Kukui Plaza

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.

No analysis available

Floors
32
High

The county assessor reports 32 floors, and the MLS floor field reaches 32 with the unit-number floors broadly agreeing. The state registration's 33-floor figure is set aside because REB floors are unreliable.

Total Units
896
Medium

The county's reconciled residential count is 896, matching the currently stored value and covering only this building's parcel. The state registration reports conflicting figures of 1,848 total units and 908 residential units, so it is not adopted over the county count.

Owner Occupancy
—
Low

I searched for explicit percentages such as "80% owner occupied" and descriptions such as "majority owner occupied" or "highly owner occupied." No qualifying owner-occupancy information was found, so the percentage is unknown.

Elevators
—
Low

I searched for explicit counts such as "4 elevators," "four elevators," or "multiple elevators." The remarks mention elevator access but do not provide a numeric count, so the number is unknown.

Association Fee Low
$499
High

Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee High
$1,349
High

Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee (Penthouse)
—
High

Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Fee Includes Central AC
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Cable
Yes
High

Cable inclusion is strongly supported across the building: 19 of 20 current listings include CABTV. Multiple remarks state that fees include “basic cable,” “internet and basic cable,” or “basic cable channels plus HBO and Disney+,” confirming this is a building-wide benefit rather than isolated copy-paste.

Fee Includes Common
Yes
High

Common-area expense inclusion is supported by 12 of 20 current MLS records and prior high-confidence evidence. A listing explicitly says, “Maintenance fees includes sewer, water, common area expenses and internet and cable are bundled,” providing direct confirmation from the remarks.

Fee Includes Coop Taxes
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Electricity
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Gas
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Hot Water
Yes
High

Hot water inclusion is strongly supported by current MLS data, with HOTWAT present in 13 of 20 listings and no WTRHTR indicators. Multiple remarks say the low maintenance fee “includes Internet, basic TV cable & hot water” or “includes hot water,” confirming the feature across multiple listings.

Fee Includes Internet
Yes
High

Internet inclusion is well supported: 15 of 20 current listings identify INTSER. Remarks repeatedly state “maintenance fee includes internet,” “internet and cable are bundled,” or that fees cover “water, sewer, internet, and cable,” indicating broad building-wide inclusion.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

Sewer inclusion is uniformly supported across the building, appearing in 20 of 20 current MLS records. Remarks directly state that maintenance fees include “sewer, water, common area expenses” and that low maintenance fees cover “water, sewer, internet, and cable.”

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

Water inclusion is uniformly supported, with WATER listed in 20 of 20 current records. Multiple remarks confirm that maintenance fees include “sewer, water” and that fees “cover water, sewer, internet, and cable,” providing consistent evidence across listings.

Bbq
Yes
High

BBQ facilities are overwhelmingly confirmed across the building. Many listings independently describe “BBQ areas,” “BBQ grills,” “barbecue stations,” and “BBQ pavilions,” making this a strong, repeated building-level amenity rather than an isolated copied remark.

Bike Storage
No

No analysis available

Boat Dock
No

No analysis available

Car Wash
No

No analysis available

Club House
Yes
High

Although the exact word “clubhouse” is less common, multiple listings identify shared clubhouse-equivalent spaces, including an “entertainment pavilion,” “outdoor pavilion,” “covered gazebo,” and “party pavilion.” These are recurring common amenities available for gatherings, supporting inclusion of the feature.

Concierge
No

No analysis available

Dog Park
No
High

There is no remark evidence that Kukui Plaza has a dog park or dedicated pet area. The isolated checkbox presence in 2 of 20 listings appears unsupported by agent remarks, and multiple listings mention "no pets" or "no pets allowed except service and emotional support animals," so the feature is excluded as likely checkbox error.

Doorman
No

No analysis available

Exercise Room
No

No analysis available

Limo Service
No

No analysis available

Meeting Room
Yes
High

Meeting facilities are directly confirmed in multiple listings, including references to a “meeting room area,” “meeting room (Diamond Head Tower),” “party/meeting room,” and “meeting rooms.” The repeated specific descriptions across listings support a true building-level amenity.

Patio Deck
Yes
High

Kukui Plaza clearly offers substantial shared patio/deck-style outdoor amenities across multiple listings and agents. Remarks repeatedly cite a “large recreation deck,” “expansive private garden deck,” “lush garden deck,” “2.6-acre private park,” and covered outdoor gathering areas, confirming this is a building-level feature rather than isolated unit copy.

Path Jogging
Yes
High

Walking and jogging paths are repeatedly described throughout the remarks, including “walking/jogging path,” “jogging path goes around the park,” “scenic walking path,” and “jogging paths.” The feature is clearly part of the extensive shared garden and recreation deck.

