Lovely cocktail bar that conveniently converts into a small club later at night. When we stopped by there were barely any folks and within 30 mins that place was buzzing with locals and tourists alike. The cocktails here were fabulous and wish we could stay longer but the music was too loud to even sit and have a drink. While its a cool spot it is not my vibe but I will stop by for cocktails for sure. Cheers! read more

Fabulous drinks. Arrive early and you can play some board games and get a stamp to return later when it's busy. But honestly, we shouldn't have left. This is easily a place you can stay all night at. read more

This place isn't what it used to be. Worst service ever. The bartender tried hustling us $20 per song request. Mind you we were a party of 8 buying round after round and tipping well. She was rude and obnoxious. Get yall a new bartender before she drives all your customers away cause I definitely will not be returning- especially if she's working. read more

This place is as magical as a unicorn eating an all beef hotdog wrapped in fried bologna. Spectacular service by the man behind the bar they call Nick. Although his attention span rivals that of a gnat, he's a master of his own beautiful universe. One moment you're visiting Mars and the next he's making his rib tattoo dance for $1's Don't forget to tip the cat dj's and punish your liver. PS Nick, good luck with your upcoming career move. Gay porn should be so lucky to have you and your red rocket. Get em tiger!!! read more

We decided to bar hop on our last night in Kihei, Maui and we chilled at this bar first, which was the best choice. The owner/bartender Nicolas is like your rad cousin cuz he's cool as sh!t and hilarious! He makes the vibe even better. The DJ was playing some sick songs and my body never stopped moving Come visit and stay for awhile read more

Horrible service, rude, arrogant, bartender trying to collect $20 just for song request. Never going here again. Being a local, you would think that there would be better service but no!!! Never again read more

Be aware of your surroundings as the bar will do nothing to help you. They don't care if you get picked on by locals.

Best cocktail bar I've found on Maui. Nick and Aaron do an amazing job and John the owner is often here and a solid dude. Cheers! read more

Horrible drinks. Poor security as well I would avoid at all cost. This place is unsafe for tourists.

Loved the vibe in vibe bar!! It was a bit hard to find which gives it that speakeasy feel. We got there right when it opened, and it's definitely a vibe!!! Graffiti tagged on walls and ceiling, great Christmas decorations with Jack Skellington and a skeleton on the pole who was a MOOD LOL. Nice bartender, drinks not quite up to the menu on Yelp but so eager to please and make sure you leave with a smile on your face. Go visit if you want something different from a tiki bar, stay for the hospitality. read more

The bar was dead. The bartender was excellent. He was full of stories, jokes and taught me on yo play the ring game

I arrived about 9:20 on Friday night. Clearly too early. At least another hour before dj started, and still longer before people showed up. I had a very tasty lemon drop. Really cute girl behind the bar, and to be honest, the bartender was not a bad looking guy. Mostly a young crowd. Props to the white guy with red beard who seemed to know the words to every song - mostly hip hop songs I did not know. DJ freaked me out. We were chatting outside and he asked how I was doing. Good, I said. He asked how about inside? "I saw you groovin but I also see a sadness." I lost my wife to a heart attack last month. After a little while, two attractive ladies came in and sat by me. The super cute blonde says, these guys hitting on me - I could be their mother. I was surprised. Thought, okay must be early 40's. Turned out she was only six years younger than me. After being with one woman for 27 years, I got no game. So I let Sara(h) from the steakhouse slip away. Certainly nice to know women in my age range can look that good. Overall, cool place, nice vibe. Everyone was cool, no matter age, race, whatever. One guy said to me "you look like old money" that's cool because that's the look I strive for. Lots of fist bumps and handshakes and just good vibes. I would go back. read more

Ordered the bartender's special, got a killer sour whisky with a red wine float. Aaron worked the bar and he MADE the experience coming back asap. read more

Vibe Bar Maui - Sour whisky with a red wine float - Lounges Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

