Lanikea at Waikiki

Both MLS data (20/20 listings) and multiple remarks ('Luxury & comfortable condo built in 2005', 'Constructed in 2005', 'Built in 2005') consistently indicate the building was completed in 2005. There are no conflicting dates mentioned, giving very high confidence in 2005 as the construction year.

MLS property data for this building shows unit floors as high as 31 (with numerous high-floor and penthouse listings), and no remarks indicate floors above that level. Although one remark mentions 'only 4 residences/floor' without a total floor count, the highest observed floor number strongly suggests a 31-story building. Taken together, the evidence supports 31 floors with good confidence.

A listing description notes that there are 'only 4 residences/floor and 100 in the entire building,' providing a clear total unit count. No other remarks contradict this figure, so 100 units is adopted as the building total.

I searched for explicit percentages like "80% owner occupied" or descriptive phrases such as "majority owner occupied" or "highly owner occupied," but found nothing. Since the current value already exists and there is no contradictory remark, 63.00 is kept with low confidence.

I looked for phrases like "2 elevators," "4 elevators," or "multiple elevators," but the public remarks do not give an elevator count. The building context already provides 2, and nothing in the remarks contradicts that, so the current value is retained with low confidence.

Multiple listings and remarks explicitly mention 'central AC' or 'central air' (e.g., 'Luxury condo... with central AC', 'Rare... Luxury furnished with central AC'), and 6 of 20 current MLS entries have ACCEN checked. Evidence is consistent across different agent remarks and aligns with prior high confidence that units/building provide central air.

Cable TV appears to be included in the association fee for this building based on 15 of 20 current MLS listings marking CABTV. The public remarks are silent on cable, so this is driven primarily by the MLS checkbox pattern rather than listing text.

Common area electricity is supported by the MLS pattern, with 11 of 20 listings marking OTCOEX. The remarks emphasize building-managed amenities such as security, lobby, pool, and BBQ areas, which aligns with shared operating costs being covered.

All remarks describe Lanikea at Waikiki as a condominium built in 2005, and there is no mention of any co‑op structure or co‑op tax. With no MLS indication of COOTAX, cooperative taxes are not part of the maintenance fees.

Across all provided remarks, utilities included are never highlighted as a selling point, and electric service is not checked as included in any recent MLS data. This strongly indicates that individual units are billed for their own electricity outside the HOA dues.

There is no mention of gas appliances, gas lines, or gas utilities in either remarks or MLS fee‑includes fields. Given that no listing flags gas as included, gas is almost certainly not an HOA‑covered utility here.

Hot water should be treated as not included for this building. The current MLS pattern is weak for HOTWAT and much stronger for WTRHTR, and the public remarks do not mention any building-supplied hot water service.

Internet inclusion is supported by 12 of 20 current MLS listings marking INTSER. The remarks do not explicitly confirm internet, but the checkbox pattern is strong enough to include it as a building feature available to some or many units.

Lanikea at Waikiki is presented purely as a luxury residential tower in central Waikiki, not a waterfront marina property. With no MLS or narrative reference to a marina, marina fees or access are not part of the HOA dues.

Sewer is effectively universal in the current MLS data, with 19 of 20 listings checking SEWER. The remarks do not contradict this, and the checkbox pattern is strong enough to treat sewer as included.

Water is included across all current MLS listings, with 20 of 20 checking WATER. This is the strongest possible building-level evidence, and the public remarks do not suggest otherwise.

BBQ facilities are strongly confirmed across the building. Public remarks mention it in many listings, often with consistent phrasing like "BBQ area," "gas BBQs," and "barbecue area," suggesting this is a real shared amenity rather than a copy-paste error.

No listings (0/20) mark bike storage in the MLS amenities, and none of the many detailed remarks mention a bike room, bicycle storage, or bike racks, despite extensively listing other amenities like pool, jacuzzi, BBQ, EV charging, car wash, dog area, guest parking, and storage lockers. This consistent omission across agents and listings indicates that Lanikea at Waikiki does not provide dedicated bicycle storage as a building amenity.

