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.

We so appreciated the complimentary waters and coffee upon arrival :-) We love staying at the Whaler, and I would not hesitate to book this particular unit again in a heartbeat. Thank you!!

Location is perfect! I've stayed in many different units at the Whaler for the last 20 years. We did have to put a sheet over the sofa and had a couple stained towels. Otherwise, manager was responsive and we would definitely stay there again.

After the Lahaina fires, we returned home to help my elderly parents whose heydays included the first hotel built in Kaanapali. Having stayed at the majority of resorts here over the years, I highly recommend this hidden gem & experience the staff’s true spirit of aloha.

It’s the perfect little space for a quick getaway for 2 people. Oversized balcony is a real plus with the beautiful ocean view!! We will definitely come again!!
