Cute little store with a nice interior and a huge selection of flavors to choose from. The service was great the girls working were really nice when I was taking a while to order cause I wanted to try eve try thing. The ice cream itself so good I got biscoff which is now my favorite and beach bum really good banana flavor with pecans. I tried other flavors like vanilla and Caramel. Really good consistency nice and smooth and the right amount of sweetness. Along with with that hot kamaaina which is always a plus. Definitely recommend will be coming back to try others things like their fudge and shard ice!

Ono Gelato Company Located in Whalers Village…read more If you're strolling through Whalers Village and craving something sweet, stop here immediately. Ono Gelato is the real deal, and you can taste it in every bite. Their gelato is made daily from scratch by a third-generation gelato maker from Torino, Italy, using whole milk, heavy cream, and egg yolks, with select ingredients imported directly from Italy. The authenticity truly shows. I tried the Coffee Crunch and Cookies & Cream, and both were outstanding. The Coffee Crunch was rich and smooth with bold coffee flavor, packed with macadamia nuts and chocolate chunks that added the perfect balance of creamy and crunchy. I'm completely obsessed. The Cookies & Cream was ultra-creamy and generously loaded with cookie pieces, not icy or overly sweet. They also offer a wide variety of flavors, from island favorites like coconut, mango, and macadamia nut to classics such as chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, hazelnut, and Sicilian pistachio. There is truly something for everyone. Creamy, authentic, and absolutely delicious, this is one of the best gelato spots on Maui. We will be back every single visit. Yelp Tip: A perfect post-beach treat or dessert while exploring Whalers Village.

Then something caught our eye about tastings upstairs. So up we went. Fabulous breezy little open air bar with plenty of seating and a view! A full menu of drinks and nibbles, and a gazillion ways to pair chocolate and alcohol. Our server Carrie was fun and friendly and knowledgable, and took great care of us. Mr. M and I each had a glass of red with our chocolate pairings, and our companions tried the port and liquor pairings. So much fun and so delicious. What a lovely way to spend some time.

Well, it would've been fine had our entire table received their order. The brownie was not good. The build your own brownie "experience" was lacking. Only brownie and ice cream was included. At least give a topping included, then up-charge for more. On top of that, the $1.50 for sprinkles was a disgrace when the kid didn't get even $.10 worth. There was a tad confusion around the alcohol as well. Understand there's permit restrictions but it would've been nice to know when placing the order instead of when the drink was delivered. Signage isn't clear either. The "only 21 and over past this point" should have a blurb about no alcohol in the main seating. Oh well, we worked with it. Oh, and the sweat that dripped into the ladies plate who was doing the tasting experience was gross - even she said something and got attitude back from the upstairs hosts. Again, three stars awarded as we didn't really partake in anything outside of the cafe top level. Giving the benefit of the doubt the rest of the experience would've probably been good.

You don't have to be a guest of the resort to visit. It's open to the public. Simply enter the Marriott resort from the paved trail along Ka'anapali Beach. Look for the signs. An easy way to spot this place from the trail is to look for the beachside Starbucks. Beach Walk Kau Kau To Go is right next door. This was one of our favorite spots to hit up while at the pool, along with the Lokelani Pool Bar nearby: https://www.yelp.com/biz/lokelani-pool-bar-lahaina. We all loved the soft serve here. I mean what's better than going to the pool in Maui with a delicious soft serve in-hand? It doesn't get much better than that. My favorite was the Rainbow Soft Serve with the blue Hawaii coconut, mango, and strawberry flavors swirled. Incredibly delicious. I also happen to love soft serve in general. The soft serve here was a real treat, also for my wife, sister, and nieces, both the pool and the beach. While the soft serve here is popular, there's much more on the menu. They offer a bunch of standard "American chain food" like nachos, wings, chicken tenders, onion rings, burgers, tacos, quesadillas, fish and chips, chicken Caesar wraps, flatbread pizza, salads, sandwiches, and hot dogs. I will say the food isn't cheap. Examples of some of the prices during our stay included five chicken tenders for $19, a burger for $20, two fish tacos for $23, and a foot-long hot dog for $17. All food is served in takeout containers. This is a food stand/counter, not a sit-down restaurant. You can get coffee here too, even though there's a Starbucks next door. A 12-oz cup was $2.75 and a 16-oz cup was $3.00. Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Sierra Mist, fruit punch, and Mug Root Beer 16-oz fountain sodas were $3.00 each and 20-oz sizes were $3.50 each. Service was great. The staff was polite, friendly, and efficient. Each soft serve serving cost $6 before tip and we had them conveniently charged to our room. If you're not staying at the Marriott, bring a card because they do not take cash.

It was also pretty large vs a typical snow cone. Maui Wowie is cherry and pina colada and I got it with a vanilla snowcap. Really good, a really nice first impression for this Hawaiian treat.

But we didn't. And it was due to logistical decisions made by staff. Let me explain... We had a 7:15pm reservation but arrived to a large crowd waiting out front and no one at the hostess stand. We were able to check in closer to 7:30. I felt assured when Qiana politely told an impatient patron that she had to seat those with reservations first. But that party of four, and others, were seated before us. After 40+ minutes waiting, Qiana apologized for a table that was lingering and asked if we wanted to wait for a table upstairs or be seated on the crowded lanai (with several young children) or wait a bit for a table upstairs. I chose upstairs. We waited for that lingering party to depart; no one left. Then 15-20 minutes later, we were seated upstairs. That was one hour after our reservation at 8:15pm. The logistical decisions and bad luck continued because there was a large party of ~10 also seated upstairs and they took priority over us. Our entrees arrived 45 minutes later (9pm by now). By this time, my family was very hungry and a little mad at the situation. I felt disrespected for the circumstances. The staff was nice, but actions were speaking louder than words. I usually rave about food in my reviews, but the long wait and how situations were handled (there were more I'm not describing) colored our special evening out and how the bites were received. Our evening at Sale Pepe turned out to be a low light, instead of the highlight I expected, from our Maui holiday.
