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.

I searched the remarks for explicit owner-occupancy percentages or terms (e.g., 'owner occupied', '% owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied') and found no information. Without explicit statements, the owner-occupancy percentage is unknown.
Remarks explicitly state the building has 2 elevators. Multiple listings repeat this detail, so high confidence that the building has 2 elevators.
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.

At least 7 of the listings explicitly mention cable/basic cable is included in the HOA/maintenance fee (quotes include "cable TV" and "basic cable"). Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks and matches prior high-confidence MLS checkbox data, indicating strong building-level inclusion of cable in the fees.
Multiple listings (roughly 5–7) state "maintenance fees cover electricity" or similar, implying the association pays building/common electricity. However, remarks rarely use the explicit term "common area electricity," so the evidence is somewhat implied rather than stated verbatim across all agents.
No analysis available
At least 6–8 listings contain explicit phrasing such as "maintenance fees include electricity" or "HOA fee covers electricity," corroborating historical MLS data that showed electricity in the association fee. This provides strong evidence that electricity is included in the fees.
No analysis available
Several listings say things like “Maintenance Fee include… hot water” and “Your maintenance fees cover electricity and hot water,” indicating building-supplied hot water is part of the HOA. The MLS consistently codes HOTWAT and never WTRHTR, supporting that hot water (not individual water heaters) is included in the fees.
One remark claims “Maintenance Fee include… internet and cable tv,” but all other detailed utility descriptions omit internet while highlighting other inclusions like electricity, water, sewer, hot water, and cable TV. With 7/8 MLS entries not checking INTSER and no pattern of confirming remarks, the balance of evidence indicates internet service is generally not included in the HOA fees.
No analysis available
Approximately 6–8 listings explicitly mention "sewer" or "water and sewer" being covered by maintenance fees. The repeated, explicit mentions across multiple agent remarks and prior MLS data give strong, consistent evidence that sewer is included in the association fees.
At least 7 listings explicitly state "water" is included in the maintenance/HOA fees (phrases include "water" and "HOA fee covers water"). The consistency across multiple agent remarks and historical MLS data indicates strong evidence that water is included in the fees.

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.

No public remarks (0 of 9 listings) mention a meeting, conference, community, board, or hospitality room. Although 4/9 current MLS records list MEEROO, historical review flagged Low confidence and remarks consistently omit any meeting room details, indicating agent checkbox errors rather than an actual shared meeting room.
All current listings consistently mention lanais or outdoor space (at least 9 remarks), with phrases such as '151 sq. ft. open lanai,' 'large private lanai,' and 'generously sized 158 sq ft lanai.' Evidence is strong and repeated across multiple agent remarks rather than a single copy-paste, so the building should be recorded as offering patios/decks (lanai) amenities.

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
Public remarks across all listings (0 of 9) fail to mention a trash, garbage, or refuse chute. With only 2/9 MLS checkboxes showing TRACHU and no corroborating remarks, the evidence indicates the trash chute amenity is not present and MLS checkbox entries are likely erroneous.

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.
Building-level pool is supported by historical MLS checkbox data (all listings included POOL) and is explicitly mentioned in several agent remarks (at least 4 of the 9 current listings). Example quotes: "association pool for those relaxing swims," "Dive into the pool on sunny days," and "pool and jacuzzi for relaxing in the common areas." Evidence comes from multiple listings/agents and confirms a shared pool amenity.
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.
Building-level evidence is strong: MLS inclusion data lists washer/dryer for all 9 current listings and 8 out of 9 public remarks explicitly state in-unit laundry (quotes include 'In-unit washer and dryer', 'washer and dryer right in your unit', and 'In Unit Washer & Dryer'). The consistency across multiple agent remarks and the prior high-confidence MLS data indicate that some units in the building have in-unit washers and dryers.
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.
Good evidence that parking is covered: 7–8 listings explicitly state covered/secured/garage or 'in the gated basement', with phrases like 'covered and secured parking stall', 'partially covered parking stall', and '1 covered parking'. Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks and matches MLS flags.
Several listings describe an assigned/covered parking stall that 'comes with the unit' or is 'assigned', which indicates the parking is conveyed with the unit (deeded/owned) in the public remarks. The wording does not explicitly use the word 'deeded', hence medium-high confidence.
No analysis available
Searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'additional parking cost', and similar phrases. Listings consistently describe an included/assigned stall with no separate monthly parking charge referenced.
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.

Looked for terms like 'parking waitlist' or 'join waitlist' across all remarks and found none. Absence of any reference suggests there is no formal waitlist mentioned in the public remarks.
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).

Searched for 'short-term rental', 'vacation rental', 'NUC', 'TVU', '30-day minimum', and similar phrasing. None of the listings discuss STR permissions, so based on public remarks STR allowance is not indicated.
No listing references a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed program. Because short-term rentals are not mentioned, hotel pool participation is not supported by the remarks.
No listing states any mandatory rental-pool participation or requirement. With no STR/hotel pool evidence, mandatory participation is not supported by the public remarks.

Searched for phrases like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold expiring', and renewal language. No listing mentions any lease expiry year or ground lease details.
One of the listings explicitly states the building is VA loan approved, indicating VA financing is accepted.
Multiple remarks state the maintenance/HOA fee includes hazard insurance, indicating the association provides building hazard insurance (walls-in coverage). This explicit mention supports a high-confidence true.
No analysis available
I searched all public remarks for terms indicating a passed fire/life safety evaluation (e.g., 'FLSE passed', 'fire safety certified', 'life safety compliant'). None of the listings mention any FLSE or fire/life safety certification, so there is no evidence the building has passed such an evaluation.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 9 of 9 listings/remarks mention Diamond Head views, with quotes like “spectacular views of Diamond Head,” “Million $$ view of Diamond Head,” and “stunning Diamond Head views from your expansive lanai.” Multiple agents independently describe the same building-level Diamond Head vantage, so the evidence is high-confidence and not likely agent copy/paste error.
Good evidence that the building offers city views: at least 3 of 9 public remarks explicitly mention city or Waikiki city views (examples include “Waikiki City views” and “the city life below you”), and MLS view_descriptions flag CITY in 8 of 9 listings. Multiple listings/agents reference urban vistas, so inclusion is warranted with high confidence.

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
All 9 current listings include the RESMAN amenity checkbox and prior data already showed High confidence for a resident manager. One agent remark explicitly says 'resident manager onsite,' while other remarks are silent (suggesting some copy/paste), but the uniform MLS checkbox across all listings and past confirmations provide strong evidence the building has a resident manager.

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.
