We have never been to such an incredible destination and don't think we will be able to find a place that comes close ever again. We did make the mistake of planning a lot of activities outside the retreat and we regret not getting more time there to just relax and restore. We spent a couple of days in Kihei before coming to the Eco Retreat and we felt immediate peace and relaxation upon arrival. There is no way to accurately put into words the feeling of having access to a private waterfall and exploring the surrounding area only hearing the rush of the water and the breeze. The shower is completely isolated (no one uses the stairs mentioned) and the whole time we were there we felt like we were on our own little island. Watching the sunrise over the ocean from our bed every morning was just magical.
Please keep in mind this is a beautiful, isolated stay in nature so make sure you are comfortable with a couple critters. There were adorable geckos throughout the bamboo temple who really don't bother you but do make noise through the night. The fan acted as white noise and we didn't hear them much after that. There are ants who share the space but if you keep it tidy and don't leave food or snacks out, they really don't get in the way.
We will definitely try to be back one day as this was an unforgettable experience!! Thank you Kutira and all who make this beautiful place a possibility!!
