Plaza Hawaii Kai
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 searched for explicit owner-occupancy percentages and descriptive phrases like "majority owner occupied" or "highly owner occupied." The remarks do not provide any such figure or clear occupancy statement, so the percentage remains unknown.
I looked for explicit counts such as "4 elevators," "multiple elevators," or a written elevator total, but none were provided in the remarks. The listings only confirm that the building has at least one elevator serving the tower, which is not enough to determine the number.

Most current listings (18 of 20) indicate common area electricity is included, which is strong building-level MLS evidence. The remarks across agents focus on amenities, plumbing, and parking, and do not contradict the checkbox data. This appears to be a stable building feature rather than a copy-paste anomaly.

MLS history indicates hot water was included in maintenance for 16 of 20 listings (HOTWAT). Public remarks reference plumbing/re-piping projects (“replumbing is completed”, “plumbing replacement project is already completed”) but do not explicitly state hot water is excluded or that units have individual water heaters. Evidence is moderate and appears consistent across multiple agent listings, but lacks explicit confirmation in remarks.

Seventeen of twenty current listings include sewer in association fees, and several remarks mention completed replumbing, plumbing updates, or plumbing assessments paid in full. That repeated plumbing context supports the MLS checkbox data even though agents rarely state 'sewer included' outright. Overall confidence is high but slightly below the water/common-area evidence because the remarks are indirect.
All 20 current listings indicate water is included in association fees, making this the strongest of the three features. The remarks repeatedly reference building replumbing and plumbing assessments, which aligns with water service being handled at the building level. There is no sign of a recent change or correction, so confidence is very high.
BBQ/grilling facilities are clearly part of the building amenities. The remarks repeatedly cite "BBQ areas," "barbecue," "BBQ area," and "BBQ grills," appearing in many separate listings rather than a single agent note. This aligns with the MLS data showing BBQ checked in all current listings.

Strong evidence: 19/20 listings have the car wash checkbox and several public remarks explicitly reference 'car wash area' or 'car-wash spaces'. The combination of widespread MLS checks and corroborating remarks across listings provides high confidence the building offers car wash facilities.

This building clearly has an exercise/fitness amenity. Across the provided remarks, at least 10+ listings mention phrases like "fitness center," "fitness room," "exercise room," and "24 hour exercise room," often alongside the same amenity package. The consistency across multiple listings strongly supports that this is a real shared building feature.

Multiple listings mention outdoor spaces for the building, including phrases like "TWO LANAIS," "pleasing lanai," "very usable lanai," "screened in lanai," "two lush patios," and "private front porch." The evidence appears consistent across many agents and units, suggesting this is a real building feature rather than a copy-paste MLS error.

There is solid evidence for a shared recreation area, though the MLS checkbox appears inconsistent. Multiple remarks mention a "recreation room," "community meeting room," "community center," and "hobby room," indicating a common amenity space available to residents. Because these references recur across several listings, this looks like a real building feature rather than a one-off agent description.
Good evidence: 12/20 listings have the RECROO checkbox and several public remarks explicitly mention 'recreation room', 'meeting/social room', 'community meeting room' or 'hobby room'. These mentions appear in multiple listings, indicating a shared building amenity available to buyers.

Strong evidence that Plaza Hawaii Kai offers building storage: roughly 12–15 of the provided listing remarks explicitly mention storage (phrases include “storage locker,” “storage unit,” “extra storage locker,” and “storage unit #10”). Mentions appear across many different listings/agents (not isolated to a single copy/paste source), providing consistent, building-level confirmation.
I searched for 'surfboard storage,' 'board storage,' 'surf storage,' and similar phrases. The remarks mention storage lockers and secured storage rooms, but no surfboard-specific storage amenity.
No analysis available
Mixed evidence: although 14/20 MLS listings show the TRACHU checkbox, the public remarks supplied do not mention any trash/garbage chute. Because this feature lacks corroborating remarks and could be an agent checkbox copy/paste, it is not included without direct verification — please confirm with management or an owner if this amenity is required.

