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.

No public remarks explicitly mention cable TV or cable service in the HOA. However, 16 of 20 current listings identify CABTV as included, a strong repeated MLS pattern across listings that supports inclusion.
No public remarks directly state that common-area electricity is included. The feature is nevertheless strongly supported by 17 of 20 current listings marking OTCOEX, indicating a consistent building-level MLS pattern rather than an isolated entry.

No public remarks mention hot water being included. The MLS evidence strongly contradicts inclusion: HOTWAT appears in only 1 of 20 listings, while WTRHTR appears in 12 of 20, making this a well-supported correction to false.
No public remarks mention internet, Wi-Fi, or internet service in the HOA fees. INTSER appears in only 8 of 20 listings, a minority pattern that is weaker than the other fee-inclusion features and likely reflects inconsistent or copied MLS entries.
Marina inclusion is strongly evidenced by the public remarks and supported by the MLS pattern (10 of 20 listings mark MARINA). Multiple listings describe a 'private marina community,' 'marina access,' 'boat slip usage,' and direct access to Kaneohe Bay, making this a clear building-level feature.
No public remarks explicitly discuss sewer charges. However, 18 of 20 current listings mark SEWER in the association fee inclusions, providing strong, repeated evidence across the building.
No public remarks explicitly state that water is included in the HOA fees. The MLS pattern is nevertheless very strong, with WATER marked in 18 of 20 listings, supporting building-level inclusion.
BBQ facilities are strongly supported by both MLS data and listing remarks. At least 3 listings explicitly mention grilling facilities, including "grilling spaces" and a "grilling area," while 19 of 20 current listings have the BBQ amenity checked.

There is no remark-level support for a car-wash amenity at Makani Kai Marina. Although some MLS entries have the checkbox enabled (9/20), the remarks do not describe any car wash, auto wash, or wash station, suggesting the checkbox is likely copied or inaccurate.
The building clearly has clubhouse or community-center access. At least 5 listings explicitly mention a "clubhouse," "Makani Kai Yacht Club," or clubhouse access, and the amenity is checked in all 20 current listings.

There is moderate evidence for a meeting-room-type amenity, primarily through the 11/20 MLS listings marked MEEROO and remarks describing a recreation room, nautical recreation room, and common areas for socializing. The feature is not explicitly called a meeting or conference room in the provided remarks, so this may reflect MLS categorization of the shared recreation space.
At least 18 of the 20 remarks explicitly mention the feature, using phrases such as “multiple lanais,” “numerous decks,” “private lanai,” “large wrap-around lanai,” “entrance patio,” and “covered deck.” The evidence is strong across multiple listings and agents, confirming that Makani Kai Marina offers patio/deck outdoor spaces rather than relying solely on copied MLS checkbox data.
Evidence indicates the building has walking/jogging paths: although only 4/20 MLS checkboxes currently list WAJOPA, numerous remarks across different listings explicitly mention "scenic walking paths", "manicured paths" or "walking paths" near the pool/clubhouse areas. The repeated, explicit mentions across listings give moderate-to-high confidence that paths for walking/jogging are available.
No analysis available
10 of 20 current listings have the PRIYAR amenity checked in MLS, and at least 6 separate public remarks explicitly mention private yard/back yard or enclosed patio space (quotes include "Enclosed, private back yard space," "back yard space with grass and a gate," and "private yard"). Mentions appear across multiple listings/agents rather than being isolated to one listing, supporting inclusion of the feature for the building.
No analysis available
Recreation-area amenities are well supported across multiple listings. At least 4 listings describe a "recreation area," "recreation center," or resort-like common area, including one stating owners can relax poolside in the recreation area.
The building offers a recreation room. At least 3 listings explicitly mention a "rec room" or "recreation room," and the remarks include the more specific phrase "large nautical recreation room," supporting a shared building amenity rather than a unit-specific room.