Playground
No

No analysis available

Private Yard
No

No analysis available

Putting Green
No

No analysis available

Recreation Area
Yes
High

The building consistently offers substantial recreation facilities, including a “large recreation deck,” “2.6-acre private park,” “covered recreation area,” and “recreation spaces.” Evidence appears across many listings and agents, strongly confirming the feature.

Recreation Room
Yes
Medium

Evidence for a true recreation room is limited but not absent. Several remarks mention a "meeting room," "party/meeting room," or "recreation w/kitchen," which may be the same shared space, but there are few explicit "recreation room" references and the MLS checkbox appears in only 1/20 listings. This looks like a possible mislabeled or loosely described amenity rather than a universally described feature.

Restaurant
No

No analysis available

Rooftop
No

No analysis available

Sauna
No

No analysis available

Storage Unit
Yes
Medium

Storage is supported weakly: 1 of 20 listings includes a storage-related amenity, while several remarks describe substantial in-unit storage or closets. No listing clearly confirms dedicated building storage lockers or separate storage units, so this appears to be an implied or possibly inconsistent MLS feature rather than strong building-wide evidence.

Surfboard Storage
No
Low

The remarks discuss assigned and secured parking, storage closets, community laundry, gardens, pools, and recreation areas. No dedicated surfboard or board-storage facility is identified.

Tennis Court
No

No analysis available

Trash Chute
Yes
High

Trash chutes are supported by 19 of 20 current MLS records, with an explicit listing noting that the unit is “adjacent to the elevators, trash chute.” Although fewer public remarks discuss this utility than the recreational amenities, the near-universal MLS presence and direct reference strongly confirm it.

Valet
No

No analysis available

Wall Fence
No

No analysis available

Whirlpool
No

No analysis available

Pool
Yes
High

The pool is strongly confirmed across the building: dozens of listings mention a swimming pool or pool amenities, including "swimming pool," "sparkling pool," "resort-style pool," and "large pool." The consistent references from many listings and the 19/20 current MLS amenity matches indicate this is a genuine shared building feature rather than isolated copy-paste data.

Pool Heated
Yes
High

A heated pool is explicitly mentioned in numerous remarks, including "heated pool," "heated swimming pool," and "large heated pool," across multiple listings. Although only 2 of 20 current MLS records carry the HEAPOO amenity and none mark HEATED in pool_features, the repeated detailed remarks and prior high-confidence evidence strongly support that the shared pool is heated.

Pool Salt
No
Low

The listings provide extensive evidence of multiple building pools and related amenities. Searches for salt water, saltwater, salt pool, and saline pool descriptions found no mentions, so the remarks do not support a saltwater pool.

Laundry In Unit
Yes
High

In-unit laundry is available in at least some Kukui Plaza units, with 8 of 20 current listings indicating washer/dryer inclusions and many remarks explicitly confirming it. Key examples include "in-unit washer and dryer," "WASHER AND DRYER IN UNIT," and "only the 2 bedroom units have a W/D in the unit"; this is supported across multiple listings and is not merely a single copied statement.

Community Laundry
Yes
High

Kukui Plaza clearly provides shared/community laundry facilities. Numerous listings explicitly state that community laundry is located on every floor, with some specifying two washers and two dryers per floor; other remarks describe laundry rooms or facilities on each floor. This strong, repeated evidence across many listings confirms the feature rather than indicating simple checkbox copy-paste.

Community Laundry Paid
Yes
High

The remarks identify the shared laundry as coin-operated, confirming that payment is required. Multiple listings also distinguish the coin-operated laundry from in-unit washers and dryers.

Community Laundry Every Floor
Yes
High

Numerous remarks explicitly confirm floor-by-floor community laundry facilities. Several listings also mention two washers and two dryers on each floor.

Parking
Yes
High

Parking is strongly validated across numerous independent listings, with well over 20 remarks explicitly mentioning assigned, covered, secured, or garage parking. Examples include "your covered parking stall," "one assigned parking stall," "covered parking in a gated parking garage," and "2 PARKING STALLS." The evidence is consistent with the historical high-confidence assessment and is not limited to apparent copy-paste language.

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

Assigned parking is strongly supported across many listings and agents, with well over a dozen remarks using phrases such as "assigned parking stall," "assigned covered parking," and "reserved parking stall." The repeated descriptions across different units, including covered and secured stalls, confirm this is a building-level offering rather than an isolated or copied claim.

Parking Covered
Yes
High

Well over 17 listings explicitly mention covered or garage parking, including "covered parking stall," "covered assigned parking," and "covered parking in a gated parking garage." The evidence is strong across many listings and agents, although some descriptions appear to reuse standard building language.

