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.

Year Built
1963

No analysis available

Floors
23
High

MLS listings reach floor 23, with 95/103 floor fields agreeing with unit-number floors, and the county records 23 floors. No penthouse listings are present, but the available evidence supports 23.

Total Units
589
High

The county's reconciled unit count and residential CPR count both report 589, and the parcel contains only one building record. The stored value is supported.

Owner Occupancy
—
Low

The remarks mention suitability for owner-occupants, investors, renters, and tenants, and identify some units as tenant-occupied. However, they provide no building-wide owner-occupancy percentage, so the value remains unknown.

Elevators
2
High

The remarks directly confirm two elevators in each tower, matching the current value of 2. Additional remarks reference secured elevator entry and parking near the elevators, but do not contradict the stated count.

Association Fee Low
$671
High

Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee High
$1,460
High

Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee (Penthouse)
—
High

Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Fee Includes Central AC
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Cable
Yes
High

Cable TV inclusion is supported by multiple listings across the building, with several remarks explicitly saying maintenance fees include cable TV or listing a separate cable charge bundled into the fee. The evidence appears consistent across different agents and towers, suggesting a building-level feature rather than a one-off copy/paste error.

Fee Includes Common
Yes
High

At least 14/20 current listings include OTCOEX, with explicit remarks such as "Maintenance fee includes water, sewer, & common area expenses" and "hot water, water, sewer, tv cable and other common area expenses." This is supported across multiple listings and agents, although unit electricity is generally sub-metered and billed separately.

Fee Includes Coop Taxes
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Electricity
No
High

Most listings and remarks state unit electricity is sub‑metered and billed to owners (many explicit lines: "Electricity is sub-metered" / "billed monthly to owner"), and only a very small number claim electricity is included. MLS checkbox count (1/20) and widespread submeter notes indicate unit electricity is not included in maintenance fees for this building.

Fee Includes Gas
No
High

I do not see evidence that gas is included in the HOA/maintenance fees. The remarks consistently discuss water, sewer, hot water, and electricity, but gas is not mentioned, and the MLS indicator is sparse at 2/20 listings.

Fee Includes Hot Water
Yes
High

Hot water is strongly supported by 13/20 current MLS records and repeated remarks including "maintenance fees include water, sewer, hot water" and "maintenance fee includes hot water, water, sewer, tv cable." Although 2/20 listings contain WTRHTR, the broader evidence across multiple agents confirms building-supplied hot water is generally included.

Fee Includes Internet
No
High

Internet inclusion is not consistently supported: only 1 of 20 current listings checks INTSER, and no remark explicitly says "internet included" or "internet in HOA." The reference to high-speed fiber and common-area WiFi appears to describe availability rather than a fee-included service, so this is omitted as a likely MLS checkbox error.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

Sewer is included in 13/20 current MLS records and is explicitly described in several remarks, including "Maintenance fees include water, sewer, hot water" and "Maintenance fee includes water, sewer and cable." The evidence is repeated across different listings and strongly confirms inclusion.

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

Water is included in 14/20 current MLS records, with repeated remarks such as "Maintenance fees include water, sewer, hot water" and "Maintenance Fee includes water, sewer, & common area expenses." The consistency across many listings and towers provides strong confirmation.

Bbq
Yes
High

BBQ amenities are confirmed across essentially all listings, with repeated references to 8 BBQ areas, grilling stations, charcoal grills, and picnic sites. The consistency across many remarks and the 20/20 MLS presence indicates a strong, building-wide amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.

Bike Storage
No

No analysis available

Boat Dock
No

No analysis available

Car Wash
No
High

There is no corroborating remark evidence for a car wash facility in this building. Despite a small amount of MLS checkbox support, the current remarks repeatedly describe other shared amenities and never reference a car wash, auto wash, or wash station. This looks like a likely MLS data error or unchecked copy-paste entry.

Club House
Yes
High

The property offers clubhouse-like shared facilities, with multiple listings mentioning tea houses for private gatherings, conference or meeting rooms, and community/social rooms. Although the exact word "clubhouse" is uncommon, the historical high confidence and repeated descriptions support including the feature.

Concierge
No

No analysis available

Dog Park
Yes
High

Several listings confirm a designated pet area rather than merely allowing pets, using phrases such as "dog-walking area," "dog walking path," and "dog walking with dog waste bins." This satisfies the broader pet-area definition, though evidence is less universal than for BBQ or paths.

Doorman
No
High

There is no meaningful remark-level evidence that the building has a doorman or lobby attendant. The only MLS signal is 1/20 listings with DOORMA, while the remarks repeatedly focus on security personnel and never mention a doorman, so this feature is best treated as absent.

