First time visiting and it was amazing and what you'd expect when your in Hawaii. Was greeted with a warm aloha! She didn't speak much but was very nice. The shave ice flavors were just the right amount of sweet and sour. The music being played was local island music and relaxing. Pleasantly located across the street from the beach and right next door to the ABC store. read more

We came here before they closed and they were kind enough to allow us to order. I got the cherry watermelon shaved ice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle. It was so good! Make sure you visit here when in Maui. I like their shave ice best read more

I stopped by here 2 nights ago with my father for an evening treat. We were walking home from dinner and happened to pass Da Kine Shave Ice when we decided to stop. This shop is located right across from the Kamaole I beach. The inside is fun as they have a lot of merchandise for sale and most of it is loud and bright with an array of colors. They also have a big menu board on the wall with numerous flavors. Their specials all seemed to be combinations of three different flavors with a scoop of ice cream on the bottom. For my shave ice on this day I went with ube, lilikoi, and coconut. It took somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes from ordering until I had it and was on my way back to our condo. As I walked back I was able to try it. Starting with the ice itself, it was fairly finely shaved but I did get a few larger pieces. The flavors all tasted decent and were good representations of what they were supposed to be, even if they weren't made from real fruit puree. I enjoyed it for a few bites but the overall sweetness quickly caught up to me. About halfway through my regular size I had to stop eating it because it became too sweet for my taste. That is of course a personal preference and if you like a sweeter shave ice, this could be a good option for you. The bottom line for me is that I probably would not stop by here again in the future. My shave ice ended up being a bit too sweet for my palate and I would rather go somewhere that better matches my taste. read more

I love the homey, colorful vibe this place has to offer. The lady at the counter was super kind & friendly, answered our questions, and patiently waited while we juggled through our decisions. She even gave us a stamp card with several extra punches. Smart move! Altho we did not end up completing the stamp card. The coconut ice cream was absolutely delicious. The shaved ice was so-so primarily as the syrup was not real and tasted fake. Nevertheless, one of my daughters was more than willing to come here on repeat! read more

This shave ice melted perfectly in the mouth! The flavor was rich and did not taste super artificial. The spot is next to a gas station. The days we went there was no line and we got our shave ice quickly. There is indoor seating available but the space is small. The staff was kind and provided us a punch card. read more

The gal behind the counter was so sweet and friendly She recognized my friend and offered her a punch card with a few extra punches because she wasn't offered her one the last time she was in. We ordered 2 Rainbow shave ice and let me tell you, the portions were generous! Every bite was creamy, sweet, melt-in-your-mouth-pillowy goodness. It was like eating cotton candy fluffy Ian's frosty clouds. We will definitely return. read more

Da Kine Shave Ice - Rainbow Shave Ice - Shaved Ice Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Stopped by Da Kine Shave Ice for a quick frozen treat -- even though I was still feeling pretty full from lunch, I couldn't resist. I went with a kid-size (perfect portion) and mixed banana, blue vanilla, and dreamsicle flavors with a snow cap on top. Sweet, refreshing, and just the right size to hit the spot without overdoing it. The stand is tucked off the road, attached to the side of a gas station, so it's easy to miss if you're not looking for it. While I wouldn't call it the best shave ice on the strip, it's a solid option if you're nearby and in need of a cooldown. Great little pit stop within walking distance. read more

Was less than a mile from where we were staying, and it wasn't too busy, which was really nice. We got we got the lava flow and Kihei Sunset. The ice was so finally shaving. It was really good and there was a lot of syrup in sauce on top. The decor was also nice and colorful and fair amount of seating inside and out. We got two regulars for two adults at the toddler and that was a little bit much next time you might do one regular and one kid size. Definitely gonna be going here multiple times during our visit. read more

My husband and I enjoyed our shave ice from Da Kine! The employees were super friendly and informative about shave ice and the flavors, and we enjoyed getting to eat our shave ice in the nice AC. We built our own and both got the kids size, which was plenty for us. Some of our flavors included guava, lilikoi, lychee, coconut, and shark blood - all of which were delicious and applied with just the right amount. We'll definitely be back the next time we're here in Maui! read more

This place is right across the street from the beach in a space that also has a gas station. The parking lot is small and crowded. The line was long and was by far the place that took the longest to serve the shaved ice. The wait is long and there is no bathroom. About $7 for a small with three flavors prices go up from there. read more

Loved the vibes of this shave ice spot. Very colorful inside with a robust menu of shave ice flavor options. Took awhile to get our 4 shave ice but they only had one person working so I definitely give them a pass there! The shave ice hit the spot on a warm day but we definitely had better while in Maui. Was nice of them to give us a stamp rewards card with an extra stamp :) We left it for our next Airbnb guest to enjoy a free shave ice! read more

We love coming here after spending the day at the beach. It's a little extra treat for us before driving home upcountry. The ice is like soft ice flakes, the flavors are yummy. The 3 size options are nice too. The girls, are always so friendly and actually remember us. It's the one stop shopping center where you can get gas, shop at the ABC store, rent some snorkel gear and grab a shave ice...and it's all walking distance from the beach which is directly across the street. You can't go wrong...why not grab a shave ice and walk across the street to watch the sunset...sounds like an epic time to me!!! read more

Da Kine Shave Ice - The picture shows you what we chose. We ordered 3 regular, 1 large, 1 small. - Shaved Ice Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

The space was really fun and reminded me of being a kid. They had really awesome flavour combinations, and unique flavoured ideas. I was really excited about having coconut ice cream in my shave ice as well. We got the jaws combination and the ice was a great texture and it looked massive. I think we arrived just as someone might've been heading out on a break so the weight was a little bit, but the guy who helped us with super friendly and would definitely recommend anyone in the area to come to Da Kine and get their shave ice! read more

Great shaved ice! Ice was fluffy, great flavors, and menu with pictures for us tourists .. loved the Hawaiian shaved ice.

