We were met by Judy and Michael when we arrived and they had delicious banana bread, fresh bananas and a papaya which we enjoyed for our breakfasts. They had all the amenities needed to sleep well, shower, cook/pack lunches, wonderful beach amenities, and some delicious restaurant recommendations. Judy and Mike are so very kind and caring and always available when we had any questions.We would love to stay again!!Mahalo!

We had a great time, and the hosts were super warm and welcoming. They have a ton of beach gear to borrow, and they made us delicious banana bread! Minutes away from beaches and downtown Kona.

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.

Enjoyed the garden, the intimacy, the ability to cook despite the semblance of a simple bedroom, the peaceful mood of the neighborhood, the kindness and warm welcome of the host.

Judy and Michael were so friendly, welcoming, and quick to accommodate our needs. They provided snorkeling equipment, beach chairs, etc that was so helpful!

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!

We enjoyed our stay in this happy place! The accommodations were clean, there was fresh fruit in a bowl and a mini-loaf of banana bread in the fridge waiting for us upon arrival. Judy and Michael gave us all the private space we needed but were also helpful when we had questions. There was all sorts of beach equipment available to us, a carport for covered parking, and a sitting area just outside our door for morning coffee and birdwatching. We accidentally left some expensive chocolate covered macadamia nuts in the fridge. I contacted Micheal and he sent them to us immediately. That's going above and beyond!

Michael and Judy are wonderful hosts, very accommodating and responsive to every need. Very nice property and well situated. The efficiency has everything you will need and is quiet and by itself, overlooking a very nice garden. We highly recommend it!

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!

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.
