Kapiolani Manor
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.

Building Overview
Kapiolani Manor in Downtown-Chinatown — 1970 concrete high-rise with pool and ocean/Diamond Head views, resident manager and security.
About Kapiolani Manor
Kapiolani Manor is a 27-floor concrete high-rise located in the Downtown-Chinatown neighborhood. According to available records it was built in 1970 and features three elevators. The building offers views that include ocean, mountain, Diamond Head, and sunset aspects.
Based on MLS data, onsite amenities include a pool, a resident manager, and a security guard. Units are served by window air conditioning and the building lists covered, assigned parking as available. Pets and short-term rentals are not allowed per the provided information.
Parking is described as available, covered, and assigned. The management company is listed as unknown in the MLS data. Buyers should verify all building details, rules, fees, and current management directly, as this summary is based solely on MLS-derived information.

No analysis available
County records and the state registration both report 27 floors. Listings reach only floor 26 and have no penthouse listings, so they do not establish a lower top residential floor.
The state registration reports 416 units for this single-building registration, supporting the stored value. County figures are lower at 413 reconciled units (414 dwellings), so they create some conflict but are set aside in favor of the registration total.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 129. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The remarks explicitly state that Kapiolani Manor has three elevators in service. This matches the current building context value of 3, with no contradictory statements found.

At least 15 current remarks mention cable TV inclusion, using phrases such as "cable TV," "Cable Tv ... included," "basic cable TV," and "maintenance fee covers ... cable." The repeated confirmation across many listings and agents strongly supports this as a building-level feature rather than an isolated or copied checkbox.
At least 5 listings identify other common expenses/common expenses as included, including remarks stating "other common expenses" and "common expenses." This aligns with the current OTCOEX coding and supports inclusion, although the wording is less frequent than for utilities.
No analysis available
Electricity inclusion is strongly confirmed across many listings and multiple apparent listing sources. More than a dozen remarks explicitly mention electricity as included in the maintenance fee, often alongside water and sewer, and the current MLS data supports the same conclusion.
No analysis available
Several remarks explicitly say the maintenance fee includes "hot water" or that HOA covers hot water, including "HOA covers: ... Hot Water" and "maintenance fee includes ... hot water." WTRHTR is also present in many listings, suggesting some units have individual heaters or inconsistent MLS coding, but the repeated HOTWAT coding and explicit remarks support the building feature.
Internet inclusion is repeatedly confirmed in current remarks, including explicit statements that fees cover "internet," "Wi-Fi," or "basic Wi-Fi." The evidence appears across multiple listings and is consistent with the 17/20 current MLS indicator count.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is exceptionally well supported, with explicit references in many independent-looking remarks and a 19/20 current MLS count. The repeated combinations of water and sewer, sometimes with electricity and internet, strongly confirm this building-level feature.
Water inclusion is strongly and consistently documented across the listings. At least many remarks explicitly identify water as covered by maintenance fees, and the 19/20 MLS count provides corroborating evidence across the building.
Multiple listings describe the rooftop pool and deck in detail, mentioning features like cabanas, picnic/tables, and recreation areas but never reference a BBQ, barbecue, or grill. Current MLS data shows BBQ checked in only 1 of 20 listings, indicating that BBQ is likely not a true building amenity. Given the extensive marketing of the rooftop and absence of any grill-related language, the evidence points to no shared BBQ facilities in this building.

Patio/deck amenities are strongly supported across the listings: at least 11 of 20 current MLS records contain PATDEC/COVPAT, while numerous independent remarks describe unit lanais and the building's shared rooftop deck or sundeck. Repeated phrases include 'private open lanai,' 'covered lanai,' 'rooftop pool and deck,' and 'pool and patio/deck,' indicating this is a genuine, consistently documented building feature rather than isolated checkbox copy-paste.

At least 10 listings mention the feature using phrases such as "recreation deck," "recreation area," "rec area," "recreational area complete with a swimming pool and picnic tables," and "amenity deck." These remarks consistently describe a shared rooftop amenity, so the feature is strongly supported despite limited MLS checkbox usage.
There is limited but repeatable evidence for a recreation-room-style amenity: 2 of 20 current MLS listings check RECROO, and several public remarks mention a "recreation deck," "recreational area," or "rec area." The wording appears more like a shared amenity space than a clearly defined indoor recreation room, so this may reflect copy-paste amenity coding rather than consistent agent verification.

