Awesome experience!! I was there for nearly a month and loved every moment. The therapists were fantastic. The excursions really helped with finding joy when newly sober. I really enjoyed my time there. Sadly, insurance ended my stay because I was doing so well. Maui, if you read this, I love you guys and I am so appreciative for helping me through such a vulnerable time. I couldn’t recommend you guys enough.

This place was beyond anything I’ve ever experienced and truly changed my life. I’ve been to other rehabilitation facilities and all pale in comparison. From the techs to the therapists and the masseuse this place was healing for me physically, spiritually, and mentally. We did activities like go on hikes and snorkeling. We had meetings with therapists and others living in the house and really grew as a group. Whenever we needed ANYTHING there was a tech around to help us. The house is a beautiful estate with a gorgeous view of lahina waterfront and adds to the magic. Everyday, we had chef cooked meals and anything we did not have, they would find a way to make it possible. I left here in tears because I truly had built such strong friendships it felt like leaving a family but they prepared me in every way possible to overcome my addiction to alcohol. Today I am sober and I owe that to the fundamentals and compassion given to me at Maui Recovery. I am still in contact with most of the people I was in with as you bond and grow so much here. To anyone struggling with addiction and entering into the rehabilitation process-I couldn’t recommend this facility any more.

The most amazing place I have been for recovery. They offer more services with small group setting. I felt welcomed and safe from the moment I arrived. Staff are compassionate and caring and always available if there was a need. I will stay in contact with clients and staff as they have become my friends.

Other Forms of Payment

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Per session payment lets you pay for each treatment at the time of service. You may also pay for a certain number of sessions up front and then pay for more if needed. This format allows you to tailor the financial investment to your specific needs and avoid having a large lump sum payment due at the end of the treatment program.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financing your treatment can make treatment more accessible. You'll work with your care provider to set up payment plans, including interest rates and repayment timelines. Financing options vary widely and not all programs offer them, so be sure to get the full details before enrolling in treatment. If you have insurance or other benefits, financing may help you cover your remaining out of pocket expenses.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

24-Hour Clinical Care

Due to the physical risks of detox, it is ideal to complete this stage of recovery in 24-hour clinical care in Hawaii. In this setting, medical professionals assist you every step of the way. Doctors and addiction specialists ensure that your detox process is as comfortable and safe as possible by treating physical and psychological symptoms of withdrawal.

Medically Assisted Detox

Medical detox is the safest way to help rid your body of addictive substances. It takes place in an inpatient setting under the supervision of licensed medical professionals who monitor your vitals and provide any necessary medications to alleviate potential withdrawal symptoms. Typically, this is the first step in the addiction recovery process, and it is often followed by inpatient treatment.

Inpatient

Inpatient rehab enables clients to remove themselves from the distractions, stressors, and triggers of the outside world while they focus exclusively on their recovery. Clients receive housing, meals, and access to medical and mental health care as they regain stability, particularly following detox. They also engage in extensive psychotherapy, which may include group and family therapy as well as individual counseling. Many programs also offer holistic treatment and/or recovery-focused life skills training.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) enable clients to live at home and continue working or attending school while also receiving robust therapeutic support for addiction. Clients attend multiple treatment sessions per week, where they typically receive a combination of psychotherapy, addiction education and recovery skills training, and evidence-based complementary care. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is also available in many intensive outpatient rehabs. Treatment typically involves between nine and 20 therapeutic hours weekly. IOP is ideal for clients in early recovery.

Outpatient

Clients receiving treatment in an outpatient rehab typically require less intensive support and supervision than do persons in inpatient care. Many have already completed inpatient programs and are weeks or months along in their recovery journey. Outpatient treatment generally involves the continuation of treatments begun in inpatient care, including addiction counseling and life skills development. Some outpatient programs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) for clients in opioid and/or alcohol recovery.

