Its more than a vacation; its a beautiful adventure, inside and out!

Tentative Retreat Schedule:
We believe in free time and time for yourself, whatever you choose to do with it, so you will notice that there are blocks of unplanned time in your schedule. You may wish to use this time to pursue your own adventures locally or around the island, to partake of the many daily activities available at Lumeria Maui, get a massage, or to mellow out in a hammock or at the beach. Know that Lumeria Maui's helpful staff is well-versed in island-time and "in the know" locally, so if you are seeking something in particular for that free time, just ask!
