Makaha Beach Cabanas

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.

Floors
9
High

The county parcel records 9 floors, and MLS listings reach floor 9 with eight listings. The state registration's 5-floor field is set aside as unreliable.

Total Units
162
Medium

The state registration reports 162 units for this single-building registration, and the county dwell sum also reports 162. The county reconciled figure of 163 conflicts with these sources and is not preferred here.

Owner Occupancy
18%
Verified

Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 51. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.

Elevators
1
Low

Multiple listings confirm that the building has elevator service. No remark specifies one elevator, four elevators, or multiple elevators, so the current value of 1 is retained with low confidence. No evidence in remarks to confirm or deny the exact number.

Association Fee Low
$1,065
High

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

Association Fee High
$2,186
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
No
High

Across many listings for this building, agents describe maintenance fees covering items like water, sewer, and common area services, but never mention cable TV being included. With only 1/20 MLS records checking the cable box and zero textual confirmation, cable TV is very likely not part of the association fee.

Fee Includes Common
Yes
High

Common-area services are strongly supported across the building, with OTCOEX present in 16 of 20 current listings. One remark explicitly says the maintenance fee covers “common area services,” providing direct confirmation beyond checkbox data.

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
No
High

Hot water inclusion is not supported by the public remarks: no listing explicitly says hot water is included in the HOA fee. Multiple listings mention unit water heaters, including “an electric water heater,” “tankless water heater,” and “on-demand hot water heater,” while the single HOTWAT checkbox appears inconsistent with the broader evidence.

Fee Includes Internet
Yes
High

Internet inclusion is supported by both MLS data and remarks. Multiple listings state “internet, water, and sewer included in the HOA fee,” while another references free Wi-Fi throughout the complex, confirming that internet service is available as a building-level fee inclusion.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

Sewer inclusion is strongly confirmed across the building, with 19 of 20 listings checking SEWER. Several remarks explicitly quote “internet, water, and sewer included in the HOA fee,” and another states that the monthly maintenance fee covers sewer.

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

Water inclusion is consistently supported by every current MLS listing. Multiple remarks explicitly say “water included” or “internet, water, and sewer included in the HOA fee,” making this one of the strongest building-level fee features.

Bbq
Yes
High

BBQ facilities are mentioned across numerous listings, including a reservable BBQ area, Traeger smoker, Blackstone griddle, propane grills, BBQ lounge, and outdoor BBQ area. The evidence is strong across multiple remarks and is also consistently reflected in 19 of 20 current MLS records.

Bike Storage
No

No analysis available

Boat Dock
No

No analysis available

Car Wash
Yes
High

One listing explicitly confirms a "car wash station with vacuum" as part of the building amenities. The feature is less consistently documented than BBQ or trash chutes and may not appear in most copy-pasted remarks, but the detailed explicit reference supports that the building offers it.

Club House
No

Concierge

Dog Park

Doorman

Exercise Room

Limo Service

Meeting Room
No

No analysis available

Patio Deck
Yes
High

At least 20 listings mention a lanai or comparable outdoor space, with key phrases including 'relax on your palm-shaded lanai,' 'private lanai,' 'from your lanai,' and 'spacious lanai overlooking' the beach. The evidence is strong across numerous listings and agents, not merely a single copied remark, and is consistent with the building's established high historical confidence and current MLS amenity data.

Path Jogging
No
High

Across all provided remarks, there are no mentions of an on-site jogging or walking path, only off-site 'nature trails' and hiking in the surrounding area. With just 1/20 MLS entries checking this box and no descriptive support, it is very unlikely the building offers a dedicated jogging path.

Playground
No

No analysis available

Private Yard
No

No analysis available

Putting Green
No

No analysis available

Recreation Area
No
High

No listings explicitly identify a recreation area or equivalent amenity. Although 2/20 MLS records include RECARE, the lack of corroborating remarks suggests this may be an isolated or incorrect checkbox rather than a confirmed shared building feature.

Recreation Room
No

No analysis available

Restaurant
No

No analysis available

Rooftop
No

No analysis available

Sauna
No

No analysis available

Storage Unit
No

No analysis available

Surfboard Storage
Yes
High

The remarks directly confirm outdoor surfboard storage at the building. The listing notes that access may require an additional fee, but the storage facility itself is clearly documented.

Tennis Court
No

No analysis available

Trash Chute
Yes
High

A listing explicitly describes the building as having a "trash chute," and 17 of 20 current MLS records include TRACHU. Although most remarks do not discuss the system, the feature is consistently represented in the MLS data and confirmed by a direct building-amenity statement.

