Ilikai Marina
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 the remarks for an explicit owner-occupancy percentage or clues like "majority owner occupied" or similar phrases, but none were found. Because the remarks do not address this metric, the current value is retained without new support.
The remarks directly confirm that the building has four elevators. This matches the current value, so it is strongly supported by the listing text.
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.
Central air conditioning is clearly a building-level feature associated with the maintenance fee for many listings. Remarks mention "central A/C," "central AC is big plus," and fee language covering AC work or submetered AC charges. Evidence is explicit across multiple listings and supports inclusion.
Cable TV appears to be included in the maintenance/HOA structure for many units. Multiple remarks explicitly mention "cable TV/internet" or say the "maintenance fee covers cable and internet," although a few listings note separate charges, suggesting some inconsistency in agent remarks or billing presentation. Overall evidence is strong enough to include the feature.
The current remarks mostly reference electricity for the unit and submetered AC usage, not common-area electricity. I do not see explicit language about hallways, elevators, or building/common power being covered by maintenance fees. Because the remarks do not confirm the MLS flag, this is treated as a likely mistaken inclusion.
No analysis available
About 8–12 listings mention electricity as included or note it's billed/invoiced along with the maintenance fee (examples: 'Maintenance fee includes central AC, electricity, hot water, cable and internet', 'Electricity and A/C are sub-metered and invoice every month with maintenance fee'). The evidence is fairly consistent in public remarks but some agent wording about sub-metering introduces ambiguity, so confidence is moderate-high.
No analysis available
Hot water is very likely included in the maintenance fee. Several listings explicitly state that fees cover "hot water," and the MLS history is highly consistent with HOTWAT appearing in most listings. No strong contrary evidence appears in the remarks.
Internet service appears to be included for at least many units in the building. Remarks mention "cable TV/internet" and several listings say the maintenance fee covers internet, though some agents also describe it as separately charged. This is moderately to strongly supported overall.
No analysis available
Sewer is clearly included in the building fees. The MLS history is almost unanimous, and multiple remarks explicitly list sewer among covered expenses. Confidence is very high.
Water is included in the maintenance fee for the building. The MLS data is highly consistent and the remarks repeatedly confirm it, often alongside sewer and hot water. This is a very strong building-level inclusion.

Strong evidence the Ilikai Marina building offers patios/decks. Dozens of current listing remarks explicitly mention lanais/balconies—phrases include "private lanai", "Juliet lanai", "two lanais", and "covered lanai"—and multiple units note an outdoor lanai off living room and/or bedroom. Historical MLS amenity checks (3/20) plus the pervasive remarks across many agents support a high-confidence conclusion that the building provides patio/deck amenities.

Only 2 of 20 current MLS listings include the RECARE amenity flag, and none of the public remarks mention a recreation area (no phrases like 'recreation area', 'rec area', 'amenity deck', or 'recreation space' are present). Given the very sparse MLS flagging and absence in remarks, the evidence for a building recreation area is weak and may be due to agents copying checklist items.
No public remarks across the provided sample mention a recreation/rec/game/multi-purpose room, while only 1 of 20 current MLS listings has the RECROO amenity checked. Evidence indicates the RECROO checkbox is likely erroneous or copy/paste; no corroborating agent remarks were found.
Strong, consistent evidence across many listings that the Ilikai Marina has on-site restaurants: multiple remarks state "two on-site restaurants", "three restaurants on site", and specifically name Chart House at the building base. Both the historical high-confidence assessment and numerous current remarks from different agents confirm the feature.

Only 1 of 20 current listings checks a building storage/extra storage amenity (STORAG/ADDLVSTORAG). None of the public remarks mention storage lockers, and most remarks only reference closets/cabinets or in-unit storage. Evidence is sparse and appears to be a single-agent checkbox rather than consistent confirmation across listings.
The remarks mention surf spots and beach gear, but not any dedicated surfboard storage facility. I searched for surfboard storage and related terms and found no public-remarks evidence.
No analysis available
The current MLS amenity flag for TRACHU is present on 15 of 20 listings, which is strong evidence that the building offers a trash chute system. None of the public remarks explicitly mention a trash, garbage, or refuse chute, so the support comes from consistent MLS data rather than agent descriptions. Because this is a shared building amenity and the checkbox is present on a majority of listings, it should be included with moderate-high confidence.

