Colony Surf Ltd
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.

I looked for explicit owner-occupancy figures like "80% owner occupied" or qualitative phrases such as "majority owner occupied." The remarks do not provide any owner-occupancy information, so the percentage remains unknown from the available public remarks.
I searched the remarks for explicit counts like "4 elevators," "multiple elevators," or similar wording. None were provided, so I cannot infer the building-wide elevator count from the public remarks. The references to a private/key elevator appear to describe access control or a unit-specific feature, not the total number of elevators.

Cable TV inclusion is strongly supported across the building. Multiple remarks explicitly list “cable TV” or “basic cable” in the maintenance fee, matching the near-universal MLS pattern (20/20). This looks consistent across many listings rather than a one-off agent error.
There is moderate building-level evidence that common-area electricity is included, with 7/20 MLS records showing OTCOEX. The public remarks mostly mention general electricity being included, not specifically hallway/elevator/common-area power, so this is weaker than the other utility inclusions. Still, the recurring MLS checkbox suggests it is likely a real building feature.
No analysis available
Electricity is one of the strongest-supported inclusions in this building. The MLS data is unanimous (20/20), and remarks repeatedly say things like “maintenance fee includes electricity” or “all utilities — electricity...”. This is highly reliable.
Gas is strongly supported by both MLS data and remarks. Nearly all listings show GAS in the fee inclusions, and several remarks explicitly mention gas range or “maintenance fee includes... gas.” This is high-confidence building-level evidence.
Hot water is well supported by the MLS pattern and by remarks that explicitly include “hot water” in the maintenance fee. The building appears to include it in most listings (19/20), so this is a reliable feature. The one WTRHTR exception is not enough to overturn the overall evidence.
Internet is extremely well supported in the building. The MLS data is unanimous (20/20), and numerous remarks explicitly mention “internet included” or WiFi. This is a highly consistent building-level amenity and likely not a copy-paste mistake.
No analysis available
Sewer is strongly supported by both MLS data and public remarks. Listings commonly say the fee includes “sewer” alongside electricity, water, and gas, which is consistent across multiple agents and property descriptions.
Water inclusion is strongly supported, with 19/20 MLS listings marking it included. Remarks repeatedly state the maintenance fee covers “water” or “all utilities,” making this a reliable building-level feature.

Moderate evidence: although only 1 of 20 MLS checkbox entries lists CONCIE, several listing remarks (at least a few agents) mention "front desk" or "24 hour front desk", implying a staffed front-desk/concierge presence; evidence is consistent in remarks but not widespread in amenity checkboxes, so confidence is moderate.

No public remarks across the collected listings mention a meeting or conference room, while only 3 of 20 current MLS entries list the MEEROO amenity. Evidence appears inconsistent and likely due to individual agents checking the box; insufficient corroboration in remarks to include this as a building-level amenity.

Historical data shows PRIYAR checked in only 1 of 20 listings. Across the many public remarks there are multiple mentions of private beach access and a private deck ('400 + private deck') but zero mentions of a private or fenced yard, enclosed yard, or yard access. Evidence does not support that the building offers private yard space and the single MLS checkbox appears to be a likely copy/paste mistake.

Restaurant is strongly confirmed across the listings: dozens of remarks say Michel's is “located on the ground level,” “in the lobby,” or “downstairs/beach level.” This appears consistently across multiple agents and is not just copy-paste from one source, so confidence is very high.

I searched for surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, and related phrases, and found direct mentions. The remarks clearly confirm surfboard storage facilities on site.
No analysis available
Trash chute has moderate support from the current MLS checkbox data (11 of 20 listings marked TRACHU), but none of the public remarks explicitly confirm a trash chute, garbage chute, or refuse chute. Because the evidence comes from checkbox data rather than listing text, confidence is moderate rather than high.

