About Alvin's Island - Holmes Beach #753

Alvin's Island in Holmes Beach, FL, is a sprawling souvenir and beach supply shop bursting with a wide variety of merchandise. Customers frequently praise the extensive selection, reasonable pricing, and the helpfulness of specific staff members like Victoria and Nicole, though service quality can be inconsistent. This location is ideal for vacationers seeking everything from cheap tees and gag gifts to brand-name beach gear, offering a one-stop shop for island mementos.

The Good

Customers frequently praise the store's amazing and wide variety of merchandise, often noting that it has 'everything' needed for souvenirs, beach gear, and gifts. Prices are generally considered reasonable, with many mentioning great deals, sales, and 'buy one get one free' offers. Specific staff members, particularly Victoria and Nicole, received multiple commendations for being exceptionally friendly, kind, helpful, and patient. The store is often described as very clean, well-organized (though sometimes crowded), and having a great beach vibe.

Things to Consider

The most significant complaints revolve around product quality, with multiple reports of purchased items (shirts, hats) falling apart or showing defects immediately after washing or minimal use. Store layout is frequently criticized for being too crowded, with tight aisles making it difficult to maneuver, especially for those needing accessibility. Staff service is inconsistent; while some employees are excellent, others were described as rude, ignoring customers, failing to honor advertised sales (requiring customers to point out discounts), or being unhelpful regarding returns. One severe incident involved a manager threatening to call the police over a disputed return for a high-priced toy.
