Great place, nicely updated. Spotless. Kitchen is well enough stocked. It is overlooking Whalers village - so got both some music, alittle noise, and then there was construction going on at Whalers which you could hear very clearly through out the day if on the balcony. Great location. and great view. I would definitely stay again.

This is top floor. Not Penthouse quality. Lanai furniture is old and needs replaced Very uncomfortable. No clothes basket or plastic storage containers. Condo needs renovated. We have stayed in several units at The Whaler. Love it here. Have booked another unit for next year. VRBO is excellent to work with and the housekeeper was Excellent!!

This was our first trip to Maui and we were thrilled when we walked into this unit. It was perfect for two people. We loved the view from the balcony and having our coffee outside each morning. The location in Whaler Village was perfect. Close to restaurants, shopping and the beach was wonderful. We especially liked that we could get umbrella and chair rentals each day. The grounds are very nice and the staff and concierge were very helpful. Would highly recommend.
