Garden Oasis

We loved staying at Hale Pama, this guest house is surrounded by gardens and feels very private even though the main house is on the same property. Charles was always helpful with our questions and it was a lovely place to relax at the end of the day. We even got to pick a pineapple for breakfast! It was wonderful. The location is convenient and near the highway but you will need a car to get around.
