What makes it 76% Couple-Friendly: Couples may stroll gardens, attach a pineapple love-lock, and share treats, but constant families and tour buses reduce romance, so the spot feels fun and photogenic rather than deeply intimate.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for couple trip: This timeframe lets couples enjoy the maze, garden tour, and Dole Whip without rushing.
Pineapple Garden Maze & Love Lock:
Wander the Guinness-certified maze and reach the Love Lock arch at its center.
Tip: Buy a custom lock at the booth, write your initials, and secure it at the arch as a keepsake.
Plantation Garden Tour:
Stroll eight themed mini-gardens showcasing coffee, cacao, lei flowers, and exotic fruits.
Tip: Download the free Dole app for narrated folklore and plant facts as you walk.
Dole Whip Soft Serve:
Try world-famous pineapple soft serve made without added water, using fresh Dole pineapples.
Tip: Order at the Plantation Grille and enjoy it on a shaded bench near the koi pond.

Definitely a must see when you're in Hawaii, very busy on a Saturday when we went and lots of parking free of charge. You have to get the Dole pineapple whip ice cream with fresh pineapples it is amazing. Beautiful gift store and lots of little shops outside as well

Honestly, I hate pineapples but we had a blast here. The tours are super cheap and easy to get through everything in about 3 hours. The snacks weren’t super expensive but were super tasty. Everything was super fresh and delicious. The train ride was about 20 minutes and very informative. The maze was cute but really easy to get through. The garden and lake was beautiful. Honestly it’s a great litt...

The parking was crazy. Took about 25 min to find an open spot. Once parked, I enjoyed the experience. Took our three granddaughters, and they enjoyed the day. Train ride was a highlight for them. It was hard to hear the intercom portion of the tour over the tracks noise. If you have never been, you should come by. The history of how the company was started, how pineapple was introduced into Hawaii...
