Place was great. Awesome view. I communicated with owner before going and she said she had left chairs and umbrella in may. There were no chairs but that was okay. We ended up buying some from Costco and bringing them home we could use hotels because waves were so big they weren’t letting guests use them. The umbrella was there but broken. We managed to use it sort of but by the end of the week too windy to use. Kitchen was well stocked with all what we needed to cook. Bed very nice and couch and everything nice. Would stay there again as we loved he view and our friends also stay in same tower. We love the whaler.

The penthouse view was absolutely stunning- loved watching the wave action and turtles swimming back and forth, sometimes startling swimmers above them! Enjoyed eating out on the lanai and kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our time there- wished we could have stayed longer!!

This was the most amazing property. We loved it so much. We did not want to leave. It was extremely clean with a nice furnishings. The bed was comfortable, and the bathrooms had all the amenities. But by far the view and closeness to the ocean were the best part. It had a wraparound lanai and we spent every evening watching the sunset on it. The directions were clear and we appreciated the beach accessories. We look forward to returning to this property.

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo at the Whaler, Such an amazing spot, especially as a corner unit, we loved have both doors cracked for excellent air flow, not to mention the view of the water AND the mountains. Added bonus was the blow up air mattress so our two (grown) "kids" had plenty of room, along with the pull out couch. We also loved having use of the Tommy Bahama chairs, another nice surprise. Really helpful having two full bathrooms. We also appreciated the ceiling fan in the living room and the extra fan in the bedroom. We would happily stay here again, very sad to leave this slice of paradise!

The pictures are accurate. We had a lot of space for the four of us. I enjoyed being able to wash laundry during the trip. I was worried that not having an ocean view from the living area might be a bummer, but the mountains were lovely, and we saw several rainbows. When I woke up in the morning, I could see the ocean from bed in the master suite. The balcony is six times the size of the smaller units, and we had coffee out there each morning to watch the boats.The condo is right next to the side of Whaler's Village. This made for easy access to pop into ABC for anything we needed. There is even a back walkway shortcut, where you can use your key. There was some beeping and noise from deliveries, but also the view is ocean, birds, and landscaping. The units on the other side faced inward and hundreds of units. I think this is a good trade-off. It's just steps away from the beach for swimming, and I recommend taking one of the snorkel tours that pick you up right next to the condo. We had a blast. This is a great location. There are a few small shopping areas within a few minutes. We ate at the food trucks, and it was delicious. We also were able to go to a craft fair, located near Ross, and pick up some souvenirs. We went to the Tropical Plantation tour for the second time and went to the Old Lahaina Luau, which is only a few miles away. Thank you so much for your attention to detail.

This property is absolutely amazing! It is right on the beach, and they include beach, chairs, beach, umbrellas, and ice chest. It was wonderful having a full kitchen and washer and dryer! We loved going out on the balcony in the morning and enjoying the beautiful view And Cooling wind. The weather was pretty warm, but we had amazing air-conditioning inside the condo. The host was very responsive and even allowed us to have a late checkout on our last day, since our flight home wasn’t until 9 o’clock that night, and we had two babies with us. It was very convenient to rent cribs from Maui On The Fly, and they delivered them and set them up in the condo for us before we arrived! We could walk right down the beach to Black rock which had great snorkeling! We were able to get free beach towels at the pool and turn them in for a clean one every day! We would definitely book it again!

The property was not the view I expected. There wasn’t enough plates or bowls, garbage can the size of a waste paper basket, sheets in master bedroom were too small, several lamps without light bulbs, toilet in master bath room didn’t flush well, the screen to go out slider looking towards mountains wouldn’t slide and the telephone didn’t work either. I would not recommend this unit to anyone nor would I use it again

This is now our absolute favorite place to stay in Maui! It’s even better than the pictures. And the views are incredible. Being able to see the ocean while laying in bed was the perfect way to wake up each morning. The unit also has everything you could wish for. Lastly, Julie was the perfect host - always very responsive and easy check in instructions. The location is also perfect - it’s steps away from the beach. Thank you so much Julie for the perfect start to our summer! We’ll definitely be back!

Especially nice are all of the games and beach gear. Julie is a very communicative host and she gave some great recommendations regarding grocery stores and restaurants. We love the Whaler and this will be our go-to condo for future vacations!Mahalo Julie for the great stay

With so many great reviews I can’t believe our stay was so disappointing. Let’s start with night one the upstairs unit flooded into our bathroom, hallway and master closet. Did repair come quickly yes. The fire sprinkler though continued to leak the rest of the trip and my daughter’s suitcase in the closet was soaked. The pocket door to the bathroom was stuck and would not close by about two inches. Had to ask maintenance to come fix that as well since I have 3 teenagers who value privacy. After all the water that brought the ants. Day 2 the ants got into ALL opened dry food and everything had to be thrown out. We tried moving unopened food to coffee table to save and by day 4 of calling for help with ant problem all food had to be thrown out. The ants also decided to take over the coffee maker and make it unusable for the rest of the stay. We had 4 in our group but they started us with only 3 towels that I did Not know we had to wash on our own. There should be at least the number of towels given for occupants. They did bring new towels although since we had to use our towels to clean up the leak. Carpet is stained and dry bug carcasses throughout. I did Reach out to property management repeatedly during our stay.

The unit is truly amazing. It is our new home away from home. From the moment you arrive at The Whaler and especially when you step into the unit, you know you are in for a first-class Hawaiian vacation. There is every amenity needed for your stay. The hosts are very helpful, friendly and accommodating.The location is perfect for ocean/beach views and spectacular sunsets between Lanai and Molokaʻi. You also have a great view of Black Rock and are next door to Whaler's Village with shopping and excellent restaurants. We cannot recommend this unit and The Whaler highly enough. We look forward to our next visit.
