Frommer's Review

Some may find the Dragonfly Ranch too rustic. But if you want to enjoy Hawaii's tropical outdoors and you're thrilled by the island's most unique architecture -- structures that bring the outdoors inside -- this may be the place for you. Cabins range from one room (with screens only, no drapes) to suites; you might describe the style as "early hippie." Breakfast includes healthy hot cereal such as amaranth, quinoa, and oatmeal with assorted toppings such as toasted pecans, sunflower seeds, walnuts, raisins, and golden flax seed; fresh homegrown organic fruit (like apple bananas and strawberry papayas); wheat-free granola and waffles; and sprouted grain bread. The location is ideal, with Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historic Park just down the road and five bays offering great swimming and diving just minutes away. The place itself, with free-standing cabins tucked away on 2 acres of fruit trees and exotic flowers, truly is a tropical fantasy.

Facilities:
Yoga studio and fitness room; watersports equipment rentals; activities desk; car-rental desk; massage; babysitting; laundry service
