    The pros for this location are that it is really the only Starbies along the Wailea Beach stretch of resorts. This means if you are a Starbucks loyalist or addict, you have an opportunity to satisfy yourself with a consistent experience if you are visiting here. The cons for this location are that it is really the only Starbies along the Wailea Beach stretch of resorts. This means you will be held hostage to resort pricing for your consistent experience if you are visiting here. Located in the row of lobby shops at the Marriott Beach Resort, I like that it opens fairly early for the jet-lagged masses and they also run a small remote counter just outside the shop serving plain drip coffee during peak morning rush hours since the inside store lines can be long when busy. But the lines are managed well with several roped stanchions herding you through, a lot like an amusement park line for a popular ride. The small interior is standard Starbucks with cheerful staff but it is busy and loud enough during rush hours that it would not be a place that you would choose to work or socialize unless you enjoy the risk of the masses overhearing your conversation or seeing what you are working on. The real reason I am giving this a mediocre rating is simply because it is so much more expensive than it should be. For reference, a Grande (medium) black coffee at a suburban, fly over Minnesota shop runs $3.20 with tax. That seems to me to be already expensive for a standard cup of coffee. At this Maui location, it will set you back $5.08 all in. I do get that it is in a expensive tourist resort zone, but it really is close to a 60% markup for a simple cup of coffee which seems abusive. However, I guess we are the foolish ones for paying it and they are the smart ones for charging it knowing that people are likely to pay it once they walk in the store. It is nice to have a decent cup of coffee to enjoy the morning while on vacation. I just wish it didn't hit the wallet so hard.

    Conveniently located at the Wailea Beach Resort you can get your cup of coffee without living the grounds. I tried the pineapple and coconut milk drink served over ice and really enjoyed the tropical flavors. Let me warm you this place gets packed in the mornings so maybe an afternoon visit is better if you want to try something. They close at 5pm unless you really need that morning coffee then you have to wait. You will also find cute gift items with Hawaiian designs and logos on them.

    Unlike most of my reviews, this one is going to be short and sweet. This Starbucks is located at the Wailea Beach Resort so I'm assuming that most of the patrons are resort guests. If you are not a resort guest, there is plenty of parking in the resorts parking garage and then the shop is a hop, skip and a jump from the check-in desk. The resort partners with Starbucks in order to treat the guests to a complimentary tall drink {specialty drinks included}, the pastry of the day as well as a fruit cup. This was a wonderful way to start the morning as the Hubs must start the day with a Chai Latte and I sure do love an Iced Green Tea to get me going! The team is very accommodating - I have a few allergies and they were able to swap out the pastry of the day for any pastry that fit my dietary restrictions. Now, take your breakfast, walk down to the beach and enjoy the gorgeous view! My main reason for this review is the beyond amazing staff! This location is jammed packed in the morning but the team here does not skip a beat and has huge smiles on their faces the entire time. They remember the guests as they come in and have lovely and genuine conversations as they fill the orders. To say that it's service with a smile is a huge understatement - It was so greatly appreciated and so wonderful to see these fabulous ladies each day during our stay!

    Starbucks at the Marriott Wailea Beach Resort

    Bottom Line: Standard Starbucks inside the Wailea Beach Resort accessible via the front promenade. Somewhere I saw the resort advertising that this Starbucks is the only one in Wailea. It seems sad to me with so many local coffee companies in Maui, serving legit Hawaiian coffee that Starbucks is still a thing. Anyway, I had a voucher for a free coffee so I did visit this location. To me, it seemed like a typical Starbucks that I come across on the mainland. There are tables indoors and outdoors but if time allows, I would recommend taking the nearby stairs down past the hotel's pools to the beach path.

    You're lucky enough to get a real Starbucks actually IN your resort (and not a cart that merely serves Starbucks coffee "proudly") so it's tough to complain. This is a full Starbucks with all of the food and coffee drinks that you would expect. If you want to drink a hot PSL on August 30 on the beach in Maui, you can do that. Since it's the only Starbucks at the resort and within 10 miles, it's also insanely busy. On top of that, Marriott rewards members can get free continental breakfast, so this place is a bit insane. The three mornings we went here, it was a Starbucks quality experience. On the last day (Labor Day) I believe the staff was reduced and it was a bit slower. If you want your coffee instantly, go somewhere else because they are busy. If you get a free breakfast, leave a couple of dollars for a tip and don't whine, these people working are hustling. If you want a cheap cup of coffee, don't go to 1. A Starbucks 2. At a Resort 3. On Maui. I am so grateful this was an option and appreciate the hard work of the people here.

