Kapolei long-term rentals do not register, but short-term rentals under 90 days must register with DPP under LUO Sec. 21-5.730 and are restricted outside resort-zoned areas.
Kapolei sits primarily in residential and mixed-use zoning rather than resort zoning, so new transient vacation units and bed and breakfast homes are largely prohibited. Those that qualify must register annually with the Department of Planning and Permitting under LUO Sec. 21-5.730. Registration carries a $1,000 initial fee and a $500 annual renewal. Stays under 90 days fall within the ordinance. Long-term rentals in Kapolei are not registered with the City, though HOA and condo association rules often govern minimum lease terms and tenant approval procedures.
Unregistered short-term rental operators can incur daily civil penalties up to $10,000, DPP notices of violation, and lien exposure on the property.
