Keola Lai
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 the remarks for exact percentages and phrases indicating owner occupancy, but found none. Since owner occupancy is only supported by explicit remarks here, I cannot infer a percentage from the listing text.
I searched the remarks for any explicit elevator count or elevator-related wording tied to the building, but found nothing. Because this is only determinable from public remarks and no current value was provided, the number of elevators 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.

Cable TV inclusion is supported by both the MLS pattern and direct public remarks. One listing explicitly says 'Cable TV & Internet included in Maintenance,' while the current MLS data shows CABTV in 14 of 20 listings, suggesting this is a real building-level fee inclusion rather than a one-off agent mistake.
Common area electricity appears to be included in many, but not all, current listings. The strongest positive remark says the fee covers a portion of shared common area electric, while another listing explicitly says common area electricity is billed separately, suggesting inconsistent reporting or changing billing treatment. Overall the MLS pattern still supports inclusion at the building level with moderate confidence.

There is strong evidence that hot water is not included in the maintenance fee. None of the current MLS entries list HOTWAT, while most show WTRHTR or similar unit-level hot water heater references. Public remarks align with this pattern, including a note that the "A/C and Hot Water Heater were replaced recently," which points to in-unit equipment rather than building-supplied hot water.
Internet inclusion is strongly supported by the current MLS and public remarks. The building data shows INTSER in 16 of 20 listings, and one detailed remark states 'Cable TV & Internet included in Maintenance' and notes resident wifi availability in shared areas, reinforcing that internet is included in the maintenance package.
No analysis available
Sewer appears to be included in the maintenance/association fees across the entire sample. All 20 of 20 current MLS listings include SEWER, making this one of the strongest possible building-level confirmations.
Water is consistently included in the maintenance/association fees across the building. Every one of the 20 current MLS listings shows WATER, so this feature should be treated as highly reliable and building-wide.
BBQ/grilling facilities are clearly present and consistently marketed. The feature appears in every MLS record and is reinforced by multiple remarks from different listings, including 'BBQ cabanas,' 'BBQ grills,' and 'BBQ area.' This is very high-confidence and not likely to be a data mistake.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Car wash facilities are supported by explicit public remarks, including one listing that states 'car wash area.' While the MLS checkbox history is not as strong as other amenities, the direct mention is specific enough to trust. This appears to be a real shared building feature.

Strong, repeated evidence supports an exercise room/fitness center in the building. Across many listings, agents describe it as a 'fitness center,' 'fitness room,' 'exercise room,' or 'gym,' and the MLS history is nearly unanimous (19/20). This looks like a real shared amenity rather than copy-paste error.

Strong evidence across multiple listings that Keola La'i offers building-level outdoor spaces: at least a dozen remarks reference lanais or shared outdoor amenities, e.g., "private lanai," "spacious lanai area," "BBQ areas/BBQ cabanas," and "amenity deck that features a spacious pool, BBQ grills." Historical data already rated this feature High; current remarks from diverse listings/agents consistently confirm it, indicating the building does offer patios/decks.

There is solid support for a shared recreation area in the building. Multiple listings explicitly mention 'recreation area' or 'rec area,' and one describes the amenity deck as a place to entertain with pool, BBQ grills, and gym access. The evidence is consistent across different remarks and agents.

The remarks clearly support surfboard storage. Multiple listings explicitly mention 'bike/surfboard storage' or 'surfboard storage' among the amenities. This is strong, repeated public evidence for the feature.
No analysis available
Trash chute is strongly supported by the MLS history, with 19 of 20 listings showing the amenity. Current remarks are silent, but that is common for utilitarian building features and does not outweigh the historical pattern. There is no indication of a legitimate change, so it should remain included.

