Discover Kai Ani Village: Coastal Living in the Heart of Kihei

Tucked into the heart of Kihei, Kai Ani Village offers something a little different: a thoughtfully designed residential community with a neighborhood feel, resort-style amenities, and an exceptionally convenient central Kihei location.

Located near South Kihei Road and Lipoa Street, Kai Ani Village is approximately a block from the ocean. Beaches and shoreline access are just across South Kihei Road, while grocery stores, cafés, restaurants, fitness facilities, banks, the post office, Ace Hardware, and other everyday services are all concentrated nearby.

Add the neighboring Lā‘ie Wetlands, tropical landscaping, a variety of two- and three-bedroom residences, private garages with select units, and unique live/work condominiums, and Kai Ani Village has a combination of features you don't find in every Kihei community.

A Central Kihei Location Close to the Coast

Location is one of the biggest advantages of Kai Ani Village.

The community sits just off South Kihei Road, close enough to the coast that the ocean is approximately a block away, yet positioned near many of the conveniences people use every day.

This part of Kihei has a particularly high concentration of shopping, dining, fitness, banking, professional services, and other businesses. The Village Shops at Kai Ani along South Kihei Road and Lipoa Street add another dimension to the community, integrating commercial spaces into the overall development.

On the other side of the property, the Lā‘ie Wetlands provide a natural contrast to the activity of central Kihei.

For homeowners who value being close to both the coast and everyday conveniences, the location is one of Kai Ani Village's most distinctive features.

Residences at Kai Ani Village

Kai Ani Village includes a variety of two- and three-bedroom residences arranged throughout multiple low-rise buildings.

Rather than one large condominium building, the community was designed with residences, landscaping, internal streets, pathways, parking areas, and recreation spaces spread throughout the property. The result is the village-style setting reflected in its name.

There are seven floor-plan types: Hoku, Mahina, Lani, Nui, Kala, Mana, and Pono, providing buyers with a range of layouts to consider.

Some residences include private garages, while parking configurations and unit locations vary throughout the development. That's one reason the Kai Ani Village site plans can be especially helpful when comparing properties.

A Unique Live/Work Component

One feature that distinguishes Kai Ani Village from many other Kihei condominium communities is its combination of traditional residential and designated live/work condominiums.

Under the current governing documents, designated live/work units are located in Buildings 3 and 4, where permitted commercial activity is allowed in designated spaces.

This mixed-use element is also reflected in the Village Shops at Kai Ani and contributes to the community's distinctive character. The live/work spaces bring an added layer of convenience and personality to Kai Ani Village. Today, they’re home to an interesting mix of local businesses and services, including a café, barber, chiropractic and medical services, spa services, cell phone repair, and an antique shop. This mix of residential and commercial spaces gives Kai Ani Village a distinctive neighborhood feel and adds to the everyday convenience of its central Kihei location.

Buyers interested in a live/work residence should review the current condominium documents carefully to understand permitted uses and restrictions.

Pool, Spa & Community Amenities

At the heart of Kai Ani Village is its recreation area, surrounded by tropical landscaping.

The community amenities include an infinity-edge swimming pool, spa, shaded cabanas, barbecue areas, and clubhouse pavilion, creating an inviting outdoor gathering space for residents and their guests.

Kai Ani Village also provides a designated resident car-wash area.

Is Kai Ani Village Pet Friendly?

Yes, Kai Ani Village currently permits household pets, subject to Association rules.

Under the House Rules revised May 9, 2025, up to two generally recognized household pets are permitted per unit, excluding fish from the numerical limitation. The rules currently establish a maximum combined adult weight of 65 pounds and require pets to be registered with the managing agent. Dogs must be leashed on common elements.

Pet policies can change, so buyers should always verify the current rules and requirements for their particular pets during due diligence.

Parking at Kai Ani Village

Parking varies depending upon the residence.

Current rules require occupants to park in their assigned garage and assigned parking stall or stalls. Kai Ani Village also provides designated visitor parking, which is subject to time limitations and other Association rules.

The site plans above are particularly useful for understanding the relationship between individual residences, garages, assigned parking areas, visitor parking, and the rest of the community.

Kai Ani Village and Environmentally Conscious Design

Environmental considerations were part of the original vision for Kai Ani Village, with the development intended to incorporate environmentally conscious elements into its design.

Its landscaped grounds and location alongside the Lā‘ie Wetlands remain notable aspects of the community today.

Because individual residences may have been modified or upgraded over the years, buyers interested in specific energy-efficient or environmentally conscious features should verify the features of the particular property they are considering.

What Buyers Should Know About Kai Ani Village

Beyond the location and amenities, Kai Ani Village has some characteristics worth understanding when comparing it with other Kihei condominiums.

There are multiple two- and three-bedroom layouts, some residences have private garages, and the community includes both residential and designated live/work units. It also has a pool and spa, barbecue and recreation areas, assigned parking, visitor parking, and current rules allowing pets subject to restrictions.

As with any condominium purchase on Maui, buyers should review the current Declaration, Bylaws, House Rules, financial statements, reserve information, insurance information, maintenance fees, parking assignments, and other condominium documents during due diligence.

Association rules and fees can change, so information on this page should be considered a general introduction rather than a substitute for reviewing the current condominium documents.
