The text notes some rental activity (e.g., renting boat slips, one unit subject to a lease) but provides no quantitative or qualitative measure of overall owner occupancy. Without explicit figures or ratios, the owner-occupancy percentage cannot be determined.
Remarks describe multi-level townhomes, lanais, stairs, and parking but never reference elevators or lift access. With no explicit statements, the presence or count of elevators remains unknown.
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.
Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Most recent listings (15/20) check the MLS box indicating cable TV is included in the association fee. Although the public remarks focus on boating and lifestyle rather than utilities, the consistent checkbox usage across many different listings indicates cable service is HOA‑included at the building level.
A large majority of listings (17/20) mark common area electricity as included in HOA fees. Even though the remarks emphasize amenities (pool, clubhouse, marina) rather than utilities, the strong, repeated MLS indication supports treating common-area electricity as fee‑included.

The overwhelming pattern is that units have their own water heaters (WTRHTR in 12/20 listings) and only one listing checked the HOA hot‑water box, which is likely agent error. No remarks mention hot water as an HOA‑included utility, so building-supplied hot water should be considered not included in the maintenance fee.
If internet were HOA‑included at the building level, it would be expected across nearly all listings, similar to water and sewer. Instead, just 5/20 check the MLS internet box and no remarks state that internet is included, so those few checks are likely inconsistent agent entries rather than evidence of a true building feature.
No analysis available
Nearly all listings (17/20) indicate that sewer is included in HOA fees. The absence of any remark suggesting separate sewer billing, combined with this strong MLS pattern across many units and agents, supports treating sewer as a building‑included utility.
Water appears in association_fee_includes on 18 of 20 recent listings, far more consistently than features prone to agent error. Although the remarks focus on marina and views rather than utilities, this broad agreement across listings indicates domestic water service is included in the maintenance fees.
Several independent listings describe common BBQ amenities, e.g., 'grilling spaces' and a 'grilling/picnic area' near the pool. With 19/20 MLS entries marking BBQ and consistent remarks, it's clear the complex offers shared BBQ/grill facilities.

Several remarks reference a 'clubhouse', including statements like 'pool, clubhouse, scenic walking paths' and 'The pool and clubhouse are great for having get-togethers'. With universal MLS marking and clear textual confirmation, the building definitely has a clubhouse/community center.

Agents mention a 'recreation room' and 'large nautical recreation room' as part of the complex amenities, indicating an indoor community space. Together with over half of the MLS listings marking a meeting room-type amenity, this supports the presence of a shared meeting/community room.
Multiple listings for Makani Kai Marina describe substantial outdoor spaces such as lanais, decks, and patios, including phrases like “a number decks,” “4 private lanais,” “front deck facing the marina,” “large wrap-around lanai,” and “1 large entrance patio.” MLS checkbox data (13 of 20 listings with PATDEC/COVPAT) aligns with these remarks, suggesting patios/decks are a standard amenity in this complex. Given the consistency across many units and agents, buyers can reasonably expect patio/deck-style outdoor living spaces in this building.

Listings repeatedly describe large shared recreation spaces, including a 'resort-like common area', 'recreation center', walking paths, and landscaped grounds. Combined with 15/20 MLS checks, this supports a common recreation/amenity area for residents.

Multiple listings describe extra storage associated with units, including phrases like "two covered parking spaces and extra storage," "2 covered parking stalls with storage cabinets," "lock-able storage space is available in the carport, along with two outdoor storage spaces," "loft storage," and "storage spaces in patio and by the parking stall." Combined with MLS data showing storage in 11/20 amenities and 15/20 unit features, this strongly supports that the building offers additional storage/locker-type spaces for residents. Buyers seeking buildings with extra storage would find this property suitable.
I searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and similar phrases. While there are references to storage for kayaks and other watercraft and general storage for water toys, there is no explicit mention of surfboard-specific storage.