Valet
No

No analysis available

Wall Fence
No

No analysis available

Whirlpool
No

No analysis available

Pool
No
High

Across the provided remarks, there are zero explicit mentions of a pool, lap pool, plunge pool, heated pool, or resort pool. The only current evidence is a weak MLS amenity indicator in 1 of 20 listings, while the remarks focus on beach access, BBQ areas, security, and renovations instead. This pattern suggests the pool checkbox is likely inaccurate rather than a verified building feature.

Pool Heated
No

No analysis available

Pool Salt
No
Low

The remarks discuss beach access, ocean swimming, and coastal amenities but do not mention a building swimming pool or salt-water pool. No evidence supports this feature.

Laundry In Unit
No

No analysis available

Community Laundry
Yes
High

Community laundry is strongly supported by both MLS data and multiple listing remarks: 18 of 20 listings indicate COMLAU, and at least three remarks explicitly reference a shared laundry room or laundry facilities. One listing directly states that the building offers "community laundry," confirming this is a building-level amenity rather than an in-unit feature.

Community Laundry Paid
No
Low

The remarks refer to community laundry and a laundry room but provide no evidence that use requires payment. No qualifying payment terms were found.

Community Laundry Every Floor
No
Low

The remarks mention a laundry room and community laundry, but do not state that laundry facilities are available on every floor. Because the required floor-by-floor detail is absent, this feature is not supported.

Parking
Yes
High

Parking is strongly confirmed across the building, with 20/20 current listings reporting a parking feature and 0/20 marked NONE. At least five remarks explicitly reference assigned, deeded, open/unassigned, or guest parking, providing confirmation beyond potentially copied MLS checkboxes.

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

Assigned parking is supported for at least one unit by the explicit phrase '1 deeded parking,' along with one current MLS ASSIGN designation. Other listings mention 'open, unassigned' parking, indicating parking types vary by unit rather than disproving the existence of assigned spaces.

Parking Covered
No

No analysis available

Parking Deeded
Yes
High

The remarks contain direct evidence of deeded parking in at least one building listing. Other listings mention unassigned, guest, or unspecified parking, so parking details may vary by unit.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
—
Low

The remarks were searched for parking fees, monthly parking charges, additional parking costs, and parking rental language. None was found; some listings instead describe parking as included or deeded.

Parking Guest
Yes
High

Guest parking is supported by both checkbox data and explicit remarks: 10 of 20 current listings include GUEST parking. Multiple listings specifically state "guest parking" or "plenty of guest parking," providing strong confirmation beyond potentially copied MLS fields.

Parking Secured Entry
Yes
High

Secured-entry parking/access is strongly supported by both current MLS data and recurring remarks. Multiple listings describe the building as gated or secured, and newer remarks add details such as facial and license plate recognition, making this feature highly credible.

Parking Tandem
No

No analysis available

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

The remarks were searched for parking waitlist and waiting-list language. No such information was found, although listings mention deeded, guest, open, or unassigned parking.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

No analysis available

Security Card
Yes
High

Multiple listings document key-fob access and newer facial and license plate recognition systems. The explicit key-fob reference strongly supports card/fob-based building access.

Security Guard
Yes
High

At least 7 current listings explicitly mention building security service, using phrases such as "24-hour security," "24/7 security," "security patrol," and "new 24 hour security and onsite management." The evidence is strong across multiple remarks and aligns with the historical high-confidence record and current MLS data showing SECGUA in 19/20 listings.

Security Patrol
Yes
High

The remarks directly identify security patrol service and repeatedly confirm around-the-clock security. This is consistent with the building context indicating active security operations.

Security Video
No

No analysis available

Central AC
No

No analysis available

Split AC
No

No analysis available

Window AC
Yes
Medium

Evidence supports window air conditioning in at least some units in the building. The clearest public remark says the unit has an "AC unit in bedroom," and the current MLS data has ACWIUN included in 8 of 20 recent listings. Most other remarks do not mention AC, which suggests the checkbox may be inconsistently copied rather than universally described, but the available evidence is enough to include the feature.

Concrete
Yes
High

The building is identified as concrete in 17 of 20 current MLS listings, with strong consistency across the listing history. Remarks repeatedly mention building-wide spalling repairs and exterior work, supporting concrete construction, although agents generally do not state the material explicitly in narrative remarks.

Double Wall
Yes
Medium

DOUWAL is recorded in 8 of 20 listings, supporting double-wall construction through recurring MLS construction-material data. No current public remarks explicitly mention double-wall construction, so the evidence appears to rely on MLS checkbox data rather than independent agent descriptions.

