Waiea - 1118 Ala Moana

No analysis available

I looked for explicit owner-occupancy figures like '80% owner occupied' as well as qualitative phrases such as 'majority owner occupied' or 'highly owner occupied.' The remarks repeatedly describe the building's privacy and service level, but they do not provide an owner-occupancy percentage.

I searched the public remarks for an explicit elevator count for the building, including phrases like '4 elevators,' 'four elevators,' and 'multiple elevators.' The remarks only mention private/dedicated elevators and private foyers for specific units, which do not establish the total number of building elevators.

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.

9 of 20 current MLS listings list ACCEN in association_fee_includes and prior data indicated Medium confidence. Remarks reference the LEED-certified nature and building systems, implying centralized HVAC is present, so central AC being included is plausible but only moderately supported.

The building-level MLS data strongly supports cable TV being included, with 17 of 20 current listings checked for CABTV. Public remarks do not usually mention cable, which is common for HOA-included utilities and suggests the checkbox data is the best evidence.

Common-area electricity is supported by the MLS data, with 16 of 20 listings including OTCOEX. The remarks repeatedly reference powered shared spaces like the infinity pool area, theater, fitness areas, elevators, and lounge/amenity decks, which fits building-paid common electricity.

Gas inclusion is strongly supported by the MLS, where 18 of 20 listings have GAS checked. One remark explicitly mentions “gas cooking,” reinforcing that gas is included at the building level rather than being a stray checkbox.

Hot water inclusion appears consistent across the MLS data, with 17 of 20 listings checking HOTWAT and none indicating WTRHTR. There are no remarks suggesting unit-level water heaters or any reason to reverse the inclusion.

Internet service is supported by the current MLS records, with 17 of 20 listings including INTSER. The public remarks are mostly focused on luxury amenities and do not provide contrary evidence, so the checkbox trend is persuasive.

No analysis available

Sewer is consistently included in the MLS data, with 17 of 20 listings checking SEWER. Because remarks do not discuss sewer directly, the repeated MLS inclusion across listings is the strongest evidence.

Water inclusion is strongly supported by the MLS data, where 17 of 20 listings include WATER. The remarks are silent on this utility, but there is no evidence of a correction or a unit-level exception.

BBQ amenities are extremely well-supported, with all 20 MLS listings checking the box. Public remarks repeatedly mention BBQ cabanas/pavilions and outdoor resident grilling areas, showing consistent building-level availability.

No analysis available

There is no meaningful support for car wash facilities in the remarks, and the historical MLS signal is minimal. Given the absence of corroborating remarks and the very weak prior frequency, this is best corrected to false.

No analysis available

Concierge service is consistently and explicitly supported across the remarks. Many listings mention 'concierge service,' 'concierge team,' or a 'staffed/manned front desk/entry lobby,' and the historical MLS data also shows 16 of 20 listings with CONCIE. The evidence is strong across multiple listings and does not look like a one-off or copy-paste artifact.

Dog park/pet exercise space is clearly present at Waiea. Several listings explicitly mention a 'dog park', making this one of the more consistently described amenities.

MLS checkboxes do not show doorman (0/20), but at least several listings (approx. 5) explicitly reference a staffed/manned front desk or staffed entry lobby and descriptions like "staffed/manned front desk/entry lobby" and "staffed/manned front desk/entry lobby/ front desk service" appear across agents. The mentions suggest a staffed, attended entry presence (what buyers search for as a doorman), though it is not invoked in every remark so confidence is moderate.

Strong, repeated evidence across many listings supports an exercise room/fitness center at Waiea. Remarks consistently reference 'fitness center', 'gym', 'yoga room', and 'active/passive exercise rooms', which appears across multiple agents rather than a one-off mention.

No analysis available

Meeting-room style amenities are strongly supported. The remarks repeatedly describe a catered dining room, chef’s kitchen, and private meeting-style spaces, matching the high-frequency MLS amenity data.

Strong building-level evidence that Waiea offers patio/deck-type outdoor spaces. Numerous listings mention a 'lanai' or 'covered lanai/terrace' (e.g., 69 sf lanai, 159 sf lanai, 336 sq. ft. covered terrace, 154 sq. ft. lanai) and several also reference the 'amenity deck' and outdoor cabanas/BBQ areas. This appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a copy-paste anomaly, so the feature should be included.

