We rented this place because it is on Kaanapali Beach and we wanted a first floor condo. We didn't want to have to worry about eating out for every meal and then not having anywhere to even store the expensive left overs. We also chose the first floor so we could go in and out without having to deal with... more

Loved it.....we left our location at Naplil Shores due to it being a terrible room. We felt like we walked into paradise when we checked into our room at the Whaler. We loved the beautiful view, the gorgeous grounds, the great beach with so many restaurants/shops and activities right in walking distance. We will not stay anywhere else on Maui... more

Great location, nice beaches, nice condo. Our studio was very sufficient for our needs. Black Rock beach within walking distance for great snorkeling. Baby Beach in Lahaina was a short drive away and a great find. Food choices in the area were decent. We really didn't have to go anywhere else. more

This was a return trip to Maui and I remembered seeing this property on my first visit. I was a little hesitant to pick the property because of the various reviews concerning some of the rooms not being up to a proper standard for the money one paid. However, I decided to take a chance and paid extra for an... more

My wife and I recently returned from staying at the Whaler. We were there from September 13 -24th, and had a very enjoyable stay. This is our third stay at the Whaler, and it's never dissapointed us. The major construction is over, and the property has come back to it's relaxing, low key atmosphere. The pool has been re-done, and... more

We stayed in Unit 816 for 2 weeks and as usual can't help feeling at home at the Whaler. The Unit itself is recently remodeled which was great but the only thing I wish it had was a screen door for the patio so I can leave the door open at night to be lulled to sleep by the ocean... more

The hotel is well situated and the staff are very freindly and helpfull. The rooms are newly renovated and clean with good floorplans. The pool was a little on the small side, but clean and well maintained. The beach out front was fun with small waves to play in and a reef just out a bit. Black rock is just... more

10/1/09: Our stay at your condo last month was fantastic. We really enjoyed the recent remodel of the interior of the studio. The bed was especially comfortable! The courtyard, garage, porte cochere, pool, and spa were recently remodelled and they look great. Having visited this island many times, we found the Whaler 514 condo to be the best location for... more
