Hawaiian Monarch
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.
Hawaiian Monarch
Building Overview
Hawaiian Monarch in Waikiki — concrete 1979 building with pool and ocean/mountain views, short-term rentals allowed.
About Hawaiian Monarch
Based on MLS data, Hawaiian Monarch is a concrete high-rise located in Waikiki that was built in 1979. Size details (number of units or floors) are not provided in the available records.
According to available records, the building offers ocean, mountain, and sunset views and includes on-site amenities such as a pool, fitness center, BBQ area, a resident manager, and a security guard. The property is served by six elevators and units use window air conditioning.
Additional MLS-derived details indicate parking is available, pets are not allowed, and short-term rentals are permitted. The management company is listed as unknown in the MLS. Buyers should verify all information, including unit size, fees, policies, and management details, with the listing agent or management prior to making decisions.

The remarks refer to individual units being suitable for an owner-occupant and state that one owner occupies a unit part-time, but these do not establish the building’s owner-occupancy rate. No percentage, majority statement, or other building-level indicator was found.
The public remarks directly confirm six elevators in the Hawaiian Monarch. This matches the current building context and is reasonable for a 43-story, 438-unit building.

MLS checkbox CABTV is present on 11 of 20 current listings and multiple remarks explicitly state either "free Cable and internet" or refer to a TV/Internet line-item (e.g., "Monthly cable fee (TV/Internet) is $36.62"). Several agents mention "basic cable and internet" or "free Cable and internet," though a few listings reference a separate monthly cable/TV line-item, indicating inconsistent reporting across agents.
Strong building-level evidence indicates common area electricity is included in the maintenance fee. Across multiple listings and different agents, remarks repeatedly note electricity being included, which aligns with the MLS inclusion data and looks consistent rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
Multiple public remarks explicitly state "Electricity included in maintenance fees (subject to usage)" across several listings, providing strong and repeated confirmation from different agents that electricity is included in the maintenance fee.
No public remarks mention gas included, and only 2 of 20 MLS entries flag GAS in association_fee_includes. Given the lack of supporting remarks and low MLS prevalence, there is little evidence the maintenance fee routinely covers gas.
Hot water inclusion is moderately supported by the MLS data: 10 of 20 listings have HOTWAT checked in association_fee_includes. The public remarks do not clearly spell out 'hot water included,' so this looks more like MLS checkbox evidence than remark-based confirmation.
Internet inclusion is directly supported across several listings, including phrases like 'free Cable and internet' and 'TV/Internet is $36.62.' The repeated mention across different remarks suggests this is a real building-wide fee item, not just copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly supported by the MLS records, with 18 of 20 listings checking SEWER in association_fee_includes. Public remarks do not discuss sewer often, but the very high checkbox consistency makes this a high-confidence building feature.
Water inclusion is well supported by the MLS data, with 17 of 20 listings marking WATER in association_fee_includes. The remarks mostly focus on rentals and amenities rather than utilities, so the checkbox pattern is the main evidence here.
BBQ/grilling facilities are strongly supported across the building. The current remarks mention this amenity in dozens of listings using phrases such as 'BBQ area,' 'BBQ grills,' 'barbecue area,' 'BBQ deck,' and 'outdoor BBQ's.' This appears to be a genuine shared building amenity consistently referenced by multiple agents, not a copy-paste anomaly.

Exercise/fitness amenities are strongly and repeatedly supported across the remarks. I found many references to 'fitness center,' 'exercise room,' 'gym,' and 'daily gym rates,' spread across numerous listings and agents, which looks consistent rather than copy-paste error.

Strong building-level evidence for patio/deck amenities. Across many listings, agents independently reference shared outdoor spaces including a "massive 5th-floor pool deck," "giant pool deck," "sun deck," "BBQ deck," and "outdoor seating deck." This is consistent across multiple remarks and aligns with the historical MLS amenity data, so the feature should remain included.