Parking Deeded
Yes
High

The remarks consistently describe assigned, secured, covered parking conveyed with many units. Several listings explicitly refer to fee-simple ownership or parking included with the property, supporting deeded or owned parking at the building level, although some individual listings exclude parking or reference separately purchased stalls.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
$1
Low

The remarks indicate that public or additional rentable parking may involve a charge. However, they do not state a specific recurring monthly parking fee for assigned resident parking.

Parking Guest
Yes
High

Guest parking is explicitly mentioned in several independent listings, including remarks stating "guest parking" and "plenty of guest parking." Although less frequently documented than assigned parking, the repeated direct references and current MLS support establish that the building offers guest parking.

Parking Secured Entry
Yes
High

Secured parking and/or secured building entry are confirmed across many listings from multiple agents. Key phrases include "gated parking," "secure parking & building entry," "secured garage," and "secured parking stall with direct entry to lobby," providing strong consistent evidence that this is a building-level feature.

Parking Tandem
No

No analysis available

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

The remarks frequently discuss assigned, covered, secured, guest, public, and rentable parking. No listing describes a building parking waitlist system, so there is no evidence confirming one.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

No analysis available

Security Card
No
Low

The building is consistently described as secure, with security guards or patrols, secured parking, and secured entry. However, no public remark confirms that access specifically uses cards, fobs, card readers, or keycards.

Security Guard
Yes
High

Security service is strongly validated across the building: 20/20 current listings include the SECGUA amenity, and many remarks explicitly describe 24-hour or 24/7 security, on-site security guards, and security patrol. The consistency across numerous listings and agents indicates a genuine building-level amenity rather than an isolated copy-paste error.

Security Patrol
Yes
High

Multiple remarks directly identify 24-hour security patrol service, including patrol with video. This is stronger than general references to security guards or a secure building.

Security Video
No

No analysis available

Central AC
No

No analysis available

Split AC
No

No analysis available

Window AC
Yes
High

At least 10 listings explicitly mention window or individual-unit air conditioning, including "window AC," "window AC unit," "new window AC units," and "two AC units." The evidence is strong across multiple listings and aligns with the current MLS data showing ACWIUN in 20 of 20 listings, so this is not likely to be copy-paste error.

Concrete
Yes
High

0 of 20 supplied listings explicitly mention “concrete” or “reinforced concrete” in the public remarks. However, all 20 of 20 current listings identify concrete construction materials, providing very strong and consistent MLS evidence across the building.

Double Wall
Yes
High

Six of 20 current listings identify DOUWAL in the construction materials, consistent with the previously high-confidence feature, though coverage is limited. No public remarks explicitly mention “double wall” or related wording, suggesting the evidence may reflect repeated MLS checkbox data rather than independently described construction.

Hollow Tile
No

No analysis available

Masonry/Stucco
Yes
High

0 of 20 supplied listings explicitly use the phrases “masonry,” “stucco,” or “masonry and stucco.” Nevertheless, 7 of 20 current listings identify MASSTU in MLS construction materials, and the feature has a prior high-confidence history, supporting continued inclusion despite the lack of remark confirmation.

Steel Frame
No
Low

Only 1 of 20 listings identifies STEFRA, and none of the supplied remarks mention a steel frame. The isolated checkbox entry is likely unverified copy-paste or an agent coding error rather than reliable building-wide evidence.

Slab
Yes
High

Two of 20 current listings code SLAB in the construction materials, and none of the reviewed remarks explicitly mention a concrete slab or solid concrete foundation. Despite limited current coding, the prior high-confidence determination supports retaining the building-level feature absent overwhelming evidence of a change.

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No

No analysis available

Above Ground
Yes
Medium

Three of 20 listings identify ABOGRO, while several remarks describe the high-rise building and elevated amenities, including "above ground gardens and pool" and recreation decks on upper levels. The evidence is moderately supportive but not uniformly coded or explicitly tied to the building's construction materials.

Brick
No
Medium

Zero of the provided listings mention brick construction or a brick exterior in their public remarks. Although 1 of 20 listings has BRICK checked in MLS data, the isolated designation lacks corroboration across other listings and appears likely to be copy-paste or an unverified checkbox.

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
No
Low

The remarks describe Kukui Plaza as a residential condominium and mention investors, tenants, and a potential vacation-home use, but do not explicitly permit short-term rentals. No STR approval, NUC, TVU, or legal vacation-rental language was found.

