After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years.

She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
The Hawaiian Islands are known across the planet for our incredible beaches and nearly 750 miles of gorgeous coastline, but most people don’t associate the Aloha State with sprawling forests. And while we love hiking through the forest as much as the next person, there’s nothing quite like experiencing Hawaii’s lush forests from above — especially when you stay in a treehouse like this one. If you are searching for a unique experience, and perhaps a little romance, adventure or enchantment, this gorgeous treehouse rental listed on Airbnb fits the bill.
If you’re searching for the perfect Hawaii Island getaway that will make you feel worlds away from the island’s most popular tourist centers, this treehouse tucked away in the tropical rainforest just eight miles from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is perfect.
Elevated 15 feet off the forest floor, this treehouse will fulfill your wildest childhood dreams.

As soon as you arrive, you’ll swear you’ve wandered into a fairytale. A gravel driveway nestled off the road for privacy gives way to a winding, 120-foot-long wood-chip covered path that meanders through the ferns.
From here, you will find yourself on the lower lanai, surrounded by hanging plants and featuring an eight-foot Balinese Bale’ daybed perfect for curling up with a good book or enjoying a lazy afternoon nap.
The downstairs bathroom features woven bamboo walls, a handmade Koa wood washbasin, flushing toilet, ten-foot ceilings, and large, rainwater shower powered by solar and on-demand propane for heat, complete with a cozy bench.
As you make your way upstairs, you’ll encounter another peaceful lanai with wicker chairs and overstuffed cushions. This covered lanai gives guests the opportunity to enjoy the rain, and take in the beauty of the towering Ohia, Koa, Guava, and Eucalyptus trees that reach heights of up to 60 feet.
The comfy mattress will ensure you enjoy a tranquil night’s sleep among the trees.
