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.
About Bamboo
Bamboo is a 13-floor, 36-unit concrete building located in Central Waikiki. According to available records the building was constructed in 1968 and includes two elevators.
Based on MLS data, building amenities include a pool, fitness center, BBQ area, resident manager and concierge. Units use split air conditioning and the property offers mountain views.
Additional details from the MLS indicate covered parking is available, pets are not allowed, and short-term rentals are permitted. The building is managed by Castle Resorts. This information is based on MLS data analysis; buyers should verify current details, restrictions and fees with the listing agent or management.

I searched the remarks for any owner-occupancy clues such as a percentage, majority owner occupied, or highly owner occupied, and found none. Per the rules, when no remarks mention a numeric field and a current value already exists, the current value is retained with low confidence.
The public remarks clearly confirm elevator access in the building. I did not find a different elevator count than the current value of 2, so the current number is retained. This is consistent with a 13-floor building and repeated elevator references across listings.

Cable TV inclusion is strongly supported across the building. Several listings explicitly state "Cable TV" or "Cable and Internet Service" are covered, and the MLS checkbox history is nearly unanimous at 19/20. This looks consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy/paste error.
Common area / other common expenses appear to be included in the maintenance fee. The MLS data is strong at 18/20, though current remarks mostly focus on total utilities rather than naming common-area power explicitly. Overall this is still a high-confidence building-level inclusion.
No analysis available
Electricity is clearly included in the maintenance fee. Remarks repeatedly state "Electricity" or "all utilities" are covered, and the MLS checkbox history is unanimous at 20/20. This is very strong evidence and appears consistent across listings.
No analysis available
Hot water is included in the maintenance fee. Multiple listings explicitly mention "Hot Water" or "hot and cold water," and the MLS history is very strong at 19/20. There is no sign of a building water-heater setup that would negate this inclusion.
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 included in the maintenance fee. The MLS data is unanimous at 20/20, and remarks directly list sewer among the covered utilities. This is one of the strongest-supported features for the building.
Water is included in the maintenance fee. Numerous listings explicitly mention water, and the MLS checkbox history is very strong at 19/20. The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and agents.
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.

Strong evidence that the building offers patio/deck-style outdoor spaces. Current remarks mention this in many listings with phrases like "lanai," "private lanai," "two lanais/patios," "private outdoor space," and "balcony," appearing across multiple agents and unit types rather than a single copy-paste note. This is consistent with the high-confidence MLS history and should be retained as a building feature.

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.

The remarks directly confirm surfboard storage facilities. This feature is explicitly listed in at least one public remark and is therefore well 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. The remarks mention it in many different ways across numerous listings, including "pool with waterfall," "tropical pool," "saltwater pool," and "lagoon-style pool," often alongside jacuzzi and poolside restaurant amenities. This is consistent across multiple agents and reads like genuine building amenity information rather than copy-paste error.
No analysis available
The pool type is directly identified in the remarks as saltwater. This is explicit and repeated in a way that leaves little ambiguity.
No analysis available
Strong, repeated evidence across many listings confirms the building has shared/community laundry facilities. About 5+ current remarks explicitly mention it, and the wording varies across agents, which suggests this is a real building feature rather than a single copy-paste artifact. The historical MLS signal is very strong as well (18/20 listings with COMLAU).
The remarks clearly indicate the community laundry is not free. Multiple listings mention paid, card-operated, or fee-based laundry, which is strong direct evidence for this feature.
I looked for language indicating laundry on every floor or floor-by-floor laundry, but the remarks instead show laundry only on select floors and on the same floor as the unit in one listing. That supports a building with community laundry, but not on every floor.
Parking is clearly available at the building. Multiple listings across different agents mention guest parking for a nightly fee, secure parking stalls, and at least one deeded parking space, which strongly confirms the feature. The evidence is consistent and repeated, not just a one-off copy-paste reference.
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.
The remarks directly state that a unit comes with a deeded parking space, which is strong evidence that deeded parking exists in the building. This is consistent with the building offering owned parking with at least some units.
No analysis available
I searched for a monthly parking charge, parking rental, or other ongoing parking cost. The remarks only reference daily guest parking rates, which do not establish a monthly parking fee for the building.

I looked for references to a parking waitlist, waiting list, or instructions to join a parking queue and found none. The remarks mention parking availability and daily rates, but nothing about a waitlist process.
No analysis available
I searched for card-based access terms such as key card access, fob access, card reader, electronic access, and keycard entry. The remarks instead mention front desk, concierge, and secure entrance, but those do not explicitly confirm a card/fob security system.
No public remarks (0 listings) explicitly mention a security guard, 24-hour or 24/7 security, or on-site security personnel. Several remarks reference a 'secure entrance' or 'secure parking' but that is not the same as staffed security. Given prior Low confidence and lack of explicit supporting remarks, there is insufficient evidence to assert the building provides security guard service.
I looked for any reference to patrol service or roving security and found none. The security-related language centers on front desk, concierge, and secure entrance, which is not enough to verify patrol service.

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 evidenced across the listing remarks. Multiple listings explicitly mention 'split A/C,' 'split ACs,' 'new split air conditioning,' and similar wording, indicating the building offers ductless/mini-split cooling in many units. The remarks and MLS history are consistent, suggesting this is a real building feature rather than a copy-paste error.

Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. Current MLS coding is 20 of 20 listings as CONCRE, and the public remarks repeatedly describe the same Bamboo Waikiki building without any contradiction to concrete construction. This is high-confidence, consistent across many listings, and appears to be stable building-level data.
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 listings repeatedly and explicitly say short-term rentals are legal and permitted in the building. This is strong evidence that STRs are allowed.
The remarks clearly indicate that the building participates in a hotel rental pool program. Multiple listings mention hotel pool use, including Castle Resorts management.
The listings explicitly show the hotel pool is optional, not mandatory, because owners can self-manage or choose hotel rental program participation. That rules out a mandatory pool requirement.

I looked for leasehold terms such as 'lease expires,' 'ground lease ends,' 'leasehold expiring,' or any renewal year and found nothing. The remarks do not provide a lease expiry date, so the value remains unknown.
I searched the public remarks for explicit VA loan approval language and found none. Since this feature is only determined from public remarks, there is no evidence to mark the building as VA-approved.
I looked for HOA insurance wording that would indicate full building or walls-in coverage, but the remarks do not mention insurance at all. With no explicit coverage statement in the listings, this cannot be confirmed from the available text.
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 public remarks for explicit fire/life-safety language, including FLSE, fire inspection, and life-safety compliance, but found nothing. Because this feature is only determined from remarks and there is no direct evidence, it remains unknown.

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 many separate public remarks, with well over 9 listings explicitly mentioning them. The descriptions include multiple variants such as "city light," "city/mountain views," "mountain & city views," and "private balcony with a city view," suggesting this is a real building-level offering rather than a one-off copy-paste error. Current MLS data also shows CITY in 15/20 listings, which aligns with the remarks.

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 such as 'fireworks view,' 'watch fireworks from the lanai,' and 'see fireworks from the unit,' but found none. The remarks mention ocean, city, mountain, pool, and lanai views, but those are not the same as a confirmed fireworks view from the building.

Resident manager/on-site management is moderately supported. While only 5 of 20 current MLS listings carry RESMAN, several remarks mention a “24/7 front desk,” “Castle Resorts operates front desk,” and “front desk/concierge,” suggesting an on-site management presence, though not always explicitly a resident manager.
