This was unfortunately my second frustrating experience with Hale Ho'ōla. The first was in September 2022, when Suzanne left me hanging for three days before eventually telling me she couldn't accommodate a couples massage. I decided to give Hale Ho'ōla another chance this year. On September 1, I arranged a couples massage for September 15 to celebrate my wedding anniversary with my husband. Suzanne told me she had availability from 4-8pm, I selected 4pm, and provided my email address as requested. On the morning of our appointment, I realized I'd never received the confirmation email or any instructions, so at 9:54am I texted Suzanne to make sure we were still on for 4pm. She read my message but didn't respond. Around 2pm, as we were preparing for the 2+ hour drive from Kona, I followed up again. She read that message too, but again didn't respond. Suzanne finally called around 2:30pm, after we had already been driving for about 30 minutes. She explained that she'd been dealing with power outages over the previous few days, which I completely understand. However, she also admitted that she had forgotten to put our appointment on her schedule and couldn't see us until after 7pm. I asked whether the following day would work better for her. She said yes it would, but needed to confirm with her other therapist and would get back to me. She never did. I followed up again that evening, which she read without responding. It wasn't until around 4:30pm the following day that she finally texted to say she couldn't make it work. Mistakes and unexpected circumstances happen. What I find unacceptable is the repeated lack of communication. Had Suzanne responded to either of my messages, we never would have started a 2+ hour drive for an appointment that wasn't actually on her schedule. What makes this especially disappointing is that we had specifically planned this couples massage as part of our wedding anniversary celebration. Her lack of communication and organization threw a wrench into our plans and wasted precious vacation time that we can't get back. Instead of enjoying that time together, we spent it driving toward an appointment that didn't exist and then waiting around the following day to find out whether she could accommodate us. As a small business owner myself, I understand that running a business isn't easy. But communicating with customers and honoring confirmed arrangements -- or promptly taking responsibility when something goes wrong -- is basic professionalism.

She was so gracious and kind and helped us to still get our massages that day, which required moving another client. We were able to get back to back massages instead of a couples massage that I originally scheduled for the wrong day. This was so great of her because it would have really threw off our plans to come back the following day (and we made a trek up there on our scooter) and I just have to say again how much we appreciated that!! (and her client too!) Furthermore, she gave me a chakra reading at the end of my massage which was a surprise to me. And it was because I had expressed interest in getting the chakra meditation massage but we didn't have time that day. The chakra reading was my first time, and *surprisingly* on point. I say surprising more so in that it definitely made me a believer in chakra readings and overrode any skepticism. Peggy did something special for me and for us on our Hawai'i trip, and I'm so thankful we made the decision to get massages with her! We both got the Lomi lomi massage which was also wonderfully soothing and relaxing. We will definitely recommend anyone in the area to visit her and if we are in the area again, we will be returning as well. Aloha!
