Honolulu uses a minimum-stay rule rather than an annual night cap. Under ROH §21-5.730 (Ord. 22-7), every reservation under 30 consecutive days at a residentially zoned Ewa Gentry home is an unlawful Transient Vacation Unit booking, with no quota of allowable sub-30 nights.
The City and County of Honolulu uses minimum-stay rules rather than annual caps. Ordinance 22-7 amended ROH §21-5.730 to define a TVU as any rental for fewer than 90 days in residential zones, but the U.S. District Court enjoined the 90-day component in October 2022 (HLSTRA v. City and County of Honolulu, Judge Watson). The operative residential floor in Ewa Gentry is therefore 30 consecutive days per stay, with no cap on rentals at or above 30 days. There is no quota of permitted sub-30-night nights — every booking under 30 days is an independent violation. DPP's STR Enforcement Branch (768-7887) tracks listings, guest registries, and TAT filings.
Each booking shorter than 30 consecutive days at a residentially zoned Ewa Gentry property is a separate ROH §21-5.730 violation. Ord. 22-7 authorizes fines up to $10,000 first violation and $10,000 per day for each continuing day.
