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.
Bamboo
Building Overview
Bamboo in Waikiki — 13-story concrete building (1968) with pool, fitness center and concierge services.

I searched the remarks for owner-occupancy clues such as a percentage, majority owner occupied, or highly owner occupied, and found none. In the absence of any explicit listing evidence, the current value is kept with low confidence.
I found public remarks confirming that the building has elevator service, which aligns with the current value. However, I did not find any explicit statement such as '2 elevators' or 'multiple elevators' to independently verify the count, so the current value is kept with low confidence.

Cable TV inclusion is strongly supported across the building. Remarks repeatedly state things like "maintenance fee includes electricity, cable TV, internet" and "HOA fee covers ... Cable TV". This looks consistent across many listings rather than a one-off agent copy.
Common-area/other common expenses appear to be included in the maintenance fee. While remarks are less explicit than for utilities, the high MLS rate of 18/20 supports this as a building-level inclusion.
No analysis available
Electricity inclusion is extremely well supported and effectively unanimous in the MLS data. Multiple listings explicitly say "Electricity" or "all utilities" are covered, including fee statements that list electricity alongside cable, water, sewer, and hot water.
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 supported by both MLS data and remarks. Several listings explicitly state "hot water" or "hot and cold water" is covered in the maintenance fee, and the pattern is consistent across the building.
Internet service is included in the maintenance fee. Multiple listings mention "Internet Service," "high-speed WiFi," or "Internet/TV" included, matching the strong MLS history of 19/20 with INTSER. The evidence is consistent across many agents.
No analysis available
Sewer is clearly included in the maintenance fee. The MLS data is unanimous at 20/20, and multiple listings explicitly mention sewer alongside electricity, water, and cable TV.
Water inclusion is strongly supported across the building. Listings repeatedly say the fee covers water, and many bundle it with electricity, sewer, and cable TV, suggesting this is a standard building-wide inclusion.
Strong evidence the building has BBQ amenities. Roughly 15 of 20 listings include BBQ or grilling references, with repeated phrases like "BBQ facilities," "lounge/BBQ area," "sundeck with BBQ facilities," and "barbecue grill." The repeated wording across multiple listings suggests this is a shared building amenity, not a one-off agent error.

At least 6 separate public remarks explicitly reference a staffed front desk/concierge — key phrases include '24/7 front desk', '24-hour front desk', 'front desk/concierge', and 'Castle Resorts operates front desk.' The repeated, specific mentions across multiple agent remarks indicate a consistently staffed front desk/concierge rather than copy-paste ambiguity, supporting high confidence that concierge service exists.
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.

Strong, repeated evidence that this building offers patio/deck-style outdoor spaces. Across many listings, agents mention 'private lanais,' 'two lanais/patios,' 'private balcony,' and 'sundeck with BBQ facilities,' which appears consistently across multiple remarks rather than a single copied phrase. This aligns with the historical PATDEC/COVPAT activity in MLS data and supports keeping patio/deck as a building 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
Very strong evidence the building has an on-site restaurant or dining facility. About 18 of 20 listings reference it, using phrases such as "on-site restaurant," "restaurant on site," "poolside bar/restaurant," and "Ko Tiki Terrace restaurant." The consistency across many listings strongly supports this as a true shared amenity.

I searched for surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, or bike-and-surfboard storage. The remarks directly confirm surfboard storage facilities, so this feature is supported.
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.
There is overwhelming evidence that the building has a shared swimming pool. Across the provided remarks, dozens of listings reference it in varied wording—"pool," "tropical pool with waterfall," "lagoon-style pool," and "saltwater pool"—often alongside jacuzzi/lounge/BBQ area details. The consistency across many listings and agents suggests this is a true, well-established building amenity, not copy-paste error.
No analysis available
I searched for saltwater, salt pool, saline pool, or similar wording. The pool is directly identified as saltwater, so this feature is clearly present.
No analysis available
Evidence for community laundry is extremely strong across the building. Multiple current listings explicitly mention shared laundry facilities in phrases like "community laundry," "card-operated laundry," "laundry on 3 floors," and "on-site paid laundry," and the MLS checkbox appears in 18 of 20 listings. This is consistent across many agents and reads as a real building amenity rather than copy-paste noise.
I searched for coin-op, card-operated, fee-based, or paid laundry wording. Multiple remarks confirm that the community laundry requires payment, so this is strongly supported.
I looked for language indicating laundry on each floor or floor-by-floor laundry. The remarks instead specify laundry only on select floors, which directly argues against this feature being available on every floor.
Parking is clearly available at the building. Across many listings, agents mention guest parking for a nightly fee, secure parking stalls, hotel-arranged parking, and even a deeded parking space. The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and agents, so this appears to be a real building feature rather than a checkbox error.
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 directly states that the unit comes with a deeded parking space, which is strong evidence for deeded parking in the building. I treated this as a building-level feature because the remark ties the parking to the property ownership.
No analysis available
I found clear parking charges in the remarks, but they are nightly guest parking rates rather than a monthly owner parking fee. Because the feature asks for a parking fee and the public remarks only provide per-night amounts, I recorded the explicit fee value mentioned most often as 35.

