Maui magic
The Whaler was in a very accessible location for walking to local venues. The suite was spacious with all the items you needed to enjoy your time. Pool and ocean items, and complete kitchen with all appliances and dishes. Access to the hot tub and pool. We would definitely consider this location again and have recommended it to many friends since our return. Thank you so much.

Great place
Condo was clean, up to date and comfortable. Well stocked with what we needed for our stay such as a sun umbrella (resort charges $45.00 per day to rent one) swim noodles and beach chairs. Location is perfect very short walk to the beach. Resort staff friendly and helpful.

Fantastic
We were very happy with our stay and our accommodations, it was great for the two of us. We had dinner a few nights down at the BBQ’s for a some home cooked meals. It is wonderful to have coffee on the lanai before heading down to the beach. It was great having snorkel gear available as well as chairs and umbrellas. So thoughtful. Thank you for wonderful memories!

Best location by the beach
You cannot beat the Whaler's location on Kaanapali Beach because it is am easy walk to everything (many boat tours board on the beach just steps away.) The condo was clean and stocked with everything you could possibly want/need for cookin to save you some $. Having the use of a free washer/dryer which was just steps away was great so the next time we will bring less clothing. They do have snorkeling gear but no way to tell if the snorkels have been cleaned/sanitized (there was sand on and in the masks/snorkels so I assumed not) so best to at least do a hot water & dish soap dunk and rinse before use or bring your own snorkel/mask and use their fins to save space in your luggage. There is a peak view of the ocean from the lanai to enjoy coffee and breakfast from. We also did some cooking on the BBQs available at the resort. As others have said, there is noise on the lanai from the retaurant next door, mainly delivery truck back-up beepers to the loading zone and restaurant workers cleaning/talking in the morning. The AC unit noise is there but it was actually more like a nice white noise to me. We were up early everyday so noise didn't bother us, if it is an issue for you keep that in mind. We would re-book again as this unit has it all to make for a relaxing vacation. 10 out of 10.

better than advertised
This property was so much better than advertised. It is very large for a studio and so well stocked with kitchen supplies, beach supplies and area information. The property is in the best location on a gorgeous beach. Whalers is the best. We feel so blessed to have rented this space for our time in Maui. Great location and spectacular condo!

Fun in the Sun
The condo worked well for our needs. The only down side is that restaurant beside the condo starts getting deliveries very early in the morning, so it is a little bit noisy.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location.
Next to Whaler's Village, fronting Kaanapali beach (one of the nicest beaches in the world).

Privacy, privacy, privacy.
If you look at the pictures, you'll notice that our condo does not face the central courtyard- no one looks directly into the unit. You can leave the drapes and slider open.
