Short-term rental status

HM/R-2

Southpointe at Waiakoa's zoning is recorded as HM/R-2, not the A-1/A-2 apartment zoning that feeds Maui County's Minatoya list, and vacation rental is reported as not permitted here. With long-term rental allowed, this reads as a residential community rather than a short-term rental play. Confirm current rules with Diane if that matters to your decision.
