Short-term rental status
Kihei Bay Surf is apartment-zoned and appears on Maui County's official Minatoya list, the apartment-district properties allowed short-term occupancy under a decades-old grandfathered exception. Under Bill 9 (signed into law December 2025), apartment-zoned Minatoya rentals in South Maui are set to phase out at the start of 2031. In June 2026 the county council passed Bill 88, creating new H-3/H-4 hotel zoning that gives Minatoya buildings a path to apply individually to keep operating past that date; Kihei Bay Surf is not among the first complexes advanced for that rezoning as of mid-2026. Separately, lawsuits challenging Bill 9 itself are still working through the courts with no ruling yet. Ask Diane to confirm the current status before you count on rental income.
Rules are actively changing as of 2026. Contact Diane for the current status of a specific unit.
On the grounds
Questions buyers ask
Where is Kihei Bay Surf located?
Kihei Bay Surf sits at 715 South Kihei Road in north Kihei.
Can you short-term rent a condo at Kihei Bay Surf?
Yes, for now. Kihei Bay Surf is apartment-zoned and on the county's official Minatoya list, so it falls under Maui's Bill 9 phase-out, currently set to end South Maui short-term rentals on January 1, 2031. A 2026 county measure (Bill 88) opened a path for Minatoya buildings to apply for hotel zoning and keep operating past that date, and litigation over Bill 9 is still pending, so the picture could still change. Ask Diane to confirm the current status before you count on rental income.