Units are promoted for proximity to Waikiki Beach, Fort DeRussy Park, and urban amenities rather than boat mooring or marina facilities. The total lack of mention of docks or slips strongly supports that there is no boat dock associated with the building.

Moderate evidence: MLS checkboxes include car wash on multiple listings (8/20) and the public remarks include a specific phrase "car wash space." Mentions are not ubiquitous across all agent remarks, but present enough to include the amenity as available to some residents.

While the building has a lobby and landscaped resort-style grounds, agents do not describe any dedicated clubhouse or community center. The consistent omission in detailed amenity lists and 0/20 MLS entries indicates there is no clubhouse facility.

While one listing mentions a 'welcoming lobby with friendly staff', none explicitly describe concierge or front-desk services, and this is not supported in any MLS amenity data. The overall evidence points to security staff but not a dedicated concierge service.

Moderate evidence: MLS has dog-park checked in 3/20 listings and one listing's remarks explicitly reference a "dog area"; several other remarks note the building is pet-friendly. Evidence suggests a shared dog area exists, but mentions are limited across listings so confidence is implied rather than definitive.

Listings consistently highlight 24-hour security but never mention a doorman or lobby attendant, which agents typically promote when present. Given the complete absence of such references and MLS omitting the doorman amenity, a staffed doorman service is very unlikely.

Across all remarks, amenities are consistently described as pool, spa/jacuzzi, BBQ areas, landscaped grounds, EV charging, dog area, and car wash, with no reference to any fitness or exercise facility. Combined with 0/20 MLS checkbox entries, this strongly indicates there is no building exercise room.

Although positioned as a luxury boutique building, marketing focuses on physical amenities (pool, spa, BBQ, security, parking) and location, not services like limousine or house car service. The complete lack of references makes it very likely no limo or courtesy car service is provided.

Descriptions focus on residential features and outdoor amenities, without any reference to community or board rooms. The absence in both MLS and remarks strongly suggests the building does not offer a shared meeting room.

Building-level outdoor spaces are well-documented: roughly 17 of the recent listing remarks explicitly mention a lanai/covered lanai (quotes include 'private lanai', 'covered lanai', and 'large lanai'). Multiple different listings and agents describe the unit having a lanai or balcony and the building amenities consistently reference pool/BBQ areas with outdoor lounge space — evidence is strong and consistent across many listings rather than a single copy-paste error.

Agents market walkability to nearby Waikiki attractions and outdoor spaces but do not describe any dedicated jogging or walking paths within the project itself. With 0/20 MLS entries and no textual indication, the building appears not to offer an internal jogging path.

Outdoor features are consistently described as pool, spa/jacuzzi, BBQ areas, lawns, and landscaped gardens, without any reference to play structures or children's playgrounds. This sustained omission across many listings suggests there is no playground amenity.

No listing remarks (0 out of 20) describe a private or fenced yard—remarks repeatedly reference shared grounds: "lush landscaping," "BBQ park," "pool," and a building "dog area." The PRIYAR checkbox appears in 2/20 current listings but without any supporting text; given prior high-confidence analysis that outdoors are shared, the evidence indicates the building does not offer private yard space. The 2 checkbox instances likely reflect agent copy/paste errors rather than a real change.

Although some units have views toward the Ala Wai Golf Course, no listing claims an on-site putting green or golf facility. The total absence in both checkbox data and narrative remarks makes it very likely that the building does not have a putting green.

Evidence for a recreation area is moderate rather than explicit. Multiple remarks describe shared amenity spaces with picnic seating, lawn areas, and outdoor lounging, which supports a building-level recreation space even though the exact phrase "recreation area" is uncommon.

Agents highlight lobby, pool/spa, BBQ areas, lawns, and parking/storage, but never mention an interior recreation or game room. With 0/20 MLS checkboxes, this strongly suggests there is no shared recreation room.

Multiple remarks highlight that the building is 'close to shops, restaurants, activities' and 'near-endless options for dining' in the surrounding area, but none state an in-building restaurant or café. This pattern strongly indicates there is no restaurant within the condominium complex.

