A Private Maui Estate for Corporate Retreats & Company Offsites

Skip the hotel conference room. Bring your team to a private, gated estate one block from the beach in Kihei, Maui — where your company is the only guest on the property. Makoa Resorts sleeps up to 80 people across our villas, penthouses, and plantation house, with indoor and open-air gathering spaces, pools, and lawns that turn an offsite into the week your team talks about for years.

Why a Private Estate Beats a Resort for Your Offsite

At a hotel, your team is scattered across floors, sharing the pool with strangers, and renting a windowless ballroom by the hour. With a full buyout at Makoa, the entire property is yours:

Total privacy for candid conversations. Strategy sessions, all-hands, and hard discussions happen without anyone at the next table.
Everyone under one roof. The spontaneous 10 p.m. conversations between people who never talk at the office are where offsites earn their budget.
One property, one invoice. No juggling room blocks, meeting-space fees, and per-hour ballroom minimums.
Built-in downtime. Pools, gardens, and a five-minute walk to Charley Young Beach — no shuttle required.

The Space: Meeting Studio, Oceanview Pavilion & Breakout Villas

Our Kihei estate is a compound of villas, a plantation house, garden hideaway, and two penthouses — 21 bedrooms sleeping up to 50 guests, with nearby Makoa properties bringing total capacity to 80.

Indoor studio seating up to 30 for all-hands sessions, workshops, and presentations — AV equipment available through rentals.
Outdoor pavilion fitting 40–50 people, with power and Wi-Fi coverage — perfect for full-team sessions, group dinners, and evening programs.
Breakout villas — each villa’s living room is a natural breakout room for smaller working groups.
Fast Wi-Fi everywhere — 200–500 Mbps download speeds across the units, so hybrid sessions and video calls actually work.
Full kitchens throughout, plus private-chef and catering options through our concierge.

A Sample 3-Day Retreat at Makoa

Arrive. Align. Build the Bond.

Day 1 — Arrive & align. Airport pickups roll in through the afternoon (Kahului Airport is about 35 minutes away). Sunset welcome dinner at the pavilion, catered by a local chef.

Day 2 — Work the plan. Morning all-hands in the studio; afternoon breakouts by villa; optional sunrise yoga or a group snorkel before dinner.

Day 3 — Build the bond. Half-day strategy wrap-up, then a group outing — sailing off South Maui, a Haleakala sunset, or an afternoon at the beach 300 yards from your door. Our concierge can arrange chefs, catering, yoga instructors, photographers, lei greetings, AV rentals, and group activities.

When to Come

Maui’s vacation high seasons are mid-December–March and June–August. Corporate groups find the widest availability in the shoulder months — April–May and September–early December — which conveniently line up with most companies’ planning calendars. Full-property buyouts are in demand: we recommend reaching out 8–12 months ahead for first choice of dates.