Hollow Tile
Yes
Low

Hollow tile appears in a minority of the MLS history, with 4/20 listings tagged HOLTIL. Because the public remarks do not describe hollow tile construction and instead emphasize renovations and building upgrades, this looks like tentative MLS evidence rather than well-confirmed building documentation.

Masonry/Stucco
No

No analysis available

Steel Frame
No

No analysis available

Slab
No
Low

No public remarks reference a concrete slab foundation or similar wording. Because the MLS checkbox still appears on 6/20 listings, but the historical confidence was low and the remarks are silent, the evidence is weak and likely reflects copy-paste MLS data rather than verified building construction.

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No

No analysis available

Above Ground
Yes
Medium

The remarks repeatedly describe the property as a multi-story beachfront tower with 5th-, 7th-, 9th-, and top-floor units served by elevators. That pattern supports an above-ground building classification, though the evidence is mostly implied rather than explicitly stated. This is a moderate-confidence feature rather than a direct textual confirmation.

Brick
No

No analysis available

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
No
Low

Marketing language references vacation use and investment potential, but this does not establish legal short-term-rental permission. No explicit STR, TVU, NUC, vacation-rental approval, or rental-duration authorization was found.

STR Hotel Pool
No
High

The remarks were searched for hotel rental pool, hotel rental program, Hilton, Trump, Ritz, or hotel-management language. None was found; because STR permission is not established, this feature is false.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
High

The remarks contain no statement that owners must participate in a hotel rental pool or rental program. Since STR permission is not established, mandatory pool participation is false.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
Yes

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
—
High

Multiple listings identify Makaha Beach Cabanas as fee simple, making a leasehold expiry generally inapplicable. No ground lease, leasehold expiration, or renewal year was mentioned.

Financing V A
No
Low

The remarks were searched for explicit VA-related language such as "VA approved," "VA financing," or "VA loans accepted." None was found, so VA approval cannot be confirmed.

Insured Fully
No
Low

The remarks were searched for explicit building or HOA insurance language, including fully insured, full insurance, comprehensive building insurance, and walls-in coverage. No qualifying statement was found. The feature is therefore reported as false with low-to-medium confidence.

Fire Sprinklers
No

No analysis available

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

The remarks were searched for explicit fire/life safety evaluation and inspection language, including FLSE and fire safety certification. No supporting statement was found. Because there is no current true value and no explicit confirmation, the feature is reported as false with low-to-medium confidence.

Flood Zone (Current)
VE
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)
VE

No analysis available

View: Ocean
Yes
High

Ocean views are consistently confirmed across all 20 listings, including phrases such as "panoramic ocean views," "unobstructed, sweeping views of the Pacific," "oceanfront living," and "breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean." The evidence is strong across numerous listings and agents, although some descriptions use recurring marketing language.

View: Mountain
Yes
High

Mountain views are mentioned in 15 of 20 current listings, including references to the "Wai'anae mountain range," "Mount Lahilahi," and "sweeping unobstructed views of the ... mountain range." Multiple detailed listings identify mountain views from particular units, strongly supporting that the building offers them.

View: Diamond Head
No

No analysis available

View: City
No

No analysis available

View: Coastline
Yes
High

Coastline views are well supported by 15 current MLS listings and multiple detailed remarks. Examples include "expansive coastline... views," "forever views of coastline, ocean, and sunset," "scenic Waianae Coast," and "stunning coastal views," confirming that coastline-view units are available.

View: Garden
No

No analysis available

View: Golf Course
No

No analysis available

View: Marina
No

No analysis available

View: Sunrise
Yes
High

Sunrise evidence is limited but explicit: one listing directly advertises "mountain/sunrise views from the living room," and the MLS data contains SUNRIS in 2 of 20 listings. The feature should be included for buyers because at least some units appear to offer sunrise exposure, despite weaker prevalence than the other views.

View: Sunset
Yes
High

Sunset views are confirmed in 17 of 20 listings through phrases including "breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific," "gorgeous Hawaiian sunsets," "golden sunsets," "daily Hawaiian sunsets," and "west coast sunsets." The repeated explicit mentions across multiple listings support retaining this building-level feature, despite some likely copy-pasted wording.

View: Cemetery
No

No analysis available

Fireworks View
No
Low

The listings repeatedly describe ocean views, sunsets, whales, dolphins, and other coastal scenery. They do not state that fireworks can be viewed from the units or building.

Frontage Type
Ocean

No analysis available

Pets Allowed
No

No analysis available

Resident Manager
Yes
High

The building is consistently identified as having a resident manager: 17 of 20 current listings select RESMAN. Remarks explicitly state “on-site resident manager” and “onsite management,” providing confirmation from multiple listings rather than relying solely on potentially copied MLS checkbox data.

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.
