A spacious and serene room tucked just off the main lanai, this private suite features a queen bed, full curtain enclosure, and large windows that open to the forest. Soft light, quiet privacy, and gentle beauty make it a deeply restful place to land.

Though part of a larger studio space, the suite becomes your own peaceful cocoon during the retreat, with full-length curtains drawn to create a sense of separation and stillness.

The suite includes access to a nearby bathroom just outside the curtain wall. This small bathroom is shared with one other guest room and also contains the home’s washer/dryer. The laundry area is accessed via a separate hallway (pictured) and is used discreetly during daytime hours only—never through your sleeping space.

This room is ideal for a solo guest who values quiet beauty, light-filled spaciousness, and can comfortably share a bathroom in exchange for an elevated private feel.

Sharing Option: If attending with a close friend, you’re welcome to book this room together. Each guest saves over $500—simply select 2 tickets and contact Michelle to confirm.

Studio Suite layout — The curtain-drawn bed space becomes fully private during the retreat. The nearby bathroom (shared with one King Room) is accessed externally through the King Room or hallway and never through the sleeping area.

Lower Bunk (Queen)
+ Hawai‘i state tax and Eventbrite fees

This shared room is for women who genuinely want to be in community.
Cozy and welcoming, the Sisterhood Room is ideal for those who feel nourished by presence—by quiet conversations, shared rhythms, and the simple comfort of not being alone.

The space includes two queen lower bunks and two twin upper bunks, arranged with care.
At this time, only the lower queen bunks are available. Upper bunks may be offered later if the lower bunks and King Rooms are filled.

The shared bathroom is located just outside the room, through the French doors on the lanai (pictured).
This space is best for grounded guests who feel at ease sharing space with kind company.