Several villa listings reference a “private entry garden” and “its own 2,799 sf yard, backyard oasis, outdoor kitchen, pool/jacuzzi,” indicating true private yard areas for some units.

No analysis available

Waiea appears to have a shared recreation area/amenity deck. Several listings mention a '7th floor rec deck' and outdoor amenity deck spaces, which aligns with the MLS recreation-area signal.

There is strong evidence for a recreation/party room-type amenity at Waiea. Multiple remarks reference a 'party Rm', 'entertainment areas', and a catered dining room/private dining hall, suggesting a shared recreation room function.

Restaurant/dining facility evidence is moderately strong. Some remarks reference 'ground-floor dining options' and 'ground-floor restaurants', though the language is less consistent than for core amenities like the gym or pool.

No analysis available

Sauna is one of the most consistently documented amenities at Waiea. The remarks repeatedly mention sauna/steam sauna/dry sauna across many listings, aligning with the unanimous MLS data.

Strong evidence that Waiea offers storage units: at least a dozen current listings explicitly mention storage rooms or storage unit numbers (examples: "2 storage rm (#3-72/#3-73)", "storage #6-02 included", "storage #3-46(31 sqft)", "PENTHOUSE...2 Big storage rooms at 3rd floor", and a standalone sale of storage unit S-350). This corroborates historical high-confidence data and appears across multiple agents’ remarks rather than being a single copy/paste error, so include storage_unit = true.

I looked for surfboard storage references, including board storage and bike-and-surfboard storage. The remarks mention storage rooms and beach activities, but no dedicated surfboard storage facility.

Across a very large set of remarks for this building, there are zero references to tennis courts or tennis facilities, which would be prominently marketed if present. Only 1 of 20 MLS entries checks TENCOU, contradicting both narrative descriptions and the majority of agents. This strongly suggests the building does not offer a shared tennis court.

Weak/ambiguous evidence: only ~5 of 20 MLS entries have the TRACHU checkbox checked and none of the public remarks mention a trash/garbage chute. Given the lack of corroborating remarks and limited MLS support, the existence of a trash chute is uncertain and not reliably documented in the remarks.

Multiple sources indicate valet is offered at Waiea: 6/20 current MLS listings include VALET in amenities and at least one public remark explicitly lists 'Valet Service.' Numerous other remarks describe "hotel/resort-style" staffing ("concierge," "staffed/manned front desk," "resident specialists," "hospitality concierge"), which corroborates the building-level valet/service model. Evidence is strong across multiple agent remarks and the MLS amenities checkboxes, so the building-level valet feature is included.

No analysis available

Whirlpool/hot tub/spa amenities are strongly confirmed. Many listings mention an 'infinity-edge pool and hot tub', 'jacuzzi', or 'spa', making this a very reliable building feature.

The building is consistently advertised with a shared swimming pool. Multiple remarks explicitly mention an "infinity edge ocean view pool," "infinity pool," and even a "swim/lap pool," across many listings from different agents, so this appears to be a stable building amenity rather than copy-paste error.

The heated-pool feature is supported by MLS amenity data on 15 of 20 listings, but the public remarks mostly just say "pool" or "infinity-edge pool" without using the word heated. Because the remarks are consistent about the pool itself but silent on temperature, this is solid inferred evidence rather than explicit confirmation.

I searched for salt-water pool wording such as 'salt water pool,' 'saltwater pool,' 'salt pool,' and 'saline pool.' The pool is described as infinity-edge, ocean-view, resort-style, and lap pool, but not as salt water.

Laundry in unit is strongly supported and appears consistent across the building: current MLS inclusions show washer/dryer in 20 of 20 listings. Multiple independent remarks also explicitly describe in-unit laundry, including phrases like "dedicated laundry room," "laundry room complete with sink," and "full size washer/dryer," so this is not just checkbox noise.

No analysis available

I looked for explicit paid-laundry language such as coin laundry, coin-op, card-operated machines, or laundry fees. The remarks do not describe any community laundry system requiring payment.

