Lanikai Tree House

I had the very best time staying in your lovely Tree House! It was a completely joyful stay — the beach, friends and hikes! But best of all was meeting you and the girls, and our last evening together. Thank you so much for your hospitality. I will be back! Get those bees! Thanks again.

Once again it was a true pleasure staying at your place. Even more than that, your company was an added treat — truly a great family. Thank you for sharing. Hope to see you in Maine. Thanks again!

Thank you for another spectacular stay in our tree home away from home. The highlight of this trip was a paddle out to the Mokuluas, where we swam with a monk seal. We’ll think of that every time we see the islands from your windows. Aloha, a hui hou — until we meet again.

From the moment we saw the picture of your Tree House, we fell in love with it. After a week here, we are so grateful for all the little touches that made our stay peaceful, fun and full of aloha.

Thank you for welcoming us so warmly. We’d love to come back to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary — let’s stay in touch to make it possible. Mahalo! Gracias!

Dear Rick, Nini and your family! I was able to have the most wonderful time in your wonderful Tree House! Thank you for lending us beach chairs and bodyboards. We could feel the Hawaiian air! I want to come again!

My dream came true to stay at Lanikai with my family. I appreciate your hospitality! An awesome experience staying here!

What a wonderful time we had in your beautiful Tree House. Auntie Dee and I had a memorable visit to Lanikai, and your hospitality added to it. Mahalo and aloha.

Mahalo once again for a wonderful stay in breezy Lanikai in the Tree House. Miki and I had a most delightful time. Aloha, Nini and Rick!

Mahalo! The five-night stay in the Tree House was great for us. How lovely to return to Lanikai after 11 years! The beach, surf, sun and rain showers were all welcome.

Other guests: consider hiking up to the Pillboxes behind you — super view. Crossing the street and swimming every day was RAD! A hui hou!

Our stay is never long enough! The Tree House is truly our home away from home, and we love every minute of the Lanikai love we receive each time we come. Thank you for always making us feel so comfortable and cared for with all your special touches, sweet flower arrangements, and accessories to meet our needs before we even think of them. We can’t wait to return in June. All our love.

Thank you so much for welcoming us into your Lanikai Tree House. Even though it was a short stay, it was absolutely lovely! I will be forever grateful to have spent my birthday in such an amazing place — and it’s all thanks to you both.

Your home is so peaceful; it was a treat to wake up every morning to the sounds of nature, and the personal touches you have put into this place make it a gem. Lanikai Beach will always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you for your hospitality and kindness! We’ll be back!

Thank you for your hospitality. Our family had a peaceful retreat in your beautiful Tree House. We had a wonderful visit and hope to be back again. Mahalo!

I really can’t express how fortunate we were to find you in 2003 and then get to know you in 2021. This is truly our “happy place,” and as Jim says, we will return until we can’t… brace yourselves!

Nini and Rick, you make hosting look easy, when Jim and I know it’s very hard work at times. Thank you profusely for sharing your world with us. With love, aloha and mahalo.

Dear wonderful Nini and Rick: I will spare you a ditty adapted from English to Hawaiian, but I will tell you how much we feel COMPLETELY at home in the Tree House. You go above and beyond with your special touches, for which we are so grateful. Thank you for embracing us — Jim, Susan and Liz — as fully as you always do.

Hoping to return in 2025 with Mary-Katharine and Blake in tow, as well as Susan, who definitely got bitten by the bug! Here’s to a great 2024 ahead. We will stay in touch! Thank you — mahalo. Love.

Thank you both for helping make this trip such an excellent adventure! Your hospitality, the accommodations and your inviting ways have made this vacation a trip I just don’t want to end. This island just makes me feel so good! Hope to see you next year with my dear friends Liz and Jim. Thank you!
