Paradise Eco-Adventures

It was the perfect break for our kids — the zip line and aquaball were instant mood enhancers for our kids who were tired of driving in the car to sightsee & were sun drenched from ocean activities. John & Jen were great and the dragon fruit was delicious ! I booked through Crystal who was also awesome. This would also be great fun for adults looking for a fun little adventure break.

Absolutely the biggest rip off of all time. The ball is super slow, goes 50 yards and costs 35 bucks for one trip down the not steep at all hill. Actually stops half way through and you have to walk it the rest of the way. The staff is super rude. Apparently they are in a bigger hurry to leave the property and go drinking. They left us there alone while my 9 year old was changing in the bathroom. The door was swollen shut and we almost had to kick it in to get him out. The zip line is a joke. 1 line that you go across then walk back up the hill and do it again. So the advertising is a lie. It’s not 4 lines it’s 4 times across the same lame line. I suggest you save your money and go to Flyin’ Hawaiian. They are the best by far! We’ve been all around the world doing crazy things like zipping, repelling, spelunking, from the US to Costa Rica. I’ve never once been compelled to write a review until now!

This was such a waste of money. The staffs attitude made our stay downright uncomfortable. The Aquaball, which takes 5 seconds, is overpriced and slow. The zip line is one short line which you have to walk back to. It started to sprinkle and the closed it due to safety for the zip line receiver. I have Zipped in pouring rain with 3 other tour companies on Maui and never have been cancelled. The advertising videos are so misleading. At the end of our tour, the staff left and our son got locked in the bathroom. I spoke to several tour desk operators in Lahina and all said to stay clear of this activity. $ 35 for a 5 second roll down a slow hill. Don’t waste your time and money.

We were in Maui for a week and had a great time, but our two kids probably would consider our visit to Paradise Eco-​Adventures the highlight of our trip. There are many young volunteers who work there, and our guide Jesse and Adam were awesome.
Note: This was NOT just a zip line place, but it was a fantastic dragon fruit farm run by people who really care about the fruit and the visitors — they treated us like family members who were there visiting. In addition, this place had a fantastic zip line as well as (possibly) the only Aqua ball in the U. S (while overlooking the beautiful ocean and beach).
First of all, reservation online was easy and I did it after speaking with owner Crystal who was very friendly on the phone. When we showed up, we were greeted by Jesse (who looked like a blond local guy, but was actually from Oregon). Jesse told us about the dragon fruit and how it grew and then we all got to taste it. Then we went on a short walk toward the zip line and he showed us how to the fruit was grown, as well all the other fruits on the farm (including sugar cane, banana, etc…).
Then for the fun/​fast part — we bought the «combo» package and each person got to go down the zip line 4x (the length of 1.5 football field)…it was a blast. After we recovered a bit and were treated to fresh sugar cane, we got to the Aqua Ball — the kids got inside with some water, and they literally ROLLED all the way down their track — it was a BLAST, and they couldn’t get enough of it.
Bottom line, the beaches, shaved ice, food, and golf are all terrific in Maui. However, visiting Paradise Eco-​Adventures will be the most unique experience the family can do together while visiting Maui. Happy zipping/​rolling!