I searched the public remarks for wording like 'laundry on every floor,' 'laundry room on each floor,' and similar community-laundry references. The listings mention in-unit laundry rooms or washer/dryer in some residences, but nothing about shared laundry facilities on every floor.

No analysis available

Assigned/reserved parking is well supported across the listings. About 12 of 20 MLS entries indicate ASSIGN, and several remarks explicitly mention assigned stalls or numbered parking spaces, which is strong building-level evidence rather than a one-off unit detail.

Covered parking appears universal in the current MLS data, with 20 of 20 listings showing covered/garage-related parking features. Remarks consistently reinforce this with phrases like "covered parking," "garage," and "drive-in garage," making this extremely high confidence.

I searched for explicit deeded-parking language such as "deeded parking," "owned stall," or "parking included in deed" and did not find it. The listings repeatedly note assigned stalls, included parking, and EV chargers, which suggests parking is available but not enough to confirm deeded ownership.

No analysis available

I looked for references to parking rent, monthly parking charges, additional parking costs, or rental parking fees and found none. The remarks describe parking as included/assigned, but they do not state any separate monthly fee.

Guest parking has mixed support from the MLS checkbox data, with 11 of 20 listings marked GUEST. However, the public remarks do not clearly confirm visitor parking; they repeatedly mention "guest suites," which may be copy-paste amenity text and not parking-specific, so confidence is only moderate.

Moderate evidence: 10 of 20 MLS records mark secured parking and several remarks mention concierge, valet, a staffed front desk, and 24/7 security. This supports that parking access is secured in practice, but fewer explicit references to gated/card-access parking reduce overall certainty.

No analysis available

No analysis available

I searched for "parking waitlist," "waiting list," or instructions to join a parking waitlist and found nothing. The listings instead describe units with assigned or included parking stalls, which does not suggest a waitlist system.

No analysis available

I looked for card/fob access language such as key card access, fob entry, card reader, or electronic access. The remarks mention concierge, front desk, and security service, but nothing specifically about card-based building access.

Security guard service is strongly supported across the listings. At least several remarks explicitly reference '24/7 security service,' 'security,' and 'full-time resident specialists,' while the historical MLS data shows 19 of 20 listings with SECGUA checked. This is high-confidence evidence that the building offers on-site security.

I searched for explicit patrol language like security patrol, roving security, or patrolled building. The listings reference security and 24/7 security service, but do not state patrol service.

No analysis available

Strong building-level evidence supports central air conditioning at Waiea. Historical MLS data is highly consistent (16/20 unit features and 19/20 inclusions referencing ACCEN/CENAC/ACCEN), and none of the current remarks suggest the system was removed or replaced. The remarks focus on luxury finishes and amenities rather than HVAC details, so the MLS pattern remains the best evidence.

No analysis available

Concrete construction is strongly supported by the MLS and the building history. All 20 current listings carry the CONCRE code, so this appears to be a stable building-level feature rather than copy-paste noise.

Double-wall construction appears in 11 of 20 current listings, suggesting it may be an actual building feature or a frequently propagated MLS code. There are no remarks directly confirming it, so confidence is moderate rather than high.

No analysis available

A minority but notable portion of MLS entries (4/20) list masonry/stucco, which is plausible for lower‑level, podium, or villa exteriors even though the tower is primarily glass and concrete. No public remarks dispute the presence of such elements, so this remains included with moderate confidence.

Steel frame construction is supported by a strong current majority of listings. The feature is consistently present across many listings, making it likely a real building characteristic rather than an MLS checkbox error.

2/20 MLS listings mark SLAB, and as a modern high-rise, Waiea would necessarily sit on a concrete slab/raft foundation.

No analysis available

No analysis available

Numerous public remarks describe Waiea as a high-rise/tower—examples include '36-story Waiea', 'flagship tower', and repeated references to 'high floor' units—confirming above-ground construction. While only 6/20 MLS listings carry the ABOGRO code, the consistent language across many agent remarks and historical building characterization provide strong evidence that the building is above ground.

