    This little market gets full stars for presentation, convenience and for having almost everything you need, if you are staying in a villa at the Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resorts. When you walk in, it's inviting, well presented and extremely organized. In essence, it's an upscale, neighborhood grocery store. The reason why I docked two stars is be because you pay out the nose for that convenience. The yogurt I grabbed for breakfast was $1.79. When we later went to a supermarket, the same yogurt was $0.99. I don't care about $0.80 on a yogurt, but it's just a hard lesson when the same item is priced that differently when they are around the corner from each other. Lesson learned. The other star was because they served Starbucks coffee. I guess they need to consider the popularity of Starbucks with the masses, but Maui produces coffee locally, so it would have been a nice touch to have them support their local growers. Long and short of it, I gave them an a-ok! It's a pretty cool little spot, but some local java and fairer prices would make them shine!

    This supermarket is located inside the north tower of the westin resort in lahaina. I would never have gone here if it weren't for the welcome gift that westin was offering (ended up getting a free 20 dollar cold insulating bag for drinks). The cafe has just about everything you need so that you don't need to leave the resort. They have a liquor wine and beer section, prepared sandwiches and spam musubi, frozen food such as digiornos, yogurt, Starbucks coffee, fresh to go sandwiches made with boars head meat. If you consider how convenient and clean everything is here, you can't complain. Yes the prices are higher than your grocery store outside but what can you expect when you are at the westin in hawaii. If you compare shops in resorts like this I think this place is phenomenal.

    Very simple little market in a resort. Had salt, which we needed as our rental had none.

    Parking is plentiful and free! Watch out for the wild chickens and their babies in the parking lot…read more Yikes. This grocery store has everything you need, but of course at MAUI prices. I went to the deli and was curious about the different pokes. The butcher back there was super helpful! He asked if i wanted to try some stuff - um, yes! absolutely! I tried at least 3-4 different poke styles until i settled on the one with tuna and seaweed. so good. I also picked up some kimchi shrimp. I found a premade salad near the front, not in the veggie section. They have a lot of sushi options for grab and go, but you can also get it made fresh if you wait. They have a large hot bar like any whole foods would; the options looked delicious. Things like sliced turkey were so expensive, but like i said, MAUI prices. If you have a frequent shopper card, don't forget to use it at checkout. if you don't, sign up for one real quick. the savings are real. The high noons were going for $35 a box - yikes. My buddy saved at least $50 by signing up and all he was buying was high noons, beer and prosecco. My husband did not enter our phone number at checkout, so we did not save any money. We had selected two sale items, but apparently you don't get the sale without the shopper card. I had no idea until I saw his receipt later that day. I took the receipt back the following day, to customer service, and I explained the issue about the shopper's card, and they basically said - how much do we owe you? So I said about $9. Well, she gave me $11 back with tax as well! Hahaha. I guess what I was asking for was more difficult to do versus just giving me a random refund. either way, I was happy to have the money back. We visited the Safeway a couple times during our stay in Maui. Don't forget to bring your own shopping bag.

    Vons/Albertsons/Safeway, all the same…read more We visited this Safeway in Lahaina to grab some food and beverages for our condo we were renting for the week. The store anchored a multi-business strip mall with a good-sized parking lot. Even still, parking was a bit of a challenge. Whoa! The prices! Crazy expensive! 12-pack of Maui Brewing Bikini Blonde was nearly $27! Becky's seltzers were even pricier. Bottled water was nuts too! The store itself was clean, well-organized and well stocked. The employee at checkout was friendly. I punched in my phone number at checkout and received the applicable (Vons) member discounts.

    You can believe the hype about the Poke here. This wine and liquor store is tucked away at the top…read moreof a hill in somewhat of a mini industrial business area. Plenty of parking though as it's on a private lot. Let me tell you, the poke here is fire!!!! So fresh!!! Found this place here through Yelp, and the other Yelpers definitely did not disappoint. The store is super clean, and each staff member I encountered here were all very polite, and helpful. When you walk in, the Poke section is directly to your left. When we arrived, there was a line and for good reason. They had about 5 or 6 different kind of Poke's the days we went 7/29 and 7/31. I had the Spicy Ahi and the Tamura's one day. Then the Shoyu and Chili pepper the next. All which were extremely fresh and flavorful. Great to eat by itself, or you can elect for a Poke bowl, which gets you two scoops of rice with furikake and sesame seed (if you want) and two choices of poke. You won't regret it if you're a poke fan! We came here twice to satisfy our poke craving. Crazy how it's a large liquor and wine store, which I'm sure they get a lot of customers for. But the days we went, it mainly were both locals and tourists stopping in for just the poke. Just a heads up, I overheard a lady ask "will you have more tomorrow"? To which the employee said, "yes we have enough fish for the next 3 days" which tells me that they do run out or have days where their poke bar is closed. The poke bowl was $14.99 each and completely worth it. Best Poke I've tried so far in Maui! Give them a try!

