Costco Kapolei Telephone #: (808) 674-3900

The Costco in Kapolei has opened! It is built on 17.75 acres and the warehouse is 159,019 sf. A gas station is also here. At full build out they will employ 200 - 300 associates. 50 employees have transfered over from the Waipio location to get things going.

The great thing is that the new Costco is only one exit down from Ko Olina. About a five minute drive, it is right across the street from The Home Depot.

If you don't have a Costco Warehouse membership, it is worth the money. I think I only pay around $50.00 - $75.00 per year. You'll save that on one trip. According to Costco, one out of every two people in Hawaii have a Costco membership.

This location sells USDA Prime steaks, we BBQ'ed a couple of Rib Eyes and they came out outstanding. They also have a small selection of Ahi Tuna, Salmon and a couple of other fish, not as good as Sam's Club, but not bad. We have Wolf B-B-Q gas grills around the pool areas at the Ko Olina Beach Villas Resort so come out and B-B-Q and watch the sun go down.

Milk was only $3.85 this past week. 03/14/09.