Agents emphasize views from private lanais but attribute amenities to the 'resort-like pool and spa, BBQ, and lawn' at ground level. With 0/20 rooftop amenity checkboxes and no textual references, the building appears not to have shared rooftop amenities.

While listings emphasize a jacuzzi/whirlpool and resort-style pool, none add a sauna or steam room to the list of amenities. This consistent omission in detailed amenity descriptions indicates the building does not have a sauna.

Building-level and unit-level storage is supported by MLS checkbox data (12/20 listings list storage in amenities; 4/20 list storage in unit features) and by multiple public remarks. At least six separate listings explicitly state storage-related items—phrases include "storage in the secured garage," "large storage unit," "storage for luggage and files," and "storage lockers above the...parking stalls"—showing consistent, cross-agent confirmation that storage/lockers are available.

I looked for surfboard storage, surf storage, board storage, or bike-and-surfboard storage and found nothing. The remarks mention general storage and storage lockers, but not surfboard-specific facilities.

Amenities are repeatedly outlined (pool, spa/jacuzzi, BBQ areas, lawns, dog area, car wash, EV charging), but tennis courts are never mentioned. Given the complete absence in both MLS checkboxes and remarks, the building very likely has no tennis court.

Trash chute appears to be a consistent building feature based on MLS data, with 19 of 20 current listings checked. Public remarks do not usually call it out, but the strong checkbox pattern and prior high-confidence history support including it.

Listings repeatedly highlight “2 covered parking stalls,” “secured garage,” “guest parking,” and EV charging, but never refer to valet service. The combination of self-parking descriptions and the complete absence of valet terminology makes it very likely that valet is not offered in this building.

One listing calls the property a 'fully gated compound' with 'gated guest parking', and another notes 'gated entry to the building and parking', indicating a controlled, fenced/gated perimeter. MLS amenities partially reflect this, supporting that the property is enclosed by gates or walls.

Whirlpool/hot tub amenities are very well supported. Several listings explicitly reference "hot tub," "jacuzzi," "whirlpool," or "spa," and the MLS checkbox is also frequently selected, making this a strong building feature.

Strong, consistent evidence the building has a shared swimming pool. Multiple remarks mention a "pool," "swimming pool," "resort style amenities include a pool," and "extra-large swimming pool area," across many different listings/agents, which looks like genuine building-level amenity data rather than a one-off copy-paste.

There is solid evidence that the building's pool is heated. Several remarks explicitly say "heated pool," including phrases like "resort like heated pool and jacuzzi," "amenities include heated pool," and "beautiful lush grounds w/heated pool," appearing across multiple listings and not just a single agent remark.

I looked for salt water pool, saltwater pool, saline pool, or similar terms and found none. The pool is described as heated, resort-style, or landscaped, but its water type is not specified.

Strong building-level evidence supports in-unit laundry at Lanikea at Waikiki. Across the remarks, several listings explicitly mention washer/dryer in the unit, including phrases like "washer and dryer in 2022," "full-size stackable washer and dryer," and "washer/dryer," which aligns with the current MLS inclusions showing washer/dryer in all current listings. This appears to be consistent across multiple listings rather than a one-off agent copy-paste error.

Across all provided listings, there are no mentions of a shared laundry room, coin laundry, or community laundry facilities. Instead, the focus is on in-unit washer/dryer, and MLS amenities data shows 0/20 listings with community laundry checked, so this building should not be represented as having community laundry.

I looked for coin-op, card-operated, quarters, laundry fee, or other paid-laundry wording and found nothing. The listings do not describe any community laundry system or payment requirement.

I searched for language like "laundry on every floor," "floor laundry room," and "community laundry" and found none. The remarks only mention in-unit washer/dryer or storage, not shared laundry facilities on each floor.

Every listing in the current MLS set indicates parking, and multiple remarks reference '2 parking stalls' or 'two parking spaces' per unit. This is consistent across different stacks and penthouses, confirming that the building provides on-site parking for residents.

