Building Features & Data Confidence

No analysis available
The public remarks directly confirm the owner-occupancy rate as 80%, matching the building context. This is a clear explicit statement, so the value remains 80 with very high confidence.
I searched the public remarks for direct elevator-count language such as "4 elevators," "four elevators," or "multiple elevators," but found no number. The only elevator-related wording was directional or descriptive, which is not enough to determine the total count.
Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.
No analysis available
Cable TV appears to be included in the maintenance fees. Nineteen of twenty current listings mark CABTV, which is a very strong building-level signal even though the remarks rarely mention cable explicitly.
Common area electricity appears to be included, though with less consistency than water/sewer/cable. Thirteen of twenty listings mark OTCOEX, so the signal is real but not as strong as the most consistent fee inclusions.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Gas inclusion is supported by 14 of 20 current listings and reinforced by several public remarks mentioning “gas cooking,” “gas range,” and “gas cooktop.” While this is not as universal as sewer/water, the combination of MLS data and repeated remarks makes inclusion likely. Some of the remarks may reflect unit appliances rather than the HOA fee, so confidence is strong but not absolute.
Hot water is very likely not included in the maintenance fee. Only one of twenty current listings marks HOTWAT, while seventeen of twenty explicitly list WTRHTR, a strong indicator that hot water is unit-supplied rather than building-provided.
Internet appears to be included in the maintenance fees. Sixteen of twenty current listings mark INTSER, making this a strong building-level amenity even though the remarks rarely call it out.
No analysis available
Sewer is almost certainly included in maintenance fees. Nineteen of twenty current listings mark SEWER, indicating a highly consistent building-level inclusion.
Water is almost certainly included in maintenance fees. Nineteen of twenty current listings mark WATER, which is a very strong and consistent signal across the building's MLS records.
BBQ facilities are repeatedly confirmed across the listings. Remarks reference '5 BBQ cabanas,' 'BBQ areas,' 'barbecue areas,' and 'cabanas & grills,' showing clear, repeated evidence of a shared amenity.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Car wash facilities appear in a minority of MLS records, so this is less certain than the core amenities. Because remarks do not explicitly confirm it, this may be an inconsistently checked building feature, but the current MLS data is enough to keep it included for now.
No analysis available
Concierge service is well supported by both MLS data and public remarks. Multiple listings describe 'concierge services' or 'concierge service,' and one notes an 'exceptional concierge and management team,' indicating this is a genuine building-level amenity. The repeated wording across listings suggests broad confirmation rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Dog amenity space is strongly confirmed. Remarks reference 'dog park,' 'two dog parks,' and 'dog run,' which aligns with the repeated MLS amenity flag and suggests a genuine shared pet area.
No analysis available
Exercise room/fitness center is strongly supported by both MLS history and public remarks. Multiple listings call out a 'fitness center,' 'state-of-the-art fitness center,' 'world class gym,' and 'well equipped Fitness Center,' indicating this is a consistent shared amenity rather than a one-off agent error.
No analysis available
Meeting/community space is well supported across the listings. Several remarks mention a 'meeting room,' 'party room,' or similar shared room, which matches the strong MLS history.
Strong evidence that Hokua offers patio/deck-style outdoor amenities at the building level. Across the provided remarks, many listings mention shared outdoor spaces such as "BBQ cabanas," "ocean terrace," "recreation deck," and "terrace cabanas & grills," while some units also reference a "lanai" or "deck." The repeated wording across many listings suggests this is not a copy-paste anomaly but a real building amenity.

The building clearly offers a shared recreation/amenity area. Listings mention a 'recreation deck,' 'Ocean Terrace,' and 'ocean terrace party room,' indicating a common leisure space available to residents.
Recreation room is well supported, though the wording varies across listings. Public remarks reference 'recreation room,' 'Ocean Terrace Room,' and a 'new remodeled ocean terrace party room,' which aligns with the MLS amenity pattern.
Although fewer MLS checkboxes (8/20), multiple remarks explicitly note on-site restaurants and name ground-floor dining (e.g., 'Restaurant Tango', 'Panya Bistro'), indicating on-property dining is available; confidence is high enough to include.
No analysis available
Sauna is one of the most consistently confirmed amenities in the dataset. Remarks repeatedly mention 'sauna' and 'well equipped with sauna,' matching the perfect MLS coverage.
Storage is strongly supported for this building. Across the provided remarks, many listings explicitly mention storage in multiple forms, including "Private Storage Lockers," "storage included," "storage locker all on parking level 2," "large storage room," and "additional storage locker." This appears consistently across different agents rather than a one-off copy/paste note.
I looked for explicit surfboard storage or related board storage references. The listings mention storage lockers and storage rooms, but nothing specifically for surfboards.
Tennis facilities are very consistently supported. Multiple listings mention 'tennis court,' 'tennis/pickleball courts,' and 'tennis courts,' making this a clear building amenity despite minor MLS variation.
Trash chute appears to be a real building feature based on the very strong MLS history. Even though the public remarks do not call it out, 19 of 20 listings check the amenity, which is strong enough to keep it included.