A nice and small cocktail bar in the Kihei triangle of bars and such. It's pricier than the rest of the bars but their cocktails are a tad bit fancier and really strong. There's only one door and no windows so it can get hot in here. They have one TV which was playing Space Jam and 90s music in the background (I think it was a 90s night). There are only 2 bartenders which one of them kept apologizing of how service sucks. Which is odd esp if you work for the place, but maybe it's the post-pandemic feel of so many tourists and not enough staff. Anyway, we came for one drink and left. They don't have a kitchen but you can bring in your own food. The drinks are good and a unique blend of flavors. read more

My girlfriend and I visited this bar back in May, so this review is a little overdue. The bartenders here were beyond friendly, offering great suggestions the entire time we were there. We had 6 cocktails totals and each of them were incredibly tasty. If you're looking for a bar in the area with chill vibes and delicious cocktails, then look no further and check this place out! read more

A hidden gem! Don't miss this place! When I go to the bars with my friends this is always the second stop on our list because Friday/Saturday around 9-12p the DJ is always great. The dance floor is small but mighty. Really cool bar and great drinks! read more

Went bar hopping in Maui and this place was poppin'! Not only were they playing some of my favorite throw backs, but the DJ's set just makes you wanna get on the dance floor and show everyone your moves. Drinks were great & the female bartenders were hyper focused on tending to everyone's drink orders. They should really take off the Yelp check in deal though because went I went they didn't honor it :(. So don't expect to get 20% off your first cocktail! Other than that the decor and environment are super fun. Try coming in a group though because you'll get your run in with typical creepy touchy guys, ick. read more

I really like this bar. They have great craft cocktails and the bartenders are super nice. I would like if they added more craft ingredients in the future. I wanted a whiskey sour with egg whites but they dont have eggs. I would go back. read more

If you're ever in Maui and you don't swing by Vibe Bar, I honestly don't know what you're doing with your life. Picture this: the ocean breeze, the perfect sunset, and Nick--the bartender with the skills of a cocktail wizard and a personality that could charm the socks off a hermit crab. Let's talk about Nick for a second. This guy doesn't just make drinks--he transforms them. I asked for a Mojito, and he somehow made it taste like it was made by a celestial being who has been perfecting mojito for eons. I'm convinced he's got a secret potion that makes you instantly feel like you're in a beach-side resort, even if you're technically just sitting in a local bar. He's the kind of guy who can make you feel like family in 30 seconds while serving drinks with a smile that's somehow even brighter than the Hawaiian sun. But here's the thing--Nick's got something special going on in his life... and by "something special," I mean he was rocking a massive... bugle. Yes, you read that right--he's got a bulge right in the crotch area that looks like it could be hiding an instrument of some kind. Is it a magic bugle? A hidden flask? Or just the world's greatest mystery? Who knows! All I know is, he made an amazing Mojito, and I spent the next 20 minutes wondering if I could casually ask about it without being too obvious. Spoiler alert: I couldn't. In short, Vibe Bar is a must-visit. Great drinks, great vibe, and a bartender who's definitely a legend. Just don't stare too hard at his crotch area--you might get distracted and miss the fact that he just made you the best drink of your life. read more

Aaron made the experience! Thanks Aaron' drinks were amazing he made the evening so fun for my party of 8

The bartender was super friendly, the drinks were good and it's a chill little vibe, also decorated for Halloween! read more

Vibe Bar Maui - a man on stage with a microphone - Lounges Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Love this little "dive" bar hidden away in Maui. The inside is so artistically creative, colorful and loud it was very unique. The bartenders were generous with their alcohol and their list of specialty drinks kept us coming back to the bar for more. They even had a drink that was flaming! When we got there around 9pm there was hardly anyone there, but by the time we left close to midnight it was packed. Seemed like a pretty mixed crowd, nothing shouted "LGBT" but it was filled with diverse friendly people. Almost never made it here because their website was deleted, thought it was closed. I'd be willing to do a website for them if they want! Will definitely come back next time we are on the island. read more

