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.

I looked for numeric owner-occupancy percentages and qualitative descriptions of owner occupancy, but the remarks do not mention them. Without explicit listing language, the owner-occupancy rate cannot be inferred.
I reviewed all public remarks for explicit elevator references, including numeric counts and phrases like 'multiple elevators,' but found none. Because the building type is a townhome community and the remarks do not mention elevators at all, the number of elevators cannot be determined from these listings.

MLS checkbox data shows OTCOEX (common-area electricity) checked on 18 of 20 current listings, and prior assessments flagged this with high confidence. Remarks do not explicitly state 'common area electricity included,' but widespread MLS association entries across multiple agents strongly support that common-area/amenity electricity is paid through the association (though some agent copy/paste risk exists).

Multiple listings emphasize individual water heaters and solar water heaters in the units, and only 1/20 MLS entries marks hot water as included in fees, while 15/20 explicitly list water heaters as unit features. One remark lists what is covered by the maintenance fee (water, sewer, internet) without mentioning hot water, which strongly suggests hot water is not a building-provided utility included in HOA dues. Taken together, this supports excluding hot water from the association fee coverage at the building level.

Seventeen of 20 MLS records list SEWER in association_fee_includes and one or more public remarks explicitly say 'Water and sewer included in the main. fees.' This explicit remark plus consistent MLS checkbox data across multiple listings provides strong evidence that sewer is included in the maintenance fees.
Seventeen of 20 MLS records list WATER in association_fee_includes and a listing remark explicitly reads 'Water and sewer included in the main. fees.' The explicit remark combined with widespread MLS entries across multiple agents gives strong evidence that water is included in the association/maintenance fees.
Multiple listing remarks across the building explicitly mention barbecue/BBQ facilities — examples include 'back patio ... ideal for BBQs' and 'community amenities, including a pool, a BBQ area, and a recreation space.' These mentions appear in roughly 5–7 different listings from different agents (some repetition suggests partial copy-paste), providing consistent evidence that the building offers BBQ/grilling facilities.

Multiple listings explicitly reference a clubhouse or community/recreation center (e.g., "community comes with... clubhouse", "Kanehoa Recreation Center with a pool & recreation areas", "access to the Kanehoa Community Association which includes a pool and club house"). At least several different listings (from different agents) mention clubhouse/club house or recreation center, and 5 of 20 MLS records currently have the CLUHOU amenity checked, providing consistent evidence that the building offers a clubhouse/common community center.

Strong evidence that the building offers patios/decks: roughly 18 of the provided public remarks explicitly mention outdoor spaces with phrases like "private lanai," "private garden patio," "enclosed courtyard," "private front patio," and "private lanai/deck." CURRENT MLS amenities show PATDEC/COVPAT checked on 16 of 20 listings, and remarks come from many different agents rather than a single duplicate phrase, indicating the feature is widely available across units.

Storage is clearly offered in this building: 16 of 20 listings include storage in unit_features and 7 of 20 list building-level storage. Multiple public remarks explicitly state "dedicated storage," "storage shed," "storage unit," "finished loft with approx. 220 square feet of bonus storage," and "pull-down ladder to the attic," indicating storage is available in many units rather than being a one-off, copy-paste item.
I looked for phrases like 'surfboard storage,' 'board storage,' and 'surf storage.' The listings mention storage sheds and space for bikes and ocean toys, but nothing that specifically confirms surfboard storage facilities.

All 20 listings in the MLS checklist indicate a pool and the public remarks repeatedly confirm access to a community swimming pool (phrases include "community pool", "access to the Kanehoa Community Association which includes a pool", and "pool across the street"). Multiple agents consistently mention the pool across listings, so evidence is strong and corroborated across listings rather than likely copy/paste error.
No analysis available
I searched for 'salt water pool,' 'saltwater pool,' 'salt pool,' and related terms. The remarks consistently mention a community pool, but never identify it as salt water.
Strong, consistent evidence that units in this building offer in-unit laundry: historical MLS data indicated 19/20 listings include washer/dryer. Current listing remarks repeatedly state phrases like "washer and dryer," "in-unit washer/dryer," "full size washer and dryer," and "washer + dryer," appearing across multiple agents' remarks rather than as a single isolated note. This provides high confidence that some or many units in the building have in-unit laundry.
No analysis available
I looked for public remarks indicating coin laundry, laundry fees, quarters, or card-operated machines. The remarks instead repeatedly describe in-unit washer/dryer or laundry closets, with no evidence of a paid community laundry room.
I searched the remarks for explicit wording like 'laundry on each floor,' 'laundry room on every floor,' and similar phrases. The listings only mention in-unit washer/dryer or a laundry closet/area inside specific units, not a shared laundry facility on every floor.
Strong, consistent evidence that the building provides parking: MLS checkbox data shows parking for 20/20 listings and numerous remarks explicitly state parking details such as "two parking stalls", "two assigned parking stalls", and "side-by-side parking stalls." Evidence is repeated across many agent remarks and appears reliable rather than a single copy/paste entry.
Several listings clearly note assigned or reserved stalls (e.g., 'two assigned parking stalls', 'reserved parking stall', '2 assigned corner parking stalls'), and many describe specific, fixed stall locations. Combined with 16/20 MLS entries flagged as ASSIGN, this strongly supports that parking in this complex is assigned to units.
No analysis available
I looked for explicit deeded-parking language such as "deeded parking," "owned stall," or "parking included in deed." The listings only describe stalls as assigned, reserved, or included as parking spaces, which is not enough to confirm deeded ownership.
No analysis available
I searched for parking cost language such as "parking fee," "monthly parking," "rental," or dollar amounts tied to parking. Nothing in the remarks indicates a separate parking charge.