12-Step

12 step programs promote long-term sobriety through a process of personal growth rooted in spiritual principles. Participants work through the 12 steps by learning to define and address the root causes of their addiction, to take responsibility for their choices and actions, and to relinquish control over that which cannot be changed. Participants attend regular, anonymous 12 step meetings and are mentored by a self-selected sponsor. Specialized formats, including age and gender specific groups, are available.

Aftercare Support

Rehab aftercare programs ensure clients' continued access to personalized care after the completion of formal addiction treatment. Case managers and recovery teams assess clients' needs and goals and identify the rehab aftercare services to best support clients' sustained sobriety. Clients may receive a variety of services to facilitate their successful reintegration into their home, workplace, and community, including peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction, among other programs.

Telehealth

Telehealth in Hawaii is the use of communications technologies to deliver healthcare services from a distance. This may include primary medical care, mental health services, and substance use disorder treatment. Consult with your health care provider to determine if this option is suitable for your needs.

Intervention Services

For anyone struggling with substance abuse but reluctant to seek help, a drug intervention in Hawaii can help to provide that essential motivation. Drug intervention services provide a professional interventionist to assist families with this process. The interventionist helps the individual understand the extent of the damage caused by substance abuse and how treatment works. This clinical perspective can be a helpful addition to the family's personal expressions of concern.

Treatments

Alcohol use disorder (AUD), also called alcoholism, can be mild, moderate, or severe. Symptoms include being unable to limit alcohol consumption and feeling strong cravings to drink alcohol. Individuals with AUD may have tried to quit drinking but were unsuccessful. Typically, professional rehab in Hawaii is necessary to help individuals overcome alcohol addiction. This treatment provides the necessary evidence-based therapies, medication, and support for long-term recovery.

Drug rehab in Hawaii is for individuals suffering from substance use disorders. Treatment addresses the many issues involved with addiction, typically through a combination of medical and psychotherapy treatments.

Mental Health And Substance Abuse

Opioid Addiction

In Hawaii, substance abuse treatment programs address addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. Care levels include outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization. Therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, equine therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, skills training, and recovery groups can help you to establish a solid recovery and develop a support system (or strengthen an existing one) to increase your chances of long-term recovery success.

In Hawaii, dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs recognize the importance of treating substance use disorders and mental health conditions simultaneously. They offer various levels of care, depending on your needs. Treatment settings include detox, outpatient, residential rehab, and partial hospitalization options. Using a combination of evidence-based and holistic therapies, like cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, adventure therapy, and acupuncture, clinicians address substance use disorders and co-occurring disorders.

During inpatient drug rehab treatment, mental health services play a central role in your plan of care. During your stay at the center, you are constantly monitored and supported by clinical staff and mental health professionals. Standard mental health therapies and treatments include group and individual counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and many others. Extra amenities, like recreational therapies, vary by facility.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services

During cognitive behavioral therapy in Hawaii, patients learn about their mental and behavioral health conditions and then learn techniques to help them change their patterns of thinking and behavior. Tools such as stress management, coping, and assertiveness are used to break free from patterns of substance abuse.

During dialectical behavior therapy in Hawaii, you'll focus on developing skills that allow you to manage daily life challenges. The main areas of focus are emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance, and mindfulness.

Equine Therapy

Motivational interviewing is simply a conversation about change. The therapist seeks to encourage the client's personal motivation to change and collaborate with them to make a commitment to change. This technique is often used in drug rehab therapy in Hawaii.

Recreational therapy supports addiction recovery by helping you engage in activities that improve your physical and mental health. Participating in creative arts, nature activities, and sports helps reduce cravings, focus your attention on positive things, alleviate stress, and build a supportive community.

Leaving this review on behalf of a former patient/client: "My time at Maui recovery was some of the hardest, best spent time of my life. The reason it was hard was on me, getting healthy is tough even if you have Hawaii and all the wonderful accommodations to take the edge off. I needed somewhere that was a little more personalized that one might receive at a "court ordered rehab" or some jumbo facility, MR provided that attention and atmosphere that I specifically needed. If you are looking for treatment around addiction, mental health, or some combo of both - I cannot stress how much I would suggest this place. Truly it changed/saved my life."

