Aloha Lani
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 explicit owner-occupancy language such as '80% owner occupied,' 'majority owner occupied,' or any direct percentage, but none was found. The remarks only say the building has 'a mix of residents and visitors,' which does not quantify occupancy. The current 28% value is retained because there is no contradicting explicit evidence.
I looked for an explicit elevator count in the public remarks, but none was stated. The listings do reference elevators several times, which confirms their presence, but not the number. Since the current value already exists, it is kept as-is with low confidence.

Cable TV appears to be included in the maintenance fee at Aloha Lani. Multiple remarks explicitly state “Cable TV” is part of the monthly fees or break out a cable fee, confirming the MLS checkbox pattern across many listings.
Common area electricity is likely included in the association fee. While current remarks rarely spell it out, the MLS consistently marks OTCOEX in a majority of listings, suggesting this is a real building-level fee component.

Across the listing set, hot water is not shown as a building-paid fee inclusion. Only 1 of 20 listings includes HOTWAT, while many units explicitly note their own water heaters or tankless water heaters, which is consistent with hot water not being included in HOA maintenance. The remarks also do not contain any recurring phrase like "hot water included," so this appears to be a copy/paste checkbox issue rather than a building amenity.
Internet appears to be included in the building’s maintenance fees. One remark explicitly says the monthly fees include “internet,” and another highlights “WIFI” among the amenities, aligning with the MLS internet checkbox on a subset of listings.
No analysis available
Sewer is included in the maintenance fee at Aloha Lani. The MLS is highly consistent on SEWER and current remarks reinforce this with phrases like “water/sewer” and fee breakdowns that align with the checkbox data.
Water is included in the maintenance fee. Multiple listings explicitly mention water or water/sewer in the fee breakdown, and the MLS shows WATER in a strong majority of records, making this a very reliable building feature.
BBQ/grilling facilities are strongly supported across the building. Multiple listings mention phrases like “BBQ area,” “BBQ grills,” “gas barbecue grills,” “barbecue area,” and even “built-in grills,” indicating this is a shared amenity, not a one-off unit feature. The evidence is repeated by many agents and is consistent with the current MLS data.

Limited but direct evidence for a car wash facility: CRWSH appears in ~3 of 20 MLS entries and the public remarks explicitly include 'car wash area' in at least one listing. Mentions are infrequent, so the amenity exists but is only rarely referenced in agent remarks.

The building very clearly has an exercise room/fitness center. Across well over a dozen listings, remarks mention phrases like "gym," "fitness center," "exercise room," "weight room," and "stay fit in the exercise room," which is consistent across multiple agents and appears to be reliable rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
Moderate-to-strong evidence the building provides a meeting/conference/community room: ~7 of 20 MLS entries include MEEROO and public remarks include phrases like 'meeting room', 'multifunctional recreation/meeting room', and 'meeting room' in several listings, indicating this is an available shared amenity.
Strong building-level evidence supports patio/deck amenities. Current remarks mention the feature in many listings, including phrases like 'recreation deck,' 'pool deck cabanas,' 'roof-top recreation area,' 'sun deck,' and 'large covered relaxing Lanai.' The repeated references across multiple agents look consistent and reinforce the existing MLS amenity data rather than a copy-paste error.

The building has a shared recreation area, often described as a rooftop/amenity deck. Listings reference "roof-top recreation area," "recreation deck," "pool deck," and "amenity deck," with multiple remarks tying the recreation area to the pool, BBQ, and lounge space.
There is clear evidence that the building offers a recreation room. Multiple listings describe a "recreation room," "rec room," "game room," "recreation/meeting room," and even a "multi-functional recreation room," showing consistent building-level amenity reporting across agents.

Sauna is well supported across the building’s listings. Numerous remarks explicitly reference “sauna,” “saunas,” and related wellness amenities alongside the pool and fitness areas, showing this is a building-level shared amenity. The consistency across multiple listings makes this a strong, reliable feature.
Storage units/lockers are strongly supported for Aloha Lani. In the current remarks, roughly a dozen-plus listings mention it directly, including "additional storage," "extra storage," "private storage cabinet by unit," "small storage locker," and "storage room outside the front door." The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and reads as a real building feature rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
I searched for surfboard storage, board storage, surf racks, and bike-and-surfboard storage references. The remarks repeatedly confirm surfboard storage facilities, so confidence is very high.
No analysis available
The MLS checkbox strongly suggests a trash chute, but the public remarks do not substantiate it the way they do for the other amenities. Because the remarks are silent and many appear to be amenity copy-paste templates, this is lower confidence than the gym/rec-room/recreation-area features.

