Wonderfully rustic and submerged in the jungle away from hotels and crowds.

The farm and grounds were amazing. Plants and birds and frogs everywhere. It was beautiful!

7.0 / 10.0

Sweet basic stay in nature

It's a sweet place in a remote location, which is nice to get away from it all if that's what you're looking for. If you don't have a car, or don't like to see the occasional spider, frog etc, this is not your place. Note its not a farm, there are no animals and the view on the ocean is limited due to the plants.

A bit more attention could have been paid to details; especially the kitchen area (e.g. we had some rotten bananas lying around upon arrival, only two spoons, one bowl, open waste bins that attract insects etc). There was no light in the eco-toilet so we had to walk around with our phone lights. We also found the amount of texting and emailing from the host (multiple times a day via different channels) a bit overwhelming.

good place with no security

quiet retreat

Toxic environment that allows a toxic person to damage my property, no security cameras, no one on sight to answer questions in person, car broken into and no one to offer solutions!

Peaceful stay in nature

It was secluded so you weren’t in the middle of the hustle and bustle and very peaceful but you were also close to food/ coffee options. Stayed in the Sunset Suite it was very clean and nice but also kept you in touch with the outdoors. Property was always very responsive to any questions we had along the way.

Relaxing stay in a rural yet centric location.

This property deserves better than the 8.x rating it currently has. Wonderfully located in a tropical garden, with plants, animals and fruit trees, it is truly relaxing. You will hear nothing else than animal sounds during the night (of course, mainly the ubiquitous coqui frogs who are everywhere on the island). The service is great - Silvia makes sure the guests have everything they need.

Of course, you have to understand that you are not getting a 5 star JW Marriott experience. This is a rural experience, close enough to some of the sightseeing highlights. In our cottage, you had to walk down an outside stair to reach the outdoor shower. It is a simple place to unwind and relax. If you look for that, this is the right place to be.

Gingerhill Farm Retreat is a stunningly beautiful place with friendly and interesting people!

The farm was gorgeous and the cottage charming and comfortable. The location was great, outside of touristy Kona and close to fantastic snorkeling.

Not a thing, we totally enjoyed our stay!

True nature enclave to stay and truly relax. Unique experience to return in the future.

Unique place for us to stay which gave us fantastic experience to hide within the nature and let us to relax after some time spent in Honolulu. Enclave. No close neighbors. Only sleeping room with walls, other parts of facility (kitchen, toilet, shower) opened to the nature. Early morning and evening birds and night singing of the frogs could be too noisy for some people but this is the “price” of being so close to the nature. A place which we definitely consider to return in the future!

Unsolved problems with Wi-Fi. Despite open space and lack of close neighbors I couldn’t relax more with smoking a pipe in armchair. But I respect that.

Very good

Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, rooms were very comfortable and cozy with a great ocean view.

Didn't bother me much, but for those who aren't very comfortable around animals, maybe not the best fit for you.

comfortable stay in little jungle paradise

the cabins are located in a mini jungle with beautiful trees and plants, that was for me the highlight! very peaceful out there and with a car not too far from anything really… there’s a terrace outside the room where your private kitchen is and you have everything you need including fresh coffee, fresh eggs, filtered water and all cooking appliances you need. you have beach towels, beach chairs, sun umbrella at your disposal! there’s a large car park, they encourage composting and recycling! everything was really clean

lack of contact with owner, only by message. when I travel to such places I like to hear people story! the place encourages self checkin so you do miss on that human exchange. that’s very personal though

was great for a secluded area

nice secluded area, loved the wildlife especially the chickens!!! the out house was dark more nicer then expected.

would be nice having a small light trail to guide us at night to the cabin

too expensive for what it is, very loud frogs at night and very humid. not really clean

fresh climate and surrounded by nature

extremely humid, clothes smelled bad for the rest of the holiday, no facilities to unpack, suitcases on the floor. Due to extreme loud frog sounds at night and just mosquito nets as windows, we had 3 terrible nights with lack of sleep, even earplugs did not help. we left the place even with still 2 nights to go which were mot refundable. Disappointing experience for the price that we paid: 850$. if you need to use the toilet at night you need to go in the garden with a flashlight, my girlfriend was too scared to go alone

A wonderful retreat away from mainstream tourism.

We had a nice cabin in a wonderful lush green environment, away from the touristic jumble, but still close to all attractions. We found this a charming alternative to the soulless hotel complexes at the coast. You shouldn't go there with a full-service mentality, but if you are open-minded and willing to adapt, it's a wonderful experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. You could tell that they were understaffed in the aftermath of the pandemic. So we wish Gingerhill all the best for the future and hope that they will be back to full operation soon again.

PEACEFUL BLISS-an amazing place to unwind, relax, and recharge

We loved EVERYTHING! Gorgeous peaceful property tucked away from the crowds yet convenient for island explorations. Our family stayed in the Sunset Suite and the glamping tent - SO. MUCH. FUN. and so comfortable! The privacy, the symphony of nature, amazing views, abundant fresh fruit and farm to table meals, combined with the overall positive, healthy vibe was so relaxing and made us want to move in permanently! Such a wonderful opportunity to experience the real Hawaiian life, we appreciated escaping the typical generic hotel experience and cherish our memories-what an amazing lifestyle! Thank you for opening your farm to us!

No more retreats for us

After one night we decided to leave and thankfully this was not a problem for them. We simply were charged the rate for one night plus all the extra cleaning fees instead of paying for 7. The one night cost us about 200 $, though, which was way too much. A short encounter with the resident artist and the view if the garden were quite delightful.

There was no way to air the bathroom and therefore mildew had developed in certain corners close to the shower. The room smelled damp and there was practically no space for our luggage. We did not feel welcome at all. Their homepage suggested the use of far more space like living room or kitchen, which was not included, at least not without extra costs.

Natural paradise conveniently locate in the coffee belt along mamalahoa hwy.

Morning sunrise view of ocean, outdoor shower, privacy, birds, organic orchard and farm, centrally located. We got to meet Mayumi Oda and look at her studio and art.

Et fantastisk sted som gir en følelse av å være i ett med naturen

Stedet har en fantastisk beliggenhet med små hytter omgitt av store trær og med ubeskrivelig vakker utsikt over havet. Solnedgangen fra terrassen utenfor felleskjøkkenet vil jeg huske resten av livet. Når mørket senker seg kommer tropelydene summende fra naturen rundt hyttene. Selve hytta var enkel med en nydelig seng som ga med en følelse av å være i ett med naturen. Hit vil jeg gjerne komme tilbake!

Nära naturen boende med varmt välkomnande

Mycket trevlig värd. Känns bra att bo på ekologisk gård. Nära naturen upplevelse. Fantastisk stjärnhimmel. Härligt att det växte fruktträd utanför.

Fanns inte varmvatten i duschen. Väldigt dyrt för så enkel standard.
