Kapiolani Residence
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 remarks mention opportunities for homeowners, owner-occupants, and investors, but do not state the percentage of owner-occupied units. No phrases such as "80% owner occupied," "majority owner occupied," or "highly owner occupied" were found.
The remarks were searched for an elevator count or phrases such as "4 elevators," "four elevators," or "multiple elevators," but none were found. The elevator count remains unknown.
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.

Cable inclusion is explicitly mentioned in approximately 5 listings, with phrases such as 'includes cable and internet service' and 'maintenance fee covers internet, water, sewer, and cable TV.' One listing says cable is billed separately, but the broader MLS pattern and multiple independent remarks strongly support cable being included.
No public remark clearly states 'common area electricity' or 'common electric' is included, so the evidence is primarily MLS-based rather than remark-based. OTCOEX appears in 9 of 20 current listings, and historical confidence was high, supporting inclusion despite limited descriptive text.

No current listing remarks mention hot water being included in the maintenance fee. The strongest contrary evidence is that 15 of 20 listings include WTRHTR, while HOTWAT is absent from all 20 current MLS records, indicating unit-level water heating rather than included building hot water.
Internet inclusion is supported by at least 6 explicit listing remarks and by the strong current MLS pattern of 14/20 listings checking INTSER. The repeated wording across multiple listings and agents confirms this is a building-level feature, although one listing separately bills cable and does not contradict internet inclusion.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is explicitly mentioned in approximately 4 listings and is checked in 18 of 20 current MLS records. The consistent references across multiple listings strongly establish that sewer is included in the building's maintenance fees.
Water inclusion is explicitly mentioned in approximately 4 listing remarks and appears in 18 of 20 current MLS records. The repeated water-and-sewer descriptions across different listings provide strong, consistent building-level evidence.
At least 8 listings explicitly mention building BBQ amenities, including “private BBQ cabanas,” “amenity deck...gather and grill,” “BBQ areas,” and “BBQ area with separate dining areas.” The feature is also present in 19 of 20 current MLS records, with strong confirmation across multiple distinct remarks.

No listing identifies a clubhouse or community center; references are instead to BBQ areas, recreation rooms, party rooms, pavilions, and amenity decks. The feature appears in only 2 of 20 current MLS records and lacks independent textual confirmation, so it is omitted.
No substantive evidence of a concierge service: across the many public remarks reviewed there are zero explicit mentions of 'concierge' or 'concierge service' (remarks instead reference on-site management or a resident manager). Although 4 of 20 MLS records currently have the CONCIE checkbox checked, the lack of any explicit phrasing in public remarks and historical absence indicate the concierge service is not supported by available listing text.

Moderate-to-strong evidence the building has a meeting/conference room: 5/20 current MLS listings include MEEROO and multiple remarks state "meeting room" or reference a party/rec room suitable for gatherings. Mentions are explicit in agent remarks across listings, so the feature is included.
The building clearly offers patio/deck-style amenities. At least 8+ listings mention shared outdoor space using phrases like 'amenity deck,' 'recreation deck,' 'outdoor pavilions,' 'party room,' and 'private BBQ cabanas,' and many units also mention a lanai. The evidence is consistent across multiple listings and appears to be building-level, not a one-off unit feature.

There is strong evidence of a shared recreation area in the building. Listings refer to an “amenity deck,” “recreation deck,” and “the recreational deck on top of the parking structure,” suggesting a common resident amenity rather than a unit-specific feature. The MLS history also supports this with RECARE in 6/20 listings.
Approximately 6 listings explicitly mention a “recreation room,” “comfortable recreation room,” “party room,” or “recreation deck” used for gatherings. The repeated descriptions across listings, together with the RECROO checkbox in 8 of 20 records, strongly confirm this building amenity.
No public remark confirms a restaurant or dining facility within Kapiolani Residence. Restaurant references are clearly external, such as “restaurants just outside the front entrance,” “dining at Ala Moana Center,” and nearby “Beach Park Resturant”; the 1/20 checkbox is therefore likely a mistaken classification.