Exercise Room
No

No analysis available

Limo Service
No

No analysis available

Meeting Room
Yes
High

Multiple listings directly reference a "conference room," "conference/meeting rooms," "meeting room and mini-library," or "conference and social rooms." The repeated detailed descriptions across different listings confirm that residents have access to meeting or conference facilities.

Patio Deck
Yes
High

Numerous listings explicitly mention private outdoor space, including “spacious covered lanai,” “enclosed lanai,” “private lanai,” “balcony,” and a “110 SF lanai.” The feature is confirmed across many different listings and agents, not merely by checkbox data, so Queen Emma Gardens should retain patio/deck as a building-supported feature.

Path Jogging
Yes
High

Walking and jogging paths are documented in at least 18 listings, with repeated phrases including "walking/jogging paths," "strolling paths," and "1/3 mile jogging path." The high MLS frequency and consistent independent remarks make this a well-established building amenity.

Playground
No

No analysis available

Private Yard
No

No analysis available

Putting Green
No
High

No listing remarks mention a "putting green," "golf putting green," or related practice area despite extensive descriptions of the property's amenities. The lone current MLS checkbox entry lacks corroboration and should be treated as incorrect unless independently verified.

Recreation Area
Yes
High

The listings repeatedly describe shared recreation spaces, including an explicit "recreation area with a full kitchen," "recreation areas," a "large recreation area," and an "amenity deck with swimming pools." These references are consistent with the property's extensive common grounds and appear across multiple agents.

Recreation Room
Yes
High

At least 6 listings identify recreation or shared social spaces, including "recreation areas," "conference and social rooms," "Cards Social Room," and a "large recreation area." The repeated descriptions across different listings support a shared recreation-room amenity.

Restaurant
No

No analysis available

Rooftop
No

No analysis available

Sauna
No

No analysis available

Storage Unit
Yes
High

At least 5 current listings explicitly mention building storage availability or rentable storage, including "if available, storage units for rent" and "storage lockers available for rent." Several additional listings describe unit-level storage, such as "extra storage," a "high ceiling storage" area, and a "spacious storage closet," confirming that storage is offered across the building rather than appearing as isolated copy-paste.

Surfboard Storage
No
Low

The listings mention general storage lockers, extra storage, and bicycle parking in some places. They do not specifically identify surfboard or board storage facilities.

Tennis Court
No

No analysis available

Trash Chute
Yes
High

Trash chutes are directly confirmed in multiple remarks, including "trash chute access" and "Each tower offers laundry room, trash chute." Combined with the 19/20 current MLS rate, the evidence strongly supports a building-wide trash chute system.

Valet
No

No analysis available

Wall Fence
No

No analysis available

Whirlpool
No
High

No listing remarks support a whirlpool or hot tub amenity. Across many remarks, the building is described with swimming pools, kiddie pools, wading pools, and tea houses, but never with a spa, jacuzzi, or hot tub. Based on the repeated absence of any such mention, this feature appears not to exist despite the prior MLS checkbox signal.

Pool
Yes
High

The pool feature is strongly validated across the building: well over 20 current remarks mention pools, including “two swimming pools,” “adult swimming pool,” “lap pool,” “swimming and wading pools,” and “pool and kiddie pool.” These descriptions appear across numerous listings and towers, not merely a single copied remark, and align with the 19/20 current MLS amenity records.

Pool Heated
No

No analysis available

Pool Salt
No
Low

Multiple listings confirm adult, lap, swimming, and kiddie pools. Searches for saltwater or saline pool terminology found no evidence that the pool is salt water.

Laundry In Unit
No
Low

There is only one current listing indicating in-unit laundry, and none of the remarks explicitly say 'washer/dryer in unit,' 'in-unit laundry,' or similar. Because the evidence is sparse and not reinforced across multiple agents or remarks, confidence is low that this is a building-wide or commonly available feature.

Community Laundry
Yes
High

Community/shared laundry is confirmed across many independent listings, with well over 15 listings mentioning it or clearly describing laundry rooms in each tower. Key phrases include “community laundry facilities,” “large community laundry rooms,” “there are laundry rooms in each tower,” and “community laundry area in each Tower,” making this strong building-level evidence rather than an isolated checkbox or copy-paste error.

Community Laundry Paid
No
Low

The remarks clearly describe community laundry facilities. Searches for coin laundry, laundry fees, quarters, card-operated laundry, and other payment requirements found no evidence that residents must pay.

Community Laundry Every Floor
Yes
Low

Community laundry is repeatedly confirmed, including statements such as "There are laundry rooms in each tower" and "Community laundry area in each Tower." The remarks do not establish floor-by-floor laundry, so the stricter every-floor feature is not confirmed.

Parking
Yes
High

Parking is clearly a building-level feature. Across the remarks, dozens of listings mention parking in some form, including phrases like "1 covered parking," "assigned covered parking stall," "2 covered parking stalls," and "1 indoor garage parking." The evidence is consistent across many agents and towers, so confidence is very high.

