Windward Retreat Center

Located in the picturesque beachside community of Kaʻaʻawa, Hawaiʻi, Windward Retreat Center offers a peaceful and inspiring setting for retreats, workshops, and gatherings. Nestled between lush mountains and pristine white sand beaches, the center provides an ideal space for people to come together to learn, rejuvenate, and connect.

Specifically designed for educators and nonprofit groups, Windward Retreat Center is equipped to accommodate a wide range of programming — from quiet meditation retreats to dynamic team workshops. The main meeting room is a flexible, open space that can be arranged for yoga, Qigong, classroom-style meetings, or relaxed group lounging. Integrated video systems and high-speed internet support both in-person and multimedia presentations with ease.

The center’s accommodations are tailored for a restful stay. All overnight guests sleep in top-quality hotel beds with triple sheeting for a five-star experience. The tranquil setting, combined with thoughtful amenities, ensures a restorative night’s rest.

As a nonprofit rooted in the traditions and values of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), the center emphasizes simplicity, community, and inclusiveness in both its space and its programming.

Whether you’re planning a wellness retreat, leadership workshop, or spiritual gathering, Windward Retreat Center provides an unforgettable setting to support learning, connection, and renewal.
