Barbra and the rest of the staff are very friendly. They gave great suggestions of things to do and places to eat while on the island. The room was clean and beautiful. If you like being surrounded by nature, this is a great spot.

Smoke alarms non-functional. Otherwise it was out of the ordinary experience, but we enjoyed the difference. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. Recommended for those who like experiences different from the ordinary. Also best for people who like nature and animals.

Property was in a quiet, rural area in a beautiful jungle like setting. Host conveyed a relaxed atmosphere within a rustic bed and breakfast environment. Worried lack of air conditioning would be a problem, but the cool ocean air combined with chirping of insects and birds had me asleep withing minutes each night.

This was an amazing tropical paradise! Tropical open air rooms with fabulous decor and healing mediative areas to enjoy the tranquility in Captain Cook. Less than 2 miles from the popular snorkeling spot "Two Step" and the historical monument known as "Place of Refuge". The breakfast was excellent with multiple fruits, breads, oatmeal, nut butters, chia and yogurt, and huge selection of local jams. Staff was helpful - especially Ausin who showed us the fruit trees all over the grounds including the labyrinth and yoga area. we will definitely be staying again; we stayed in the writers Studio- truly offered all the comforts of home.

Great Get Away from the Noise Stay

Dragonfly ranch is incredible. Staying here is like staying in a tree house mansion. The staff was incredible and Barbara was so nice. The place is an artistic marvel. Don’t stay here if you’re looking for a resort. But if you’re looking to get away from all the hustle and bustle and enjoy the Big Island, you can’t find better.

Wonderful spot

I loved how authentic this country location is. That said, if you are a person that cannot survive w o AC or TV it may not be for you. For myself, I loved the chance to get away from all the (noise) of the outside world and truly experience the lovely grounds of this fabulous location. Rooms are screened in so all the wondeeful sights and sounds of nature may be experienced. There are fans if you need and our room had a lovely outdoor shower. It also had a table where you could take in the sunset and ocean views. Perfect for people that appreciate nature and its beauty. Staff was very nice and friendly. Amazing coffee and fresh fruit each morning.

Expensive for what you get. Camping with a roof. Dolphin room closes with only a small latch for security. Random door that leads to another room and locks from the otherside. Outdoor shower and bathroom. Breakfast was great. Cheaper than a resort but not worth the savings.

Jocelyn

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
I think the very mixed reviews give a good sense of the place. The natural setting with the sunset views is very special. But, it is one step above tree house camping, and it isn’t glamping because it definitely isn’t glamorous. There are junked vehicles and a ton of clutter all over the property. Nothing feels super clean. Our room was cool but it is only screened in. As noted most showers are outdoors. Many of the folks working there are “interns” getting a free bed but not being paid, but there is a $50 cash turnover fee (which Expedia does show in the fine print). I thought the stay was a cool experience but that the cost was high given how very rustic it is. If you are comfortable staying with eccentric relatives and going with the flow this is an alternative to a boring motel.

Loved the sounds of nature through the night, great vegan breakfast options and a fantastic view from the dining area. The only downsides were that local shops close really early if you are trying to pick up food if arriving after 8pm and we were woken by someone (possibly staff) having a long, loud telephone conversation at 4am. Our bathroom was semi outdoors and the bed was pretty lumpy. Not for those looking for luxury but it suited us fine for our short stay.
