Enjoy the refreshing trade winds of the North Shore, eliminating the need for air conditioning, and savor pure alkaline water from our volcanic aquifer.

**Your Stay:**
Welcome to the Bamboo Temple, a sanctuary inspired by sacred geometry, echoing the elegance of nature’s design, such as the nautilus shell. This serene hideaway, surrounded by rolling hills where the ocean meets the land, offers breathtaking views of Maui’s North Shore. Whether sipping your morning coffee while watching the sunrise or meditating in peaceful silence, this retreat is ideal for relaxation, creativity, and personal growth.

Inside, the queen-sized bamboo bed invites you to unwind as you gaze at the stars through the prism-shaped skylight. The room is adorned with hand-painted silk thankas and a sacred altar, perfect for contemplation. The outdoor shower with ocean views and the private lanai provide spaces for reconnecting with nature. High-speed internet is available for those needing to work remotely but can also be turned off to enjoy a digital detox.

**Explore Maui:**
Situated in the heart of Maui’s North Shore, Bamboo Temple is ideally located for exploring some of the island’s most iconic attractions. Just a short drive away, you’ll find the legendary *Mama’s Fish House*, renowned for its fresh seafood and unforgettable dining experience. Begin your adventure on the *Road to Hana* with ease, discovering hidden waterfalls and lush landscapes. For an awe-inspiring day trip, visit the summit of *Haleakalā* and witness the sunrise above the clouds—a bucket-list experience for many travelers.

**Experience Our Property:**
Our eco-friendly buildings are adorned with spiritual art and handcrafted masterpieces from Pacific and Asian cultures. Wander through our lush jungle, discover serene ponds and vibrant flower gardens, and enjoy a refreshing dip in our natural waterfall pools. Explore our organic and agroforestry gardens, or take the moderately challenging cliff trail down to the ocean, where you might spot dolphins, turtles, or even whales during the winter months.

Whether you’re here to relax, reconnect with nature, or celebrate a special occasion, the Bamboo Temple at Maui Eco Retreat offers an unforgettable experience. Our exclusive yoga classes and personalized services make it the perfect place for intimate ceremonies or micro-weddings officiated by Kutira, who embodies the spirit of Hawaii.

**About Our Location:**
We are conveniently located 40 minutes from Kahului Airport and just 30 minutes from the charming beach town of Paia, known for its eclectic boutiques, delicious restaurants, and turtle-watching opportunities. As the gateway to the Road to Hana, our retreat is ideally situated for exploring Maui’s natural wonders while providing a peaceful retreat away from the bustle of tourism.

Other things to note
Late Arrival Policy

There is an additional charge of $45 for late arrivals between 6 PM and 10 PM and $65 for arrivals from 10 PM to 11 PM. As a small family-owned business, we must hire an after-hours guest services person to welcome late-night arrivals and guide you to your room or cottage. We prefer check-ins between 3 PM and 6 PM. Thank you for understanding our situation.

Please Note: Our retreat offers a serene and contemplative environment best suited for adults seeking rest, reflection, and a deep connection with nature. We’ve found that guests under 21 often don’t resonate with the quiet pace and atmosphere we offer, so we kindly welcome only those 21 and older.

Starting October 27th, 2025, Airbnb is changing how it collects its service fees. In the past, guests paid this fee directly to Airbnb. Now, Airbnb will charge it to hosts instead. To cover this new policy, our Airbnb rates will appear about 15% higher. Please know this isn’t a price increase from us; Airbnb has shifted its fees from guests to hosts.

Neighborhood highlights

We are located in the Valley of the White Owl, the Pueo and we are blessed by the spirit creature called "Mo'o". These are the legendary protectors of Hawaii's pools, ponds, and streams who can change forms from small Geckos to giant Dragons. We have two old Hawaiian churches and we have a really beautiful guestbook, which shares more about the history of this place and the valley we are located in.
