Plush, plush, plush suite! Sublime ocean views! Relaxing pool! Staff with beautiful aloha spirit. Wonderfully-tended orchid garden. Whalers Cove is amazing.

It's absolutely one of the nicest places I have ever stayed. Granite countertops in the kitchen, beautiful furnishings. Absolute amazing master suite. I wish I lived so nicely here at home.

When we first entered our unit, it was like, "Wow! Wow! Wow!" as we discovered every room and amenity. Then we settled in and all was perfect.

We like the location in Poipu, on the sunny side. It's so easy to drive everywhere in Kauai. Nearby there are plenty of grocery stores, wine shop, video store, surf shops, ice cream, fresh fish, farmers markets, restaurants--everything you need!

Kauai is amazing! Nobody hassling you about timeshares or selling cheap trinkets. The natural beauty of Kauai that we read about is why we were attracted to it, and it's why we will go back. When we return, we will absolutely return to Whaler's Cove.

This place is right near all the great restaurants on the south side, the seclusion and privacy are outstanding. The rooms, condos, are bright, spacious and very clean. The hot tub was nice to unwind in after dinner, once we had to share it with some other friendly guests.

Can't wait to have an excuse to go back...

Just returned from Kauai holiday vacation and stayed at Whalers Cove condo for 12 days. (16th thru the 27th) We booked through Grantham Resorts and stayed in unit #132. Grantham only has two units at Whaler's. We picked #132 for the sofa bed and extra bedroom tv. My mother-in law was to have the sofa bed. This was an expensive trip with rates up during the holiday ($475 per nite average with taxes). Its much less expensive at any other time of the year. We loved Whalers and would stay there again but our unit was a little tired for that kind of rate. We would book another unit and ask specifically about the condition of the unit and all the amenities the web pictures might show. The web description indicated the unit had a sofa bed (not) A tv in the 2nd bedroom (not) The blender leaked, they brought us a new one (nice) Patio furniture was tired (base rusted) and the master jacuzzi tub was plastic and stained badly (no baths this trip) Masterbed was very comfortable and also the other twin beds were good. Plenty of towels, sand chairs, beach umbrella and coolers (a nice touch) The complex has a beautiful infinity pool with hot tub and is nicely landscaped. A private stairs leads to Kola landing for good snorkeling and diving (very convenient) This complex is quiet and seemingly never full (only 30 units), many sunny days in pool with just us (a big plus) Gas barbeques for grilling are close and never busy. We loved the location within walking distance to Baby beach to the west and short drive to Poipu beach to the east. Views from the balcony are fantastic with the ocean crashing just a 100 feet away. Try the pancakes (huge) at Joe's on the green, dinner at the Beach House is excellent and worth it. Brennecke's Beach Broiler is nice but portions are small for the price. If its a little cloudy in Poipu just drive to the westside in minutes where its even sunnier, try Salt Pond Beach. We drove to the northend for sightseeing and more beautiful beaches but I think you'll have more dining choices in the south and its easier and quicker to get around. All in all, Whaler's and Kauai are beautiful and well worth the long flight. We will be back!

Aloha! We spent our honeymoon in Kauai. We had 10 amazing nights at Whalers Cove. The condo we were in was an end unit on the top floor. It was amazing. It reminded us of the villa we were engaged at, in Acapulco Mexico. The condo was completely remodeled- the floors were travertine, gorgeous travertine baths in both the master and guest bathroom. There is a window in the master shower with a million dollar view! The house was fully furnished with Ethan Allen- new fixtures- a great CD collection- fully stocked kitchen and new appliances. The deck was the perfect place for late night chats with a bottle of wine or an afternoon sunbathing. In the mornings I spent time on the deck with a cup on Kona coffee and watched dolphins and snorkelers on the shore. The condo has no beach but one is not needed. The proximity to Poipu beach park and Mahaulepu is enough. The condo has a great pool, hottub and sunbathing deck that is barely used. There are several gas grills available for cooking as well. Sunset from the lawn in front of the condos is unrivaled and you won't be vi'ing for space as you would be near the beach house restaurant and beach. As wonderful as this was, you must make a request about the unit you want. Each are individually owned, not all are updated or remodeled. Originally we were put in a huge unit that wasn't updated and was on a ground floor. We asked to move and were completly accomadated. The staff was absolutely wonderful. There is a small cove that is popular with sea turtles, the attached pictures are from the rocks in that cove. Everything about our condo was private, comfortable and accomadating. Enjoy and mahalo! :)