Multiple listings for Makani Kai Marina explicitly describe a shared pool among the community amenities, using phrases like “access to the pool,” “sparkling pool,” and “resort-style amenities, including a pool.” Combined with 20/20 MLS entries checking pool-related amenities, the evidence strongly supports that the building offers a common swimming pool for residents.
No analysis available
I searched for 'salt water pool', 'saltwater pool', 'salt pool' and similar phrases. The listings reference a pool numerous times but never specify it is a salt-water pool.
Across 20 of 20 recent MLS listings for Makani Kai Marina, the inclusions list a washer/dryer for each unit, indicating in-unit laundry is available in the building. Although the public remarks focus mainly on boat slips, views, and renovations rather than laundry, the uniform washer/dryer checkbox across multiple listings and agents makes it likely that at least some units have laundry in-unit. Buyers seeking in-unit laundry would reasonably consider this building based on the MLS data.
No analysis available
I looked for terms such as 'coin laundry', 'coin-op', 'card-operated', 'quarters', or references to paid laundry. The listings reference storage, marina, pool and amenities but do not mention any paid community laundry.
I searched the remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry'. There are no references to any community laundry locations or floor-by-floor laundry facilities in the provided remarks.

Multiple listings describe covered parking in detail, including phrases such as 'Two covered parking stalls very close by the entry,' '2 covered parking stalls, both come with storage cabinets,' and 'The covered carport includes two assigned stalls and ample storage.' Together with 19 of 20 MLS records checked as covered/garage parking, this strongly confirms that Makani Kai Marina offers covered parking for residents. The consistency across many different listings and agents suggests this is a reliable, building-wide feature rather than a data entry error.
I searched for explicit phrases like 'deeded parking' or 'parking included in deed' and found none. Parking is described as assigned/covered and sometimes rented, which suggests parking is not described as deeded in the public remarks.

Searched remarks for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', or specific dollar amounts. While a stall is mentioned as rented in one listing, there are no explicit monthly parking fee amounts to extract.

Double-wall construction is checked on 16 of 20 listings, a strong majority for a fundamental building characteristic. No remarks hint at single-wall or unconventional construction, so the evidence supports that the building is predominantly double-wall constructed.

Wood frame construction appears on 19 of 20 current MLS listings for this building, indicating a consistent, building-wide attribute rather than a one-off agent error. The remarks focus on finishes and lifestyle but do not conflict with wood-frame construction, so it is very likely the complex is wood framed.
Above-ground construction is noted in 14 of 20 current listings, and the descriptions of multi-level townhomes with lanais and carports are consistent with fully above-ground structures. No listing remarks suggest any below-grade or earth-bermed design, supporting this designation.

Searched remarks for 'short-term rental', 'vacation rental', 'NUC', 'TVU' and for any 30-day minimum language. There are no statements indicating short-term rentals are permitted or regulated, so STR allowed is not supported by the public remarks.
Searched for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel program', or hotel brand management mentions; found none. Because short-term rentals are not indicated, hotel pool participation is not supported.
Checked for language like 'mandatory hotel pool' or 'required to participate' and found none. Listings describe optional rental of boat slips and owner flexibility, so no evidence supports a mandatory rental pool.

Searched all public remarks for 'lease expires', 'land lease', 'ground lease', and four-digit expiry years. Found no land lease language or expiry year; only references to boat slip month-to-month leases, so land lease expiry is unknown.
Several listings explicitly advertise assumable VA loans and incentives for VA-qualified buyers, indicating the project accepts VA financing. I searched the remarks for phrases like 'VA approved' and 'assumable VA' and found multiple explicit references.
Remarks discuss HOA amenities and lifestyle benefits, but never reference strong or walls-in HOA insurance coverage, which is typically advertised when present. In the absence of any such language, full building insurance coverage is considered unlikely based on available data.
No analysis available
Listings highlight many community features (gated access, pool, marina, boat slips, views) but do not mention any fire/life safety evaluation or passing a related inspection. Due to this total absence, it is likely the building has not emphasized or recently passed a formal FLSE.

Several listings explicitly describe mountain or Koolau views, including phrases like 'majestical mountain', 'beauty of the surrounding Ko’olau mountains', 'mountain views from both the private gated lanai', and 'breathtaking ocean and mountain views'. MLS data also shows 5 of 20 current listings with MOUNTA in the view field and none with view=NONE, confirming that mountain views are a recurring, building-level feature. The consistency across multiple listings and agents suggests this is a genuine characteristic rather than a copy-paste error.

Across the current set of listings for this complex, 19 out of 20 have the RESMAN amenity selected in the MLS, implying an on-site/resident manager for the property. The public remarks focus on boating, marina access, gated-community living, and amenities like pool and clubhouse, without directly mentioning a manager, but the near-universal checkbox usage across multiple agents points to a real building feature rather than a one-off copy/paste mistake.
