Nestled in the heart of Maui, this private barn reflects the harmony between craftsmanship, functionality, and nature’s beauty.
Behind every new horse barn lies an equestrian’s vision, a space where passion for horses and design meet. This breathtaking barn, set against Maui’s sweeping ocean views, was thoughtfully designed for a client who raises and trains Quarter Horses for polo. The result is a seamless blend of island charm, durability, and refined equestrian living.
An Island Haven for Horses
From the moment you arrive, the barn exudes warmth. Its crisp white siding contrasts beautifully with deep wood tones and classic cross-buck details on the Barn Doors.
Inside, soft natural light filters through Dutch Windows, illuminating the golden hues of the wood and the elegant black finishes of the stall systems.
Each of the six Sliding Stall Fronts features a V-Shaped Yoke, inviting connection between horse and handler while maintaining safety. The yoke design encourages visibility and social interaction, helping horses feel calm and content. The lower portion of each door incorporates heavy-duty welded mesh, ensuring exceptional airflow while keeping bedding in place.
Every door glides effortlessly on precision track hardware, offering durability and smooth operation in humid, coastal climates like Maui.

Built for Comfort and Strength
Behind every stall front are Half-Grilled Partition Panels, designed to balance privacy and ventilation. The grilled upper section allows natural light and airflow to circulate freely, while the solid lower panel minimizes drafts and provides horses with a sense of enclosure and security. These partitions are built using our galvanized steel tubing, coated with a corrosion-resistant zinc layer and finished with a premium powder-coat finish for a timeless, durable aesthetic.

To complete each stall, Dutch Doors and Dutch Windows line the exterior. The three Dutch Doors open from both the top and bottom, allowing horses to peek outside and enjoy the island breeze. Constructed entirely from select lumber and reinforced with steel frames, these doors embody the balance of strength and natural beauty.
The three Dutch Windows mirror this functionality, allowing for adjustable airflow, sunlight, and visibility, all while maintaining the barn’s cohesive architectural design.

Nearby, a Hinged Tack Room Door offers convenient access to equipment and tack, maintaining a clean, organized flow within the barn layout. Every element in this project, from the stall fronts to the smallest latch, was custom-made to endure the island’s conditions while enhancing the horses’ comfort. The combination of mesh ventilation, heavy-gauge steel, and warm wood tones results in a space that feels both luxurious and grounded in function.

Whether it’s preparing for a polo match or simply enjoying the stillness of the evening, this barn offers more than just shelter, it’s a place of balance, care, and belonging.
At American Stalls, every project begins with a vision. Here in Maui, that vision came to life in perfect harmony with its surroundings, a testament to how thoughtful design, expert craftsmanship, and a deep love for horses can create something truly timeless.
