Monte Vista
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.

Monte Vista
Building Overview
Monte Vista in Waikiki — 1978 concrete 21-story building with 60 units, pool and resident manager.
About Monte Vista
Monte Vista is a 21-floor residential building located in Central Waikiki. According to available records, the building was constructed in 1978, is of concrete construction, and contains a total of 60 units.
Key on-site features include a pool and a BBQ area, as well as on-site staff: a resident manager and a security guard. The building has two elevators and units are served by window air conditioning. Pets are allowed; short-term rentals are not permitted. The property is managed by Associa.
Parking is available and provided as covered, assigned stalls. Other specifics such as maintenance fees, assessments, exact parking stall assignments, and unit-level details are not provided in the MLS-derived data. Based on MLS data, buyers and their agents should verify all details, fees, and policies independently before making any decisions.

I searched for owner-occupancy percentages and descriptions such as "owner occupied," "80% owner occupied," or "majority owner occupied." No remarks provide owner-occupancy information, so the current value of 34.0 is retained with low confidence and there is no evidence to confirm or deny it.
I searched for explicit counts such as "2 elevators," "4 elevators," or "multiple elevators." The remarks only confirm that the building has elevator access and do not confirm or contradict the current value, so the current value of 2 is retained with low confidence.
Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Cable inclusion is well supported across Monte Vista. Multiple remarks explicitly state maintenance fees include "cable," "cable TV," or "internet & cable," and the MLS history shows CABTV on 17 of 20 listings. This looks like a consistent building-level fee inclusion rather than a one-off agent entry.
Common-area expense coverage is supported by both the MLS history and public remarks. While the language is less specific than for utilities, multiple listings reference "common expenses" or "building maintenance," which aligns with the OTCOEX inclusion pattern. This appears consistent across agents rather than a single isolated remark.
No analysis available
One listing explicitly notes that the monthly maintenance fee includes “all utilities (most electricity),” implying that electricity is substantially included in the HOA. While only 1/20 current MLS records check the electricity box and most agent remarks do not mention it, there is no opposing evidence that electricity is excluded. Given the direct statement and lack of contradiction, electricity is treated as included but with moderate confidence due to sparse mention and checkbox inconsistency.
No analysis available
Hot water inclusion is directly confirmed in the remarks and strongly reinforced by MLS history. At least two listings state the maintenance fee covers "hot water," and the MLS history shows HOTWAT in 14 of 20 listings, with one WTRHTR entry as an additional indicator. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and not just copy-paste noise.
Internet coverage is strongly supported across the dataset. Multiple listings explicitly mention "internet" included in maintenance fees, and the MLS history shows INTSER on 15 of 20 listings. The repeated mention across different remarks makes this highly credible.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is one of the most consistently confirmed items for this building. Several remarks explicitly list "sewer" among the covered fees, including phrasing like "maintenance fees cover water & sewer," and the MLS history shows SEWER on 18 of 20 listings. This is strong building-level evidence.
Water inclusion is very strongly supported. Multiple remarks directly say maintenance fees cover "water" or "water & sewer," and the MLS history shows WATER on 18 of 20 listings. The repeated confirmation across many listings suggests a stable building expense included in the HOA fee.
BBQ is a clear building amenity at Monte Vista. Across many current remarks, agents repeatedly reference "BBQ," "BBQ area," and "BBQ grilling area," which strongly confirms the MLS amenity and does not look like a one-off mention.

There is no supporting evidence in the public remarks for a car wash facility at this building. With only 1/20 MLS listings checking the box and no descriptive mentions of a car wash station or auto wash area, this feature does not appear to be reliably present.

Patio/deck amenities are strongly supported across the listings. At least several remarks explicitly mention a 'lanai,' 'patio,' or 'recreation deck,' including phrases like '6th Floor Amenities include pool, BBQ and patio' and '6th-floor recreation deck complete with a pool and BBQ grilling area.' This appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste error.

Multiple listings (about 5–6) explicitly reference a recreation deck/rec area or '6th-floor recreation deck', aligning with MLS checkbox data (5/20). Mentions appear across several agent remarks (not isolated), giving moderate confidence that the building offers a common recreation area.
Evidence is limited but present across several listings: agents repeatedly describe a 'recreation area,' 'recreation deck,' or '6th-floor recreation deck' alongside the pool and BBQ area. There are no explicit references to a 'rec room' or 'game room,' so this appears to be a loosely described common amenity rather than clearly documented room space.