MLS amenity checkbox shows VALET on 8 of 20 current listings and several public remarks explicitly reference valet/valet parking (quotes include "valet service" and "valet parking"). At least four different listings mention valet in the public remarks, and the mentions come from multiple agent write-ups rather than a single repeated copy, providing strong evidence that the building offers valet service.
No analysis available
Whirlpool/jacuzzi/spa amenities are clearly supported by the listing remarks and MLS history. Listings mention 'jacuzzi,' 'hot tub,' and 'whirlpool spa,' which is strong evidence of a shared amenity.
Very strong building-level evidence supports pool access at Hokua. Pool amenities are referenced across many listings by multiple agents, including phrases like "heated swimming pool," "lap pool," "infinity edge pool," and "sparkling pool and jacuzzi." The repeated mentions across current remarks align with the MLS amenity data and look consistent rather than incidental copy-paste noise.
Substantial evidence that the building’s pool is heated: 15/20 MLS listings flag HEAPOO and several public remarks explicitly use terms like “heated swimming pool” and “heated pool.” Mentions are present across multiple listings/agents, aligning with the MLS amenity flags and indicating a building-level heated pool amenity.
I searched for salt water, saltwater, saline, or salt pool references. The remarks mention many pool amenities, but none identify the pool as salt water, so there is no evidence for this feature.
Strong evidence confirms in-unit laundry at this building. The MLS currently shows WASHER/DRYER in inclusions across all 20 listings, and several remarks explicitly mention a 'laundry room' or 'spacious laundry room.' This is consistent across multiple listings/agents and does not look like a mistaken copy-paste checkbox.
No analysis available
I looked for language indicating coin laundry, card-operated machines, laundry fees, or quarters. The listings do not mention paid community laundry at all, and the laundry references appear to be private/unit laundry.
I searched for explicit references to laundry on each floor, floor-by-floor laundry, or community laundry rooms on every level. The remarks only describe in-unit laundry rooms or spacious laundry rooms, so there is no evidence this feature exists.
No analysis available
Assigned/reserved parking is strongly supported across the listing set. Multiple remarks specify exact stall counts and placement, such as '3 parking stalls,' '2 secure parking,' and 'a single stall and 2 tandem stalls,' which is consistent with building-level assigned parking rather than a copy-paste error. This appears well established across many listings.
Covered parking is effectively confirmed by both MLS data and remarks. Several listings explicitly mention stalls being on parking levels or describe them as 'covered,' and the MLS data is unanimous for covered/garage indicators. Confidence is extremely high that the building offers covered parking.
The listings consistently describe parking as included with the unit/sale, and several remarks specify multiple stalls tied to the residence. While the word "deeded" is not explicit, the repeated inclusion language strongly supports owned/deeded parking.
No analysis available
I searched for any reference to parking charges, rental fees, or additional monthly costs and found none. The remarks instead emphasize parking stalls being included, so no fee can be confirmed.
Guest parking is supported by both MLS checkbox data and explicit listing remarks. One listing directly says 'Guest parking,' while multiple others emphasize guest-friendly amenities and services, which aligns with a building that offers visitor parking. This is strong building-level evidence rather than a one-off unit feature.
Secured-entry parking appears to be a real building feature. Several remarks explicitly mention secure parking stalls or secure parking access, and the MLS data also shows a strong secured-entry signal across many listings. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and does not look like isolated copy-paste noise.
Both MLS checkbox data (4/20) and remarks contain explicit tandem references — examples include '2 tandem stalls' and 'tandem stalls' in unit descriptions. Those direct statements across multiple listings indicate that some parking stalls in the building are tandem.
No analysis available
I looked for wording about joining a parking waitlist or parking being waitlisted and found nothing. The listings focus on included stalls, so there is no evidence of a waitlist system.
No analysis available
I looked for public remarks describing card/fob access or electronic entry systems. The listings describe a secure building with staff and security, but do not mention card-based access.
Security guard service is strongly supported for Hokua at 1288 Ala Moana. Multiple remarks explicitly reference "24/7 security" and describe the building as "secure," while historical MLS data shows 20/20 listings with SECGUA checked. The evidence appears consistent across many agents and is not likely a copy-paste error.
I searched for wording like security patrol, roving security, or patrolled building. The remarks mention 24/7 security, guards, concierge, and resident manager, but not patrol service specifically.
No analysis available
Central air conditioning is strongly supported at the building level. The current MLS data shows 20/20 listings marked with ACCEN/CENAC, and multiple remarks explicitly mention it, including "a new central A/C system" and "Central A/C." This appears to be a building-wide amenity, not a copy-paste anomaly, because it is reinforced across many listings and matches the historical high-confidence signal.

No analysis available
Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. The MLS materials flag CONCRE in 19 of 20 listings, and the remarks across many agents are consistent with a concrete high-rise profile rather than a copied-in error.
There is moderate evidence for double-wall construction based on MLS materials, with 12 of 20 listings marking DOUWAL. The remarks do not corroborate it, so this looks more like MLS checkbox data than explicit public confirmation, but it is still enough to support inclusion at medium confidence.
