Ala Wai Townhouse

All available MLS records for this building consistently report a 1973 construction year. No remarks suggest a different build or full rebuild date, so 1973 is accepted as the year built.

The highest unit floor reported in MLS data is 20, and no remarks reference any higher stories or additional towers. A penthouse listing plus the absence of higher floor numbers strongly indicates a 20‑story building.

No listing remarks state how many units are in the building (such as '109‑unit building' or similar). Without explicit references, the total unit count cannot be determined from the available data.

I searched for specific figures (e.g., '80% owner occupied') and phrases like 'majority owner occupied' or 'highly owner occupied' but found none. With no explicit data in the remarks to confirm or contradict, the existing owner-occupancy value of 43% is kept.

Remarks confirm that the building has secured elevators (e.g., 'keyed elevator', 'keyed entry and elevators') but never specify how many. With no explicit count in the remarks, the existing value of 2 elevators is retained as it is plausible for a 20-story, 100-unit building.

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 listing checks central A/C in the fee-includes section, and the remarks emphasize natural breezes and lanais rather than central cooling systems. This strongly indicates that central air conditioning is not a building-supplied service included in the maintenance fee.

Across the building, a majority of listings (11/20) mark cable TV as included in the maintenance/association fee, with no remarks stating that cable is excluded or separately billed. This pattern across many different listings and agents suggests cable is a standard included utility for the building.

Nearly half the listings (9/20) explicitly include other common expenses in the fee, aligning with remarks describing common-area amenities like keyed elevators, pool, and surfboard/bike storage that require building power. The consistency of OTCOEX across multiple listings supports that common area electricity is covered by the maintenance fee.

No listing indicates cooperative taxes in the HOA, and the property is consistently described as a leasehold/fee simple condo, not a co-op. This makes it clear that cooperative taxes are not included in the maintenance fees.

None of the listings mark electricity as included in the maintenance fee, and remarks never call out electric as a bundled utility despite noting in-unit laundry and appliances. This strongly suggests electricity is separately metered and not part of the HOA dues.

No MLS record indicates gas in the association fee, and the remarks are silent on gas usage or systems. This strongly indicates that gas is not provided by the building or included in the maintenance fees.

MLS data shows a small minority of units (3/20) marked with hot water included, but a larger group (7/20) explicitly note in-unit water heaters, which typically means hot water is individually provided rather than a common building utility. Public remarks never mention hot water being included in maintenance, reinforcing that this is likely not a fee-covered service.

A small minority of agents checked internet as included, but most did not, and none of the public remarks highlight internet being part of the maintenance fee. This pattern strongly suggests that internet is not a standard association-included utility and that a few entries are likely copy/paste or checkbox mistakes.

No MLS data or remarks indicate any marina-related amenities or fees being part of the HOA. The building fronts the canal but does not present itself as a marina property, so marina fees are not included in the maintenance costs.

Most listings (16/20) explicitly show sewer as part of the association/maintenance fee, with this pattern repeated across different units and agents. The absence of any contrary remarks supports that sewer service is reliably included in the building’s maintenance fees.

Water is marked as included in the fee on the large majority of listings (16/20), suggesting it is a standard building-wide inclusion rather than a unit-specific anomaly. The consistency of this checkbox data, combined with no remarks about separate water billing, indicates that domestic water is covered by the maintenance fee.

Agents repeatedly describe the pool, security, pet-friendliness, and storage but never refer to any BBQ or grill facilities. With no MLS checkboxes or textual mentions, a BBQ area is very unlikely.

Two listings explicitly note board/bike storage, including the phrase 'Amenities include a pool (newly renovated), surfboard & bicycle storage,' which clearly indicates a dedicated area for bicycles. Another listing mentions 'surf board storage' in the amenity list, supporting the existence of a shared storage room or racks for surfboards and bikes. Multiple independent remarks override the absence of the MLS checkbox and support including bike storage as a building feature.

Water and golf-course views are used as selling points, but there is no suggestion of actual dock or marina facilities. Given how prominently such an amenity would be marketed, and its absence from MLS data, a boat dock almost certainly does not exist.