There is moderate evidence that Monte Vista offers storage or locker space. Out of the provided remarks, 2 listings explicitly mention storage-related features, including 'a small storage cabinet on the 11th floor' and 'ample storage space.' The MLS history also shows storage/additional storage appearing in a minority of listings, suggesting a building feature that may be inconsistently entered by agents rather than a copy-paste error.
The listings mention nearby surf spots and Waikiki Beach but provide no evidence of dedicated surfboard or board storage facilities. Proximity to surfing locations does not establish storage.
No analysis available
Trash chute remains supported by the MLS history for Monte Vista, with 17 of 20 listings marked for it. Public remarks rarely mention the chute directly, but there is no contradictory evidence suggesting it was removed, so the high-confidence MLS feature stands.

Very strong evidence that Monte Vista has a shared swimming pool. Pool is mentioned in many current remarks across multiple listings, including phrases like "building amenities include a pool," "swimming pool," and "6th-floor recreation deck complete with a pool." The consistent mentions across many agents look like genuine building-level information, further reinforced by the MLS amenities data showing pool in all current listings.
I did not find any public remarks supporting a heated pool, despite many listings mentioning a pool in general. With only 1/20 MLS records showing HEAPOO and no corroborating text like "heated pool" or "heated swimming pool," there is strong evidence that this feature is not actually established for the building.
The building's pool is confirmed in multiple listings, including references to renovation and a pool deck. No salt-water terminology was found in the public remarks.
Strong, consistent evidence across many listings confirms in-unit laundry. At least a dozen current remarks explicitly mention phrases such as "washer/dryer in unit," "washer dryer in the unit," "full-size washer and dryer in the unit," and "stacked washer & dryer," which aligns with the high-confidence historical MLS data (18/20 listings). This does not look like a copy-paste checkbox issue; the feature is repeatedly described in the public remarks.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for terms including coin laundry, coin-op, quarters, laundry fee, and card-operated laundry. No evidence of paid community laundry was found, while multiple listings mention in-unit laundry.
The remarks were searched for explicit references to laundry facilities on every floor or floor-by-floor laundry. No such mentions were found; several listings instead describe in-unit washers and dryers.
No analysis available
Evidence is very strong that Monte Vista has assigned/reserved parking. Roughly 15+ of the provided remarks explicitly mention assigned, reserved, deeded, designated, or secure parking stalls, often noting the stall is close to the elevator or lobby. The consistency across many listings and agents suggests this is a real building feature, not a copy-paste error.
Covered parking is overwhelmingly supported for Monte Vista. Multiple listings explicitly mention "assigned covered parking," "secure parking stall," "gated garage," and "covered parking garage," across many different remarks and agents, indicating this is a real building feature rather than a copy-paste error. The evidence is consistent and strong enough to keep the feature marked true.
The remarks directly confirm deeded parking, including two deeded stalls in at least one listing. This is strong evidence that deeded parking exists in the building, although individual units may have different parking arrangements.
No analysis available
The remarks describe assigned, covered, gated, and deeded parking but do not state any parking fee. Because no current parking-fee value is provided, the fee is unknown.
No analysis available
There is strong evidence for secured parking entry/access at Monte Vista. Multiple remarks mention 'secured building and parking,' 'fob access,' 'gated parking,' 'keyed entrance,' and 'secured key access,' indicating the feature is real and widely recognized. The consistency across listings supports high confidence.
No analysis available

The listings discuss parking availability and assigned stalls but do not mention a parking waitlist. There is no evidence that a waitlist system exists.
No analysis available
Multiple listings provide strong, repeated evidence of electronic or keyed access controls for the building and elevator. This supports a card, fob, or comparable controlled-access security system.
No analysis available
The remarks describe the building as secured and mention controlled, keyed, or fob access, gated parking, and an onsite manager. They do not mention a patrol service, so access control should not be interpreted as security patrol.

