The property is located on Maui island in the Kula district on the drier side of Haleakala. In days before western contact the area was heavily forested with native plants and trees and rainfall was abundant. The native Hawaiian grew bananas, taro and sweet potato. After Western contact businessmen mostly from the United States developed huge tracts of land for ranching and farming which cleared the native forests and destroyed the eco system from the mountain to the sea. Many of the Hawaiian people moved away nearer to the towns and immigrant Chinese laborers from the ranches and plantations moved in. The Chinese brought in the Wattle tree to plant for firewood as these trees grew very fast. These are the majority of the trees that you see today. As part of the Chinese immigration, the founder of modern China, Sun Yat Sen lived here for a time and planned his revolution to overthrow the last Chinese Dynasty. There is a park dedicated to him nearby.We have picnic tables a propane grill, a fire pit and a covered gazebo that is shared with 3 cabins This site is located at the 2800 ft altitude and the temperature at night can range from mid 50 to mid 60 degrees F. If you are planning to go to Haleakala, we are about 45 -60 minutes to the summit. We are also on the south side approach to Hana. There is a great restaurant for breakfast and lunch about 10 minutes away in Keokea town called Grandma's Coffee house.

🌺 Off-Grid Ocean Oasis on a Regenerative Maui Farm 🌺 Welcome to our slice of paradise—where the mountains meet the sea, and wild abundance surrounds you.
Tucked away on the lush west side of Maui, our off-grid regenerative orchard is more than a place to sleep—it’s an invitation into real island life. Wake up steps from the ocean in your cozy cabin, nestled among fruit trees and singing birds. Pick your breakfast papaya right off the tree. Watch wild deer wander past as you sip coffee under the mango trees.
🏄♀️ Crave adventure? Grab a kayak, surfboard, or fishing rod and hit the waves.
🥾 Prefer stillness? Hike to sacred petroglyphs or follow the nearby stream—one of the last running freshwater sources on the west side.
🌈 Curious soul? Learn regenerative agriculture from one of Maui’s most experienced land stewards. You’ll see firsthand how we’re rewilding the land and feeding the community.
Back at basecamp, enjoy:
✅ Fast Wi-Fi and communal spaces to connect or chill
✅ BBQ grills and smokers to cook your farm-fresh meals
✅ Night skies full of stars and the sound of the ocean to lull you to sleep

We are a remote, off-grid farm located in one of the most beautiful parts of the island, surrounded by wild, untamed land. Enjoy gorgeous sunrises and sweeping ocean views. We are a small community growing a variety of medicinal plants and herbs, and we also offer yoga and hula-inspired dance sessions to our guests for an additional fee.
This is a true sanctuary for those seeking adventure. The farm sits at the top of a steep, mile-long 4-wheel-drive road. Guests can either pay for parking and a shuttle via quad with our neighbors or drive up the hill themselves in a 4-wheel-drive vehicle. This property is best suited for adventurous souls, and we require a minimum stay of four nights.
We are happy to host respectful, conscientious, and good-vibe guests who appreciate nature, community, and the slower pace of island life.

This place got the job done. We are on a five-day, four-night van camping trip. For our second night around the island, we booked here.
The directions to get there are very easy; follow the GPS and the directions in the message sent earlier by the host. If you arrive before it's too dark, that is best.
We were in spot five and liked the spot. The bathroom was clean, the spot for the van was nice, and the motion-activated light was great for any late-night or early-morning trips to the bathroom.
The shower was so nice, the instructions were straightforward, and a hot shower for the first time in two days felt so good. We saw the sunset below the ocean, and it was spectacular!
Overall, if you want a shower, clean bathrooms, and a smaller crowd, this is the place. The bbq grill is much better than the state camps.

The cabin sat on a peaceful piece of property with a gorgeous view. The cabin was represented well by the description on the website. It was nothing fancy but met our need for a place to stay while visiting Haleakala National Park.

Alika’s land was perfect. The cabin was adorable and comfortable, and we really appreciated the hot shower and the clean flush toilets. The place was quiet, even with multiple other campers on site one of the nights we were there. Alika even put a cot in the cabin for our youngest, and we all had plenty of space. The solar lighting worked perfectly and the place was clearly marked with good location instructions for us to follow. We messaged the host with a question and they got back to us right away. And the stars! OMG. We used this as a base for hiking in the national Park and it exceeded all expectations. Would stay again and would recommend to friends!

Weekend Trip to Wahi Nanea Place of Relaxation
I had a wonderful peaceful experience. I received very thorough clear directions to the location prior to my arrival. My cabin was the perfect and cozy setup for my three night stay. I had everything I needed for a memorable stay on Alika’s land. If you love stargazing, this is thr place to see them all. If i return to Maui, I will most certainly book another stay on Alika’s Land.

Nice secluded tent spot on grounds near cabins. Chickens and turkeys roamed nearby. Warm showers, drinking water, flushing toilets, trash receptacles and close parking all a bonus over many other camping options in Maui.
