Kihei Garden Estates
1299 Uluniu Rd, Kihei, HI 96753
Kihei Garden Estates sits near Uluniu Road and Kalama Park in north Kihei, a quieter, more residential pocket of the neighborhood. Built in 1979, it holds 84 homes, a mid-size community that keeps a lower profile than some of the busier oceanfront complexes along South Kihei Road.
Kihei Garden Estates is apartment-zoned and confirmed on Maui County's official Minatoya list. Because of that Minatoya designation, it falls under Maui's Bill 9 phase-out on the standard South Maui timeline.

Short-term rental status
Kihei Garden Estates 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 Garden Estates 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 Garden Estates located?
Kihei Garden Estates sits at 1299 Uluniu Road, in north Kihei near Kalama Park.
Can you short-term rent a condo at Kihei Garden Estates?
Yes, for now. Kihei Garden Estates 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.
