Melina’s Toys & Gift Shop — Local services in Ocean City

Bought a pair of pants from here, paid for them, the cashier threw a water gun in my bag which i thought was a gesture of kindness and we had a fine interaction. Im walking up the boardwalk maybe a quarter mile after and a man who had said hello to me in Melina’s had approached me telling me that I had falsely taken the gun and i had to go back and pay for it. Not wanting the water gun, i told him i must have misunderstood his employee and i didnt want the gun and he could have it back.

The souvenir is 🔥, the atmosphere in the store is cozy, I want to come back. Respect to the store and especially Adiya - let there be more...

Please do not get henna done here!!! They did a TERRIBLE job. I let my child get a henna tattoo (which I will never do again), and not only was the design absolute garbage, it smeared all over. It also doesn't show up until the next day. The artist does not know what they are doing, explained the process terribly, and I'm terrified for how long this will last on my child. The worst part is we paid $30, which we had to pay before...
