The Ritz-Carlton Residences
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.

The remarks were searched for explicit owner-occupancy percentages and descriptions such as "majority owner occupied" and "highly owner occupied." No owner-occupancy information was found, so the current value of 5.00 is retained with low confidence.
The remarks were searched for numeric and spelled-out elevator references, including phrases such as "4 elevators," "five elevators," and "multiple elevators." No elevator information was found, so the current value of 5 is retained with low confidence.
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.
0 listings explicitly mention central air conditioning being included in the fees. Only 6 of 20 MLS records contain ACCEN, suggesting inconsistent checkbox usage rather than strong building-wide evidence.
CABTV appears in 18 of 20 current listings, while no public remarks explicitly state that cable TV is included in the maintenance fee. The consistency across nearly all listings provides strong evidence, although the checkbox data may be partly copied between listings.
No listings specifically mention common-area electricity, common electric, or building power being included. OTCOEX appears in 10 of 20 current MLS records, which is moderate evidence but less consistent than the other fee inclusions and may reflect varying agent data entry.

Ten of 20 current MLS listings mark HOTWAT as included, but public remarks do not contain phrases such as "hot water included." One listing marks WTRHTR, which conflicts with building-supplied hot water and suggests some MLS entries may be inaccurate or unit-specific.
No public remarks explicitly say that internet or Wi-Fi is included in the maintenance fee. Nevertheless, INTSER appears in 19 of 20 current listings, providing strong and consistent MLS evidence across the building, although the checkbox language is not independently confirmed in remarks.
Only 1 of 20 MLS entries lists MARINA, and none of the extensive public remarks mention marina access, boat slips, or related services. The scarcity of checklist entries combined with no textual confirmation across many agent remarks makes it highly likely that marina fees/access are not an included building feature.
SEWER appears in 19 of 20 current listings, with no public remarks specifically discussing sewer charges. The feature is supported consistently across nearly the entire listing set, though some checkbox repetition may be present.
No public remarks explicitly state that water is included in the maintenance fee. WATER appears in 19 of 20 current MLS records, providing strong, repeated evidence across listings, though it is based on MLS checkbox data rather than explicit agent descriptions.
BBQ is mentioned in a few listings, but the clearest references are penthouse-specific, such as a “built-in BBQ” and “built-in BBQ grill” on the private rooftop deck. Because the evidence appears concentrated in exclusive penthouse remarks rather than a shared amenity, confidence is high that BBQ exists for at least some units, but it may not be a common building-wide facility.

Well over 18 listings explicitly mention concierge or concierge service, with repeated phrases such as "dedicated concierge," "concierge assistance," and "24-hour concierge." The evidence is strong across many listing descriptions and consistently confirms a building-level concierge service.
No analysis available
4 of 20 MLS listings currently have the 'doorman' amenity checked, but none of the public remarks use terms like 'doorman', 'door attendant', or 'lobby attendant' (remarks instead mention 'bell service', 'valet', and concierge). Given the low checkbox prevalence and no supporting remarks, doorman is included only with low confidence — possibly an agent checkbox inconsistency.
Exercise facilities are confirmed across the building, with 20/20 current MLS listings carrying the amenity. Public remarks repeatedly cite phrases such as “fitness center,” “fitness room,” “gym,” and “top of the line cardiovascular machines & weights,” indicating strong multi-agent confirmation rather than a single copied description.
Listings consistently advertise valet parking/valet service but none of the public remarks describe a limo/house car or chauffeur service; the single MLS checkbox appears unsupported by the remarks and likely reflects checkbox inconsistency.
Meeting or conference facilities are supported by 9/20 current MLS listings and several explicit public remarks. Key phrases include “meeting rooms,” “business-conference center,” and “entertaining rooms,” with evidence appearing across different listing descriptions.
Outdoor space is strongly confirmed across many listings from multiple agents, with well over 20 remarks mentioning a lanai, balcony, deck, or similar feature. Examples include "private lanai," "84 sq ft ocean-view lanai," "spacious covered lanai," and "1,629 sq ft private deck"; although some decks are penthouse-specific, numerous non-penthouse units also have lanais or balconies.