Blake March

110% recommend!!! Words don't even describe it. To be honest; if I went anywhere else for treatment, I wouldn't have made it. From all the therapists, staff, amazing adventures, and memories. This place is Top Shelf!!! From the first call to the last hug goodbye, they treat you like VIP Look no further, this is the place. Don't even second guess it, Maui recovery should be #1 on every list.

I attended Maui Recovery for trauma and C-PTSD. I was a grieving a complicated loss of a loved one who died by SI with SUD among other things. It’s a small, boutique Level 3.1 residential treatment center (around 12 clients max) in a stunning, peaceful setting. The program offers trauma-informed care rooted in nature, experiential therapy, and personal transformation. Pros: Beautiful location and calming environment Weekly surf therapy, hikes, kayaking, equine therapy, swimming, nature-based groups Freedom and autonomy (they don’t confiscate phones, cords, etc.) Great for those burned out by overmedicalized, rigid psychiatric care Deeply personal, emotionally safe space for healing Cons: MDs were seen via telehealth during my stay and not often. No bloodwork or physical. Some staff were a bit harsh; a few techs needed additional training Scheduling and communication issues came up at times Not ideal if you need high structure, supervision, or crisis stabilization This place is best for those who are emotionally aware, not in acute crisis, and seeking gentle but profound trauma healing. It's not a hospital setting—it’s a nurturing environment for rebuilding trust in yourself and others. Overall, I’m grateful for the experience and would return in a heartbeat if I needed to. If you’re going through insurance and it aligns with your needs, go. If you’re private pay and comparing other Level 3.1 centers, Maui is worth considering based on your goals. Be mindful of your physical limitations. Bring a light backpack. I recommend bringing hiking shoes and trecking sticks if needed, as some of the hikes can be steep and muddy. Also rashguard and water shoes are ideal. You have opportunities to go grocery stores. Amazon is a bit a slower

I was on the fence about coming all the way to Maui for treatment, and I've never been more glad to have taken a leap of faith. I live in MA, which meant about 11hrs on a plane to get here- that's difficult enough for anyone, but a plane ride like that while beginning to detox was very daunting. In the end, I went with my gut, and was rewarded with more than I could have possibly asked for. Yes, I got sober, but what I want anyone reading this review to undersand is that I got so much more from this experience. There are many rehab facilities in the US, and a lot of them can offer the same standard of care, in terms of the core addiction treatment. What they cannot offer is the type of spiritual healing that Maui Recovery seems to specialize in- for those who are truly ready to quit, and just need a safe space to begin again, there is no place on earth like it. I was able to reconnect with a part of myself that we tend to ignore in our modern society, as were all of my fellow patients- there's just something about getting out and into nature that heals us on a very deep level. I should mention that I have been to inpatient detox/rehab something like 20 times in my life. I was a heroin addict for several years, and it took MANY tries at getting sober before the treatment 'stuck'. in February of this year, after 5 years without opiates, I realized I had become addicted to alcohol, and needed help once again. While the first few days I felt a bit off (I was detoxing, so this is to be expected) once I got to know the other patients and the staff, I felt completely at home. The views from the property are downright stunning, and I kept having to remind myself of where I was- between the catered meals, the scenery, and how nice the facility is, it felt like I was staying at the four seasons. The staff are incredible, and Amo clearly places an emphasis on hiring only those who truly understand and can relate to those struggling with addiction. While not every group was perfect and I didn't see eye to eye with every person on staff, one thing that was never in question was their unwavering commitment to helping us. The clinical staff is top-notch, which is to be expected from a facility like this. What I was pleasantly surprised by was the 'techs' on staff- the folks who are with the patients throughout the day, but aren't providing therapy/medical treatment. These guys were INCREDIBLE! Most of them are folks in recovery, so they get what the work is about, but beyond that, they are decent, hardworking people, who care deeply about the patients they work with. And, the adventures- my god! This review would be twice as long if I attempted to list all the wonderful things we did in the 5 weeks I was there, but I'll mention a few of the highlights: surf therapy, waterfall hikes, cliffside hikes, beach days, stargazing, pool time, watergun (and balloon) fights, AA meetings in the backyard, roadtrips in the van sharing our favorite songs, singing together, and hanging out with the amazing and fabulous Betsy. All that said, my favorite part of every day was chatting with the other patients as we watched the sun setting behind Lanai, the island that the facility looks out towards (Photos attached). Spending 5 weeks in the sun, the rainforest, the rivers, and in the ocean, all while receiving the unwwavering support and encouragement from the staff and my fellow patients, was lifechanging. For those on the fence, I strongly recommend reaching out through the website, and talking with the folks who run this amazing place. They do accept insurance, and as others have mentioned, it's worth advocating for yourself and negotiating on the rates- that said, there is no price too high for the experience I had.

