HOA (Utah HOA Registry)
As of 2026-11-13, I found no entry in the Utah Department of Commerce HOA Registry with an Ivins location whose name matches Kwavasa (Kayenta). That does not mean there is no HOA or no CC&Rs; ask the title company or listing agent for recorded covenants. Search the registry yourself.
Recorded plats

Short-term rentals
Ivins City regulates short-term (nightly) rentals citywide, not HOA by HOA. Under Ivins City Code 16.12.123, stays of fewer than 30 days are not allowed in residential zones except for a licensed bed and breakfast or the RC mixed-use overlay, and the short-term rental overlay (16.07.802) applies only where it was vested under Ordinance 2015-04. Zoning is set parcel by parcel, so confirm a specific lot with the city before you rely on it. HOA covenants (CC&Rs) can be stricter than city code.
