Such a hidden classic breakfast gem! We wanted a relaxing breakfast spot and that's exactly what we got. The service was great and not too busy, and the fruit plate was so fresh! read more

The view is awesome, but the food was just okay. And as others mentioned, the place is very difficult to find! We were on vacation and while this restaurant was fine, I wouldn't necessarily recommend it. Service was rather slow, but it was also 45 minutes before closing time. read more

This place popped up when searching for a happy hour, but unfortunately, I missed the small window when I called. I decided to try this place out while walking around the resorts in Kaanapali. I happened to stumble upon this place when it opened, which allowed us to have premium seating outside with the gorgeous view of the water. Drinks: POG mimosa. Of course you can't go wrong with this! Main: I decided in pancakes with strawberries, pineapples,and macadamia nuts with a side huapia. This was filling! I had to balance out the sweet with the savory and I ordered some Portuguese sausage to go with the meal. Nicole, our waitress, was fabulous and very attentive. I liked that it wasn't too busy in the restaurant and it had a nice view. Definitely recommend stopping by here if you want a solid breakfast with views in Kaanapali. read more

Like a locals bar. friendly service, Great food, especially the sauce on the steak. Taco tuesdays are great.

The burgers were delicious and the service was superb. All the staffs were very polite. Our food came out quickly after ordering.

We needed breakfast! The food is delicious. It might look like a long line but the order taking is so efficient, it is super fast. The food came out very fast also. We had to try the cinnamon roll with our moco plate. We split and brought home a bit for a snack. Thanks for a great first morning in Maui breakfast! read more

We were looking for a place to eat brunch in Lahaina and my cousin recommended Castaway Cafe as he had it the day before and really enjoyed it. Castaway Cafe is tucked away in Maui Ka'anapali Villas. When we arrived, we put our name and number down as there were no open tables. It took about 20 mins for the table to be ready for us. For the table, I ordered the banana bread. This was really good and I liked the tartness of the lilikoi butter. I also liked that the banana bread was not sweet. For myself, I ordered the braised short rib benedict. This was delicious and hit the spot. You will definitely leave with a happy tummy! read more

We went here for breakfast twice while we were on Maui. We were staying at the Maui Marriott and enjoyed the morning walk to Castaways. Even though I've been to Maui many times in the past, it was my first time trying Castaways. It's one of those places that you know is there, but you don't know how good it is. The reason we tried it was somebody else staying at the Maui Marriott chatted us up in the hot tub and raved about Castaway's food. We were not disappointed! We were seated promptly, service was friendly, and the food was delicious. Which is why we went twice. The server was so nice. They even took our picture out on the lawn. Almost like a photo shoot! Highly recommend and we will be back again next time we are on Maui. read more

Cute little place. Nothing fancy but recommend it if in the area. Food was good. Had a great server, Ken. Enjoyed looking out at the beach/ ocean and beautiful views. We could seven see the whales while we ate lunch. read more

Close to Royal Lahaina for breakfast. Cute local atmosphere. Fast service. Food was yummy! Highly recommend.

We had so much fun with Rikki at the bar. She is a great bartender! The weather was awful, but she made the experience fun for us. Thank you to Rikki for helping us enjoy Maui! read more

Unfortunately I became very sick after eating their Kahlua Pork & Cabbage. The pork included many fatty pieces, that I noted to my wife. It was all bad. The view is great. The service was wildly under-staffed for Wednesday late lunch. Wifey had the fish tacos and she said they were okay but not as good as (another Kaanapali restaurant just south of this spot). read more

The views and service were excellent. Our group of 15 was accommodated smoothly for lunch despite not having a reservation, which we really appreciated. The food was decent--not extraordinary, but certainly not bad. It's a reliable option if you're looking for a casual beachside meal, though not necessarily a culinary standout. . read more

Loved the outside seating and scenic location of the restaurant. Decently priced and yummy food was an attractive offer :) In $60, we got: - lychee martini 5/5- loved the unique combo and perfect taste - coconut shrimp 5/5 - includes 6 pcs with a yummy ginger based dipping sauce which really enhanced the flavors - fish and chips 5/5- 3 pcs of mahi mahi with good fries made this a perfect staple Clean restrooms! Defucting one star - The service was kinda lame coz if u want to sit outside on a week night then u have to do self-service at the bar (with full menu) and the seats needed cushions for outdoor seating which were missing and that made them uncomfortable for eating a meal. read more

Castaway is an absolute must! It's one of our favorite breakfast spots everytime we come to the island! It's such a cozy place, and the food is beyond delicious. Nicole is one of the best servers ever, and so very attentive and kind! Thank you Nicole, and thank you Castaway for never disappointing! read more

