Sky Ala Moana West
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.

The state registration reports 43 floors, and listing floor fields and unit numbers consistently reach floor 43; the penthouse listings at floors 41–42 do not outweigh that broader evidence.
The Hawaii Real Estate Branch registration reports 392 total units for this single-building registration, which is authoritative for that registration. The county reconciled count is 386, so it is set aside as a conflicting county figure; the listings cover only a subset of units.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 8308. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
I searched for explicit elevator counts and qualifying phrases such as '4 elevators,' 'four elevators,' or 'multiple elevators.' The remarks only refer to proximity to elevators and provide no count, so the number of elevators is unknown.
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.
No substantive evidence that central AC is included in association fees: only 1 of 20 MLS records checked ACCEN and agent remarks overwhelmingly describe split/window units or in-unit AC. No listings state 'central AC included in fees', so we conclude association fees do not include central AC.
Cable inclusion is strongly supported across the building, with 16 of 20 listings reporting CABTV. One listing explicitly states that basic TV cable is included, corroborating the repeated MLS data across multiple listings.
Common-area expense inclusion is supported by 14 of 20 current listings through the OTCOEX code. No public remark explicitly names common-area electricity, so the evidence is primarily repeated MLS data rather than independent narrative confirmation.

Gas inclusion has weak current MLS support, appearing in only 2 of 20 listings. No remarks mention "gas included" or gas in the HOA fees, so this remains a low-confidence inclusion rather than a strongly validated feature.
Current MLS data does not support included hot water: only 2 of 20 listings show HOTWAT, compared with 15 of 20 showing WTRHTR. Public remarks do not mention hot water inclusion, while the prevalence of unit water heaters strongly indicates that hot water is not generally included in maintenance fees.
Internet inclusion is strongly established, with INTSER reported in 16 of 20 listings. One listing explicitly says "basic internet/Wi-Fi" is included, providing independent confirmation beyond repeated MLS checkbox data.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is exceptionally well supported, appearing in 19 of 20 current listings. A public remark independently confirms that "water/sewer" is included, making this a strong building-wide feature rather than an isolated agent entry.
Water inclusion is strongly established, with WATER listed in 19 of 20 current listings. The explicit phrase "water/sewer" is included in a public remark, confirming the MLS data across multiple listings.
BBQ facilities are extensively confirmed across the remarks, including “BBQ cabanas,” “BBQ pavilions,” “9 BBQ stations,” “BBQ grills,” and “outdoor kitchen.” Multiple agents describe the shared amenity deck and grilling areas, providing overwhelming evidence.

No supplied listing explicitly identifies a “clubhouse,” “club house,” or “community center.” Although some listings mention private dining rooms, party rooms, and extensive amenity areas, those descriptions do not establish a clubhouse; the sparse historical checkbox support appears likely to reflect inconsistent MLS labeling.
At least 5 listings explicitly mention concierge service, including "concierge service" and repeated descriptions of "concierge services" among the building's five-star amenities. The repeated remarks and current MLS selections support the previously high-confidence conclusion that the building offers concierge service.
The building consistently advertises a shared dog park or dog run, sometimes with detailed pet limits such as two pets weighing up to 60 pounds each. This is independently confirmed across many listings and is not merely an isolated checkbox.
No analysis available
Exercise facilities are confirmed across many independent listings, including repeated phrases such as “fitness center,” “state-of-the-art fitness center,” “indoor/outdoor gym,” and “outdoor workout area.” The evidence is strong and consistent across agents rather than relying only on checkbox data.
No analysis available
Meeting or gathering spaces are confirmed by repeated phrases including “private dining room,” “private rooms,” “gathering rooms,” “catering kitchen,” and “rentable entertaining spaces.” The evidence is repeated across multiple agents and aligns with the strong current MLS frequency.