Little-to-no evidence: only 2 of 20 MLS listings mark a jogging/walking path and none of the public remarks mention "jogging path" or "walking path." With no remark confirmation, the feature is unlikely to exist as a building amenity.
No analysis available
No support in remarks for private yard: despite 2/20 MLS checkbox entries for PRIYAR, zero public remarks reference private or fenced yard space. Given absence of any descriptive mentions across listings and the likelihood of copy/paste checkbox errors, private yard should be omitted.
There is no textual support in the remarks for a putting green, and the MLS checkbox appears only once. This looks like a likely checkbox anomaly rather than a confirmed amenity.
The recreation-area feature is supported by 5/20 current MLS records but lacks clear public-remark confirmation. Because the current checkbox evidence is limited and the prior confidence was medium, this should be treated as a tentative building amenity rather than strongly verified.
There is no clear public-remarks evidence of a dedicated recreation room in the building. While some listings mention vague items like "entertaining rooms" or meeting spaces, that is not the same as a recreation room. With only 2/20 MLS checkbox hits and no explicit confirmation, this is most likely not a true shared amenity.
On-site dining is overwhelmingly confirmed, with 20/20 current MLS records listing RESTAU. Numerous remarks identify “three on-site restaurants,” “Sushi Sho,” “La Vie,” “Quiora,” “Dean & Deluca,” and café or deli options, providing strong repeated confirmation.
No analysis available
Several listings directly mention “sauna,” including “spa with sauna,” “pools with saunas,” and “gym, sauna, whirlpool.” Although fewer listings mention it than the fitness or dining facilities, the explicit references across multiple listings confirm it as a shared building amenity.
No analysis available
The remarks mention nearby beaches, surfing, swimming, and water activities, but do not identify dedicated surfboard, board, surf, or bike-and-surfboard storage. No public-remark evidence supports this feature.
No analysis available
A trash-chute system is supported by 14/20 current MLS listings and prior high confidence. No supplied remarks explicitly say “trash chute,” but this operational building feature is commonly omitted from luxury marketing copy, so the repeated MLS evidence supports retaining it.
Valet is overwhelmingly confirmed across the building. Numerous listings explicitly state “valet parking,” “valet service,” “complimentary valet parking service for owners,” or “24-hour valet service,” appearing across studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units and multiple listing styles. The consistency across many remarks and the 20/20 MLS amenity presence strongly supports this as a building-level service rather than copied checkbox data alone.
No analysis available
Whirlpool access is strongly verified by both MLS and public remarks, with 16/20 current listings carrying the amenity. Independent descriptions repeatedly reference a “Jacuzzi spa,” “two whirlpools,” and “whirlpool,” although private penthouse rooftop spas are not needed to establish the shared building feature.
Pool access is repeatedly mentioned across numerous listings from multiple agents, often with specific descriptions such as 'two infinity-edge pools,' 'two resort-style pools,' and separate adult and family pools. This is consistent, building-level evidence rather than an isolated or apparent copy-paste checkbox, and the private penthouse pools do not affect the conclusion because the building also clearly has shared pools.
Eleven of 20 current listings include the HEAPOO amenity code, while 0 of 20 list HEATED in pool_features. Public remarks repeatedly confirm the building's shared pools but generally call them 'infinity pools,' 'resort-style pools,' or 'two sparkling pools' without explicitly stating that they are heated, so this remains supported but not high-confidence.
The remarks frequently mention infinity pools, adult-only pools, family pools, and resort-style pools. They do not describe any pool as salt water, saltwater, saline, or a salt pool.
In-unit laundry is strongly confirmed across the building: all 20 current listings include WASHER/DRYER, and numerous remarks from multiple listings explicitly state “in-unit washer and dryer,” “washer and dryer are in the unit,” or “washer & dryer inside.” The consistency across varied unit types and repeated detailed descriptions indicates a genuine building feature rather than an isolated or copied checkbox error.
