Lumeria Maui, Educational Retreat Center

The property is getting old

Lumeria Maui is our most favorite Hale to stay when we visit Maui. Their upcountry location is perfect for a central location to explore all of Maui. This nature inspired meditative retreat is at the steps of so many things to do, and the entire staff will bode with tremendous suggestion. Candice, Brandi and Char are the most friendly and professional house staff while Preston, Shane, and Kyle provide comfort breakfasts every morning of your stay. You will be very well cared. Please avail yourself to an Energy session with Brooke Howsley on Friday mornings and find a Sarah Rothman Hatha class during your stay for sure. Enjoy!

The garden of Eden!

Rooms are very basic and need a deep cleaning. We had a lizard and a dead roach in the middle of the room. Furniture,lamps, door and windows were pretty dusty. Amenities not on a 5 stars level. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the outside areas, very relaxing and quiet. We did not have the time to use the pool or join any calssss.

Amazing stay. The classes were wonderful, the hammocks in the whispering pines were lovely and the pool was amazing. The breakfast had fresh dragonfruit and pineapple, which was out of this world and the other options were delicious.

From the moment we checked in at Lumeria Hotel, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism that made our stay truly special. The staff here are not just employees; they are the heart and soul of this establishment, going above and beyond to ensure every guest feels valued and pampered. The front desk team was incredibly helpful, providing us with great tips on local attractions and dining options. Their knowledge of the area and willingness to assist with every request was impressive.

This was my third time to Lumeria. Personally, I really like place and will return. It is very low-key and low touch. During the day, it can be very difficult to find anyone to help you. So if you are looking for concierge level service and poshness, this is not the place for you. The rooms are tastefully furnished but fairly austerer (in keeping with the historical nature of the property) Breakfast was fine. Not gourmet. Dinner was a nice experience, but pretty overpriced given offering. There was no lunch option. Are there places for improvement? Absolutely. But on balance, and given the alternative big big box hotels on the island, I would definitely opt for this place if you’re looking just to relax in a place reminiscent of all Hawaii that is not on the beach.

We have travelled a lot and this is one of the nicest properties we have visited. The decor and comfort of the rooms along with the setting is perfect.
