Maluhia at Wailea
3400 Wailea Alanui Dr, Wailea, HI 96753
Maluhia at Wailea is a gated enclave of just 15 free-standing homes set on a bluff above Mokapu Beach, one of the most private addresses in the resort. Built in 2002 on roughly 10.5 acres, each residence here is closer to a custom estate than a typical condo, with layouts from three to nine bedrooms and interiors running from about 4,750 up to a sprawling 9,394 square feet. A private beach club with a catering kitchen and direct beach access rounds out a setting built for full-time luxury rather than a stacked resort tower.
The complex carries hotel-zoning (H-2), which puts it in a different category than Wailea's older apartment-zoned buildings that are working through Maui's Bill 9 phase-out. Both vacation and long-term rentals are reported as permitted here, fitting the second-home and vacation-property profile that defines much of Wailea. As with any Wailea purchase, it is worth confirming current rental rules directly before you count on them.

Short-term rental status
Maluhia at Wailea carries hotel zoning (H-2) rather than the apartment zoning that puts many older Wailea buildings on the Minatoya list and under Maui's Bill 9 phase-out. It does not appear by name on the county's currently published short-term occupancy lists, which is not unusual for a small, newer enclave like this one. Available records describe both vacation and long-term rentals as permitted here. Ask Diane to confirm current rental rules directly before you count on them.
Rules are actively changing as of 2026. Contact Diane for the current status of a specific unit.
