It's more than a fruit stand. Family owned and operated with unique curb appeal. It's eclectic, vibrant with personality. We stopped because it widely known for exotic fruit. We elected for two drinks: Sugar Cane juice and Pineapple Limeade. Both made fresh with sweetness. Now the Pineapple Limeade had lilikoi filled within the drink. I definitely favored the Sugar Cane juice. I loved the flavor of the pineapple limeade but the texture of the lilikoi were too tough for me to enjoy.
Who knew a fruit shack off a random road would be SO COOL. We got the large fruit bowl and 3 drinks. The price was a good chunk (~$70) BUT when will you ever do this again?! The fruit was delicious and the entire experience was 1000000/100. We played jenga and watched the ocean. So so fun
Mmmmm... I love fruit and had high expectations but the prices feel like a tourist trap. $18 for the small size assorted fruit plate I just can't justify getting it..... Would be nice if they had individual fruit options for cheaper. I love sugar cane juice and was disappointed at the $12 price point for a cup and I couldn't even get pure sugarcane juice - had to pick from one of the three "flavors" (lilikoi, ginger lime, and third one I don't remember). I opted for the lilikoi since the lady said it would be the most natural/mild and least overpowering the taste of the sugarcane. Sadly, that was not the case and the drink was very sweet... Just tasted like lilikoi juice with the slightest hint of sugarcane flavor. Disappointed fruit fan........ The lady was very friendly and did try to be helpful with her recommendations. The low review has nothing to do with her good service. I would only recommend stopping here for families with kids since it's a picturesque spot with nice seating area and games (croquet, etc.)
Drove past this spot and man does it catch your eye - uniquely colorful and vibrant with some fun games and seating options all around the small hillside property. Worth the quick stop but very expensive for what you get - $12+ for a juice is harsh :( but it was super fresh and so fun to hang in the gardens with all the chickens, ducks, etc! And very instagram friendly of course!
FRESH FRUIT- SO GOOD. The ambiance is amazing. Ocean view in the front of the shack and great service. The lady at the desk helped us out on what to pick for fruit this time of year! Such an amazing experience.thank you AND a very friendly cat I met!!
Such a cute spot to stop after visiting Waipi'o Lookout. I love the fresh fruits they have and also the different spots to enjoy your fruit. It is outdoors, so expect all types of bugs and animals to be nearby! I loved seeing the ducks and also the vibrant green geckos. I regret not buying a fruit platter but decided to grab a sugarcane drink with lilikoi. The drink had the right amount of sweetness and tartness. It was quite refreshing, especially for a hot day.
Bright fruit stand and farm by the side of the road. It's a good place to relax and enjoy the views of the ocean. There are tables and hammocks as well as a portapotty. Chicken and ducks roam the garden. I had a cup of lilikoi (passionfruit) sugar cane juice and a small fruit bowl. The juice was great but very sweet. The fruit bowl contains a mix of tropical fruit. It was ok. Some fruits were too sour but it might be because they were not in season.
Had a delicious fresh coconut from this fruit stand! The fruit stand has a small parking lot which is really convenient and lots of sitting areas. It is a super cute stand with hammocks to lounge, lots of colors and cute signs. They are cash only, but you can also use venmo. After drinking our coconut they carved it for us to eat the meat. They also had many other delicious looking fruits. The person who helped us was super friendly and it was great chatting with them. Highly recommend making a stop here while you are on the island!
This place is AMAZING!!!! Beginning with its natural beauty and location with amazing views. I loved Ziggy (dog) how he just launched at the entrance not bothered by anyone. Very friendly puppy. Great music with island vibe, plenty of colorful places to sit. Beautiful and extremely friendly young lady that helped us. I opted in for a large fruit bowl and it was delicious but also so pretty. Some of the fruit in my bowl I never had it my life. We also purchased a cold coconut water. I also never had it before so this was a treat. So refreshing. We stayed and chatted a bit with some other patrons before heading back to Kona. This was a great addition to our scenic drive. I HIGHLY recommend this business and plan on visiting again. Thank you!!!!! (Love)
This spot was such a great find. The fruit bowl and fresh coconut were delicious. Everything was perfectly ripe and refreshing. But what really made it stand out was the setting. It's more than just a fruit stand. It has a cute little farm setup with geese and baby ducks walking around. They were surprisingly interactive and made the experience even more fun. A peaceful and local stop that is absolutely worth it if you are in the area.
The large fruit bowl has a great variety of tropical fruits. They were all ripe and delicious, perfect after an ATV tour! The lilikoi sugarcane juice was super refreshing, would recommend on a hot day. Lots of seating and cute baby ducks and chickens on the property!!!
This fruit stand was little out of the way, but so so worth the effort. It's a small stand but there are lots of picnic tables surrounded by lush garden and a great views. There was a line forming when we were there. There is also WiFi and he accepts multiple payment options. We saw the combo fruit platter but it was so huge. It's basically sampling of all the fruits he has there all nicely chopped up. We tried their mangos bananas, and coconut and it was super fresh and sweet. Highly highly recommend!!
Well decorated and colorful on the side of the road on the hill. Eye popping. Didn't have as huge a fruit selection as I imagined when I heard" fruit snack", but perfect for the Instagram crowds. A little in the pricey side. Very nice folks working here to serve you.
This was such a cool unexpected stop on the way back from waipio lookout. The fruit tasted good, and the grounds had a lot of cute little decorations. They don't accept card so bring cash or zelle. They have wifi as the rest of the area is dead zone read more

