Royal Aloha
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.

Searched remarks for phrases like '24% owner occupied', 'owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied', or numeric owner-occupancy percentages and found none. Current value retained per rules; no corroborating evidence in remarks.
Searched the remarks for phrases like '2 elevators', 'elevators', 'four elevators' or numeric statements about elevators and found none. Current value retained from building context per rules; no corroborating evidence in 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.
Remarks on at least two separate listings specify that central A/C is a separately monitored and billed item: “Other fees please add separately monitored central A/C…,” clearly distinguishing it from what the association fee includes. With only 3 of 20 MLS entries marking ACCEN and strong textual evidence of separate billing, central A/C is not considered included in the maintenance fee.
Cable TV is listed as included in the HOA in 14 of 20 recent listings, and one detailed remark clearly notes that 'water, cable and Internet are included in the maintenance fee.' This aligns with prior high-confidence data and appears to be a consistent building-level inclusion rather than an agent copying error.
Public remarks explicitly group common area electricity with central A/C as an additional, separately billed charge: “Other fees please add separately monitored central A/C and common area electricity.” Although OTCOEX appears in about half of the MLS records, the clear language about separate fees indicates common area electricity is not truly included in the maintenance fee.

A majority of the current MLS listings (12/20) mark HOTWAT as included in the association fee, and no listings mention individual water heaters that would imply unit‑specific hot water. While remarks do not call out hot water explicitly, the consistent MLS checkbox data across many units indicates building-supplied hot water is included in the fees. This aligns with the previous high‑confidence assessment.
Internet is shown as part of the HOA in most current listings (12 of 20), and a key remark specifies that 'water, cable and Internet are included in the maintenance fee.' This strong combination of checkbox data and explicit description indicates internet is reliably included in the maintenance fees.
No analysis available
MLS association_fee_includes shows sewer for a clear majority of current listings (13 of 20), with no textual evidence that sewer is excluded or separately billed. Given prior high-confidence data and typical bundling of water/sewer in HOA utilities, sewer is very likely included in the maintenance fee.
Current MLS data shows water included in the association fees for the large majority of listings (14 of 20), consistent with prior high-confidence data. One listing explicitly notes that “water, cable and Internet are included in the maintenance fee,” and no listings suggest water is billed separately. This strongly supports that building maintenance fees include water.
Multiple distinct remarks describe 'a swimming pool and BBQ area', 'Resort Style Amenities, with Swimming Pool, BBQ and Lounge Area', and 'onsite laundry, BBQ area, and pool,' indicating a shared BBQ facility. Current MLS data shows 17 of 20 listings with BBQ in the amenities, suggesting this is not an agent error but a well-known building feature. The phrasing is similar across listings, likely from standard building descriptions, reinforcing that a common BBQ/grilling area is part of the amenities.

Many current listings explicitly mention outdoor spaces, including phrases like “private patio with outdoor seating,” “Private Lanai,” “open lanai overlooking the Ala Wai Canal,” and “Lanai overlooks the Pool area.” Combined with 13 of 20 listings checking the patio/deck amenity and prior high-confidence data, this strongly confirms that units in this building commonly offer lanais/patios. Buyers seeking condos with balconies or lanais would find this building suitable.

At least one listing clearly states the building includes a 'recreation room' in addition to the pool and BBQ area, while others mention a 'meeting room' or 'meeting area' as part of the amenity set. This consistent description of an indoor common room across multiple agents supports the presence of a shared recreation/meeting room in the building.

Several listings describe on-site storage, including 'additional storage at basement if available,' 'secure storage lockers in the basement,' and a unit conveyed with '1 storage unit.' These mentions span multiple listings and agents, and consistently refer to basement storage facilities. This provides strong evidence that the Royal Aloha offers storage units/lockers as a building amenity.
There is mention of storage units/lockers and additional basement storage, but I searched for surf/board-specific storage terms and found no explicit references in the public remarks.
No analysis available
The building is described as having 'Community Laundry and Trash on each floor,' indicating centralized trash handling on every level. In current MLS data, 16 of 20 listings have the trash chute amenity checked, aligning with prior high-confidence data rather than a one-off agent mistake. Although remarks rarely use the exact words 'trash chute', the consistent MLS coding across many listings strongly supports that a trash chute system serves the building.

