Words cannot even describe the magic of this beautiful stay! It is definitely off the beaten path, but therein lies the allure of Eco Hale. If you are looking for a touristy, high trafficked resort this may not be the place for you. Eco Hale is for adventurers, romantics, and those who appreciate the natural world. It is set back into the rainforest about 20ish minutes from town. It is intimate, eclectic and full of life. You will experience being serenaded by chirping frogs in the evening and waking to bird song in the morning as well as the pitter patter of rain showers of the roof. This truly is an experience of a lifetime. Kaeo and Karl are amazing hosts as well. Not only were they always quick to respond, they also made us feel like we were locals during our stay. They shared with us some of there favorite things to do and we often came back from a day of exploring to find a sweet homemade treat or hand written note waiting for us. To some it all up, this is a magical little haven that few get the opportunity to experience in their lifetime. We highly recommend it!