There is clear evidence of a recreation area / recreation deck in the building. Several remarks refer to a "recreation deck," "pool recreation area," or similar shared amenity space, usually in the context of the pool deck. While mentioned less often than BBQ or fitness, the repeated references are consistent and credible.
There is no solid evidence of a true recreation room in the remarks. The language is limited to pool/recreation deck or recreation opportunities, which suggests the MLS RECROO checkbox is likely a mismatch rather than a real amenity.
On-site dining is well supported. Many listings mention restaurants in the lobby or building, as well as cafes and eateries, indicating a real restaurant/dining component in the building complex.
No analysis available
Sauna is not supported by the current remarks. Across the many listings reviewed, there are zero explicit references to a sauna or steam room, and the existing MLS support appears minimal and likely unreliable.
No analysis available
The listings frequently discuss Waikiki Beach, surfing, and bicycle rentals. I searched for dedicated surfboard or board-storage facilities, but no qualifying storage mention was found.
No analysis available
Trash chute is not supported by the public remarks. The listings repeatedly describe many amenities but never mention a chute system, suggesting the MLS trash chute checkbox is likely inaccurate.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Whirlpool/hot tub amenities are repeatedly confirmed in the remarks. The building is described with "hot tub," "whirlpool," and "jacuzzi" across many listings, supporting a shared spa-style amenity.
The pool is strongly confirmed for Hawaiian Monarch. It is mentioned in many current remarks across numerous listings, often as part of amenity lists and sometimes with added detail like "pool deck," "swimming pool," or "resort-style pool." The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and clearly not just a one-off copy-paste issue.
No analysis available
Multiple remarks directly describe the building pool as salt water. This provides strong confirmation of the feature.
Very little evidence that any units have in-unit washer/dryer: only 1 of 20 MLS listings lists WASHER/DRYER in inclusions and none of the public remarks (across ~40 remark blocks) mention 'in-unit washer/dryer' or 'in-unit laundry'. Remarks consistently describe shared/coin laundry instead, suggesting the single MLS inclusion is an outlier or agent error.
Community/shared laundry is strongly confirmed for Hawaiian Monarch. Multiple current remarks explicitly mention it across many listings—well over 20 references by agents in phrases such as "community laundry," "laundry facilities," "laundry area," "coin-operated laundromat," and "on-site laundry." The evidence is consistent across listings and appears to reflect a real building amenity rather than copy-paste error.
Multiple remarks directly confirm that the shared laundry requires payment. Both coin-operated and card-paid laundry are mentioned.
The remarks repeatedly confirm community laundry, but they do not support floor-by-floor availability. The specific reference to laundry on the 6th floor does not establish facilities on every floor.
Parking is clearly available at Hawaiian Monarch. Across the listings, many agents explicitly mention garage parking, paid daily/nightly parking, or parking available for a fee, while only a small minority of current MLS records check a parking feature box. The pattern looks like inconsistent MLS checkbox entry, not the absence of parking.
Across the listings, parking is described as available for a fee, nightly, or through an on-site garage, but not as assigned or reserved to a unit. Multiple remarks explicitly say there are no designated residential or guest-only stalls, which strongly argues against assigned parking. The single ASSIGN checkbox appears to be copy-paste MLS noise rather than a real building feature.
Multiple listings (at least 8) explicitly mention a parking garage or garage access and paid daily/nightly parking; one listing includes a management note describing the individually owned parking garage and hourly/24-hour rates. The repeated, agent-written remarks point to covered/garage parking being available (paid), so parking_covered is included with high confidence.
No listing states that a parking stall is deeded to or included with a unit. Instead, the remarks repeatedly describe parking as separately managed and available for a fee, including the statement that parking is not included.
No analysis available
Paid parking is repeatedly confirmed, but the public remarks provide only daily or overnight rates. No specific monthly parking charge was found, so the monthly fee is unknown.

The remarks discuss paid parking availability, individually owned parking, and daily or overnight rates. No evidence was found of a building parking waitlist system.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly confirm card or keyed access for units and elevators. This supports a card/fob-based building security or access system.
Security guard service is strongly supported for Hawaiian Monarch. Well over 15 listings mention it, often in explicit form such as '24-hour security,' '24-hr security,' '24H security on site,' and 'secured building.' The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and agents, so this appears to be a real building-wide feature rather than copy-paste error.
The building is clearly described as staffed or monitored for security, consistent with the existing security_guard context. No specific patrol-service language was found, so the remarks do not support marking security patrol as present.

Window air conditioning appears to be a consistent Hawaiian Monarch feature across the listings. Historical MLS data was unanimous (20/20), and current remarks include explicit confirmation such as "new window A/C" plus multiple renovation notes that are consistent with unit-level AC. The evidence is strong and does not look like a one-off agent copy-paste error.
Concrete construction is strongly supported by the MLS history for Hawaiian Monarch: 16 of 20 current listings show CONCRE in construction_materials. None of the public remarks suggest a change away from concrete, and the building’s repeated high-rise condo-hotel listings are consistent with concrete construction. Evidence appears to be MLS-wide rather than a one-off agent note.
Very limited MLS checkbox signal (only 1 of 20 current listings checked 'DOUWAL') and no public remarks mention 'double wall' or similar. Given lack of historical support and absence in remarks, the single checkbox likely reflects an agent error/copy-paste rather than a building feature.
No analysis available
3 of 20 current MLS records list construction as 'MASSTU', but none of the public remarks mention masonry or stucco. Historical confidence was Low and the limited MLS checkbox entries may reflect inconsistent agent input rather than clear building-level construction confirmation.
Steel frame construction is not supported by the remarks, and the current MLS evidence is extremely thin at 1 of 20 listings. Because there is no explicit building-wide confirmation and no sign of a recent structural change, the checkbox appears unreliable and the feature is treated as absent.

