Review by Coral Vallente
The web site advertises a much deeper healing experience than was provided. Not worth the money spent. The staff was caring and genuine in their compassion. However the quality of addiction care was substandard. The cost for my insurance was $49,200 for 30 days. The treatment provided was not worth a fraction of that. They provided 2 hours a week of one-on-one therapy & one 2 hr group therapy session per week. The rest of the time was spent sitting around doing absolutely nothing but going to AA/NA meetings with no deep work in the area of addiction. There was a little holistic care was provided which was nice and the food provided was healthy & well balanced.

HIR has a deeply committed, genuine staff that provides a safe space to struggle through rehabilitation. There are many modalities offered to help heal the many issues that revolve around addiction. The organization feels well managed, professional and receptive to patient engagement. The only minus is that this program is heavily reliant on AA meetings and the AA program.

What an eye opening experience. Hawaii Island Recovery gave me the tools to re-discover myself, free from substance abuse. It is a true 12 step program with a focus on both group and individual therapy, while simultaneously providing clients the opportunity to experience the outdoors and unconventional therapy such as equine and dolphin therapy. For me it was a necessary process in my steps to recovery. Being so close to the outdoors yet never far from people who cared greatly about me and my recovery was a unique experience for which I am grateful. Anyone considering treatment options in an unconventional setting should consider this as an option.

I'm leaving a review as someone who knows the founder of this program in the professional capacity. I can vouch for the fact that people who started and operate this program come from a place of integrity, compassion and empathy. There is no doubt in professionalism, ethics and exceptional level of dedication. As someone who runs a holistic addiction rehabilitation program, I trust the owners and management of this program to make referrals and to recommend this program to my clients and their families. Please don't hesitate to contact me directly, if you would like to verify that I'm a real person and this opinion is my independent conclusion. Warmly, Danesh Oleshko, LLM

I would encourage those looking into a treatment program for a family member to consider HIR. Our 24 year old was struggle with alcohol and it was tearing our family apart. Jimmy was such a great support system and continues to be a huge piece of our sonʻs journey. This was not easy for our son or for us as a family, however I can say that HIR saved our sonʻs life. I can not begin to say enough good things, but he understand that this is a lifelong endeavor. Again, please know that there is help our there and HIR without a doubt is worth the time to check out.
