    We spent 2 wonderful nights at the Dragonfly. The bed and bedding were the best I've ever experienced. The Hiltons' beds are junk next to this place. After sleeping that comfortably we had a yummy breakfast with wonderful company. Then, the views, OMG...the sunset from the illuminarium was amazing. We will be returning for sure.

    Everyone loved the Dragonfly Ranch! The kids loved playing with the animals and Barbara and her crew took great care of us. This place is a real gem. it's like nothing else with the most beautiful setting you can imagine. It truly is a tropical paradise. Snorkeling just down the road is world class, it's like you are in Finding Nemo, so many fish and sea turtles too! I can't wait to go back!

    Very beautiful, otherworldish experience. You will not find many places like this. I had a wonderful 2 night unwinding which was enjoyed by both my body and spirit. Barbara does a great lomi lomi massage also.

    The Dragonfly Ranch is an unique setting that captures the essence of health, relaxation and self-care!! With the infamous Barbara Moore at the helm she is definitely a woman full of healthy expertise and is such a JOY to connect with. From the healthy coffee to the gorgeous garden-grown meals.. this place is definitely worth the stay and the experience!! I highly recommend staying here if YOU are looking for an exclusive getaway, where YOU love animals, love being seconds from the best snorkeling on the whole island and ready for a healthy extravaganza!
