Kapiolani Gardens
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 data such as percentages, majority owner-occupied wording, or similar descriptors, but none were present in the remarks. Since this is a numeric percentage field and there is no evidence to extract, it remains unknown.
Multiple remarks explicitly confirm the building has 2 elevators, so the current value is strongly supported. I looked for elevator mentions across the listings and found a direct count, which overrides any need to infer from building size.
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.
There is no clear evidence that HOA fees include central AC. One listing mentions a "split AC system," which indicates unit-level cooling rather than a shared/fee-covered central AC service.
Cable inclusion is strongly supported across many listings. Multiple remarks explicitly state the HOA/maintenance fee includes "Cable," "cable TV," or "Basic Cable," matching the current MLS data showing 10/10 inclusions.
Evidence suggests the association covers common-area electricity in at least several remarks, consistent with the current MLS count of 6/10. Some listings describe fees covering electricity in a way that likely includes building/common power, though the wording is less explicit than for electricity itself.
No analysis available
Electricity is very clearly included. Several remarks say "maintenance fee includes electricity" or "HOA fee covers electricity," and the current MLS data shows 10/10 listings with ELECTR in association_fee_includes.
No analysis available
Hot water inclusion is well supported by both the remarks and MLS data. Listings explicitly say the maintenance fee includes "hot water" and "water, sewer, hot water," with 8/10 current inclusions.
Internet inclusion appears to exist but is not commonly mentioned. One listing explicitly says the maintenance fee includes "internet and cable tv," while most other remarks omit internet, suggesting either limited consistency or copy-paste variation.
No analysis available
Sewer is strongly confirmed across multiple listings. Remarks commonly state the HOA covers "water and sewer" or "electricity, water, sewer," and the MLS shows 9/10 listings with SEWER included.
Water inclusion is one of the clearest features for this building. Many remarks explicitly list "water" in the maintenance fee coverage, matching the current MLS data showing 10/10 listings with WATER included.

None of the public remarks (0 of 9 listings) reference a car wash, auto wash, or vehicle wash station. Although 7/9 MLS entries currently show CRWSH, the absence of any descriptive mention across multiple agent remarks and prior Low confidence indicates the car wash amenity is likely incorrect in MLS checkboxes.

Five of ten current MLS listings include MEEROO in amenities, which suggests the building may offer a meeting or community room. However, none of the public remarks explicitly mention a meeting room, conference room, board room, hospitality room, or community room, so there is no direct narrative confirmation. This looks more like MLS checkbox data than agent-verified remark evidence.
The building consistently appears to offer patio/deck-style amenities: at least 9 current remarks mention a lanai, including phrases like "extra-large lanai," "151 sq. ft. open lanai," "large private lanai," and "158 sq. ft. lanai." This is strong, repeated evidence across multiple listings and agents, not a one-off mention or likely copy-paste error.

At least 3–4 of the provided listing remarks explicitly mention building storage/lockers: phrases include 'shared storage unit', 'shared storage space', and 'Extra storage near elevator on mountain side shared with 1 other unit.' MLS amenities also show STORAG/ADDLVSTORAG in 4 of 9 listings. The evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks (not a single outlier), so the building should be marked as offering storage/lockers.
The remarks describe amenities such as pool, parking, pet-friendliness, storage shared between units, and in-unit washer/dryer, but do not reference any surfboard-specific storage. I searched for phrases like 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', 'surf storage', and 'bike and surfboard storage' and found no matches, so it is likely this feature is not offered.
No analysis available
Three of ten current MLS listings include TRACHU in amenities, indicating the building may have a trash chute system. None of the public remarks mention a trash, garbage, or refuse chute, so there is no explicit confirmation from agents. The evidence is suggestive but not strong enough to treat as high confidence.

Out of 8 listings, at least 1 clearly states 'pool and jacuzzi for relaxing in the common areas,' directly confirming a common-area whirlpool/jacuzzi. This aligns with 5/8 MLS records checking the whirlpool amenity, suggesting multiple agents independently recognize it. The combined checkbox data and explicit remark provide strong evidence the building has a shared whirlpool/jacuzzi.
Pool is strongly supported by both historical MLS amenities data and current agent remarks. At least 3 listings explicitly mention a pool, including phrases like 'association pool' and 'pool and jacuzzi,' which suggests this is a shared building amenity rather than a one-off copy/paste error. The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and aligns with the historical checkbox data.
No analysis available
No listing remarks describe the building’s pool as salt water, saltwater, saline, or a salt pool. All references are generic to a regular pool or pool and jacuzzi, so there is no evidence to classify it as a saltwater pool. Marking as not saltwater by default due to lack of any specific mentions.
Evidence is extremely strong and consistent across the building: 9 of 10 public remarks explicitly say "in-unit washer and dryer," "washer and dryer right in your unit," or "washer/dryer in unit." This aligns with the current MLS inclusion data showing washer/dryer in all current listings, suggesting the feature is not a copy-paste error but a real building-level offering available in units.
No analysis available
The listings only reference in-unit washers and dryers and never describe any coin-op or paid laundry facilities. I specifically looked for terms like 'coin laundry', 'coin-op', 'card-operated laundry', and 'laundry fee' but did not find any. This lack of evidence suggests there is no paid community laundry in the building.
The remarks repeatedly highlight the convenience of in-unit washers and dryers, but do not mention any shared or community laundry rooms on each floor. I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'community laundry', and 'shared laundry' and found none. Based on this absence, it's likely there is no community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Strong evidence across listings: 8–9 listings reference assigned/dedicated parking (phrases include 'One parking stall', 'dedicated parking', '1 assigned covered good size parking space', 'comes with the unit'). Multiple agents independently mention assigned/reserved stalls, supporting high confidence that the building offers assigned parking.
Strong evidence across many listings that Kapiolani Gardens has covered parking. At least 8 of the remarks explicitly mention covered, garage, or partially covered parking, and the language is consistent across multiple agents rather than a single copy-paste source. This aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS pattern showing covered/garage parking features.
Several listings describe the parking as assigned, dedicated, or coming with the unit. While not explicitly using the word deeded, the repeated language strongly suggests owned/included parking rather than a separate rental stall.
No analysis available
I looked for phrases like monthly parking fee, parking rental, additional parking cost, or separate stall charge. The remarks only say the stall is assigned, dedicated, or included, with no explicit fee stated.
Implied by MLS structured data: 7 of 9 listings have the GUEST parking flag, but public remarks do not explicitly mention 'guest' or 'visitor' parking. Inclusion is based on MLS fields rather than agent remarks, so confidence is moderate and buyers should verify availability.
There is strong evidence that parking has secured entry. Several listings mention gated or secured access directly, and the wording appears in more than one listing rather than just MLS checkbox data. Combined with the current MLS secured-entry indicators, this supports a high-confidence true value.