There is no meaningful public-remarks support for above-ground construction across the listings, and the MLS signal is very weak at just 3 of 20. Because agents often copy/paste unchecked or speculative construction flags without verification, this feature is best treated as absent for now.

The listings repeatedly and directly confirm that Hawaiian Monarch permits legal short-term and vacation rentals. Remarks also reference Airbnb, VRBO, registration with DPP, and an exemption allowing rentals of less than 30 days.
The public remarks explicitly identify a hotel pool rental program as an available management option. This is consistent with the confirmed short-term-rental eligibility of the building.
The hotel rental pool is presented as an optional alternative rather than a requirement. Listings repeatedly describe independent owner use, Airbnb operation, and flexible short- or long-term rental strategies, with no evidence that participation is mandatory.

The remarks directly identify the lease expiration date as August 1, 2054. Other remarks reference leasehold ownership and fee-simple conversion but provide no later renewal or extension date.
The public remarks extensively discuss investment financing potential and short-term rentals but do not state that the building is VA loan approved. No evidence was found supporting VA financing eligibility.
The remarks discuss maintenance fees, utilities, amenities, and rental operations but provide no evidence about HOA insurance coverage. There is also no explicit denial of full insurance.
Evidence strongly supports fire sprinklers at Hawaiian Monarch. Historical MLS data showed strong support, and a current listing explicitly confirms that 'both the units and common areas are equipped with a fire sprinkler system.' This appears to be a direct amenity confirmation rather than copy-paste noise.
The remarks mention fire sprinkler systems, 24-hour security, keyed elevators, and general building safety, but none confirms that an FLSE was passed. No qualifying language such as “FLSE passed,” “fire safety certified,” or “life safety compliant” was found.
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 strongly supported across many listings, with dozens of remarks explicitly mentioning "ocean," "partial ocean," "Pacific Ocean," or similar phrasing. The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents and stack types, so this is not just copy-paste noise. This building clearly offers units with ocean views.
Mountain views are strongly supported across the building. At least 12 of 20 MLS listings include mountain-related view descriptions, and many remarks explicitly mention "mountains," "mountain views," or "mountain and city" views, often across multiple agents and stacks. This does not look like a one-off copy-paste error; it appears to be a real building-level view characteristic for some units.
Diamond Head views are mentioned repeatedly throughout the remarks, often in combination with ocean and canal views. Multiple listings reference "Diamond Head views" or "view of Diamond Head crater," showing broad support across several agents and unit stacks. This is strong building-level evidence that Diamond Head views are available.
City views are very well supported in the Hawaiian Monarch. At least 15 of 20 MLS listings reference city-related views, and current remarks repeatedly use phrases like "city skyline," "city lights at night," and "Honolulu skyline." The consistency across many listings suggests this is a genuine and commonly marketed feature, not just agent copy-paste noise.
Coastline views are less frequently stated than ocean or Diamond Head, but there is direct language such as "sparkling coastline" and related shoreline/ocean-facing descriptions. The evidence is moderate rather than overwhelming, yet it is sufficient to keep the feature enabled because buyers searching for coastline views would reasonably find applicable units in this building. The phrasing appears in public remarks rather than being limited to MLS checkbox copy.
No analysis available
Golf course views are well supported by multiple listings, especially remarks referencing the Ala Wai Golf Course directly. The feature appears on several stacks and is reinforced by repeated descriptions rather than isolated or dubious MLS checkbox data.
Marina/canal-type views are clearly present in the building. At least 13 of 20 listings reference canal or marina-adjacent views, with many remarks saying "Ala Wai Canal," "canal views," or "Ala Wai Canal and marina." The repeated mention across multiple listings and stacks strongly supports this as a real building-level view offering for some units.
Multiple remarks explicitly reference 'sunrise views,' 'beautiful sunrise view,' 'Wake up watching the beautiful sunrise to start your day,' and 'your daily Waikiki sunrise,' indicating eastern exposures in some stacks.
Several listings explicitly mention 'beautiful sunset views', 'sunset views facing the canal', or evening sights like 'Friday night fireworks', indicating that some units have western/sunset exposure. While MLS checkbox counts show 0/20 for SUNSET, repeated remark mentions across listings support including view_sunset for the building.
No analysis available
The remarks explicitly confirm Friday night fireworks views from a unit window. This satisfies the requirement for a building/unit view rather than merely being near the fireworks.

No analysis available
Evidence strongly supports a resident/on-site manager at Hawaiian Monarch. Multiple listings mention 'on-site manager,' 'General Manager on site,' or an existing property manager, which is consistent across several agents and not just a single remark. The repeated references make this a stable building-level feature.
