Kihei Kai Nani
2495 S Kihei Rd, Kihei, HI 96753
Kihei Kai Nani is a beachfront community near Kamaole Beach Park I, built in 1970. It is confirmed hotel-zoned rather than apartment-zoned, so unlike many older Kihei complexes on the Minatoya list, it is not targeted by Maui's Bill 9 apartment-district phase-out.
That makes Kihei Kai Nani, along with neighboring Kihei Akahi, one of the more rental-stable choices in this stretch of Kihei.

Short-term rental status
Kihei Kai Nani is not apartment-zoned and does not appear on the county's Minatoya list. County records show it zoned H2 and BR (Hotel and Business Resort), so short-term rental here is allowed directly under the zoning rather than through the apartment-district exception that Bill 9 is phasing out. That means Kihei Kai Nani is not targeted by the January 2031 apartment-district deadline. Zoning can still change, so it is worth a quick confirmation with Diane if rental income matters to your purchase.
Rules are actively changing as of 2026. Contact Diane for the current status of a specific unit.
