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.

Searched all public remarks for owner-occupancy statements but found none. Per the numeric-field rules, keep the current value when no remarks mention the field; confidence is low because there is no corroborating evidence in the remarks.
Public remarks confirm the presence of elevators (e.g., 'renovated elevators' and 'After taking the elevator to the top floor') but no explicit number is given. Per rules, keep the current numeric value when no remarks state a number. Confidence is low because the exact count is not confirmed in the remarks.

Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 19 of 20 MLS checkboxes list cable TV and multiple agent remarks explicitly say 'cable TV' or 'Cable TV' is included in the maintenance fee. Evidence appears across many agents and is corroborated by repeated remarks (likely accurate, not a single copy-paste anomaly).
High-confidence evidence: 19/20 MLS checkboxes include 'Other Common Expenses' and remarks repeatedly state HOA covers common-area costs. Multiple listings from different agents mention this, supporting inclusion.
No analysis available
Very strong evidence: all 20 of 20 MLS checkboxes list electricity and numerous public remarks explicitly confirm 'electricity' is included in the maintenance fee. Multiple agents and listings consistently state this.
No analysis available
Strong evidence: 19 of 20 MLS checkboxes include hot water and multiple listings explicitly say 'hot and cold water' or 'Hot Water' is included in the maintenance fee, supporting inclusion building-wide.
Good evidence: 18 of 20 MLS checkboxes list internet service and multiple agent remarks explicitly say 'Internet Service' or 'high-speed WiFi' is included in the maintenance fee. Evidence is consistent across listings.
No analysis available
Strong evidence: 19 of 20 MLS checkboxes include sewer and multiple remarks explicitly state 'sewer' is included in the maintenance fee, consistent across different listings and agents.
Good evidence: 16 of 20 MLS checkboxes list water and numerous remarks explicitly state 'water' or 'hot and cold water' is included in the maintenance fee. Evidence is strong but slightly less pervasive than for electricity or cable.
Well-supported: roughly 14 of 20 current listings/remarks and prior MLS data reference building BBQ/grilling facilities, using phrases like 'BBQ', 'BBQ facilities', and 'sundeck with grilling area'. Evidence appears across multiple agent remarks rather than a single copy/paste source, giving strong confidence the building offers BBQ facilities.

At least two listings explicitly mention 'front desk/concierge' and a '24-hour front desk,' indicating an actively staffed desk providing guest services. With over half of the MLS entries also marking concierge in amenities, there is strong multi-agent evidence that concierge/front-desk service is a standard building feature.

Both historical MLS checkbox data (12/20 listings) and numerous current remarks confirm building outdoor amenities. Multiple listings mention private lanais/balconies (e.g., "two lanais", "private lanai", "balcony"), shared sundeck/sundeck with BBQ or "sundeck with grilling area", and one listing even notes "173 sq ft of private outdoor space." Evidence is consistent across many agents' remarks and indicates the building offers both private lanais and shared outdoor/deck amenities (sundeck/BBQ areas).

Strong evidence: ~16 of 20 listings mention an in-building restaurant or poolside dining, with repeated specific phrases such as 'Ko Tiki Terrace poolside restaurant', 'Tiki pool bar/restaurant', and 'on-site dining'. Multiple agents reference the restaurant, confirming it is a building amenity.

Multiple listings reference surfboard/board storage as an amenity. This explicit and repeated language provides strong evidence that surfboard storage is available in the building.
No analysis available
Ambiguous: 9 of 20 current MLS checklist entries indicate a trash chute and prior confidence was Medium, but the public remarks provided do not mention 'trash chute', 'garbage chute', or similar in any listing. Because MLS checkboxes still show it in some listings but remarks lack corroboration, treat as possible (included) with moderate confidence until direct verification.

Good confirmation: about 11 of 20 listings mention a jacuzzi/hot tub (phrases like 'jacuzzi', 'hot tub', 'soothing jacuzzi', 'hot tub surrounded by palms'), often described together with the lagoon-style/tiki-themed pool area. Multiple agents independently reference this amenity, supporting inclusion.
Strong, consistent evidence that the Bamboo building has a shared pool: current remarks across the listing set repeatedly mention the pool (≈20 listings), using phrases like "lagoon-style pool," "tropical pool with waterfall," "Saltwater Pool with calming waterfall," "tiki style pool with waterfall & lots of seating," and "pool w/jacuzzi in tropical setting." Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks (not isolated), matching historical MLS checkbox data indicating the amenity is a building-level feature.
No analysis available
At least one remark explicitly calls the pool a 'Saltwater Pool' (also multiple references to lagoon/tiki-style pool). This explicit language supports that the pool is salt water.
No analysis available
High historical support: 16/20 current MLS listings include COMLAU. Multiple agent remarks across different listings explicitly note shared laundry (quotes: "laundry on 3 floors (incl. 12th floor)", "community laundry on the same floor", "community laundry in building", "on-site paid laundry"). Evidence is consistent across several different listings/agents, so confidence that the building has community/shared laundry is high.
Multiple listings explicitly reference paid/on-site laundry (nominal fee / on-site paid laundry). I searched for terms such as 'coin-op', 'paid laundry', and found direct statements confirming laundry requires payment.
Remarks indicate community laundry is available on three floors (including the 12th). I searched the remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor' or 'laundry room on every floor' and found explicit language showing it is only on select floors, so it is not on every floor.
Multiple current remarks explicitly reference parking availability: several listings note 'Guest parking Available at $40 per night' or '$35 per night, first-come, first-served', and one listing states the penthouse 'comes with a deeded parking space.' Historical data also cited '10 secure parking stalls in the building.' Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks (not just a single copy/paste), so the building-level parking feature is present.
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.
At least one listing explicitly states a unit 'comes with a deeded parking space', demonstrating deeded parking exists in the building. That explicit language supports marking this true.
No analysis available
I searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', and similar phrases. The listings repeatedly state nightly guest parking fees ($35–$40/night, first-come/first-served) but do not provide any monthly parking rate, so a monthly parking fee cannot be determined from the remarks.

