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.

The listings consistently reach floor 18, including a penthouse unit 1891, and the county and state records also report 18 floors.
The county assessor reports 261 reconciled residential units and the state registration reports 261 total units for this single-building registration; the county dwell_sum of 256 is set aside because it is not the reconciled unit count.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 172. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The remarks directly confirm four elevators, matching the current value of 4. This is strong, specific evidence from the listings.
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 AC is identified in 7/20 current MLS records, with remarks such as “maintenance fee includes central AC” and “Central AC is big plus.” Several newer remarks say AC usage is submetered or separately charged, so the feature is supported but the exact billing treatment appears inconsistent across listings.
Cable is supported by 12 of 20 current MLS listings and repeated remarks explicitly referencing cable in the maintenance fee. Several listings itemize cable separately, while others state it is included, suggesting the charge may be separately disclosed but remains a building-provided association service.
Common-area electricity is supported by 14 of 20 current MLS records through OTCOEX. Public remarks generally discuss separately billed unit electricity, but that is distinct from common-area power and does not undermine the strong MLS evidence.
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 strongly supported across the building: 17 of 20 current listings include HOTWAT and no listings identify individual water heaters. Multiple independent remarks explicitly say hot water is included in the maintenance fee.
Internet is supported by 11 of 20 current MLS records and several explicit remarks. The repeated references to cable/internet being charged separately likely indicate a separately itemized association fee, while other listings directly describe internet as covered.
No analysis available
Sewer is uniformly supported across the building, appearing in all 20 current MLS records. Remarks also explicitly state that maintenance fees include sewer, making this the strongest and most consistent feature in the dataset.
Water is strongly supported by 19 of 20 current MLS listings and repeated explicit remarks. The consistency across many listings indicates a building-level inclusion rather than isolated agent copy-paste.

More than 20 current remarks explicitly mention the feature, using phrases such as "private lanai," "spacious lanai," "two private lanais," "covered lanai," "oversized 84 sq ft lanai," and "balcony." The evidence is repeated across many different units and agents, strongly confirming that Ilikai Marina offers patio/deck-type outdoor spaces, primarily lanais and balconies.

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.
None of the provided public remarks explicitly mention a recreation room, rec room, game room, entertainment room, or multipurpose room. RECROO appears in 2 of 20 current MLS listings, while the prior assessment was High confidence; this is limited current corroboration but not sufficient evidence of a change or removal.
At least 11 of 20 current listings carry the RESTAU amenity, with many remarks from different listings confirming restaurants within or directly at the building. Repeated descriptions such as "three restaurants downstairs," "two restaurants onsite," and "popular restaurants downstairs" provide strong, consistent evidence that the building offers on-site restaurants.
No analysis available
No analysis available
0 of the provided listings explicitly mention storage units, storage lockers, or additional storage space. The only evidence is an isolated checkbox in 2 of 20 MLS records, with no supporting description across multiple agents, so storage_unit is omitted as likely unverified.
The listings establish proximity to surfing and mention recreational equipment within an individual unit. Searches for surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, and bike-and-surfboard storage found no building facility.
No analysis available
TRACHU appears in 13 of 20 current listings, indicating broad agreement in the MLS amenity data. None of the reviewed public remarks explicitly mention a trash chute, garbage chute, or refuse chute, but there is also no contrary evidence and the feature has previously been rated High confidence.

There is no evidence of a saltwater pool. Although the building context indicates a pool, the public remarks explicitly deny that the property features one, and no saltwater-pool terminology appears.
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.
Community laundry is strongly confirmed across the building: 19 of 20 current listings mark COMLAU, and at least 6 remarks explicitly describe shared facilities. Key phrases include "common washer/dryer," "laundry room on the 8th floor," and "community laundry facilities," providing consistent multi-listing confirmation rather than a single copied assertion.
The listings confirm that the building has community laundry facilities. Searches for coin laundry, paid laundry, laundry fees, card-operated machines, quarters, and coin-op terms found no evidence establishing that the laundry is paid.
Community laundry is confirmed, but the remarks place it on the 8th floor rather than on every floor. No listing states that laundry facilities are available floor-by-floor.
Parking is mentioned in well over 20 listings from multiple agents, with repeated references to covered parking, an on-site or building garage, public parking, and monthly/daily rental availability. Key phrases include “covered parking is available for $150/month,” “parking available for rent,” “onsite parking,” and “parking is available in the building garage for a fee.” The current NONE checkbox data appears inconsistent with strong, longstanding remark evidence and likely reflects copied or incomplete MLS entries.
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.
Parking is consistently described as separately rented, paid, hourly, daily, or monthly rather than owned with the unit. Multiple listings explicitly say parking is not included or is available through parking services, strongly indicating it is not deeded.
No analysis available
The most consistently reported monthly parking charge is $150. A $115 monthly rate also appears, so the exact fee may vary, but $150 is the predominant publicly reported amount.
Zero listings explicitly mention dedicated guest or visitor parking. One remark says there are 'many easy parking options available for guests and residents,' but this refers to general paid/public parking rather than building-provided guest parking; the 2/20 GUEST checkboxes appear likely to be unsupported MLS entries.
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.

