Many people who stay here say that our web site does not do justice in showing the real peace and magic of this place. So, we made a short video that shows not only the beauty of the land, but also the spirit and essence of the aina.

Welcome to Living Elegantly Green!

This is an extraordinary place full of genuine Hawaiian mana (blessings). It can be felt the moment you set foot on our lush land. Whether you are seeking sanctuary, looking to write the next chapter of your life, or are simply on vacation, come explore sustainable living on Maui’s premier ecotourism retreat center. We use solar power, rain catchment, and have a natural alkaline water well. Secluded and oceanfront, yet close to town, we specialize in permaculture gardens and bamboo farming. Enjoy our lagoons and temples, surf our high-speed wireless Internet, or hike our amazing waterfall trails and swim the natural pools in this unique romantic setting. We are a Five Star certified green retreat and voted “The Greenest Spot on Maui.”

We offer luxurious and unique accommodations in our private cottages and our communal Opua House. All are surrounded by dense greenery, ocean views, ancient imported artwork, and loving intention. Please visit our accommodations page for more information.

Kahua O’Malio is known for it’s inspiring atmosphere and is available for small group retreats, honeymoon getaways, and relaxing vacations.

Mahalo, and please enjoy our Sacred Surroundings photo gallery and videos.

Aloha!
