If you're visiting the Big Island, Eco Hale is a great home base for exploring the island. We enjoyed many fun hikes and visited Volcanoes National Park. We loved returning to our quiet little home at the end of the day, listening to the sounds of the rain forest while relaxing on the porch. Kaeo & Karl's attention to detail is amazing. We let them know our interests (and dietary restrictions) in advance and Kaeo gave us fantastic recommendations. Highly recommend a stay at Eco Hale!
