The Maui Eco Retreat is located in the beautiful jungles near Haiku and is truly a hidden gem. We loved how private and zen the retreat was. There's a great energy about the place and Kutira & Raphael's peaceful intention in its conception are clearly evident in all that makes up the retreat. From numerous gorgeous statues scattered around the property to various mediation temples and a donation based yoga class the place is the definition of bliss and a nice break from the typical beach hotel. In fact, Kutira & Raphael even greeted us personally when we checked in which was a very nice touch. We stayed at the Eco Thai Hail (bamboo house) and it was like having our own home in the middle of the jungle with a view of the ocean! There's nice beaches pretty close by and Haiku and Paia are cool towns to get supplies and eat out. Hana isn't that far either and the retreat serves as a good launch point for that journey. Re: wifi - it's not in the house but in another building very close by and cell phone reception is super spotty or non existent. We would love to come back next time in Maui!