Multiple listings confirm bicycle storage as a building amenity. Searches for surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, and combined bike-and-surf storage found no qualifying mention.
No analysis available
One listing explicitly states, “Amenities include guest parking, BBQ, party room & trash chute.” Although few other remarks name the system directly, the feature is checked in 18 of 20 current MLS records and matches the prior high-confidence conclusion.

The current building context indicates there is no pool, and the public remarks list amenities such as BBQ areas, recreation decks, party rooms, bicycle storage, and EV charging without mentioning a pool. There is no evidence of a saltwater pool.
In-unit laundry is strongly validated across the building: at least 9 current remarks explicitly mention a washer and dryer, including stackable, full-sized, and in-unit configurations. This aligns with the 20/20 MLS inclusion data and prior high-confidence evidence across multiple listings, so the feature should be included.
No analysis available
The listings consistently describe in-unit laundry rather than shared laundry facilities. Searches for coin-operated, paid, fee-based, card-operated, and quarter-operated laundry produced no qualifying evidence.
The remarks repeatedly describe private in-unit or full-size washers and dryers, including "in-unit laundry" and "full size washer & dryer." No public remark indicates community laundry facilities on every floor.
No analysis available
At least 4 listings explicitly mention assigned parking, using phrases such as "assigned parking stall," "own assigned parking stall," and "assigned uncovered parking space." The evidence appears across multiple listings and is consistent with the current MLS data, strongly supporting assigned parking as a building feature.
At least 6 listings explicitly describe covered or secured covered parking, including "one covered parking stall" and "2 covered side by side parking." This is supported universally by current MLS data and by remarks from multiple listings, making covered parking a very strong building-level feature.
Multiple listings describe parking as assigned, covered, secured, or included, including "one covered parking stall included." None explicitly say the stall is deeded, owned, or included in the deed.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for parking fees, monthly parking charges, parking rental, and additional parking costs. Maintenance fees and utility charges are mentioned, but no parking-specific fee is provided.
At least 5 listings mention guest parking, including specific details such as "24 guest parking spaces" and "generous 24 stalls of guest parking." The repeated references across different listings, together with the majority of current MLS records, strongly support guest parking at the building.
There is solid evidence that parking has secured access. Remarks mention 'secured entrance,' 'secure parking,' and '1 covered secured parking stall,' which is consistent with the smaller but matching MLS SECENT subset. While mentioned less often than covered or guest parking, the wording is explicit enough to support the feature.
No analysis available

The listings discuss assigned, covered, secured, and guest parking, including 24 guest parking spaces. No statement indicates that residents must join or may join a parking waitlist.
No analysis available
The building is repeatedly described as secure, but the required card- or fob-based access terminology is absent. Generic secured-entry language is insufficient to confirm this feature.
Security service is consistently supported across the building: at least 8 current listings explicitly mention security personnel or service, including '24/7 security,' 'professional security staff,' and '24-hour security.' The evidence appears across multiple agents and aligns with the strong historical confidence and 15/20 current MLS amenity selections.
The listings establish an on-site or professional security presence. They do not specifically state that the building has patrol, roving security, or a patrol service.
No analysis available
No listings explicitly mention central air or a building-wide HVAC system. The isolated current ACCEN checkbox/inclusion appears inconsistent with the strong historical absence and repeated references to unit-level split AC, so central_ac is not supported.
At least 9 listings explicitly mention split, split-system, or zoned AC, including descriptions of systems in each room and two split AC systems in one unit. The 19/20 ACSPL inclusion rate across the building confirms this is a consistent building feature rather than an isolated or copied remark.
No analysis available
Concrete is supported across 18 of 20 current MLS listings and was previously rated high confidence. A listing explicitly calls Kapiolani Residence a "glass, and concrete high-rise," confirming the construction type across the building.
None of the provided listings mention double-wall construction or equivalent wording. Only 6 of 20 current listings contain DOUWAL, with no corroborating remarks from multiple agents, so the checkbox evidence is insufficient to include this feature.
No public remarks mention hollow tile construction. Although 2 of 20 listings contain HOLTIL, the absence of supporting language across the listings makes this weak and likely erroneous checkbox data.