No analysis available
The remarks consistently reference in-unit washer/dryer appliances and do not mention coin-operated, card-operated, paid, or fee-based community laundry. No public-remark evidence supports paid shared laundry.
The remarks repeatedly describe in-unit washers and dryers, but do not mention laundry rooms on every floor or floor-by-floor community laundry. No public-remark evidence supports this feature.
Parking is mentioned across numerous listings from multiple agents, with well over 20 remarks explicitly describing valet parking or complimentary/free valet parking for owners. The repeated references are consistent with a building-wide amenity rather than a single-unit claim, although some wording appears copied from standardized Ritz-Carlton marketing remarks.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Multiple listings describe valet parking, including complimentary valet parking for owners, and no listing identifies a deeded, owned, or assigned parking stall. The explicit “0-parking” statement strongly supports that parking is not deeded.
No analysis available
The listings consistently describe owner valet parking as complimentary or free. No separate monthly parking charge or parking rental amount is stated, so a numeric fee cannot be extracted.
Across the listings, the parking-related language is overwhelmingly about valet service: "valet parking," "complimentary valet parking for owners," and "free valet parking for owners." I did not find explicit references to guest or visitor parking, so the evidence is indirect and may be partly copy-paste from the same building marketing. The building clearly offers valet access, but guest parking itself is not directly verified in the remarks.
0 of 20 listings explicitly mention secured or gated parking, card access, or secure parking entry. Although many remarks reference valet parking, this is a service rather than evidence of a secured parking entrance; the SECENT checkbox appearing in only 2 of 20 listings is likely inconsistent MLS data.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings discuss valet parking extensively but contain no reference to a parking waitlist. Based on the absence of any waitlist language, this feature is not indicated.
No analysis available
The remarks mention concierge, valet, bell, housekeeping, and other luxury services. No listing establishes key-card access, fob access, card readers, or electronic building entry.
None of the provided remarks identify a security guard or on-site security personnel. The feature appears in 11 of 20 MLS amenity records, but without supporting language across the remarks this is insufficient to validate the building-level feature.
The remarks describe concierge, valet, housekeeping, bell service, and full-service residence staff. They do not mention security patrols, roving security, patrol service, or a patrolled building.
No analysis available
0 of 20 current listings explicitly mention central AC, central air, HVAC, or forced air. However, ACCEN/CENAC appears in 14 of 20 unit-feature records and ACCEN appears in inclusions for all 20 listings, which is strong and consistent building-level MLS evidence, though it may partly reflect copied checkbox data.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Concrete construction is consistently reported in all 20 current listings through the CONCRE construction-material code. No public remarks explicitly say "concrete construction" or "reinforced concrete," but the complete consistency across listings makes this strong building-level evidence.
Only 3 of 20 current listings report the DOUWAL construction-material code. None of the supplied public remarks mention double-wall construction, so evidence is limited and not corroborated across multiple agents; this feature should be treated cautiously.
No analysis available
Only 1 of 20 current MLS listings marks construction_materials='MASSTU' and none of the public remarks mention masonry or stucco. With no historical support and overwhelming absence in remarks and checkboxes, the single occurrence appears to be an outlier (likely copy/paste), so masonry/stucco is omitted for the building.
Steel-frame construction is not validated: only 2 of 20 listings carry the STEFRA code and none of the remarks mention steel framing or provide supporting construction details. Because prior confidence was low and the checkbox evidence is sparse, this feature should be omitted from trusted building attributes rather than treated as confirmed.
Insufficient evidence for a slab foundation: only 3/20 listings mark 'SLAB' and none of the public remarks reference 'concrete slab' or similar. Given the lack of corroborating remarks and minimal MLS checkbox presence, slab foundation is not confirmed by the public text.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The ABOGRO code appears in 3 of 20 current listings, and no supplied remarks contain phrases such as "above ground construction" or "above ground building." Because the evidence is sparse and lacks remark confirmation, it may reflect inconsistent or copied MLS checkbox data.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The building clearly permits short-term rental participation through the Ritz-Carlton hotel rental program. Although some individual units are owner-use-only or not currently enrolled, the building-level remarks establish that short-term rentals are allowed.
