| Aloha ...!Oh how we miss you ...! We just
got back Saturday and all is well! Today is my first day back at work.
I have done nothing but raved about our trip (especially the Big Island)
and about you, ... and the Kona Lani! Our visits to Maui and Oahu could
not compare to our visit and stay with you - YOU MADE OUR HONEYMOON! We cannot
thank you enough! We did enjoy the other islands, but I think they
were a little too commercial for Mike. He has raved to his friends
how cool it was to go to the coffee plant with you and how it truly was
like visiting family! We spent a lot of time last night watching the video
he shot of our stay! Again I cannot thank you enough for your hospitality
and kindness! AND.... we are totally spoiled now on our taste for coffee!
Thank you for your generous gift. Be assured that we will enjoy every bean!
Can't wait until I tell Mike - he will be thrilled! ... I cannot say
"Mahalo" enough. I'm hoping that Mike's mom will plan a trip to visit there,
and will also to be sure to tell .... how great their recommendation was!
Our fondest regards, Jean and Mike |
| Just had to tell you. ... cannot stop talking about how wonderful it was staying with you and how beautiful the locale and how knowledgeable you are. They were sorry they didn't plan a longer stay with you. .... said that after they left and were sight seeing, etc., .... would say, "Where's Tom..." They have wonderful memories to treasure. Best of luck in your wonderful venture. Sincerely Angela & Tony |
| It was wonderful staying with you ....
Your place is fabulous. We enjoyed the accommodations and the company.
... Thanks for your hospitality. Kit and I will be breaking
into the bananas tomorrow. ...Mona |
| Aloha ...! Michael and I were just
reminicing last night of how one year ago this week we had met you and were
enjoying our honeymoon! OH HOW WE MISS THE BIG ISLAND! The week
spent at your place was one of the most memorable times in our lives.
We have started a "future" vacation fund so hopefully one day we can return...
and bring with us our Hawaiian souvenier - baby Michael! He already
has the wardrobe - see the enclosed picture! Hope all is well with
you! Best wishes, Jean |
| I MISS YOU ... very much. Had such
a wonderful time.... Fresh wonderful Kona coffee fresh guava juice,
avocado trees, a visual feast.... and the most beautiful countryside.
Thank you both so much for the snorkeling (will never forget
granddad turtle) and your music is beautiful, and showing me the island...
It was an unforgettable vacation....love Nancy |
| We really did feel at home at your
place, perhaps too much so!! Tori and I rarely stay in the
same place twice in our vacation time, but your place and hospitality will
break that run, I am sure. The Happiest of Holidays to you and Dmitri....Cyd
|
| We so enjoyed our visit. .... I
will only ever stay at the Konalani when I next come to Hawaii. Thank you
so much....Jon |

Thank you ... for the wonderful accommodations while we searched
for our home here on the Big Island. The several months in your condo suite
were so quiet and relaxing we will always remember your hospitality. You
certainly are a most generous host and made our stay comfortable
and fun. We even became attached to the kittys too. Kona Lani is certainly
a beautiful environment, decorated impecably and interesting to experience with
the constant coffee production and fruit available from the gardens.
Being an artist -my appreciation of the views were one of inspiration,
the fruits tasty and coffee divine!! It was always wonderful to have
on the table some of the abundance from the gardens. The
best part is that we have found and continue a great friendship
and share many experiences living here on the Big Island! Kona Lani is a
special place - and a blessing to experience here in
Hawaii....Aloha, Cindy & Robert

| ....We had such a wonderful week there. I can tell you that if you weren't so far away we would definitely join you more often. ...Lynne and Jessie |
| We're back home ...and already
missing the islands. With no exaggeration, the week we spent with
you was the most fun i've ever had with my clothes on. We couldn't
have been welcomed more warmly or made to feel more welcome. The accomodations
were every bit as fine as a Four-Star hotel, and the breakfasts were truly
delicious! Our rooms were so beautifully decorated they could have
appeared in a magazine. Kudos ... for the lush grounds! I don't
feel I missed anything by not visiting the Botanical Gardens -- they couldn't
have been any more beautiful. And your company was so much fun --
we really enjoyed visiting with you. ... We learned so much more about
your beautiful island than we ever would have without your company. Thanks
a million -- you truly made our vacation. I waited such a long
time to visit Hawai'i that I was afraid I would be disappointed by by the
reality. But it was even better than my fantasy, thanks to you .....
It was my first trip, but it certainly won't be my last. Mahalo ...
and I'll see you again....Judy |
| I .. truly enjoyed myself, the best vacation ever thanks to you .... I enjoyed the trip to your island much more than Oahu. Too much traffic and too many people. ... Again thanks for everything. .... Gary |
| I wish we could be back
here on your wonderful coffee plantation ( with all those wonderful fruit
trees)and enjoying those fantastic breakfasts that you coooked for us. We
would love to return ..... We have the fondest memories ... and how much
we enjoyed it there. Hopefully we can return someday and do it all over again........
Lynne and Jessie |

| 2011 ... You have a fabulous place and the
food and conversations were wonderful. I can’t wait to return! ...Thank
for all your wonderful attention, ...Michelle |
| 2011 ...we had such a great time staying at
your condo, I can't tell you how much I really appreciated being able
to do that. Thank you! For me it has become a little of
home away from home :-) I hope to be able to return soon (let me know
if you ever need extra help :-) will be there in a flash!)... Tania |
