We were so lucky to find this lovely place while the tsunami alert was in place. The people were so welcoming and helpful. The setting is delightful and the sound of the birds is so peaceful.

Not close to Volcanoes

The staff was so friendly. There were lots of animals: peacocks, cats, frogs, geese. We loved it! We booked it to be closer to Volcanoes National Park, without realizing there was no road that cuts across. We had to go amidst to Hilo in order to go back down to the Volcanoes, so it wasn't the most convenient, but we loved the vibe!

Great private cabin on the property. They moved things around for me when I booked multiple individual days. I appreciated that. Great location.

So welcoming from day one. Beautiful property and we had a private cabin. My little daughter was amazed by all the property had to offer and wanted to come back early from our volcano adventures everyday.

This was booked last minute due to a last minute cancellation for another property. Beautiful property especially for the earthy type of individual. It was perfect for my needs however I don’t see people staying here that require more of an upscale type of setting. Leaving the room to use the community restroom is probably the only thing that was not too thrilling. All in all it fulfilled my expectations.

You get what you pay for

This is not the place to stay if you're looking for basic cleanliness. Unfortunately this place needs to work on their property, but I suppose you get what you pay for. I could not stay here because it was in such bad shape, but had to pay for it, which was disappointing. They had indoor furniture outdoors on the lanai covered in a fine layer of silt, the 'gym' equipment was covered in rust, and the bathroom was filled with flies...I would say it was like camping, but most campsites take cleanliness very seriously, and I could always smell the cleaning products in most camp bathrooms. Also, who puts upholstered couches outside in a tropical rainforest? Thats asking for trouble. This place obviously hasn't used heavy duty cleaning products on anything for a very long time, or done any thorough cleaning in a long time. Not a place to relax.

This property surpassed my expectations for a quiet and restorative retreat. It seems that others who have booked do not read the clearly stated events that are posted and then are surprised. The property goes they great pains to alert travelers before hand. I found their care and communication to be outstanding. This is a working, biodynamic farm... in paradise. To enjoy yourself fully here is to acknowledge that fact and believe all of the info posted. I can't wait to go back and will in the Fall.