Storage is strongly supported across many listings, with well over 10 remarks explicitly mentioning storage areas, cabinets, lockers, or loft storage. Examples include “extra storage space,” “loft storage,” “lock-able storage space,” “storage cabinets,” and “lots of storage in the unit,” consistent with the current MLS data and unlikely to be a single copy-paste error.
The listings identify kayak and canoe storage, storage for water toys, and general storage areas. None specifically state surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, or bike and surfboard storage.

Pool is strongly supported across the building: at least 10 current remarks explicitly mention a pool or swimming pool, with phrases such as 'sparkling pool,' 'enjoy the sparkling pool and recreation center,' 'access to the pool,' and 'top-notch amenities, including a swimming pool.' The evidence appears across multiple listing descriptions and aligns with the MLS amenity data showing POOL/CNDAP/COMAP/HEAPOO on 20/20 listings, so this is a genuine shared building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.
No analysis available
Multiple listings refer to a pool or sparkling pool, consistent with the building context. Searches for salt water pool, saltwater pool, salt pool, and saline pool found no qualifying mention.
0 listings explicitly mention in-unit laundry, washer/dryer, or stacked laundry in the public remarks. However, the MLS inclusions consistently list washer/dryer in all 20 of 20 current listings, providing strong cross-listing evidence that the building offers units with in-unit laundry.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for coin-operated, card-operated, quarter-operated, paid, fee-based, or other payment-required community laundry. No such laundry language was found.
The remarks were searched for laundry on each floor, laundry rooms on every floor, and floor-by-floor laundry access. No such descriptions were found.
No analysis available
At least 3 listings explicitly mention assigned parking, including "two assigned stalls" and "two assigned parking stalls." This confirms the high historical confidence and indicates assigned parking is a recurring building feature rather than an isolated listing detail.
At least 15 listings explicitly mention covered parking, commonly using phrases such as "two covered parking stalls" and "2 covered parking stalls with storage cabinets." The remarks are consistent across many listings and strongly corroborate the 19/20 MLS indication.
The listings consistently describe covered or assigned residential parking, often two stalls. However, the repeated references to deeded ownership apply to boat slips, not residential parking, so there is no affirmative evidence that parking is deeded.
No analysis available
The remarks mention boat-slip rental income of approximately $520 to $1,000 per month, but those amounts are unrelated to residential parking. Searches for parking fees, monthly parking charges, and additional parking costs found no mentions.
At least 4 listings explicitly mention guest parking, including "lots of guest parking," "ample guest parking," and "close access to guest parking." These references across multiple listings confirm that guest parking is available as a building-level feature.
There is some evidence for secured-entry parking, but it is weaker than the other parking features. Several remarks describe Makani Kai Marina as a 'gated community' or 'gated complex,' and the MLS has 7/20 listings tagged SECENT, but explicit parking-security language is limited. This looks plausible, though it may partly reflect general building security rather than parking-specific access.

No analysis available
The listings describe assigned, covered, guest, and additional parking, but do not indicate that residential parking is subject to a waitlist. Marina and boat-slip availability or rental references do not establish a residential parking waiting list.
No analysis available
The remarks frequently describe Makani Kai Marina as gated, private, secure, or quiet. No key card, keycard, fob, card reader, or electronic access system was identified.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for security patrol, roving security, patrol service, and patrolled building language. Although the community is repeatedly described as gated and secure, no patrol service is mentioned.

Building-level evidence supports split AC presence: MLS inclusions show ACSPL in 7 of 20 listings, and at least 8 public remarks explicitly state 'split AC(s)', 'split A/C units', or 'split air conditioning units' (e.g., 'multiple split ACs', 'Unit 29 has split ACs in bedrooms and living room', 'split AC units in every bedroom and the living room'). Mentions appear across different agent remarks and listings rather than a single copy/paste, so there is strong, corroborating evidence that some units in the building have split (ductless/mini-split) systems.

Sixteen of 20 current listings identify DOUWAL in the construction materials. None of the provided remarks explicitly mention "double wall," but they also provide no contradictory construction information; the repeated MLS checkbox support is strong enough to retain the feature.

