Maui Kai
106 Kaanapali Shores Pl, Lahaina, HI 96761
Maui Kai is a single ten-story oceanfront tower built in 1969, with 80 units. It stands out among low-rise West Maui condos for its height, and floor plans run from small studios to a rare two-bedroom layout.
Maui Kai carries a mixed hotel-apartment (HOTEL-APT) zoning designation, and vacation rental is currently allowed alongside long-term rental. It does not appear on the county's published Minatoya list of grandfathered apartment-zoned buildings, consistent with its distinct hotel-apartment zoning rather than a standard apartment designation. Confirm current zoning and rental rules with Diane before counting on rental income.
