Angora bunny

Maui Alpaca was the highlight of our trip! We loved meeting & feeding the alpacas. They were all so friendly, gentle, & soft to the touch. The Angora bunnies were also so cute! Our guide was very knowledgeable and made sure everyone had a good time. Highly recommend a visit when you're in Maui!

This exceeded every expectation. Our guide was super sweet and very informative. The alpacas were so funny and full of personality! Loved that they were all female. The angora bunnies were so fluffy and adorable. Loved that they all had Disney princess names. The gift shop was a little small but we got a bunch of cute stickers.

We took a day trip to Maui and I had the brilliant idea of visiting Maui Alpaca. I booked it online and the instructions to get to their location were quite easy (also thanks to the cute alpaca signage!) Our session included a bit of history, introduction to the lady alpacas including feeding them and taking pictures. The alpaca fellas were elsewhere on the farm. You also get to visit their little Angora bunny farm and sit with the ever so fluffy bunnies. Finally, before visiting their cute shop, they teach you a little thing or two about the different types of yarn. All that in an hour. So glad we booked Maui Alpaca. Thank you for a sweet experience.

We are alpaca breeders, and we met with the owner Janet Baldwin when we're in Maui. It's a really lovely property and they have a lot of really neat things that they do with guests! If you're looking for something to do, that's off the beaten path while you're in Maui, this would be an amazing highlight to your vacation!!

The Alpaca Trekking Tour was so fun. We lucked out and had the most beautiful day after a day of rain. Erin was great and so knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour. The Alpacas! The bunnies! Don't miss this fun adventure!

Alpacas on Maui?! Yes, yes, and yes. What an absolutely, cute little farm that was a joy to visit a few weeks ago! They are located in Kula, Maui in a beautiful neighborhood that I had no idea existed even though I've passed it so many times in my life, lol. I made a reservation via email as they were hosting a special event and promptly received a confirmation. Be sure to read the directions they provide on your confirmation and you'll easily find your destination. Upon arriving to the farm, we parked in the grassy area next to the little shed. There was already an alpaca waiting to greet us and we had the perfect photo op immediately upon arrival. We walked towards the fenced in area where the herd of alpacas were. Our guide taught us about alpacas and told us their story. We were given food to feed the alpacas and were allowed to pet them. There was also a brand new baby alpaca. I needed a second to gather myself and contain my excitement, lol. It was SO cute. I wanted to pet it so badly and the owner tried to get it to come, but she just wanted her mama. Haha. I appreciated the effort though! After that, we moved over to the rabbit enclosure and learned about their angora rabbits and were able to pet them as well. It was pretty cool seeing them in their burrows and watch them hop around. We then were taken through a demonstration of how they turn the alpaca wool into yarn and were able to touch and feel the different types of yarn from alpaca, to llama, to rabbit. We also had a fun Q&A portion where everyone got to win small prizes. All in all, it was a nice day at the farm and we had fun seeing the alpacas. It's a unique activity to enjoy with family and friends. Their gift shop is also super cute. It's a little pricey, but truly, raising these alpacas are a labor of love and after learning about them, you can see why it's pricey! Definitely visit if you can, especially during the month of September where kama'aina can get 50% off.

Amazing experience! Our guide, Padma, was friendly and super knowledgeable about the animals. From our visit with the alpacas to our visit with the angoras, Padma helped us get to know our new furry friends while answering lots of questions. At the end, she gave a demonstration of how the fur becomes yarn. Interesting stuff! This might be my husband's favorite stop on Maui this trip. Worth a visit! *Easy parking, restroom, and water provided.

This was such a great experience! Erin was super friendly and educated on all things alpaca and angora bunny. She had so much information to share in a fun, entertaining way for both adults and kids. They have a little shop w yarn and gifts from their wool. So fun having wool from an animal we know by name. Highly recommend them! Side note: their outhouse was adorable! It had cute signs and flowers and essential oils. I love how dolled up and welcoming it was - nice to know if you gotta go it's as comfy as it can get!

Sassy!

Phenomenal experience meeting the alpacas it was therapeutic and so much fun! As a bonus surprise we also met four angora bunnies who are all named after Disney princesses And it was incredibly educational with our guide Joy who is a local and she showed us how fibers can be harvested and be turned into yarn with hand powered tools. I have to also point out that our guide Joy took the time to make the portable potty super clean and pleasant before we arrive and this attention to detail is super appreciated. Thank you Janet and Joy!

Spinning fleece to yarn, gift shop has alpaca yarn made from the ones you just met!

GET UP CLOSE WITH ALPACAS AND ANGORA BUNNIES. My wife knits and this was a must-visit for her since they have a giftshop that sells alpaca made goods and yarn. Location is upcountry but the road is very easy to drive on with only a short dirt road and small hill to climb once you turn into the actual farm, you park near the porta potty and farming equipment and then walk down. The visit starts right away with meeting and feeding the alpacas, the owner and staff clearly are passionate about animals and the ground are well maintained and each Alpaca is named with distinct personalities. One of them was a rescue and it was sad to see how scared it was of humans. The others aren't so shy and will come right up to you and gently eat from the bowl, they will also eat from your hands but ask staff first if its OK. The kids loved feeding and were absolute smiles the entire time. After this you can see HUGE and furry Angora rabbits, they'll let you take them in your lap and pet them. We got to process the fleece into yarn using simple mechanical machines that "poofed" the fleece, separated them into strands, and then a spinning wheel to turn it into yarn. My wife was super proud she was called a "natural" at spinning. The giftshop has yarn made from some of the alpacas you just met!

