Maui Businesses are Suffering from Storm Damage... But the Beach Is Perfect !!!

South Kihei Road Repair Update: (Kihei, Maui 2026) Kama'ole Beach Still Open & Stunning... S. Kihei Road in front of Kama'ole Beach Park II has been closed for repairs since a sinkhole collapsed the roadway during the March 2026 Kona Low storms. In this video, I walk the Kama'ole I and II beaches right next to the construction zone to show what's really going on — and why South Kihei is still one of the best places on Maui to stay, eat, and shop right now.

Repairs began June 1, 2026 with P.B. Sullivan Construction, and Maui County expects the project to wrap by the end of August 2026. The road closes to through traffic weekdays and Saturdays from 7am–3:30pm; all businesses and residences remain fully accessible. Why this video matters: Local South Kihei businesses and short-term rentals have reported a real drop in foot traffic due to the closure and recent press coverage — but Kama'ole I and II beaches are open, uncrowded, and as beautiful as ever. If you're planning a Maui trip, this is a firsthand look at what to expect and why you shouldn't cross South Kihei off your list.
