Ilikai Apt Building
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 searched for explicit owner-occupancy language such as a percentage, "majority owner occupied," or similar building-wide wording and found none. The remarks frequently emphasize hotel program use, vacation rentals, and investor ownership, but that does not establish a building-wide rate. Per rules, the current value is kept because there is no direct contrary evidence.
I searched the public remarks for an explicit elevator count or a clear building-level description of the elevator setup and found none. The only mention was a generic note that being near the lobby level is helpful when the elevators are busy, which suggests elevators exist but does not confirm the number. Per rules, the current value is kept.

Cable inclusion is strongly supported across the building. About 13 of 20 MLS records show CABTV, and many remarks repeat the same pattern with phrases like "includes cable TV fee" and "cable fee." The repeated wording across many listings suggests this is not a one-off agent note.
Common-area electricity appears to be included at the building level. The MLS pattern is fairly strong and the remarks reinforce it with direct language such as “common area expenses” being covered, suggesting this is not just an agent typo.
No analysis available
Remarks repeatedly describe unit electricity as a charge on the HOA/maintenance invoice rather than a separate utility account. Even where it is “separately metered,” it is still billed via the association, indicating that electricity is provided and collected through the maintenance billing structure.
Very limited MLS checkbox presence for gas (2 of 20 records) and no agent remarks indicating "gas included" or similar; given the lack of supporting public-remarks evidence, gas inclusion appears not to be a standard building-level maintenance inclusion.
Hot water appears to be included in the HOA/maintenance fee. The MLS pattern is very strong at 16 of 20 listings showing HOTWAT, and at least one remark explicitly says the fee covers "hot water." The absence of WTRHTR across listings supports this as a building-level feature rather than a unit-level water-heater detail.
Internet inclusion is supported, though not as universally as water or sewer. Roughly 12 of 20 MLS records show INTSER, and remarks explicitly mention a monthly "cable TV and Wi‑Fi" or "cable/internet" fee. The evidence points to a real building-level service, but with some inconsistency in how agents report it.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is essentially confirmed for the building. The MLS data is near-unanimous at 18 of 20 listings, and the remarks include an explicit statement that maintenance covers "sewer." This looks like a stable building-level HOA inclusion rather than copy-paste noise.
Water inclusion is extremely well supported. The MLS pattern shows 18 of 20 listings including WATER, and at least one remark explicitly says the fee covers "water." This is consistent across multiple listings and agents, so confidence is very high.

