Hula Scoops is a must try while in Kā'anapali ! We got the watermelon / lychee shaved ice with coconut cream drizzled on top and it was so refreshing and delicious. We also tried their pineapple and vanilla twisted dole whip and that was also very tasty ! A perfect treat for a warm Maui day ! read more

HulaScoops - Watermelon / lychee shaved ice with coconut cream drizzle & the pineapple / vanilla twisted dole whip. - Gelato Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

Honestly, this place was incredible. When my family and I stopped by the other day? the only person working was the owner. Let me tell you, she was a boss! Now, everything did take a bit longer to come out, but I honestly didn't mind. Personally, I got gelato, which was very good. My mother and father both got shaved ice and said it was divine! read more

It's expensive but the quality and assembly of the shaved ice was excellent. Not overly sweet, nice fruit topping, add gelato if you want. It's pretty expensive, with tax and tip, $10 but probably worth it for the location. Service was good, no extra smiles or alohas but the preparation of the shaved ice was excellent and that is what matters most. There's covered tables right behind the shopfront with a view of the ocean. This place is way better than the Vintage Hawaii shaved ice at Whalers village which was close to the same price. read more

HulaScoops - Shaved ice. - Gelato Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

This cute ice cream shop is along the Kaanapali beach walk, outside of Marriott's Maui Ocean Club. The gelato was amazing and the cherry shaved ice was refreshing. The shaved iced wasn't too sweet even with the syrup and the coco cream on top. The ice cream staff was patient with our little ones as they ordered by themselves. Completely professional and helpful the whole time regardless of age. read more

Aloha, braddah -- Captain 619 checkin' in from the Marriott Maui Ocean Club beach walk. Here's the lowdown so you don't get loko: Directions first: roll up to the Marriott Maui Ocean Club and park valet (usually a courtesy). Once you grab your keys, head to the right from the driveway and weave down toward the maze of pools and little bridges. Keep goin' along the beach walk -- you'll smell sweet cream and see the HulaScoops wahine scoopin' up ono cones right next to the beach. Look out for the hula girl statue. Now the review: Mama D at HulaScoops Marriott Maui Ocean Club is straight up legendary -- made in Maui with pure aloha. I snagged the Kokolada -- pineapple party in your mouth, a straight tsunami of pineapple flavor that hits hard and stays. My little lady got gelato imported from Italy (fancy kine), and my wahine went for cookies & cream mocha sorbetto -- creamy, rich, and totally shaka-worthy. Mama D super sweet like the flavors she serves. If you're cruisin' Maui, this stop is a must-do. Big aloha and mahalo -- go get some ono scoops! read more

Great fruit syrups, yummy gelato, and dole whip. They had something for everyone in the family, we stopped two days in a row...so far! Highly recommend this spot. read more

Thanks Mama D! It was so nice meeting you. This was my first time trying shave ice (criminal, I know!), and it was delicious. Smooth and refreshing with natural flavors. I chose pineapple and guava with the coconut flavored condensed milk drizzle and it tasted every bit tropical. It was the perfect flavor without having a syrupy taste. Looking forward to trying more flavors. read more

HulaScoops - Mama D handing me my first shave ice! - Gelato Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

We stumbled upon Hula Scoops while on our way to another hotel. It's a little gem located at Marriott's Maui Ocean Club. It was closed when we first passed by, but opened up later that day. It's a small spot, but has a good amount of options--the case was lined with about a dozen flavors of creamy gelato and refreshing sorbetto, plus the classic Dole Whip, and shave ice. The gelato was a little pricey and the Dole Whip seemed to be the better deal. My son opted for the raspberry sorbetto (a bright, tart choice that felt perfect for the day), while my mom happily enjoyed a small cup of pineapple Dole Whip. My husband and I couldn't resist the Dole Whip swirl--a large cup mixing vanilla and Dole Whip soft serve. We probably could have shared the small cup of Dole Whip as the large was just a bit too large for us and we couldn't finish it all. Haha. Hula Scoops was exactly the reprieve we needed from the Maui sun after walking down the beachwalk. Cool, sweet, with just the right amount of tartness and conveniently located just steps from the pool. With tables and shaded seating right outside and the ocean views and the sound of waves in the background, Hula Scoops the perfect spot to wind down and enjoy a sweet pause from the day. After our snack break, we jumped right back into vacation mode at the pool. Check it out if you're nearby! read more

