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.

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.

While it can be great for some people, it was not the most suitable for me and my wife. I booked the bamboo canopy. What's great: - Parking is free. - Greenery is great and refreshing. - Dining room and views from it are great. - Great host - They provide free towels, shampoos, cooking materials, free coffee in the dining area, cookware and silverware to use. Issues for us: - Light was too dim for the room, not bright enough even in the day. - The shared restrooms were too remote. They have compost bathroom which means no use of water. Not very convenient. Shower was also not too great cause of no door, only covered by curtains. - Too many insects, geckos everywhere and some spiders. - Taking luggage from car to the room was very hard and far, had to go through all the grass. - The sounds of insects at night is too loud. - Spotty wifi and network. I think this is best for people who are staying 1 or 2 nights with small bags and are well prepared. If you decide to stay here, here's a few tips: - Don't bring big luggage. - Bring some bright lights for room. - Bring bug body spray and anti-itch cream.

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.

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.

Ginger Hills is a lovely little place in close proximity to a lot of awesome things to do. I think they offer a good variety of lodging options and they've got a great staff comprised of legitimately vibrant and kind individuals. If you want to stay somewhere that's close to nature, you really cannot go wrong.
