Stayed at this during New Years week 2025/2026.I am familiar with The Whaler having stayed there many times. The property is located right next door to Whaler Village for shopping, dining etc. This unit is in a great spot with balcony views of beach/ocean, Black Rock and pool. Unit is spacious which includes a roll away. The place was clean and had everything needed. Water toys, beach chairs and umbrellas were in the unit along with kitchen/laundry items. The laundry room is literally right next door if you needed it so very convenient. I would definitely book this place again next time I travel to Maui.

Beautiful unit with amazing views. The host was quick to answer any questions and gave us helpful information. The beach, the pool, the surrounding establishments make this an ideal location. Definitely a five-star experience!!!

Condo 102 is a beautiful condo which looks out directly on the ocean and the amazing beach! It is the perfect condo for a family with small children and senior citizens, which our party had both. Very well stocked with anything you could possibly need. If you ever rent this condo you definitely won’t be disappointed. The host was very good with staying in touch with us and was available anytime we needed anything. We look forward to returning again in the future!

Amazing!! Wonderful view, the condo is beautiful & has everything you could need. The hosts are quick to respond to questions. The Whaler condo is welcoming & accommodating. We feel like it was the best location and view on Kaanapali Beach. We will forever remember this condo and our amazing first time in Maui. Thank you.

Unit was amazing. Just high enough not to hear the day to day hustle, but low enough to use the stairs instead of the elevator if you wanted. Sunset views were stunning!

Amazing location with a great view. Short walk to Black Rock snorkelling area and excellent amenities in the pool and koi pond. Easy access to the beach and to markets and food court at Whalers Village. Very clean and good space for storage. Pull-out bed was as comfortable as one might expect it to be.

The unit has all the amenities needed for your stay. The kitchen is fully stocked. It is immaculate. The property nanager Westside Maui provides immediate response to any questions. The unit has a nice side view of the ocean. It is walking distance to everything. It has a private entrance to Whalers Village. Fresh beach towels are provided. There is a bonus in that this unit has beach chairs. That was extremely helpful for going to the beach and watching the sunset each evening.

Fabulous 5 night stay for 3 adults who appreciated the easy access to the beach and restaurants. The condo was better than expected in terms of cleanliness and spaciousness. The premium for the condo being renovated and having two full bathrooms was well worth it. We visited during December at the start of whale season and the effort of bringing binoculars from home on an 11 hour flight was rewarded with being able to view whales far off in the distance from the balcony.

Room was clean but the decor needs a refresh. (wallpaper coming down, refrigerator was stained, bathroom fan too loud). Location was great. Our flight came in early and we went to check in and were told they have a strict 4 o’clock policy. They kept us waiting until 4:15. My son stayed in another unit and they hustled up and got him checked in at 2:00.

My wife and I have been fortunate to visit Maui many times. This condo was by far my favorite accommodation we have ever had. Everything about it was perfect for us. The big lanai with great views of the beach and black rock was an amazing way to start our days. The condo itself is beautiful. It felt like being home from the perfect size kitchen to having two full baths and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in! The complex grounds are beautiful and peaceful! Every interaction we had with the host was amazing. I have not one bad word to say! I am hoping we get the chance to stay here again!

Absolute 5 star experience at this property. This place had everything from high end finishes, comfortable furniture and beds, high end kitchen appliances and fully stocked kitchen. It was immaculately clean and comfortable. Even the water pressure was great and the bathroom super spacious. We stayed with my 2 teens who slept on the pull out couch and Murphy bed. Condo felt plenty spacious and it was easy to put those beds away during the day so we could fully enjoy the living space. And the LOCATION! Right on the beach. Walk out of complex and directly into the water to snorkel or boogie board. The view from the balcony was amazing. We love Kaanapali and this has been our favorite experience by far.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful unit. A real treat to be surrounded by beautiful woodwork and art. The kitchen was well equipped. Really appreciated having herbs and spices, oils, etc. cook with, as well as good quality equipment. Very comfortable stay from the comfortable bed to enjoying lounge chairs on the lanai. Appreciated chairs and cooler to take to the beach. Carol was gracious and expedient in her communications with me. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