STR Hotel Pool
No
High

Kukui Plaza's pool references consistently concern ordinary resident amenities on the recreation deck. No hotel rental pool, hotel operations, Hilton/Trump/Ritz pool, or managed rental program is described, and the STR prerequisite is not satisfied.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
High

The listings contain no evidence that units must participate in a hotel rental program. Because no hotel rental pool is identified and STR is not established, mandatory pool participation is false.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
No

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
2048
High

The leasehold expiration year is explicitly identified as 2048 in multiple listings. Other remarks state that the sandwich lease has been paid off, cancelled, or will be paid off, but no later expiration year is provided.

Financing V A
Yes
High

The remarks provide repeated, direct building- and unit-level evidence of VA approval and VA financing availability. Examples include "VA approved," "VA ASSUMABLE with 1.875% interest rate," and "Possible VA assumable mortgage at 3.375%."

Insured Fully
Yes
High

The building's full insurance status is repeatedly and explicitly confirmed in public remarks. Additional remarks refer to hurricane insurance and a "fully insured" building, providing strong corroboration.

Fire Sprinklers
Yes
High

Fire sprinklers are supported primarily by MLS amenity data, appearing in 4 of 20 current listings, with prior analysis also assigning high confidence despite limited remark-level mentions. No current remarks explicitly mention sprinklers, fire suppression, or installation, so the evidence is adequate but not strongly corroborated by listing text.

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

I searched for references to FLSE approval, fire/life safety evaluation passage, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed fire inspections. None of these were mentioned in the remarks; the references to the building being fully insured or secured do not establish FLSE passage.

Flood Zone (Current)
X
High

Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Flood Zone (June 2026)
X

No analysis available

View: Ocean
Yes
High

Ocean views are strongly supported across multiple listings, with 7/20 current listings mentioning OCEAN. Key remarks include “beautiful ocean, mountain, and city views,” “panoramic ocean, harbor, and city views,” and “gorgeous ocean and harbor views,” indicating the building offers units with ocean views rather than a single isolated claim.

View: Mountain
Yes
High

Mountain views are strongly validated across the building. Numerous remarks explicitly cite phrases such as “mountain and city views,” “stunning mountains,” “majestic mountains,” “views of Punchbowl,” “mountain peaks,” and “Diamond Head views,” confirming this is not merely copied checkbox data.

View: Diamond Head
Yes
High

Diamond Head views are documented in several remarks, including “peekaboo views of Diamond Head,” “sweeping Diamond Head views,” and “faces towards Diamond Head.” The evidence is strongest for units in the Diamond Head Tower, but the feature is clearly offered in the building. Remarks vary by agent wording, which supports genuine building/unit variation rather than a single copied description.

View: City
Yes
High

City views are overwhelmingly supported across the listings. Remarks include “sweeping city views,” “sparkling glow of city lights,” “vibrant cityscape,” “panoramic city views,” “Honolulu skyline,” and “stunning city view,” with consistent confirmation from multiple agents.

View: Coastline
Yes
High

Coastline views are explicitly supported in a smaller set of listings. The clearest evidence is the remark describing “spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks along the coastline,” which directly confirms coastal exposure, and other remarks referencing ocean/harbor/coastal vistas. The MLS data is limited but aligned, with 3/20 listings flagging COASTL.

View: Garden
Yes
High

Garden-related views/features are clearly present in the building, though not in as many listings as city or mountain views. Current remarks repeatedly refer to 'garden deck,' 'lush garden courtyards,' 'landscaped gardens,' and even 'garden views,' supported by the MLS view tags in several units. This looks like a real and recurring building amenity/view context.

View: Golf Course
No

No analysis available

View: Marina
No

No analysis available

View: Sunrise
Yes
High

Sunrise views are less common than city or garden views, but they are explicitly mentioned in the current remarks. Examples include “spectacular sunrise view” and “from sunrise to sunset,” plus an east-facing unit with “gentle morning light,” giving strong enough evidence to include the feature.

View: Sunset
Yes
High

Sunset views are supported by 3/20 current listings, including the explicit phrases “stunning city, ocean, and sunset views” and “you’ll love the amazing sunset, ocean, mountain and city views.” Although less frequently mentioned than city or ocean views, the repeated explicit remarks establish that some units in the building offer sunset views.

View: Cemetery
No

No analysis available

Fireworks View
Yes
High

A listing directly associates the home's panoramic views with New Year's Eve fireworks along the coastline. This supports fireworks visibility from at least some units.

Pets Allowed
No

No analysis available

Resident Manager
Yes
High

Resident management is consistently supported across the building: 15 of 20 current listings include RESMAN, and several remarks explicitly state "resident manager," "on-site management," or "on-site manager." These mentions come from multiple listings and align with the previously high-confidence assessment, indicating a building-level feature rather than an isolated or copied claim.

Condotel
No

No analysis available

Coop
No

No analysis available

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.
