Napili Puamala
50 Napili Pl, Lahaina, HI 96761
Napili Puamala is a small, single-building complex at 50 Napili Place, tucked right on the water in Napili. Built in 1970, it holds just 18 units across two floors, a mix of 409-square-foot studios and one-bedroom units running 570 to 579 square feet. A pool, BBQ area, storage, and direct beach access make it a compact, low-key option for buyers who want to be oceanfront without a large building around them.
Available records show vacation rental is currently allowed at Napili Puamala, and the property is zoned H-1, which would place it in the hotel-zoned category typically found outside the apartment-district framework that Bill 9's West Maui phase-out (January 1, 2029) applies to. This has not been independently confirmed against the county's official list, so confirm current rental status with Diane before counting on rental income.
