The location of the Whaler is fantastic. All rooms have a view of the ocean. In this unit, the kitchen is well stocked and beautifully remodeled. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Would definitely stay here again!

We have stayed at the Whaler any times in the past and it is one of our favorite places in the world. The resort is fine but I would not stay in this unit again. It was advertised as being recently remodeled which is not true. The carpet was filthy and the bathroom floor had hair all over it when we checked in. The kitchen may have had new countertops but I don’t think the bathroom had been touched since it was built in the sixties. I personally removed two roaches from the unit the day we checked in. We love the Whaler and its location but we would choose a different unit next time.

The Whaler is a terrific place to stay in Maui. My wife and I were both very happy we choose this property. The room was beyond our expectations, very comfortable and the view was awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone. Right next to Whalers Village with dozens of shops and great places to eat all along the beach. We will be definitely be back!

The location was perfect, walking distance to restaurants and shops. The beach is clean with great snorkeling right off the shore. Our unit was well equipped, clean with a really nice ocean view. We’ll be back!! The management company was very responsive, helpful and answered all our questions without delay.

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed in unit 1216 managed by The Whaler in June 2022. From the moment we checked in we felt unwelcome by the condescending staff. Staff barely acknowledged us when we arrived at the front desk for check in, we felt like we were bothering them by checking into our room. Our room card didn’t work and they made us go up and down 3 times to check to see if the new card worked. Luckily we are both 30 years old so the hike up and down wasn’t too bad. No one assisted us with our bags when we arrived so we used one of the “amenity shopping carts” to transport our luggage. We paid a 300 dollar fee upon arrival and 200 dollars after check out. During our stay, we asked staff for clean bath towels but were told we weren’t entitled to those because that wasn’t included in the fees we paid. Staff told us we can wash our own towels. There was also a giant hole in the ceiling above the shower which made noise throughout our entire stay. When we went to exchange the pool towels we paid for, the guy Joseph was extremely rude and condescending and made us feel so small for asking for clean towels. Overall, we had a horrible experience at The Whaler. The next time we return to Maui, we will not be staying here or recommending this place to our friends and family.
