I cannot say enough wonderful things about Merlin and her place. My mom and I were looking for a retreat and healing experience and we got even more than we could have imagined by staying with Merlin. She’s a wonderful host who offers so much more than just a place to sleep. The farm to table experience we had was an unforgettable experience and I highly recommend doing it while you’re there. We also did a morning meditation which was the perfect way to start our day. Merlin is a beautiful, kind soul and she just radiates the aloha spirit. If you’re looking for a real, down to earth, and rejuvenating experience while in Hawaii, definitely stay here. My mom
and I are already planning our trip back to visit! The place is about 25 minutes from the airport and downtown Hilo, but when you’re driving it, it absolutely doesn’t seem that far at all. The frogs sing at night, but it was a beautiful, relaxing sound that put me right to sleep.
