I went to Kauai last summer and loved every minute.
While there were orchids everywhere there weren't many places selling them. I found only one orchid vendor, Orchid Alley in Kappa. It's very small, I walked past it twice, but nice place. They didn't really have anything special mostly hybrid phals and dendrobiums. I also went to a garden center that had some as landscape plants but it wasn't worth the shipping to send home.

The National Tropical Botanical Garden on the south end of the island by the spouting horn had some nice displays. If you go plan a few hours. I only managed to make it to one of the 3 tours offered because I was short on time.

Unfortunately Oahu, Maui, and the Big Island are where the growers are located!
