The vast central space has an open beam ceiling making for great acoustics. This is a real highlight of the community in Pukalani.

My little fam and I did a day trip to Maui and as we were driving down from Upcountry Maui (after…read morepicking up our yummy yet quick dinner from Pukalani Superette), we stumbled upon a gift of a HUGE park with the most amazing playground. The playground was a dream: tons of activities to choose from and only 1-2 other families. My review is mainly about the playground but the park was gorgeous, tons of space to run and play, covered picnic areas, and tons of parking. (There is a porta potty which was really the only dim spot for me.) The Kalakupua Playground is really well-taken care of by the neighborhood. Hardly any grafitti, only one tiny area is broken (but it's taped off), and it's very safe - as the entire ground is covered in cut up pieces of tires. There are swing sets on both sides of the playground - and safe toddler swing sets, too. Climbing choices galore, many slides to choose from, a great parkour for kids area, and even a tiered sitting area for parents to wait while their children roam free in the safe, fence-surrounded playground. Truly, truly a gem if you are looking for a playground for your kids. I can't believe we stumbled on it. But we all left so happy: as parents it was nice to let them roam free, my 1-year old daughter knocked out for her nap, and our 6-year old yelled as we were leaving, "Mom, that's a 5-star playground!" I totally agree.

Some people were swimming but after we saw the beautiful ocean, we were not even motivated to put our feet in Anyways, it's a freshwater river/water falls!

My husband and I brought our climbing shoes with us on our week long vacation to Maui specifically…read morebecause we wanted to try out Aloha Rock. And it did not disappoint. Bruce and Jill were running the show on the first day we visited and made us feel super welcomed to the gym. They helped get us setup with week long visitor passes and Bruce even bandaged me up when an overhang route gave me a gnarly flapper. What a gem! We only bouldered here but thought the routes were interesting and very fun to try and figure out. They have three separate bouldering sections so there is something for everyone. We came back later in the trip and had another great visit. Hard to imagine coming back to the island and not spending time at Aloha Rock. (Also, there is a coffee truck in the back that has the best coffee on the island. Seriously, don't miss it!)

Aloha Rock Gym is such a welcome addition to Maui, and our first visit during their grand opening…read moreevent was so much fun. From the moment we got there, the energy was upbeat and inviting. One of the owners personally greeted us--a kind and friendly gentleman who took the time to introduce the space and give us a helpful rundown of how everything works. It set the tone for what turned out to be a really fun, memorable experience and honestly every staff member we encountered was warm, helpful, and friendly too. A quick tip: *everyone* needs to sign a waiver before entering the gym (even if you're just a bystander), so I'd recommend completing it online ahead of time to save yourself a bit of time when you arrive. Even during the busy grand opening, the gym felt surprisingly spacious. The building is large, open, and thoughtfully designed to accommodate a lot of people without feeling claustrophobic. There are climbing "problems" (routes) for all skill levels and a good variety for a wide range of ages. We had such a great time moving between the different walls and testing new problems. Staff and volunteers were readily available to belay, which allowed us to try the rock climbing routes safely. We used to rock climb at the surf shop in Kahului many, MANY years ago and I'm so glad there's a place to climb again. My son had a blast too. Watching him try something new and gain confidence with each attempt was so fun! We returned a few weeks later and ended up spending hours just bouldering. If you want to belay independently, you'll need to get certified. They offer short classes throughout the day for a small fee, or you can test out if you're already familiar with proper technique and safety protocols. That's definitely on my list for next time. Unfortunately they did away with their fist time kamaaina deal, so it's quite a bit pricey ($39 for a kamaaina day pass)--especially for larger families--and can be cost-prohibitive. However, you can spend hours climbing, even a full day, so it feels "worth it" as I easily spend that amount of money at the arcade in less than an hour. I do hope to see more kamaaina/family friendly deals in the future like they did for Valentine's Day. If you're looking to maximize value without committing to a full membership, the 1 week unlimited pass ($60) is the way to go as you can use it multiple times. All in all, I highly recommend Aloha Rock Gym. It's such a fun, active option to have here on Maui. We'll definitely be back again and again.