The building participates in a Ritz-Carlton hotel rental program and rental pool. Listings describe both current participation and eligibility to join, confirming that the hotel pool exists.
Hotel rental pool participation is not mandatory. Multiple listings document owner-use-only units, units outside the rental pool, and optional enrollment, directly contradicting any requirement that all units participate.

The remarks were searched for leasehold and ground-lease language, including specific expiration or renewal years. No applicable lease-expiry information was found, so the year is unknown.
The public remarks were searched for explicit VA-related terms, including “VA approved,” “VA financing,” and “VA loans accepted.” None were found, so VA approval cannot be confirmed from the listings.
The remarks were searched for "fully insured," "full insurance," comprehensive building insurance, fully covered insurance, and walls-in coverage. No qualifying insurance statement was found, so full HOA insurance coverage is not established.
One current listing explicitly mentions "in-unit sprinklers," while 6 of 20 current MLS listings mark FIRSPR. Although the checkbox appears inconsistently across listings, the explicit remark and strong historical support confirm fire sprinklers as a building feature.
The remarks were searched for references to a passed fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE passage, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed fire inspection. No qualifying statement was found, so this feature is not established from the remarks.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

All 20 of 20 current listings mention ocean views, with repeated explicit phrases such as “Pacific Ocean views,” “panoramic ocean views,” “premium ocean views,” and “breathtaking ocean views.” The evidence is strong across numerous listings and agents, confirming that the building offers ocean-view units rather than reflecting a single copied remark.
Several listings mention mountain/mauka or Diamond Head views (examples: "majestic mountain (Mauka)", "sweeping panoramic views of the ocean, Diamond Head, and the city skyline"). The evidence is moderately strong across multiple listings, indicating the building offers mountain-facing units.
Three current listings specifically mention Diamond Head, including "breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Diamond Head" and "sweeping views ... [of] Diamond Head." Although less universal than ocean views, these explicit descriptions confirm that the building offers units with Diamond Head views.
City views are identified in 15 of 20 current MLS listings, including phrases such as “ocean and city view,” “Waikiki city views,” “city lights,” and “Honolulu skyline.” The repeated references across studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms, and penthouses provide strong evidence that city-view units are offered in the building.
Coastline views are mentioned in 5 of 20 current listings, including explicit phrases such as "breathtaking coastline views" and "beautiful shoreline views." This is less common than general ocean-view language but is sufficiently explicit and repeated to confirm that some building units offer coastline views.
Garden-style views are indirectly but consistently supported through repeated references to Fort DeRussy Park, 'park views,' and 'green park vistas.' While the MLS checkbox frequency is lower than ocean or city, the remarks repeatedly confirm these park/garden-facing outlooks across multiple listings. This looks like a genuine building offering rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
No supporting evidence: none of the listing remarks mention 'marina', 'harbor', 'yacht harbor', or similar terms, and MLS checkbox data shows 0/20 with MARCAN. Given lack of historical support and no remarks, high-confidence correction sets view_marina = false.
No analysis available
Sunset or sunset-related views are mentioned in 16 of 20 current listings, including "watch the sunset and Friday night fireworks," "Waikiki's spectacular sunsets," and "breathtaking views of the ocean, sunsets, parks, and city lights." The repeated explicit references across multiple unit types and agents provide strong evidence that the building offers residences with sunset views.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly state that Friday night fireworks are visible from units, private lanais, or balconies. This is repeated across studios and larger residences, providing overwhelming direct evidence.

Eight of 20 current listings check RESMAN, but public remarks do not plainly identify a resident manager. References to full-time Ritz-Carlton staff, concierge, housekeeping, and a dedicated Residence Team provide only indirect support, so confidence remains moderate and may reflect copied MLS checkbox data.
