Hale Kai
3691 Lower Honoapiilani Rd, Lahaina, HI 96761
Hale Kai sits directly on the water along Lower Honoapiilani Road in Honokowai, a low-rise, fee-simple oceanfront property built in 1967. Two two-story buildings hold 40 units with no elevator, a layout that keeps the whole property close to the sand, the pool, and the covered BBQ area. Storage space and cable are included, practical touches for a building this age that has kept its bones simple.
Available records show Hale Kai allows vacation rental and carries R-3 zoning. R-3 is a residential district, not one of the apartment districts (A-1/A-2) that make up Maui County's Minatoya list, so short-term rental here would run through a different mechanism, such as a Short-Term Rental Home permit, which Bill 9's West Maui phase-out does not affect. This has not been independently confirmed against the county's official records. Confirm current zoning and rental status with Diane before counting on rental income.

Short-term rental status
Hale Kai is on Maui County's apartment-district Minatoya list and is zoned A-2, which puts it under Bill 9's West Maui phase-out: last legal night December 31, 2028. Confirm the current position with Diane before counting on rental income.
Maui’s short-term rental rules are changing month to month, and several rezoning resolutions are live right now. See the current status of Bill 9, Bill 88 and the Minatoya list for the latest, including whether this building is named in any rezoning resolution.
If you need vacation-rental flexibility without a phase-out date, hotel-zoned condos sit outside the apartment-district phase-out entirely.

Questions buyers ask

Can I do vacation rental at Hale Kai?
Available records show Hale Kai allows vacation rental and carries R-3 zoning, a residential district rather than an apartment district, so it isn't a Minatoya-list property and Bill 9's apartment-district phase-out wouldn't apply the same way. That has not been independently confirmed against the county's official records, so confirm current zoning and rental status with Diane before counting on rental income.
