One of the highlights of our Maui vacation was visiting the Garden of Eden Botanical Gardens. It is a must see if you want to see a real tropical jungle complete with names of all the plants that you see on Maui. The resident peacock even posed for pictures! We made a point of stopping in at the Fractal Gallery...

Owner description:
Aloha and welcome to Mauis Garden Of Eden Arboretum. An Arboretum is a park dedicated to trees. We also feature hundreds of lowland rainforest species of flowers,shrubs,and ground covers as well.We began this project in1991 with 30 acres of densely overgrown jungle, now after investing more than 20yrs of physical labor and 2 million dollars, we have created one of Hawaii's most visited botanical gardens. We have many plants found nowhere else or are uncommon to Hawaii, such as rare Amazon fruits and medicinal species, endangered hardwoods, spice, exotic nut trees, ferns and so much more...A botanical Disneyland with over 2 miles of maintained graveled walking trails...A truly educational facility with over 700 plants botanically labeled. Try to allow at least 45 minutes to explore.We feature great views and photo opportunities but no direct access to the waterfall or pools.If you are only interested in restrooms (we now have improved facilities) You can do so for free 2 miles down the road.A portion of your entry fee is donated to the nature conservatory. The cost to keep our gate open averages $1,000/dy so we sincerely thank you for your support,,,especially those who have contributed beyond our entry fee. Most botanical gardens have teams of volunteers and use chemicals to curb costs. Our entire staff are well paid professionals, and we are almost entirely a chemical free park. Thank you for visiting, we do take your comments to heart

We ate lunch in the gazebo which worked out pretty well. Nicely labelled plants, interesting views of the waterfalls. There was a little cafe there. I'm not sure I'd visit more than once, but it wasn't a bad way to spend an hour.

Great place to stop & let the kids run around to break up the drive to Hana. Lots of pretty views, peacocks, fliers, trees, & lighting. I put a 4 for value, but I'm not sure how much we paid. The whole drive was pretty much the same view, but this was a good, safe stop for our little kids...

We were glad we did go in. There was a small fee to get in , and since we were 4 in our family, we hesitated. But on the way back on the Road to Hana, we decided to go. Good thing we did. It was a labor of Love from the gardener/creator. Try to hike as much of the...

It was a nice place to stop and eat a picnic if you need to but the sights here aren't anything worth paying extra for.

A wonderful, self-guided place to get lost in. It’s basically a giant garden but the trees make it feel like a forest almost, and it’s evident that it’s a labor of love—lots of different types of trees, plants, etc, most with informative labels. As to the grumbles about cost, you can tell where the money goes. We spent probably 90...

This garden is aptly named for it is absolutely beautiful. It was quiet the day we visited and we had to wait out a little rainfall before our walk. The colors, variety of plant material, scenic views, and plant ID plates may this a glorious stop on the Road to Hana. There is also a quality gift shop on the...