I searched for terms like "parking waitlist," "waiting list," and similar phrasing. The remarks instead mention assigned, reserved, and dedicated stalls, but there is no evidence of a waitlist system.

I checked for card/fob access terms such as 'key card access,' 'fob access,' and 'keycard entry.' The only security-related mention was a unit security system and Ring doorbell, which is not evidence of building card access.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for any sign of patrol service or roving security. The community is described as peaceful, secure, and well-kept, but there is no explicit mention of security patrol.

Many listings (approximately 8–12 of the provided remarks) explicitly state split A/C or split units — key phrases include "upgraded split A/C system," "split A/C units," "2 split A/C's," and "Split ACs." This confirmation across multiple agent remarks and prior high-confidence data indicates the building offers split (ductless/mini-split) A/C in at least some units.
MLS inclusion ACWIUN is checked on 8 of 20 current listings, and at least one listing remark explicitly says 'Upstairs, the bedrooms feature window AC units for year-round comfort.' Several other remarks reference split A/C systems (likely different units), suggesting mixed AC types across the building. Evidence indicates some units do have window AC units, so the building should be listed as offering window AC.
No analysis available
13 of 20 MLS records list double-wall (DOUWAL) in construction_materials, but none of the public remarks mention 'double wall' or similar language. The feature is included because multiple MLS listings flag it, but confidence is moderate due to lack of confirming remarks or owner/site-verification.

MLS construction_materials indicate wood frame in 15 of 20 listings and prior confidence was High. Public remarks do not explicitly state 'wood frame', but the consistent checkbox across many listings (multiple agents) provides strong evidence that the building is wood-frame construction.

I searched the listings for STR-related phrases including "short-term rental allowed," "vacation rental," "NUC," and "TVU," as well as language that would prohibit STRs like "30-day minimum" or "owner-occupant only." No such references were found, so there is no evidence that STRs are allowed.
There are no references to hotel rental pool programs, hotel management, or branded hotel pools in the remarks. Because STR is not supported in the listings, hotel-pool participation is very unlikely based on available public remarks.
No remarks indicate any mandatory participation in a rental pool or that owners must rent their units. With no evidence of a hotel rental program or STR allowance, a mandatory hotel-pool requirement is not supported by the public remarks.

I searched the public remarks for phrases like "lease expires," "leasehold," "ground lease," "land lease," and any 4-digit expiry year, but found nothing. No evidence in these listings to identify a lease expiration date.
Several listings explicitly advertise VA-assumable loans and specific assumption rates and balances, indicating VA financing is available for units in this building. The repeated, explicit language across listings gives high confidence.
Multiple listings include explicit language indicating comprehensive building insurance (examples include 'full hurricane insurance coverage' and 'full hurricane insurance coverage for added peace of mind'), supporting that the HOA/building is fully insured (walls-in style).
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for any statement that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation or similar certification, and found nothing. There is no explicit confirmation in the listings, so this remains unverified from public remarks.

Strong evidence that the building offers ocean views: 15 of 20 current MLS listings list OCEAN in view_descriptions and numerous remarks state phrases like "ocean views", "unobstructed ocean views", "ocean & Diamond Head views", and "ocean facing bedrooms". The ocean-view claim is repeated across many listings/agents and is corroborated by the high MLS count, so confidence is high.
Moderate evidence that the building offers mountain views: 5 of 20 MLS listings list MOUNTA in view_descriptions and multiple remarks mention "mountain & city views" or "panoramic ... mountain and city views" (plus repeated references to "mountain breezes"). Enough listings report mountain views for buyers to expect some units with mauka/mountain exposures, though the signal is weaker than for ocean.
At least 9 separate listings explicitly mention Diamond Head views, including phrases like “Breathtaking Diamond Head, City, and Ocean Views!” and “This 3-bedroom…offers…unobstructed ocean views with Diamond Head as its centerpiece.” These mentions come from different agents and units, indicating that multiple homes in Palehua Gardens enjoy Diamond Head vistas even though some interior units may not.
No analysis available
Several listings explicitly describe coastline views, using phrases like “breathtaking views of the coast,” “Diamond Head coastline views,” and “overlooks the coastline & ocean.” Together with multiple COASTL view codes in the MLS, this shows that Palehua Gardens offers units with coastline vistas that buyers may specifically be seeking.

At least 2 separate listings explicitly mention sunset/sun setting (quotes include “watching the sunset with this incredible backdrop” and “watching the sunrise and sun setting”), and many listings note ocean/west-facing panoramic views from lanais and elevated locations. While MLS view_descriptions currently show 0/20 with SUNSET, the repeated sunset wording in multiple public remarks suggests some units provide sunset views — evidence is moderate rather than overwhelming, so confidence is set to 0.75.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases like 'watch fireworks from lanai,' 'fireworks view,' or 'see fireworks from the unit.' The remarks discuss ocean, Diamond Head, city, and coastline views, but do not mention fireworks views from the building.

8 of 20 current MLS listings include the RESMAN amenity checkbox, but across the consolidated public remarks there are zero mentions of a "resident manager", "on-site manager", or "live-in manager." The checklist presence suggests some agents indicated a resident manager, but the lack of any explicit remark support and known agent copy/paste behavior make this only moderately supported.

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.
