Hono Koa
3801 Lower Honoapiilani Rd, Lahaina, HI 96761
Hono Koa is a single oceanfront tower in Honokowai, four stories and 28 units, built in 1982. Every unit here is the same two-bedroom, two-bath layout, ranging from about 1,027 to 1,129 square feet, which keeps the building simple and consistent for buyers comparing floor plans. Pets are welcome, a point of difference from most of the older buildings along this stretch of Lower Honoapiilani Road, and residents share a beachfront pool and BBQ area with direct beach access.
Hono Koa allows vacation rental and carries A-2 apartment zoning, and it appears on Maui County's official Minatoya list at 3801 Lower Honoapiilani Road, which puts it under Bill 9's West Maui phase-out on January 1, 2029. Confirm current status with Diane before counting on rental income.
