The Modern Day Kamaole Ahupuaa Partnership
Within Kamaole the residents, visitors, workers, property owners, businesses and government all play critical roles in the day to day functioning of the community.
Today the Kamaole Ahupuaa is divided into 1656 individual tax map parcels. Coordination of activities and resource use amongst the key partners is critical for the health of the community, economy and the environment. Managing these relationships becomes the role of the Modern Day Digital Konohiki.
Currently 81 of the 1656 properties in Kamaole are identified in the Hawaii Statewide GIS System “Hotel” data layer as part of the “Visitor Plant Inventory / VPI.” These properties fall into five different categories.
Hotel - 2
Condominium Hotel - 4
Individual Vacation Unit - 60
Timeshare - 6
Bed and Breakfast - 9
Two properties operate as traditional hotels. The Maui Coast Hotel, with 427 rooms is the largest. The Days Inn has 87 rooms. Visitors staying at these locations do not have access to kitchen facilities and are looking for meals each day.
Four Condominium properties within Kamaole also operate as hotels with the occupants having the ability to shop and prepare meals within their accommodations.
Individual Vacation Units total 60. Promoting shopping, dining and activity options within Kamaole can help create a “walking vacation” trend, reducing reliance on cars and concentrating the customer base for Kamaole businesses.
Six properties operate as a Timeshare.
Nine properties operate as Bed and Breakfast businesses.
Properties listed in the “Hotels” data layer have a large impact on our community. The visitors using these facilities are also a source of demand for Kamaole products and services creating revenue to help implement our vision.
Focusing our attention on how many hotel properties operate in Kamaole helps determine the type and amount of agricultural products necessary to be produced upcountry allowing the “Farm to Table” concept to be implemented. Upcountry producers can plan and deliver accordingly, based on real demand and predictable income.
