Maui Retreat Catering with Love, Flavor, and Intention

Nourish your guests with soul-centered, farm-to-table cuisine from Lotus Chefs.

Maui’s trusted all-female private chef team for yoga, wellness, and corporate retreats.

Local Retreat Catering on Maui

At Lotus Chefs, we see retreats as sacred opportunities to connect, expand, and truly nourish. Food is more than fuel; it’s an integral part of the retreat experience, setting the tone for connection, restoration, and transformation. Our Maui retreat catering services are designed to match the energy and intention of your event, offering vibrant, flavorful, and deeply nourishing meals.

Our all-female chef team brings decades of combined experience in yoga retreat catering, wellness retreats, corporate gatherings, and private villa events. Every menu is custom-tailored to your group’s needs—whether that means plant-based abundance, fresh local seafood, protein-forward paleo options, or global comfort classics with a tropical twist.

Kyra Mirian Bramble, our founder and head chef, is trained in holistic nutrition, Le Cordon Bleu classic culinary arts, Ayurvedic cooking, and Hawaiian medicinal food, and our supporting chefs bring along additional training in raw food cuisine, herbology, integrative nutrition, somatic therapy, and more. Many of our chefs are also mamas, yoga teachers, and healers of various kinds, and understand the unique dietary considerations of wellness-focused retreats, from energizing light fare to grounding, restorative meals.

In addition to food, we bring an overall energetic ambiance to your retreat with our aligned assistants, intentional beverages, and thoughtful details such as altars, oracle cards, and other ceremonial offerings. We strive to be an asset to your retreat, and our food is designed to empower both the hardworking leaders and the participants on their journey.

As full-time Maui residents, we are deeply connected to the island’s local farms, seas, and artisan food makers. We proudly work with 80% local and/or organic ingredients, practice zero-waste principles whenever possible, and are honored to be a recommended chef team at many of Maui’s most loved retreat venues, including Hale Akua Garden Farms, Wailea Inn, Banyan Tree Bed & Breakfast, and private oceanfront estates.

Catering a retreat is a fully immersive experience that requires heart, skill, and endurance—and for us, it’s an honor. We are here to nourish your guests so you can focus on holding the space for their journey.

At Lotus Chefs, every retreat is unique, and so is every menu we create. We work closely with retreat leaders to craft meals that align with the theme, intention, and energy of the gathering. Whether you’re envisioning Ayurvedic balance, plant-based abundance, fresh island seafood, global comfort dishes, spa-inspired fare, or ceremonial foods, our menus are built from Maui’s freshest local and organic ingredients. We are experts at accommodating dietary needs, from vegan and gluten-free to high protein, and allergen-sensitive menus, ensuring every guest feels nourished and included.

Happy words from our retreat family

Kyra is such an incredible Chef! I have worked with her over the last 8+ years. She has cooked for our yoga retreat on Maui and most recently catered our wedding. Kyra and her team are professional and enjoyable to be around. She has stellar communication skills and is passionate about what she does. Our delicious dinner was absolutely one of the best highlights of our wedding! The level of coordination, organization and execution of our dinner was seamless. Thank you Kyra and team!! Looking forward to working with you again!

Maureen DeLuciaOwner, Mangala Yoga

Stellar quality food with an amazing chef and staff. Kyra and her team nourished my retreat on Maui and provided us with the highest quality, delicious, and beautifully presented food that looked and tasted like art. The entire team, their love and ALOHA is what took it over a 10! MAHALO!

PohalaEsoteric Hawaiian Botanical Medicine

I had the pleasure of hiring Kyra to cater my most recent ShaktiRize retreat in Maui. She showed up on so many levels, from bringing altars, to Kangan water, to dropping into class with the other women. The menu was fully vegan and gluten-free and was not only delicious, but also intentional and presented beautifully. She put a lot of work into featuring local vendors and produce. I can't wait to work with her again.

Jasmine JudsonFounder, ShaktiRize

Kyra and her team provided us with a world-class experience of cuisine during our company retreat in Maui. She also helped get us in touch with other amazing people in the hospitality industry that included a mixologist, massage therapist, and more. Highly recommend!

Armon PetrossianFounder, Coalesce

EPIC!!! Kyra and her team brought the magic with every single meal. I've led many retreats, and now I want to host every one on Maui just so we can collaborate with Kyra's team! Always kind, helpful, inspired-- every meal was beautiful, nutritious, and the topic of conversation throughout our time together! THANK YOU Kyra-- fr helping us connect to nourishment, this place, and each other.

Leah LambFounder, Alchemy of Story

I hosted a retreat on Maui last week and Kyra and her amazing staff nourished us all week. Her food all tastes incredible and looks gorgeous. Some highlights were papayas with cashew lime cream and Thai veggie curry with fresh fish. She sources most of her ingredients locally and everything is so, so fresh. She was a joy to work with and her service and her whole staff is 10/10 amazing. All of my retreat guests with special dietary needs were also well taken care of. She also took special care of my two year old daughter's food preferences 🙂 Thank you Kyra and team!

Hana RafteryYoga, Ayurveda, Somatic Life Coach

I host extended retreats on Maui and have worked with Kyra three times over the past two years. She takes care of us so well, cultivates an excellent atmosphere, and our guests are so pleased and nurtured by the food and her team. The Lotus Chefs are truly excellent.

Joe BellafioreThe Arica Nine Hypergnostic Systems™ Group Training

Kyra was so accommodating to my picky eater status. She called me ahead of the retreat to ensure she had food for the week that I would be able to enjoy. I was very appreciative. Throughout the week I ate way more than I thought I would and even tried some new foods I had never had before. She is an amazing, creative chef who I highly recommend!

Brittany MacKinnonCancer Survivor, Project Koru

We love Kyra and her wonderful team! We hired Kyra for a private family dinner while in Maui, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip. We ended up hiring her for another night that week since our first dinner was so good! With a growing family, going out to dinner takes a lot of coordination, planning, and work. We decided to hire Lotus Chef to come to our house and it was so much easier and more fun that eating out - our meals were perfectly presented and wonderfully flavored and their team left the kitchen spotless at the end of the night. We highly recommend Lotus Chef for your Maui vacation!
