East Honolulu short-term rentals must post maximum occupancy limits set in the DPP-registered floor plan, based on bedroom count and safety standards.
ROH Sec. 21-5.730 requires registered B&Bs and TVUs to identify maximum occupancy per bedroom in the floor plan. Bedroom count caps apply, and the informational binder left for guests must include occupancy rules. Exceeding posted occupancy can trigger enforcement. In Hawaii Kai's larger coastal homes, operators sometimes face temptation to overcrowd for revenue; doing so risks registration revocation and daily fines. Occupancy rules protect neighborhood density, parking balance, and infrastructure capacity in these quiet residential zones.
Allowing more overnight guests than posted, booking events that exceed limits, or altering the floor plan to add beds.