This month, I’m celebrating one year sober—and it’s all because of this place. About a year ago, I came to Maui Recovery as a client. Now I work here. That alone should tell you how deeply this place changed my life. I’ve been to multiple treatment centers, but this one gave me something different: structure, purpose, real healing—and a lot of adventure. I even moved to Hawaii because I fell in love with the people, the program, and the aloha spirit here. The rooms are private and the property is unreal—pool, hot tub, sunsets that don’t even look real. It’s so nice, I thought it had to be fake. See it yourself. You get daily group therapy, individual counseling a few times a week, and most days include an adventure: surfing with Josh (he gets anyone on a board), snorkeling, hiking, beach days, and more. But what truly makes Maui Recovery special is the people. Blake, now lead tech, might look intimidating—muscles, serious face—but he’s one of the kindest guys I’ve met. I opened up to him about stuff I’ve never shared with another man. He’s real. Charlie is sweet, grounded, deeply caring—and one of the warmest people you’ll ever meet. She’s also beautiful inside and out, with a calm presence that makes people open up without even trying. She leads with empathy and heart every single day. Jen hugged me on my very first day, when I was barely holding it together. She instantly made me feel seen, cared for, and human again. She even made sure I was hydrated and taken care of before I could ask. That kindness never stopped. She’s high-energy, nurturing, funny, and a total firecracker who makes every client feel safe and supported. Kimo is like your wise recovery uncle. He lives and breathes recovery and is respected all across the island. Demo works both front-line and behind-the-scenes. One of the hardest workers there. Smart, calm, and solid. Betsy is the heart of the program. She helped me realize that abstinence was the right path for me—not by force, but with guidance, wisdom, and love. Her spiritual strength, sense of humor, and deep compassion created a space where I could be honest and grow. She’s one of my favorite people in the world and a major reason I’m still sober today. Betsy gave me the tools, the confidence, and the spark to believe that this new life was possible—and worth it. Kate filled in on adventures when Betsy was away, and I had an amazing time. She’s creative, passionate, and helped me find joy again. She helped shape how I lead. Dr. J is intense—in the best way. Some clients are unsure at first, but almost every single one ends up loving her. She’s honest, passionate, and deeply respected in the community. If you’re serious about change, she’ll match you with that energy. Lynn, now the Clinical Director, is hands-down the best counselor I’ve ever worked with. She was my counselor when I was a client, and I still carry her insights with me. She’s sharp, no-nonsense, and full of heart. She leads with high standards—great work or nothing. Amory, the Program Director, was kind and welcoming when I arrived. He’s respected and caring. Dr. Chester and Dr. Matt are skilled professionals. That’s all you need to know—they get the job done. Julie, the massage therapist, is fantastic. Everyone looks forward to seeing her. Finally, there’s me. I work as a PA and help run adventures. Sometimes I work doubles and spend the whole day out with clients. I bring energy, humor, and heart into everything I do. Before this, I worked all over the world in the maritime industry — first as a commercial diver, then as a robotics technician, and later for a small Norwegian company that specialized in boat davits and life safety equipment. I’ve worked on ships, offshore rigs, and in ports around the world — but nothing compares to the sense of purpose I’ve found here. I’m strong, grateful, grounded, a little too handsome for my own good, and proud to be someone clients can count on as they rebuild their lives. This place didn’t change who I am — it reminded me who I’ve always been