This fruit shack is really cute, and for the ambiance, this is a total winner. The lilikoi lime sugar cane juice was really good, but for pricing and value for your money, this place is not stellar. If the service was a little better, it might make up for the total over pricing, but the lady manning the booth was extremely rude, when asked what fruit were in the fruit bowl she said "whatever's here." My dad also asked what brought her to Hawaii and she said "a plane". All things considered I wouldn't recommend. There's probably another one close by that's worth the stop. read more
Such a cute fruit stand!! The ice cold coconut was delicious & refreshing, and they helped us crack it open afterward so we could eat the inside. The tropical fruit bowl was beautiful and had a great variety of fruits, though some of them were quite sour. Parking was easy and convenient, and there were plenty of seats around. Service was super friendly. I'm glad we stumbled upon this spot! read more

If you're headed towards the Waipio Valley Lookout, stop here for a refreshing treat! My family almost drove pass this gem on our last day in the Big Island and so glad we made a U-Turn. I absolutely love coconuts and needed to have some before leaving the island. The vibe was very chill and everything looked so fresh! The worker (or owner) cut the coconut right in front of us with a machete! It was such a cool experience and the coconut was delicious! There was lots of other fruits but truthfully I was only there for the coconuts. Overall, amazing vibe and experience! Love supporting small businesses! read more

On your way to see Waipio valley, you definitely should come and stop at the Waipio Fruit Shack. When we visited, we tried the cold coconut and the white pineapple. If you have never tried a coconut, you should get one here because they will open it for you with a machete. Right, why go through all that trouble when you can have a professional do it for you. The coconut water from a green young coconut is clear and refreshing. After you drink all of it, bring it back to the staff member and she will open a coconut for you to eat. The "fruit/ flesh" of the coconut is white and sweet. This is the part that they make coconut shavings and haupia with. Super yummy. Probably one of the best bites I had on my trip with the white pineapple. When talking with the staff member, she said that she picked these white pineapples from a farmer in the neighborhood. The white pineapple when compared to the yellow variety was so sweet and the texture was smooth and less fibrous. This was probably the best pineapple I've had in my life and I consider myself a pineapple enthusiast. If you are only going to get one thing, get this white pineapple. Let's talk ambiance. OMG so cute and colorful. There are picnic tables for you to enjoy your fruits. You can enjoy the ducks that come by and if you get a kanack attack (feel sleepy after you eat), you can take a nap on the hammocks. This is a place to bring the kids, there is a sand box and a swing. Overall, the fruits are a little pricy, but I think if you are visiting Hawaii, this is a good place to try something that you have never had before. read more

On my family road trip to Waipi'o Valley, we had to stop by this fruit shack because of how colorful it stood on the side of the road. There were hammocks, swings, picnic tables and just a really well manicured area to rest and catch your breath with some fresh coconut and homegrown fruits. Alex was manning the stand and he was super sweet and kindly prepared the coconut after drinking and even brought out some harvested lychees to try. The decor, colors, and location was all so friendly and vibrant. I will absolutely miss this fruit shack and hope to come back soon one day. read more