I searched for references to a parking waitlist, parking queue, or instructions to join a waitlist and found none. The remarks instead describe parking as first-come, first-served, which suggests availability but not a formal waiting-list system.
No analysis available
I looked for card/fob access terms such as key card access, fob access, card reader, or keycard entry. The remarks mention secure entrance and 24/7 front desk, but they do not explicitly confirm a card-based 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.
I searched for patrol-related language such as security patrol, roving security, or patrolled building. The remarks refer to doorman, front desk, concierge, and 24-hour security, but not a 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 strongly supported across the building. At least 15+ remarks explicitly mention phrases like "split AC system in each room," "new split AC," "split A/C," and "split ACs in both rooms," which appears consistent across multiple listings and agents rather than a one-off typo. Current remarks confirm the historical MLS inclusion data, so this feature should remain true.
No analysis available
Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. Current MLS coding is 20 of 20 listings as CONCRE, and the public remarks consistently refer to the same Bamboo Waikiki building without any contradictory construction notes. This looks like stable, building-wide data rather than a copy-paste anomaly.
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
Only 4 of 20 MLS records list masonry/stucco (MASSTU) and none of the public remarks mention masonry or stucco. Given the lack of textual confirmation and sporadic MLS checks, masonry/stucco is unlikely to be a primary documented exterior construction material.
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.

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.

No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly and explicitly confirm that short-term rentals are allowed in the building. This is supported by language such as legal vacation rental, STR permitted, and resort zoned/daily rental language.
The public remarks clearly show participation in a hotel rental pool program. Multiple listings say the unit is in the hotel pool or can be placed into the hotel rental pool, which satisfies the feature.
The remarks explicitly indicate that hotel pool participation is optional rather than required. Because owners can self-manage or use other management arrangements, the rental pool is not mandatory.

No analysis available
I looked for leasehold wording like lease expires, ground lease ends, renewed through, or any 4-digit expiry year and found nothing. The remarks instead call the property fee-simple, which points away from a leasehold tenure, but no lease expiry year is provided.
I searched the remarks for explicit VA-related language such as VA approved or VA financing and found none. Since this feature must be determined from public remarks only, I cannot infer approval from the building type or location.
I looked for HOA insurance wording that would indicate full building or walls-in coverage, but the remarks do not mention insurance at all. Because there is no public evidence one way or the other, this is left unconfirmed and set to false with low confidence.
Fire sprinklers are strongly supported by the MLS pattern: 16 of 20 current listings include FIRSPR in amenities. None of the public remarks explicitly mention sprinkler systems, so this appears to be an MLS-derived building feature rather than a remark-confirmed one.
I searched the remarks for explicit fire/life-safety language such as FLSE passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, or passed fire inspection, but found nothing. With no public remark evidence, this remains unconfirmed and is set to false with low confidence.

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. Multiple agents independently describe the building or units as having "city view," "city/mountain views," "city light" views, and a "Preferred City View side of the building," which is consistent with the MLS history showing CITY in 16 of 20 listings. There is no credible evidence of a building-level change away from city views.

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
I searched for explicit phrases like fireworks view, watch fireworks from the lanai, or see fireworks from the unit. The remarks discuss beach, city, mountain, ocean, and pool views, but nothing about fireworks views from the building.

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.
