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 current owner_occupancy value of 10.00 was preserved because no remarks explicitly state an owner-occupancy percentage (e.g., '80% owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied'). I searched for explicit phrases indicating owner-occupancy levels across all remarks and found none. Per rules, keep the current numeric value with low confidence and note lack of confirming evidence.
Multiple remarks explicitly reference four elevators (e.g., "express access with four elevators"). This directly confirms the building has 4 elevators and is consistent with the building size (18 floors, 256 units). High confidence.
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.
Numerous listings explicitly mention central air-conditioning and that central AC is covered by the maintenance fee (quotes include 'Maintenance fee includes central AC', 'Low monthly homeowner fees cover central air-conditioning', and multiple notes about AC special assessments). Multiple agents independently confirm central AC coverage, giving strong evidence building-wide.
Mixed but generally positive evidence: ~12 of 20 MLS listings flag CABTV and several remarks state 'maintenance fee covers cable and internet' or 'Maintenance fee includes ... cable', while other listings explicitly list 'Cable TV/internet ($58.46) are charged separately.' The pattern suggests cable is commonly included for many units but not universally; agent copy/paste likely explains some contradictions.
Strong consistent evidence across listings: about a dozen listings (13/20 MLS flags) and multiple public remarks state 'central AC' or 'electricity' are covered by the maintenance fee or HOA. Some listings contradict this by saying electricity/AC are sub‑metered and invoiced, indicating variability, but overall building-level common area electricity/AC coverage is widely reported.
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
Multiple listings (majority of MLS flags and several agent remarks) explicitly state 'hot water' or 'hot water included' in the maintenance fee. No listings show WTRHTR (in‑unit water heater) that would contradict building-supplied hot water, so evidence strongly supports hot water being covered by HOA fees.
Approximately a dozen listings (current MLS flags: 12/20) and multiple remarks state 'internet' or 'internet/cable' included in the maintenance fees ('maintenance fee covers cable and internet', 'internet service included'). A minority of remarks mention separate billing, but overall agent remarks and MLS association flags consistently indicate internet is included for many units.
No analysis available
High confidence: roughly 17 of 20 MLS flags and repeated agent remarks state 'sewer is included' or 'sewer in HOA fees.' The evidence is consistent across multiple listings and agents, indicating sewer service is covered by the building maintenance fee.
Strong, consistent evidence: about 17 of 20 MLS flags and multiple agent remarks explicitly state water is included in HOA fees ('maintenance fee includes ... water'). The pattern is consistent across listings, supporting that water service is generally covered by the building maintenance fee.

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 analysis available
MLS amenity data flags 12 of 20 listings with a restaurant amenity, and numerous public remarks explicitly mention in-building dining: quotes include "3 restaurants on site", "two on-site restaurants", and "Chart House & Red Lobster on the first floor". Evidence is strong across multiple listings and agents, indicating the building offers on-site restaurant 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 the remarks for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', 'surf storage', 'bike and surfboard storage', and related phrases and found none. While some units are described as coming with beach gear (paddle-boards, kayaks), there is no evidence of a building surfboard storage area or facility.
No analysis available
18 of 20 current MLS listings include the TRACHU amenity, suggesting a building trash/garbage chute system. However, public remarks do not explicitly mention a trash or refuse chute, so the presence is implied from MLS amenities (possible agent checkbox copy/paste) rather than being described in remarks—moderate confidence.

At least one remark explicitly denies a pool on the property and no remarks mention a pool or saltwater pool. Because there is no pool, a salt pool is not present.

High-confidence evidence that Ilikai Marina has shared/community laundry: 19 of 20 MLS listings include the COMLAU amenity and numerous current remarks explicitly state a laundry room or washers/dryers on the 8th floor (quotes: "common washer/dryer and located on 8th floor", "laundry room on the 8th floor"). Multiple agents independently mention the same facility, supporting that this is a real building amenity rather than isolated copy/paste.
Multiple listings reference a community laundry room (several quotes note washer/dryers on the 8th floor and 'community laundry facilities'), but none of the public remarks indicate that the machines require coins, cards, or any payment. I searched for phrases like 'coin laundry', 'coin-op', 'quarters', 'paid laundry', and 'card operated' and found no mentions.
Multiple listings explicitly state laundry is located on the 8th floor (e.g., "Washer and dryers are located on the eighth floor"). I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor' or 'laundry on every floor' and found none, so 'every floor' is not supported by the remarks.
Multiple current public remarks explicitly state on-site paid/covered parking or parking services (examples: "parking is available in the building garage", "covered parking is available for $150/month", "parking is available hourly, daily, or monthly"). These comments appear across listings from different agents and are consistent with prior high-confidence data indicating building parking availability, so the building should be listed as offering parking.
No analysis available
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 terms indicating deeded parking (e.g., 'deeded parking', 'owned parking', 'parking included in deed') and found none. Multiple listings explicitly describe parking as rentable/paid (monthly, daily, hourly) through building parking services, which strongly indicates parking is not deeded to units.
No analysis available
I extracted the commonly quoted monthly parking rate from the remarks. Several listings consistently cite $150/month for garage/covered parking; other mentions include $115/month and nightly/daily rates, but $150/month is the most frequently noted figure.
No analysis available
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 scanned all public remarks for any reference to a parking waitlist or waiting-list system and found no such language. Listings describe paid/rental parking availability but do not mention a waitlist or how parking allocation is managed.
No analysis available
Listings consistently describe active security (24-hour security, security patrols, site manager) and a 'secure garage', but none explicitly state 'key card access', 'fob', 'card reader', or similar. I searched for 'card access', 'fob', 'keycard', 'card reader', and 'electronic access' and found no references in the remarks.
MLS checkbox SECGUA appears in 15 of 20 current listings and historical data was High. Numerous public remarks explicitly reference building security—phrases include "24-hour security", "24/7 security", "security patrols", and "on-site security"—across multiple agent listings, indicating strong, consistent evidence that the building provides security guard/service.
Multiple listings explicitly reference 24-hour security and security patrols (e.g., '24-hour security', 'security patrol'), providing strong evidence that a security patrol/service is present.
No analysis available
High confidence that Ilikai Marina has building central air: 20/20 historical listings included ACCEN and 14/20 had ACCEN/CENAC checked in unit features. At least ~18 of the current public remarks explicitly reference central AC or related items (e.g., "central AC," "maintenance fee includes central AC," "AC special assessment paid off," "sub-metered A/C"), indicating consistent confirmation across multiple agents rather than isolated copy-paste errors.