Concrete slab appears in only 3 of 20 current MLS entries, so this is much weaker than the other construction features. There are no strong public-remarks references to 'concrete slab' or 'solid concrete foundation,' so this should be treated as limited MLS support rather than broadly established building-wide evidence.
No analysis available
Nineteen of 20 current listings identify WOOFRA in the construction materials, providing strong building-level evidence. The remarks focus on waterfront amenities and unit features and do not mention a competing construction type; the MLS support appears broadly consistent across listings.
Fifteen of 20 current listings identify ABOGRO in the construction materials. While the exact phrase "above ground construction" is not used, multiple remarks describe covered parking or storage "directly below," "under the house," or beneath the unit, which is consistent with the feature.

The public remarks provide no affirmative evidence that short-term rentals are allowed in the building. References to renting boat slips and the seller's 30-day leaseback do not establish residential STR rights, so this remains false based on the absence of supporting remarks.
The community is consistently described as a gated marina with residential pool, clubhouse, and recreation amenities rather than a hotel or hotel rental operation. Because STR permission is not supported, hotel-pool participation must also be false.
The listings contain no requirement that owners participate in a hotel rental program. Boat-slip rental references concern marina slips, not mandatory residential hotel-pool participation, and the STR prerequisite is not met.

The listings identify the ownership as fee simple, including statements that owners collectively own the fee simple land beneath the marina. Searches for leasehold terms, ground leases, lease expiration, renewal, and extension years found no applicable expiry year.
Several listings directly confirm VA financing availability through assumable VA loans and VA-qualified buyer language. The repeated explicit references provide strong evidence that the building supports VA financing.
The remarks were searched for fully insured, full insurance, comprehensive building insurance, walls-in coverage, and equivalent wording. No insurance coverage statement was found; under the available-value rules, this is recorded as false with medium-low confidence.
Fire sprinklers are not supported by the public remarks across the listings reviewed, and the feature appears in only 1 of 20 current MLS entries. With no agent remarks describing sprinklers or related installation details, this does not read as a reliable building amenity.
The remarks were searched for fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE, passed fire inspection, certification, and life-safety compliance language. No confirming or denying statement was found; under the available-value rules, this is recorded as false with medium-low confidence.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Ocean views are well supported across the listing remarks. I found explicit references in multiple listings, including phrases like 'ocean and mountain views,' 'fabulous ocean views of Kaneohe Bay,' and 'partial ocean view,' suggesting this is a real building-level feature available to some units. The MLS data also shows 7/20 listings with OCEAN, reinforcing that this is not just a copy-paste anomaly.
Mountain views are strongly supported across the listings, including phrases such as "majestic mountains," "Koolau Mountains," "mountain views of the Koolau's," and "ocean and mountain views." The repeated descriptions across multiple listings and the 13/20 current MLS count indicate this is a genuine building-level offering, not merely a single copied remark.

Garden-type views and landscaped surroundings appear in multiple remarks, including "lush surroundings," "lush tropical landscaping," "lush landscaped grounds," "courtyard," private yards, grassy areas, and tropical community outdoor areas. Although the wording varies by unit, the 11/20 MLS count and repeated descriptions across listings support including garden views.
No analysis available
Marina views are consistently documented, with remarks citing "marina views," "breathtaking marina and ocean views," "panoramic views of Kaneohe Bay, picturesque marina," and marina-front or waterfront living. The evidence spans many listings and aligns with the 13/20 MLS count, strongly confirming that the building offers marina-view units.
Sunrise views are explicitly confirmed in multiple remarks, including 'watch the sunrise from your peaceful Lanai' and 'watch the sun rise over Kaneohe bay.' Additional morning-related language like 'Morning sails' reinforces the east-facing/sunrise appeal. Even though the MLS checkbox data is only moderately present, the direct wording from listings provides strong evidence for this feature.

The remarks mention marina, bay, ocean, stream, mountain, and waterfront views. They do not state that Friday night fireworks are visible from a unit, lanai, or the building.

Resident manager is indicated in 19 of 20 current MLS listings, an exceptionally strong building-level pattern across the listing set. The 0 public remarks mentioning a resident manager is not sufficient to outweigh the near-universal MLS designation, which may be copied checkbox data but is highly consistent.

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.
