Unfriendly to Investors
Short-term rentals are completely prohibited in Mauna Loa due to a moratorium on new STRH permits as of October 2025, creating an absolute barrier to new STR investment. Existing operators may continue under grandfathered status, but no new permits are being processed, rendering new STR ventures infeasible. High enforcement penalties ($20,000 initial fines) further discourage potential investors.
