The general location of Kapoho Beach on the Big Island of Hawaii. A breathtaking blend of stark lava and luxuriant jungle. Believed to have the cleanest air in the world as you cross 3,000 miles of ocean to reach it, its unique weather is a blessing, mostly sunny & 75º - balmy and mild with warm, intermittent & refreshing showers.

A few shots of the surrounding area. Interconnected, heated tide pools provide endless snorkeling possibilities. A truly awesome experience called Champagne Pond awaits. Now we're getting close to your Vacation of a Lifetime!

Hidden along the sunny shores of Kapoho Beach, Shangri-La's four Enchanting Bali Cottages rest on about half an acre of crystal clear, naturally heated lagoons. Beneath lush coconut and tropical palms, the healing waters average 90 degrees year round and are perfect for swimming, snorkeling or therapeutic bathing.

Through the Entry Gates you will find your own Private Compound. 4.5 Bedrooms, 2 Kitchens, 3 Baths and a 200 foot Private Lagoon.
Experience Nirvana!

Bathe, swim, snorkel & float in your Private, Irresistable Lagoon - its natural heating system powered by Kilauea Volcano! The crystal clear ponds are naturally filtered every day by the tide. There's also thousands of Tropical Fish to entertain you. Rafts and all Snorkeling Gear Provided!

In the evening, enjoy the Stars and Quiet Bliss from your Private Island Bedroom!

An 'under the stars' Spa Tub overlooks your Private Lagoon!

Waterfalls Soothe your Day!

Both the Main Kitchen and Guest Cabin Kitchen offer Every Convenience. Or have our Chef prepare you a Complete Gourmet Meal. There's Dining space for 12!

Stroll The Grounds. Enjoy an Island Nap. Relax and Unwind in your Outdoor Sauna and Shower surrounded by Orchids, Bamboo and Palm Trees. Or get a Massage to unwind after a day of Snorkeling!

The Bedrooms are Breezy, Quiet & Deliciously Comfortable! The Office area includes High Speed Wireless Internet, Copier and Scanner.

Enjoy lunch with a local Heron, then swim to Hammock Island for a Quick Snooze in the Sun or curl up with a good book. The delightfully Hidden Guest Cabin seems to float above the Magical Lagoon, offering Moments of Solitude.

Starfish accompany your Daily Strolls through your Own Private Wonderland.

Just outside the volcanic rock walls surrounding the Estate, you can Snorkel with Sea Turtles in one of the Pacific's richest and most protected Wildlife Preserves. Or, take a fifteen-minute drive to historic old Pahoa and sample some of the island's finest Boutique Shops and Restaurants.

This Unique Private Resort provides a true 'Garden of Eden' Sanctuary to slow down, soothe the soul and experience "Old Hawaii" island living at its very best.
