Kohala Historical Sites State Monument

Our stay at Gingerhill Farm in Hawaii was a truly unique experience and the perfect retreat. If you're looking for something comfortable and memorable outside of the traditional resort stay, this is it. The outdoor shower and open-air kitchen were absolute highlights—they made us feel immersed in the beautiful surroundings while still having everything we needed. The property is filled with lush gardens, blooming ginger, and vibrant tropical plants that create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. We also loved spotting the friendly geckos throughout the property, which added to the authentic island experience. A wonderful bonus was discovering the beautiful artwork by Mayumi Oda displayed throughout the property. Her vibrant, nature-inspired prints complemented the peaceful setting perfectly and added another layer of inspiration to our stay. If you appreciate nature, tranquility, and a one-of-a-kind place to stay, Gingerhill Farm is a wonderful choice!

I was unaware that this property was made up of individual condos rented out. The location was great, but getting help for issues with the room wasn't easy as the owners of my unit weren't on site. The first phone number I was given didn't work but I was finally able to resolve some issues with the owner. There was no ice machine on site and it had the tiniest kitchen I've ever seen. That being said, the location was great, we have a beautiful lanai overlooking the beach and that was great. The pool area was nice and the grounds were lush. We were able to arrange a later check out to accommodate morning snorkeling and that was appreciated. All in all, the stay was a good one, but there were areas that good be improved with better communication.

The cleaners had the condo immaculate. All appliances, counters, floors, bathrooms, etc were spotless. Sofa and chairs looked new… no stains or wear. The staff at check-in were very helpful! They had great suggestions for beaches and sea turtle viewing. Staff were non-intrusive, yet always available for questions as they worked to maintain the property. Pools and hot tubs were well maintained, warm, and appealed to multigenerational vacationers. I hope to return in the future!
