None of the provided listings reference elevators (e.g., 'elevator', 'lift', 'multiple elevators'). The remarks focus on location, pool, laundry on each floor, security, and management, providing no evidence to confirm or deny the presence or number of elevators.

Public remarks from at least three different listings explicitly say that electricity is included in the HOA/maintenance fees. This matches the MLS data where 7 of 8 listings have ELECTR in association_fee_includes, and the repeated emphasis on 'includes electric' across agents strongly supports that electricity is a building-provided utility covered by the fee.
No analysis available
Remarks specifically highlight electricity as an included utility but never mention hot water, despite describing HOA inclusions. With only 2 of 8 MLS entries checking HOTWAT and at least one listing explicitly indicating an in-unit water heater, the more consistent interpretation is that hot water is not a building-supplied utility included in the fees.

While public remarks do not explicitly mention sewer, the MLS data is highly consistent with 7 of 8 listings including SEWER in the HOA inclusions. Given this pattern and typical local practice, it is very likely that sewer service is included in the maintenance fees for this building.
Although remarks focus on electricity, the MLS consistently shows WATER included in the association fees in 7 of 8 listings. This strong and uncontradicted MLS pattern indicates that water is a building-provided utility covered by the maintenance fee.

Searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', 'surf storage', and 'bike and surfboard storage' without any mentions. The lack of reference implies the building does not offer dedicated surfboard storage.

Multiple listings for Makini at Kinau explicitly reference a building pool, using phrases like 'Pool on property with a pool-side cabana,' 'sparkling pool,' and 'amenities include ... swimming pool.' These mentions appear across different agents and listings, not as a single copy-pasted remark. Combined with 8/8 MLS entries showing a pool amenity, this strongly confirms that the building has a shared swimming pool.
No analysis available
Searched for 'salt water pool', 'saltwater', 'saline', and 'salt pool' with no results. In the absence of any mention, the pool is assumed to be a standard (non-saltwater) pool.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly state the building has community/shared laundry, often specifying it is on each floor and coin-operated (e.g., 'coin operated community laundry on the same floor,' 'laundry room on each floor,' 'community laundry on every floor'). At least five distinct agent remarks corroborate this, aligning with 7/8 MLS entries showing COMLAU. Evidence is strong and consistent that the building offers community laundry facilities.
The community laundry is clearly described as coin-operated, indicating payment is required. No listings suggest any free community laundry option.
Multiple listings explicitly confirm that there are laundry facilities on every floor. This is consistently described as a building amenity.
All 8 current MLS listings include a parking feature code and none report 'no parking'. Remarks repeatedly mention parking, e.g., 'a dedicated parking stall', 'one uncovered parking', and 'with a parking stall'. Evidence across multiple agents and listings strongly confirms that units in this building come with parking.
All 8 listings have ASSIGN in parking_features, indicating assigned stalls. Public remarks back this up with phrases like 'one assigned parking stall (end stall, uncovered)', 'a dedicated parking stall', and 'your own designated parking space', confirming that parking is assigned rather than unassigned or first-come-first-served.
No analysis available
Parking is consistently described as a specific stall that comes with the unit, implying ownership/assignment tied to the condo rather than a separate rental. While 'deeded' is not stated, the language strongly suggests the stall is owned with the unit.
No analysis available
None of the listings indicate that residents pay an extra recurring fee specifically for parking. Without explicit mention of a parking charge, any parking fee amount is unknown.

Each listing that mentions parking specifies a stall included with the unit but never refers to a waitlist system. In the absence of any such references, a formal parking waitlist is unlikely.
No analysis available
Searched for 'key card', 'keycard', 'fob', 'card access', and 'electronic access' in the remarks and found no references. Security appears to be via secured/intercom lobby rather than card/fob access.
No analysis available
Searched for 'security patrol', 'roving security', 'patrolled', and similar phrases and found none. This suggests there is no dedicated security patrol service described in marketing materials.

Multiple listings indicate that units in this building have air conditioners, with one explicitly describing "window a/c units in bedroom & living room." MLS inclusions show 6 of 8 current listings flagged for window A/C, and several listings mention monthly A/C reimbursement/usage fees, strongly supporting that window A/C units are present in at least some units and allowed by the building.
All 8 recent listings for Makini at Kinau mark concrete in the construction_materials field, and none of the remarks suggest an alternative construction type. Although the public remarks do not explicitly say 'concrete construction,' the uniform MLS data across multiple agents and the style of the building strongly support that it is a concrete structure.

Listings present the building as a conventional residential condominium with on-site management and standard amenities, not as a vacation or hotel-style property. With no evidence of STR-friendly language, short-term rentals are presumed not allowed or at least not a known/advertised feature.
The building is marketed purely as a residential condo with a swimming pool, not as part of hotel operations. With no sign of a hotel rental program and STR likely not allowed, a hotel pool does not exist here.
Owners are not described as being compelled to place units into a rental or hotel program. Since there is no hotel pool at all, mandatory participation is effectively ruled out.

Remarks do not reference leasehold terms or a ground lease expiry date; they read like standard fee simple condo marketing. Without an explicit year such as 'lease expires 2050', the lease expiry remains unknown.
The building clearly supports VA financing, with several listings explicitly noting 'VA approved' and marketing VA-related loan options. This strongly confirms ongoing VA eligibility.
Several listings explicitly state that the building has '100% coverage for hurricane insurance,' indicating a comprehensive building-level hurricane policy carried by the HOA. This repeated language across separate remarks strongly supports that the building is fully insured for hurricane risk at the HOA level.
No analysis available
Listings often highlight a passed fire/life safety evaluation when it exists, but these remarks do not mention any fire or life safety certification, inspection, or evaluation. Given this continued absence, it is likely the building has not notably advertised a passed fire/life safety evaluation.

Multiple data points indicate city views are available in this building: 1 public remark specifically notes you can "gaze into the city scene," and 2 of 8 current MLS entries include CITY in the view descriptions. Since buyers can obtain units with urban/city views here, the building should be marked as offering city views even though not all listings mention them.
