This property was just as described. The location was great – steps to the beach short walk to Whalers Village. The property was beautiful and well maintained. We didn’t have any trouble finding a place to park in the garage. Elevators were quick. We had plenty of room for the two of us, and the bed was very comfortable.

Amazing place to stay for a couple! Just the right amount of space and located right next to whalers village! The bed was comfortable and the AC and ceiling fan kept the room cool which was perfect! Also, the place had beach chairs and a cooler we were able to take to the beach which was also walking distance. Would highly recommend staying here at the whaler!

Very friendly staff, the location and view were amazing. The room was clean and spacious and very beautiful. Would stay here every time I go to Maui in the future. The beach is also very clean and not too crowded even at its busiest. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

This is a great property and beautiful room. One recommendation - confirm your reservation with The Whaler team before you arrive as the property manager for the unit did not send our confirmed reservation to the property before our arrival despite sending us one in email. We had to chase down the property manager while standing at front desk and wait for them to send an email to the front desk after 8 hours of travel🙁

This was our third stay at The Whaler and this was the best unit location of all our stays. The view is incredible. Room was as nice as advertised. There is no better place to stay in Kaanapali than The Whaler. This was our best vacation ever.

Overall had an amazing experience. Location was ideal. Only thing missing is a vacuum in the room since we did have a carpet and some sand from the beach accumulated. Other than that it was an excellent trip

Great place to stay. Lots of older folks so it is fairly quiet. Facility was clean and staff was friendly. Would have been nice if there was access to a workout facility, but I believe that was for members only, not guests.