Parking is repeatedly described (covered, outside, rooftop distinctions) but never a car wash facility. The strong majority of MLS entries omit CRWSH, suggesting the few positive checks are likely agent error and that no dedicated car wash exists.

Agents consistently market building security, pet-friendliness, and the pool but never mention a clubhouse. The complete lack of MLS or textual evidence indicates no clubhouse amenity.

Agents consistently describe the building as secure and well-managed with a resident/on-site manager, but no listing advertises concierge or front-desk services. In a market where concierge is a selling point and would be mentioned, this absence plus the unchecked MLS field strongly indicates there is no concierge service.

Pet-friendliness and security are emphasized, but there is no reference to a dedicated dog park or pet exercise area. With no MLS indication, a dog park likely does not exist.

Remarks highlight an 'on-site manager' or 'Resident manager on premises' but never a doorman or lobby attendant. Given the detailed security descriptions and the complete absence of any 'doorman' language, it is very likely the building does not offer doorman service. Buyers seeking a doorman would not find evidence for one here.

There are no references to an exercise room, gym, or fitness center in any of the remarks. With 0 of 20 listings checking EXEROO in amenities, it is very likely this building does not offer a shared exercise facility.

This mid-market Waikiki building is marketed around flexibility and location, not luxury chauffeur services. With no textual or MLS evidence, limo or house-car service can be ruled out.

There is no indication of any shared meeting or conference facilities in marketing materials. With no MLS or remarks support, a meeting room is very unlikely.

Current remarks across many listings repeatedly mention lanais, including standard, covered, enclosed, and even a large rooftop lanai (e.g., '667 sq. ft. rooftop lanai', 'covered lanai has been seamlessly integrated', 'lanai to enjoy cool tradewinds'). These references appear in well over ten separate unit descriptions from different agents, indicating that lanais/deck-like outdoor spaces are a common feature of the building. Combined with prior high-confidence data, this strongly supports that the building offers patio/deck (lanai) amenities in at least some units.

The convenience of nearby urban amenities is highlighted, not an internal jogging or walking trail. With no MLS or text evidence, a dedicated jogging path is unlikely.

Agents market the pool and location near beaches and parks but never a children's playground on-site. The absence in both MLS data and remarks strongly suggests there is no playground amenity.

All outdoor areas are described as lanais or rooftop lanai spaces, with no references to yards or enclosed ground-level outdoor areas. Given the high-rise setting and zero mentions across many listings, the building is very unlikely to offer private yard space.

Although the building overlooks a golf course, no unit description refers to a practice putting green or similar facility. Combined with 0 MLS checkboxes, it is almost certain there is no putting green.

Remarks focus on proximity to beaches, shops, and the pool rather than any recreation deck or amenity area. With 0 MLS flags for RECARE, a shared recreation area is unlikely.

Agents highlight flexible layouts and a pool but never describe any rec or game room. The total absence in both remarks and MLS amenities suggests no dedicated recreation room exists.

Restaurants are consistently described as nearby, not within the building. The absence of any 'on-site dining' language and 0 MLS flags support that there is no in-building restaurant.

The only rooftop reference is an exclusive penthouse rooftop lanai, which per guidelines should not be treated as a building-wide amenity. With no mentions of a common roof deck and 0 MLS flags, a shared rooftop amenity is unlikely.

Even detailed amenity descriptions (pool, storage, keyed elevator, resident manager) omit any sauna or steam room. The complete lack of MLS or text support indicates there is no sauna.

No listings explicitly describe general storage lockers or extra storage for residents, and the MLS amenities never flag storage features. References are limited to surfboard-specific (and in one case surfboard & bicycle) storage, which appears to be a specialized rack/room rather than general storage units. Given the absence of any broader storage remarks, this building is not currently treated as offering general storage units.

Multiple listings explicitly mention surfboard storage as a building amenity, in some cases combined with bicycle storage. This direct, repeated evidence strongly confirms that surfboard storage is available.

