  • We are a couple with a young child, and spent two wonderful weeks at Hale O Pueo. The place was perfect for the family: a well appointed suite with lots of privacy. As soon as we arrived, we felt at home. The place was very clean, fresh and welcoming. There was everything we needed to enjoy both the indoors and the outdoors, from the nicely equipped kitchen to prepare our picnics & diners, to the beach gear ready to use. As well, we valued the peacefulness of the residence very much. After a long day of frolicking on the beach and touring, we really appreciated to come back to a restful home. Our son liked to be able to play in the garden, and we, as parents, enjoyed the tranquility and privacy of the house. Thanks Kalia, for being such a great host!

  • We returned from HaleOPueo 3 weeks ago and I can still feel the ocean breeze, see the spectacular stars at night from the outdoor shower and smell the fragrant flowers that Kalia so lovingly tends to. Ours was such a relaxing and memorable vacation- we will most definitely return to this paradise on the hill! Lisa, Abigail and Alexa Lafayette, CA.

  • Limerick to Hale O Pueo There once was a woman who knew 'twas time for big island for two. Good fortune would flow to guide her to go to sweet Hale Pueo! Not only is the hale sweet, "green" and perfectly clean, it offers a beautiful and expansive view, showers outside under the sky, moon, stars or sun, quiet nights, the cute and well-mannered gecko family (including my favorite we named "Three-feet") happy to accept an invitation to breakfast on the lanai, lovely kitchen and living spaces, and the fragrant plumeria and night blooming jasmine. ...plus lots of snorkel and beach accouterments! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Our time was perfectly relaxing, rejuvenative and fun!

  • The fond memories of our stay at Hale o Pueo in early June are staying with us and remind us of the serenity and beauty of this magic place on Hawaii's Kohala coast. Arriving weary from the Montana late winter doldrums, pale and in need of a little R&R, my husband and I felt we had arrived in Paradise. A haven of tranquility, a home away from home, near but not too close to tourist traps and mega hotels, Hale o Pueo soothes the soul and body. The solar power and the owners’ commitment to to help guests be ecologically responsible only add to the experience and sense of peacefulness. The cottage is thoughtfully equipped with all one needs for self-catering, beach time, or just hanging out on the deck/lanai overlooking the pastures and the sea, while watching little geckoes nibble on Papaya. The outside shower, which just has to get its own mention, is divine. The warm water and heated tile make it a most wonderful outdoors experience. We would return in an instant and recommend it highly.

  • Our stay at Hale O Pueo was incredible - beautiful views, peaceful setting, stunning beaches close by - the perfect place for a family holiday. Our children thoroughly enjoyed running around the gardens and feeding the gecko's. Kalia was wonderful, and we look forward to staying here again on our next visit to the Big Island.

  • We stayed here for ten days in May 2009, and it was probably the most magical and serene time I have ever had on the Big Island. It is very unusual to find a place so secluded and peaceful, yet so near the best beaches and hiking that the Island has to offer. The house itself is spacious, quiet, clean, and beautifully furnished; a pleasure to return to after a busy day. We will return, I'm sure.

  • We just got back from our first trip to The Big Island, and we spent the first 5 nights at Hale O Pueo. It really was the perfect place to stay - beautiful, quiet, solar powered and an outdoor shower too! The view is stunning (day or night) and Kalia, the owner, is very helpful. We can't wait to come back soon :)
