Ala Wai Cove
Preliminary Information – Full Audit Pending
This buildings features were determined from publicly available data, including MLS listings. While we cross-referenced additional data sources, it still likely contains incomplete or inaccurate information, as it has not yet been personally verified.
Once a building has been fully audited, this page will be replaced with an in-depth analysis featuring verified details and photos of every key feature.
Until then, we provide a data‑driven overview that blends statistical analysis of the checkbox selections agents make in MLS with an AI‑powered read of their public remarks—yielding a clearer picture of the building than raw listings alone.
If this building is important to your search, you can help prioritize it for a full audit by requesting one below. To see what a complete report looks like, check out the example full report.

MLS floor fields and unit numbers agree through floor 10, including penthouse units 1003 and 1006; county and state records also report 10 floors.
County records report 77 reconciled residential units, and the single-building state registration independently reports 77; the county dwell sum of 78 is set aside.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 330. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The remarks establish that Ala Wai Cove has at least one elevator. No explicit number such as '4 elevators,' 'four elevators,' or 'multiple elevators' was found, so the total cannot be determined.
Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

No public remarks explicitly mention common-area electricity, common electric, or building power being included. However, 11 of 20 current listings contain OTCOEX in the association-fee inclusions, consistent with the previously high-confidence building-level record.

Hot water is supported by multiple remarks describing the building's central or building-wide hot water system, including phrases such as "replacement of major central hot water system components" and "building is starting work on hot water." The evidence is corroborated by 11 of 20 MLS records listing HOTWAT and 0 of 20 listing WTRHTR.

No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly supported by 17 of 20 current MLS records. Multiple remarks reference "DWV plumbing replacement" and work on "waste drains," providing independent confirmation of the building's sewer/plumbing infrastructure program.
Water is included in 18 of 20 current association-fee records, an exceptionally strong building-wide pattern. Remarks discussing funded building-wide plumbing replacement and related infrastructure work are consistent with, though do not independently quote, water being included.

Across the provided listings, there are 0 public-remark mentions of a car wash or similar facility. The only evidence is the inconsistent MLS amenity flag (8/18 current records), which is not reinforced by agent remarks and therefore looks unreliable.

At least 18 of the 20 listings mention an outdoor space, most commonly using phrases such as "spacious 93 sq. ft. lanai," "private lanai," "large covered lanai," "balcony," or "253 sq ft courtyard." The repeated descriptions across many listings and unit types strongly confirm the feature; the low 2/20 checkbox rate appears to reflect incomplete or inconsistently entered MLS amenities rather than absence of patios or lanais.

Storage is strongly confirmed across multiple Ala Wai Cove listings, with at least a dozen remarks using phrases such as "personal storage," "dedicated storage lockers," "storage locker," and "additional storage closet in the laundry room." The consistency across numerous listings and the matching MLS amenity/unit-feature data indicate a legitimate building feature rather than isolated agent copy-paste.
The listings confirm general storage facilities but do not specifically identify surfboard storage. Searches for surfboard, board storage, and surf storage found no qualifying mentions.
No analysis available
None of the 20 listings mention a trash chute or use phrases such as “garbage chute” or “refuse chute.” Although 11/20 current MLS records include TRACHU, the lack of confirmation across multiple agents makes the evidence weak and potentially copy-pasted.

Searches for pool references and salt-water terms such as "salt water pool," "saltwater pool," "salt pool," and "saline pool" found no evidence. The current building context also indicates no pool.
No analysis available
Community/shared laundry is strongly supported across the listings, with at least 10 remarks explicitly mentioning laundry rooms, facilities, or coin-operated washers and dryers; several specify that laundry is located on each floor or on the same floor as the unit. This confirms the historically high-confidence feature and is consistent across multiple listing descriptions rather than relying only on an MLS checkbox.
The coin-operated description directly confirms paid laundry. Other remarks corroborate shared laundry facilities throughout the building.
Public remarks repeatedly confirm floor-by-floor community laundry facilities. This is direct, consistent evidence across multiple listings.
Parking is explicitly mentioned in at least 15 of the provided listings, with multiple agents describing assigned or reserved stalls. The evidence is strong across the building and is consistent with the current MLS data showing parking features in all 20 listings.
Assigned parking is strongly confirmed across multiple listings and agents, with at least 10 remarks explicitly describing assigned, reserved, dedicated, or deeded parking. The repeated detailed descriptions indicate a legitimate building feature rather than isolated checkbox or copy-paste errors.
Covered parking is explicitly mentioned in approximately 10 or more listings from multiple agents, including assigned covered stalls and secure covered parking. This corroborates the current MLS data, where 11 of 20 listings contain covered or garage parking designations.
The explicit reference to a “deeded parking stall” confirms that at least some units have deeded parking. Other listings consistently describe assigned or covered parking, supporting this feature for the building, although not every stall is necessarily deeded.
No analysis available
The listings repeatedly describe assigned, covered, reserved, or deeded parking. They do not state that owners pay a separate monthly parking fee.

The remarks generally describe parking as included with or assigned to the units. No evidence was found of limited parking availability or a building parking waitlist.
No analysis available
The listings repeatedly describe intercom-equipped secure lobbies. No public remark confirms card or fob access, so this feature is unsupported.
No analysis available
Listings use general terms such as "secure building" and describe lobby intercoms, but they do not identify any security patrol service. There is no evidence supporting this feature.