Strong evidence that parking is assigned/reserved. Multiple listings explicitly mention dedicated or assigned stalls, including quotes such as "2 dedicated parking spaces," "2 assigned covered parking spaces," and "Parking Stall 447 and 448." The pattern appears consistent across many agents and is reinforced by the high historical MLS checkbox rate.

Overwhelming evidence supports covered parking. Every historical listing is marked for covered/garage parking, and current remarks explicitly mention "2 covered and secured parking spaces," "secured garage," and parking stalls in the garage. This is consistent across listings and not just copy-paste checkbox noise.

I searched for explicit deeded-parking language such as "deeded parking," "owned stall," or "parking included in deed." The remarks consistently mention included, assigned, or dedicated stalls, but that is not the same as confirming deeded ownership, so I cannot mark it true.

One listing notes a 'fully gated compound' that includes 'EV charging, car wash space', and another says 'With EV charging station'. These explicit, detailed remarks by different agents provide strong evidence that the building has EV charging despite the unchecked MLS box.

I looked for any reference to a separate monthly parking fee or parking rental cost. The remarks repeatedly say the unit includes two parking stalls or spaces, but they do not mention any fee, so the parking cost remains unknown.

Guest parking is clearly available at the building. Multiple remarks explicitly call it out, with phrases like "12 guest parking spaces," "easy access gated guest parking," and "rare, plentiful guest parking." The current remarks align with the high MLS checkbox rate and reinforce that this is a real building feature.

Secure entry/secured parking is strongly supported. Several listings mention "gated entry to the building and parking," "gated, secured private residence," "secured garage," and "24-hour security," which together indicate controlled access. The combination of MLS checkboxes and explicit remarks makes this feature highly reliable.

Where configuration is mentioned, agents describe 'standard' and 'side-by-side' parking stalls, which contrasts with tandem layouts. With zero MLS tandem flags and no remarks suggesting tandem, it is very likely the building does not offer tandem parking stalls.

Amenities are consistently described as self-park with assigned and guest stalls, not valet service. The complete absence of any 'valet' or 'attended parking' language in remarks or MLS fields indicates the building does not provide valet parking.

I searched for "parking waitlist," "waiting list," or instructions to join a list for parking. There were no such references, and the remarks suggest parking is available with the unit, so there is no evidence of a waitlist system.

A remark notes that there are 'floor-specific elevator FOBs', which is explicit evidence of keyed/fob elevator security. Even though MLS ELEVAT is 0/20, the specific description of floor-restricted elevator access is strong proof this feature exists.

The listings strongly support a card/fob access security system. References to FOB-controlled elevator access and secure/gated entry indicate electronic access control for the building.

Security guard/service is strongly supported across the listing set: many remarks explicitly mention "24-hour security," "24-7 security," or "round the clock security." This appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste, and it aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS amenity data (SECGUA in 18 of 20 listings).

I searched for security patrol, roving security, patrolled building, or similar wording and found no explicit mention. The remarks do mention 24-hour security, gated entry, and secure access, but not patrol service.

Across all provided remarks, there are no references to security cameras or video surveillance, even though security is otherwise heavily marketed. With MLS also consistently omitting SECSYS, it is very likely the building does not have a distinct video security system as a marketed amenity.

Central air conditioning is confirmed by both historical MLS data and current remarks. At least 2 listings explicitly mention "central AC" / "quiet central AC," while another mentions an "Aircon unit" change, suggesting the building has a central building-wide system rather than copy-paste checkbox noise. Overall evidence is strong and consistent across multiple remarks.

Across all the remarks, there are no references to split, mini-split, or ductless AC, while central AC is repeatedly highlighted instead. MLS data also shows 0/20 listings checking the split AC inclusion code, suggesting agents do not recognize split systems as a feature here. This consistent absence strongly indicates that split AC systems are not present in this building’s units.

Listings emphasize central AC and never mention window or wall-mounted AC units, even in detailed renovation and feature descriptions. MLS checkbox data likewise shows no window AC inclusions across 20 listings. This consistent lack of any reference supports the conclusion that window AC units are not a feature of this building.