Only 2 of 20 MLS listings include 'HOLTIL' (hollow tile). Public remarks make no mention of hollow tile construction; this sparse MLS reporting suggests hollow tile is possible for parts of the building but evidence is weak and could be agent checklist variance.
No analysis available
11 of 20 MLS listings include 'STEFRA' (steel frame) as a construction material. Public remarks are silent about structure; multiple listings claim steel frame, suggesting steel-frame elements or classification, but the evidence is moderate and may reflect inconsistent agent checklist usage.
There is not enough evidence to support a slab foundation for the building. Only 3 of 20 listings show SLAB in MLS materials, and the public remarks across listings do not explicitly mention a concrete slab or foundation detail, so this appears to be weak or mistaken MLS data.

I searched for STR indicators such as "short-term rental allowed," "NUC," "TVU," or similar language and found no support. No remark suggests short-term rentals are allowed in the building.
I looked for hotel pool references like Hilton, Ritz, Trump, or a hotel rental program and found none. Because STR is not supported by the remarks, hotel pool participation is also not supported.
I searched for wording such as mandatory pool, required rental program, or cannot opt out and found nothing. With no STR or rental-pool evidence, mandatory participation is not supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I looked for ground lease, leasehold, lease expiry, or renewal language such as "lease expires 2050" or "renewed through 2075" and found nothing. Since no lease year is mentioned, the value remains unknown.
I searched the public remarks for explicit VA language such as "VA approved" and "VA financing" and found none. With no public-remarks evidence, this is treated as not supported.
I searched the remarks for HOA insurance or walls-in coverage language, but nothing in the listings states the building is fully insured. With no current value supplied and no public-remark evidence, this is treated as false with modest confidence.
Fire sprinklers appear to be a building feature based on current MLS amenity data: 17 of 20 listings include FIRSPR. None of the public remarks explicitly mention fire sprinkler systems or fire suppression, so this is supported primarily by the MLS pattern rather than remark confirmation.
I looked for explicit building compliance language related to fire/life safety evaluation, including FLSE or passed-fire-inspection phrasing, and found none. Because there is no current verified value provided and no remark evidence, this is set to false with low-to-moderate confidence per the rules.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Ocean views are a core building feature with overwhelming evidence across the listings. Multiple remarks from different agents describe 'ocean views,' 'unobstructed ocean views,' 'Pacific Ocean views,' and 'blue ocean views from every room,' so this appears to be a consistent building-wide selling point rather than a copy-paste anomaly.
Mountain views are present in a meaningful subset of units. Several listings explicitly reference 'sweeping ocean and mountain views,' 'awe-inspiring ocean or mountain view,' and 'all bedroom facing to cool mountain side,' which supports the building offering mountain-view units.
Multiple listings explicitly reference Diamond Head—phrases include 'Diamond Head views', 'sweeping views from Diamond Head to the Ewa planes', and 'uninterrupted views of Oahu's most celebrated landmark Diamond Head'. Evidence is strong across many agent remarks, supporting that the building offers Diamond Head-view units.
City views appear to be available in some units, though the evidence is weaker than for ocean or sunset views. The listings are not uniformly explicit, but the MLS view data and phrases like 'city living' and 'urban scene' suggest city-oriented outlooks are part of the building's offering.
Strong evidence across listings: 15 of 20 MLS descriptions show COASTL and many remarks state 'coastline', 'Ala Moana Beach Park', 'Magic Island' and 'coastline views from Diamond Head to Ala Wai Harbor'. Multiple agents describe panoramic coastal/shoreline vistas, indicating the building offers coastline-view units.
Garden-type views appear in a smaller subset of units and are supported mostly through park/greenery references. The evidence is moderate, with phrases like 'lush greenery' and 'green open space' suggesting landscaped or park views that align with the garden-view concept.
No analysis available
Marina/harbor views are clearly supported for some units. Multiple remarks reference 'Ala Wai Harbor to Ala Moana Beach Park,' 'Kewalo Boat Harbor,' and 'the boat harbor,' indicating these are real view options rather than generic marketing language.
Sunrise views are plausible for some units, but the evidence is more implied than explicit. The MLS data shows a meaningful number of sunrise references, while remarks such as 'east to west views' and certain orientation comments suggest eastern-facing exposure in parts of the building.
Sunset views are a major, well-supported feature of the building. Multiple listings independently describe 'breathtaking sunsets,' 'year-round sunsets,' and sunset views over Ala Moana Beach Park, making this a highly reliable building characteristic.
No analysis available
Multiple remarks directly confirm fireworks views from units/building, not merely proximity to fireworks. The language is explicit and repeated, so this feature is strongly supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Resident manager is very strongly supported: 20 of 20 current MLS listings include RESMAN, and several remarks explicitly reference on-site management, including phrases like 'the professional staff and resident manager prioritize' and 'congenial on-site staff.' The evidence is consistent across multiple listings and does not look like a one-off copy-paste error.
