History of Kepuhi Beach Resort
The Louisiana Land Corporation started Kaluakoi in 1977. Of the 300 units on property, 150 belonged to the hotel and 148 units (ours) were privately owned but still operated by the hotel. Sheraton very successfully managed the hotel for the first 10 years. Tokyo Kosan then bought the hotel and Colony Hotels ran the day-to-day operation. The hotel began to go down hill. At this time, some of the private units formed their own rental pool called “The Villas”. Tokyo Kosan was unsuccessful in running the business and the complex fell into disarray. The hotel closed, as well as the restaurant and golf course. Most of the jobs on the west end were lost. The 148 private units continued to operate, some with “The Villas” and others on their own. In 2002 Molokai Ranch bought the property and has since upgraded some of the infrastructure. As an Association, we have a cross easement with the Ranch to use their pool and other agreements for electricity, water, and other fixed costs.
In 2004 the 140-room Kaluakoi Hotel and Golf Course was closed by Japanese owners who’d taken over from Sheraton. The abandoned property sits not far from our condo. Although it's abandoned, there are no squatters occupying the space. We have 24 hour security.
