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.
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.

There are no explicit owner-occupancy statements in the public remarks. Per the numeric-field rules, the existing value (34.00%) is kept but with low confidence because no remarks confirm or contradict it.
Multiple listings reference elevator access, proximity to the elevator, and keyed/elevator entry, but none state a numeric count (e.g., '2 elevators' or 'four elevators'). Per rules, current numeric value is retained. Confidence is low since there is no explicit numeric confirmation in the public remarks.
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.

Multiple unit remarks (at least 6 listings) explicitly state cable/basic cable is included in the maintenance fee, e.g., "maintenance fee covers... cable TV" and "includes internet & cable." This aligns with historical MLS checkbox prevalence (15/20), and the evidence is consistent across different listings rather than a single copy/paste, so inclusion is strongly supported.
Multiple listings (at least 6) explicitly say maintenance covers common expenses/building maintenance or upkeep of common areas, with phrases like "upkeep of common areas" and "building maintenance." Combined with prior MLS prevalence, this provides strong evidence that common-area expenses are included in the fee.
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
At least 5 listings explicitly mention hot water is included in the maintenance fee (phrases like "maintenance fee covers hot water" and "includes... hot water"). This matches prior MLS data showing hot water inclusion in many listings and supports including hot water as a building-level included utility.
Multiple listings (at least 6) explicitly state internet is included in the maintenance fee with quotes like "maintenance fee covers... internet" and "includes internet & cable." This consistent, multi-listing confirmation aligns with historical MLS prevalence and indicates internet service is included building-wide.
No analysis available
18 of 20 current MLS listings indicate sewer is included in association fees. Multiple remarks explicitly state phrases like "maintenance fees cover water & sewer" and "maintenance fee includes ... sewer," showing consistent confirmation across different listings rather than isolated mentions; this supports a high-confidence inclusion of sewer in the building's maintenance fees.
18 of 20 current MLS listings indicate water is included in association fees. Several public remarks explicitly state "maintenance fee includes ... water, hot water, sewer" and similar wording, demonstrating consistent confirmation across multiple agent listings and supporting high confidence that water is covered by the building's maintenance fees.
Evidence is strong and consistent: the MLS shows 15/20 listings with BBQ checked and the public remarks repeatedly mention 'BBQ', 'BBQ area', or 'BBQ grilling area' (appears in ~15 listings). Mentions come from multiple agent write-ups (not just a single listing) and several refer to a pool deck with a BBQ/grilling area, supporting a high-confidence inclusion.

One listing states '6th Floor Amenities include pool, BBQ and patio' and another mentions a '6th-floor recreation deck complete with a pool and BBQ grilling area', indicating a shared deck/patio amenity.

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.

I searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and related phrases. Despite proximity to the beach being frequently mentioned, listings do not reference dedicated surfboard or board storage facilities.
No analysis available
MLS checkbox data strongly indicates a building trash-chute system (16/20 listings), but none of the public remarks mention 'trash chute', 'garbage chute', or similar. Given the medium historical confidence and lack of explicit remarks, the feature is included with moderate confidence pending direct verification (owner/manager/site visit).

Strong evidence across the record: numerous public remarks (over a dozen listings) explicitly list a pool—examples include "amenities are a swimming pool," "building offers a swimming pool," and "6th-floor recreation deck complete with a pool." One remark notes the pool is "currently under renovation," but overall the pool is repeatedly cited by different listings, matching the historical MLS flags (19/20) and indicating the building offers a pool.
No analysis available
I searched all remarks for 'salt', 'saltwater', or 'salt pool'. The pool is mentioned frequently as an amenity (including under renovation) but there is no evidence it is a salt-water pool.
Strong evidence that some units have in-unit laundry: MLS inclusion data shows 18/20 listings include washer/dryer, and many public remarks explicitly state phrases like 'in-unit washer and dryer', 'washer dryer in the unit', and 'stacked washer & dryer'. Mentions appear across multiple listings/agents rather than isolated copy-paste, so include laundry_in_unit for the building.
No analysis available
I looked for terms such as 'coin laundry', 'paid laundry', 'card operated', 'quarters', and 'coin-op'. None of the listings reference paid community laundry; instead they reference in-unit laundry.
I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry'. All public remarks describe in-unit washers/dryers and do not mention community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Strong evidence across listings that parking is assigned: many remarks explicitly state "assigned covered parking" or "assigned parking stall" and at least several listings note "deeded" or "two deeded parking spots." This aligns with prior MLS checkbox data (17/20) and appears consistently across multiple agent remarks rather than being a single copy/paste.
Strong, consistent evidence that the building offers covered parking: approximately 17 of the 20 listings (and multiple agent remarks) explicitly state covered or garage parking—phrases include "assigned covered parking", "covered secure parking stall", and "garage covered parking close to the elevator." Evidence is repeated across many agent remarks and aligns with prior high-confidence MLS checkbox data.
Multiple listings explicitly describe deeded/owner parking and mention two deeded stalls in at least one remark. I searched for 'deeded parking', 'deeded stall', and 'owned parking' and found direct references.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for terms like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'parking charge', and numeric amounts tied to parking but found no information about any additional parking cost. Multiple listings describe assigned/deeded covered parking stalls and gated/secured parking, but none reference a monthly fee or rental cost. Therefore the monthly parking fee is unknown from the public remarks.
No analysis available
Multiple listings (roughly 10–12 of the 20 public remarks) explicitly mention secured parking or secured building access—quotes include "secured building with fob access, a gated garage", "gated parking and keyed entrance to the building and the elevator", and "assigned covered secure parking stall." This repeated explicit language across different listings indicates the building provides secured entry to the parking.

