Questions about licensed stays
What does “licensed” mean?
Each of these homes holds a City and County of Honolulu license, most often a Nonconforming Use Certificate (NUC), that allows vacation stays shorter than 30 nights. The license number appears on every home’s page.
Is there a minimum stay?
Yes. Minimum stays vary by home and season, and each home’s calendar only offers dates that meet them. Pick a home and choose your dates to see what’s open.
How close are these homes to the beach?
The four Lanikai homes are a short walk from Lanikai Beach; Tree House and Garden Studio are about 100 yards from the sand. Five of the Kailua homes sit right on Kailua Beach, and Palione Papalani is about a minute’s walk from the sand.
Staying 30 nights or longer?
We also offer homes for monthly stays across Lanikai and Kailua. See the 30-night collection for those.