No listing remarks reference a clubhouse, club house, community center, or recreation center space despite very detailed amenity descriptions. With 19/20 listings not checking CLUHOU and no textual support, this appears to be an incorrect recent checkbox selection, so the building is treated as not having a clubhouse-style facility.
Concierge service is strongly supported for the Ilikai. Multiple current remarks explicitly say "concierge service" or "concierge services," matching the already high MLS confidence. The repeated mention across separate listings indicates this is a genuine shared building amenity rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
Direct doorman wording is scarce, but multiple remarks point to a staffed lobby experience: "front desk," "bellman," and "valet service" appear alongside hotel-style operations. This suggests the building offers a doorman/lobby-attendant function, but the evidence is more implied than explicit. Because the MLS support is only moderate and the language is inconsistent, confidence is below the other amenities.
Strong, repeated evidence confirms the Ilikai has an exercise room/fitness center. Across the provided remarks, many listings explicitly mention "fitness center," "exercise room," or "24 hour fitness center," suggesting this is a real shared building amenity rather than a copied checkbox. The consistency across multiple listings and agents makes this very high confidence.
No analysis available
I found no credible public-remarks evidence that the Ilikai has a meeting room or conference room. Across the provided listings, amenities repeatedly mention pools, on-site dining, shops, and valet/security, but no meeting/conference/community room is described.
Patio/deck is very strongly supported. Dozens of listings mention a lanai, balcony, covered lanai, or deck, including phrases like "spacious lanai," "large lanai," and "oceanfront deck." The evidence is consistent across many listings and appears to be genuine building/unit availability rather than copy-paste noise.
There is no convincing evidence of a dedicated jogging or walking path amenity at the Ilikai. Remarks refer to beach access, walking to Waikiki/Ala Moana, and a direct pathway down to the beach, which reads as access/egress rather than a building jogging path.
No analysis available
No public remarks (0 of the sampled listings) mention 'private yard', 'fenced yard', or equivalent; listings consistently describe lanais/balconies, not private yard space. Current MLS shows 1/20 listings with PRIYAR (likely erroneous) while agent text provides no supporting evidence, so the building should not be considered to offer private yard space.
No analysis available
The Ilikai appears to have a shared recreation/amenity area. Across the listings, there are repeated references to a "sun deck," "recreation area," lounge areas, and resort-style common spaces, which is consistent with a building-level amenity rather than a unit-specific feature. The MLS history (9/20 with RECARE) supports this as a real shared feature.
No listings' public remarks describe a dedicated recreation/rec/game room. MLS checkbox appears in only 1 of 20 current listings (new flag), and there is no historical confirmation in remarks — evidence points to an isolated/erroneous checkbox rather than a real shared recreation room.
Restaurant/dining is heavily supported across the listings, with many remarks explicitly stating the Ilikai has 'two restaurants,' 'on-site dining,' and a mix of eateries/cafes. This is consistent across many agents and appears to be a stable building amenity rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
Historical data strongly indicated a sauna/spa amenity; current MLS has a few SAUNA checks (2/20) but the public remarks here do not explicitly mention "sauna" or "steam room." Given prior high-confidence records and limited present checklist indications, the building likely offers a sauna, but evidence is implied rather than explicitly described in the current remarks.
Building-level on-site storage rentals are supported by historical high-confidence data and confirmed in current remarks. Multiple listings (several agent remarks) explicitly state "monthly storage available for rent" or "monthly parking and storage available for rent," and 3 of 20 current MLS listings list storage in building amenities; evidence is consistent across different agents rather than appearing to be a single copy/paste error.
I searched for surfboard-storage-related phrases such as "surfboard storage," "board storage," and "surf storage," but found nothing explicit. The listings mention general storage and storage for rent, but that is not evidence of dedicated surfboard storage facilities.
I found no public-remarks evidence that the Ilikai has tennis court facilities. The current MLS data only shows TENCOU in 1/20 listings, which is too sparse to overcome the complete lack of mention in the remarks. This suggests the amenity is probably being checked incorrectly in MLS rather than reflecting an actual building feature.
Trash chute is supported mainly by the MLS amenity data rather than the public remarks. In the remarks provided, there are no explicit references to a "trash chute," "garbage chute," or "refuse chute," so this appears to be a building-level MLS feature that agents may not bother mentioning in copy. The current 9/20 checkbox rate suggests it is present, but the evidence is weaker than for features directly described in remarks.
Valet service is well supported across the listings. Multiple remarks explicitly mention "valet parking" and "valet service," often alongside other building amenities such as pools, restaurants, and concierge. The repeated references across many listings make this a strong building-level feature.
No analysis available
There is explicit evidence of whirlpool-style amenities in the building. A few listings mention "jacuzzis" or "jacuzzi" in the amenity list, which is enough to confirm the feature even though it appears less frequently than the fitness or dining amenities.
The pool feature is overwhelmingly supported across the listing set. Dozens of remarks explicitly reference building pools, including phrases like "two swimming pools," "heated pools," "sparkling pool," and "pool deck," showing consistent support from multiple agents rather than a single copy-paste source. Current MLS amenities also show pool in 20/20 listings, so confidence is extremely high.
Heated pool is strongly supported for the Ilikai. Several remarks explicitly say "heated main pool," "heated pools," or "two heated swimming pools," which confirms more than just generic pool access. While not every listing mentions heating, the repeated explicit phrasing across multiple remarks supports this as a real shared amenity.
I searched the public remarks for direct salt-pool language such as "salt water pool," "saltwater pool," "saline pool," and "salt pool," but found none. The listings do mention pools and lagoon/ocean views, but that is not evidence the pool water is salt-based.
Several public remarks across listings (about 6 listings) explicitly note in-unit laundry—quotes include “grandfathered in WASHER/DRYER in unit,” “in-unit washer/dryer,” and “unit has it's own washer and dryer.” Evidence is consistent that some units (likely grandfathered/rare) include washers/dryers in-unit, but the MLS inclusion checkbox is present on few listings, so confidence is moderate-high rather than maximum.
Community/shared laundry is strongly supported for the Ilikai. Multiple current listings explicitly mention it in varied wording, including "community laundry area," "self-service laundry on each floor," and "coin-operated laundry room on each floor," which aligns with the existing MLS amenity data. The evidence is consistent across many listings and appears to reflect a real building feature rather than copy-paste noise.
The remarks clearly indicate community laundry requires payment. I searched for coin-op, card-operated, quarters, and similar language, and found direct matches.
Public remarks repeatedly confirm that community laundry is available on every floor. I looked for floor-by-floor laundry language, and the listings explicitly mention laundry rooms on each floor in several places.
Parking is clearly available at the Ilikai. Across many current listings, agents mention it directly with phrases like "valet parking," "valet service for parking," "garage parking available (fee)," and "monthly parking and storage are available for rent." The evidence is strong across multiple remarks and appears consistent rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Several listings reference parking, but only a small subset explicitly suggests assigned or secured parking. The strongest phrasing is "a monthly paid parking space is currently secured," while other remarks mention valet parking or parking available for rent, which is weaker evidence for assigned stalls. Overall, the feature appears to exist for some units in the building, but the evidence is limited and not broadly repeated across remarks.
Covered parking is strongly supported across the current remarks, with many listings referencing "valet parking," "garage parking available (fee)," and monthly parking spaces. The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste error, and it aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS data.
I searched for 'deeded parking,' 'owned stall,' 'parking included,' and similar wording. The remarks only indicate parking may be paid or rented, which does not support deeded parking.
No analysis available
I looked for any explicit monthly parking charge. The listings clearly show parking is not included and is available for a fee, but they do not provide a specific monthly amount, so the value is recorded as a descriptive fee indication rather than a number.