Adorable gelato/ice shop right on the beach. They have a whole cooler of gelato as well as pineapple soft serve aka dole whip!!!! They also have Hawaiian shaved ice bowls that are HUGE!!! I'm obsessed with pineapple dole whip and having it in a waffle cone was *chefs kiss*. The women working the shop were nice and patient and quick. It is expensive but it's also Maui so everything's expensive. But on a warm day definitely worth it! read more

Good shave ice with homemade syrups that taste natural. They also have dole whip as well as gelato. The ice texture isn't as fluffy and well packed as Ululani's but it is an ok-ish substitute. The ice melts faster than ululanis due to this. There is outdoor seating with shade and bathrooms adjacent. The view from the seating is pretty fantastic as it is right on the beach. This location accepts card or tap pay only (no cash). This little stand is located on the beach in kanapali inside a hotel. Parking is pretty terrible as you need to park at a public lot by the Hyatt next door, then walk through the marriot, through the pool area, to finally reach it. If you are staying in kanapali in the hotels/condos, then it may be a convenient walk for you down the sidewalk by the beach. read more

Great spot for shaved ice, gelato, and Dole Whip! Perfect location right in front of the beach with amazing views and plenty of seating. The Kokolada was delicious just the right amount of sweetness, with a scoop of coconut gelato and Dole Whip. The only downside was the wait; service can be a little slow when it's busy. But overall, it was a great experience and I'll be back! read more

Cute place with creamy delicious gelato, dole whip and shaved ice!!! The young ladies here were STELLAR! So so kind and made my first visit here incredible. I'm a fan...ok I'm obsessed with Disney Dole Whip...and their Dole Whip was 100% on the money!! The cookie dough ice cream my partner got was so creamy and flavorful! The shaved ice was so fresh and not artifical tasting! I swear it had real pureed watermelon in it! All around fabulous experience! read more

HulaScoops - Watermelon Shaved Ice - Gelato Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

This is literally the best shave ice I've ever had. The ice is super fine and soft. No icy chunks. Lots of flavor choices. The condensed milk drizzle on top is a nice touch. Right on the beach on the Marriot Hotel grounds read more

We walked here from our hotel and it's a cute little shack off the boardwalk. The employees were very friendly and helpful. I ordered a shaved ice with 2 flavors- hibiscus and guava. I also got the passion fruit (lilikoi) gelato to go on it. The presentation and syrup flavors are amazing. The gelato was delicious as well. The only downside is the ice wasn't as soft as other places we tried. It got hard and compact. My sister in law tried their pineapple whip with lime shaved ice. It was good and the lime was like eating a margarita. I really like the unique flavors but wish the ice was better/softer. read more

We had a fabulous one week stay at the Marriott Ocean Club on Ka'anapali Beach in Maui. HulaScoops is located at the resort by the beachwalk right next to Starbucks. They serve Gelato, Shave Ice, and Dole Whip. Plenty of tables by the beachwalk to sit and enjoy your treats from HulaScoops. Let me start by saying the Customer Service was NOT friendly at all. Service with a smile goes a long way folks. For goodness sake, you are working in Paradise. The young lady who was working that afternoon must of been having a bad day. Don't take it out on your customers, though. Anyways. we did not let that deter us from purchasing something from them. The Dole Whip tasted fine. Like everywhere else we've tried it. So nothing special about it. Just on the pricier side. Also tried a scoop of Gelato. Specifically, we tried the Kona Mud Pie. It looked yummy & fresh, and the container was still completely full. The scoop was more the size of a mini scoop for most shops. Disappointing due to how pricey the scoops are. She made sure not to overfill the cup. Some gelato was rising above the lip of the cup. So she removed the excess gelato as to not give us too much. Good for the business. Surprisingly, the Kona Mud Pie did not taste very good. Or maybe it was the bad taste the customer service left us with? A very disappointing 2 star experience that we had on this island paradise. Won't let this stop us from visiting Maui in the future. Will just skip HulaScoops. read more

The owner is very friendly and chatted us up. She explained that she makes all flavors from scratch and does not use any artificial flavors or ingredients. I got a shaved ice with Dole Whip inside, it was heavenly. read more

