Just lovely and peaceful on the fruit farm. I’d stay again anytime. The views are great too. The place was well equipped for cooking etc and very chill.

The location provided a spectacular view beyong the green pasture and trees out to the Pacific Ocean and passiing vessels. It was quiet, the unit was well appointed, and the hosts were attentive and welcoming without ever being intrusive.

Thank you so much! We love it when guests take time to enjoy the view! Safe travels!
Madeleine was a superb host, very responsive and friendly. Hululi Farm is a special place, calm and peaceful. The lanai with its spectacular views was our favorite.
The hosts are great and the accommodations are truly amazing! If you like staying off the beaten path then this is for you. Private, well maintained, central to roads for travel around the island, and numerous fresh, fantastic tasting organic fruit:). Thus is my second time staying and would most certainly return if Hawaii calls again.
This was a great place to stay to enjoy the Hilo side of the Big Island. Sitting on the patio enjoying morning coffee or an evening meal were the favorite moments of our stay. The owners are kind and giving hosts and proud to share the bounties of their farm.

Thank you so much! We're delighted you enjoyed the farm and got to taste some of the lychee too!
Everything was amazing! Ginger cottage was adorable and perfect for our family of 4, everyone was extremely kind and it was wonderful to be able to rome around the property. My 4 yr old loved runing down to the longan orchard everyday to eat until he was sticky. We couldn't have asked for a nicer place or kinder hosts!

Thank you so much! It’s always fun to introduce kids to a new fruit!
This was one of the best places we’ve stayed at. Madeline is an amazing host but really if you’re looking for a quiet, beautiful place to enjoy, this is the place. Views in the morning were spectacular. Unbelievably quiet (minus the frogs). Make sure to follow the directions provided and you’ll have no hard time finding the place. If we ever make it back to the big island we will definitely be staying there again!! Thank you Madeline and family for the great stay!

We loved having you guys! Come again next time you need a getaway!
Oh my goodness, what a slice of heaven this place is! Hospitable and gracious owners, well appointed and meticulously kept cottage. We had a great stay!
Off the beaten path but able to readily access the sites of Hilo, Volcanoes NP, Puna and the Hamakua Coast. If you want to enjoy a little bit of rural Hawaii, this is a great place to stay.
My wife and I couldn't have been more happy with the hosts and the property. Everything was very well kept and the farm has some of the best sunrises we've seen. Would highly recommend!
