We loved our time at Hale Makamae. We stayed April 27&28th,2012. The gardens are beautiful and since I love flowers, I took a lot of pictures. My husband was stationed in Germany so he really enjoyed visiting with John and Petra about that area.We appreciated all the info and directions they gave us about the area and attractions.

We loved this B&B. It felt like home and the breakfast was delicious. John and Petra are so nice. We loved the personalized map and guide instructions from John. We did every activity he recommended and felt much better with his specific details at hand. Thanks for a great stay!

I stayed in the downstairs studio, a lovely room. Everything was wonderful for me: comfortable accommodations, great breakfasts, tasteful furnishings, beautiful landscaping, and helpful advice. Relaxing visit to get away from the stateside drama in my life, with time to explore the area!

Breakfast excellent fresh fruit good variety from cereal to hot dishes. Very friendly explained local attractions from hiking, swimming, snorkeling, road trips,etc. They provided excellent maps to keep for your stay Can't wait to get back there. Stayed in the Lanai Suite.

The Lanai Suite was not merely a guest room, but rather a private suite with two spacious bedrooms, living and dining rooms, kitchen and private balcony. It was very clean, modern in appearance and well appointed, and... More

The breakfast is aboundend and delicious (we overate in the homemade banana pancakes) and the room was spotless (this is most definitly due to the German sense... More

My wife and I stayed at Garden Suite for 3 nights from 7Mar. It was the 1st time for us to visit B&B itself, so we were a little bit nervous. However, our worry was meaningless! The garden was beautiful and the room was so big & clean. In addition, Petra kindly guided many places to go. We enjoyed Pahoa... More