Let me tell you right now: the Roy Rogers shaved ice from Da Kine Shave Ice is not playing around. This thing pulled up with cherry, cola, whipped cream, and a gummy lime on top like it knew it was the star of the show -- and it absolutely was. The texture of the ice? Fluffy perfection. Not chunky, not slushy -- just that perfect melt-in-your-mouth softness that proves these folks know their craft. The cherry + cola combo had me feeling like I was sipping an old-school soda float, except somehow better because it was cold, massive, and came in a cute cup. Whipped cream on top was a dreamy touch (not too sweet, just right), and the little gummy lime? A whole moment. Cute, tasty, and a lil' zesty flair for the win. 10/10 would demolish again. If you're in the area and not getting one of these, what are you doing?? read more

This was our fourth and least impressive shave I've stop on our tour de shave ice through Maui. Some loss of stars include the consistency of the shave ice (was not as powdery as my top pics) and the fact that we asked for just the three flavors of the Maui Island and no ice cream but were charged for the ice cream and the milk. That was weird and unfortunate as we would have just said the three flavors listed but thought we were pretty clear. Plus for the amount of flavors and the option for dye free or sugar free! Worth going to if you need those, not bad at all, just not our fav. read more

Came here because we were looking for some dessert and this place seemed well reviewed. Ended up choosing the Hawaiian and what I would say about this place is that there's nothing wrong with this place but there's nothing that stood out about it either. The ice cream was decent, the ice was well flavored throughout, but I couldn't help but feel that I was still missing something. It was missing a wow factor that I got when I tried Uluwani's. I think this place does scratch an itch and if you really want shave ice, this place can do fine. In my opinion, don't compromise, just go to Uluwani's. read more

Da Kine is conveniently located in the same plaza as ABC and a gas station. There's plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. Love how they have pre-made creations to choose from. Customer service was fair, not overly friendly nor rude. Our shaved ice was also fair - nothing I would crave or rave about. read more

This ice is different than the rest! A few other places the ice felt like chopped ice. This place was like snow flakes. They give you a buy 10 get one free punch card, if you have a large family / group you will eventually get a free one. Right next to ABC store across the street from the beach. read more

Great shave ice! Very friendly staff! Highly recommend. Second time here while back on Maui with family. Thank you.

Da kine shave ice is great especially because they're open later than most other shave ice shops so if you don't usually eat dessert items during the day like me it's perfect! The portions vary based on selection and their funky flavors are amazing, fully coat the ice all the way through and come with fun toppings. There is some seating inside and outside for larger groups. They also have a punch card system to eventually get one free so great for shave ice enthusiasts and locals! read more

Really fun spot! The decor and outside are very inviting. It's located across the street from a beach park and past a gas station. The person who served us was friendly and helpful.

Not the best. They were understaffed, so the line moves slow. Overall, it was very syrupy and wasn't as finely shaven as other places in my opinion. Just an OK place to get shave ice. read more

Outstanding! I go to Maui a lot as have family there. Best shave ice spot I've found to date. Service is good and friendly too. 100% agree with a prior review -- the passion fruit, lychee, and guava are especially good -- and even better with haupia as a topping read more

I don't like their shave ice. I came here once and I don't think I'll ever come back here, personally. Their flavors tasted off to me, but I'm not sure what exactly it was that was off. It almost tasted soapy/chemically. Also, the prices were insane!!!! I'm sorry, $3 to add a scoop of ice cream???? I get prices are skyrocketing in this economy but excuse me???? Almost everyone on island uses Roselani ice cream and not even ulu's charges $3!!!! I mean honestly that is just ridiculous. I could not get over those prices. You can definitely get better tasting shave ice and it'll be cheaper within a five minute walk of this place. read more

When you come to Hawaii, you have to get some shave ice! And if you are in Kihei, you should try this place, and you should get the Kihei Sunset! If you are like me and grew up with snow cones, you may think these are similar but you would be so wrong! These are so much better!! I was happy to have discovered shave ice but also very upset because the snow cone purveyors stole so much of my money for so many years because I think they just took a lazy person's approach to what should have been shave ice. Shave ice is fluffy and airy, and like their sign says, it melts in your mouth but more immediately than snow cones. The Kihei Sunset comes with some amazing tropical flavors and some vanilla ice cream at the bottom. SO GOOD!! So why only 4 stars? They don't have mochi! There is another more famous shave ice place which seems to have mochi so I will reserve that star until I try that place. read more