At least one listing's public remarks explicitly state "split AC’s" and 2 of 15 current MLS listings have ACSPL in inclusions. Another remark references a window A/C, suggesting some units may have different systems, but explicit split-system language plus MLS checkbox entries indicates some units in the building have ductless/mini-split A/C.
No analysis available
Concrete is reported in 19 of 20 current MLS listings, indicating strong, consistent building-level evidence across multiple listings. Public remarks do not explicitly quote concrete construction, but the near-universal MLS reporting supports inclusion.
Eleven of 20 current MLS listings list DOUWAL, providing moderate support across multiple listings. Public remarks contain no explicit “double wall” or “two walls” description, so confidence is below the level of the concrete evidence.
Five of 20 current listings report HOLTIL construction material, suggesting the feature may apply to the building despite limited coverage. No public remarks mention “hollow tile construction,” so the evidence is moderate and may partly reflect copied MLS data.
Minimal MLS indication of masonry/stucco (2/17 listings) with no public-remarks confirmation. Without supporting descriptions or historical evidence, masonry and stucco construction is unlikely for the building.
No analysis available
Concrete slab is reported in only 2 of 20 current listings, with no supporting remarks such as “concrete slab” or “solid concrete foundation.” The feature appears to be isolated MLS checkbox data rather than a consistently documented building characteristic, so it is omitted.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Partial evidence that the building/units are listed as above-ground: 6/16 current MLS records include ABOGRO and prior records had similar medium confidence. No public remarks describe above-ground materials explicitly, so the indication comes mainly from multiple MLS entries and should be verified if critical to a buyer.
Very limited MLS support for brick construction (1/17 listings) and no remarks describing brick or brick exterior. Given the lack of corroborating remarks and minimal checkbox frequency, brick construction is unlikely and treated as absent.
No analysis available
The listings describe residential condominium units but do not address short-term rental permissions. No evidence was found that STR use is allowed.
The remarks contain no evidence of participation in a hotel rental pool or hotel-operated rental program. Because short-term-rental permission is not established, this feature is false.
The listings do not describe any hotel rental program, either optional or mandatory. Because STR permission and hotel-pool participation are not established, mandatory participation is false.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The remarks do not identify the building as leasehold or provide a four-digit lease-expiry year. No lease extension or renewal date was found.
The listings discuss renovations, assessments, parking, amenities, and location but do not address VA loan eligibility. No evidence was found confirming or denying VA approval.
I searched for references to the building being fully insured, fully covered, comprehensively insured, or having walls-in coverage. No insurance information was found in the public remarks.
No analysis available
The remarks describe fire-safety work and ongoing or recently completed improvements rather than a passed fire/life safety evaluation. No wording such as 'FLSE passed,' 'fire safety certified,' or 'life safety compliant' was found.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Several listings explicitly state 'ocean' views, such as 'the ocean beyond,' 'Diamond Head, ocean, and city views,' and 'views of Waikiki, the Ala Wai and the ocean.'
Mountain-related views appear in 7 of 20 current listings, including the phrase 'mountain views.' This is consistent with the previously high-confidence assessment and indicates the building offers mountain-view units.
Diamond Head is mentioned in 9 of 20 current listings, with repeated detailed descriptions such as 'unobstructed views of Diamond Head' and 'sweeping Diamond Head' views. The evidence is strong across multiple listings and confirms this building feature.
City-related views are reported in 16 of 20 current listings. Key phrases include 'Waikiki skyline,' 'city skyline adorned with twinkling lights,' and 'city views,' providing strong confirmation across multiple agents.
1 of 14 MLS records lists COASTL, and several units see the ocean and canal, which often includes shoreline; no listing contradicts coastline visibility.
Moderate evidence: a couple of listings (current MLS: 2/17) and remarks reference 'public garden', 'community garden' or nearby landscaped areas. Some units or the immediate surroundings offer garden/courtyard views, warranting inclusion with moderate confidence.
Golf-course views are identified in 4 of 20 current listings. Explicit wording includes 'views of ... Ala Wai Golf Course' and 'unobstructed views of ... Ala Wai Golf Course,' which is sufficient to retain this feature despite its lower frequency.
Canal and harbor-related views appear in 9 of 20 current listings, with repeated references to the 'Ala Wai Canal' and 'canal views.' These remarks support including marina/harbor views as a building-level offering.
Sunrise or morning-oriented exposure appears in 3 of 20 current listings, including references to enjoying 'morning coffee' and views extending 'from morning to evening.' Evidence is limited and mostly implied, so confidence remains moderate.
Sunset views are mentioned in 7 of 20 current listings. Repeated explicit phrases such as 'breathtaking sunset hues' and 'gorgeous sunset colors' provide strong confirmation across multiple listings.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly describe Friday night fireworks visible from unit lanais. This satisfies the requirement for a fireworks view from the building.

The resident-manager amenity appears in 17 of 20 current MLS listings, indicating broad agreement across listings. Public remarks mention secure lobbies, laundry, storage, and building improvements but do not explicitly describe a resident manager; the checkbox evidence may partly reflect copied MLS data.

Confidence levels are based on MLS checkbox data and AI analysis of listing remarks. High = strong evidence, Medium = some evidence, Low = limited or conflicting evidence. Buyers should always verify critical details independently.
