Are Vacation Rentals Permitted at Wailea Ekolu?
Wailea Ekolu has apartment zoning, and owners are allowed to rent their condos for vacation use under a county ordinance. However, the county just passed a law that will phase out vacation rentals in apartment-zoned properties. As things stand, short-term rentals will be prohibited at Wailea Ekolu on January 1, 2031.
The law sunsetting vacation rentals is being challenged in the courts. Additionally, the county planning commissions are reviewing a bill that would create two new types of hotel zoning. H3 and H4 zoning would be equivalent to the current A1 and A2 zoning with one key difference: the right to offer short-term rentals.
This bill was recommended by a committee of the Maui County Council. The committee also identified condos that would be good candidates for the zoning. Wailea Ekolu was one of the condos recommended for H3 and H4 zoning if the bill passes.
Buyers interested in purchasing Wailea Ekolu Condos for Sale with the intent to vacation-rent should conduct additional due diligence.
