Bamboo
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.

No analysis available
The penthouse listing identifies floor 13, and both county and state records report 13 floors. A single listing showing floor 14 is outweighed by the penthouse and consistent records.
County records report 97 reconciled residential units, matching the state registration total of 97 for this single-building registration.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 142. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The listings confirm that the building has elevators, including renovated elevators. No remark specifies the number of elevators, so the current value of 2 is retained with low confidence. There is no evidence in the remarks to confirm or deny that exact count.

Cable inclusion is strongly supported across the building. At least 8 listings explicitly mention phrases such as "cable," "cable TV," or "Cable TV included," including remarks stating the HOA fee covers cable alongside electricity and utilities. The 19/20 MLS inclusion rate across multiple listings confirms this is a building-wide feature.
Other common expenses are included according to 18 of 20 current MLS records. One listing explicitly includes "Other Common Expenses" in the HOA fee, while several others describe the maintenance fee as covering all essentials or common building amenities. Although remarks are less specific than for utilities, the high MLS rate and historical high confidence support inclusion.
No analysis available
Electricity inclusion is effectively unanimous. At least 10 listings explicitly say "electricity included," "maintenance fee includes electricity," or that the fee covers all utilities, with wording appearing across multiple agents and listing styles. The 20/20 MLS rate and prior high-confidence evidence make this feature certain.
Gas appears to be included in the building fee based on multiple remarks, despite the low checkbox count in MLS history. Key phrases include "The all-in monthly fee covers electricity, gas, hot water..." and a unit-level utility list that names gas directly.
Hot water inclusion is strongly confirmed. At least 6 listings explicitly mention "hot water," "hot and cold water," or HOA coverage of hot water, including repeated detailed utility lists. The 19/20 HOTWAT rate and complete absence of WTRHTR support building-supplied hot water included in the fee.
Internet service is consistently included in the maintenance fee. At least 9 listings mention "internet," "Internet Service," "WiFi," or "high-speed WiFi" as included, often alongside cable and electricity. The 18/20 MLS rate and repeated confirmations from multiple agents provide strong evidence.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is unanimous in the current MLS data. At least 7 listings explicitly list sewer among covered utilities, using phrases such as "fee includes ... sewer" and "maintenance fee covers ... sewer." The 20/20 rate and consistent remarks establish this as a building-wide feature.
Water inclusion is strongly supported across the building. At least 8 listings explicitly state that water, or hot and cold water, is included in the maintenance fee, frequently bundled with electricity and sewer. The 19/20 MLS inclusion rate and repeated multi-agent remarks confirm the feature.
BBQ amenities are confirmed across numerous independent listing remarks, in addition to appearing in 15 of 20 MLS amenity records. Repeated references to the pool-area BBQ, grilling area, and barbecue grill indicate this is a building-level shared amenity rather than isolated copy-paste data.

Multiple current listings confirm staffed service, including "24/7 front desk," "24-hour front desk," Castle Resorts-operated front desk, and "front desk/concierge." The evidence is consistent with the previously high-confidence history and appears across several distinct remarks, not merely an unsupported MLS checkbox.
No analysis available
At least one public remark directly says "doorman," and several others reference a "24-hour front desk," "front desk/concierge," or similar lobby service. The evidence suggests building-level attendant service is present, even though the MLS checkbox appears inconsistently used.

At least 15 of 20 listings include patio/deck-style outdoor space in MLS amenities, and numerous independent remarks explicitly mention lanais, balconies, or patios. Key phrases include 'two private lanais,' '3 lanais,' 'lanai/patio,' 'private balcony,' and '173 sq ft of private outdoor space,' demonstrating strong, repeated evidence that the building offers this feature.

The building appears to have a shared recreation area, with multiple listings explicitly mentioning "recreation area" and related common-amenity language like "recreation deck," "lounge/BBQ area," and "pool area." This is reinforced by current MLS data showing RECARE in 2/20 listings, and the feature is described repeatedly across many remarks rather than only one agent's wording.
No analysis available
The building's restaurant is strongly confirmed by 17 of 20 MLS amenity records and repeated detailed remarks from multiple listings. References consistently describe a poolside or ground-floor bar/restaurant, including the newly renovated poolside restaurant, supporting a shared on-site dining facility.