It's our last night here in Maui and this was my favorite meal :) I wish we'd gone here more! I ordered the fish and chips, sometimes when I order fish and chips they are really greasy and make me slightly nauseous from the batter.. these were perfect! Not greasy at all! I'd compare the batter to a nicely seasoned pancake batter and the tartar sauce was lemony and delicious! I'm from Seattle and these were my favorite by far! Service was great, and it has indoor/outdoor seating. Ps. If you aren't staying in the hotels around it, it may be tricky to find, drive past the golf course into the parking area, park the closest to the walk way to the restaurant as possible as long as it isn't covered parking I believe you're ok. read more

My family and I love Castaways! It's one of our must do's as soon as we touch down on the island. It's a beautiful walk from any of the hotels along Kaanapali Beach. Breakfast is our favorite but we have been known to catch lunch here too - a lot ;) Beautiful views, wonderful team, quick service (almost too quick) and great food. read more

I sat at bar for breakfast. Service and food was good. Reasonably priced. Over looks the ocean

This place is very nice the service and ambiance was beautiful. The hamburgers are what you'd wish all burgers were made like. The only thing that I'd stay away from is the fish tacos. They were plated fine but the taste was very underwhelming. One last thing the place is hard to find, they need better signage. read more

Great breakfast place with incredible views. Eggs Benedict was excellent and the staff were super friendly. Get there early to the best view spots. read more

Well I thought it was only fair to thank Brian for another great experience at Castaways. We've been in Maui for 14 days and we came back a third time to enjoy the view, the food, and the service. We saved our favorite place for our last night. So impressed with the friendly staff and our food was delicious. Thank you Castaways! read more

The food was excellent. I had a Cajun fish sandwich and got them to add bacon. Delicious! My friend got a chicken sandwich which she ate all of. The show stopper was the molten lava cake, which was to die for!!! read more

Hidden gem on the Kaanapali Maui resort strip. Off the board walk tucked away on a green patch of grass just by the beach with scenic views of the ocean, this casual dinning experience serves remastered versions of Hawaiian local treats & drinks for all three meals. Its very kid friendly and has lawn games adjacent to the outdoor patio. Evenings feature local musicians and gas lit torches. A little bit on the pricey side, but par for the course for the resort area. We ended up eating here almost every day of our one week vacation; we're big fans of the owners, TS Restaurants, who also run some of our favorite San Diego eateries. Highly reccomend! read more

The food just wasn't that good. I got breakfast and did not enjoy it. The toast seemed stale too. It was confusing to find this place as well, both the location to park and how to find the restaurant (restaurant is for some reason nowhere near the sign on the building with the restaurant's name). I had to call and get put on hold for way too long just to ask where to go. You have to go to the hotel lobby first, and I had to wait in line behind people checking out of the hotel, just to get a parking pass to park to eat at the restaurant. Not very convenient at all. View from the restaurant is really good and that's the best feature here. read more

Excellent food with good menu choices. Friendly service with seating next to beach with great views of whales.

Friendly servers and quick seating for a later lunch. Might be okay for breakfast? Located on a vacation timeshare condo resort. Pretty flavorless fish tacos with stale (Costco?) tortilla chips and salsa that tastes more like ketchup. My relatives from the Midwest that are over seventy and have stomach issues would like the food. Some outdoor tables with a view of the ocean. Meh read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. As you can see in the photo, the view is stunning, set right on the beach. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the entire restaurant is open, so the trade winds are flowing through. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The drink, Paradise Punch, was super yummy. I had the salad, which was fresh and crisp, and my husband had the cheeseburger and at the suggestion of the waitress, he added a slice of pineapple. As it turns out, the pineapple made the burger. He was so impressed and said it was the best burger he had while in Maui. I am adding Castaway Cafe to my places to vist the next time I am in Maui. read more

Food, was good, service great and beautiful ocean view! A very Hawaiian feel! Loved it!

This restaurant is the best spot for breakfast of lunch. And best of all it's 30 feet from the sand with perfect views. Try the banana pancakes. Mmmmm..... EXTREMELY REASONABLE PRICES!! read more

Came here after a nice day at the beach and this food was great! I actually stayed in the area that this restaurant was located at and I really wanted to come here and try it. The Loco Moco was good my only problem was that the burger patty was not the medium that I ordered but it still it was a good meal. Came back later at night and ordered a Piña Colada and that was actually really great too! The workers were nice as well and that helped create a nice and friendly environment. read more