Storage is confirmed across numerous listings from multiple apparent agents, far beyond a single copied remark. Dozens of remarks explicitly identify unit-associated lockers or storage areas, including “dedicated storage locker,” “separate storage unit,” “third-floor storage space,” and “storage locker near the parking stall,” while the MLS data is also consistently marked.
The listings mention storage lockers and proximity to beaches or surfing, but do not identify a facility for storing surfboards. General storage references are insufficient to confirm this feature.
No analysis available
Trash chute is strongly supported across the building. At least three listings explicitly mention the feature, including "trash chute," "trash shoot," and a listing describing the building as having "video security, trash chute"; the 19/20 current MLS amenity selections provide additional corroboration, despite many remarks omitting routine building amenities.

The pool is explicitly mentioned in well over 30 current listing remarks from multiple agents, commonly as a "rooftop pool," "swimming pool on the 27th floor," or a pool with cabanas, sundeck, and panoramic views. This strongly corroborates the historically high-confidence feature and indicates a shared building amenity rather than a unit-specific or copy-paste-only claim.
No analysis available
A swimming pool is clearly present, but its water type is not identified. No salt-water terminology was found in the remarks, so this feature is treated as false with low confidence.
No analysis available
Community laundry is strongly confirmed across the building: well over 20 listings mention phrases such as “community laundry on each floor,” “laundry facilities on every floor,” “2 washers and 2 dryers on each floor,” and “coin-operated laundry located on every floor.” The consistency across numerous listings and agents, including detailed descriptions of the equipment and floor locations, indicates a genuine shared building amenity rather than an isolated or copied checkbox.
The coin-operated description establishes that payment is required for the community laundry. No conflicting remarks indicate that the laundry is free.
The remarks consistently confirm floor-by-floor community laundry facilities. Several listings also specify two washers and two dryers on each floor.
Parking is overwhelmingly and repeatedly confirmed across the listings, with well over 20 remarks mentioning phrases such as “1 assigned parking stall,” “covered parking,” “secured parking garage,” and “open assigned parking.” The evidence comes from numerous listings and agents and is consistent with the historical high-confidence conclusion that the building offers parking.
Assigned parking is strongly confirmed across the building: 16 of 20 current listings contain the ASSIGN parking code, with many independent remarks describing an "assigned parking stall" or "reserved covered parking stall." The repeated detailed references across listings indicate a genuine building feature rather than isolated checkbox copy-paste.
Covered parking is overwhelmingly supported: 16 of 20 current listings include covered or garage parking codes, and many remarks explicitly describe a "covered parking stall" or parking in a "secured garage." Evidence is consistent across many listings and clearly supports this as a building-level offering.
Assigned and covered parking is consistently mentioned, including statements that a stall is included with the unit. However, there is no explicit public-remark evidence that parking is deeded, so deeded status cannot be confirmed.
No analysis available
The remarks explicitly indicate that parking is included in the maintenance fee rather than charged separately. No monthly parking charge or additional parking fee is mentioned; the applicable separate parking fee is therefore $0.
No analysis available
Secured parking and entry are strongly corroborated, with 11 of 20 current listings carrying the SECENT code and many remarks providing specific descriptions such as "secured/gated parking structure," "secured garage," "key fob," and "video security." The repeated references across multiple listings confirm this is a genuine building feature.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings consistently reference assigned, covered, or secured parking associated with individual units. Searches for parking waitlist and waiting-list language found no evidence of a building-wide parking waitlist.
No analysis available
The listings provide direct evidence of card/fob-based access controls. Multiple descriptions support key-fob or keyed-elevator security.
At least 1 listing explicitly mentions an "on-site resident manager and security," while multiple other listings reference "video security," "secured entry," "secured/gated building," and secured elevators or parking. The evidence is consistent across many agents, although most remarks describe general building security rather than specifically using the phrase security guard.
The remarks mention secured entry, secured parking and elevators, video surveillance, security, a resident manager, and on-site staff. These do not establish a patrol service, and no specific patrol wording was found.

MLS shows ACWIUN in a small subset of units and remarks reference an in-unit air conditioner with a separate A/C fee and medical-note exception, implying window units are present in at least some condos.
All 20 of 20 current listings report CONCRE in the construction materials field, providing strong, consistent evidence that the building is constructed with concrete. Public remarks generally focus on unit updates and amenities and do not explicitly mention concrete construction, but there are no remarks contradicting the MLS data.
Only 3 of 20 current listings identify DOUWAL, and none of the provided public remarks mention “double wall,” “double-wall construction,” or “two walls.” The limited current support appears more consistent with unverified MLS checkbox data than with repeated agent-confirmed descriptions.
There is no meaningful public-remarks support for hollow tile construction. Only 1 of 20 listings checked HOLTIL, while the remainder and the remarks point to a concrete high-rise building, suggesting the hollow tile entry is an outlier/copy-paste mistake rather than a true building feature.
Dozens of public remarks for this concrete high-rise never mention masonry or stucco, and only 2 of 20 current MLS entries mark MASSTU despite long-term patterns showing it unchecked. Given the lack of textual support and the small, inconsistent MLS usage, masonry/stucco construction is very unlikely.
No analysis available
Just 1 of 20 listings identifies SLAB, and none of the public remarks mention a concrete slab or solid concrete foundation. Because the feature lacks prior support and appears only once without descriptive confirmation, it is excluded as likely an unverified checkbox.

