Greetings from Belle's Cottage- Portland, OR Our groups came to celebrate our 10th year of existence. We are a supported living home, advocating and facilitating life for a woman living with autism. Belle had a great time in the lagoon. She loved the warm water, sparkling fish, and volcanic rocks. Our trip was escorted by the full moon. So we knew we'd have a lovely time. The many thoughtful amenities, i.e. laundry soap, towels, working appliances, books and DVDs were much appreciated. The Daily paper was great too! Mahalo!

This vacation home was spectacular! This was my 1st time to HI and also our 4 month old daughters and this home was a perfect resting spot for us as my husband took us on many adventures. The snorkeling and volcano were by far my favorite adventures. Your home was perfect and we will for sure be back to visit again soon (hopefully 6 months or sooner!).

Bonjour! I loved this place! There was the most amazing view from the lanai and I loved swimming with the fish. Watching the eat was super funny! I am really sad to be leaving but I hope to come back someday.... Even if I don't you can "Sara Hashman stayed here" when I am famous. And I swear, someday I WILL be famous.... So mahalo and merci for the wonderful time and even though those coqui frogs were incredibly annoying I loved the entire time I was here. We saw barracuda too, that was coolish. Soon to be famous, remember that! Oh also, I am sad I didn't get to see Autherena....

We all had a wonderful time here. The snorkeling was great, we did see 2 turtles in the champagne pond, the pond beyond the breakwater had the most colorful fish. The house pond was great too, baracuda and eels, it was just so neat. We all slept so great too, better than at home. Island life is so relaxing. Thanks again.

Muhammad, Absoulutely beautiful, we will never forget the amazing experience our holiday was. This is an amazing house. It was perfect just to be able to wake up in the morning, walk out on the deck and see the ocean. It was incredable to fall asleep to the crashing waves and know you could swim in the pools at anytime. The coral and fish are beautiful to see, and you are incredadly lucky to live on this great island. Thank you for sharing your home and hospitality with us. We really enjoyed our stay at the peaceful and perfect place. Mahalo for everything.

Quite an astonishing place. The crashing ocean waves, the island breezes, the tropical flora & fauna, the lagoons and ponds right outside the house. A sea turtle that floats into view once in a while, gracing her visitors with her presence. Wow. This place is as close to an actual paradise as I've ever experienced. The Big Island proved to be a perfect place for a family get together and this house suited us to a "T"! Aloha!

We had a wonderful time. The view was beautiful and the house was well equipt. Our grandchildren loved feeding the turtle and fish everyday! It was fun to swim and snorkle with the turtles that enter the pond every evening. We loved the Volcano Park even though it was raining. Kona wasn't worth the drive unless you go scuba diving. There was plenty to do around here without going to Kona. Thanks for sharing your home with us. Even our son-in-law loved snorkeling and he usually doesn't like water. Mahalo!

We had the most incredible stay in your little piece of Paradise. I had the most fun, with feeding arhturena her lettuce. Chances like this come once, or twice in a whole life time! We once saw 7 turtles when we went snorkeling one afternoon in Champagne Pond. Going to the Volcano Park was one of my favorite things that we did on our stay. I was always interested in the gods and goddesses. We also went to see the waterfalls. The scenery was incredible. One does not see the gloriious sights of nature in the budy streets of my Home Town, When we look at all the Good things God has made for us, we should feel humbled, and extremely happy and honored to be able to look upon the wonderful creations of God, and smile, thinking how beautiful, life really is. Thank you so much! by Schalia age 10 yrs Dear Muhammad and Lynete Yunis, Waht a amazing place. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We all had a blast. Our daughter enjoyed feeding arthurena, the look on Schalia's face was priceless. Our son Jr. enjoyed your pool table. We also enjoyed using your brand new rice cooker. Since I like eating rice everyday, over 2 weeks of stay here in Paradise went so fast, we can't wait to come back.... May be sometimes in 2009, since we have that big trip to Manila next year. Thank you for inviting us to your home for some drinks. Hearing the history of the place and some some good laughs. We really enjoyed your company. Come visit us in Oregon Salem.

Thank you very much for aquiring such a wonderful property and for letting us stay in it. Everthing was wonderful. Apart from the heat everything else reminded us of our own native land Ireland, of course everything is a lot more tropical here, but we all had a great time, and our grandaughter Clair had the best learning experience with the fishes & Turtles and at 10 months old she can say she swam with the fishes in Hawaii.

Certainly this is as close as one can come to the Eden of Garden on earth. Just below your Lanai is the most wonderous sight imaginable. The snorkeling in clean water of Kapoho tidepools filled with a profusion of brightly colored fish. Then there is Arthurena the 90 yrs old, 400 lbs turtle who resides in th eponds. If you are not an early riser, you soon will be when you witness the glorius sunrises. Enhancing the views are the waves and gently swaying plumeria trees. Muhammad Yunis has provided all the amenitiesin this home. He has thought of everything his guests might need and some more. It is impossible to think anything that could be added to have improved our stay!