All available MLS listings indicate concrete construction, giving this feature very strong support. Public remarks do not explicitly say "concrete," but the unanimous checklist data across 20 listings makes this highly reliable.

8 of 20 recent MLS listings list double-wall construction (DOUWAL), but none of the public remarks mention double-wall construction and reporting is inconsistent across listings. Previously flagged with high confidence, the evidence is now mixed—some MLS records include it, but it's not corroborated in agent remarks.

Hollow tile construction is never mentioned, and no listing checks the hollow tile box in MLS. For a 2005 luxury high-rise, hollow tile as a primary construction type is improbable.

Masonry/stucco is supported by the MLS checklist data and aligns with the building’s commonly reported exterior system. Although remarks do not spell out the material, there is no evidence of a change or correction needed.

Steel frame appears in a minority of current MLS records (8 of 20), but none of the remarks explicitly confirm it. Because real estate remarks here repeatedly focus on views, amenities, and interior updates rather than structure, the evidence is only moderate.

A small number of listings flag slab construction, and nothing in the remarks contradicts a slab foundation. Considering standard practice for high-rise towers of this era, it is reasonably likely the building is constructed on a concrete slab foundation despite under-reporting in MLS checkboxes.

No analysis available

No listing indicates wood frame construction in the MLS data, and remarks consistently describe a modern high-rise concrete-style luxury building. Given the building type and age, wood frame construction can be confidently ruled out.

Only 3 of 20 recent MLS records indicate 'above ground' construction, while none of the public remarks refer to a raised/post-and-pier or above-ground structural style. Given the consistent depiction of a 2005 concrete luxury tower and the lack of any textual confirmation, the above-ground flag appears to be erroneous and is not supported by the listing remarks.

No MLS record indicates brick construction and there are no references to brick in the public remarks. The building is described instead as a tropical/Hawaiian-themed luxury tower, making brick construction very unlikely.

No listings mark or mention single wall construction, and the building’s age and type make this construction method effectively impossible here. This feature can be confidently excluded for this property.

This is direct evidence that short-term rentals are allowed at a 30-day minimum, which qualifies as STR allowed under the provided definition. The remark is explicit and comes from the public listing text.

I searched for language about a hotel rental pool, hotel-managed rental program, or branded pool participation and found nothing. Since there is no public evidence of such a program, this should be treated as false.

I looked for wording such as "mandatory pool," "required to participate," or "cannot opt out" and found none. There is also no evidence of any hotel rental pool program, so mandatory participation is not supported.

Across all supplied public remarks, there are no mentions of 'fee simple' ownership or equivalent phrases, and the land_tenure summary does not show any FS flags. Because of this lack of evidence, the existence of fee simple units in this building cannot be confirmed and is treated as not established.

None of the listing remarks refer to 'leasehold', land leases, lease rent, or lease expiry dates, and the land_tenure summary does not show any LH entries. In the absence of any explicit leasehold evidence, the presence of leasehold units in this building remains unconfirmed.

I looked for leasehold indicators such as "lease expires," "ground lease," "leasehold," and any renewal or extension language. Nothing in the remarks references land tenure or a lease expiry year, so there is no basis to extract a date.

I searched the remarks specifically for VA-loan approval language and found none. The listings describe amenities, views, and parking, but do not mention VA financing eligibility, so this is best treated as not supported by the available remarks.

I looked for insurance-related wording that would indicate the HOA provides full or walls-in coverage, but none appeared in the remarks. Because there is no current value and no supporting text, this feature is treated as not evidenced in the listings.

Historical MLS checkbox data indicates 9 of 20 listings list FIRSPR and prior historical confidence was High. Current remarks in at least one listing explicitly state "Worry Free Fire Sprinkler System Installed throughout Building," corroborating the checkbox data. Evidence is consistent across multiple listings and reinforced by explicit agent remarks, supporting a high-confidence inclusion of this building-level feature.

