Kula Sandalwoods Inn & Cafe

As we went on a vacation to Maui, we decided to stop by this clean and welcoming cafe. There was no one there which we were happy about from this Coronavirus time, and we we also got sit outside. The place was very neat as there is a nicely mowed lawn with a gazebo. When we went in, we were nicely greeted. Everywhere was very neat and tidy which we really liked. Even the bathroom was very clean and for people like us who care so much about bathrooms were very impressed. The eggs were delicious with the hash browns which had an amazing flavor and crunchiness was score. The service was one of my stars of this cafe. I highly recommend stopping by this cafe when you go to any trails ahead for a light and delicious meal. This cafe was probably one of the best cafes we went on our Maui trip.

Food was fresh. Place was very clean and quiet. Waiter/cook/owner was attentive to our needs. It is the best (and only) place to get some well-deserved coffee and food after your hikes at the Haleakala national park. Highly recommend.

Excellent French Toast and Coffee ☕️ and lovely views of West Maui 😉

2023 Update…and the cappuccinos are SO good!!

Great hidden gem on the way up to Haleakala! Food was great.

We had the kona blend coffee. I’m typically not a coffee drinker but this one, trust me, is real good!! And my friend and I ordered breakfast sandwich, Brie-stuffing French toast, and a side of Portuguese sausage. My friend said the sandwich was alright, but my French toast was splendid and the sausage was also nicely salted and pan seared with nice crust. I’d definitely visit this place again if I happen to be in the area.

Coming down from Haleakala was a magical experience filled with rainbows of all shapes and sizes. Halfway down the hill, you stumble upon a little bed and breakfast cafe. It's a glimpse into the Hawaiian escape and very cute. Food is generic breakfast but very well made eggs and hash :) make sure you stop by and grab a bite with a beautiful view.

Unique location closer to Haleakala crater than almost any other restaurant. Has a dedicated following of local residents. I don't find the very limited menu very special nor the items better than average. Acceptable. Friendly, quick service by owner. Pretty drive.

Great little breakfast spot. Good food and an UpCountry feel and environment. The view is slightly less appealing than Kula Lodge but the food is better and it's usually quieter and less crowded. Go left when you come down Crater Rd from your morning Haleakala sunrise trip and it will be on your left on within 30 seconds.
Great Eggs Benedict. Ask to substitute the hash browns for fried rice!

The food was okay. The fried rice is very good, but not on the menu. The service was good but the food literally took 40 minutes to come out. Not sure why omelet and fried rice would take so long when there were hardly any other customers. Just be aware if possibly waiting very long for the food.

Perfect spot for breakfast after watching the Haleakala sunrise! Their pancakes and French toast were fluffy and delicious!
