    This place is the perfect balance between nature and comfort. Our room was beautiful and surrounded by local trees, the bathroom and kitchen feel luxurious and outdoorsy at the same time. It is a really wonderful place to spend your time on Hawaii. Ryan is the most welcoming host, always happy to share the fruits he's growing in the garden. If you're looking for a beautiful, relaxing and peaceful place to stay, this is it. Waking up to the birds singing in the morning is a treat too

    We had a very peaceful and refreshing stay at Mana Loli Sanctuary. Ryan and Yasmin were so kind and friendly - we felt as if we were staying on a friend's property rather than a booking. We had lots of fun roaming the grounds and picking fruit from the trees for breakfast! The outdoor shower is seriously amazing - it's so nice to watch vivid green plants and a blue sky while feeling the gentle breeze under a strong and hot shower. That leads me to the attention to detail here - gorgeous rooms everywhere. Well appointed kitchens, indoor and outdoor. Bidets on all the toilets. The bed was luxurious. Above all, very clean. We appreciated that guests had to remove their shoes inside. Ryan & Yasmin, we had so much fun! Thanks for a great day and the experience of chopping down a banana tree! Looking forward to coming back!

    We stayed at Ryan’s place for 9 days and I think part of my soul resides there now. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and nurturing. The home is comfortable and welcoming. And most of all the hosts are delightful! We loved forming connections with them and all of the other guests that came through during our stay. It was such an amazing place we even spent a few days of our trip just hanging out at the property, harvesting fruits, feeding the ducks, doing yoga, and cooking. If you visit, check out the veggie trellis that we helped Ryan build! I honestly can’t recommend this place enough if you’re looking for a tranquil retreat and a unique Hawaiian experience.

    Mana Loli Sanctuary in is an absolute gem, and hosts Yasmin and Ryan go above and beyond to ensure that your stay is nothing short of magical. The rooms are super clean and comfortable, the mutual areas are cozy and make you feel right at home :) We appreciated Yasmin touring us around their beautiful tropical property, teaching us about the various produce they are growing on their land. Ryan's wisdom shines through in inspiring stories that add a special touch to your experience. This isn't just a stay; it's a journey guided by the warmth and thoughtfulness of two incredible hosts. If you crave a retreat where personal connections and nature intertwine, look no further than this hidden sanctuary on the Big Island.

    I 10/10 recommend Mana Loli Sanctuary! The space is so beautiful and thoughtfully designed and the vibes are immaculate. I felt like I was living in a magazine! The bed sheets are everything and I loved getting to feed the ducks and walk the land. The aina there is so sacred, special and healing. I also enjoyed and appreciated the fact there is a trampoline and tire swings. So much fun! And I loved the community aspect of this space and enjoyed meeting and interacting with the other guests and becoming friends. Ryan is the best host and made my stay so special. So grateful for him and his magical place. Can’t wait to stay here again!! So grateful the universe guided me here and for all the healing I received during my stay. 🙏🏻 Thank you again for everything!! 💞

    I had such a magical time at the Mana Loli Sanctuary! Ryan was such a kind and thoughtful host, he took time to show us around and get to know us and really made us feel at home down to sharing a curry dinner that he made. On the last day we all planted sunflowers and marigolds in the butterfly garden and I felt even more connected to the aina by getting some dirt under my nails. Definitely a highlight of my trip and cannot wait to come back again someday. Mahalo nui!!!

    This was such a lovely respite. Yasmin and Ryan were so kind and relaxed. The space was beautiful, and I slept like a baby every night. Wish I could stay longer!

    My English is too bad to Express the greatness of that place. If you look for a quiet place to refill your battery before going back to the wilderness (or not) this is the place. It is comfy and soft like a pillow. It's beautiful, clean and there is even a great kitchen full of spices ready for you to cook. Ryan, Aries his dog and the ducks gang are all welcoming funny and attentive ( maybe not the ducks, they only want you to throw some food at them). It was a delightful experience so don't hesitate for an instant ! Thanks Ryan !!
