Noni was an excellent host. Great at communications, easy, clear, prompt and when we met her she had the most wonderful energy! She is a lovely artist (her work is in the studio) and a school teacher! The studio was pretty private which was interesting since it is below the main house, but we had use of a large lanai that was a wonderful place to eat dinner, stargaze and ocean gaze. The bed was huge and comfy, the linens felt amazing and the comforter was beautiful and tasteful. I loved waking up to sunrises right outside my window in the morning and feeling the trade winds blow through the sliding glass door screen. The location of this studio is amazing, right up a small hill from the beach and with covered parking included! We swam from Lanikai beach to Flat Island using boogie boards provided by the house, hit the beach daily at 7:30 am and had the trip of a lifetime!