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

Assigned parking is strongly confirmed across many independent listings, well beyond the historical high-confidence evidence. Numerous remarks explicitly state “assigned,” “covered assigned,” “assigned tandem,” or “reserved parking,” so this is a reliable building feature rather than an isolated checkbox or copy-paste error.

Parking Covered
Yes
High

Covered parking is consistently documented across many listings and agents, including explicit references to one or two covered stalls, indoor garage parking, underground parking structures, and a parking garage. The repeated detailed remarks strongly confirm that the building offers covered parking.

Parking Deeded
No
Low

The listings consistently mention parking stalls, including assigned and covered stalls, but do not use deeded-parking language. Parking therefore cannot be confirmed as deeded from the public remarks.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
—
Low

Remarks describe included, assigned, covered, tandem, garage, resident, and guest parking. Searches for a recurring parking charge found no evidence of a parking fee.

Parking Guest
Yes
High

Guest parking is consistently described throughout the listings, with repeated phrases such as “ample guest parking,” “guest parking is available for visitors,” and “lots of visitor parking.” The feature is supported across many listings and appears to be a genuine building amenity rather than an isolated checkbox.

Parking Secured Entry
Yes
High

Secured access is explicitly or strongly implied in multiple listings through references to FOB-controlled entry, fob-secured elevators, security cameras, and secured entry. Only 3 of 20 current MLS records explicitly mark the feature, and some remarks describe general building security rather than the garage specifically, but the historical high-confidence evidence and repeated access-control references support inclusion.

Parking Tandem
Yes
High

Tandem parking is clearly offered for some units and should be retained as a building feature. Several listings independently describe tandem stalls, including assigned covered tandem parking and two covered tandem spaces.

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

The listings frequently mention assigned resident parking and ample guest parking. None indicates that residents must join a waitlist to obtain parking.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

No analysis available

Security Card
Yes
High

Multiple listings directly confirm FOB-controlled building or elevator access. These repeated remarks provide strong evidence of a card/fob security system.

Security Guard
Yes
High

Security service is overwhelmingly documented across the building: well over 18 listings reference phrases such as “24-hour security,” “24/7 security,” “security patrol,” “on-site security,” or a security office staffed around the clock. Multiple remarks add operational detail, including “24/7 security patrol,” “security office equipped with closed-circuit cameras,” and “24/7 on site security and video,” confirming this is a building-wide amenity rather than an isolated copied checkbox.

Security Patrol
Yes
High

The remarks repeatedly describe security patrol service, including patrols of the grounds and 24-hour coverage. This directly supports the feature.

Security Video
No

No analysis available

Central AC
No

No analysis available

Split AC
No

No analysis available

Window AC
Yes
High

Window air conditioning is strongly supported across the building, with at least 7 listings explicitly mentioning window AC or individual room AC units. Key phrases include 'newer window A/C,' 'two bedrooms with window A/C units,' and 'window AC,' appearing across multiple listings rather than relying solely on a copied checkbox.

Concrete
Yes
High

The current MLS construction-materials field identifies concrete in 18 of 20 listings, indicating strong building-level support. Public remarks do not explicitly use phrases such as “concrete construction” or “reinforced concrete,” but the high prevalence and prior high confidence make this feature reliable.

Double Wall
Yes
Medium

Eight of 20 listings identify DOUWAL in the construction-materials field, but none of the provided remarks mention “double wall” or “double-wall construction.” The feature is included with moderate confidence, though the checkbox evidence may reflect copied MLS data rather than independently verified construction details.

Hollow Tile
No
High

Hollow tile construction is not evidenced in the public remarks and is effectively absent from the listing descriptions. The single MLS checkbox does not overcome the broad silence across the remarks.

Masonry/Stucco
No
Low

Zero public remarks mention masonry or stucco construction. Only 2 of 20 current MLS records contain MASSTU, which is weak, non-independent evidence and may reflect limited checkbox usage rather than confirmed building-wide construction.

Steel Frame
No
High

Steel frame construction is not supported by the public remarks, and only 1 of 20 current listings has the checkbox marked. The evidence looks like a one-off MLS data point or copy/paste error rather than a true building feature.

Slab
Yes
Medium

No provided listing remarks explicitly mention a “concrete slab” or “solid concrete foundation.” Only 3 of 20 listings mark SLAB, so current checkbox support is limited and may reflect inconsistent agent data; however, absent a verified correction or contradictory evidence, the previously established feature is retained.

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No

No analysis available

Above Ground
Yes
High

Above-ground construction/site development is strongly supported by the long-standing building description and the repeated references to extensive landscaped grounds, amenities, and tower structures. While only a small number of MLS listings currently check the box, the remarks consistently reinforce that this is an above-ground multi-building complex rather than a below-grade or subterranean-style building.

