Aloha and welcome to the new Kapalua Resort Association Website!Since this website for the Kapalua Resort Association members is new, it's important to know that it's YOUR website. It is our hope that you find it interesting, informative and perhaps a bit fun. Without a doubt, the Kapalua Resort is a special place. Indeed, this wonderful resort offers something special at every winding turn in the road; or gentle step to the beach; or panoramic view to the mountain. We're blessed with an abundance of natural resources and exceptional views and vistas. But, more importantly, we're a collection of varied individuals and entities that we call the KRA. What exactly is the Kapalua Resort Association? In a nutshell, it's the master resort community association that includes you. The 1650 acre, master-planned resort is home to ten exclusive residential communities comprised of stunning, single family homes, dramatic homesites and premier condominium villas. Each individual owner of property in the Kapalua Resort is a member of KRA. Additionally, The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua, the Maui Land & Pineapple Company, as well as some commercial entities are also members of KRA. But, the focus of this newsletter is clearly centered on you, the individual member. In the past, there has been some confusion as to exactly what the KRA does for the membership. After all, what, you may ask, are the benefits of being a member of the KRA? Condensed to its simplest duties, the KRA is tasked with the responsibility of maintaining and protecting the common elements. Additionally, with permission from our founding documents, the board of directors also contracts for security and shuttle services. Naturally, there are other duties as well; from strategic planning to caretaking financial matters of the association. But clearly, although the duties for the association include much more than previously mentioned, we are also mindful of the fact that we are a community. Some might even say that one of our most important duties is to build and maintain a community with a sense of place. With that charge in mind, please feel free pass along any suggestions you may have with your website. As always, we're just an email away. The Kapalua Resort is one of the leading residential resort communities in the nation: if not the world. The great climate, topography, meticulous long-term planning, award winning beaches, fantastic amenities, and its effective Community Association all contribute to this belief. We welcome your interest and participation in the Kapalua Resort Association. |
