We have loved Akamai in Kihei for years now. They have great options for Hawaiian coffee , tea and other liquid treats.
Most of all the staff is very welcoming and every one of them greats you with smiles.
Akamai had become a daily necessity for us to enjoy some time each day with joy, relaxation and great company.

Several visitors praise the smoothness and flavor balance of drinks such as the Hawaiian Honeybee (with coconut, vanilla, and honey) and the surfer girl latte (with caramel and macadamia nut). Seasonal options are also available, like the bougie bee with lavender and the road to Lahaina with white chocolate, mac nut, and toffee nut, which are generally enjoyed, though some customers find certain flavors too strong or busy.
Despite limited food options, many find the treats like coconut macaroon yummy, and some visitors have bought coffee beans to take home. The atmosphere emphasizes personal human connections, with no wifi available, making it a warm, friendly space. Staff are happy to recommend drinks, and the overall experience is highly positive, with many customers planning to return to try other seasonal drinks.