Pool is strongly supported at the building level. Across well over 20 listing remarks, multiple agents mention it explicitly, with several calling it a 'saltwater pool' and others describing it as part of the resort-style amenity package. The consistency across remarks suggests this is a real shared building amenity, not a copy-paste error.
No analysis available
The remarks directly identify the amenity as a saltwater pool several times. This is strong explicit evidence that the building's pool is salt water.
Strong building-level evidence that Plaza Hawaii Kai offers in-unit laundry. Multiple listings explicitly say "washer/dryer in unit" or similar, and the pattern appears across many different remarks rather than a single copy-paste source. This aligns with the existing MLS data showing washer/dryer included in 18 of 20 listings.
No analysis available
I looked for terms such as 'coin laundry,' 'coin-op,' 'quarters,' 'card operated,' and 'laundry fee.' The remarks consistently reference in-unit washer/dryer instead, with no evidence of a paid shared laundry room.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor,' 'laundry room on every floor,' and 'floor-by-floor laundry.' The listings mention in-unit washer/dryer and laundry appliances in units, but nothing about community laundry facilities on every floor.
All 20 current listings include parking in the MLS checkboxes and numerous remarks state parking is provided (quotes: "Two parking stalls", "lots of guest parking", "side-by-side parking stalls"). Evidence is consistent across many agents and unit types, indicating the building offers parking.
Assigned parking is strongly supported across many listings, with numerous remarks explicitly saying "assigned," "reserved," or "deeded"-style stall arrangements. Multiple agents describe side-by-side stalls and designated locations near the building entrance, which looks consistent rather than a copy-paste error.
Covered parking is confirmed very consistently across the listings, with explicit references in many remarks to covered stalls, parking garage spaces, and full-size side-by-side covered parking. The evidence is broad and repeated by multiple listings, so this is very strong building-level support.
The listings consistently show parking as included with the unit and assigned to the owner, which is consistent with deeded parking. I did not find wording suggesting leased or separately rented parking stalls.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for parking fee, monthly parking cost, rental rate, and similar language. The listings only mention covered/assigned stalls and convenience near the lobby, with no separate parking charge identified.
Guest parking is clearly available at the building based on many listings, with multiple agents independently mentioning lots/plenty of guest parking and even a listing citing "18 guest parking" spaces. This appears to be consistent building information rather than an isolated remark.

I looked for phrases like parking waitlist, waiting list, or join waitlist for parking and found nothing. Based on the remarks available, there is no evidence that the building uses a parking waitlist system.
No analysis available
I searched for security-access terms such as 'key card access,' 'fob access,' 'card reader,' and 'keycard entry.' The remarks mention a secured building, security guard/patrol, and video security, but nothing about a card/fob access system.
Security guard service is strongly supported across the listings. At least several remarks explicitly mention "security guard/patrol," "security," "secured building," and "security video," which aligns with the high-confidence MLS checkbox history (17/20 current listings). The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents and is not limited to a single remark.
The public remarks directly reference patrol-based security, including 'security guard/patrol' and 'security patrol.' This is clear evidence that the building has security patrol service.

Across the provided listings, 0 explicitly mention window AC or window units. Multiple agents instead describe central AC, built-in AC, or split AC, which points away from window air conditioners being a building feature. The limited MLS checkbox activity appears inconsistent with the remarks and likely reflects copy-paste or data-entry error.
Evidence is very strong that this building is constructed with concrete. Current MLS data lists CONCRE in 17 of 20 listings, and multiple remarks describe it as a "concrete hi-rise" or high-rise building. This looks consistent across listings and not like a one-off agent typo.