No analysis available
I searched for parking waitlist language such as a waitlist to obtain a stall or join-waitlist wording. No listing references any parking waitlist system, so there is no evidence of one.
No analysis available
No listing remarks specifically mention card or fob access, electronic readers, or keycard-controlled entry doors or gates. Phrases like 'secured covered parking' and 'very secured building' are too general to conclude a card/fob system is present, so this feature is marked as not present based on current information.
No analysis available
All reviewed remarks focus on amenities, parking, views, and general building security but do not reference any kind of security patrol or roving guards. In the absence of explicit mentions, this feature is treated as not present.

Three of nine current MLS listings (ACWIUN checked) indicate window air-conditioning units in some apartments, but none of the public remarks explicitly state 'window AC', 'window unit', or 'wall AC'. Several listings explicitly mention 'split AC' or just 'AC', suggesting some units use split systems; overall the MLS checkbox evidence points to some units having window AC but the remark-level support is weak and may reflect agent copy/paste.
All 9 current MLS listings have 'CONCRE' in the construction_materials field and prior historical data (8/8) also indicated concrete construction. Public remarks do not explicitly state construction material, but the consistent, building-wide checkbox across multiple listings/agents strongly supports that the building is concrete-constructed (unlikely to be widespread copy-paste error).

I looked for short-term rental terms such as STR allowed, vacation rental, NUC, TVU, or minimum-stay rules. None of the public remarks discuss STR permission, so there is no evidence that short-term rentals are allowed.
I searched for hotel pool references such as hotel rental pool, Hilton/Trump/Ritz pool, or managed-by-hotel language. No such program appears in the remarks, so hotel pool participation is not supported.
I looked for language indicating a required rental pool, mandatory participation, or inability to opt out. The remarks do not mention any such requirement, so mandatory pool participation is not supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched for leasehold language such as lease expiry, ground lease end dates, renewal terms, or a specific expiration year. No remarks mention any lease tenure or lease expiration information, so the year remains unknown.
A listing directly says the building is VA loan approved, which strongly supports VA financing eligibility. I found no conflicting remarks suggesting otherwise.
The listings explicitly say the HOA/maintenance fee includes hazard insurance, which is strong evidence that the building is covered by association insurance. I did not find wording about walls-in coverage directly, but the hazard insurance mention supports the fully insured interpretation.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for fire/life safety evaluation language such as FLSE passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, or passed fire inspection, but found nothing. With no explicit evidence in the public remarks, this remains unconfirmed and is treated as not established from the listing text.

Strong, consistent evidence across the current remarks: at least 8 listings explicitly mention Diamond Head views, with phrases like 'breathtaking Diamond Head views,' 'spectacular views of Diamond Head,' and 'Million $$ view of Diamond Head.' This aligns with prior high-confidence data showing 10/10 listings with DIAHEA in the view descriptions, so the feature should remain true.
Current remarks provide clear support for city views, with at least 3 listings mentioning city/urban views directly, such as 'Waikiki City views,' 'city attraction,' and 'the city life below you.' This matches the prior strong MLS signal that 9/10 listings include CITY in the view descriptions, so the feature should remain true.

I looked for phrases like "fireworks view," "watch fireworks from lanai," or similar language indicating fireworks can be seen from the units. None of the listings mention fireworks views, so it is likely the building is not marketed as having a fireworks view. In the absence of any reference, this feature is set to false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
Strong evidence supports a resident manager on-site at Kapiolani Gardens. Current MLS data shows 10/10 listings marked RESMAN, and one listing explicitly says "resident manager onsite," which aligns with the prior high-confidence assessment. The rest of the remarks do not repeat it, but there is no evidence of a change or correction.

Confidence levels are based on MLS checkbox data and AI analysis of listing remarks. High = strong evidence, Medium = some evidence, Low = limited or conflicting evidence. Buyers should always verify critical details independently.
