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 for a stated owner-occupancy percentage and phrases such as majority owner occupied or highly owner occupied. The remarks contain references to owners, residents, and vacation rentals but provide no building-wide owner-occupancy figure, so the current value is retained with low confidence.
The remarks explicitly state that the building has four elevators. This directly confirms the current value and is strong, high-confidence evidence.

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 building appears to include common-area electricity in the maintenance structure, but the public remarks do not explicitly spell it out. Historical MLS data is fairly supportive (15/20 listings with OTCOEX), yet most remarks mention only unit electric and submetered A/C, which suggests agents may be copying fee details without elaboration.
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 inclusion is strongly supported across the building. Multiple remarks explicitly say the maintenance fee includes “sewer,” often alongside water, hot water, cable, and internet, and the MLS history is nearly unanimous at 19/20 listings.
Water is included in the building’s maintenance fee. The MLS data is highly consistent at 19/20, and public remarks repeatedly confirm it with phrases like “includes ... water” and “water ... charged with maintenance fee,” making this a strong building-level feature.

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.
Restaurant evidence is very strong across many listings and appears consistent rather than one-off agent copy. Multiple remarks explicitly mention "two on-site restaurants," "three restaurants downstairs," and dining venues at the base of the building or right downstairs. This strongly supports that Ilikai Marina has on-site restaurant/dining facilities.

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.
I searched for dedicated surfboard or board-storage facilities. The listings discuss surfing, surf spots, and beach equipment but do not identify building-provided surfboard storage.
No analysis available
Trash chute appears to be a real building amenity based on the current MLS pattern: 16 of 20 listings include TRACHU. Public remarks do not confirm it directly, so this rests primarily on the strong MLS checkbox signal rather than narrative descriptions.

I searched for explicit saltwater-pool terminology, including salt pool, saline pool, and salt-water pool. The listings either do not discuss a pool or state that the property does not feature one, but they provide no evidence of a saltwater pool.
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 overwhelming that Ilikai Marina has shared/community laundry facilities. Multiple listings mention it directly across different remarks, including "common washer/dryer," "laundry room on the 8th floor," and "Washer and dryers are located on the eighth floor," confirming this is a building amenity rather than an in-unit feature. The consistency across many listings suggests this is real, not just copy-paste checkbox noise.
I searched for references to coin laundry, laundry fees, card-operated machines, quarters, or other payment requirements. The remarks only discuss community laundry locations and provide no evidence that laundry requires payment.
The remarks consistently identify a centralized laundry facility on the 8th floor. No listing states that laundry is available on each floor, so the every-floor feature is not supported.
Parking is clearly offered at Ilikai Marina. Across many current listings, multiple agents mention parking in the garage or available for rent, including phrases like "covered parking is available," "parking available for a fee," and "onsite parking garage." The evidence is consistent across listings and appears to be repeated by multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste claim.
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.
The remarks consistently indicate that parking is rented separately rather than deeded with the unit. Examples include 'Covered parking is available for $150/month' and 'Parking available in adjacent garage for $150/month per car.'
No analysis available
The most consistently reported monthly parking fee is $150. Other remarks mention daily, hourly, or alternative rates, including one $115/month reference, but $150/month is the repeated and best-supported building-level amount.
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 searched for explicit waitlist language and found none. The remarks instead describe parking as available for rent, hourly, daily, or monthly, without indicating a waitlist system.
No analysis available
I searched for explicit card- or fob-based access language. Although the building is described as secure and having 24-hour security, no remarks confirm a card access system.
Security guard service appears to be a real, shared building amenity at Ilikai Marina. Across many listings, agents explicitly mention “24-hour security,” “24/7 security,” “security patrols,” or describe the building as a secure building, which strongly confirms the amenity rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
The remarks directly identify regular security patrol service as a building amenity. This is distinct from general 24-hour security or the existing security guard context and is strongly supported.
No analysis available
Strong, repeated evidence across many current listings confirms Ilikai Marina has central air conditioning. At least a dozen-plus remarks explicitly mention it, including phrases such as "central A/C," "central AC," "central air conditioning," and "maintenance fee includes central AC." This appears consistent across multiple agents and is not just a copy-paste checkbox artifact.

Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. The current MLS data is nearly unanimous at 19 of 20 listings showing CONCRE, while the public remarks are silent on material type but consistent with a single building-level profile. This appears to be reliable MLS data rather than copy-paste variation.
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 but real MLS support exists for a concrete slab foundation, with 4 of 20 listings showing SLAB. No public remarks explicitly mention a slab or solid concrete foundation, so the evidence is weaker than for construction material and may reflect incomplete MLS entry rather than broad agent confirmation. Still, because foundation is a building-level feature buyers may search for, it remains included at moderate confidence.
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.

There is overwhelming public-remarks evidence that STR is allowed. Multiple listings describe the building as legally resort-zoned or vacation-rental approved, often referencing DPP registration and legal short-term vacation rental use.
Although STR is clearly allowed, I found no evidence that the building participates in a hotel rental pool. References to nearby hotels and resorts describe location only and do not establish hotel-pool participation.
The public remarks provide no evidence of a required rental program or mandatory hotel-pool participation. Multiple listings emphasize owner flexibility and personal use, which supports a non-mandatory status.

I searched for leasehold terminology and specific expiry or renewal dates, including phrases such as 'lease expires,' 'land lease to,' and 'ground lease ends.' No specific lease-expiration year was found.
I searched the public remarks for explicit VA-related language, including 'VA approved,' 'VA financing,' and 'VA loans accepted.' No such mentions were found, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building is VA approved.
The remarks include maintenance fees and building improvements but do not describe the HOA's insurance coverage. Because the current value is not true and there is no explicit confirmation, this remains false with low confidence.
No analysis available
I searched for terms such as FLSE passed, fire/life safety evaluation passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, and passed fire inspection. The remarks mention planned fire safety enhancements but do not state that an evaluation was passed, so there is no positive evidence of compliance.
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 evidence supports mountain views in this building. Current remarks include multiple explicit mentions such as "beautiful mountain view," "partial mountain views," "Koolau mountains," and "mountain and city views." The pattern appears across several agents/listings, not just a single copied remark, so this is reliable building-level evidence.
No analysis available
Strong evidence supports city views in this building. Current remarks include phrases like "city lights view that truly shines at night," "peaceful city & mountain views," and "dynamic city... views," showing repeated, explicit confirmation across multiple listings. This looks consistent across different agents and units rather than a one-off MLS copy-paste error.
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
There are repeated direct statements such as "enjoy Friday-night fireworks ... right from your living room," "front-row views of the Friday night fireworks," and "watch the Friday night fireworks from your lanai." This clearly establishes fireworks views from units.

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.
