Hawaii continues to restrict vacation rentals

[Nathan Gesner]

I said it years ago and I'll say it again: Hawaii is not a good place to invest in short-term rentals. They claim it has to do with the housing crisis, but I suspect they're being pushed by the hotels and resorts.

I visited Hawaii in July 2021. At that time, they had a law stating vacation rentals could only have one guest per month. I stayed July 21 - August 4th and I know there was a guest right before me and another coming after me. Now Hawaii is restricting short-term stays to 90 days or more!