Window AC is strongly supported for Monte Vista. At least 3 current listings explicitly mention it, including phrases like "window AC," "New window A/C in Bedroom 2025," and "window AC and a step out lanai." This aligns with the already high-confidence MLS history and does not look like a one-off copy-paste error.
Concrete construction is strongly supported at the building level by MLS history, with 18 of 20 listings marked CONCRE. The current remarks across multiple listings focus on views, amenities, and unit upgrades, but they do not contradict the established construction material. This appears to be a consistent MLS building attribute rather than a copy-paste error.
Double-wall construction is not supported by the current remarks. While 5 of 20 MLS listings include DOUWAL, the feature is never described in the public remarks, which makes this look like weak or possibly copy-pasted MLS checkbox data. There is not enough evidence to treat it as a confirmed building feature.

4 out of 20 current MLS listings include the 'ABOGRO' construction_materials code suggesting above-ground construction, but none of the public remarks across listings mention 'above ground' construction or similar phrasing. The signal is weak and inconsistent across agents, so inclusion is cautious—listed by some agents (4/20) but not corroborated in remarks and may reflect checkbox copy/paste rather than an explicit building description.

The listings permit or describe rentals with a 30-day minimum, which does not establish short-term rental authorization under the provided rule. No explicit statement authorizes vacation rentals, STRs, NUCs, or TVUs.
No remarks mention a hotel rental program, hotel management, Hilton/Trump/Ritz pool, or participation in hotel operations. Because short-term rental authorization is not established, this feature must also be false.
The remarks contain no evidence that owners must participate in a hotel rental pool. Since the prerequisite for STR and hotel-pool participation is not met, mandatory pool participation is false.

The building is explicitly described as leasehold through 2042. No later lease extension or renewal year is mentioned.
The remarks directly confirm that Monte Vista is VA approved. This is repeated in multiple listings, providing very strong evidence.
Multiple listings explicitly describe the building as fully or 100% hurricane insured. This is strong direct evidence supporting full building insurance coverage, so the existing true value is retained with high confidence.
No analysis available
I searched for statements such as "fire/life safety evaluation passed," "FLSE passed," "fire safety certified," "life safety compliant," and "passed fire inspection." No such statements were found, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building passed an FLSE.

Strong evidence that the building offers mountain views. Roughly 20+ remarks mention 'mountains,' 'Ko'olau Mountain Range,' 'mauka-west corner,' 'majestic mountains,' and 'sun rise over the mountains,' often alongside canal and golf course views. The consistency across many listings suggests this is a real building feature, not just a one-off agent description.
Strong building-level evidence supports Diamond Head views. Multiple listings explicitly mention Diamond Head, including phrases like "panoramic Diamond Head," "breathtaking views of Diamond Head," and "Enjoy the view of the Ala Wai Canal and Diamond Head." Historical MLS data also shows 8/20 listings with DIAHEA and no listings marked NONE, so this appears consistent across agents.
City views are supported by both MLS data and repeated listing remarks. Multiple units reference "city lights sparkle," "city lights," "city views," and "inspiring city landscape," confirming this is a real building-level view option. The evidence appears consistent across several agents and unit types, including higher-floor and corner units.
No analysis available
No evidence: 0 listings mention garden/courtyard/landscaped views and current MLS view_descriptions show no GARDEN entries. Given the absence of any remarks or checklist indications, garden view is not supported for the building.
Golf course views are heavily and consistently supported. Numerous listings mention "Ala Wai Golf Course," "golf course views," "unobstructed views of the golf course," and similar phrasing, often alongside canal and mountain views. This is strong multi-listing evidence that the building offers genuine golf-course-view units.
Marina-style views are very strongly supported by the current remarks and MLS data. Many listings explicitly mention "Ala Wai Canal," "canal views," "peaceful water views," and similar language, making this one of the clearest features for the building. The evidence is broad and repeated across numerous listings, suggesting it is a standard offering rather than an isolated unit trait.
Moderate evidence: at least a few listings explicitly reference sunrise/eastern exposure (quotes include "watch the sun rise over the mountains" and "east-facing orientation"). The mentions appear in multiple agent remarks, suggesting some units/building exposures offer sunrise views, but references are less numerous than mountain/canal mentions.

The remarks describe canal, golf course, mountain, Diamond Head, city, and partial ocean views. No explicit statement was found that units or the building have a Friday-night fireworks view.

Evidence is strong and consistent across many listings for Monte Vista. At least 4-5 current remarks explicitly mention a resident/on-site manager with phrases like "on-site manager," "onsite resident manager," and "attentive resident manager." Combined with the high historical MLS confidence (14/20 listings with RESMAN), this strongly supports that the building has a resident manager on-site.
