    My guilty pleasure. I honestly love this place. The fresh fruit, the amazing toppings and the frozen yogurt that changes flavor variety every week. The only thing that I am discontent with is, I wish the place was a little bigger. It gets very busy with people and not much of a place to sit and chill. But for a quick go and grab. Best place.

    Great place to take the kids, or just grab some for yourself!

    Can get crowded at peak times.

    My family came in from Oregon and wanted to frozen yogurt. I've been to Yogurt Island before and it was good, so we looked up the hours to make sure they were open and sure enough they were with time to spare. We loaded up with great expectations. What we found was nothing like my experience before. Half the yogurt machines were empty and an employee was emptying another 2 so we had the option of 4 flavors. Most of the fresh fruit toppings were already put up and all of the hot toppings were gone. We had to pick from the dry toppings. This was an hour before the listed closing time. We had 5 in our party and at least 10 people came in after us. All that came in grumbled. I would say if you want a great experience don't go in the evening.

    Wow! If you want toppings, this place has got 'em! They have at least 10+ different cereals (located in the nifty red dispensers toward the back) and lots of fruit toppings. Also, you have to ask for the whipped cream --- very worth it!

    There is nothing too special about their froyo flavors though... None of them were very exotic and most were just plain fruit flavors. They did, however, have pistachio, which is one of my favorites.

    I love that I can stop here after a late dinner since they don't close until 11:30 PM, on Saturday that is. I'm not sure about other days.

    This place is popular w/ teenagers; when I walked in at 10:30 PM, the place had 10 or so guests still. Their dining area is very welcoming. There were flat screen TVs at a few of the tables which definitely made me feel right at home. They had Shark Tale playing when I went.

    This is a cute little froyo shop. I recommend it!

    I came here with my niece and nephew and it was a trip. Good selection of frozen yogurts and toppings. Small place and tends to get crowded, but I guess that speaks well of the place. Price is pretty competitive to other yogurt places. My favorite flavors: pomegranate raspberry and very berry. Ohh parking is not an issue. I will be back for more!

    If you've hit up the other chain top it yourself yougurt shops this won't be that big of a deal, but if you're used to golden spoon or other plain shops this will be diffrent.

    They're flavors were solid- good chocolate and peanut butter. The pineapple is okay, a bit tart and not as fruity as other yogurt shops. They have all the standard toppings from crushed oreos to sprinkles, and a good selection of fresh fruit, though they could do a bit better on the sauces. They also had whole cookies, brownies, and waffles (like thick breakfast waffles in addition to the thinner waffle bowl cones)

    Staff was friendly, decor a kitschy Hawaiian/ island vibe, and the place was PACKED! Ask for a card

    This is the best yogurt shop in the Coachella Valley. The atmosphere is very high class.

    Always a wide variety of yogurt flavors and the largest selection of toppings I've ever seen.

    This is a must-visit yogurt shop.

    WOW, Golden Spoon who? What a lovely surprise. Just when one thinks that frozen yogurt has become so predictable along comes Yogurt Island.
    You have about 15 different base yogurts to chose from and then you just build from there. All kinds of toppings under the sun. I was so happy with the large selection of fresh fruit in particular- Mangos, Blackberries, Blueberries, Pineapple, Oranges, Strawberry's, Kiwi, Fresh Cherries etc, etc. Extra yummy sorbet flavors too!

    Great shop! They had a nice selection of flavors, including Peppermint Stick and a non-dairy Pomegranate Raspberry sorbet that was delicious. They have all the usual toppings - plenty of candy, cereal, nuts, fresh fruit, and mochi. They also had a selection of desserts like brownies, which is pretty unique to yogurt shops. We liked how clean the store was, and the friendly service. And they trust you with getting your own samples - so many self-serve shops treat the sample cups like they are controlled substances. Two spoons up!

    This is a small self-serve frozen yogurt spot.  I go here for their no sugar added and fat free frozen yogurt.  They have it in chocolate or vanilla or swirl.  When you go in you get a foam cup or go over to this little cabinet there and you can get a waffle lined foam cup (these smell very good!)  They have other flavors that I didn't even look at as I am only after the "can't believe it's no sugar added" flavors.  Several variety of nuts and dry toppings, chopped up fresh fruit, and syrups and warm fudge to choose from.  There are only a few tables and a couple of TVs.  I like to get one side of my cup with vanilla and the other side with chocolate then top it with cordial cherries, bannanas, blueberries, and strawberries.  So yummo!  This place is located on Washington & Hwy 111 behind the  Beer Hunter.  Now is the time to go and get a cool treat this summer.  Everyone is very casual with flip flops and shorts.  Note: They charge by weight.  My portion runs about $5.  It's a big cup just remember you don't have to fill it up.  Don't forget to leave room for the fruit!

    tip:  When you walk in you might go over by the register where there is a newspaper/newsletter that usually has a coupon or they have info on specials.   They do have a little card that you can get and get it punched each time.  They don't always mention it so take the initiative.

    Probably the best frozen yogurt joint in the valley. Huge selection of flavors and the biggest selection of toppings. Clean shop with friendly staff. Always busy which can be a bit annoying when trying to check out.

    This place is pretty unique. They have like 16 different flavors at any given time, and allow the customers to create their own dessert. The whole thing is assembled by you and you pay by the weight of the finished product. It kinda reminded me of those do it yourself pizza places that were popular in the mid-nineties. A little off the beaten path but worth the trip.

    It was pretty packed when I came, which means dumb people were scrambling all over, but they had an interesting selection of yogurts to choose from. All your regular toppings, pay by weight kind of deal, blah blah blah. I'd come back.
