perfect base for exploring big island's natural beauty

I loved the peace and tranquility of the surroundings and enjoyed walking among the beautiful tropical paradise filled with fruit trees, which made the whole experience feel special and refreshing during my 5-night stay in the Deluxe King Suite, perfect for a solo traveler who's keen on exploring the area. The only downside was that the place could be quite dark at night, especially along the steep driveway, but overall, it was a wonderful facility.

The lush grounds offered a tranquil retreat with stunning views, enhanced by the delicious fresh fruit available. The saltwater pool and hot tub provided a perfect way to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. However, the communal areas could get crowded at times, making it difficult to find quiet moments. Limited privacy during busy periods was noticeable, especially in shared spaces. Overall, a peaceful yet social experience.

The lush gardens and tranquil grounds are a delight, offering breathtaking views that reminded me of a serene painting. The pure Hawaiian atmosphere and gentle sounds of nature created a perfect escape for relaxation.

More seating options by the pool would be nice.

An idyllic retreat nestled in nature

We had an incredible stay, enjoying the lush grounds and the exceptional quality of fresh fruits available. The hot tub provided stunning ocean views, and the peaceful atmosphere was perfect for relaxation. Participating in yoga and connecting with fellow guests in the communal kitchen made our experience even more special. However, the shared bathroom set-up could be slightly inconvenient during peak times.

The tranquil grounds of Banyan Tree Sanctuary Guest House were beautifully landscaped, with lush gardens and stunning views that provided a peaceful retreat. The yoga yurt was a particular highlight, offering a serene space for morning meditation.

A few more seating options would be helpful.

We recently enjoyed a fantastic family getaway here, soaking up the peaceful vibes and stunning coastal views. Our dog loved the large, open yard to play in, and we cherished the time spent stargazing at night by the pool. The staff made us feel right at home, ensuring we had everything needed for a relaxed stay.

My kids wished there were more kid-friendly activities available.

The view from the patio was breathtaking, and I loved soaking in the pool while surrounded by the beautiful gardens. The fresh fruit right from the property was such a delightful treat. I’d definitely return for that relaxing vibe!

beautiful property but had some drawbacks

The spacious room we stayed in offered a lovely view of the surrounding nature. Fresh fruit waiting for us upon arrival was a nice touch that added to the welcoming atmosphere.

The tranquility of the property was occasionally interrupted by road noise.
