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.

I searched for an explicit owner-occupancy percentage and phrases such as 'majority owner occupied' or 'highly owner occupied.' The remarks provide no usable owner-occupancy value, so the percentage remains unknown.
I searched for an explicit elevator count such as '4 elevators,' 'four elevators,' or 'multiple elevators.' The remarks establish that elevators exist but provide no count, so the number remains unknown.

No listings explicitly mention common-area electricity, common electric, or building power being included. However, 10 of 19 current listings identify OTCOEX in the association fee inclusions, consistent with the prior high-confidence building-level determination, though the checkbox evidence may be copied across listings.

Hot water is the clearest feature in the remarks: multiple listings mention the building-wide hot water system being worked on, funded, and undergoing replacement. Combined with the MLS pattern (10/18 checked HOTWAT), this is strong evidence that hot water is included in the association fees.

Sixteen of 19 current listings include SEWER in the association fee data. Several independent remarks reference "DWV plumbing replacement," "waste drains," and building-wide infrastructure work, providing supporting context even though the remarks do not directly state "sewer included."
Water is included in the association fee data for 17 of 19 current listings, a strong building-wide pattern. Remarks discussing replacement of the "major central hot water system components" support the presence of a shared water-related system, although they do not specifically quote the fee inclusion.

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.

Storage is clearly a building feature at Ala Wai Cove. Multiple listings mention it directly, with roughly a dozen remarks referring to a "storage locker," "personal storage," or "additional storage" on the floor or near the laundry room, which strongly corroborates the MLS checkbox data. The consistency across many listings suggests this is a real shared building amenity, not a copy-paste error.
The remarks repeatedly reference personal storage lockers, storage closets, and storage near laundry rooms. I found no mention of surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, or bike and surfboard storage.
No analysis available
There are 0 public-remark mentions of any trash/garbage/refuse chute in the provided listings. Although 10/18 current MLS records show TRACHU, the absence of any supporting remarks across multiple listings suggests the amenity is likely not present or was entered in error.

The remarks do not mention a swimming pool or salt-water system. I searched for terms including “salt water pool,” “saltwater pool,” “salt pool,” and “saline pool,” but found no evidence.
No analysis available
Community/shared laundry is explicitly mentioned in at least 10 current listings, with consistent descriptions across multiple remarks. Key phrases include 'laundry facilities on each floor,' 'coin operated washer & dryer on each floor,' 'community laundry is on the same floor,' and 'community laundry with washer, dryer and deep sink across from the elevator.' The evidence strongly confirms a building-wide shared laundry amenity rather than isolated copy-paste checkbox use.
The coin-operated laundry wording is direct evidence of paid community laundry. Other listings also confirm laundry on every floor.
The remarks repeatedly confirm floor-by-floor community laundry facilities. This is directly supported across multiple listings.
All 17 current MLS listings include parking features (OPEN/COVER/GARAGE/ASSIGN) and the public remarks repeatedly reference parking: 'dedicated parking stall', 'one full-size assigned parking stall', and 'secure covered parking'. Evidence is strong across multiple listings and agents, indicating the building offers parking.
Assigned parking is strongly supported across the listing set, with at least 10 remarks explicitly describing assigned, reserved, dedicated, or deeded parking. The repeated wording appears across multiple listings and agents, and it aligns with the current MLS data showing 15/19 listings marked ASSIGN.
Covered parking is confirmed by at least 8 current remarks, with several explicitly identifying covered assigned stalls or secure covered parking. This is consistent with current MLS data showing 12/19 listings marked with covered or garage-related parking types, providing strong building-level evidence.
The remarks provide strong evidence that at least some units have deeded parking, including the explicit phrase "deeded parking stall." Multiple listings consistently confirm parking is associated with the units, although not every listing specifies deeded ownership.
No analysis available
Multiple listings indicate that parking is associated with the units, generally as assigned or covered stalls. However, no explicit monthly parking fee was provided, so the fee is unknown.

The remarks repeatedly describe assigned, covered, reserved, or deeded parking stalls. They do not mention limited parking availability or a building parking waitlist.
No analysis available
Multiple listings describe a “secure lobby with an intercom system,” but none mention key card access, fob access, card readers, or electronic keycard entry. Therefore, the public remarks do not establish a card-based security system.
No analysis available
The listings use terms such as “secure building” and describe an intercom-equipped lobby, but they do not mention security patrols, roving security, patrol service, or a patrolled building. There is no public-remarks evidence of security patrol service.