The building context notes a pool exists, but the public remarks do not describe it as salt water. I specifically searched for saltwater-related pool language and found no evidence to confirm this feature.
One of 20 current MLS listings includes 'WASHER/DRYER' in the inclusions, suggesting at least some units may have in-unit laundry. None of the public remarks explicitly advertise 'washer/dryer in unit' or 'in-unit laundry'; most remarks reference shared facilities. Evidence is therefore limited to a single listing inclusion and appears implied rather than broadly confirmed across agents.
Evidence is very strong that Ilikai Marina has shared/community laundry. Multiple current listing remarks explicitly mention "common washer/dryer," a "laundry room on the 8th floor," and "community laundry facilities," which aligns with the MLS COMLAU amenity checkbox across all current listings. The consistency across many remarks suggests this is a real building feature, not just copy-paste checkbox noise.
The remarks confirm community laundry exists, but they do not state that it is paid or coin-operated. I searched for references to coin laundry, quarters, card laundry, paid laundry, and laundry fees, and found nothing explicit.
The listings consistently point to a single community laundry location on the 8th floor rather than laundry on every floor. I searched for phrases like laundry on each floor, every floor, and floor-by-floor laundry, but found no such evidence.
Parking is clearly offered at the building. Across many current listings, agents repeatedly mention parking availability in the garage or nearby, with details such as 'parking available in the building garage for a fee,' 'covered parking is available for $150/month,' and 'ample parking at reasonable rates.' This is consistent across multiple remarks and appears to be a true building-level amenity rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Out of ~20 listings, only 1 listing's checkbox indicates 'ASSIGN' but ZERO public remarks explicitly say 'assigned', 'deeded' or 'designated stall'. Multiple listings consistently describe 'parking available for rent', '$150/month', 'covered parking', or 'parking services'—language that implies monthly paid parking rather than reserved/deeded stalls. The evidence across many agent remarks points to rental parking (not assigned), though the single MLS ASSIGN flag creates some uncertainty.
Multiple listings explicitly reference covered/garage parking (e.g., "parking is available in the building garage for a fee", "covered parking is available for $150 per month", "monthly, daily and hourly paid parking in the adjacent covered garage"). Several agents independently note garage/covered options, supporting that covered parking is offered in the building.
I searched for deeded, owned, or included parking language and found the opposite. The listings consistently describe parking as rental parking, which indicates it is not deeded with the unit.
No analysis available
The public remarks repeatedly give a monthly parking rate, most commonly $150. This is an explicit fee mentioned across several listings, so it is the best-supported value.
No listings or public remarks mention dedicated guest/visitor parking. While multiple ads confirm paid resident/garage parking and public parking options, there are zero remarks stating 'guest parking' or 'visitor parking'. Given the absence in remarks and isolated MLS checkbox presence (1/20), guest parking is considered not present.
Evidence for secured parking comes from remarks such as “parking is available in the building’s secure garage for an additional fee,” which indicates controlled/secured access to the garage rather than open, unsecured parking. Additional references to 24-hour security and security patrols, plus one MLS entry with SECENT, point to a pattern of secured parking being part of the building’s offering. While not all agents check the SECENT box, the explicit ‘secure garage’ language provides strong support for this feature.

I looked for any explicit parking waitlist language and found none. The remarks focus on parking being available for rent, which does not indicate a waitlist system.
No analysis available
The remarks reference security generally, but not a card/fob access system. I searched for keycard, fob, card reader, and electronic access language and found no explicit mention.
Security guard service appears to be a real building amenity at Ilikai Marina. In the provided remarks, multiple listings explicitly mention "24-hour security" / "24/7 security," and the historical MLS pattern is very strong at 17 of 20 recent records. The evidence is consistent across many listings, so this feature should be retained with very high confidence.
There is clear evidence that the building has security patrol service. The listings explicitly reference security patrols and 24-hour security, which supports this feature well.
No analysis available
Strong evidence that Ilikai Marina has central air conditioning. The current remarks mention it in many listings, including phrases such as "central A/C," "central AC," "central air conditioning," and "maintenance fee includes central AC"; some also describe two-zone AC or separate controls, which is consistent with building-provided HVAC. This aligns with the historical MLS metadata showing ACCEN/CENAC across numerous listings, so the feature should remain included.

Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. Although the public remarks do not explicitly say "concrete," the current MLS material data shows 19/20 listings coded as CONCRE, which is overwhelming consistency across listings and agents. This appears to be stable building data rather than a one-off agent copy-paste issue.
Mixed evidence: 5 of 20 current MLS entries list 'DOUWAL' but none of the public remarks mention double-wall construction. Given the partial MLS support but lack of corroborating remarks or owner verification, the feature is included with moderate confidence.
No analysis available
Limited direct evidence in current listings (only 1 of 20 list 'MASSTU') and no public-remark mentions of masonry or stucco. Because historical confidence was High, the feature is retained but with reduced confidence pending stronger current confirmation or an owner/site verification.
0 of the public remarks mention steel frame construction. CURRENT MLS: 1/20 listings check STEFRA. No historical data confirms steel framing and no agents’ remarks describe steel frame; the lone checkbox appears to be copy/paste/error, so the building is not indicated to have steel-frame construction.
Limited MLS support (2 of 20 listings) and no mentions in public remarks. Historical confidence was Medium, so the slab foundation remains included but only at a moderate confidence level until stronger confirmation (owner/site verification or consistent MLS coding) is available.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Limited and ambiguous evidence for 'above ground' construction: 8 of 20 MLS entries include 'ABOGRO' while public remarks (many listings) do not explicitly mention above-ground construction. This suggests some units/listings are tagged as above-ground but the signal is inconsistent across agents and could be due to checkbox variability; included with moderate confidence.