I searched for short-term rental, vacation rental, TVU, NUC, 30-day minimum, and similar terms, but found no explicit indication that STRs are allowed. Because there is no affirmative STR language in the remarks, I mark it as not allowed/unsupported from the public remarks.
I looked for hotel pool, hotel rental program, managed-by-hotel, and brand-pool references and found none. Since the remarks do not show STR permission, there is also no basis for a hotel rental pool here.
I searched for mandatory participation language such as required rental program, cannot opt out, or must be in the pool, and found nothing. The remarks do not show any hotel-pool structure, much less a mandatory one.

No analysis available
I looked for any ground lease or lease-expiry language such as "lease expires," "ground lease ends," or a 4-digit expiration year. Instead, the listings consistently identify the property as fee simple, so there is no lease expiry year to extract.
The public remarks directly state that the building is VA approved, which is strong and repeated evidence. I did not find any conflicting language suggesting VA financing is not accepted.
I looked for wording indicating full HOA insurance coverage such as "fully insured," "full insurance," or "walls-in coverage." The remarks do not mention insurance coverage terms, so there is no evidence that the building is fully insured.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for phrases like "fire life safety evaluation passed," "FLSE passed," "fire safety certified," and "passed fire inspection." None of the listings mention any of these safety-evaluation outcomes, so there is no evidence to mark this true.

Strong evidence for ocean views: 14 of 20 listings list OCEAN in view_descriptions and the remarks repeatedly state phrases like 'ocean view', 'panoramic OCEAN views', and 'Maunalua Bay'. Multiple agents independently describe unobstructed ocean and seaside views, indicating this is a building-level offering rather than copy-paste error.
Strong evidence the building offers mountain views: historical MLS data shows 18 of 20 listings with mountain in the view field, and the public remarks repeatedly confirm this with phrases like "mountain views," "Koko Head Mountain," "cool mauka breezes," and "surrounding mountains." The consistency across many listings suggests this is a real building-level feature, not a copy-paste MLS error.
No analysis available
Moderate evidence for city views: 4 of 20 listings list CITY in view_descriptions and remarks include 'Partial marina & city views' in at least one listing. While less commonly reported than ocean/mountain/marina, some units do advertise city views, so buyers searching for city views may find suitable units.
MLS checkbox data includes COASTL in 5 of 20 listings, suggesting some agents flagged coastline views; however, the consolidated public remarks do not explicitly say 'coastline' or 'shoreline' (they use 'ocean'/'bay' instead). This provides moderate evidence the building may offer coastline-view units, but the evidence is less direct than for ocean/marina/mountain.
Moderate-to-strong evidence for garden/courtyard views: 5 of 20 listings list GARDEN in view_descriptions and several remarks mention 'garden', 'pleasant greenery views', 'courtyard', and 'surrounded by the landscaping', indicating that some units enjoy landscaped or courtyard views.
No analysis available
Strong evidence the building offers marina views: historical MLS data shows 16 of 20 listings with marina/harbor in the view field, and the remarks repeatedly say "marina views," "Hawaii Kai marina," "views across the Hawaii Kai Marina," and "soothing views across the Hawaii Kai Marina to Maunaloa Bay." This appears consistently across many listings and agents, supporting a true building-level marina view feature.
No analysis available
Good evidence for sunset/western-exposure views: several remarks explicitly advertise 'colorful sunsets', 'sunrise and sunset 180+ views', and references to evening light from the lanais. MLS view_descriptions include SUNSET in 2 of 20 listings, and the explicit language in multiple remarks indicates sunset views are available from some units.
No analysis available
I searched for direct statements that fireworks can be seen from the building or from lanais/units. The remarks discuss ocean, marina, mountain, and Diamond Head views, but do not mention fireworks views.

Strong evidence supports a resident manager at Plaza Hawaii Kai. Across several different listings, remarks explicitly mention "resident manager," "on-site manager," and "Res. Man. office located near the ... entrance," matching the historical MLS pattern where RESMAN was checked in 16 of 20 listings. This appears consistently across multiple agents and is not just a one-off remark.