This building appears to have a whirlpool/hot tub feature. Listings consistently mention 'whirlpool,' 'hot tub,' and 'jacuzzi,' including references to a pool deck hot tub and spa-like amenities.
The pool is strongly confirmed for Aloha Lani. Well over a dozen current listings explicitly mention it, often with details like 'rooftop pool,' 'saltwater pool,' 'heated pool,' and 'newly upgraded pool/deck,' which supports that this is a shared building amenity rather than a copy-paste error. The consistency across many remarks and agents makes this a very reliable feature.
Moderate evidence the pool is heated: a few listings explicitly state a heated pool or heated swimming pool (quoted phrases include “heated pool” and “heated swimming pool”), consistent with prior MLS indicators showing heated-pool amenity in a minority of listings (about 3/20). Mentions are present but not universal across agents, so confidence is moderate.
I looked for salt water, saltwater, salt pool, or saline pool wording. The remarks repeatedly confirm a saltwater pool, so this is strongly supported.
Multiple penthouse remarks clearly describe an 'in-unit washer/dryer', confirming that at least one unit in Aloha Lani has its own laundry. MLS inclusions (2/20 listings with washer/dryer) support that this is not just a checkbox error. Buyers seeking buildings where some units have in-unit laundry would reasonably consider this building.
Evidence is overwhelming that Aloha Lani has shared/community laundry facilities. In the current remarks, well over a dozen listings explicitly mention it using phrases like 'community laundry,' 'coin-operated laundry center,' 'on-site laundry,' and 'laundry facilities,' across multiple agents and time periods. This is consistent with the prior high-confidence MLS amenity data, so the feature should be retained.
I looked for coin laundry, paid laundry, card-operated machines, quarters, or laundry fees. The remarks directly confirm coin-operated laundry, so this feature is present with very high confidence.
I searched for wording like "laundry on each floor," "every floor," and "floor-by-floor laundry." The public remarks only confirm shared laundry facilities in the building and one specific mention of the 7th floor, which is not enough to support every-floor availability.
Strong, building-level evidence: 20 of 20 MLS records include parking and dozens of public remarks reference on-site stalls (e.g., 'covered parking', 'one parking stall', 'FEE SIMPLE parking stall'). Multiple agents describe covered/garaged stalls and parking maintenance fees, indicating parking is consistently offered across the building.
Assigned/reserved parking is strongly supported across the public remarks. Multiple listings explicitly mention 'assigned covered parking,' 'deeded parking stall,' 'designated parking spot,' and even 'two assigned parking stalls,' showing this is not a one-off copy-paste detail. The evidence is consistent across many agents and listing types, so this feature should be included.
Covered parking is very strongly confirmed in the public remarks. Dozens of listings refer to 'covered parking stall,' 'covered and secured parking,' 'secure garage,' and 'one covered parking,' which aligns with the high-confidence historical data. The consistency across many listings makes this feature highly reliable.
The listings repeatedly describe parking as deeded or fee simple, which indicates owned parking rather than rented parking. There is strong, consistent public-remarks evidence for this feature.
No analysis available
The recurring monthly parking cost in the remarks is $73.01. I also looked for other parking charges, but this amount is the clearest and most repeated fee cited.
Guest parking is not clearly supported: only ~3 of 20 MLS records include GUEST and the collected remarks rarely state 'guest parking' or 'visitor parking'. Remarks focus on assigned/deeded stalls and secured covered parking, so there's insufficient evidence that dedicated guest parking is a building feature.
Secure-entry parking is well supported by the remarks and historical MLS data. Listings repeatedly describe 'secured garage,' 'gated parking,' 'secure entry fobs for Garage,' and '24 hour security,' indicating controlled access rather than simple open parking. The evidence appears across multiple agents and is consistent enough to include with high confidence.

I searched for public references to a parking waitlist, parking waiting list, or instructions to join a parking list, and found none. Because there is no affirmative mention, this is treated as absent in the remarks.
No analysis available
I searched for key card, fob, card reader, and electronic access language. The remarks clearly confirm fob/card-style secured access for the building and amenities.
Security guard service is strongly supported across the building. Dozens of remarks independently mention it, including explicit phrases such as "24/7 security," "24-hour security," "security guard," and "guard service onsite," which confirms the MLS amenity. The evidence is consistent across many agents and appears to be a real building feature, not a copy-paste anomaly.
I looked for patrol-specific wording such as security patrol, roving security, or patrolled building. The public remarks directly mention 24-7 security patrol, so this feature is present.

Window air conditioning is clearly present in this building. Multiple current listings explicitly mention it across different remarks and agents, including 'brand-new window AC (2025),' 'Split AC in the living room and window AC in the bedroom,' and 'bedroom is equipped with window AC.' The evidence is consistent and appears repeatedly in listing remarks, so this is a strong building feature rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Concrete construction is very strongly supported by the current MLS record. All 20 of 20 listings show CONCRE in construction_materials, and none of the public remarks provide any basis to doubt it. This appears to be a consistent building-level fact rather than copy-paste noise.
There is no meaningful public-remarks support for double-wall construction across the listings reviewed. The only relevant language is about window upgrades or smoothing interior walls, which does not establish double-wall construction, and the MLS signal remains weak at 6/20.