Words cannot express my full gratitude for Maui Recovery. It was beyond any expectations. The staff is absolutely amazing, from the manager, to the techs, to the counselors/therapists, and the providing doctor. They are professional, caring, and supportive in every way. The property is built on a beautiful, tucked away property overlooking the ocean. The atmosphere is set up in a way that feels very comfortable, with both privacy and the gathering areas. The pool and hot tub were a surprise bonus. I came out a whole new person, healthier than I have ever been in my adult life, holistically. I left with the proper post-care resources, hope, courage, optimism, and a whole new, positive mindset. I tell you, Maui Recovery was transformational for me. Life-changing. I’ve tried other types of support and help for addiction in the past, and MR is the only one that truly helped. It was the best decision I have ever made, and I’m grateful to a new start to my life sober.

Undeniably beautiful, lots of adventure/experiential therapy (you go surfing every week, they take you to lots of beaches) but if you are the type of person who needs structure and a lot of supervision this is not the place for you. Often times the groups are just going to the beach. If you don’t have intense cravings by all means you should go. The executive director, Amo, is great. A lot of the techs are awesome and will go out of their way to help. That being said, Keturah is a callous, detached, and apathetic therapist, and the irony of her teaching an “nutrition in recovery” group every week is not lost on me either. Also, I cannot stress this enough, NEGOTIATE IF YOU ARE SELF PAY!!!!! The price they tell you is not set in stone, they’ll likely be willing to take way less than the price they give you. Also, Kate I would like my mug

Maui Recovery is quite littearly heaven on earth. The staff treat you like family, the property is absolutely stunning and well manicured featuring an ocean view from the saline pool (I personally don’t like chlorine pools so this was a bit win for me!), and walking barefoot on a lawn unaltered by pesticides were a huge bonus too. Fragrant flowers fall from the trees, and the backdrop are breath taking mountains that will make you feel like you are living on a movie set. The facility is clean, the rooms are very nice (many offer ocean views) others have mountain / vegetation views. The adventure therapy is top notch, as we have traveled through the island to Snorkle, chase waterfalls, watch whales and bond as a group. I have had the pleasure of spending a month here, and the woman who is leaving Maui today is a strong, empowered version of the terrified girl that walked through the gates of maui recovery one month ago. Their clinical team is the best I have ever seen. I healed a decade of PTSD through brain spotting and CBT. They also other best-in-class family systems therapy through their well trained, ethical, and professional therapists. I regained a 4 year long estranged relationship with a close family member, and for that I am eternally grateful. The group therapy sessions proved healing and cathartic, and I give my highest recommendation to Maui Recovery for anyone who seeks to live a life of freedom & recovery. As I told my self when I found maui recovery online “just get on the plane.” Now, I pass this message to you: if you are committed to your recovery and need a vibrant, warm environment to heal, look no further than maui recovery. Extras: good food (catered), great kitchen to cook in, outdoor grill facing the ocean, large comfortable lanai for sun set watching, trips to the store frequently to buy groceries and personal items, Al la carte surf lessons (I went surfing with private lessons every day which proved incredibly healing), lots of community, passion, & unconditional love offered at Maui Recovery. Don’t let a few bad reviews from clients who were not interested in healing ruin your chances of ending up at this beautiful healing center. Signing off with love <3 Chandlar Strauss