I searched for saltwater pool language such as "salt water pool," "saltwater," or "saline pool" and found nothing. The building context also indicates there is no pool, so this remains false.
Evidence for in-unit laundry is overwhelming across many listings and multiple remarks, not just a single copy-paste line. At least 16 of 20 historical listings show WASHER/DRYER in inclusions, and current public remarks repeatedly say "in-unit washer/dryer," "built in washer and dryer," and "washer and dryer in the unit."
There is strong evidence the building offers shared/community laundry facilities. Historical MLS data showed COMLAU in 13 of 20 listings, and at least one current remark explicitly mentions a "laundromat downstairs," which aligns with a community laundry room or shared laundry amenity.
I looked for direct payment cues like coin-op, quarters, card-operated, or laundry fees and did not find those exact phrases. Still, the use of "laundromat" is enough to support paid community laundry, albeit with moderate confidence because the payment method is not stated.
I searched for explicit references to laundry facilities on each floor, such as "laundry on every floor" or "laundry room on every floor," and found none. The remarks only mention a laundromat downstairs, which does not support every-floor laundry.
Parking is strongly supported for Colony Surf. Across the provided listings, many remarks explicitly mention parking, including phrases like "assigned parking stall," "parking is assigned," "one assigned parking stall," and "guest parking." This appears consistent across multiple agents and listings, not just a single copy-paste remark.
Parking assigned is supported by many current listings and remarks across the building. Multiple listings explicitly state phrases like 'one assigned parking stall,' 'Parking is assigned,' '1 assigned parking,' and 'assigned parking as needed,' which aligns with the current MLS parking_features data (10/20 showing ASSIGN).
There is little to no remark-level evidence that the building offers covered parking. Only a small number of MLS checkbox entries indicate covered/garage types (3 of 20), but none of the public remarks mention a garage, carport, or covered stalls—suggesting covered parking is not a broadly advertised building feature.
I searched for deeded, owned, included-in-deed, or owned-stall language and found none. The parking is consistently described as assigned or based on availability, which does not indicate deeded parking.
No analysis available
I looked for phrases like parking fee, monthly parking charge, parking rental, or additional parking cost and found nothing explicit. The listings mention assigned parking, but not any separate parking fee.
Multiple listings and remarks confirm guest parking is available: several remarks state "guest parking" or "additional parking for your guests upon availability," and current MLS checkbox data also commonly includes GUEST (12 of 20), indicating the building typically provides guest parking.
Remarks frequently describe the building as secure ("secure entry", "24-hour security", "key elevator"), implying controlled access that may extend to parking; however, there are only a small number of MLS SECENT checkboxes and no detailed remarks stating a gated or card-access parking entrance, so the evidence is moderate and somewhat implied across agents.

I searched for "parking waitlist," "parking waiting list," or similar language and found none. Availability-based assignment is mentioned, but that is not the same as a stated waitlist system.
No analysis available
I looked for card/fob access language including key card, fob, card access, electronic access, and card reader, but found no direct evidence. The remarks mention security and secure entry in general, but not a card-based access system.
Security guard/service is strongly supported for Colony Surf. Across the remarks, multiple listings mention "24-hour security," "security patrol," "secure entry," "secured building," and related phrases, while the current MLS data still shows SECGUA in 15 of 20 listings. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and aligns with the prior high-confidence status.
The remarks directly reference security patrol service, including 24-hour security. That is strong confirmation of patrol-based security at the building.
No analysis available
Multiple MLS fields previously flagged central A/C (4/20 unit_features, 3/20 inclusions) and the public remarks explicitly note 'both apartments have central A/C' in the Grand Penthouse listing (appears twice). Evidence shows central A/C is present in some units (penthouses); while not every unit mentions it, the explicit remark plus MLS checkboxes across listings provide strong confirmation that the building offers central air in at least some units.

Concrete construction is strongly supported by the MLS: 20 of 20 current listings show CONCRE. The remarks consistently refer to Colony Surf as a landmark beachfront building, with no signs of a different construction material, so this appears to be stable building-level data rather than agent copy-paste noise.
Double-wall construction is not supported by the public remarks across the listings reviewed. The MLS checkbox appears only in 2 of 20 current listings, which is too sparse to override the lack of explicit mention, so this is treated as likely noise or copy-paste data rather than a confirmed building characteristic.
No analysis available
6 of 20 current MLS listings include masonry & stucco (MASSTU) in construction_materials, but none of the public remarks mention 'masonry' or 'stucco.' This is limited, possibly inconsistent agent checkboxing, so inclusion is cautious (moderate confidence) reflecting that some listings indicate MASSTU while remarks are silent.
No analysis available
A subset of current MLS listings, 6 out of 20, indicate SLAB, but the public remarks do not explicitly mention a slab foundation. Because the feature appears in some current listings and there is no strong contrary evidence, it is reasonable to retain it with moderate confidence.

