Aloha!
We are absolutely thrilled to welcome you to the beautiful island where we raised our 'Ohana.
As a professional team with backgrounds in education, law, and business, nothing brings us more joy than sharing this paradise with our guests—whether that's over a fresh cup of Kona coffee or out on the waves.
We are true ocean fanatics, and when we aren't hosting, you'll find us in the water almost every single day snorkeling, diving, or swimming.
Our philosophy here is simple: Come as strangers, leave as friends. We can't wait to share our home, our passion for the sea, and our Aloha with you!
After 25 years navigating bells, hallways, and leadership roles as a school principal, I traded the schoolyard for the ultimate island reset. Those decades at the helm taught me plenty about metrics—but far more about how people conquer massive life transitions, high-stakes decisions, and the unexpected turn.
My real education was forged outside the classroom: walking the Camino de Santiago three times and caring for my parents through long illnesses. Through it all, I learned that we don't move on by forgetting the past; we level up by how we choose to carry our stories forward.
While you're here soaking in the views, I’m ready to help you make every moment count. Blending my experience as a school leader, fitness coach, and Franklin Covey strategist, I host private guest intensives focused on high-impact parent coaching, decision-making, relationship fitness, and physical resets. I’m also a meditation practitioner, a proud dad, a writer, and fully ordained to officiate weddings on the island.
Whether you're here to completely unplug on the lanai or ready to sharpen your focus and unlock your next level, we are thrilled to welcome you to paradise!
SHAHEER
By day, I’m an attorney, mediator, and real estate entrepreneur who thrives on untangling complex legal puzzles and high-stakes asset divisions. I handle the heavy lifting so my clients can breathe easy—but out here on the Big Island, I trade the courtroom for the coast as much as possible!
I treat our rentals as my personal canvas, channeling my obsession with interior design to create the ultimate, vibrant island sanctuary for our guests. When I’m not managing properties or talking strategy, I am fully immersed in island life: scuba diving, chasing new adventures, and soaking up the rays at our favorite local beaches.
I know how hectic life can get, which is why I’ve designed these spaces for pure comfort and effortless relaxation. Drop your bags, leave the stress behind, and welcome to our slice of heaven!
MARIA
Our Labor of Love
For over 25 years, the two of us have poured our hearts and souls into building this property as a joint artistic labor of love, hosting thousands of incredible global travelers. We've combined Shaheer’s focus on growth and healing with Maria’s eye for vibrant interior design to bring you a true sanctuary. We are so excited to share our paradise with you! Come as strangers, leave as friends!
