About The Owner

Owners:

My wife & I are originally from California and I am a retired Veterinarian & Real Estate Investor. My wife is a wonderful Horse Woman & Animal trainer, which she continues to follow what she loves at our 1 Hour away Pepeekeo Ranch.

We fell in love with Kapoho & we moved out here start our retirement. We use to have a Sea Turtle in the pond of our current home in Kapoho and it is because of her that we have embraced Hawaii so much more.

We've developed a small business with few vacation homes down in Kapoho and we enjoy providing the opportunity for others to experience Kapoho like we have. Our daughters have grown up & went to college out here in UHH & UHM. They love the beautiful ocean. We all enjoy the fun nature activities all around us: Surfing, Snorkeling, Kayaking, Diving, Spear-Fishing, Fishing & exploring the Tropical surroundings in the community.

We hope you'll enjoy all that Hawaii has to offer. You'll want to keep coming back too! Muhammad & Lynette

The Owner purchased this house in 1996
Why The Owner chose Kapoho

Wanted to live in Paradise and loving it since 1996.

What makes this house unique

The unique things about our home is that Lyman Estate built this home from the ground up and got to design the floor plans & all the beautiful decorations in the 50's as their home home. Since then it has been upgraded for comfortable living whule preserving its outside appearance. The best part about this home is surrounded with the large geothermallyy heated Warm Property Aquatic Pond & gorgeous tropical fish with easy access into ocean and ponds! We enjoy relaxing at this home because of the beautiful Ocean views on the 2nd Level Deck & Comfortable Living Room. We have Master bedroom, Living Room, Kitchen and Laundry at Upper Level. Lower Level has 2nd and 3rd Bed with Full Bath, Jacuzzi Tub and 2 Swimming Ponds. all on the 2nd level, so lots of wonderful ocean & tropical views from each room. Some of the family gets to enjoy the many spacious lower level room.

We all enjoy going into Pahoa Town & have a nice dinner or lunch either at LuQuin's Mexican Bar & Restaurant, Ning's Thai, or a more formal dining we would go to Kaleo's Restaurant. During the day, we try to make it to the Natural Steam-Vents from the Volcano often and my daughters usually makes it down to Pohiki (Issac Park) & go surfing for half a day. Fun Sunset activity, we would go down to the Lava Fields at the end of Kapoho-Kalapana Highway & walk to the newly formed beaches, & on the way back in the dark look at the Kiluea Volcano & try to see the lava flowing down the mountain but remember to bring a flashlight, it’s extremely dark!

This was our residence until we decided to build new home in Pepeekeo on 13 Oceanfront Acres, so that we can have horses and animals with us.

Very Special Vacation Home

5 of 5
Submitted: December 11, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
This was an outstanding rental experience for our extended family of six (two 50+ adults and 4 kids in 20s/30s). Lots to do for everyone in a truly spectacular setting. This is a tastefully landscaped estate home in a private gated community. Swimming and snorkeling choices abound - there are steps down into the bay, a small swimming pond next to the ocean, an ample-sized private warm pond full of tropical fish and a private access to the nearby (two minute walk) Champagne Pond. Less than a ten minute drive to the Ahalanui hot pond/park. The home is well stocked with snorkel gear, boogie boards and so forth. One family member is a runner and enjoyed occasional jogs to Ahalanui and back (about 6.5 miles roundtrip). Another is a fisherman and could cast right off the front deck into the bay. A well-equipped kitchen (we cooked a full Thanksgiving dinner there) and comfortable furnishings through-out made us feel right at home. Awesome large screen TV with Blu-ray player and discs in the living room. Although we often did NOT want to leave this peaceful lovely place, nearby Pahoa offered some really good dining experiences as well as shopping for groceries. 40 minutes from the Volcanoes national park, 25 minutes from Hilo. And, for the history buff, this house was a residence of the famed musician Arthur Lyman. This land was selected for not only its physical beauty but for the peace and healing spiritual energy it provides. Best of all, Sofia and her family have a true spirit of aloha - they were extremely responsive to our questions and requests and made us feel totally at home. Combine all this and you have one very special vacation rental - we will be back!

My Favorite VRBO rental yet.

Submitted: November 16, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
This is my third rental in this area and it was by far in the best location for snorkeling. The pond that is just outside the door was very clean, calm, and great for snorkeling. The Champagne pond has access from the property. We snorkeled in the ocean in front of the house and saw huge turtles and many fish. The Wai ‘Opae Tide Pools are just down the street. The Ahalanui Hot Pond, with 90+ degree water year round, is a five minute drive away. The house was clean and very comfortable. Plenty of towels and a washer and dryer for your convenience. One of our party fell and we needed to call 911. Just so you know the aid car has access to all the gates. They were prompt, with in 10 minutes and very helpful. Sophia also has well stocked first aid kits through out the house as well has flash lights.
Our favorite grocery store was Island Markets, a health food store and deli. Located in downtown Hilo and just down the street in Pahoa. There was a three way tie for our favorite restaurant. Naung Mai Thai Kitchen in Hilo, Puka Puka Kitchen in Hilo, and Kaleo's in Pahoa. Sophia has menu's and prices in the guest book. We didn't have enough time to try all the great restaurants in the area.
I love the Big Island people, and I will surely be back. If I travel alone then I would rent the main part of the house. If I take guests like I did this time I know that everyone would be very comfortable. The two bedrooms on the lower level can only be accessed by going outside so be aware of that. Two of us had wonderful massages from Rose, outside on the Lanai. If I ever get married again Audrey from next door does weddings on the huge yard. I felt very safe and the security gates weren't too much of a problem.
A big thanks to Sophia and her family for renting us a wonderful property. Mahalo!!!!!!

My husband and I are distance and lap swimmers. It was FABULOUS to swim laps in the the hot pond - 80 strokes lengthwise for the crawl, 90 for the breaststroke. Kayaking is also possible off the seawall, and there is a path through the reef. Most enjoyable; we'll come again. Lots of rough stone and stairs, so not a great place for little kids, but 8 yrs and up would really enjoy a few days there.

We live in Hilo, however, we love visiting Kapoho. We stayped in Kapoho Estate Home for 4 days. it was absolutely magical and located in such a beautiful location. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Great place to swim and snorkel from the property. We enjoyed swimming in the large private pond. Thanks Sophia for offering this great and warm home. There is no other place like this. We'll see you again.