Whirlpool/spa amenities are well supported by both historical MLS data and public remarks. Listings repeatedly mention 'whirlpool spa,' 'whirlpool,' 'Jacuzzi,' and 'pool & spa,' showing consistent cross-listing confirmation. This is a high-confidence shared amenity.
Pool is strongly supported across the building: 20/20 MLS listings include it in amenities, and many separate remarks mention it directly. The descriptions are consistent across multiple agents and repeatedly reference shared resort-style amenities such as a pool, swimming pool, heated pool, and lap-pool, so this does not appear to be a copy-paste error.
Multiple listings (at least 6 of 20) and several remarks explicitly reference heating: phrases include "heated pool", "large heated pool", and "heated lap-pool." The heated designation appears in multiple agents' remarks and in MLS HEAPOO checkboxes, supporting inclusion of a heated pool as a building amenity.
I looked for terms like salt water pool, saltwater pool, or salt pool. The remarks repeatedly mention a pool, heated pool, and whirlpool spa, but never identify the pool as saltwater. Based on the public remarks, this feature is unconfirmed and not evidenced.
Strong evidence supports in-unit laundry at Keola La'i. The current MLS data shows washer/dryer in the inclusions for 20/20 listings, and several remarks explicitly confirm it with phrases like "in-unit washer and dryer," "washer/dryer in unit," and "Stack Washer & Dryer." The repeated confirmation across multiple listings suggests this is reliable and not just copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
I searched for signs of paid community laundry, including coin-op, coin laundry, card-operated machines, and similar terms. The remarks only reference in-unit washer/dryer or a laundry room, with no indication of a paid shared laundry system. There is no public evidence supporting this feature.
I looked for public remarks indicating laundry facilities on each floor, such as 'laundry on every floor' or 'floor-by-floor laundry.' The listings mention in-unit washer/dryer and one separate walk-in laundry room, but nothing about community laundry locations. Based on the remarks, this feature is not evidenced.
All 20 MLS records include parking features and numerous public remarks repeatedly state unit-level parking (e.g., "2 parking spaces", "Two parking stalls", "2 covered parking stall unit"). Evidence is consistent across many agent remarks and MLS checkbox data, indicating building parking is available.
Assigned/reserved parking is strongly supported across the building. Current remarks repeatedly mention specific stall counts and types such as "2 parking stalls," "2 side by side parking stalls," "2 assigned-tandem stalls," and "2 individual parking stalls." Together with the high MLS match rate (16/20), this appears to be a real building-level feature rather than copy-paste noise.
Covered parking is clearly a building feature. Several remarks directly mention "secured garage," "enclosed garage," "protected parking garage," and multiple listings call out "2 covered parking stalls." The repeated wording across many listings plus the strong MLS record makes this high confidence.
I looked for explicit deeded-parking wording such as "deeded parking," "owned stall," or "parking included in deed," and found none. The listings consistently describe the number and type of stalls, but that is not enough to confirm deeded parking.
No analysis available
I searched for parking fee language such as monthly parking rent, added parking charge, or a separate stall fee, but found nothing. The listings discuss parking availability and stall count, not a specific monthly parking cost.
Guest parking appears to be a genuine shared amenity at this building. Current remarks repeatedly reference "abundant guest parking," "guest parking stalls available (23)," and "plenty of guest parking stalls," which aligns with the strong MLS signal (17/20). This is consistent across multiple listings and agents, not just a single copy-paste mention.
Secured parking/entry is well supported, though slightly less universal than covered or guest parking. Listings mention 'secured garage,' 'secured building and parking,' 'advanced security features,' and 24-hour security, aligning with the MLS record showing SECENT in 13/20 listings. Overall evidence strongly supports a secured parking/entry setup.
4 of 20 MLS records list tandem and remarks include explicit phrases like "two assigned-tandem stalls for the unit," but other listings state "side-by-side" or "non-tandem," so tandem parking exists for some units (not all), supported by multiple agent remarks.
No analysis available
I looked for any reference to a parking waitlist, waiting list, or joining a list for parking and found none. The public remarks suggest parking is readily available in-unit rather than managed through a waitlist system.
No analysis available
I searched for card/fob access wording such as key card access, electronic entry, or card reader systems. The remarks do describe the building as secure and mention 24-hour security, but they do not specify card-based access. There is no public-remark evidence for this feature.
Security guard service is strongly supported across the listings and appears consistently in both MLS amenities and agent remarks. At least 10+ remarks explicitly mention "24-hour security" or similar language, and multiple listings add details like "on-site security guard," "professional and friendly security team," and "security on patrol." This is high-confidence, building-level evidence that the feature is present.
This feature is directly supported by the public remarks. One listing explicitly says the building has 'security on patrol,' and others reference a security team and 24-hour security. That is strong evidence that patrol service is present.
No analysis available
Central air conditioning is strongly supported for Keola La'i/Keola Lai. Multiple current listings explicitly mention it across different agents and units, including phrases such as "new central AC system," "Central A/C," and "Central AC & Washer/Dryer in-unit," indicating this is not just a copy-paste checkbox artifact. The evidence is consistent with the prior high-confidence record and there is no sign of a legitimate change away from central AC.
3 of 20 current MLS listings list ACSPL in inclusions, suggesting some units may have split/ductless AC. However, none of the public remarks mention 'split', 'mini-split', or 'ductless', while many ads state 'central A/C' or 'central AC'; evidence is limited to a few MLS checkbox entries across different listings and appears uncertain, so further owner/manager verification is recommended.
No analysis available
Concrete construction is strongly supported by the current MLS data, with 17 of 20 listings marked CONCRE. None of the public remarks explicitly call out a material change, so this appears to be stable building-level information rather than a copy-paste error. Confidence remains very high because the MLS checkbox pattern is consistent across many listings.
Only 6 of 20 MLS listings have double-wall (DOUWAL) checked and none of the public remarks mention "double wall" or similar. This sparse, inconsistent MLS tagging and lack of textual confirmation suggests double-wall construction is not reliably documented for the building.
No analysis available
5 of 20 current MLS listings include the MASSTU construction code, but zero public remarks reference 'masonry' or 'stucco'. The evidence is weak and inconsistent across listings; include the feature with low confidence because some listings indicate it in MLS checkboxes despite no supporting language in agent remarks.
5 of 20 current MLS listings include the STEFRA construction code, but zero public remarks mention 'steel frame' or similar phrasing. The evidence is weak and appears inconsistent across agents (likely copy/paste); include the feature with low confidence because some listings' checkboxes report it despite lack of supporting remarks.
Only 2 of 20 MLS listings list a concrete slab (SLAB) and public remarks make no reference to a "concrete slab" or similar foundation. The very low occurrence and lack of textual confirmation indicate slab foundation is not reliably supported by available remarks.

