Kona Home Team (LUVA LLC) Lance Owens (RB-24133), 2024 Real Estate Expert - Hawaii Island (Kona Home Team (luva llc)) • July 30, 2024

Maui is on the verge of significant changes with a proposal to phase out thousands of short-term vacation rentals in an effort to address the island’s housing crisis. This move aims to prioritize long-term housing for residents and alleviate the pressures on the local housing market. You can read the full article on these developments here.

Secure Your Investment with Confidence

In light of these upcoming changes, the listing at 2481 Kaanapali Pkwy #964 stands out as a secure and versatile investment. This property is not included in the proposed regulations, ensuring your investment remains unaffected by the new short-term rental policies.


Key Features: 

2481 Kaanapali Pkwy Unit: 964 2481 Kaanapali Pkwy Unit: 964, Lahaina, HI 96761

  • Prime Location: Enjoy the vibrant surroundings of Kaanapali with easy access to pristine beaches, world-class dining, and cultural landmarks.
  • Spacious and Elegant: This unit features amazing ocean views, modern interior with ample natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
  • Resort-Style Living: Benefit from top-tier facilities including a swimming pool, fitness center, and beautifully manicured gardens.


Why This Listing Stands Out

Exempt from Proposed Short-Term Rental Changes: One of the most significant advantages of this property is its exemption from the new proposed regulations on short-term vacation rentals. The condo is situated in "Hotel Zoning," having always been intended for hotel-style living, which allows short-term rentals. This means your investment remains secure and versatile, whether you choose to enjoy it as a private retreat or capitalize on rental opportunities under the current guidelines.

Sustainable Investment: With the ongoing shifts in Maui’s real estate landscape, owning a property that aligns with the new regulations provides long-term stability and growth potential.

Embrace the Maui Lifestyle

This listing at 2481 Kaanapali Pkwy #964 represents an incredible opportunity to own a piece of paradise without the uncertainties surrounding short-term rental regulations. Whether you’re looking for a permanent residence, a vacation home, or an investment property, this unit promises unmatched value and a future-proof investment.