There is moderate evidence for above-ground construction. While only 4 of 20 MLS entries currently carry ABOGRO, the public remarks repeatedly reference the building as a high-rise with rooftop pool/deck amenities on the 27th floor, which is consistent with an above-ground structure. The evidence is mostly implied rather than explicitly described.
Brick construction is not supported by the available evidence. Only 1 of 20 MLS listings marks BRICK, and the public remarks across the building do not mention brick exterior, brick construction, or brick-and-mortar details. This appears to be a stray MLS checkbox rather than a real building feature.
No analysis available
The remarks support general investment or rental use but do not explicitly authorize short-term rentals. No NUC, TVU, hotel-use, vacation-rental, or other STR-permitting language was found, so STR is treated as not allowed based on the available remarks.
The building pool is consistently presented as a residential rooftop amenity, not a hotel rental pool. Because STR permission is not established and no hotel rental program is referenced, this feature is false.
The listings contain no evidence of a hotel rental program, much less a requirement that every unit participate. Since STR is not established and no mandatory rental-pool language was found, this feature is false.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings consistently identify Kapiolani Manor as fee simple, so a leasehold expiration does not apply. Searches for lease expiry, ground lease, leasehold, and renewal dates found no applicable expiration year.
The remarks explicitly identify an assumable VA loan and discuss buyer VA eligibility and the VA funding fee. This is direct, high-confidence evidence that VA financing is supported for at least this building/unit.
Multiple listings explicitly describe Kapiolani Manor as "fully insured." The repeated, consistent statements strongly support that the building is fully insured by the HOA.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for explicit references to a passed fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE approval, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, or a passed fire inspection. None were found, so the remarks do not provide evidence that this evaluation has passed.
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 supported across the listing history and current remarks, despite only 5 of 20 current MLS records being marked OCEAN. Listings repeatedly state phrases such as "ocean views," "Pacific Ocean," "ocean from the lanai," and "sweeping ocean" views, including multiple high-floor and corner units.
Mountain views are strongly supported across the building: 14 of 20 current MLS listings contain MOUNTA, and many remarks from different listings explicitly mention "mountain view," "mountain and city views," or "sweeping mountain...view." Although 3 listings contain NONE, the repeated detailed descriptions across multiple agents confirm that mountain-view units are offered in the building.
Diamond Head views are clearly available in the building, with 6 of 20 current MLS listings marked DIAHEA. Multiple remarks explicitly cite "Diamond Head views," "sweeping Diamond Head" views, or views of Diamond Head crater alongside ocean, canal, mountain, and city views.
City views are exceptionally well supported: 17 of 20 current MLS listings contain CITY, with numerous remarks explicitly citing "city views," "city skyline," and "panoramic city and ocean views." The evidence is consistent across many listings and agents, so the 3 listings marked NONE do not undermine the building-level feature.

Marina-related views are supported by multiple explicit remarks, including “marina view,” “marina/canal,” “ocean and harbor views,” and “Ala Wai Canal” views. Although only 2 of 20 current MLS records are marked MARCAN, the repeated descriptions across high-floor and Diamond Head-side units confirm that the building offers marina/canal views.
There are no clear sunrise-specific phrases in the public remarks, so this feature is only weakly supported from the MLS side. The current MLS data shows SUNRIS in 2/20 listings, which suggests some units may have sunrise/eastern exposure. Confidence is therefore moderate-low compared with the strong ocean and city evidence.
Sunset/evening views are supported across multiple listings, with at least one explicit mention of "sunset" and several references to Friday night fireworks, evening city lights, and night-sky views. Although only 1 of 20 current MLS view descriptions is marked SUNSET and 4 are marked NONE, the broader remarks and historically high confidence indicate the building offers sunset-view units rather than this being a simple checkbox copy-paste error.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly describe Friday night fireworks views from units or lanais. This meets the requirement for a building view from residences, rather than merely being near the fireworks.

No analysis available
At least 12 listings explicitly mention a resident or on-site manager, including “Kapiolani Manor is a secured building with resident manager,” “on-site resident manager,” and “a resident manager for added convenience.” The evidence is strong across multiple listings and aligns with the current MLS amenity data showing RESMAN in 16 of 20 listings, although some descriptions appear to reuse standard building-amenity language.