I searched for 'parking waitlist' or similar terms. Listings repeatedly state guest parking is available on a first-come, first-served nightly basis and do not mention a waiting list, so parking_waitlist is false.
No analysis available
I searched for 'key card access', 'fob', 'card reader', 'keycard', and similar terms and found none. The remarks mention a 24-hour front desk/concierge, Castle Resorts operating the front desk, and 'secure entrance', but they do not explicitly state a card/fob access system, so absence of explicit card/fob language leads to a likely false.
Six of 20 current MLS listings include the SECGUA amenity, but 0 of the provided public remarks explicitly mention a security guard or 24/7 security. Remarks do reference a '24-hour front desk', 'front desk/concierge', and 'secure entrance', which may imply some level of staffed presence, but there is no clear, repeated agent language like 'security guard' or 'on-site security' across multiple listings, so evidence is weak-to-moderate and appears possibly due to checkbox copy/paste.
I searched the remarks for 'security patrol', 'roving security', 'patrol service', and similar phrases and found none. The listings reference a 24-hour front desk/concierge and resident manager but do not indicate a security patrol service, so security patrol is likely not present based on the remarks.
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.
High-confidence evidence: historical MLS data shows 17/20 listings checked ACSPL and the current public remarks repeatedly mention split systems—phrases include 'split AC', 'new split air conditioning', 'new split A/C', and '2 split ACs'. These references appear across many listings/agents rather than a single isolated remark, supporting that some units in the building have ductless/mini-split AC.
No analysis available
All 20 of 20 recent MLS entries identify concrete (CONCRE) as a construction material for the Bamboo building, giving very strong and consistent evidence. None of the public remarks explicitly mention construction materials to contradict this. Given the complete agreement in MLS checkbox data across listings (likely pulled from building records), the building is assessed as concrete construction with high confidence.
Only 3/20 MLS records mark DOUWAL, while the building is predominantly a concrete high-rise; no remarks mention double-wall construction, suggesting the few MLS checks are likely inconsistent or erroneous.
No analysis available
Only 2 of 20 MLS listings currently list masonry/stucco (MASSTU) and none of the public remarks mention masonry or stucco construction. This is weak and inconsistent evidence that the building has masonry & stucco; it may reflect occasional agent checkbox usage rather than an actual building characteristic. Low confidence—further on-site or owner confirmation recommended.

Only 4 of 20 current MLS entries include ABOGRO in construction_materials, and none of the public remarks mention 'above ground' construction. With no prior verification and sparse checkbox prevalence, evidence for an 'above ground' designation is weak and likely inconsistent (possible agent checkbox variability); recommend owner/property-manager verification for a definitive determination.

Multiple listings explicitly state short-term/vacation rentals are legal and permitted (resort/hotel zoning and condotel wording). This is clear evidence that STRs are allowed in the building.
Public remarks repeatedly note units participate in a hotel rental pool (including mentions of Castle Resorts and references to units being 'in the hotel pool'), so the hotel rental pool participation is true.
Remarks repeatedly indicate participation in the hotel pool is optional (owners can self-manage or join the hotel program and some units are privately managed), so hotel-pool participation is not mandatory.

I searched for 'lease expires', 'land lease', 'leasehold', and specific expiry years; no lease expiry year was found. Multiple remarks indicate Fee Simple ownership, so a lease-expiry year is not applicable.
I searched all public remarks for phrases indicating VA loan approval (e.g., 'VA approved', 'VA financing', 'VA loans accepted') and found no references. With no evidence in the remarks, VA financing cannot be confirmed.
Reviewed public remarks for insurance coverage language (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'comprehensive building insurance') and found no references. With no explicit mention and no current value, set to false with medium confidence.
MLS amenities indicate the building has fire sprinklers in a majority of listings (13 of 20 currently checked FIRSPR) and prior data gave high confidence. None of the public remarks explicitly mention or contradict a sprinkler system (no phrases like 'fire sprinkler' or 'sprinkler system'), and there is no owner/site-visit verification removing the feature. Given consistent MLS checkbox data across multiple agents and no overwhelming contrary evidence, the building is recorded as having fire sprinklers.
Searched the remarks for phrases like 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'fire safety certified', and 'passed fire inspection' but found none. With no explicit mentions and no existing current value, set to false with medium confidence (absence of evidence is likely indicates not stated publicly).
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

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
Multiple recent listing remarks (at least 8–10 instances) explicitly reference city or city/mountain views—quotes include 'one facing mountain/city', 'beautiful mountain & city views', and 'private balcony with a city view'. Although the structured MLS view field currently shows no CITY entries, consistent, repeated remarks across different listings and past high-confidence data indicate the building does offer city-view units.

Across 20 current listings none mention sunset views or related phrases (0/20 list 'SUNSET' in view_descriptions). Remarks reference city, mountain, or ocean views and pool-facing units but contain no phrases like 'sunset', 'western exposure', or 'evening sun', so there is strong consistent evidence the building does not advertise sunset views.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for phrases like 'fireworks view', 'watch fireworks from lanai', and 'see fireworks from unit' but found no references. The listings describe ocean views and multiple lanais but do not state views of fireworks from the building or units.

Remarks repeatedly reference staffed on-site management functions, including 'Castle Resorts operates front desk', 'front desk/concierge', and '24-hour front desk', confirming a continuous on-site management presence. Together with 5 of 20 listings checking RESMAN, this supports that the building offers resident/on-site manager–style services that buyers searching for that feature would expect.