    Updated with pictures!! Took 8+ months, but I was finally able to download my pics from the…read more"cloud". 5/31/22 *See SF Japantown Yelp - pictures to be uploaded if I can recover. Quality/Quantity - Small local supermarket that sells poke and alcohol, so you would think this would be PERFECT for someone like me! The poke was limited by the time we got here at 1:30pm ish. The poke looked fresh, and there was a long line; slightly unorganized. Not the business's fault, but the customers. I think everyone in line was trying to look into the case at the same time. Lots of other Maui and/or HI items for sale. Atmosphere - Plenty of free parking. Open 7 days a week from 10am until ?? See my picture. Starting 6/3/22 open daily from 10am to 6pm; as of 6/5 this has NOT been updated on Yelp. Poke hours differ, see picture - thank you for posting this! The bathrooms are right when you walk in, which is nice. No delivery service. No loyalty program - everyday low prices. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable prices, same or slightly above the other supermarkets. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1995 with your 12+ locations (includes markets and restaurants). 1920 Makitaro Tamura opened the first store. 1995 - Grandsons now own these locations.

    Really awesome chocolate farm in Maui that offers several tour options! Came a year before the fire…read moreand so happy that they are still operating today! Enjoyed their tour learning about their farms and sampling the delicious chocolate. It was so good we ended up buying over $100 of chocolate to bring back as gifts! The mango chocolate was amazing and I'm still using the insulated bag from our first trip as my lunch bag! You won't regret buying any of their chocolate or enjoying any of their amazing tours!

    If you came to West Maui, and didn't go chocolate tasting at Ku'ia, did you really visit Maui?…read more I mean, I had an amazing time on my vacation in Ka'anapali - but this was the absolute foodie highlight, better than any restaurant and a lot more reasonable! We skipped the pricey farm tour (we did coffee farm tours last year and are farmed out) and went straight to the chocolate café. They will give you a five piece tasting for free, either a dark, milk, or sugar-free flight. But why would you come here and just take... When you can also give back to folks in Lahaina rebuilding? So we got two free flights, one milk and one dark. My sweetie added on a drink, a pastry, and some very tasty chocolate and salted caramel gelato. I went with a make your own alcohol pairing, which was so much fun and very reasonable. For about $17, I got a shot of coconut rum with two chocolate pairings and a shot of premium Martiniquan JM volcanic rhum Agricole with another two chocolate pairings. And then I still had my free five pieces. What an amazing taste adventure, for cheaper than the price of a cocktail at a hotel bar or even a locally owned foodie place? I don't want to mess up your tasting - so you pick your favorites! But I normally don't like rhum agricole - and the pairings were such an amazing flavor adventure. Honestly, this is my number one recommendation in West Maui. Give the folks some business and have an amazing time! Oh, and they have jazz on Sunday nights' but I'm sure it's more crowded than than popping in during the day on a weekday. And also: the second floor tasting room has panoramic views of the ocean and around Lahaina. Check them out!

Nick was friendly, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job teaching us about the tropical plants and fruits grown on the farm. We learned a lot and appreciated how informative and engaging the tour was. The tour ended with a tropical fruit tasting, and the fruit was incredibly fresh, juicy, and sweet. It was one of our favorite parts of the experience. Feeding the alpacas was also a lot of fun, and our kids absolutely loved it. The farm also has zip lines and giant inflatable bouncing balls, so there is plenty to keep families entertained. Definitely worth checking out.

He started with some farm history and then he took us to see the alpacas. They were so cute and friendly. We all got to feed them and pet them. Next was the tour of the farm. He walked us through the many plants and fruits that grow on the property. For some we got to feel or taste them as he told interesting and funny stories. After our tour, he took us to a beautiful lookout with tables where we experienced a huge plate of tropical fruits and a glass of dragon fruit lemonade. It was all refreshing and delicious. This is a great experience and I highly recommend it.