The building is repeatedly and explicitly described as allowing short-term rentals. The remarks also reference legal vacation rentals and resort zoning, strongly confirming STRs are allowed.
I searched for hotel pool terminology such as hotel rental program, Hilton pool, or similar managed-hotel language and found none. Since STR is allowed, I checked for this specifically, but there is no evidence of a hotel pool program.
I looked for any language requiring owners to join a rental pool or stating participation is mandatory and found none. The remarks instead emphasize flexibility, including owner use and rental use, which is inconsistent with a mandatory pool.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I looked for any leasehold expiry, ground lease end year, renewal, or extension language and found none. The remarks point to fee simple ownership, so there is no lease expiry year to extract.
I searched the public remarks for explicit VA loan approval language and found none. Since this feature is determined only from remarks, there is no evidence to mark the building as VA-approved.
I looked for any wording indicating full building or walls-in insurance coverage and found nothing. Since there is no current positive value to preserve and no supporting remark language, this remains unconfirmed from the public remarks.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for explicit fire/life safety approval language such as FLSE passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, or passed fire inspection and found none. The only related wording refers to future fire safety improvements, which does not confirm a passed evaluation.
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 and consistently supported across the remarks. Numerous listings explicitly describe 'Pacific Ocean views,' 'ocean views,' 'oceanfront,' and 'front-row ocean views,' often paired with marina or harbor views. This looks like broad building-level truth, not a one-off agent copy.
Strong historical evidence combined with current public remarks supports mountain views. At least a dozen listings explicitly state "mountain", "mauka", or "mountain and city views" (examples: "peaceful mountain and city views", "mountain facing studio", "facing mauka with dynamic city, treetop, and partial mountain views"). Mentions are consistent across multiple agents and listings, indicating this is a building-level characteristic rather than isolated copy/paste.
No analysis available
Multiple listings (about 10 of 20) explicitly mention city or city-lights views — phrases include 'city lights view that truly shines at night' and 'sparkling city views' — indicating city-view units exist in the building and the evidence is consistent across different listings.
Moderately strong evidence for coastline views: historical MLS data lists 7 of 20 with COASTL, and current remarks frequently reference coastal landmarks—'Magic Island', 'Ala Moana Beach Park', 'Hilton Hawaiian Village lagoon', 'watch the surf'—indicating views of coastline/shoreline areas. While agents more often say 'ocean' or 'marina', repeated references to these coastal features across listings provide sufficient, consistent evidence to include view_coastline.
Very limited/no explicit evidence for garden/courtyard/landscaped views in the current remarks (only incidental references to 'tropical greenery' of nearby Magic Island, not explicit 'garden view'). Given historical low occurrence and lack of explicit mentions across listings, the building is not characterized as offering garden views.
No analysis available
Marina/harbor views are overwhelmingly confirmed across the listing remarks. Many agents independently use phrases like 'marina views,' 'overlooking Ala Wai Yacht Harbor,' 'boat harbor views,' and 'marina-front,' which strongly supports the feature at the building level. The evidence is broad and consistent rather than isolated copy-paste.
No evidence supports sunrise/eastern exposure in the current remarks. Across the provided listings there are many references to sunsets, ocean, marina, mountain, and city views but zero mentions of "sunrise", "morning sun", or "eastern exposure". Combined with 0/20 MLS SUNRIS checkboxes, confidence is high that the building does not advertise sunrise views.
Sunset views are repeatedly and explicitly described in the public remarks. Listings mention 'sunset vistas,' 'spectacular sunsets,' 'enjoy the sunsets,' and 'front-row sunsets,' often alongside fireworks and western-facing harbor/ocean views. This is strong, recurring evidence from multiple listings and agents.
No analysis available
This feature is strongly supported by repeated direct mentions of fireworks views from inside units and from lanais. The remarks clearly indicate the building offers Friday night fireworks views from residences, not merely proximity to fireworks.

Across the provided remarks, the building is described multiple times with management language, including "a dedicated site manager" and "site manager." While most listings do not mention management at all, the explicit mention in at least one recent remark aligns with the historical RESMAN flag showing up in 12 of 20 MLS records. Overall this supports that Ilikai Marina has an on-site resident/site manager, even if agents do not consistently mention it.