No analysis available
No listings explicitly mention "concrete slab" or "solid concrete foundation." The only related wording is generic construction language like "glass, and concrete high-rise," which is not enough to verify slab foundation for a building-level feature.
No analysis available
Wood-frame construction is not supported by the public remarks. Although 2 of 20 current MLS listings have WOOFRA checked, there are zero remarks references to wood frame or wood-frame construction. This looks more like inconsistent MLS input than a confirmed building characteristic.
No analysis available
Only 2 of 20 MLS listings currently list BRICK and there are no public-remarks mentions such as 'brick exterior' or 'brick construction' across the listings. Given the absence of supporting remarks and low prevalence in MLS checkboxes, the evidence indicates the building is not brick-built (the few BRICK checks appear to be isolated/checkbox errors).
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for short-term rental, vacation rental, NUC, TVU, legal STR, rental minimums, and owner-occupant restrictions. None were found, so STR permission is not supported by the public remarks.
The remarks were searched for hotel rental pool, rental program, hotel operations, Hilton, Trump, Ritz, and similar terms. No such language was found, and the STR prerequisite is not established.
The remarks were searched for mandatory rental-pool participation, required hotel programs, and statements that owners cannot opt out. None were found, and this feature must remain false because STR is not established.

No analysis available
The remarks were searched for leasehold wording, lease expiration dates, ground lease terms, and renewal or extension dates. No specific lease-expiry year was found.
The remarks were searched for phrases such as "VA approved," "VA financing," and "VA loans accepted." None were found, so VA loan approval is not supported by the public remarks.
The remarks directly confirm that the building became fully insured on December 6, 2024. This is explicit, highly reliable evidence supporting full HOA building insurance.
Evidence strongly supports fire sprinkler coverage in this building. Historical MLS data shows 11 of 20 listings with FIRSPR in amenities, and one current remark explicitly says "bonus in unit fire sprinkler." The consistency of the MLS history plus the direct mention makes this a high-confidence feature rather than a copy-paste error.
No remarks mention an FLSE passing, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, or a passed fire inspection. A reference to an in-unit fire sprinkler does not establish that the building passed its fire/life safety evaluation.
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 mentioned in at least 8 of 20 current listings, including descriptions of "ocean and beach views," "spectacular ocean and mountain views," and panoramic ocean views. The evidence appears across multiple units and agents rather than relying solely on one repeated phrase, strongly supporting that the building offers ocean-view units.
Mountain views are strongly supported across multiple listings and agents, with at least 17 of 20 current MLS records mentioning them. Remarks consistently use explicit phrases such as "tranquil mountain views," "majestic mountains," and "panoramic Diamond Head, Ocean, Canal, Mountain and City views," confirming this is a building-offered view rather than an isolated unsupported claim.
Diamond Head views are explicitly confirmed in at least one high-detail listing remark and reinforced by MLS view data. While less common than ocean or mountain views, the evidence is direct and specific enough to include this feature for buyers searching for Diamond Head views.
City views are strongly supported across multiple listings, with 16 of 20 current MLS records mentioning them. Remarks include "breathtaking, panoramic views of the Honolulu skyline," "sweeping city views," "Honolulu’s dynamic skyline," and "beautiful ocean, city, sunset views," indicating the building offers city-view units.

Across all provided listings, agents repeatedly market ocean, mountain, city, sunset, and fireworks views but never mention sunrise, morning sun, or eastern exposure. Together with 0/20 MLS records flagging SUNRIS, this suggests with high confidence that sunrise views are not a meaningful or advertised feature of this building.
Sunset views are repeatedly confirmed in the remarks, with multiple listings calling out "golden sunsets," "sunset views," and "glowing sunsets." One listing also mentions fireworks visible over Waikiki on Friday nights, which fits the sunset/evening-view definition. The consistency across several agents suggests this is a real building-level feature rather than a mistaken MLS checkbox.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly state that Friday-night fireworks are visible from units in the building. This directly satisfies the requirement for a fireworks view from the building.

Resident/on-site management is strongly supported: RESMAN appears in 14 of 20 current listings, and at least 5 remarks explicitly reference on-site or professional management. The repeated wording appears across multiple listings and is consistent with the building’s established high-confidence history, rather than an isolated copied checkbox.