I searched for 'parking waitlist,' 'parking waiting list,' and similar phrases. The remarks discuss paid parking and valet service, but nothing suggests a formal waitlist system for parking.

I looked for card/fob access wording such as "key card access," "fob access," "card reader," and "keycard entry," but did not find any direct references. One listing mentions "door code entry," which is access-related but not the same as a building card/fob security system.
Security guard service is strongly supported for the Ilikai. Across the current remarks, multiple listings explicitly mention "24-hour security," "24/7 Security," "security guards," or "on-site security," indicating this is a real building amenity rather than a copy-paste error. The evidence is consistent across many agents and aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS data.
I searched for terms like "security patrol," "roving security," and "patrolled building," but found none. The remarks do mention 24-hour security, security guards, and resident manager service, which indicates security presence but not patrol service specifically.
No analysis available
Historical data and prior review showed no building-wide central air. In the current remarks, 1 of ~20 listings explicitly says 'Central AC', while dozens repeatedly mention 'split A/C', 'ductless', or 'split-system' (e.g., 'split A/C', 'ductless A/C', 'Split A/C (sub metered)'). MLS unit checkbox for central AC is unchecked across listings (0/20), so evidence strongly indicates no building-wide central air system.
Split AC is strongly confirmed for this building. Dozens of current remarks explicitly mention it, often in consistent copy-paste language such as 'split A/C,' 'split AC system,' 'ductless A/C system,' and even 'brand new Split AC System installed Sep 2025,' indicating the feature is real and broadly associated with the building rather than a one-off agent error.
Evidence supports window AC at the building level, but it appears in only a small minority of listings. Historical MLS data showed ACWIUN in 2/20 current listings, and one current public remark explicitly says the unit includes a "window air conditioning unit." Most other remarks mention split or ductless AC instead, so this does not look like a building-wide feature for every unit.
Concrete construction is strongly supported by the MLS record for this building. 19 of 20 current listings show CONCRE in construction_materials, which is a very strong building-level signal. The public remarks do not explicitly mention construction type, but nothing suggests a change or correction.
There is no meaningful public-remarks support for double-wall construction at the Ilikai. Across the many listings reviewed, agents describe views, renovations, rental program details, and amenities, but none explicitly mention double-wall construction or anything equivalent. The scattered MLS checkbox data looks like inconsistent agent entry rather than verified building information.

Steel frame appears in just 1 of 20 MLS records while none of the dozens of public remarks mention steel-frame construction. Given the isolated MLS checkbox and lack of corroborating remarks or historical support, the single STEFRA entry is likely a data error and the building should be considered not steel-frame.
There is no meaningful support in the public remarks for a slab foundation at the Ilikai. The current listings overwhelmingly discuss unit renovations, views, and hotel/rental operations, but none explicitly describe a concrete slab foundation. Given the lack of remarks support and the weak checkbox signal, this feature should remain excluded.

Across the remarks provided, none explicitly mention the building being constructed above ground or reference above-ground materials/construction. With only 5 of 20 current MLS listings carrying ABOGRO and no corroborating remark evidence, the tag appears likely to be copy/paste noise rather than a reliable building feature.