    Certainly a "real Starbucks store" in that you can get anything off a Starbucks menu. I've never had a problem using my Starbucks card to purchase items. The processing speed at this location using the Starbucks card is slower than most, but not all, mainland stores. Being operated out of a hotel property they will not allow you to redeem your Starbucks earned rewards for complimentary food or drinks. Also expect to pay a premium for your purchase. The inflated prices go along with it being located in Hawaii and the hotel charges associated with the location. I have enjoyed the most wonderful fresh tuna wrap here. They make up a limited number and sell out frequently. In fact I lost out today. The tuna is incredible; blended with crispy salad and a chorus of edible island delights makes this lunch treat one of my absolute favorites anywhere. I appreciate the staff as well as I've always been treated well even though they may be extremely busy, even for a Starbucks location, in the morning with the rush of Hotel guests lining up. Four instead of five stars for not participating in Starbucks redeeming rewards program and the really inflated prices. Aloha & enjoy!

    This review is actually for their Lahaina location. I've had Maui Matcha before at their location…read morein The Shops at Wailea, so I was excited to stumble upon this spot at The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas, Ka'anapali. It's a cute little stand just past the lobby on the right. easy to access whether you're staying at the resort or just stopping by. The menu is simple and straightforward, offering classic matcha drinks along with a few signature options. We tried the Honey Lavender and the Honey Cinnamon, and both were really good. The Honey Lavender stood out--it had a sweet, floral flavor that blended with the matcha in a way that oddly reminded me of Fruity Pebbles (in a good way!). The Honey Cinnamon was tasty too, though the cinnamon was a bit overpowering and took over most of the drink's flavor. The staff were friendly and helpful with recommendations, which made the experience even better. I'd definitely recommend anyone staying at the resort to give it a try and locals should stop by too if you're in the area and craving a solid matcha.

A great add to the plaza where sipping on a matcha makes your shopping experience more enjoyable. The woman who took our order and made the matcha was pleasant and helped my wife and I. The menu is straight forward and ordering is easy. Drinks: My wife wanted to try the lilikoi matcha and she really loved it. The lilikoi made the otherwise bitter matcha sweeter and tastier. I thought it had the perfect depiction of lilikoi. They have oat, soy and almond milk available. Overall, I would recommend Maui matcha for your matcha needs. As a California resident and matcha snob, the matcha is better than average and good quality.

Ordering off the menu was also a great option. I got the fried rice and galbi, which came with sides and were all delicious. One thing my friend could not stop talking about was the poke, which was slightly on the spicier side but fresh, soft, and very tasty. This place has it all, and you really cannot go wrong. It might be a bit more on the expensive side depending on what you get, but it is pretty in line with the rest of Hawaii's pricing. Do yourself a favor and check it out. You can also grab groceries and snacks while you are there.

I was already doing the math and thinking , "Eh, we might be here awhile." But nah, good timing. People were finishing up, bussing tables, and bam, maybe 20-30 minutes tops. Not bad at all. While we was waiting, they come out with waffle samples for everyone in line. I mean... who does that? That's how you keep people from getting all hangry. Instant good vibes, the whole line outside was just smiling and waiting patiently. Finally get seated and both the hostess and waitress were super nice--real friendly, no rush, no attitude. In the front they had mushroom soup on the specials board, so we figured we go sample um. I had them bring a cup of soup out to start along with my wife's coffee. Gotta be honest--when I dipped my spoon in, I was already judging. Looked kinda thin, not creamy like other mushroom soups I've had. I was thinking, "Ahh here we go." Took one spoonful and immediately had to humble myself. That soup was money. Like, stop-talking-and-just-eat. My wife tried it and confirmed that this soup was "winnahs" . Deep mushroom flavor with the right amount of seasoning. It also came with a little piece of focaccia toast which I would have really enjoyed but had to take my wife's word for it since she ate um all . Should've ordered the bowl. Rookie mistake. For my main, I went with the original eggs Benedict. Portions were a little on the small side, but with the roasted potatoes, I was good. Didn't leave hungry, didn't need to loosen the belt--perfect middle ground. My wife got the strawberry waffles and yeah... those were legit. She's not a syrup person, so she asked for more whipped cream. The waitress comes back with a little mountain of whipped cream in the little silver ramekin. All in all, solid spot. Friendly people, ono food, and little touches that make you feel taken care of. We will be heading to Cafe Kaila again to try some other stuff like the "chicken and waffles", and next time, I'm not playing around with the soup. Bowl, Garans.