Strong building-level evidence: 19 of 20 current MLS listings mark construction_materials=CONCRE and historical confidence was High. Public remarks across listings do not explicitly discuss construction materials or indicate a change, so the concrete construction designation is well supported across multiple agent listings.
Mixed evidence: 5 of 20 current MLS listings include DOUWAL and historical records indicated this feature with High confidence, but zero public remarks reference 'double wall' or similar phrasing. The MLS checkbox presence suggests the building may have double-wall construction, but lack of remarks and inconsistent checking across listings suggests only moderate confidence.
No analysis available
Only 1/20 MLS listings mark MASSTU in construction_materials, while the other 19 do not, and none of the extensive remarks reference masonry or stucco construction. Given the overwhelming MLS pattern and lack of textual support, the lone MASSTU entry is likely an agent checkbox error rather than a true building-level attribute.
No analysis available
Four of 20 current MLS listings (4/20) have the SLAB checkbox checked; no public remarks explicitly reference a slab foundation. Given the building is a multi-story concrete marina-front tower (which commonly uses slab/flat concrete foundations) and several MLS entries include SLAB, there is moderate implied evidence the building sits on a concrete slab foundation.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Limited and ambiguous evidence: 7 of 20 current MLS listings list ABOGRO, but public remarks focus on unit location (e.g., 'perched above the marina', 'high-floor') rather than construction type; there are no explicit remarks describing the building as 'above ground construction' or 'above ground materials.' Given mixed checkbox usage and lack of explicit remarks, the feature is not well supported by the listings.

The public remarks repeatedly and explicitly state that short-term/vacation rentals are permitted (resort zoning, DPP registration references, and phrases like 'LEGAL VACATION RENTAL'). This provides high confidence that STRs are allowed.
I searched for terms like 'hotel rental pool', 'managed by hotel', or specific hotel pool programs and found none. Listings describe legal STRs, DPP registration, and private management but do not indicate participation in a hotel rental pool.
I searched for language indicating mandatory hotel-rental-pool participation and found none. Several listings explicitly emphasize optional/flexible rental arrangements or private management, so there is no evidence of a mandatory rental pool requirement.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I looked for explicit ground/land lease expiry years (phrases like 'lease expires 2050' or 'land lease to 2065') and found none. Multiple remarks explicitly describe the property as fee simple, indicating no leasehold; therefore no lease expiry year applies.
I reviewed all public remarks for explicit language indicating VA loan approval (e.g., 'VA approved', 'VA financing', 'VA loans accepted') and found no references. Because there is no mention in any listing remarks, VA approval cannot be confirmed.
I searched the remarks for explicit insurance coverage language (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'comprehensive building insurance'). The listings do not state that the HOA provides full/walls-in insurance. With no explicit mention, the feature is set to false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
I searched all public remarks for explicit FLSE/fire & life-safety language (e.g., 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'fire safety certified', 'passed fire inspection'). There are no statements about passing a fire/life safety evaluation or similar certification. In the absence of any remark, the feature is set to false with medium confidence per rules.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Strong evidence across multiple current listing remarks indicates the building offers ocean views. Numerous remarks explicitly state phrases like "ocean and sunset views from the lanai", "oceanfront", and "Pacific Ocean," and many listings describe "marina/harbor/ocean" vistas, showing consistent confirmation from multiple agents rather than a single copy/paste instance.
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 public remarks explicitly state city or city lights views (e.g., "city lights view", "city and mountain views", "sparkling city views"). At least a dozen separate listings reference city/city lights or city vistas, and the evidence is consistent across different agents/ads rather than appearing to be a single copy-paste error, so building-level city views are well-supported.
Dozens of listings explicitly mention ocean, marina, lagoon, Magic Island, Ala Moana Beach Park, or even the word "coastline" (e.g., "ocean, marina, and coastline views"). The prevalence and specificity of these remarks across many different listings provide strong, consistent evidence that the building offers coastline views.

Numerous listing remarks (20+ instances) explicitly state marina/harbor views using phrases like 'marina front', 'Ala Wai Boat Harbor', 'yacht harbor', and 'front row to the marina'. Evidence is widespread across agents' remarks and confirms the building has marina-view units.
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.
Multiple current listing remarks explicitly mention sunset or evening-view features, quoting phrases such as "sunset views", "breathtaking sunsets", "Sunsets galore", and frequent references to viewing the "Friday night fireworks" at dusk. The evidence is consistent across many listings and agents, supporting a high confidence that the building offers sunset views.
No analysis available
Numerous independent listings explicitly state Friday night fireworks are visible from units/lanai/living rooms. The repeated direct language across many listings supports a high-confidence true.

Strong historical and current MLS evidence supports an on-site resident manager: historically 14/20 listings listed RESMAN and 12/20 current listings still have the RESMAN amenity checked. Multiple remarks explicitly state phrases like “dedicated site manager,” “site manager and security patrol,” and “24-hour security,” appearing across listings rather than a single agent’s copy/paste, so the building offering an on-site manager is well-supported.