Such a great experience! My daughter and I are visiting Maui from Big Island and decided to do this on our last day. She loves animals and talking. Our your guide, Erin, did such an amazing job. She was very friendly toward my talkative 7 year old. Erin answered all our questions about Alapaca and the farm. The animals are polite, silly, and very well cared for. We love supporting educational organizations who take a lot of pride and care of their animals. Staff is also really kind. We appreciate the hospitality. My daughter is already asking to go back.

Sarah M.

We had a lovely tour here recently. The word "tour" made me think more walking, but really, you just get to hang out with and learn about the alpacas and bunnies! It was great to spend a lot of time with them, and we enjoyed it very much. Our guide/host was very knowledgeable about the animals, and the bunnies and most of the alpacas were very friendly. I feel like we learned a lot, and it was relaxing being around cool creatures in such a pretty setting. Make sure to read the instructions you will receive via email before you come. Their comments will help you to find the entrance more easily!

We finally had the opportunity to tour the Boo Boo Zoo today. We had heard so many positive things…read moreover the years, so our expectations were set pretty high when we arrived at the very humble location. We were cheerfully welcomed by Sylvan & his greeting committee: his beloved goat, Baby, and her friends. We were led on an informative tour through the property while interacting w/ all the Zoo's residents. We encountered chickens, ducks, peacocks, Axis deer, a wide variety of birds: pigeons, cockatiels, cockatoos, tame mina birds, a 2 y.o. pig w/ a neurological disorder - who wouldn't have survived if he wasn't given necessary help & treatment, 124 rescue cats- many of whom need daily medical treatment for the rest of their lives, an orphan bull who was rescued from Hana highway, and more! Sylvan has a heart of gold and has sacrificed so much to care for countless injured, ill, or homeless creatures. He never once asked for an ounce of anything from anyone attending our tour, yet it's obvious that caring for these animals is a costly endeavor. As a result, we will be making regular donations to support them. If you have a heart for animals, I highly recommend making a visit to the Boo Boo Zoo -- it's a fortunate opportunity to spend time w/ Sylvan & his precious animals. In our case, they definitely met & surpassed our expectations!!

They are getting four stars from me for a few reasons: 1…read more They picked up the phone fairly quickly 2. provided spot on advice as to what to do next with an injured bird we found 3. Thank goodness for 1 & 2 since they are literally the only injured animal biz on Maui That shared, the guy who answered the phone was barely tolerant of having to repeat himself more than once with the phone number of the place he was sending us to. When I called back to verify the number i(it was missing a digit) he was even more annoyed. Thank goodness we both had her eye on the prize... Saving a little Java Sparrow!

What a racket. So 4 friends of mine wanted to do a trail ride...we did one a few years back in Maui…read moreand was so great. There were several problems with the farm. We booked the ride last minute and the day before we got a text asking for weights. I weight 215 and that is there cut off. I'm also 6'2 and not fat, just fit and tall. The text said they have a strict 215 policy and anyone over will not be able to ride. So I get there and with my boots, fully clothed and carrying the saddlebag with water, I weighed 221lbs. I was disappointed but figured if they have a herd of small horses I definitely don't want to hurt them. I told them that's ok just want a full refund. My friends went on the ride. They didn't love it. Was promised hidden waterfalls...but they were so far away that only 2 of 3 of my friends were actually able to see them. Miles away in the mountain. So when we went to get the refund they said no refunds. That they notified me of the weight policy. Although in the fine print of their policy it says, "we will work with you if over up to 10lbs" ...they must have forgotten about that because they quickly became rude and dismissive. Acting like we took a spot when 1/2 the herd was not going for a ride. Also we booked 24hrs before got the text 12 hrs before. And couldn't cancel if we wanted to because their policy is need to cancel with 24hr notice. Anyhow we are around horses all the time in California. When kids go out for 10 mins and start crying we bring them back and refund the parents money in full. That is good practice. For me being 6lbs heavier fully dressed with boots, if they weren't going to work with me I should have been refunded. If they were nice I would have made a donation or went and got carrots to feed all the horses. Instead I went for a hike at the ridge trail while my friends rode. Anyhow...despite their terrible business practices the ride isn't that great. Would skip this one for sure. There is a great one in up country with beautiful scenery of hillside and ocean.

The outdoor shower is amazing in the morning, midday and nighttime. The splash pool is private and ideal for midday cool-offs. The view overlooking the waterfall and ocean NEVER gets old and provides the most tranquil vista. The sunrises are what dreams are made of, we'll never forget our first one the morning after we arrived: the valley appears pitch black before the sun starts slowly spilling light over the luscious rain forest. The backyard waterfall is one of the most beautiful and stunning throughout all of Maui. The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and totally made us feel like VIPs. The place itself was immaculate, clean and simply magical. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil our meals required. PRO TIPS: do the farm tour & sauna, sleep in the guest house when it rains, take coffee on the sun deck closest to the waterfall, and frequently pinch yourself because we are certain our time here was an absolute dream. Mahalo and much love from the newlyweds!