Only 1/20 MLS listings show BRICK, while Waiea is documented as a glass-and-concrete tower; no remarks or photos suggest any brick structural construction, indicating a likely MLS mis-click.

No analysis available

I searched the remarks for explicit STR permission, legal short-term rental wording, NUC/TVU references, or vacation-rental language and found none. There is also no hotel-style rental language that would indicate short-term rentals are allowed.

I looked for hotel pool or branded rental-program references such as hotel-managed units, hotel rental pool, Hilton/Trump/Ritz-style pool participation, and found none. Because there is no evidence that STR is allowed, this must be false.

I searched for wording like mandatory pool participation, required rental program, or cannot opt out and found nothing. With no evidence of an STR program in the remarks, there is no basis for a mandatory hotel pool.

No analysis available

No analysis available

I looked for leasehold wording, ground lease references, renewal language, and any 4-digit lease-expiry year, but found nothing. Based on the remarks provided, there is no evidence that this is a leasehold building or that a lease expiry date was disclosed.

I searched the remarks for VA loan language such as "VA approved," "VA financing," or "VA loans accepted" and found none. The only financing-related mention is seller financing, which does not indicate VA eligibility.

I searched the remarks for HOA insurance terms such as fully insured, full insurance, walls-in coverage, or comprehensive building insurance. There were no references to insurance coverage in the public remarks, so this cannot be confirmed from the listings.

15 of 20 listings include the fire sprinkler amenity in MLS data, but none of the public remarks explicitly describe sprinkler installation or fire suppression. The evidence looks more like consistent MLS checkbox usage than agent-written confirmation, so confidence is moderate rather than high.

I looked for any public-remarks language indicating the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE, fire safety certification, or a passed fire inspection. The listings focus on luxury amenities, views, and finishes, with no fire/life safety status stated.

Strong building-level evidence for ocean views: 17 of 20 current listings reference ocean/Oceanfront and phrases like "ocean view", "oceanfront", and "Pacific Ocean vistas". Remarks are repeated across many agents and units (e.g., "breathtaking views of the ocean", "ocean-view pool"), supporting inclusion for buyers seeking ocean-view units.

Moderately strong evidence: mountain views are explicitly mentioned in many listings (approx. 6–10 remarks) using terms like "Diamond Head", "mountain", and "Koolau mountains". Evidence is repeated across different unit listings and agents, indicating some units provide mountain/mauka views.

Many different Waiea listings highlight Diamond Head views, including phrases like “Diamond Head–facing,” “panoramic views of Diamond Head and the Pacific Ocean,” and “from Diamond Head to the Ewa coast.” These references span standard units and penthouses on the east-facing side, confirming that Diamond Head view units are a notable and recurring feature of this building.

Solid evidence: about 8–10 listings mention city or skyline views with phrases such as "city skyline", "city views", and "urban views/downtown", appearing across multiple unit descriptions and agent entries, showing the building offers city-view units.

There is solid evidence that the building offers coastline/shoreline views. Several remarks directly state "Waikiki Coastline," "coastlines," or "sandy beach shoreline," and the current MLS data remains strong with 14/20 listings showing COASTL. The pattern appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste.

Strong building-level evidence that Waiea offers marina/harbor views. Multiple current listings explicitly reference "Kewalo Yacht Harbor," "Kewalo Harbor," "harbor and sunset view," and "marina" views, consistent with the existing high-confidence MLS pattern (12/20 current listings mention MARCAN).

No analysis available

Strong evidence the building offers sunset views: 13 of 20 current listings reference sunsets or sunset-oriented amenities with quotes like "sunset lounge/bar", "enjoying sunsets", and "spectacular ocean views...sunset". Mentions are consistent across many units and agent remarks, making this feature relevant to buyers.

No analysis available

The remarks clearly confirm fireworks views from units, not just proximity to fireworks. This is directly supported by multiple listings describing Friday night fireworks seen from the unit.

No analysis available

19 of 20 listings include RESMAN in MLS data, and the remarks repeatedly reinforce on-site staffing with phrases like "resident specialists," "concierge and staffed/manned front desk/entry lobby," and "full-time resident specialists." The consistency across many listings suggests this is not just copy-paste checkbox noise, but a real building-level service feature.