Stunning place, brilliant vibe, has a New York City speakeasy feel. Austin is the best ever, ask for Austin. If you're in the bar, the drinks she made were out of this world. It's a cozy please with an amazing vibe. Austin was nice enough to accommodate our preferences. We had a blast and would highly recommend this bar to anyone visiting the area and looking for a great place for a fun evening. Check it out! read more

We walked in and tonight expecting the old school, hole in the wall, gay bar vibe tonight. Ladies and Gentlemen....this place is the next best kept secret of Kihei. Jessie and her husband were given free reign to remodel not only the inside of experience but most importantly...the cocktail menu. You want service with a personal touch by someone who knows their locally sourced liquor and ingredients inside and out...this is your place. You want the best pisco cocktail you've have since sitting in Chile itself? This is your place. Imagine a cocktail...making it 10x better...The Vibe is now your new home. You can say thank you later. Make sure you ask Jessie for the Prickly Pisco. We literally named it tonight! read more

Great times at Vibe! Small and comfortable great music and drinks, we stayed in Kihei for a week and visited about 3x !

vibe is a straight up vibe. popped in while on maui filming a music video and nicky the owner got us lit, gave us a stuffed unicorn?? and made flaming drinks. took us around the area to grab some nightlife b-roll too. 15/10 would recommend, no better place to have a good time that you won't remember on the island. plus the dj spun everything from deep house to rage against the machine, and her boots were the flyest i've seen read more

Such a cute bar. It's small but drinks are strong and they have games if you come with a group or even if it's a party of two! Would definitely come again before we leave! read more

This place was awesome, Nick was whatever and his little dirt dog. I appreciate the effort the owner made with spots to check out. Super good drinks and music, the staff were very helpful on deciding what to do for the week. Great recommendations read more

By far the worst service I ever received at a bar. Disclaimer, the drinks were great. Service was absolute trash. I order, chill, and eventually finish my drink. I'm literally picking my teeth with the toothpick that came with my cocktail. And I'm sitting at the bar. i.e. I clearly wanted another drink. BOTH bartenders checked on the two women sitting at a table behind me and never asked me if I wanted another drink. It had gotten busier since I first walked in, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt despite feeling ignored sitting at the bar. Out of frustration, I ask for another drink. Bruh. The bartender made me another cocktail and poured it in my original glass lmao I can't make this shit up. That's like ordering an appetizer, finishing it, then your server putting your entrée on your appetizer plate. And he would have been ok with it had I not said something. I asked for a fresh ice cube and he decided to do it right. Gave me a fresh ice cube in a new glass. His excuse when I called him out was that they were trying to conserve water. Lmao It costs nothing to do the bare minimum, and this guy couldn't even do that. I wish I was making this up. read more

We are from Las Vegas, and have been on the island for 4 days. We decided to check out this place on our last night. Surprisingly, the drinks are very good, they are well made. The owner is very friendly and attentive. He aims to make everybody happy with their drinks. I have to say this place makes the best drinks on the island. read more

Small, vibrant, friendly spot...not fancy but not a dive bar....nice drinks, low-key, a bit hidden away on the backside of the buildings facing the streets and parking lot in "the triangle"..just find the much more raucous "Life's a Beach" and circle around the structure....no food but can bring in a pizza from a few steps away. read more

So glad we stumbled upon this place while waiting around for our dinner reservation. This cocktail bar is amazing! It felt like we were transported to a completely different atmosphere in there. Speakeasy-esque but also very laid back and local feeling. Love the plants. I ordered a mezcal cocktail that was really delicious - with mezcal, tequila, lemon, lime, orange, egg white, bitters and some sort of hot pepper/spice. Winning combo. It was also surprisingly good prices ($12 on a craft cocktail) vs the insane tourist/Maui prices we had seen on mixed drinks all vacation ($18+). Wish we could have visited once more before leaving the island! read more