Across these remarks, at least 16 separate listings from different agents explicitly mention a pool or swimming pool as a building amenity, using varied language such as 'resort-style amenities including a pool,' 'community pool,' and 'Lanai overlooks the Pool area.' The pool is repeatedly grouped with other stable common-area features like BBQ areas, lounge chairs, and meeting rooms, indicating a long-standing shared amenity rather than a listing error. Combined with MLS checkbox data (20/20 listings), the evidence strongly confirms that Royal Aloha has a building pool accessible to residents/guests.
No analysis available
Multiple listings reference a swimming pool and pool area, but I searched for 'saltwater', 'salt water', 'saline', and related terms and found no mentions indicating a salt pool.
No analysis available
Community laundry is definitively present and building-wide. Numerous listings explicitly describe 'community laundry on each floor and in the basement', onsite laundry, or a 'community laundry room with washer and dryer', and MLS data shows 14/20 listings checking this amenity. Evidence is strong and consistent across many different agents and time periods, confirming shared laundry as a core building feature.
Listings consistently note community laundry on every floor and in the basement. I searched for terms like 'coin', 'coin-op', 'quarters', 'card', and 'paid laundry' and found none, so no evidence laundry requires payment in the public remarks.
Remarks consistently confirm community laundry facilities on every floor, often with additional machines in the basement/ground floor. This matches numerous recent descriptions across different listings and is highly reliable.
Multiple listings (at least 8–10) explicitly mention on-site covered or assigned parking stalls (e.g., 'one covered PARKING space in the LL', 'Modern and updated 1 bedroom... Come w/ One (1) Covered parking stall on lobby level', 'Comes with 1 assigned parking stall & 1 storage unit'). Several listings note that some units have no parking or rent stalls nearby (e.g., '2 bedroom 1 bathroom at Royal Aloha. No parking.', 'Can rent parking stall from Land Mark across the street'), indicating that parking is available for some but not all units. Overall, both historical data and current remarks confirm that the building offers on-site parking options.
Multiple listings describe units as including a specific parking stall, and one explicitly notes '1 assigned parking stall & 1 storage unit,' confirming that some stalls are reserved/assigned. MLS data (5 of 20 listings marked ASSIGN) supports this pattern rather than random/open parking. While some units have 'no parking' or rent offsite stalls, the building clearly offers assigned stalls for at least some units.
At least six different listings clearly describe covered parking within Royal Aloha (e.g., 'One (1) Covered parking stall on lobby level,' 'one covered PARKING space in the LL,' '1 covered secured parking stall'). Another listing notes 'two covered and secured parking garages,' confirming that the building’s parking is structurally covered. Even though some units lack stalls, buyers can find units in this building with covered parking.
Several listings specify that a particular covered or assigned parking stall is included with the unit, and one clearly notes that both 'unit and stall' are sold together, implying ownership of the stall with the condo. While not every unit has parking, when present it appears to be a deeded/owned stall rather than purely rented from the association.