I searched for explicit language such as FLSE passed, fire/life safety evaluation passed, fire safety certified, or passed fire inspection, but found no direct confirmation. The sprinkler-system mention suggests fire protection features, but it does not verify a passed evaluation, so this remains unconfirmed and is marked false.

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 Lanikea at Waikiki. Multiple listings and unit remarks explicitly mention "sweeping ocean views," "Pacific Ocean," "ocean/coastline views," and "ocean view," indicating this is a real and commonly advertised building feature rather than a copy-paste checkbox error.

Mountain views are regularly noted with 7 of 20 current listings describing mountain or Ko'olau views. Phrases such as "mountain view," "green Ko'olau Mountains," and "views of ocean and mountain" appear across multiple listings, supporting inclusion.

Although the public remarks rarely spell out 'Diamond Head view,' multiple MLS entries explicitly mark Diamond Head as a view. The reference to units on the 'Diamond Head(East) side' further supports that some stacks enjoy Diamond Head views, making this a reasonable building-level feature.

City views are clearly established for this building. Several listings explicitly mention "city views," "city lights," and "Honolulu cityscape," and the current MLS pattern shows CITY in 18 of 20 listings, which is consistent with widespread availability across units.

High-floor corner units are described as having 'unobstructed ocean/coastline' views, indicating a clear view of the shoreline, not just open water. Together with multiple MLS agents selecting COASTLINE, this confirms that coastline views are available in the building.

Several descriptions emphasize greenery and landscaped vistas, including views over Ft. DeRussy’s park-like grounds and the building’s own lush gardens. Even though only one MLS record checks GARDEN, the narrative evidence shows that garden/park-style views are a real feature for certain units.

At least one unit clearly overlooks the Ala Wai Golf Course, and multiple MLS entries corroborate golf course views. This indicates that golf course views are available from some units in the building.

Direct 'marina' or 'harbor' views are not emphasized in the narrative remarks, but several MLS agents have selected the marina/canal view option. Given the location near the Ala Wai Canal and repeated MLS coding, it is likely that some units enjoy canal or related marina views.

Sunrise/morning views are noted in a smaller subset (3 of 20) but explicitly mentioned with terms like "morning sunlight" and references to the Diamond Head (east) side and enjoying morning coffee on the lanai. Evidence is consistent enough across listings to include the feature.

Sunset views are confirmed by multiple remarks and are not just implied by western exposure. Listings directly reference "stunning sunsets," "beautiful sunset from your balcony," and "enjoy sunset," showing that sunset-facing views are a marketed feature in this building.

All marketing materials focus on ocean, park, city, mountain, and golf course views, with no indication of a cemetery nearby or in the sightline. Given the consistent absence of cemetery references and MLS checks, it is highly unlikely that any units have cemetery views.

Multiple remarks clearly state that residents can see Friday night fireworks from the unit/building. This is direct evidence of a fireworks view, not merely proximity to fireworks.

No analysis available

At least 4 of 20 listings clearly describe the building as pet friendly and one specifies it allows “2 Cats / Dogs or Other Household Pets,” with another noting a “dog area” on the grounds. The consistent, explicit pet-friendly language from different agents confirms that pets (cats and dogs) are allowed in this building.

Evidence strongly supports a resident/on-site manager at Lanikea at Waikiki. The current MLS data shows RESMAN in 13 of 20 listings, and multiple remarks describe the building as having 'an onsite manager' or similar management presence, indicating this is not just a copy-paste checkbox. This appears to be a consistent building amenity rather than a mistaken agent entry.

The building is consistently marketed as a residential luxury condo, not as a hotel or condo-hotel, and the only rental-related reference is to a 30-day minimum. With no mention of hotel operations, rental pools, or front-desk management in any of the 20 listings, it is very unlikely that this is a condotel property.

All 20 listings describe Lanikea at Waikiki as a condominium, and none use “co-op,” “cooperative,” or share-based ownership language. Combined with the absence of any COOTAX flags in MLS data, this supports that the building is not a cooperative.
