We stayed at Hale Koa studio for a whole and absolutely loved it! Ed and George emailed us ahead with accurate directions and warm welcome. They were out of town at the time of our visit. While we didn't meet in person, Ed and George managed to be wonderful hosts even across the ocean. They followed up with us via email several times to make sure that we found the place and made ourselves at home. The studio was just as described, but still surpassed our expectation by the quiet charm and the gorgeous panoramic view. The photos do not give it justice. We had a great experience and highly recommend Ed&George's place to anyone who would like to enjoy the big island away from crowds.
