Mauka Meadows Coffee Farm
75-5476 Mamalahoa Hwy, Kailua-Kona, HI
Crema's Take
“Nestled on a lush Kona farm, this coffee destination invites you to wander through vibrant botanical gardens and working orchards before reaching the café, where you can sample freshly roasted beans and seasonal fruits plucked straight from the property. The $5 entry fee unlocks not just excellent espresso and pour-overs, but a full sensory experience—the kind of slow, intentional visit where the journey through the landscape feels just as important as the coffee in your cup. It's the rare specialty coffee spot that doubles as a living garden, making it perfect for families or anyone seeking that rare combination of great coffee and genuine aloha hospitality.”

Highly recommend stopping by! This place was recommended to us by an uber driver. You get to take a scenic downhill walk and pick fruits as you go. You can pick up a map with the locations of fruit trees - it was very fun looking for the fruits that were in season, it was like a scavenger hunt! There weren’t many fruits in season when we went, so we picked two different types of citrus. At the bottom of the hill, they will cut the fruit you picked to enjoy with some coffee samples by the pool (not a swimming pool). I liked the extra fancy coffee they had, I would have bought some beans if I had space in my suitcase. The staff were also very nice.
Beautiful property with a botanical garden. The coffee was delicious. Plus they will serve you a sample of any fresh fruit they have from their garden.
Amazing farm to walk through and explore. They have designated parking. Here you can find different kind of fruits that grow on the island. You won’t find all fruits as some of them are only seasonal. We had the chance to pick Mac nuts and open them with the tool that is provided. You can also pick up any fruit that is on the ground. The staff was so nice that they even cut the oranges for us that we’ve found. We have bought coffee from there as you can also sample different roasts. Thank you 🫶🏼
$5 per person to enter. Worth every penny. You walk down through gorgeous gardens and orchards, and finally end up at the gift shop which has free coffee samples and beans available for purchase. There’s a free shuttle to the parking lot at the end as well. You can pick ripe fruit from the fruit trees and the staff will clean and cut them for you to enjoy. We picked a couple of star fruits and oranges - they were delightful.
Such a beautiful place! We went here because the first place we went to didn’t open until noon (first booked tours of the day). Found this looking for another tour in the vicinity. This place does not do tours - self guided tours only but we prefer that. The Japanese couple who manage the property are lovely! So kind and friendly. Highly recommend!