I searched for short-term rental indicators like STR allowed, legal vacation rental, NUC/TVU, or hotel-rental references, but found no evidence. Because the remarks do not support STR approval, this is treated as not allowed based on the provided listings.
I looked for references to hotel pools, hotel-managed rentals, Hilton/Ritz-style programs, or other rental pool language and found none. Since the listings do not indicate STR permission, this feature must be false.
I searched for language indicating required participation in a hotel or rental pool, such as "mandatory," "must be in pool," or "cannot opt out," and found nothing. The remarks also do not show any STR approval, so mandatory pooling is false.

I searched for leasehold language such as lease expiry, ground lease end dates, renewal terms, or references like "lease expires in ####," but found none. The remarks do not provide any year for a land lease expiration.
The public remarks provide strong, repeated evidence that VA financing is accepted at this building. One listing even highlights an assumable VA loan, which is direct confirmation. This is high-confidence support for VA loan approval.
This feature is directly confirmed in the public remarks, which strongly supports full HOA building insurance / walls-in coverage. There were no contradictory remarks, and the statement is explicit and clear.
Fire sprinklers are supported by both the historical MLS data and the current public remarks. At least 2 listings explicitly mention sprinklers/fire sprinklers, including one that says the building is "a newer property with sprinklers" and another that lists "fire sprinklers" among the unit features. This appears to be consistent building-level information rather than copy-paste noise.
I looked for FLSE language, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, or any note that the building passed a fire inspection. The remarks mention sprinklers and security, but that is not the same as an explicit fire/life safety evaluation pass.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Ocean views are strongly confirmed for Keola La'i. Multiple current remarks explicitly mention "ocean views," "slight ocean views," "sweeping ocean, city, and mountain views," and "panoramic ocean, harbor, mountain, and city views," indicating this is a real building-level feature rather than a one-off agent error. The repeated language across many listings suggests consistent, genuine ocean-view units in the building.
Mountain views are well supported at the building level. Many current remarks explicitly mention mountain-facing or mountain-inclusive views, including 'mountain, city and ocean views' and 'panoramic Mauka to Makai views.' The repeated references across multiple listings make this a strong confirmed feature.
No analysis available
City views are strongly confirmed across Keola La'i. Current remarks repeatedly reference "city views," "urban living," "skyline," and "panoramic... city views," appearing across multiple listings and agents. The consistency of this wording aligns with the very strong historical MLS signal that the building offers city-view units.

No listings (CURRENT MLS: 0/20) or public remarks mention cemetery or overlooks cemetery; phrases like "cemetery view" do not appear. Given the complete lack of references across multiple listings, there is high confidence the building does not offer cemetery views.
I looked for explicit statements like 'fireworks view,' 'watch fireworks from the lanai,' or 'see fireworks from the unit.' The remarks discuss ocean, city, mountain, harbor, and sunset views, but do not mention fireworks visibility. So this feature is not supported by the public remarks.
No analysis available
Resident manager is strongly supported by both historical MLS data and current remarks. At least 2 listings explicitly mention on-site management, including phrases like "dedicated on-site manager" and "resident manager." The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and appears to reflect a real building feature.
