We stayed 4 nights in the sunset cabin and it was truly a fantastic experience! Syliva was welcoming and helped us settle in and answered all of our questions. The space was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot! The views were beautiful and the property felt magical! ...and the fresh banana's were delish! We truly enjoyed ourselves! Mahalo!

The garden cabin far exceeded our expectations. We had an amazing Hawai’i experience living in a jungle of every fruit you could imagine with an incredible view. So peaceful and quiet I could have spent my entire time on the island on that property.

Absolute gem ! We stayed here for our week long trip celebrating my daughter turning 18 . Comfortable beds , beautiful grounds and the most amazing noises at night ( coqui frogs and trees) . I grew up in Puerto Rico and adored hearing the frogs all night . Perfect little outdoor kitchen were we made breakfast every morning .Would stay here again !

Don't miss out, it's well worth it!

This was my favorite stay on the big island. I stayed four places. This one was the most "Hawaii" I would say. It was gorgeous and lush. Beautiful flowers and trees plus goats and chickens to pet! The property is just awesome, far enough away from town but not too far to be annoying. Still plenty of places near by for breakfast and coffee as well. I stayed two nights and they were the most restful and comfortable nights. The birds and cows make noise in the morning but you can close the door and window and barely hear it. I preferred to sleep with everything open and felt completely safe.

Our favorite stay!

We are campers, we love animals, and we love the outdoors, and being grounded to our environment! This was our favorite stay in HI. We stayed in ocean front condos, rainforests volcanic caves, and cute motels, but this place was absolutely our favorite! We loved Kimba, the cat, the goats, the chickens, and the big ol pig!! The frogs and stars are night are wonderful. We were greeted at the beginning by a very kind person. She walked us to our cabin and showed us around. We stayed at the bamboo cabin (BEAUTIFUL!) bamboos everywhere! we had out restroom, kitchen area, fridge, and shower. It was so cozy and romantic.

The night life of the forest is incredible. The place was relatively easy to find and Sylvia helped me every step of the way. I loved everything about my stay. So grateful for the warmth and hospitality. Can’t wait to come back. The animals, oh my heart. Frank and the chickens and the goats. Uni and I named the other two Eric and Suzie. I ate well, fresh and got to check out some great spots nearby. The food, the views, the company. Unparalleled. Mahalo. Until next time.

UNSAFE UNHEALTHY.We booked the sunset room for 5 nights big mistake.When we pulled back the dirty sheets on the bed 2 giant cockroaches ran out.There is no outdoor lighting making it unsafe to go outside at night.There was feces on the wall in the bathroom junk though out the property.The sheets were old and dirty the shower had only cold water.Most horrible place ive ever been .This place should be condemned.Lost our money on top of it they refused to give us a refund.They only gave back a very small portion.This place should be removed of the site so others won't fall victim.

It was a great experience to witness first hand the Hawaiian spirit starting with my stay in this Retreat FarmHouse; I booked for a small cabin for myself but to my surprise a day or two; through their welcoming email I found out that I was upgraded to Garden Cottage, amazing, yeah!😍 I got the whole place by myself that could accommodate a small family. Thankful, thankful for the management/staff for the warm welcome. I felt the closer connection with the nature in the middle of the lush; special mention to the Iris and Zach for being so warm and welcoming (they even provided the sweetest bananas I’ve ever tasted and I shared with the tropical birds, the papaya, and the pomelo) by the kitchen table. Hope to come back with my family someday.

It's a very unique place to stay and you're truly surrounded by nature. At night the frogs and insects are loud and it rained one night we were there and that was very loud! It would have been nice to have a fan in the tent since it was very hot on our first night. Bathrooms, showers, and the kitchen were fairly close but it was a bit of a walk every time you need to go. We couldn't figure out where the main house or place where staff were was so we were mainly alone during our stay. The video they sent us on how to find our tent was helpful and necessary. It would also be helpful to provide a wheelbarrow or cart to help get luggage from the car to the tents. It is a bit of a walk carrying everything. Overall we enjoyed it as an adventure but we're glad it was only 2 nights.

Peaceful and quiet, a great place to unplug and detach from the modern world and all its amenities. The only down side is the outdoor shower. Basically you have to shower early while the sun is still out. We came back late to our cottage and opted to shower in the morning.

This property is great for a camping retreat. quiet and out of the way. It looks like it does not get much use, though, For example, the path to our tent was overgrown with thigh-high weeds; there was no trash can in the tent, and only rusty rack to hold clean towels and hang clothes. It looks like the owners put a lot of effort into building the retreat space but have stayed on top of keeping it up. It is lovely if you are a camper complete with compost tolet outhouse and outdoor shower, but ask all the questions you can so you are not surprised by missing amenities.

An Overpriced, New Experience

Pro: Kind staff. Falling asleep hearing all the pleasant sounds of the jungle. Con: 4-inch long spiders and lizards as bedfellows. The stay would've made sense if the cleaning fee, about half of the total amount charged, wasn't there.

BEAUTIFUL!!! We decided on a last minute trip to the Big Island. We didnt really want to stay at a resort. So glad we came across Gingerhilll Farm Retreat. We stayed in Monkey Tree tent. The bed was so comfortable. Probably the best bed ive ever slept in besides our home one. We live on a farm so this place was a littler more noisy for us. Lots of frogs going off and a very abnoxious rooster that i feel needs to go in a stew pot.or be moved away from all the cabins. He starts crowing around 2am. Other then that the place was amazing. If your afraid of the dark and big spiders(harmless) this place is not for you. But if you want something off the wall and not a resort or you want a trip thats not going to hurt the pocket book i highly recommend Gingerhill Farm Retreat. Oh we are not a young couple. In our 50's and this was one of the better trips we have been on. So laid back.
