An absolutely perfect 2-week experience! My partner and I stayed in the Bamboo Temple, which is part of the Maui Eco-Retreat. We disconnected from our devices and reconnected with nature and our souls.
We loved the weekday yoga classes and Thursday night workshops. The staff was very professional and taught much us more than we expected! Thanks for your close attention and kindness Raphael and Paulina!
We hiked to the ocean and waterfalls adjacent to the verdant and well tended property, so very beautiful and secluded.
We enjoyed listening to the amazing soulful music created by the owners. Some of their CDs are in the Temple’s drawers (Tip: Download it before you visit to get all the tracks) This has become my favorite music.
We cooked all our meals. The best grocery on the island is a 20 minute drive and the Temple’s kitchen is fully equipped.
We read books and watched the stars every night (meteor shower last night!) and saw the sun rising every morning over the ocean. The Bamboo Temple has large windows where you experience this from the bed and meditation cushions. The north shore landscape is overflowing with moisture and rainforest life! It really invigorated us - the life force is here.
The place and the people truly inspired us and will resonate through our lives into the future. Thank you Raphael, Kutira, Paulina, and the rest of the staff for such a special experience.