Just 2 of 20 current MLS listings mark steel frame, with no remarks mentioning 'steel frame' or similar structural descriptions. The building is otherwise consistently treated as a concrete high-rise. This pattern strongly indicates the structure is not categorized as steel frame in practice, and the minority STEFRA entries are probably mischecked boxes.

The MLS data provides a moderate signal for above-ground construction, with 6 of 20 listings marked ABOGRO. The remarks reinforce an elevated high-rise context through repeated references to 'high floor,' 'roof-top recreation area,' and 'sky deck' amenities, but they stop short of an explicit construction description.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The public remarks directly allow rentals with a 30-day minimum, which is clear evidence that short-term rentals are permitted under the building rules. This is repeated across multiple listings.
I searched for hotel-pool or branded rental program language such as hotel pool, managed by hotel, Hilton, Trump, or Ritz and found nothing. Since STR is allowed only via 30-day minimum listings and no hotel-pool references appear, this remains false.
I looked for language indicating owners must participate in a rental pool or cannot opt out, but found none. The remarks instead suggest flexible use, including owner occupancy and 30-day minimum rentals, so mandatory pool participation is not supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched for leasehold/ground-lease wording such as lease expires, ground lease ends, leasehold expiring, or a specific 4-digit expiration year. Nothing in the remarks indicates the land lease status or expiration date.
Public remarks directly confirm VA financing availability for the building, including explicit VA-approved and assumable VA loan language. This is strong, repeated evidence from listings.
The remarks repeatedly and explicitly state that the building is fully insured, including emphatic wording that the building is '100% insured.' This is strong, direct evidence from multiple listings. Confidence is very high.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for fire/life safety compliance language such as FLSE passed, fire inspection approval, or similar certification wording and found nothing. There is no public-remarks evidence to confirm the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation. With no mention and no current positive value, this is treated as not evidenced in the remarks.
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 listing remarks explicitly mention ocean views and ocean-facing lanais (quotes: 'sparkling ocean views', 'private lanai facing the ocean'). Evidence appears across many agent remarks and high-floor/penthouse descriptions, indicating the building offers ocean-view units.
Mountain views are strongly confirmed across the listing set, with many remarks explicitly saying "mountain views," "Koolau Mountain range," "Ko'olau Mountains," and "mauka views." This is consistent with the historical MLS pattern showing MOUNTA in 18 of 20 listings, suggesting the data is not a copy-paste anomaly but a true building-level feature.
Diamond Head views are present in some listings, though not as universally as the mountain/canal/golf views. Current remarks explicitly reference Diamond Head in a few unit descriptions, including one that says “PLUS… Diamond Head” and another that notes a “peek-a-boo ocean/Royal Hawaiian hotel view” near the Diamond Head context. The evidence supports including this as an available view type for some units in the building.
City views are well supported by both historical MLS data and current remarks. The listings include direct references such as “city views,” “sparkling city lights,” “cityscape,” and “panoramic City views,” often alongside mountain and canal views. This is consistent enough to treat as a real building-level view offering for some units.
Multiple remarks reference ocean-facing lanais and 'peek-a-boo ocean' or shoreline views (quotes: 'ocean-facing lanai', 'peek-a-boo ocean'), indicating the building offers coastline/coastal-view units.
No analysis available
Golf course views are consistently confirmed throughout the remarks, including direct mentions of "Ala Wai Golf Course" and "golf course views." Combined with the historical MLS pattern showing GOLCOU in 14 of 20 listings, the evidence strongly supports this as a building feature available in some units.
Marina-type views are strongly supported by repeated references to the Ala Wai Canal and canal-facing outlooks across many listings. The remarks appear across multiple agents and unit types, which makes this a reliable building-level feature rather than a one-off description.
Several listings explicitly mention sunrise views (quotes: 'sunrises above the Ala Wai Golf Course', 'spectacular sunrises'), demonstrating some units offer sunrise/eastern-exposure views.
Across dozens of listings, 0/20 MLS view descriptions mention sunset, and the remarks consistently emphasize sunrises and mauka/Ala Wai/Ko'olau views (e.g., "spectacular sunrises" and "watch the sun rise over the mountains"). While a few units note ocean or city views, no agent describes sunset, western exposure, or fireworks views from the building, suggesting sunset views are not a meaningful or marketed feature here.
No analysis available
I searched for direct references to fireworks views from lanais, windows, or the building itself. The remarks discuss canal, mountain, golf course, ocean, and city views, but nothing about fireworks views.

Strong repeated evidence supports a resident manager at Aloha Lani. Several current listings explicitly say "resident manager," "full time resident manager," or "resident manager working on site during the day," consistent with the prior MLS RESMAN amenity and suggesting this is a real building feature rather than copy-paste noise.
