What Our Patients Say About Us

I highly recommend this program to anyone who is ready to change their life for the better

My month at Hawaii Island Recovery has been amazing. The therapists and staff are fantastic and have helped me overcome traumas I have been holding onto for 13 + years. They have taught me a large variety of skills to manage my anxiety and made my detox as comfortable as possible.

From the Excellent Therapist to the Comfortable Home

I had previously been to two different rehab centers, and none of them compared to the experience and help I received while staying at Hawaii Island Recovery. From the excellent therapist to the comfortable home. You can tell they want to help you, and it’s not all about the money. Jimmy and the administrative staff work hard to give you the best possible treatment while still treating you like an average person. The therapist all have different styles for different people that don’t sound so scripted, making sessions feel more like everyday conversations than question after question about life. The Residential staff was terrific. They were always there to talk, and if they had a bad day, you were never able to tell because they put us before them. Nicole may be the most caring person on earth, and Kevin the biggest heart of anyone I’ve met. Lastly, the chef was excellent. She makes sure you are well fed and will accommodate what you want and not stick to the same menu. All in all, I’m glad I came to HIR and would recommend it to anybody serious about their recovery.

I have used HIR for about three years now …sending clients from the Seattle area and I have had the most fabulous feedback from affected family members and the individual themselves. Their team is extraordinary at communication and individualized treatment!

Jimmy, the owner, is one of the BEST possible humans you will ever meet. His true spirit of Aloha is deeply embedded within in. That coupled with extensive recovery knowledge makes him an amazing leader. Having Jimmy lead the way, along with the rest of the staff guarantees a premier experience. I'm sure not if any of the negative reviews were from the previous owner, or simply unrealistic expectations of being in treatment in general, but I can guarantee you will not find a better treatment program who is genuine, caring, and healthy with regard to their own life balance and ability to teach it to their patients. You will leave Hawaii Island Recovery a better person guaranteed. It is the only program I can feel 100% confident in recommending to anyone for themselves or their loved ones.

Hawaii Island Recovery is meant to help your loved one find recovery. The staff here is simply amazing, from the front line staff up to the owner. I have worked with this program for about 5 years and trust me when I say that the individuals that go through this program get the treatment that they need but also deserve. The compassion and structure is second to none.