None of the marketing remarks across many listings reference a tennis court or tennis facilities. Combined with 0 MLS checkboxes, this strongly indicates the building does not have tennis courts.

A strong majority of MLS entries (18 of 20) list a trash chute amenity, and one recent penthouse listing explicitly highlights a "private trash chute" in the unit. This direct mention, together with consistent checkbox data across many listings, provides strong evidence that the building has a trash chute system available.

Listings emphasize specific assigned parking stalls (covered, rooftop, or outside) rather than any staffed parking service. The complete absence of 'valet' references across all remarks strongly indicates the building does not offer valet service.

Listings focus on security via keyed entry, keyed elevators, and video cameras, but never reference a gated or fenced perimeter or walled enclosure. The lack of any 'gated' or 'fenced' language, together with MLS data, indicates the building does not have a notable wall/fence or gated-complex feature. Buyers seeking a gated or walled community would likely not consider this building to have that characteristic.

Agents call out the pool multiple times yet never reference any spa or hot tub, which would typically be highlighted. With 0 MLS checkmarks for WHIRLP, a whirlpool amenity is unlikely.

Multiple listings for Ala Wai Townhouse explicitly mention a shared pool amenity, including phrases like “Amenities include a pool (newly renovated), surfboard & bicycle storage,” “secure, well-managed, and pet-friendly building with a pool,” and “surf board storage, and a communal pool.” Combined with MLS checkbox data showing 19 of 20 listings indicating a pool, this confirms the building offers a communal swimming pool. Evidence is consistent across many listings and agents, indicating a reliable, long-term building feature.

Across all provided remarks, the pool is never described as heated, and MLS pool-feature fields for heating are unused (0/20). Given the consistent omission of any heating references while the pool itself is repeatedly noted, it is very likely the building’s pool is not heated.

I looked for phrases such as 'saltwater pool', 'salt water pool', 'saline pool', or 'salt pool' and found none. In the absence of any mention, the pool is assumed not to be saltwater.

Multiple listings for Ala Wai Townhouse explicitly describe in-unit laundry, including phrases like “in-unit washer and dryer,” “in-unit washer/dryer,” “new washer/dryer combo,” and “full kitchen and laundry.” Current MLS inclusions show 17 of 20 listings with washer/dryer checked, consistent with earlier data. This strongly indicates that some units in the building offer in-unit laundry, so buyers seeking this feature should consider this property.

Across all reviewed remarks, amenities such as pool, surfboard and bicycle storage, security, and keyed elevators are mentioned, but no listing references a shared laundry room, coin laundry, or laundry facilities on site. MLS amenity data likewise shows no community laundry flag on any of the 20 listings. This pattern indicates the building likely does not have dedicated community laundry facilities.

I looked for terms such as 'coin-op', 'coin laundry', 'card-operated', or 'paid laundry' and found no mentions. Since all laundry references are to in-unit washer/dryers, paid community laundry is unlikely.

I searched the remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'community laundry', or 'laundry room on every floor' and found none. All laundry references are to in-unit machines, so shared laundry on every floor appears unlikely.

Multiple listings explicitly mention parking, e.g., 'Parking stall 99 is a wide stall on the top floor of the parking garage,' '1 covered parking,' and '1 parking unit.' With 20/20 MLS entries indicating parking and numerous remarks confirming both garage and outside stalls, it is clear the building offers parking. Evidence comes from many different listings, not just a single agent’s copy-paste.

Multiple independent listings clearly describe assigned parking, including phrases like 'one assigned, covered parking space,' 'Assigned covered parking stall,' and mention of a specific stall number ('Parking stall 99'). Combined with 16/20 MLS records showing ASSIGN in parking_features and prior high confidence, this strongly confirms that parking in the building is assigned.

At least nine listings explicitly mention covered parking, including 'covered parking,' '1 covered parking,' 'Covered parking on the second floor,' and 'assigned, covered parking stall/space,' while other remarks reference a parking garage. Together with 16/20 MLS entries showing covered/garage indicators and earlier high confidence, this confirms the building provides covered parking.