The remarks repeatedly mention parking being available for hourly, daily, nightly, or monthly rental, including specific rates. They do not mention a parking waitlist, joining a waitlist, or a waiting list for parking.
No analysis available
The building's security services are described, but no card- or fob-based access system is identified. Searches for key card, fob access, card reader, keycard entry, and electronic access found no relevant mentions.
At least 7 current listings explicitly mention building security, including repeated phrases such as "24-hour security," "24/7 security building," and "regular security patrols." The references appear across multiple listing descriptions and agents, strongly confirming that Ilikai Marina offers building security service rather than reflecting only an isolated copied checkbox.
Security patrol service is directly confirmed in the remarks. The repeated references to regular patrols and 24-hour security provide strong support.
No analysis available
Central air conditioning is strongly confirmed across the building. Numerous listings explicitly mention “Central AC,” “central air conditioning,” or “central AC,” while others describe AC assessments, submetered AC charges, or maintenance fees that include central AC. The evidence appears across many separate remarks and is consistent with the historical high-confidence MLS data, not merely a single copied remark.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Concrete construction is supported by 19 of 20 current listings through the CONCRE construction-materials designation. No public remarks explicitly use phrases such as "concrete building" or "reinforced concrete," but the consistency across nearly all listings provides strong building-level evidence rather than a single-agent entry.
Six of 20 current listings include the DOUWAL construction code, but none of the supplied remarks explicitly mention double-wall construction. The partial MLS support may reflect copied or inconsistently verified checkbox data, so confidence is low despite including the feature provisionally.
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.
None of the provided public remarks mention "steel frame" or "steel frame construction." STEFRA appears in 2 of 20 current listings, while historical data was previously rated high confidence; the limited current frequency and lack of textual confirmation make this evidence weaker than for concrete, but not sufficient to overturn the prior determination.
A concrete slab foundation is reported in 4 of 20 current MLS listings, indicating some building-level support but not a strong consensus. None of the provided public remarks explicitly mention a slab or solid concrete foundation, so this appears to be MLS checkbox evidence rather than independently confirmed remark evidence.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Above-ground construction is identified in 10 of 20 current listings through the ABOGRO construction-materials designation. The public remarks do not explicitly say "above ground construction" or describe above-ground materials, so support is moderate compared with concrete, but the repeated MLS designation across multiple listings supports retaining the feature.
No analysis available
No analysis available
There is overwhelming repeated evidence that short-term rentals are permitted. Remarks cite legal vacation rentals, resort zoning, daily rentals, DPP registration, Airbnb/VRBO operation, and established short-term rental histories.
The remarks provide extensive evidence that short-term rentals are permitted, including references to Airbnb, VRBO, private management companies, and legal vacation rentals. However, they do not mention a hotel rental pool, hotel rental program, or participation in hotel operations; therefore this feature is false.
The listings consistently present rentals as optional and emphasize flexibility to live in, use as a second home, or rent the unit. No remark states that participation in a hotel rental pool is mandatory, and several descriptions imply owners may opt to use the unit themselves.

The remarks do not identify the building as leasehold and do not provide a four-digit lease-expiry year. No renewal or extension date was found.
The remarks were searched for explicit VA-related terms such as “VA approved,” “VA financing,” and “VA loans accepted.” None of those terms or equivalent statements appeared, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building is VA loan approved.
The listings were searched for explicit references to full HOA insurance, fully covered building insurance, comprehensive insurance, and walls-in coverage. No supporting or denying statement was found.
No analysis available
Remarks were searched for terms such as FLSE passed, fire/life safety evaluation passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, and passed fire inspection. No confirming statement was found; the mention of planned fire safety enhancements is not evidence of 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.
No analysis available
Ocean views are strongly established across the building, with 12 of 20 current listings mentioning OCEAN and many remarks providing specific detail. Repeated phrases include "beautiful marina and Pacific Ocean views," "unobstructed 180-degree ocean views," and "ocean views from almost every room and lanai," indicating broad confirmation across multiple listings rather than a single copied description.
Mountain views are confirmed across multiple listings and agents, including "wake up to mountain views," "partial views of the Koolau mountains," and repeated references to "mountain and city views." Although only 5 of 20 current MLS listings include the mountain-view designation, the remarks and historically high confidence strongly support that the building offers units with mountain views.
No analysis available
City views are strongly supported across the current remarks, with at least 9 of 20 listings explicitly mentioning city, city-light, or cityscape views. Key phrases include “beautiful city lights views,” “peaceful city & mountain views,” “stunning mountain and city views,” and “breathtaking mountain and cityscape” views; the evidence appears across multiple distinct listings rather than a single copied remark.
Coastline views are supported by 7 of 20 current listings and explicit remarks describing coastal scenery and the shoreline. One listing directly states "stunning coastline and marina views," while others reference panoramic Pacific Ocean, beach, lagoon, and coastal views, providing strong building-level confirmation.
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 views are strongly confirmed, with 8 of 20 current listings mentioning MARCAN and numerous remarks describing direct views of the Ala Wai Boat Harbor or yacht harbor. Examples include "front-row ocean and marina views," "sweeping ocean, marina and Ala Moana Beach Park views," and "panoramic marina, ocean and sunset views," supported across many listings.
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 confirmed, with 7 of 20 current listings mentioning SUNSET and many detailed remarks describing unobstructed or front-row sunset viewing. Key phrases include "enjoy colorful sunsets," "front-row sunsets," "breathtaking sunset vistas," and "spectacular sunsets," demonstrating consistent evidence across multiple listings.
No analysis available
The building repeatedly has direct Friday night fireworks views from units, lanais, balconies, and living rooms. This is strongly confirmed across numerous listings.

At least 2 listings explicitly mention a building manager, including "a dedicated site manager" and "site manager." These remarks come from separate listing descriptions and align with the historical high-confidence determination, confirming an on-site/resident manager.