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 construction is supported by 17 of 18 current MLS listings, indicating consistent reporting across the building rather than a single agent entry. None of the supplied public remarks explicitly uses phrases such as “concrete construction” or “reinforced concrete,” but there is no contradictory evidence and the historical confidence is High.
Moderate evidence for double-wall construction: 10/17 current MLS records list double-wall (DOUWAL), consistent with prior medium-confidence data. No public remarks explicitly describe 'double wall', so inclusion is based on repeated MLS checkbox usage across multiple listings rather than direct agent descriptions.
Moderate/limited evidence that some units/building include hollow tile: 4/16 current MLS listings report HOLTIL, matching prior medium-confidence records. No public remarks mention hollow tile and the distribution is sparse, so inclusion is cautious—buyers should verify unit-level construction if important.
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.

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 the property as a residential condominium and discuss pets, parking, amenities, and location without addressing short-term rental rules. No public evidence establishes that STRs are permitted.
The public remarks contain no evidence that the building participates in a hotel rental pool. Because STR permission is not established, this feature is false under the prerequisite rule.
The remarks do not describe any hotel rental program, whether optional or mandatory. Since STR permission and hotel-pool participation are not established, mandatory pool participation is false.

The remarks do not identify the building as leasehold or provide a four-digit lease-expiry year. No renewal or lease-extension date was found.
The public remarks discuss the units, assessments, parking, amenities, and location but do not address VA loan eligibility. No evidence was found confirming or denying VA approval.
I searched the public remarks for wording indicating that the building is fully insured or has walls-in coverage. No insurance information was found, so this feature is not supported by the available remarks.
No analysis available
I searched for language such as FLSE passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, or passed fire inspection. The remarks instead describe ongoing or planned fire/life safety improvements, with no evidence of a passed evaluation.

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.'
At least 6 of 19 current listings mention mountain-related views, including “mountain views,” “stunning views of Diamond Head,” “unobstructed views of ... Diamond Head,” and “beautiful Diamond Head.” The repeated Diamond Head references across multiple listings and the previously high-confidence historical evidence strongly support that the building offers mountain views.
Strong evidence across multiple listings: Diamond Head is mentioned explicitly in many unit remarks (current MLS: 8/17). Phrases include 'unobstructed views of Diamond Head' and 'views of Diamond Head', appearing in listings from different agents, supporting high confidence that the building offers Diamond Head views.
At least 15 of 19 current listings mention city-related views, including “Waikiki skyline,” “city skyline sparkles,” “city skyline adorned with twinkling lights,” and “view the city skyline and twinkling city lights.” This is strong, consistent evidence across numerous listings and confirms the previously high-confidence building feature.
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.
Moderate evidence: a subset of listings (current MLS: 3/17) explicitly mention 'Ala Wai Golf Course' or nearby golf course views. This indicates some units have golf course views, though mentions are limited so confidence is moderate.
Strong evidence that the building offers canal/harbor views: numerous listings mention 'Ala Wai Canal', 'Ala Wai Park' and 'ocean beyond' (current MLS: 8/17). Multiple agents reference the canal/harbor views, supporting high confidence.
Limited/implied evidence: a few listings (current MLS: 2/17) imply morning/eastern exposure with phrases like 'morning to evening' and 'morning coffee'. Explicit 'sunrise' mentions are sparse, so inclusion is on a low-to-moderate confidence basis.
Strong evidence: multiple listings (current MLS: 6/17) explicitly mention sunset/evening views and related features ('winding down at sunset', 'gorgeous sunset colors', 'Friday night fireworks'), supporting high confidence that sunset views are available from building units.
No analysis available
The remarks explicitly describe Friday night fireworks being visible from unit lanais. This satisfies the requirement for a fireworks view from the building.

RESMAN appears in 16 of 19 current listings, indicating that the building likely has a resident manager. No public remarks explicitly use phrases such as “resident manager,” “on-site manager,” or “live-in manager,” so the evidence is primarily MLS amenity data and may partly reflect copied checkbox information.