Listings consistently describe each condo being sold with its own assigned parking stall included in the transaction. There is no mention of parking being rented separately or subject to a separate lease. This strongly suggests that parking is deeded/owned with the units rather than separately rented.

Across all reviewed listings, there are no references to EV charging stations or related amenities, and agents consistently leave the EVCHRG field unchecked. Given the number of independent listings and the absence of any textual mention, it is very likely the building does not currently offer EV charging.

I looked for phrases such as "parking fee," "monthly parking charge," or indications that parking costs extra, but found none. Parking is always described as an included assigned stall. Because no explicit monthly fee is stated, the presence or amount of any parking fee remains unknown.

None of the public remarks describe guest or visitor parking, and the GUEST checkbox is not used in any current MLS entries for this building. With multiple agents marketing the property without highlighting guest stalls, it is highly likely the building does not provide dedicated guest parking.

Remarks focus on building security—'secure, well-managed,' 'keyed entry to the lobby area and elevators,' and 'video security'—but do not describe gates or secure entry specifically for the parking area. Combined with the absence of the SECENT flag in MLS data, this strongly suggests the parking itself does not have a separate secured entry feature.

Listings consistently describe individual parking stalls and never mention 'tandem' or back-to-back configurations. With no TANDEM selections in the MLS and no textual evidence, it is very likely that tandem parking is not a feature of this building’s parking setup.

Across numerous listings, agents highlight features like the pool, security, flexible layouts, and assigned/covered stalls, but never mention valet parking or attendant services. The complete absence of the VALET code and any textual reference supports the conclusion that valet parking is not available at this building.

I searched for terms like "parking waitlist," "waiting list for parking," or similar language and found no references. Since parking appears to be directly assigned with units in the listings, it is reasonably likely there is no formal waitlist system in use.

At least four listings reference secure elevator access, using phrases like 'keyed elevator,' 'building security includes keyed entry and elevators,' and 'keyed entry to the lobby area and elevators.' These consistent, detailed descriptions from different agents confirm that elevator access is controlled by a key or similar system building-wide. This repeated remark evidence is much stronger than the unchecked MLS amenity field.

I searched for 'key card', 'keycard', 'fob', 'card access', and 'electronic access' and found only references to traditional keyed entry. This suggests the building does not use a card/fob access system.

Multiple listings describe the building as 'secure' or 'secured' and note an on-site/resident manager, but none mention a security guard or 24/7 security staff. Given 0/20 MLS checkboxes and the detailed security descriptions that omit any guard reference, this strongly indicates there is no staffed security-guard service. If a guard were present, Waikiki agents would typically advertise it.

I checked for terms like 'security patrol', 'roving security', 'patrolled building', or similar and found none. Security appears to rely on keyed access, cameras, and management rather than patrol services.

One listing states the building has 'video security,' and another notes that 'Building security includes keyed entry and elevators, security camera.' These differing but consistent phrasings across separate listings show the building is monitored by security cameras. The repetition across agents outweighs the unchecked MLS amenity box.

No listings (0/20) check any central AC-related MLS fields or mention central air/HVAC in remarks. Instead, several listings highlight tradewinds and breezes as the cooling source, indicating the building does not have a central air conditioning system.

Neither the MLS checkbox data nor any of the 20 sets of remarks mention split/ductless/mini-split AC. This consistent absence across many independently written listings supports that split AC is not a feature of this building’s units.

Window AC is checked in the MLS inclusions for 1 of 20 listings (ACWIUN), while remarks are silent about air conditioning overall. This suggests at least some units may have window AC, so the building is treated as offering window-unit AC with moderate but not strong confidence.

Across 17 of 20 current MLS listings for this building, agents explicitly select concrete (CONCRE) in the construction materials field, with no remarks indicating a different structural system. Multiple independent listings describe the building as well-managed and secure but never contradict the concrete designation, reinforcing that Ala Wai Townhouse is a concrete-constructed building. Given the consistency and volume of MLS data, concrete construction is supported with high confidence.