The building is described as secured with on-site management and a security gate in some unit descriptions, but there is no explicit mention of card/fob/keycard access in the public remarks.
Across all provided listings, remarks refer to a 'secured building', 'secure building', 'secured parking', and a 'security gate', but none mention a security guard, 24-hour security, lobby staff, or on-site security personnel, even when detailing amenities. One listing’s vague phrase 'pool, BBQ area, and security' is isolated and not supported by more specific guard-related language. Combined with historical data that also found no explicit references, the evidence indicates the building is access-controlled but does not offer dedicated security guard service.
Listings mention on-site management and secured building features but do not indicate the presence of a security patrol or roving security service; searches for 'patrol' and related terms returned no evidence.
No analysis available
Multiple independent listings explicitly describe central air, including phrases like 'central A/C,' 'building central AC system to all rooms,' and 'separately monitored central A/C,' across at least 9 different units. This aligns with MLS data showing many units marked with central AC-related inclusions, indicating a building-wide central HVAC system serving the condos. Given consistent mentions by different agents over time, central AC is a confirmed building feature.
Multiple listings for Royal Aloha indicate the presence of split AC systems, with one unit described as having a 'split AC system' and another noting a 'New SPLIT AC unit in the living room plus building central AC system to all rooms.' Although most other remarks reference central AC or portable units, the explicit split AC mentions from different agents and the ACSPL checkbox on 2/20 listings provide strong evidence that at least some units in this building have ductless mini-split systems. Buyers seeking split AC options would therefore find this building relevant.
Across all provided remarks, no listing explicitly mentions window or wall AC units, even in units where AC and renovations are discussed in detail. A few MLS checkboxes flag ACWIUN, but with no remark support and strong, repeated emphasis on central AC instead, this is likely agent miscoding rather than evidence of building-typical window AC. Based on the guidelines to omit features with low historical confidence and no remark support, window AC is not treated as a building feature.
Across current listings, 19 out of 20 explicitly list CONCRE in the construction_materials field, strongly indicating a reinforced concrete building. Public remarks do not contradict this or mention any alternative structure type. This consistent MLS checkbox data across many different listings and agents provides strong evidence the building is concrete-constructed.

The building is repeatedly and explicitly marketed as resort-zoned and legally allowing short-term and daily vacation rentals, including Airbnb. This is a key selling point across many listings.
While short-term rentals are clearly allowed, they are not described as being part of a hotel system. The absence of hotel branding or a hotel program strongly indicates there is no hotel rental pool.
Owners can live in units full- or part-time, rent long-term, or operate short-term rentals, and no listing suggests mandatory participation in any rental pool. This makes a mandatory hotel or rental pool program effectively ruled out.

The leasehold expiration year is consistently given as 2041 across multiple listings. No remarks suggest any different or extended expiration date.
Searched all public remarks for 'VA approved', 'VA financing', 'VA loans' and related phrases; none were found. No evidence in remarks to indicate VA loan approval.
Searched the remarks for explicit HOA insurance language (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'building insurance covers walls-in') and found none. With no evidence in public remarks, set to false with medium confidence.

Scanned all public remarks for explicit statements indicating a passed fire/life safety evaluation (e.g., 'FLSE passed', 'passed fire inspection', 'life safety compliant') and found no references. Absence of any mention leads to false with medium confidence.

Multiple listings describe mountain views, including phrases like “Ala Wai Canal and mountain views,” “beautiful mountain views,” “mountain and city views,” and “backdrop of the Koolau Mountains,” appearing in at least 6–7 separate remarks. These references come from different units and agents, indicating real view characteristics rather than a single copy‑pasted phrase. Despite the MLS checkbox not being used, the consistent remarks confirm that Royal Aloha offers units with mountain views.
No analysis available
Multiple listings emphasize city views, with phrases like 'city, Ala Wai Canal, and mountain views,' 'Soak in city views from your private lanai,' and 'private lanai with mountain and city views.' At least 6–8 separate remarks from different units mention city or city skyline views, outweighing the underreported MLS checkbox data. Given both strong historical evidence and consistent recent remarks, the building clearly offers units with city views.

Many listings highlight canal/marina views with wording like “tranquil canal view,” “Ala Wai Canal view,” “Marina/Canal,” and “lanai looking out to city and canal views,” appearing in well over 10 separate remarks. These are consistent across different units and agents, showing that multiple units face the Ala Wai Canal/golf course/marina area. This establishes that Royal Aloha provides marina/canal-type views, even if the MLS checkbox field is not being populated.
Across the provided remarks, there are no explicit mentions of sunrise views, morning sun, or eastern exposure, even in units that heavily market their views. With only one MLS checkbox hinting at 'SUNRIS' and no descriptive support, sunrise views are not reliably established as a notable feature for this building.

Several recent listings for this building explicitly mention an on-site/resident manager, using phrases such as 'secured building with on-site management', 'On Site Manager', and 'secured building, site manager'. This aligns with MLS amenities where 14 of 20 listings check resident manager, indicating consistent, multi-agent confirmation rather than a one-off copy/paste error.
