Very Good

Unique big island experience much akin glamping with wild life and caring spiritual staff. Off the beaten path is an understatement. Great fresh coconut.
We were so lucky to find this lovely place while the tsunami alert was in place. The people were so welcoming and helpful.
The setting is delightful and the sound of the birds is so peaceful.

Staying the the Hawaiian rainforest is a unique experience. I think the location is what trumped all my other needs and expectations of a quality stay.
We are given Cabin 1 and there was no lighting outside and the bathrooms were a 3 min walk away in the dark. I feel and hurt my knee trying to use the bathroom at night, this caused me alot of discomfort for the rest of my stay. This part of the island is wet, and rain is common. There is mud that makes the ground dangerous to walk on. I would not recommend this place due to safety concerns.
I had and amazing and peaceful time in Hawaiian sanctuary I like the area and location and very helpful and friendly staff ! Highly recommend this place
Haven’t stayed here for a few years, was pleasantly surprised by a warm personalized welcome and tour and easy registration. The property just so happened to have a fun dance and music event happening, made new friends!
So welcoming from day one. Beautiful property and we had a private cabin. My little daughter was amazed by all the property had to offer and wanted to come back early from our volcano adventures everyday.
