- Snowlake20Nashua, New Hampshire15 contributionsDon't miss Mike Carroll GalleryAloha, Mike and Kat were so kind and helpful. Mike explained the significance of his photography and artwork. Kat was very helpful in picking out jewelry and tiny vases. Now, I am home loving my purchases and can't wait to see them again! Thank you for making our visit memorable.

- Mike6434Omaha, Nebraska2 contributionsBeautiful prints, excellent service!I visited this gallery in 2018 and fell in love with the art. We purchased several prints to put in our home in Omaha and give it that Maui/Linai vibe. I traveled there again in May 2023, but was unable to get to the store. Bummed out, I called Kat and Mike to see if I could purchase online to decorate my office. They were awesome and accommodated right away.Thank you so much, Mike6434, for contacting us! It was a pleasure to work with you over the phone to provide the perfect artwork for your wonderful new office! We do hope you'll stay in touch, and we stay ready to assist with all your art needs!

- JesseHDenver, Colorado13 contributionsLovely gallery - we'll definitely be backLovely gallery. Mike and his wife were so fun to talk to (his wife also runs the Lanai Cat Sanctuary just down the road, which is great and entertaining place to visit as well). We bought a framed painting from Mike and then had it shipped back to Colorado. Everything went smoothly and without any issues. I definitely recommend stopping by the gallery and checking it out. Then walk to lunch after at a local restaurant. LÄnaāi City is a wonderful place all around.Visited September 2022Traveled with familyWritten August 9, 2023
- LoriJosephUSA8 contributionsPurchase a Lanai KeepsakeWe enjoyed visiting with gallery owners Mike and Kat Carroll while exploring Lanai City. They provided some island history and shared their experience living in Lanai. The gallery offers numerous quality pottery gifts, jewelry, woodworking, and paintings for all budgets. You can even commission Mike to paint something exclusively for you. Care and handling for shipping framed prints was top-notch.Visited August 2023Traveled with friendsWritten August 28, 2023
- Brandon KFlagstaff, Arizona1,953 contributionsGreat gallery and the ability to talk to the artistWe walked into the gallery while wandering Lanai City and started looking around. The owner and artist was painting in the middle of the gallery and we started talking to his wife and him about our time on Lanai and that he was painting the bay we just came from that morning. We had a great conversation and ended up buying some art that was part of our conversation. There is a wide variety of reasonably priced prints in various sizes and original art pieces also for reasonable prices. It was an amazing find and I have a great reminder of Lanai.Visited August 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten August 28, 2023
- BPx458hSherwood, Oregon52 contributionsWe love the Mike Carroll Gallery!The Mike Carroll Gallery was a highlight of our stay in LÄnaāi. We visited the shop twiceācame back a second time because we so enjoyed the beauty and craftsmanship on display by Mike and other local artists. The owners, Mike and Kat, are delightful, sharing their stories and insights of the area. Mike has his easel, paint and tools right in the center of the gallery, so you can see what he is working on when you walk in. His work is exceptional! We were so glad to take some home with us. His beautiful pieces show their love for the island and its people. What a delightful time we had there!Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 30, 2023
- Michael KBoise, Idaho4 contributionsBeautiful local artMy wife and I visited Mikeās gallery in Lanaāi City after seeing his work at the Four Seasons. Not only is his artwork beautiful, but he is also great to visit with and get tips on Lanaāi. His gallery also contains a diverse assortment of other very talented local artistsā works in a variety of media. We were both shocked to find so much beautiful art in such a small town. Highly recommend visiting Lanaāi City and Mikeās gallery!Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 10, 2023
- Susan OChicago, Illinois2 contributionsMust visit when on Lanai!Such a charming shop! We met Mike and his wife Kat in the gallery and they could not have been lovelier people. First, the gallery is chock full of so many different kinds of art. Having just come from the Lanai Cat Sanctuary, we were drawn to all the cat themed pieces, but if that's not for you, they have so many other options to choose from. Many affordable options as well - don't think because it is a "gallery" that you have to pay hundreds of dollars to walk out with something you'll treasure. When you visit Lanai definitely make sure to stop in and check it out - you will end up with a piece of art that is truly special and a lasting memory of a lovely place.Visited October 2023Traveled with friendsWritten October 20, 2023
- Bob K2 contributionsLanai local flavor, and beautiful art piecesMike and Kat are the owners for several decades, so they are the real Lanai deal. Mike is the artist and Kat is the welcoming presence that is present at any great local business. She is also the founder of the famous cat farm for distressed or abandoned pets, most recently adopting two hundred Lahaina Fire cats. Mike truly captures the island, and Hawaiian spirit and lifestyle. Weāve strolled in during our most recent two trips to Lanai and have grabbed a print each time: Bird of Paradise and Two Much Fun. They are classics, and very reasonably priced. This time, we opted for Koa wood framing, and it didnāt brake the bank. Donāt walk the square without stopping in. They are a joy to talk story with, and the art is awesome.Visited February 2024Traveled with familyWritten February 10, 2024

If you are visiting Lanai, a visit to Mike Carroll Gallery is a must. Mike and Kat have curated a wonderful collection of artists in addition to his original oil paintings and they were delightful to meet. They are knowledgeable, kind and passionate about their artists and the island. You are sure to find a beautiful piece for your home. We were thrilled to find a hand carved koa wood cribbage board by Greg Eaves.

If you visit Lanai without stopping here you're missing out!! Not only is Mike a very accomplished artist, there's a wonderful variety of art in different mediums from other artists throughout Lanai and the rest of Hawaii. Mike's paintings really capture the essence and beauty of life on Lanai in a way no photograph ever could, and every time I look at the painting I bought it transports me back to this gem of an island. Additionally, Mike and Kat are absolutely wonderful people - kind and friendly, really down to earth, and a total joy to chat with. Stop by and check it out!

Brice and I had a great time there. Mike and Kat are very friendly. They told us a bit of their life and also some tips and places to go in the island. They have a big collection of arts for all tastes and choices of different prices. Definitely a place to go back every time we go to Lanai. Thank you. Obrigada

You must stop and visit the Mike Carroll Gallery if you are in Lanai! The art is from local artists (much of it is Mike's beautiful paintings) and very unique! We visited with Kat, the founder of the Lanai Cat Sanctuary and learned itās history and future plans.
She was caring for a kitten found by hunters and feeding it with a syringe. So sweet.
Kat is one of the nicest people youāll meet.

On any visit to Lanai city, you should not miss the opportunity of visiting Mike Carroll's Shop. Not only is Mike an accomplished artist, he and his wife "Kat" are a pleasure to meet and visit with and observe different artwork around Lanai. We are very pleased with the piece of artwork we purchased from them as it will remind us of our great visit to Lanai.

Mike and Kat are terrific! Loved talking to Mike as he painted and perusing the gallery. Even wound up buying an art piece, which is currently being framed and shipped home. Works include those by Mike (purchasable as an original or print) as well as other local artists.
