Kinau Lanais
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 highest MLS floor and floor-from-unit evidence reach 21, with strong field/unit-number agreement, and the state registration also lists 21 floors. The county's 22-floor count is set aside as a differing structural count.
The county's reconciled residential-unit count and the state registration both report 183 units for this single-building record. The county dwell_sum and state's residential_units are lower subsidiary figures and are not used over these authoritative totals.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 852. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The remarks confirm that elevators exist in the building. However, no explicit numeric count such as 2, 3, or 4 elevators was found, so the number of elevators cannot be determined from these listings.
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.

Seventeen of 20 listings identify OTCOEX in the association fee inclusions. No remarks explicitly quote 'common area electricity,' but the feature is supported by consistent MLS data across most listings rather than a single copied remark.

Eight of 20 listings mark HOTWAT as included, compared with three listing WTRHTR, indicating inconsistent MLS coding. One remark explicitly says, 'There is a central water heater so there is no need to worry about having to maintain one in your unit,' which supports included central hot water but does not fully resolve the data conflict.

Nineteen of 20 listings include SEWER in the association fee fields. No public remark specifically states 'sewer included,' but the consistency across nearly all listings is strong evidence and is unlikely to be an isolated agent error.
Nineteen of 20 listings mark WATER as included in the association fee data. Public remarks generally omit fee details and do not explicitly state that water is included, but the broad agreement across listings provides strong support.
At least 15 of 20 current listings report BBQ, and many separate remarks explicitly mention a "BBQ area" or "barbecue area." The repeated confirmation across numerous agents strongly supports this as a shared building amenity rather than a copied checkbox error.

I found no remark-level evidence for a meeting/conference room at Kinau Lanais. The current MLS checkbox appears in only 2/20 listings, but there are no descriptions supporting a dedicated room for meetings or conferences. This is insufficient to validate the feature at the building level.
At least 20 current remarks mention a lanai, patio, balcony, or similar outdoor space, with repeated descriptions of spacious or covered lanais and the specific 169-square-foot size. The evidence is strong across many listings and agents, consistently identifying private or enclosed lanais as unit features rather than a likely copy-paste error.

Across the provided listings, 0 listings explicitly mention a private yard; references are to lanais, balconies, garden space, or shared BBQ/pool areas. The sparse MLS PRIYAR flag (2/20) is not reinforced by remarks, so this feature is not supported with confidence.
No analysis available
Nine of 20 current listings report a recreation-area amenity, and one detailed listing specifically calls it a "covered outdoor/recreation space for gathering." Additional remarks repeatedly mention a clubhouse, providing corroborating evidence that the building offers shared recreation space.
There is no strong evidence that the building has a true recreation room. The only nearby wording is a “covered outdoor/recreation space for gathering,” which suggests a common gathering area rather than a dedicated rec room. With only 1/20 MLS listings showing RECROO and no clear supporting remarks, this appears more likely to be a checkbox error than a verified amenity.

Trash chute appears in 18 of 20 current MLS listings, making it one of the most consistently reported building features. A public remark explicitly lists "trash chute" among the building amenities, confirming the feature despite limited narrative repetition.

The pool is strongly validated across the listings: at least 20 listings explicitly mention a swimming pool or pool-related amenity, including "swimming pool," "large pool," and "lovely sparkling pool." Evidence comes from numerous remarks and consistently matches the MLS amenity data, so this appears to be a genuine building amenity rather than simple isolated copy-paste.

In-unit laundry is strongly confirmed across the building: at least 18 of 20 current listings identify washer/dryer inclusions, and many separate remarks explicitly mention “in-unit washer/dryer,” “washer and dryer in unit,” or “full-size washer and dryer.” One listing mentions only washer/dryer hookups, but the consistent confirmations across numerous agents support including this feature.

Parking is confirmed across numerous listings from multiple apparent listing records, with at least 20 listings referencing a parking stall, garage, covered parking, or open parking. Remarks consistently describe resident parking and often guest parking, strongly confirming that the building offers parking.
Assigned parking is explicitly mentioned in well over 15 listings, including multiple descriptions of covered or secured assigned stalls. The repeated wording appears partly copy-pasted across listings but is supported by the MLS data and consistent remarks from multiple listing records.
Approximately 15 or more listings describe covered, garage, or sheltered parking. Key phrases include 'covered parking in garage,' 'secured covered parking stall,' and 'gated covered parking,' with consistent confirmation across many listings rather than a single copied remark.
The listings repeatedly mention an assigned parking stall, including covered and gated stalls, and one mentions an extra rented stall. No remark says the parking is deeded, owned, included in the deed, or otherwise separately conveyed.
No analysis available
A public remark explicitly states a $150 monthly rental fee for an extra parking stall. The fee appears to apply to the additional stall, while the unit's assigned stall is described separately.
At least 9 listings explicitly mention guest or visitor parking, including multiple references to six guest parking stalls. The feature is repeated across different descriptions and is presented as a building amenity, supporting that buyers can expect guest parking to be available.
Multiple listings explicitly describe gated or secured parking and building access. Examples include 'parking stall is covered, assigned and secured by a parking gate,' 'secured covered parking stall,' and 'Kinau Lanais also comes with six guest parking stalls, secured entry,' confirming this is a recurring building feature.

