Urban Honolulu STR operators must carry at least $1,000,000 in commercial general liability insurance under ROH Sec. 21-5.730, submitted with each annual registration.
Bill 41 amendments to ROH Sec. 21-5.730 require every registered bed and breakfast and transient vacation unit in Urban Honolulu to maintain at least $1,000,000 in commercial general liability insurance. Homeowner policies qualify only if they carry a business liability endorsement that matches the $1 million threshold for transient use. In high-density Waikiki and Ala Moana condo buildings, association master policies do not satisfy this unit-level requirement. DPP requires proof of coverage at initial registration and every annual renewal, and the policy must cover guest injuries and property damage.
Lapsed or insufficient coverage is grounds for registration denial, revocation, and daily fines under Bill 41's enforcement provisions; DPP routinely audits certificates.