The public remarks explicitly allow short-term rentals, repeatedly using language such as "30 day rentals allowed" and "LEGAL SHORT TERM VACATION RENTAL (30 Day Minimum) ALLOWED." This is strong direct evidence that STR is permitted in the building.
I searched for hotel pool language such as hotel rental pool, hotel program, Hilton/Trump/Ritz pool, or similar managed-rental references and found none. Since STR is allowed, this still could have existed, but the remarks do not show any hotel pool participation.
I looked for language indicating mandatory hotel-pool participation, such as "must participate," "required to rent," or "cannot opt out," and found none. The remarks instead point to owner-use and rental flexibility, which argues against a mandatory pool.

No analysis available
I looked for an explicit lease end year such as "lease expires 2050," "ground lease ends in [year]," or similar renewal language and did not find one. The listings do indicate leasehold status, but no 4-digit expiry year is stated.
I searched the public remarks for explicit language such as "VA approved," "VA financing," or "VA loans accepted" and found none. With no direct evidence in the listings, this remains unsupported from the remarks.
I searched the remarks for HOA insurance language such as fully insured, full coverage, or walls-in coverage. The listings discuss maintenance fees and utilities, but they do not mention the building being fully insured. There is therefore no public-remarks evidence for this feature.
No analysis available
I looked for public-remarks language indicating a passed fire/life safety evaluation or related fire inspection compliance. Nothing in the listings mentions FLSE, fire/life safety approval, or a passing inspection, so there is no evidence to mark this true.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Ocean views are very strongly supported at Colony Surf. Across the provided remarks, dozens of listings explicitly mention "ocean views," "Pacific Ocean," "oceanfront," and "direct oceanfront," including several that describe sweeping, panoramic, and unobstructed views. The consistency across many agents and repeated phrasing suggests genuine building-level ocean-view inventory, not a copy-paste anomaly.
There is solid though not universal evidence for mountain views at Colony Surf. Multiple remarks mention “mountains” or “Diamond Head rises on the horizon,” and the current remarks include listings with “ocean, coastline, city, mountains, and Diamond Head views.” The feature appears available in some units, not all.
Diamond Head views are strongly supported at Colony Surf. Many remarks explicitly mention "Diamond Head," "Diamond Head views," "Diamond Head-facing," and "majestic Diamond Head as your backdrop," often alongside ocean views. The feature appears across multiple listings and agents, indicating that Diamond Head-view units are a real and recurring offering in the building.
Present but less dominant: 10/20 MLS entries list city views and remarks mention 'Waikiki skyline'/'city' in a number of listings, indicating some units provide city/Waikiki skyline views.
Coastline views are strongly supported at Colony Surf. Several listings explicitly mention “coastline,” including “ocean, coastline, and Waikiki skyline” and “sweeping views of the Pacific, Diamond Head & Waikiki’s coastline.” The repeated use across multiple remarks suggests this is a real and common building-level view feature.
Insufficient evidence for garden views: only 3/20 MLS entries indicate garden historically and current public remarks do not reference garden or courtyard views, so building-level garden views are not substantiated.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Evidence for sunrise views is limited but present. The current remarks include an east-facing residence and multiple references to morning swims, morning light, and eastern-facing/“cool side” exposure, which suggest sunrise potential in some units. This is not as explicit or widespread as ocean or Diamond Head views, so confidence is moderate.
Moderate-to-strong evidence for sunset views: 11/20 MLS entries and many agent remarks explicitly mention 'sunset views' or 'breathtaking sunsets', indicating the building offers units with western/evening exposure and sunset vistas.
No analysis available
The remarks directly confirm fireworks views from units, not just proximity to fireworks events. Multiple listings mention dazzling fireworks as part of the unit’s view, which is strong evidence.

No analysis available
Resident manager is supported by strong historical MLS evidence, with 17 of 20 listings marked RESMAN. Current remarks mostly mention front desk/security rather than using the exact phrase 'resident manager,' but there is no evidence of removal or correction. Overall, the feature appears to be a stable building amenity and may be under-described in public remarks.