Brick
No
High

Brick construction is not supported by the public remarks and appears only once in the MLS data. The absence of any brick-related language across many listings suggests this is likely a copy/paste or checkbox error rather than a true building characteristic.

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
No
High

No listing states that short-term rentals, vacation rentals, NUCs, or TVUs are allowed. The repeated residential framing and references to long-term tenants support that STR is not allowed based on public remarks.

STR Hotel Pool
No
High

The listings characterize the property as a residential condominium with gardens, pools, security, and resident management. Because STR is not allowed based on the remarks, hotel-pool participation must also be false.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
High

No remarks state that owners must participate in a hotel pool or rental program. Since the public remarks do not support STR and identify the property as residential, mandatory hotel-pool participation is false.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
Yes

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
—
Low

Remarks were searched for leasehold, land lease, ground lease, expiration, expiry, and renewal dates. No four-digit lease-expiration year was mentioned, so the value remains unknown.

Financing V A
Yes
High

Several independent listings directly identify Queen Emma Gardens as VA approved. This is strong, repeated public-remark evidence that VA financing is permitted.

Insured Fully
Yes
High

Repeated public remarks confirm 100% hurricane insurance coverage for Queen Emma Gardens, including statements that the building is fully insured against hurricanes. This strongly supports the existing insured_fully value, although the remarks do not specifically use the term walls-in coverage.

Fire Sprinklers
No
Low

No listings explicitly mention fire sprinklers or a sprinkler system. Only 2 of 20 listings contain the FIRSPR amenity checkbox, with no supporting remarks, so the feature cannot be reliably confirmed.

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

The remarks were searched for FLSE, fire/life safety evaluation, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed fire inspection language. None was found, so there is no public-remark evidence that the evaluation has passed.

Flood Zone (Current)
X
High

Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Flood Zone (June 2026)
X

No analysis available

View: Ocean
Yes
High

Three of 20 current MLS listings mention ocean views, with phrases such as "partial ocean view," "slight ocean view," "panoramic views of the mountains, ocean," and "ocean as your backdrop." The repeated references across different units and towers strongly confirm that the building offers ocean-view residences.

View: Mountain
Yes
High

Mountain views are consistently documented across the listing set, with 13 of 20 current MLS records containing mountain-view language. Repeated remarks from multiple units and towers explicitly mention mountain, Punchbowl, Koolau, or panoramic mountain views, indicating this is a legitimate building-level offering rather than a single copied description.

View: Diamond Head
Yes
High

Multiple current listing remarks (approximately 15 listings) explicitly mention Diamond Head — phrases include 'breathtaking DH and partial ocean view', 'Views of Diamond Head from living area', and 'facing Diamond Head'. The Diamond Head references appear across different agent remarks and towers (Queen Tower/King Tower/Prince Tower), indicating consistent building-level availability rather than isolated copy-paste errors.

View: City
Yes
High

City views are strongly established, appearing in 17 of 20 current MLS records. The feature is supported by many explicit descriptions across different units and towers, including city, cityscape, downtown, and Honolulu skyline views, so it should be included as a building-level offering.

View: Coastline
Yes

No analysis available

View: Garden
Yes
High

Garden views are mentioned in 9 of 20 current listings, including "quiet garden view," "serene city and garden views," "overlooks the beautifully landscaped gardens," and views of koi ponds and Foster Botanical Gardens. These references occur across multiple towers and units, confirming that garden-view residences are available in the building.

View: Golf Course
No

No analysis available

View: Marina
No

No analysis available

View: Sunrise
Yes
Medium

Sunrise-oriented views/exposure appear in a minority of listings, but they are mentioned consistently enough to support the feature at the building level. The strongest evidence comes from remarks describing units on the "preferred east-facing side" and references to avoiding afternoon heat, which aligns with morning sun and sunrise views. This looks like a real partial-building feature rather than copy-paste noise.

View: Sunset
Yes
High

Sunset views are explicitly documented in 4 of 20 current MLS listings, including detailed references to sunset panoramas and mountain/sunset/city combinations. Although less common than city or mountain views and likely dependent on unit orientation and floor, the repeated explicit remarks confirm that the building offers units with sunset views.

View: Cemetery
No

No analysis available

Fireworks View
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly state that units have views of Hilton Hotel fireworks every Friday. This satisfies the requirement for fireworks views from units.

Frontage Type
Ocean

No analysis available

Pets Allowed
No

No analysis available

Resident Manager
Yes
High

At least 16 of 20 current listings include RESMAN, and numerous independent remarks explicitly describe an “on-site resident manager,” “Resident Manager is onsite,” or “resident manager and staff on site.” The consistency across many agents and repeated detailed references confirms that Queen Emma Gardens has resident management, rather than this being an isolated copied checkbox.

Condotel
No

No analysis available

Coop
No

No analysis available

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.