I searched the remarks for phrases like 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', 'join waitlist', and similar terminology and found no references. Listings repeatedly reference assigned or deeded parking stalls and gated/secured parking but do not mention any waitlist system, so absence of mention suggests no organized waitlist is indicated in the remarks.
No analysis available
The public remarks explicitly state the building has fob/secured key access and gated/secured entry to elevator and parking, indicating card/fob-style electronic access is present.
No analysis available
I searched for terms like 'security patrol' and 'patrol service'. While the building describes secure access, onsite/resident managers, gated parking and fob/keyed entry, there is no explicit reference to a security patrol service in the remarks.

MLS inclusions historically show ACWIUN checked in 16/20 listings. At least 4 separate public remarks explicitly reference window AC or window air conditioners (e.g., "window AC and a step out lanai," "bathroom sink, fan, and window AC," and "new...air aitconditoners in 2021"). Evidence is consistent across multiple listings and aligns with the prior high-confidence checkbox data, indicating many units in the building have window AC units.
Strong historical evidence: 19 of 20 MLS records listed 'CONCRE' for construction materials. Current public remarks consistently describe the property as a high-rise/24-story building (quotes: "Monte Vista is a 24-story building..." and "high rise"), which aligns with reinforced concrete construction for Waikiki high-rises. No current remarks contradict concrete construction and no agent corrections were found, so inclusion is supported across multiple listings.

Multiple listings note a 30-day minimum rental policy and examples of 30-day rentals, which per the rules means short-term (sub-30-day) rentals are not allowed. I searched for 'short-term rental', 'STR', '30-day minimum', and found clear 30-day minimum language.
There are no references to a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed rental program in the public remarks. Because short-term rentals are not allowed (30-day minimum), hotel pool participation cannot apply.
No listing mentions a mandatory hotel/rental pool or required participation; several remarks explicitly note 30-day minimum rentals. Given STR is not permitted, mandatory pool cannot apply.

The remarks explicitly identify the leasehold expiry year as 2042. I looked for phrases like 'lease expires', 'leasehold to', and found the 2042 year clearly referenced.
Multiple listings explicitly note VA approval and an assumable VA rate. I searched the remarks for 'VA approved', 'VA financing', and 'VA assumable' and found explicit language confirming VA eligibility.
The marketing remarks explicitly state '100% HURRICANE INSURED,' which strongly indicates the HOA carries comprehensive building (walls-in) hurricane insurance. This explicit phrasing supports a high confidence that the building is fully insured by the HOA.
No analysis available
Public remarks do not contain any language indicating the building has passed a fire/life safety evaluation. Because there is no current value provided and no mentions in the remarks, the field is set to false with medium confidence (absence of evidence).

Strong, consistent evidence across the remarks: numerous listings explicitly mention mountain/Ko'olau/mauka views (e.g., "majestic mountains", "Ko'olau Mountain Range", "mountain views"). Many separate agent remarks reference unobstructed mountain views from living rooms, lanais, and bedrooms, indicating the building offers mountain-view units.
Multiple agent remarks explicitly mention Diamond Head views (quotes include "Diamond Head", "panoramic Diamond Head", "breathtaking views of Diamond Head"). The evidence is repeated across listings and appears across different units/ads, so Diamond Head views are a building-level offering.
Several listings mention city views or city lights (e.g., "city lights sparkle", "inspiring city landscape", "city views"), indicating that city-view units exist in the building. The mentions are explicit but less numerous than mountain/marina/golf references, so confidence is moderate-high.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Numerous listings explicitly state golf course views (e.g., "Ala Wai golf course", "golf course views", "unobstructed views of the Ala Wai Golf Course") from the living room, lanai, and bedrooms. The evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks, supporting inclusion as a building-level feature.
Consistent, repeated mentions of the Ala Wai Canal/Ala Wai (e.g., "Ala Wai Canal", "views of the Ala Wai", "canal views") appear across many listings, indicating strong building-level canal/marina views. Multiple agents describe unobstructed canal/harbor views from living rooms and bedrooms.
There is at least one explicit mention of sunrise/morning-sun exposure ("watch the sun rise over the mountains"), and other remarks reference east-facing or morning light. Mentions are limited, so the feature is included with moderate confidence to reflect that some units offer sunrise views.

I searched for explicit language like 'fireworks view', 'watch fireworks from lanai', or 'see fireworks from unit'. Remarks describe canal, golf course, mountain, city, Diamond Head and occasional ocean views but do not mention fireworks views from the building.

12 of 20 current MLS listings have the RESMAN amenity checked and at least seven separate public remarks explicitly mention 'on-site manager', 'site manager', or 'resident manager' (e.g., 'Site Manager.', 'attentive resident manager', 'on-site manager', 'onsite resident manager'). Mentions appear across multiple agent listings rather than being confined to a single repeated listing, giving strong support that the building offers a resident/on-site manager.
