performances, paint classes, cocktail competitions, and an annual Aloha Art Challenge), and amenities such as complimentary WiFi and an in-resort shuttle (daily 12:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m., children under 4 free, $2 child, $3 adult) connecting Hilton Waikoloa Village, Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa, and Queens' MarketPlace. Marketing channels span email newsletter (Kings' Shops Insider), the company website, Facebook, Instagram, X, and on-property events.

Revenue mechanics are based on recurring retail space leasing paid by tenants, supplemented by ancillary paid services (putting admissions, workshop tickets, paint classes, shuttle fees), promotional and event-driven revenue, and tenant-funded marketing via the deals platform. Two primary customer end-markets are served: resort tourists visiting the Kohala Coast and local kama'aina residents, with a hybrid segmentation approach supported by Kama'aina deals and tourist-oriented programming. The property competes as a destination-only retail concept with no e-commerce channel; the operating entity itself is small (6 employees), reflecting a lean property-management overhead structure within the broader Pacific Retail portfolio.

Direct peers

• The Shops at Wailea: Upscale open-air resort shopping center in Wailea, Maui, anchored by luxury brands (Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Tiffany & Co.). Comparable to Kings' Shops in its premium resort-area positioning and curated luxury tenant mix.
• Queens' MarketPlace: Sister resort shopping center immediately adjacent to Kings' Shops in Waikoloa Beach Resort, served by the same shuttle. Operates a similarly curated mix of national retailers, restaurants, and entertainment, and is the most direct comparison point for both tenant mix and foot traffic.
• Royal Hawaiian Center: Three-level open-air shopping center in the heart of Waikiki, offering ~310,000 sq ft of retail, dining, and entertainment. Comparable to Kings' Shops in business model (resort shopping) and customer base (Hawaii tourists), though at significantly larger scale.
• Whalers Village: Open-air resort shopping center in Kaanapali, Maui, featuring luxury and lifestyle retailers (including Tiffany & Co.) plus restaurants. Closest analogue to Kings' Shops in scale, mix, and resort-anchored tourist customer base.
• International Market Place: Open-air shopping center in Waikiki featuring luxury and lifestyle retail, dining, and entertainment. Similar resort-anchored positioning and curated tenant mix to Kings' Shops.

Others

• Hilton Waikoloa Village: Adjacent resort that feeds substantial foot traffic to Kings' Shops via the shared shuttle. Not a direct competitor but a critical customer pipeline and ecosystem partner.
• Pacific Retail Capital Partners: Parent company and owner/operator of Kings' Shops. Manages a portfolio of retail real estate properties across the U.S. (including Queens' MarketPlace). Relevant as the strategic decision-maker and capital source for Kings' Shops.

Regional players

• Mauna Lani Shopping Center: Resort shopping center on the Kohala Coast of the Big Island, near Mauna Lani resort area. Comparable to Kings' Shops in serving a Big Island resort customer base, but smaller scale and different anchor mix.
• Princeville Shopping Center: Resort shopping center in Princeville, Kauai's North Shore, serving the Hanalei-area resort market. Comparable to Kings' Shops in business model (resort-anchored retail), but in a different Hawaiian island market.

Broad incumbents

• Ala Moana Center: Largest open-air shopping center in the United States, located in Honolulu. Overlaps with Kings' Shops in luxury tenant mix and Hawaii tourist appeal, but at vastly larger scale and with a broader, non-resort-specific customer base.