Most listings either mark only concrete or leave other materials blank, and only a minority select double wall with no supporting remarks. Given the concrete high-rise context, the building is unlikely to be categorized as double-wall construction.

No listing selects hollow tile and no remarks hint at hollow-tile walls. Given the high-rise condo context, hollow-tile construction is very unlikely here.

Despite many listings and detailed remarks, none describe masonry or stucco construction and the MLS checkboxes do not show MASSTU. With concrete already strongly indicated, masonry/stucco construction appears unlikely for this building.

All listings that indicate a material choose concrete and none select steel frame, and the building type/location strongly suggest reinforced concrete rather than structural steel. There is no remark-level evidence of steel framing.

At least one MLS entry identifies slab construction, and the building’s high-rise reinforced-concrete form strongly implies a concrete slab foundation. Even though most agents don’t check this box, physical construction norms support slab construction for this property.

No analysis available

No listings select wood frame construction, and the building is a high-rise in Waikiki where primary wood-frame structures are extremely unlikely. With MLS consensus on concrete and no textual hints of wood framing, wood frame can be ruled out.

A minority of agents selected the 'above ground' checkbox without any textual support, while the building type points to conventional high-rise concrete on a foundation. This makes it unlikely that 'above ground' is an accurate construction classification here.

One listing out of twenty indicates brick, but 17 indicate concrete and none of the public remarks mention brick or masonry facades. This pattern, combined with typical local building practice, strongly suggests the building is not brick construction.

There is no MLS or remark evidence of single-wall construction and the building type (high-rise condo) is fundamentally inconsistent with it. Single-wall construction can be confidently ruled out.

Public remarks clearly and repeatedly prohibit short-term rentals in this building. Given these explicit statements across several listings, short-term rentals are not allowed here. This aligns with prior information that STR activity is not permitted.

A building that bans short-term rentals cannot legally operate a hotel rental pool. The remarks also never reference any hotel management, rental pool, or hotel-brand program. Therefore, participation in a hotel rental pool does not exist in this building.

Because STRs are prohibited, there cannot be a mandatory hotel rental pool for units in this building. Listings emphasize flexible long-term use and do not reference any requirement to join a rental or hotel program. This strongly supports that no mandatory pool participation exists.

Multiple listings explain that owners can or do acquire the fee simple interest, such as 'Sellers in escrow for fee purchase' and 'Package sale includes both the Fee Simple interest and the Leasehold interest.' While most current offerings are leasehold, at least one listing already holds both interests and others reference completed fee purchases, confirming that fee simple units exist in this building.

At least 9 of the compiled listings clearly state the properties are leasehold, often in all caps ('LEASEHOLD Unit', 'This is a leasehold property') and reference lease details like 'lease till June 2029,' 'Fee expires in 2029,' and 'lease rent fixed at $108.16.' Most recent offerings are leasehold, with fee simple interests available or already purchased in some cases, so the building contains both leasehold and fee simple interests, but leasehold units are the majority.

Several leasehold listings consistently reference the ground lease ending in 2029, including a specific "lease till June2029" statement. No remarks mention any later extension or different expiry year. This reconfirms the previously known 2029 expiration with high confidence.

The explicit mention of a VA loan assumption for eligible buyers shows that at least one unit has VA financing, which typically requires VA condo approval. While the remarks do not use the exact phrase "VA approved building," this is moderate evidence that VA financing is supported here. Given prior low-confidence data, this new, clearer VA reference justifies marking the building as VA-financeable with medium confidence.

I looked for explicit references to the HOA carrying full or walls-in coverage, such as 'fully insured building', 'walls-in coverage', or 'comprehensive building insurance'. Since none of the remarks mention building insurance at all, this is marked false by default due to lack of evidence.

Across all provided listings, there are no references to fire sprinklers or a sprinkler system, and agents did not check a sprinkler amenity in MLS. Because silence is not definitive evidence either way, the presence of fire sprinklers cannot be determined from current information.

