Maybe, we can hope so. But I think he could have a better view of Oahu locations from Oahu, on Oahu than looking from Maui or Lanai.

Side-note unrelated to the Tesla superchargers...
The Four Seasons Manele is adding 8 additional EV chargers:
KivaNet 9.1.2.1
At this rate, EV chargers may soon outnumber people on Lanai.

Probably will be, but I don’t think Larry would mind if the locals or any visitors used his charging stations

Larry owns most of the island, and there are only a few locals, most working for him. There is minimal visitor support, such as hotels, restaurants, car rentals and touristy sites. Larry owns all the hotels for example. It wouldn't surprise me if all car rentals (besides 4x4 Jeeps etc.) are EVs real soon.Probably will be, but I don’t think Larry would mind if the locals or any visitors used his charging stations
Lanai might be the first "almost" all-EV location in the world. Lots of chargers and charging locations will be part of that.
Just a small update: the permit shows the first 3 inspections have taken place and passed March 12-16.
Looks like construction has started and some initial progress is being made.

Don't forget to add, makes absolutely no difference to 99.99999% of the people on earth or even US of A, unless you are one of those of the 1% that can go and stay at his $1,000+ per night Four Seasons. For all intents and purposes, Lanai might as well not be getting a Supercharger as it applies to the rest of us in Hawaii. Take no offense Larry, you can do whatever you wish.

Some more permit activity, another passed inspection on June 2nd. I'll try not to post too many frequent updates here since this is a niche charging location. But it's nice to see more updates after a few months of quiet.

@TerranApart, You can't be to frequent with updates about anywhere in Hawaii. Niche, yes, but all of Hawaii is a niche charging location. All here are interested about updates. Keep them coming. Am I right?
New inspection activity on September 7th: "Conduits for feeder and branch circuits to charger stands. and stubs for switchgear 1 & 2."

Electrek seems to think that this one is already live (just unlisted) but that could just be them looking for a clickbait hook for their article.

Tesla Supercharger network is now 'officially' in all 50 states with public Hawaii station
Tesla announced that it installed a new Supercharger station in Hawaii, which means that the Supercharger network is now “officially”...

Per the permit inspection log, electric rough-in and running of the electric service passed inspection on December 21st, 2021. But the permit is still open, so the construction is likely not finished yet.

Well, I hope this is not the location that was in the permit originally. I've been to the chargers a couple of times now. During business hours, the Pearlridge parking for regular cars is frequently full. So when the 6 chargers are in use, there's no place for "Teslas waiting" to sit. Don't misunderstand, we are pleased/grateful to have these, but the site for the 12 was more open and of course twice the chargers. These chargers have been very busy already and open only 2 weeks. Bottom line: I hope this is an unexpected extra that was installed before the original first 12. We could surely use them all.
Now someone is going to jump on my case about wrong location. Pearlridge is central Oahu and a big help to all that travel. But its not the most convenient to those folks that live in town, agreed. We can be hopeful that more locations are coming. Let's just open the new year with some thanks that we have these and let's be patient.
