Kailua STR listings must disclose maximum occupancy by bedroom under the Bill 41 registration packet, and B&Bs cannot exceed designated bedroom counts or advertised guest limits.
ROH Sec. 21-5.730 requires the floor plan submitted at registration to identify the maximum occupancy for each bedroom, with informational binders posted on-site for guests. B&Bs are capped at a limited number of rentable bedrooms, and TVUs must operate within advertised occupancy. DPP enforcement in Kailua reviews listing photos and advertisements to confirm occupancy matches the registered plan. Overcrowding creates life-safety concerns under the building code and amplifies noise and parking complaints.
Exceeding posted occupancy can trigger fines and registration suspension, with daily penalties up to $10,000 for ongoing violations.
