The grounds were lush and the view was spectacular. The fresh fruit provided for free was delicious. The pool and hot tub were enjoyable and rarely crowded. The staff was friendly and welcoming.

Nothing could have been better.

My husband and I had a comfortable stay at Banyan Tree, a special Vegan Retreat center. The garden bungalows provided a peaceful sleep with the fresh air and sounds of birds. The 2 Bedroom apartment was spacious and homelike, with a full kitchen and outdoor balcony for breakfast. The grounds were lovely, with a hot tub for relaxation. The staff was amazing and the location was ideal for a peaceful retreat.

Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

Peaceful and authentic with great ocean/coastal views! We got the Kahuna Room last minute, thanks to Rae's kindness. The hot tub with ocean views was amazing and the sanctuary was perfect for meditation. Benjamin, the owner, serenaded us with his guitar and we even explored the lava flow cave for deep meditation. The shared bathroom was always available and everything was clean. The open-air kitchen and living space with stunning views were a highlight. The free fresh fruits and nuts were a delightful surprise. The location was convenient and the peacefulness of the surroundings made for a restful night's sleep.

Clean facilities, spotless room and bathroom, beautiful pool and gardens, well-appointed open-air kitchen, peaceful location.

I recently stayed at a beautiful retreat in Kona and had such a peaceful and rejuvenating experience. The property was surrounded by lush greenery and the tranquility was truly amazing. The rooms and amenities were perfect, and I loved waking up to the sounds of birds singing. The communal kitchen had everything I needed, and the salt water pool and hot tub were so refreshing.

I must mention that the property was a bit isolated, and it was a long drive to get to any nearby attractions or grocery stores. Also, as a non-vegan, the vegan-only dining options were a bit challenging for me.

Beautiful location, refreshing pool, ample parking, quiet and tucked away, nice room with mini-fridge, private lanai.

Everything was spot on.

We loved the peaceful and secluded ambience of the Banyan Tree Sanctuary. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, and the property had a friendly atmosphere. The pool was refreshing and the room was comfortable with its own mini-fridge and bathroom. The private lanai provided separate access to the pool area. We enjoyed picking fresh fruit from the property and the location was conveniently accessible by car.

We felt well taken care of and had no complaints at all.

Lovely room, comfy bed. Beautiful property with lots of greenery, pool, and cool common areas. Amazing grounds, enjoyable hot tub. Friendly atmosphere with kind people. Quiet location outside of town, peaceful getaway. Informed about vegan living. Stunning, restful, bursting with wildlife and fresh produce. Will return with family.

This hotel is a hidden gem for nature lovers. Tucked away in a beautiful fruit tree orchard and garden, it offers a tranquil setting that allows for a peaceful and rejuvenating stay. The location of the hotel ensures a great night's sleep, with its hilly terrain providing a pleasant temperature.

All was simply perfect!

Spacious grounds. Gracious hosts. Large bathroom. Well-equipped kitchen. Quiet solitude. Lovely gardens. Delicious organic fruit. Amazing staff.

None.

The best aspects of my stay were the stunning views and the incredibly friendly staff. They went above and beyond to help me and even upgraded my room for a special occasion. The grounds were also amazing, creating a relaxed and wonderful atmosphere. The room and balcony were lovely, providing the perfect space to enjoy the surroundings.

Couldn't find any faults at all.

The property was beautiful, surrounded by nature and with stunning views. We enjoyed the fresh fruit that was available and the complimentary yoga lessons. The location was great, with easy access to nearby attractions. The staff was courteous and always willing to help in any way.

Our room was quite noisy due to neighbors and some aspects of the room were outdated. Given the high price of the room, we expected a more modern and renovated space.

Amazing facilities, clean and well-maintained. Spacious room with a spotless bathroom. Beautiful pool and gardens, perfect for relaxation. Well-appointed open-air kitchen. Great location away from the busy tourist scene, but still close to dining, beaches, and attractions.

Communal kitchen with only vegan cooking allowed, had to drive miles for traditional meals. Bathroom located down the hall.

We loved our time at the Banyan Tree Sanctuary Guest House! The peacefulness of the area and the breathtaking ocean/coastal views were absolutely amazing. We were warmly welcomed by the host and enjoyed the free fruit collected from the grounds. The clean and open-air kitchen with great views was a bonus. we had a wonderful and authentic experience here.

The property and room were a bit dated, but still clean. The shared bathroom was a slight inconvenience, but it was always available when we needed it.

The secluded location of this budget retreat offers peace and tranquility, allowing guests to truly unwind and connect with nature. With acres of land and stunning views, it creates a tropical paradise. The communal kitchen is well-appointed and perfect for preparing meals after a day of adventuring. The friendly and helpful staff goes above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay, providing a wealth of knowledge about things to do in the area.

One small downside is that the site is vegan, which may require guests to adjust their grocery shopping and dining plans accordingly.