The building’s amenities are directly described as including surfboard storage. This is explicit public-remarks evidence that the feature exists.
No analysis available
Moderate/ambiguous evidence: 11 of 20 MLS checkboxes indicate a trash chute, but none of the public remarks mention "trash chute"/"garbage chute". Given the lack of remarks and medium historical confidence, this is a tentative inclusion based on MLS checklist counts but should be verified with building management or a site visit.

Strong evidence the building offers a whirlpool/hot tub/spa feature. Around 13 of 20 listings mention it, with multiple remarks explicitly stating "jacuzzi" and "hot tub." The repeated mentions across listings indicate this is a building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste noise.
The building clearly has a shared swimming pool: numerous listings explicitly mention a “lagoon-style pool with waterfall,” “tropical pool,” or “pool with waterfall,” often alongside the jacuzzi and poolside restaurant. Evidence is strong across many listings and agents, while the 20/20 MLS amenity entries further confirm the feature is not merely an isolated copy-paste error.
No analysis available
The building pool is directly identified as saltwater in the remarks. Other listings consistently confirm the presence of a pool, though they do not repeat the saltwater detail.
No analysis available
Community laundry is strongly verified across multiple listings and agents. At least 7 remarks explicitly describe shared facilities, including "community laundry," "card-operated laundry," "laundry on 3 floors," and "on-site paid laundry," while 18/20 current listings include the COMLAU amenity, indicating a genuine building-wide feature rather than isolated copy-paste.
Multiple listings confirm that community laundry requires payment. The remarks reference both a nominal or small fee and card-operated laundry.
The listings specifically describe laundry on only three floors and, in another listing, on the same floor as the unit. No listing states that laundry is available on all 13 floors.
At least 8 listings mention parking or provide specific parking details, including “guest parking for daily rental,” “guest parking available at $40 per night,” “10 secure parking stalls in the building,” and parking available to guests for a fee. Although 18/20 current MLS records show NONE, the repeated, consistent remarks across multiple agents confirm that the building offers paid guest parking and secure stalls.
No analysis available
Several listings describe "10 secure parking stalls in the building" plus guest parking available at a nightly rate, indicating an internal structured parking area rather than an uncovered lot. MLS parking features on 4 of 20 listings also flag covered/garage-style options, reinforcing that at least some stalls are covered. No remarks indicate only open or street parking, so it is reasonable to treat this building as offering covered parking.
There is direct public-remark evidence that at least one unit in the building has deeded parking. Other remarks describe guest parking separately, but they do not negate the explicit deeded-parking statement.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly describe guest parking as available for a nightly fee, including $35–$40 per night, often on a first-come, first-served basis. Because the requested feature is a monthly parking fee, the monthly amount is unknown from the remarks.

The remarks mention guest parking availability and first-come, first-served access, but do not mention a parking waitlist or waiting list. Based on the absence of any waitlist language, this is assessed as false with medium-low confidence.
No analysis available
The remarks mention a 24/7 front desk, concierge, a secure entrance, and card-operated laundry. None establishes a card- or fob-based building access security system.
Security service is explicitly mentioned in multiple remarks, including phrases like "24-hour security" and "secure entrance." This is supported by current MLS amenities in 8/20 listings, so the evidence is strong that the building has security guard service.
The listings describe front-desk services, hotel management, concierge-related services, and a secure entrance. These references do not confirm an on-site or roving security patrol service.
No analysis available
Across more than ten listings, air conditioning is consistently described as in-unit split A/C (often newly installed or upgraded), with no mentions of central air or a building-wide HVAC system. MLS AC checkboxes almost uniformly omit central AC, and assessments are specifically tied to installing new split ACs and sound-dampening doors, strongly indicating the building does not have central air conditioning.
Split AC is overwhelmingly supported across the building: more than 15 current remarks explicitly mention split AC or related wording, including 'new split AC,' 'new split ACs,' 'split A/C,' and '2 split ACs.' The feature appears across multiple unit types and agents, and aligns with the prior high-confidence conclusion and 17/20 current MLS inclusion records.
No analysis available
Zero listings explicitly mention concrete construction in the public remarks. However, all 20 of 20 MLS records identify the construction material as CONCRE, and this agrees with the prior high-confidence assessment, making the evidence strong at the building level.
Only a small subset of MLS records (4 of 20) include double-wall (DOUWAL) and none of the public remarks reference double-wall construction. The feature appears to be an inconsistent checkbox entry rather than a confirmed building attribute.
No analysis available
No listings mention masonry, stucco, or masonry-and-stucco construction. Only 5 of 20 MLS records contain the MASSTU code, while the historical assessment was low confidence, so there is not reliable building-level support for this feature.
Limited MLS support: only 2 of 20 listings list 'steel frame' (STEFRA). No public remarks mention steel-frame construction; this could be isolated checkbox entries or copy-paste. Included because some MLS records indicate it, but confidence is moderate.
Zero listings mention a concrete slab or solid concrete foundation. SLAB appears in only 1 of 20 MLS records, providing insufficient evidence to establish slab construction for the building.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Some MLS consistency: 8 of 20 current listings (and previously 7 of 20) list 'above ground' (ABOGRO). However, public remarks contain no explicit references to above-ground construction and may reflect inconsistent agent checkbox usage; included because multiple listings reference it, but confidence is moderate.