Patio/deck space is overwhelmingly confirmed across the building: well over 20 remarks mention private or spacious lanais, open-air lanais, decks, or similar outdoor areas, with several listings providing specific sizes from approximately 82 to 100 sq. ft. The repeated descriptions across many units and agents, together with 18/20 current MLS amenity records marked PATDEC/COVPAT, strongly establish this as a building-wide feature rather than isolated copy-paste.
No analysis available
No analysis available
No listings' public remarks (0 of many listings) explicitly describe a private or fenced yard. Several listings reference shared open green spaces, amenity deck, playground, dog park, or private lanais, but there are no mentions of private yard access or enclosed yards—while the MLS amenity checkbox appears set for 1/20 listings, the narrative descriptions indicate this is likely a mistaken checkbox rather than a real building feature.
No analysis available
Shared recreation areas are consistently described through phrases such as “outdoor recreation spaces,” “open green spaces,” “vibrant outdoor space,” and the “Sky Terrace” amenity deck. The repeated descriptions across listings strongly confirm this building-level feature.
The building repeatedly advertises “recreation rooms,” “private recreation party rooms,” “multiple recreation and party rooms,” and “rec room.” These references occur across many listings and are supported by the high MLS frequency.
On-site dining is confirmed through references to “Sera restaurant and bar,” “Mara restaurant,” “LAMILL cafe,” “restaurants and a bakery,” and food service in the connected hotel tower. The feature is available to residents even though it is not mentioned in every listing.
No analysis available
Sauna facilities are repeatedly and specifically confirmed, including “dry & wet sauna,” “steam and dry sauna,” “Himalayan heated saltwater spa,” and “Sky Terrace Spa” access. The high MLS frequency and detailed cross-listing descriptions provide very strong evidence.
Storage is strongly confirmed across numerous independent listing remarks, far exceeding the threshold: examples include “storage locker,” “dedicated storage locker,” “private storage locker,” “storage locker #7148L,” “deeded storage,” and “2 storage lockers.” Remarks also describe separately purchasable 106-sq.-ft. storage units, confirming that the building offers storage lockers/units in addition to some unit-specific storage.
The building offers private storage lockers and is near beaches and surf-related activities. No dedicated surfboard or board-storage facility is identified in the remarks.
No analysis available
Trash chute is present in the current MLS data for all 20 listings, although direct narrative confirmation is limited to an explicit “Trash Chute” amenity listing. Because the checkbox is universal and there is no contradictory remark, the feature is retained with slightly lower confidence than amenities repeatedly described in prose.
No supporting evidence in public remarks: none of the listings' remarks explicitly reference 'valet', 'valet service', or 'valet parking'. Given that MLS checkboxes show only 1/20 with VALET and historical confidence was absent/low, the lack of any remark across many agent descriptions indicates the valet feature is not a building amenity.
No analysis available
Numerous listings reference “4 hot tubs,” “whirlpool spa,” “jacuzzis,” “two spas,” and “hot tubs juxtaposed to the pool.” The repeated descriptions across the residential amenity deck and hotel facilities strongly confirm whirlpool amenities.
Pool access is overwhelmingly confirmed across the listings, with well over 20 remarks explicitly mentioning pools and many describing specific amenities such as a “swimming pool,” “lap pool,” “two heated saltwater pools,” and a “25 meter lap pool.” The repeated detailed descriptions across numerous agents strongly corroborate the MLS amenity data rather than appearing to be an isolated copy-paste error.
At least 15 of 20 listings identify heated pool amenities, while numerous remarks explicitly state 'two heated salt water pools,' 'heated lap pool,' or 'Himalayan heated saltwater pools.' This is repeated across multiple listings and strongly confirms that the building offers heated swimming pools, not merely copied generic pool language.
Numerous public remarks directly identify the residential pools as saltwater or heated saltwater pools. The repeated explicit references strongly confirm this feature.
