We stayed at the Red Ginger Garden Studio 3 nights in February 2025. The studio is charming and well equipped and supplied. The back yard garden is beautiful and great place to start the day with a cup of Kona coffee and the sound of the birds. Michael and Judy were lovely hosts. Would love to come back again.

Gem near downtown Kona!
We loved our stay here for 3 nights! It’s very clean and comfortable and there are so many lovely touches - delicious banana bread, fresh fruit, snorkeling and beach equipment, etc. The location is perfect for going to downtown Kona. We will definitely be back here the next time we’re in Kona!

Perfect Getaway
This was my second stay here and it was great. The suite was peaceful, clean, and had great views of the backyard. Location was great close to the beach. Our hosts were amazing as usual as well. Would love to come again in the future.

Best place in Kona to stay!
Judy & Michael are the best hosts. Beautiful property. Safe and quite place to rest your head. Looking forward to our next stay there. Close drive to eating, beach and town. Place was clean and the homemade banana bread was amazing along with all the nice fruit. The two small dogs are very friendly. Felt at home.

Most relaxing.
Judy and Michael and their cute puppies were so very friendly and accommodating. Sometimes we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. It was also nice to visit with them. Our stay on the island was just more relaxing and carefree because of our stay in their home away from home.

Very cozy, pleasant and home-like stay. Michael and Judy are the amazing hosts. They have also provided all the gears which we need at the beach. Studio has all the facilities we need. Really loved staying at this place and would always prefer to come to the same cottage next time.

Home away from home
Michael and Judy were consummate hosts! The room was as pictured and came with home-y touches including towels, beach chairs, and bags for the beach. Additionally, they treated us like welcomed guests with fresh banana bread, sourdough, and fruits (including pineapples, avocados, papayas, and bananas!) from their yard. We had a lovely time chatting with them, while at the same time, being afforded privacy throughout our 5-night stay. It was the best of both worlds. We would 100% stay with them again when traveling back to the Big Island! Mahalo!

Wonderful experience
Judy and Michael are amazing host, our stay was exceptional. They had extra fruit to share and great suggestions for places to visit or stop by. These two are very humble and kind people. If you choose their property you will be pleasantly impressed.

Hidden gem in paradise
This adorable place was more than what we expected. We were welcomed so kindly by Judy, Michael, and the cutie dogs. We felt at home and was a place so clean, peaceful, and has all the extra necessities. We loved our homemade banana bread, fruits, and hearing the birds in the morning. The garden is beautiful. The house is conveniently located near restaurants, beaches, & shopping area. It is in a safe and quiet neighborhood. We wish we could have stayed longer for vacation but we are looking forward to come back again.

Excellent ohana house!
Judy and Michael are excellent and kind hosts who did everything they could to make our stay pleasant. They had beach and snorkel gear, fresh fruit from their backyard (bananas and mangos), and coffee and cold drinks available upon our arrival.
The ohana flat has outdoor chairs that look out on their beautiful and quiet backyard (great for morning coffee and evening cocktail).
While the space is not large, it is perfect for a couple, and well-situated between Kailua and Kealakekua. Very convenient!

While it had everything I needed and then some it was not as private as I had expected. Also be aware of the stairs you will need to go up and down every time you come/go.

My solo stay at Michael and Judy's studio for 9 days during the Ironman World Championship could not have been better. It was a perfect home base for an active week: from the private back yard with fruit trees and a peek-a-boo view of the ocean, to the fresh banana bread, comfortable bed, kitchen with all the necessities, and easy access by car to town. Michael and Judy provided help and ideas for exploring Hawai'i, and were kind and friendly hosts. I would stay again!

Judy and Michael are the best hosts! From the fresh fruit- oranges, figs, papaya!- to the bird-filled backyard, we felt like we were in our own sunny little paradise. It was so peaceful and welcoming. They gave great suggestions for beaches, coffee, and things-to-do. They basically said the backyard was ours, and it was so nice to sit outside- in February! - enjoying our coffee and homemade banana bread. This was our 1st trip to Hawaii and I'm so glad that we went to Kona- it is stunning, and Red Ginger House is a place we'd definitely want to return to. It's a great choice if you prefer a quieter experience away from the crowds and resorts. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

beautiful condo in the paradise
It was really great to stay there. The condo has all required things and has a beautiful garden. Your own small paradise in the paradise. We also liked the fruits out of the garden, we were allowed to pick and which got provided to us at the welcome.
And it is located a little outside of the life and traffic of the Ali'i, so it is silent and a good place to relax.
I would recommend it always to friends and would always book it again.
Thanks for the great stay!!!
