Maui is set to ban most legal short-term rentals, impacting over 7,000 properties, as part of efforts to address the housing market issues caused by short-term rental speculation and locals being pushed out. This legislative move follows similar actions in other locations, such as Long Beach and Lake Tahoe, where residents have pushed for restrictions on platforms like Airbnb due to various community concerns including drug-fueled parties and incidents like shootings. In Kauai, a significant reduction in illegal short-term rentals was achieved by prohibiting Airbnb from listing them, decreasing the number from 1,700 to less than 50.