At least 15 of the 20 current listings explicitly mention in-unit laundry, including "in-unit washer/dryer," "full-size washer and dryer," "stackable washer/dryer," and "Electrolux washer and dryer." The evidence appears across multiple units and agents, with both detailed unit-specific descriptions and repeated MLS inclusion data, so this is a strong building feature rather than an isolated or unsupported checkbox.
No analysis available
The remarks consistently reference in-unit washers and dryers rather than shared laundry facilities. No evidence was found of any payment requirement for laundry.
The listings describe private in-unit laundry, including Electrolux or stackable washer/dryer units. No qualifying evidence was found for community laundry facilities available on every floor.
No analysis available
Assigned parking is strongly supported by the MLS data and numerous independent remarks from different listings. Key phrases include "assigned parking," "designated parking space," "reserved parking spots," and "covered assigned and deeded parking stalls," indicating this is a building-level offering rather than isolated copy-paste.
Covered parking is overwhelmingly confirmed across the building: 20 of 20 current listings carry covered or garage indicators, and many independent remarks explicitly describe covered or garage parking. Repeated phrases such as “covered garage parking stall,” “two covered parking stalls,” and “assigned and covered parking stalls” provide strong multi-agent confirmation rather than a single likely copy-pasted checkbox.
Multiple listings describe assigned covered parking as included with the residences. One explicit building-level statement confirms that every two-bedroom residence includes covered, assigned, deeded parking stalls.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly describe parking as assigned, covered, included, or deeded. No monthly or additional parking fee was found, so the fee amount is unknown rather than confirmed to be zero.
Guest parking is strongly supported by both MLS data and repeated direct remarks across multiple listings. The recurring descriptions of ample, plentiful, and visitor-oriented guest parking indicate a building amenity available to buyers and their guests.
Secured parking access is well supported by current MLS data and multiple explicit listing remarks. Key phrases include "secured parking entry," "two side by side, gated parking stalls," and "professional management and secured entry," providing clear evidence that parking access is controlled.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings provide extensive details about assigned, deeded, covered, guest, and EV parking but contain no waitlist language. This supports false with limited confidence because absence of a mention does not definitively rule out a waitlist.
No analysis available
The listings establish general building security but provide no technology-specific evidence of card or fob access. No qualifying security-card language was found.
Security guard service is strongly supported across multiple current listings and agents. At least five remarks explicitly mention “24-hour security,” “24hr security,” or “on site security,” with additional references to secured entry and a resident manager; this aligns with the 12/20 current MLS amenity records and prior high-confidence assessment.
General security personnel and secured access are referenced in several listings. However, no public remark specifically establishes a patrol service.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Split AC is strongly established across the building: 20 of 20 current listings include ACSPL, and numerous independent remarks explicitly mention split or Mitsubishi systems. Examples include "split AC in every room," "dual-zone split A/C system," "three split AC units," and "5 split Mitsubishi AC units," making this far more than isolated or copied checkbox data.
No analysis available
Concrete is recorded in 18 of 20 current listings through the CONCRE construction-material designation. No public remarks explicitly use phrases such as “concrete construction” or “reinforced concrete,” so the evidence is primarily consistent MLS data rather than independent agent descriptions; however, the 18/20 prevalence is strong across listings.
None of the reviewed remarks explicitly mention double-wall construction or two walls. DOUWAL is present in 13/20 listings, providing moderate building-level support, although the lack of independent remark confirmation leaves some risk of copied MLS data.
No analysis available
No analysis available
No listings explicitly use the phrases “steel frame” or “steel frame construction.” The feature appears in 10/20 current MLS records, which provides moderate support but may reflect copied construction fields rather than independently verified remarks.
No analysis available
No analysis available
No analysis available
No remarks use the exact phrase “above ground construction,” but multiple listings describe Sky Ala Moana as a “high-rise,” “tower,” or “two tower development,” with residences on floors up to the 40th level. These consistent descriptions strongly support above-ground construction.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Multiple listings confirm that rentals are permitted with a 30-day minimum. Other remarks also refer to investor use, monthly rentals, and a prior short-term rental operation, strongly supporting that qualifying short-term rentals are allowed.
