Please stop playing pop music at 7am, especially on Sunday mornings when your neighbors are trying to have a few prayerful moments or simply trying to rest.
For a class B zone such as the one where this business resides, the Hawaii State Department of Health sets the maximum permissible noise levels for 60 decibels during the daytime hours of 7am to 10pm.
A quick Google search will tell you that 60 decibels of noise is “equivalent to the sound level of normal, conversational speech, a quiet office, or a humming refrigerator.”
So, if I can hear your music in the middle of my living room 50 ft away from your speaker, then you are playing it too loud.
The Honolulu Police Department agrees, and they have instructed us to continue to call them whenever your business is in violation of this ordinance.
We don’t like calling the police. Please keep your music down. It’s basic neighborhood courtesy and respect. It’s also the law.
I will happily delete this review when your business CONSISTENTLY complies with the law.
An apology to my wife and I for how you and your staff have treated us over the past 9 months would be welcome also, though I won’t hold my breath.
… … … Update:
Is Gabby Pahinui Hawaiian for John Mayer? Because that’s what woke us up last Sunday at 7am. Other days it’s Jack Johnson, Luke Bryant, or Gaga. I hear more Hawaiian music when I go to the laundromat then I do coming from Holoholo. Maybe your business is not being run the way you think it is.
The type of music is not the point though.
The point is that Holoholo’s music violates the County noise ordinance for a class B zone and negatively impacts its neighbors.
It has nothing to do with rights or entitlement. It has to do with respect for the law and respect for local community members.
We are simply asking that Holoholo abide by the law, just as we do.
Again, we do not like calling the police, but every time that we’ve kindly asked you or your staff to simply turn the music down, the music is then turned UP.
This retaliation is the opposite of aloha, and it’s the reason why we now call the police, because we are tired of being disrespected.
That all being said, there are many many instances (like yesterday morning 3/7) where your music is not loud and not disruptive to us at all. That’s wonderful. That’s great. Your patrons are happy, and we are happy. If it was like that all the time, you’d never hear from us again.

The coffee smells SO good! Had to stop when we passed. They have so many different flavors and options. We ordered the seasonal special ice espresso island breeze and hot cappuccino. Love both of them.

I stumbled upon Holoholo in Kailua not knowing quite what to expect—but I was genuinely impressed. The service was warm and welcoming, and the quality of the drinks exceeded my expectations. I ordered the macadamia nut latte with macadamia nut cold foam, and it was absolutely delicious. Rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced—highly recommend!
The shop itself is a hidden gem, tucked away with a charming little outdoor seating area under a beautiful plumeria tree. It’s the kind of spot that makes you want to linger a little longer. I’ll definitely be back!

We’ve started every morning of our trip at Holoholo! The absolute BEST coffee and friendliest service at all 3 stands. I love their iced lattes, my husband loves their POG red bull infusion, and my kids love their strawberry guava lemonades. Everything has been delicious and they even pass out the cutest stickers for the kids. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really want to like this place, but a cute storefront is about all it’s got going for it.
There’s no parking. And no, it’s NOT a drive thru, as described on Maps. The closest parking is actually for another business and so you have to find something on the street.
The wait for drinks is long and you’re waiting on the sidewalk, dodging pedestrians and cyclisyts and trash piles.
The music is too loud and oddly not Hawaiian. Even Starbucks and HNL have more culturally curated playlists. I about had to yell at the poor barista so she could hear my order over the blaring Bob Marley.
The drinks are okay but not worth the high price, unless they’re using 100% Kona coffee. Even then, it’s high.

Last second decision to try this coffee shop and there was a semi long line but we are so happy we waited. It went quick and the coffee was the best we had all vacation across 3 different islands. Such a cute drive thru!

You can drive-through or walk up here if you walk up while there are cars in line at the drive-through they do get priority to order ahead of you. They have italian sodas, juices, coffee, and teas. They have a few unique syrups & foams.

Love this drive-thru !
You will get a few minutes before someone comes and takes your order.
So many options available and you can make so many combinations of drinks.
The cold brew specials (King &Queen) are so unique, I can’t stop thinking about them
