Ohana Gardenia Room

The Gardenia Room is located on the lower level of the Ohana House, with a private entrance. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out onto the beautiful lush garden spaces and water features. Guests enjoy a private full bath, mini fridge, hot water kettle, dipping pond and private laundry facilities. The room includes a king-size bed and a twin bed. Ohana Gardenia Room guests enjoy access to all Hale Akua Garden Farm amenities, including our sixty-foot saltwater swimming pool, large hot tub, farm store, and infrared sauna. 

Because we are also a certified organic farm, an interactive, in-person course in regenerative agriculture and closed-loop farming is offered to all visiting students. We also provide classes in yoga, hula, communication training, and Lomi Lomi massage. Our massage team includes three highly trained Lomi Lomi practitioners and one instructor who is certified to teach individuals how to give Lomi Lomi massage to their partner. Learning opportunities are available throughout the property and at the office. In addition, guests can access extended courses in closed-loop farming via QR codes on their phones. These include in-depth modules on black soldier flies, aquaponics, and how aquaponics supports the health of the ocean around Maui by reducing demand for ocean fish—species that are also essential food sources for whales, dolphins, sea turtles, reef fish, and seabirds. Another QR-based course explores high-protein and anti-cancer foods from Oceania, rooted in traditional cultural practices. For those who prefer not to read on their phones, printed copies of all courses are available at the office.