The remarks provide extensive, repeated confirmation that short-term rentals are legally permitted in the Bamboo building. They also describe the building as resort-zoned and legally operating as a vacation-rental condotel.
The building clearly participates in a hotel rental-pool program. Public remarks reference the hotel pool, hotel front desk rental pool, and Castle Resorts operations.
Hotel-pool participation is optional rather than mandatory. Multiple listings confirm self-management and independent-management options, as well as the ability to remain outside the hotel rental pool.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The available remarks indicate fee-simple ownership rather than leasehold ownership. Because no applicable land lease is described and no specific lease-expiry year is mentioned, the value is null.
The remarks were searched for explicit VA-related language such as “VA approved,” “VA financing,” or “VA loans accepted.” None was found, so there is no public-remark evidence that the building is VA loan approved.
The listings mention maintenance fees and included utilities, but do not describe the building as fully insured or provide walls-in coverage. No explicit denial was found either. This is treated as false with limited confidence due to the absence of supporting remarks.
Fire sprinklers are supported primarily by the MLS amenity pattern: 15 of 20 current listings include FIRSPR. None of the public remarks explicitly mention sprinklers, but the consistent checkbox presence across many listings and prior high-confidence history support retaining the feature.
The remarks were searched for explicit FLSE passage, fire-safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed fire-inspection language. None of those statements appears in the provided listings. This is therefore treated as false with limited confidence because the feature may simply be unmentioned.

Multiple listings explicitly mention ocean or partial ocean views — quotes include "partial ocean views", "ocean views from two private lanais", and "one facing ocean/sunset." These references appear across several listing remarks (multiple agents/instances), indicating some units in the building offer ocean views despite the MLS view_descriptions checkboxes showing 0/20.
Multiple remarks reference mountain views, including a corner 1-bedroom with 'beautiful mountain & city views' and another unit with a 'lanai with city/mountain views.' Even though the MLS checkbox is rarely used, these explicit descriptions across different listings show that certain units in the building enjoy mountain views.
No analysis available
City views are strongly supported across the listing history and current remarks, with 16 of 20 listings containing CITY in their view descriptions. Explicit phrases include "on the 6th floor with a city view," "private balcony with a city view," "city/mountain views," and "beautiful mountain & city views," indicating this is a genuine building/unit view option rather than an isolated copied claim.

Several listing remarks explicitly reference sunset exposure such as "one facing ocean/sunset" and note western/ocean-sunset facing lanais. Combined with prior high-confidence history, these multiple explicit mentions indicate some units have sunset views despite MLS checkbox counts showing 0/20.
No analysis available
The remarks describe city, mountain, partial ocean, ocean/sunset, pool, and Waikiki views, but none specifically identify fireworks views from the building. References to Waikiki nightlife and entertainment do not establish a fireworks view.

The building is repeatedly described as having a resident manager/on-site management, with explicit mention in the current remarks. This is supported by several listings and fits the hotel-condotel style operation, alongside related references to a 24/7 front desk and building management. The evidence is strong enough to treat this as a building feature.