This shaved ice is delicious!!! We tried some of the gelato but landed on the shaved ice, mango and peach flavored! I want to go back and have another next time with coconut gelato at the bottom. A great spot, so convenient right on the beach! And a lot of ice for $10! Would highly recommend if you're on the beach, stopping there and getting something to share! read more

Be sure to let them know if you have any fruit allergies when you order. I'm deathly allergic to mangoes and the girls behind the counter were so accommodating and sweet and gave me strawberries instead. Flavorful natural syrups. We loved our shaved ice orders. read more

HulaScoops - Gelato Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

The shave ice was a good texture. The syrups tasted good We tried key lime, Marionberry, hibiscus, and guava the. Put coconut condensed milk on it. The syrups were good but it didn't penetrate all of the ice. There weren't as many traditional flavors but the ones we had were tasty. This place was slightly hard to find using the direction but it is on the beachwalk. read more

We stayed at the Marriott for a week and came to this spot almost everyday. Every flavor of gelato was amazing. The service was good most days but there was an older woman who was very rude and cold. Overall, I would definitely come again and hope they improve on their customer service. read more

The sorbet flavors are incredible and the service is even better. Will definitely be returning. Thank you!

By far the worst service I have ever had at a food establishment. Lady working the register has the audacity to tell me that they are out of shaved ice while I can clearly see Ice left in the machine even though they are preparing shaved ice for the people in front of me. After they tell me that they are "out of shaved ice" I get pushed to the side by the lady as she served someone else and during the transaction the other lady working in the back opens the shaved ice machine and throws out the ice, and to show scale she has to carry it with two hands because it's too big to carry with one. So I speak over the people infront of me and say "that's plenty of ice to make a snow cone and she tells me "we're closed" even though I had 5 minutes till it states they were closed. Not worth your time or your money for extremely small portions, horrible service, and a horrible ambiance. read more

Best Shaved Ice Ever--Wish It Was Closer to Home! If you're in Maui near Lahaina, do yourself a favor and get this shaved ice! Hands down, the best I've ever had--so soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. I loved it so much that I went back on my last day, only to be heartbroken that they didn't open early enough for me to get one more before leaving! My personal recommendation: get the ice cream at the bottom and drizzle condensed coconut milk on top of any flavor--it takes it to the next level! I seriously can't wait to go back just for this. If only they had a location near home! read more

Good shave ice! A bit expensive but decent as they are really close to our hotel. They also have some great flavors of gelato. The employees are very nice and seem genuinely happy to work there. read more

We have had shave ice in Hawaii about 100 times over the last ten years or so. And, this is by far the best shave ice we have ever had. It tastes like it is made from pure juice and minimal sugar. But, in a really good way. I had two bowls a day and never felt sugared out. Give it a try. I recommend the kokolada. It was the best of the six flavors we tried (although all flavors were great). read more

Place is ahhhmazing. Delicious, home made, fresh, and owner is super friendly. Went twice during our vacation in April 2025. It's right on the walkway between resorts and next to a Starbucks. There is seating all around so you can enjoy your treats with a gorgeous view. read more

Good quality, delicious shaved ice and gelato. Service is excellent & staff is friendly each time we visit. Perfect place to grab shaved ice/gelato and enjoy the sunset. They sell dole whip too but have not tried it. We personally love mango shaved ice topped with condensed milk and macadamia nut ice cream in the middle. The flavors are perfect! Parking is not the best but if you're staying in one of the Kaanapali hotels or condos then it's a nice walk along the beach to Marriott. read more

Delicious Gelato. Definitely recommend the gelato and the shaved ice with the milk cream on top it was not your ordinary shaved ice!

The flavors are super good and rich, they have a nice variety of fruity and sweet flavors. The cashier seemed a little impatient, but I'm assuming that's because of the line behind us. This location was inside of the Marriott and right on the beach. read more

I rarely give bad reviews, and while the servers were friendly, the gelato was tasteless. I ordered pistachio, my wife coconut and mocha. Mine had not the slightest hint of pistachio flavor and my wife's coconut tagged like vanilla. The coffee/chocolate had some coffee taste, but you'd never know there was any chocolate involved. Very disappointing. read more

Sooooo good and fun!!!! Right by the beach in Kaanapali so you can float and enjoy your yummy HulaScoops! Love!
