Fun, informative coconut farm tour and tasting - "Coconut Courtney," our guide, was fun and funny and engaging in her regaling of coconut fact and lore. She also painstakingly demonstrated to us how to shuck, pierce, and open young, medium, and mature coconuts. The water in young coconuts is ok, but could stand to be chilled in my humble opinion. Young coconut meat is slimy and gross but can supposedly be used in place of noodles? medium age meat is still tasteless for the most part, and has a soft texture. Mature meat is where it's at for me, lol! Seriously, that is when it is crunchy and the most tasty - what one typically finds in grocery stores. The gift shop and drink stand are both great, and filled with coconut yumminess, and the entire staff is friendly and amazing! I highly recommend this tour.

Coconut Farm Fun - Fun and informative tour. Courtney was great - she was very knowledgeable and welcomed all of our questions. We got to taste water and coconut meat from several different stages of development. The farm also has a great little cafe and store. Highly recommend!

Worth the time and money - Very informative. We learned more history than expected. We've already started looking for a local source to get coconuts so we can make our own coco milk and source our own coco water without additives. The view at the farm is amazing as well.

Learning about coconuts - We enjoyed the tour very much and we learned a lot about how coconuts develop. Getting to see and taste the three stages was very cool. Courtney was very knowledgeable, friendly, and very patient with our fellow visitors who had six-year-old triplet boys. If the price point was $50 each this would have been a 5-star review. $75 is too much for what you get.

FEMALE TOUR GUIDE SHOULD HAVE WORN APPROPRIATE CLOTHING - The grounds are lovely. The tour is very informative and enjoyable. But it is very unprofessional for one of your female tour guides to wear a half t-shirt and go braless. Ridiculous. I was there with my family and that made it feel very family UNFRIENDLY.