In our 10 days here we ventured to the Kona Coast for coffee tasting & hiked 9 miles on a lava field to see the Volcano (Everyone needs their own flashlight), shopped at the farmer's market in Hilo, Snorkeled with wild sea turtles in the Champagne pond and enjoyed beautiful sunrises over the water.

They enjoyed watching and feeding Arthurena and swimming in the warm ponds. Even our youngest finally got comfortable with the water and enjoyed playing with lava rocks accross the pond. My dad got to snorkel for his first time and saw 11 Sea Turtles in Champagne Pond! Thank you so much for sharing Kapoho Paradise with us!

Mahalo for sharing your piece of heaven with us. My favorite “room” hands down, is your beautiful lanai. The sunrise every morning was spectacular! I took so ay photos. My first time to Hawaii and I don’t think I could have picked a more serene and beautiful setting. It was also my first time snorkeling and you would think I was pro. Your pond, fish and Arthurena were very entertaining as well. The family loved the hot pond down the street. Make sure to tell your other guests about that as I am sure they will enjoy it as much as we did. Mahalo for being gracious hosts! And for the life time memories.

We vacation in Kapoho beach lots 2-3 times a yr. I consider this place my “Anti aging therapy” as everyday here I find new discoveries, serenity, excitement, peace, beauty, sounds of palm trees clapping on the breeze, waves surging , the puriest of air that has traveled many distance, filtered and clean warm waters in the champagne pond often invigorating swim in the open ocean – ahh. In the last several visits, I have watched your home being built as I relaxed in champagne pond- never expecting to enjoy its warm hospitality as my family and I have come to experience this weekend. Thank you for sharing this place and time with us. It will forever be etched in our hearts and soul. Thanks you for your gentleness and care of arthurena and others that have come under your watchful care… Oh my daughters, husband and son-in law to specially thank you for letting them play in your natural pool- hope we did not disturb you too much with our laughters and sounds of play & delight! We also enjoyed amongst so many other things, your beautiful lanai, our meals together as a family was much more enjoyed and cherished out on the Lanai where we started and ended each day together.

This our second Christmas in Hawaii and unbelievably this place is even better than our cottage at Punalu’u, Oahu. We love the views, the breeze, the GREAT snorkeling, Arthurena and her entourage, beachcombing, Green sand beaches, and the marvelous food from the local markets. For future guests don’t miss: Verna’s at the New Black Sand beach at the end of Red Road. While there do the walk across the lava to the beach it was a highlight. In Volcano National Park don’t miss Thurston Lava Tube and Volcano House. We had a lovely dinner at Kilauea Lodge (be sure to make reservations); Sara highly recommends Debbie Jones for an hour and half massage on the lanai. Also enjoyed the Hilo Farmers Market."

Our stay was magical! It was the perfect location for awesome snorkeling, swimming with sea turtles and breathtaking sunrises over the ocean. We were grateful for the high quality standards of our accommodations and left feeling well rested and renewed with the serene energy of Kapoho Paradise! Resident Sea Turtle and owner’s cat were delightful! Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Cool ocean breezes, a lovely home and getting far away family members together – what more is there to life? We enjoyed our few short days more than we can express and the resident sea turtle is a joy to behold. Thank you for sharing, hope to meet you someday.

We had our fingers crossed while traveling here – could it possibly be as good as it looked and sounded on the website? Actually, it’s even better! We absolutely loved this place! It is hard to conceive of a finer getaway home and we can’t decide which view or relaxation spot we like the most! Breakfast and dinner on the deck every day, the gentle breezes and sound of crashing surf to sleep by, the cleansing daily rain showers, the daily snorkeling in Champagne Pond – something new every day! The companionship of the regal resident sea turtle, and the owner’s precious little cat, we loved every minute here on our three generation family vacation in your gorgeous home! Don’t change a thing! Thank you so much, we hope to be back again!

Dear Muhammad and Lynette! Many Mahalos for your warm and welcoming home here in Kapoho. It has been so wonderful to snorkel,swim, sun here in this gentle spot. My favorite place is with arthurena. She I realyy got along splendidly. We went to the Volcan last night and saw firefalls of Lava going into the sea. It was about 2.5 miles walk each way but well worth it. This Big Island so much to see and do. But it is hard to get into the car and leave this great home on the sea. Patty liked the singing trout We'll be back!

We thouroghly enjoyed staying at Kapoho Estate during last month. It was fun feeding Arthurena, snorkeling and swimming in the warm champagne pond and ocean. we still can hear the sounds of the ocean waves and remember the the spectular sunrises and ocean view. We are planning to visit back and stay at KApoho estate in 2004. True piece of paradise in the Big Island of Hawaii. Aloha