I searched for terms like 'fire life safety evaluation', 'FLSE', 'passed fire inspection', 'fire safety certified', and similar language, but found no references. In the absence of any mention, this field is set to false, as buildings that have passed such evaluations typically highlight it.

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

Multiple data points confirm ocean views are available in this building. A high-floor listing explicitly advertises 'stunning ocean, mountain and city views,' and MLS view_descriptions include OCEAN for 1 of 20 listings with none marked as having no view. Even if limited to higher floors, this is enough for buyers specifically seeking ocean-view options in the building.

Mountain views are heavily and consistently advertised across many listings, with phrases like 'breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains,' 'Diamond Head and Koolau Mountains,' and 'beautiful views of the city, mountains, & Ala Wai canal.' With 8 of 20 MLS entries checking MOUNTAIN and no units marked as having no view, evidence is strong that this building offers multiple mountain-view units across different stacks and floors.

Multiple listings note Diamond Head views from the building, often together with Ala Wai Canal and Koolau Mountains. This, plus an MLS Diamond Head view checkbox, confirms that some units enjoy Diamond Head vistas.

Several listings emphasize urban scenery such as 'city views' and 'twinkling city lights at night.' Combined with 7/20 MLS CITY view checkboxes, this shows that city views are a common feature for this building.

Where ocean-related views are mentioned, they are described simply as 'ocean views' or 'Ala Wai Canal' views, never as coastline or shoreline panoramas. Given 0/20 MLS coastline entries and no textual mentions, coastline views do not appear to be a distinct or marketed building feature.

There is limited but direct MLS checkbox evidence that at least one unit has a garden view, likely over landscaped or courtyard areas. While not a major marketing focus, this suggests some units may look onto greenery rather than only water or cityscape.

Golf course views are explicitly and repeatedly marketed, particularly from higher floors overlooking the Ala Wai Golf Course. With 6/20 MLS golf course view entries and clear remarks, this is a well-established building view amenity.

Canal/marina-type views are one of the most common themes in the remarks, with numerous listings highlighting 'sweeping canal and golf course views,' 'Ala Wai Canal,' and 'views of the golf course and Ala Wai Canal.' Even though agents do not always check the MARCAN view box, the consistent narrative across many listings confirms that this building offers units with marina/canal-style views attractive to buyers seeking that outlook.

A small subset of MLS entries mark SUNRISE as a view type, suggesting some units face east or otherwise capture morning sun. This feature is implied by MLS data rather than reinforced by the written remarks.

Neither MLS view data nor any of the marketing remarks reference sunset or evening sun views despite detailed discussion of other view types. This consistent omission across many listings makes it unlikely that sunset views are a notable or commonly advertised feature here.

All available data emphasize canal, golf course, mountain, city, and occasional ocean views, with no hint of a nearby cemetery in any marketing or MLS view field. This strongly indicates the building does not have cemetery views.

I specifically checked for references to 'fireworks', 'Friday night fireworks', or watching fireworks from the lanai or unit and found none. Without explicit mention, fireworks views from the building are unlikely.

No analysis available

Multiple independent remarks clearly describe the building as 'pet-friendly' and allow pets, without any conflicting 'no pets' language. This consistent wording across many listings provides very strong evidence that pets are allowed in the building.

Multiple current listings for Ala Wai Townhouse/Ala Wai Townhouses explicitly mention a resident/on-site manager, e.g., 'secure, pet-friendly building with an on-site Resident Manager,' 'Ala Wai Townhouse is a secured, PET-FRIENDLY building with an on-site manager that lives in the building,' and 'Resident manager on premises.' Combined with 15 of 20 current listings checking the resident manager amenity, this strongly confirms that the building continues to have an on-site resident manager.

The property is consistently marketed as a condo/leasehold apartment with long-term use and explicit prohibition of short-term rentals. The absence of any hotel-program language and the stated rental limits indicate it does not operate as a condotel.

Remarks discuss leasehold vs. fee simple interests and purchasing the fee, which is standard for condos in this area, and never reference cooperative ownership. This strongly supports that the building is a condominium, not a co-op.