The building is connected to the Renaissance Marriott and residents receive access to hotel-side pools, spas, fitness facilities, and other amenities. Public remarks do not establish participation in a hotel rental pool, so hotel-pool participation is not supported.
The remarks contain no mandatory-pool language such as required participation or inability to opt out. References to owner-occupancy, second-home use, and flexible rental use support that participation is not mandatory.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings identify the building as fee simple rather than leasehold. No ground-lease expiration, renewal, or lease-extension year was found, so the lease expiry is not applicable and remains null.
The remarks were searched for explicit references to VA approval or VA financing, but none were found. This does not confirm that VA financing is unavailable; it is simply not supported by the public remarks.
I searched for language indicating full HOA insurance, comprehensive building coverage, or walls-in insurance. No qualifying statement appears in the remarks, so the feature cannot be confirmed.
Fire sprinklers are supported by strong MLS evidence, appearing in 17 of 20 listings. One listing explicitly states "Fire Sprinkler," while the high frequency across listings indicates this is a building amenity rather than an isolated unit feature.
I searched the remarks for FLSE, fire/life safety evaluation, fire safety certification, life-safety compliance, and passed fire inspection language. Nothing qualifying was found; this result reflects absence of evidence rather than proof that the building failed.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Ocean views are strongly validated across the building, appearing in 14 of 20 current listings. Multiple independent remarks describe Pacific Ocean, partial ocean, panoramic ocean, or Magic Island views, indicating this is a genuine building-wide offering for some units rather than isolated copy-paste.
Mountain views are very strongly supported, appearing in 15 of 20 current listings. Multiple agents describe Ko‘olau, mountain, or mountain-and-city views from different stacks and floors, confirming that the building offers mountain-view residences.
Strong evidence: many listings explicitly mention Diamond Head views (e.g., 'Diamond Head-facing', 'stunning Diamond Head views') including high-floor corner units. Multiple independent listings reference Diamond Head consistently, supporting inclusion.
City views are overwhelmingly validated, appearing in 19 of 20 current listings. Remarks cite "Honolulu’s skyline," "sparkling city lights," "urban Honolulu," and panoramic city views across many unit types and floors, making this a well-established building feature.
Coastline views are directly referenced in at least one listing with the phrase "coastal views," while many additional remarks describe Pacific Ocean, shoreline, Magic Island, or beach-park views. Evidence is less frequent than for mountain or city views, but it supports inclusion because buyers searching for coastal-view units may find qualifying residences in the building.
Garden-view evidence is weaker than mountain or city views, but it is present. Only 3 of 20 MLS records include GARDEN, and the remarks rely on phrases like "Enchanted Gardens," "lush landscaping," and "open green spaces" rather than frequent explicit garden-view language. This supports the feature with moderate confidence, though it may reflect amenity landscaping more than widespread unit views.
No analysis available
Marina or harbor views have limited but credible support, appearing in 3 of 20 current listings. Explicit references to Ala Wai Harbor and harbor views indicate that some units offer this outlook, even though it is less consistently advertised than ocean, mountain, or city views.
No analysis available
Sunset views are supported in 3 of 20 current listings, including explicit phrases such as "sunset facing," "mountains and sunsets," and "Enjoy Fireworks on Friday nights from your lanai." The feature is stack- and orientation-dependent rather than universal, but it is relevant at the building level because multiple residences offer it.
No analysis available
Multiple listings directly confirm that Friday night fireworks are visible from individual residences, including lanais and living rooms. This satisfies the requirement for a building view from units.
No analysis available
No analysis available
A resident manager is strongly supported by MLS data, appearing in 16 of 20 listings. The explicit phrase "resident manager on-site" confirms the feature, and its repeated presence across listings suggests a legitimate building amenity rather than a single-agent error.

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.