Multiple listings explicitly confirm window air conditioning, including phrases such as “newer window AC,” “window A/C,” “2 window AC units,” and “w/window AC.” The evidence spans numerous listings and is consistent with the current MLS inclusion data showing ACWIUN in 17/20 listings, so this is strong multi-listing evidence rather than an isolated checkbox or copy-paste error.
Concrete construction is identified in 15 of 20 current listings, consistent with the previously High-confidence assessment that 16 of 20 listings reported concrete. Public remarks do not explicitly quote 'concrete construction' or 'reinforced concrete,' but the MLS evidence is strong across many listings.
Double-wall construction appears in 5 of 20 current listings, compared with 4 of 20 in the prior assessment. No public remarks mention 'double wall,' 'double-wall construction,' or 'two walls,' so evidence is moderate-to-weak and may partly reflect copied MLS selections.
No analysis available
Four of 20 listings currently mark the construction as MASSTU (masonry/stucco); no listing remarks explicitly describes or disputes the building’s construction materials. The evidence is consistent with the prior high-confidence assessment, but MLS checkbox reporting is inconsistent and appears to be omitted by many agents.

The remarks were searched for short-term-rental permission, vacation-rental language, STR, NUC, TVU, and minimum-stay restrictions. No evidence supports short-term rental authorization, so it is treated as not allowed based on the available remarks.
References to the building's swimming pool describe a residential amenity, not a hotel rental pool. Because short-term-rental permission is not supported, the hotel rental pool prerequisite is also not met.
The listings contain no language about mandatory hotel operations or required participation in a rental program. Short-term-rental permission is not established, so mandatory hotel pool participation cannot apply.

The remarks were searched for leasehold, land lease, ground lease, lease expiry, renewal, and extension language. One listing identifies the property as fee simple, and no specific lease-expiration year was found, so the expiry is not applicable or unknown.
Multiple remarks explicitly confirm VA financing eligibility, including an assumable VA loan and a statement that the building is VA approved. This is strong direct evidence that VA financing is available.
The remarks were searched for fully insured, full insurance, comprehensive building insurance, walls-in coverage, and similar HOA insurance language. No explicit insurance coverage statement was found.
Only 1 of 20 current MLS listings includes the FIRSPR amenity flag, and none of the public remarks (0/20) mention 'fire sprinkler', 'sprinkler system', or 'fire suppression'. Given the lack of any textual confirmation across multiple agent remarks and the very low prevalence of the checkbox, it is most likely the building does not have a fire sprinkler system; the single checked listing appears to be an agent data entry error.
The remarks were searched for fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE, fire-safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed-inspection language. None of these terms or equivalent statements were found.

Ocean views are strongly supported across many listings for Kinau Lanais. Roughly a dozen current remarks explicitly reference ocean views in different phrasings, which looks consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy/paste error. The MLS history also supports this, with ocean appearing in multiple view descriptions.
At least 8 of 20 current listings identify mountain views, and multiple independent remarks explicitly mention 'mountain views,' 'city and mountain views,' 'Diamond Head views,' and 'mauka to makai views.' The evidence is consistent across high-floor and other units and supports a building-level offering rather than a single copied description.
Diamond Head views are less common than ocean or mountain views, but they are still explicitly supported by the public remarks. At least one listing directly says 'beautiful ocean, Diamond Head, mountains views,' which is a clear agent statement rather than an inference. The MLS data also shows Diamond Head in some view descriptions, reinforcing that some units in the building offer it.
City views appear in 16 of 20 current listings, with repeated explicit phrases including 'expansive city views,' 'sweeping city and mountain views,' 'panoramic city, ocean, and mountain views,' and 'beautiful views of the city/downtown.' The feature is strongly corroborated across many listings and agents, even though some remarks omit views.

Sunrise views are supported by explicit references in several listings, though far fewer than city or ocean views. The strongest evidence comes from remarks like "sunrise views" and "east-facing," suggesting this is a real but less common view orientation in the building.
There are no explicit mentions of 'sunset', 'western exposure', or similar phrasing in the provided remarks (mentions instead include 'sunrise' and 'city lights'). Given only 1/20 MLS listings historically included SUNSET and the lack of corroborating remarks here, evidence is weak and we mark sunset views as not supported.

At least 11 listings explicitly mention the feature, using phrases such as “on-site resident manager,” “site manager,” “excellent on-site manager,” and “Resident Mgr office in the lobby.” The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and strongly confirms that Kinau Lanais has a resident/on-site manager.
