Vacation Internationale Kihei Kai Nani

The Resort & Its Setting

Vacation Internationale Kihei Kai Nani is an independent timeshare resort with RCI affiliation, located in Kihei on Maui's leeward south-west coast. This stretch of coastline is known for consistent sunshine and calm, south-facing waters, which is part of why Kihei has long been a popular base for repeat Maui visitors. Owning here gives members a fixed annual week in a well-established Hawaiian beach town, with the added option of trading through RCI to other resorts worldwide whenever owners fancy a change of scenery instead of a Maui stay.

Kihei and the Surrounding Area

Kihei itself is a laid-back, walkable town with everyday conveniences close by — Kihei Town Center, roughly half a kilometre from the resort, has casual restaurants, local eateries, gift shops and convenience stores. Beyond the town, Maui's south shore is where most visitors spend their time: Ma'alaea Bay (about 6 km away) is a sheltered spot for swimming, snorkelling and winter whale watching, while Wailea Beach and the wider Wailea Resort area (8–9 km south) add upscale dining, shopping and championship golf to the mix. Keen snorkellers and divers often make the boat trip out to Molokini Crater, a crescent-shaped volcanic crater around 12 km offshore known for clear water and abundant marine life. For a longer day out, Haleakala National Park is about 45 km away and well worth the drive for its volcanic crater, hiking trails and sunrise views.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Vacation Internationale Kihei Kai Nani and are ready to move on, or simply want to rent it out for a season, BidMyTimeshare.com is a straightforward owner-to-owner marketplace: there's no bidding against a resort-run resale programme, you set your own asking price, and buyers or renters contact you directly through the listing. Sellers pay a one-time listing fee to post their week, and BidMyTimeshare charges 0% commission on the sale itself — the price you agree with a buyer is the price you keep, less that listing fee.

Because this is an independent resort, resale transfers go through the resort's own owners' association or its management company rather than a branded developer programme. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, it's worth asking the association or management office directly for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee, since these vary by unit and aren't published figures we can quote here. It's also sensible to confirm in writing exactly what transfers with the week — the usage rights and RCI affiliation status in particular — so a buyer knows precisely what they're purchasing before any money changes hands.

What Renters and Buyers Typically Look For

Renters searching for a week at this resort are usually after confirmed dates in Kihei, proximity to the beach and town amenities, and a straightforward booking process with the current owner. Buyers tend to ask about the annual maintenance fee, what week or season is attached to the unit, and whether the RCI affiliation is active and transferable, since that exchange option is often part of the appeal for owners who don't want to return to Maui every single year.

Practical Notes for Owners

Listing accurately matters: note the unit size, the week or season, and whether usage is fixed or floating, as this affects both resale value and rental interest. If you're unsure of the current annual fee or transfer fee, your resort's owners' association or management office is the right first call — have that information ready before listing, since buyers and renters will ask for it early in the conversation.
