Distinctive Hawaiian Setting

Holistic Healing Approach
At Maui Recovery, we believe in addressing the entirety of the individual—not just the addiction. Our holistic programs seamlessly integrate physical, emotional, and spiritual healing modalities, ensuring a comprehensive and personalized recovery experience tailored to your unique needs.
Culturally Enriching Activities

Exciting Adventures Await You in the Hawaiian Outdoors
Snorkel in Turtle Town
The calm, crystalline waters of Turtle Town are the perfect place to observe the natural habitat of the majestic and endangered Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles. These gentle giants, which can grow up to four feet and weigh up to 400 pounds, glide gracefully among the underwater lava formations and rich marine life.
Discover the Molokini Crater
Maui’s Molokini, a crescent-shaped, submerged volcanic crater, is filled with vibrant marine life and colorful tropical fish. The unique crater provides a natural shield from strong currents and waves and is an ideal spot for both beginner snorkelers to discover the underwater wonders of Molokini.
Explore Turtle Reef
Dive into one of Maui’s premier snorkeling destinations with a vibrant underwater sanctuary of (completely harmless!) manta rays and black-tip nurse sharks. Beyond the captivating marine life, Turtle Reef boasts impressive coral formations, with some larger coral heads being hundreds of years old.
Hike to Twin Falls
Situated along the iconic Road to Hana, Twin Falls is a must-visit attraction and a perfect example of the island’s diverse beauty. A moderate hike into the lush forest culminates with the majestic Twin Waterfalls. Take a dip and relax in the deep pools, surrounded by vibrant foliage and unique natural wonders, all nurtured by the frequent rains in the Ho’olawa Valley.
Journey Through Iao Valley
Located along the central plains of Maui is the unmistakable pinnacle of the ‘Iao Needle’, 1,200 feet above the valley floor—a striking green-hued remnant from West Maui’s last eruption over 320,000 years ago. A short hike is richly rewarded with panoramic views of expansive valleys, dramatic ridges, and the shimmering coastline. The breathtaking beauty of this National Natural Landmark led Mark Twain to affectionately call it the “Yosemite of the Pacific.”
Experience Outrigger Canoeing
Quintessential symbols of Hawaii, traditional outrigger canoes have been part of Hawaiian culture since 200 AD. Today, they serve diverse purposes, from whale watching to racing competitions. If you’re ready to immerse yourself in marine life, history, and culture, Maui Recovery offers an authentic outrigger canoeing experience, combining a thrilling ocean adventure with fascinating information about endemic marine life and Hawaiian culture.
Bike in Makawao Forest
The serene Makawao Forest, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Maui reminiscent of the enchanting landscapes described by John Muir. The misty, bird-song-filled trails, 3,000 feet above sea level, make it a haven for biking adventures. Meandering alongside a gorge and winding its way through a verdant forest of vibrant flora, the primary path of the Kahakapao Loop Trail reveals an opportunity to experience the restorative power of nature.
