    Banana latte

    Banana latte was really tasty! So was the açaí bowl. Staff wasn't super welcoming but the food was delicious. Would recommend!

    Açaí bowl substitute pineapple for the bananas

    Cute little place off the road. Good menu and food was fresh and came out fast. Açaí bowl fresh and yum. Sub sandwich was huge! Definitely sharable. Love their bread they use. Super fresh and soft. Service was good and everyone seems to be enjoying the vibe.

    Nothing better than a refreshing açaí bowl after a warm hike along the coast. I love this spot because it has a generous menu and plenty of seating inside. We tried the island vibes açaí bowl that had granola, bananas, strawberries, lilikoi butter, and graham cracker with macadamia crumble. I never had lilikoi butter but it was such a good addition. The fruit was very fresh and the açaí was so refreshing. I asked the staff what their favorite bowl was and I'm so glad they picked this one.

    I write this to you from my local New York City coffee shop, the Samurai Champloo soundtrack spinning in my wired apple headphones, a zyn tucked high and tight, and a black coffee blessing my lips. What more could a guy ask for? I'm fresh back in this manic city off of a trip to Maui. What a special place. Polar opposite vibe of New York, but I love both. I NEED both. Island Vibes Cafe became our local cafe/coffee shop to get the day started, as it was a short walk from the Airbnb. These places are special. They become home and give you a little slice of routine while on vacation. I was essentially living off of the Chocolate Peanut Butter Sunrise smoothie ($11) and the Peanut Butter Banana Bagel ($11.50). It was straight fuel for me, no better way to get the day started. I had no cell service in here, and it brought me back to a simpler time when we all weren't so plugged into the outside world. We would all just enjoy each other's company. On mornings when I came alone, I would find myself just sitting with my thoughts. I've been extremely burnt out recently, but found this time alone I was coming up with some great ideas and my battery was actually being recharged. This time forced me to realize how important being "bored" is. It forces you to be creative and think about things that you put off when you are getting blasted with content, videos, and stimuli 24/7. Being bored is a completely lost art in today's world, and I'm grateful to Island Vibes for putting me in a straight jacket and making me bored. I need to be bored more often. Thank God I didn't realize they had wifi until my last day in here lol. On this last day as I walked up to order, the sweet cashier with the cool necklace said "the usual?" What an honor. I felt like a regular. I responded with a hard "Absolutely," got my bagel and smoothie, and sat there, opting not to connect to the wifi. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

    Iced latte ($6.75)

    Island Vibes Cafe is a local coffee and breakfast shop in the Kapalua area of Maui. They are right by the water and located in a small plaza and an even smaller parking lot. They have a variety of offerings: coffee, smoothies, açaí bowls, breakfast burritos, and sandwiches. They also have juices that are freshly pressed. We ordered the island vibes açaí bowl ($15) which was decent and slightly sweet due to the lilikoi butter. We ordered the Cali style burrito ($15) with bacon; we wished the portion size was bigger but we liked the bacon and the salsa was very good. We also got the iced latte ($6.75) that was standard. The interior was spacious and there were a good amount of tables. There was even extra space for people to park their surfboards while they grabbed a coffee or a bite to eat.

    Awesome little cafe right in Nāpili right behind Napili bay. Literally 100 feet from the public entrance to the beach. I loved this cute shop!. They sell sandwiches, açaí bowls, coffee, snacks and the best guava cheesecake ever!!!! Also during my stay my goal was to find the best açaí bowl and they won hands down best one!!! The breakfast burrito is delicious and the coffee was perfect! Wish I could come here everyday on my way to the beach! Also they sell a bunch of cute stuff from household beachy decor to really cute locally made jewelry. Oh and the music is fun and livel Pro tip: grab some coffee and head over to the beach or grab lunch or an açaí bowl and head back to the beach baby!

    Great Brazilian cheese bread and coffee. Delicious freshly baked! Friendly staff and spacious dining tables. Ambiance is relaxing and clean. Walkable distance from montage hotel or plenty of parking in front of the store.

    Stopped in for some food and drinks for the beach and we were not disappointed! The prices are a little steep but you could tell everything was freshly made. The wait was also a while since they just have one person taking orders but it moved pretty quick! I really enjoyed my matcha and the açaí bowl was delicious as well. We walked so unsure of how parking would be but there was lots of seating inside and I liked the local vendors being showcased as well!

    What an INCREDIBLE find! We are staying walking distance from this cute cafe and are so pleased we found it! It's super clean, with a chic local vibe. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Their menu is simple yet has great variety for all. My two daughters quickly found items they wanted, as did I which is surprising because I am gluten free. We got two acai bowls and a breakfast wrap. All three were delicious! We will definitely be returning for more this trip.

    Day 2 (take-out order).. Mac nut latte w/oat-milk & blue raspberry shaved ice on our lanai (flower I found on my walk back;))
    Minh L.

    All around amazing! Went yesterday and ate in and again today for take out. Delicious coffee (I ordered mac-nut latte w/oat milk) and loving their loaded veggie everything bagel. My son had shaved ice both days (I brought my own cooler and got shaved ice to go today since we were only a few minute walk ;)) They have a really cute island vibes shop. We got a few really cute souvenirs and gift. Aloha and Mahalo!!

    Bagel, burrito, Island Vibes Açaí

    Relaxed cafe with breakfast burritos and acai bowls. Came here for breakfast with my boyfriend and ordered an egg and cheddar bagel, island vibes acai bowl, and Paia style burrito. The burrito was filling and vegetarian friendly. I really liked the macadamia nut crumble and the passionfruit drizzle on the acai bowl, as it's not a common thing to see in the acai bowls I order in LA. It wasn't too sweet too, which was good. There was a small parking lot in the front. Plenty of seating was available.

    This was another yelp find during our trip to Maui and we loved it so much we are planning on going back before we leave the island. Everything was delicious and the atmosphere is great, too. I will be dreaming out my açaí bowl for a long, long time.

    This place does everything great. Do your taste buds, senses (vibe) and tummy a favor, order anything and it is delicious, healthy and flavorful. Special shoutout to the shaved ice, after trying it at a 5 star hotel restaurant, which was just little blocks of ice with some artificial syrup. This is legit, how it should be.

    The coffee was so good and convenient for walking to the beach afterwards! The vibe was also great, we wish would've found it sooner

    Just a short drive from Ka'anapali, in the town of Kapalua…read more Its the expanded version of ABC store that has coffee and hot food. Is this the sister location to ones in Ko'Olina? Got all your goodies, drinks and food. Their Ube malasada was so good. Chewy with lots of flavor. Also got there breakfast specials which will fill you up at good price. Gotta have the rice and eggs with spam! Nice patio just outside, plenty of parking and also clean restrooms.

    Heard about the taro mochis here so decided to come get it out. The whole store is actually an abc…read morestore but it has a bit more food items- like a deli, drinks and smoothie station, bakery etc. nice that they have a lot of food items. So actually the mochi is not really a mochi. It is a pastry that has mochi in the middle. And it's not taro. It's ube. So they have Hawaiian ube donut (sugar covered balls) 2/3.00 or regular Hawaiian donuts. They also have the ube mochi pastry and they have these huge ube breads. Honestly, I didn't like any of them. The big breaded thing was too Bready, the mochi pastry was a little much dairy taste, and the ube Hawaiian donut balls didn't taste like anything except a regular donut that was purple... the dragon fruit smoothie we had which was plant based was too sweet. If you order that, and you don't like it too sweet, I would ask them to make it half as sweet. So, we were all in all a little disappointed as we were hoping to find some good Hawaiian treats but I guess we can try another place.