The remarks repeatedly and explicitly confirm that short-term rentals are allowed in the Ilikai. Phrases such as 'legal daily vacation rentals,' 'short-term rentals are allowed,' and 'resort zoned' provide strong support for this value.
The public remarks clearly show participation in a hotel-style rental pool/program, with repeated references to Aqua-Aston, Ilikai Hotel Pool Program, and hotel-managed rental arrangements. This is strongly supported across many listings.
The remarks repeatedly indicate the hotel pool is optional rather than required. Multiple listings say owners can self-manage or use third-party management, which directly contradicts a mandatory pool arrangement.

No analysis available
I looked for ground lease, leasehold, lease expiry, lease ends, renewed through, or any 4-digit lease expiration year. The remarks do not mention land tenure expiration details, so the lease expiry year cannot be extracted from public remarks.
I searched the remarks for explicit VA-related language such as 'VA approved,' 'VA financing,' or 'VA loans accepted' and found none. The listings repeatedly discuss seller financing, legal STR use, and hotel/rental program participation, but nothing indicates VA loan eligibility.
I looked for insurance-related phrases indicating HOA walls-in coverage or full building insurance, but the remarks do not mention insurance status. There is no explicit evidence to mark the building as fully insured, so this remains unconfirmed and defaults to false due to lack of mentions.
Fire sprinkler system is strongly supported for the Ilikai. Current MLS data shows FIRSPR in 19 of 20 listings, and at least one listing explicitly says 'there are sprinkler systems in the building.' The evidence is consistent across listings and appears to be building-level, not a copy-paste anomaly.
I searched for fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE, fire inspection pass, and compliance/certification wording, but found nothing in the remarks. Since there is no current value to preserve and no direct mention, this remains unconfirmed and is treated as false with low-to-moderate confidence based on absence of evidence.
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 strongly established across the building and are confirmed in many current remarks. Roughly 15+ listings mention "ocean," "Pacific Ocean," "direct ocean view," or similar phrases, often alongside lagoon, marina, sunset, or Diamond Head views. The language is consistent across multiple remarks and agents, so this appears to be a real building-wide feature rather than MLS copy-paste noise.
Mountain views are repeatedly confirmed in the Ilikai. About 7 of 20 current listings explicitly mention mountains, including "Ko'olau mountains," "Koolau Mountains," and "city and mountain views." These references appear in multiple distinct remarks and align with the MLS data.
Diamond Head views are repeatedly confirmed in the remarks. Multiple listings describe 'Diamond Head views' or similar phrases, indicating a legitimate building feature available in some units.
City views are a recurring feature in the current remarks, with about 10+ listings referencing "city views," "city skyline," "city lights," or "Waikiki skyline." Several remarks pair city views with mountain views, indicating the building offers both ocean-side and city-side outlooks depending on stack and floor. The repetition across multiple listings suggests this is a genuine building feature, not just isolated agent wording.
Coastline views are supported, though not as universally as ocean views. Multiple remarks explicitly mention 'coastline views,' 'beautiful coastline,' or views 'down the coast,' alongside ocean and harbor vistas. The evidence is broad enough across listings to treat coastline view as a legitimate building feature.

Marina/harbor views are a recurring building-level feature at Ilikai. The remarks include many explicit mentions of "Ala Wai Harbor," "yacht harbor," "boat harbor," and "marina views," with multiple listings describing harbor-facing units. This appears across numerous independent listings, not just one repeated remark.
Sunrise views appear available in at least some Ilikai units, though they are less common than ocean, city, or mountain views. Current remarks explicitly mention "stunning sunrise vistas" and eastern/cool-side exposure, which supports this feature. The evidence is smaller in volume but still credible for a building-level offering available in some units.
Sunset views are strongly supported at the Ilikai. Numerous remarks explicitly reference 'sunset views,' 'stunning sunsets,' 'golden sunsets,' and watching sunsets from the lanai, with several listings tying them to ocean, marina, or harbor vistas. The consistency across many listings suggests this is a real building-level view option rather than isolated marketing language.
No analysis available
The public remarks repeatedly confirm fireworks views from units and lanais. I looked specifically for in-building viewing language rather than nearby access, and found numerous direct references.

There is strong evidence that the Ilikai has an on-site resident manager. Current remarks explicitly mention a "resident manager's office on site" and state that a resident manager provides assistance, which aligns with the MLS data showing RESMAN in 6 of 20 listings. The wording appears across multiple remarks and is consistent with a building-level staffed management presence.
