Great location in the complex. Wonderful views of the ocean, mountains, beautiful koi ponds and sunsets. Lots of sun and shade on the decks. Extra refrigerator drawers are an amazing bonus. Condo is comfortable and spacious. The second bathroom is more spacious than most 2 bedrooms in complex due to good renovation choices. Beds and bedding are very comfortable but can’t speak to the pullouts since we didn’t use them. Well stocked condo (amazing that they have 2 umbrellas and just note that one has a better frame for wind so if you don’t need both use that one for sure). Owner and property management were excellent to deal with.
The location of The Whaler is ideal and steps away from the beach, restaurants, shopping and a short walk or drive to any activity you'd be interested in on Maui. The property was beautiful and the accommodations in the condo were high end and made us feel like we were in a home away from home. Words can't express how spectacular the views are from the lanai. We enjoyed the sunrise over the mountains and the sunset over the ocean. Page was friendly and welcoming and quick to respond to any questions. We will definitely be returning and recommending to others!
Page was lovely to work with and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

The Whaler is our FAVORITE place to stay in Maui! The location is perfect--it is close to everything, but it never feels crowded. Only a few steps from Whaler's Village in one direction and Black Rock in the other direction.
The pool and hot tub offer a great break from the beach, easy access to amenities including towel pickup and dropoff, beach chairs and a fitness room. This 2 bedroom condo is perfect for families--everyone has room to move, plus laundry to dry wet suits, wash your daughter's favorite sweatshirt, etc.
The kitchen is well stocked! I appreciated the little things too, including ziplock bags and coffee filters. Eating in Maui is expensive so it helps to be able to make breakfast and lunch most days. There are large community grills on the main floor. We saw plenty of people grilling while laughing and sharing a Mai Tai.
The condo also has plenty of books to read by the beach, and board games to play when you need a break from the sun.
The sensor stopped working on one of the AC controllers, but the property manager had it fixed within a few hours.
What more could you ask for?!?
Thank you for hosting us Page! We hope to be back!

As so many reviews have already stated, the condo is wonderfully equipped and furnished, and enjoys gorgeous views towards both the mountains (which ended up being my favorite view, surprisingly) and the ocean. Page, the owner and host, was responsive, helpful, and friendly -- just a pleasure to deal with, especially when we were concerned about what the area would be like to visit after the Lahaina fire. You won't find a nicer home away from home in Kaanapali.
Beautiful condo, Luxurious. Incredible views of both the mountainside and ocean. We watched the whales from the Lanai every day. Amazing sunsets. Furnishings are gorgeous and owner spared no expense. The kitchen? Wow! All high-end appliances, and stocked with everything you need. Page, the owner of the property, is always available and communicated with us from the time of booking, to arrival, etc. I have stayed at the Whaler 10+ times. This was, by far, the BEST unit (and I have stayed in other fabulous 2-bedroom units. Thank you Page!
The unit was better than advertised. SO MUCH natural light! Beautiful views. And the space is LARGE. We have a family of 5 and felt like we could have stayed a month. Page was great to work with as well.
The Whaler is one of the best places to stay on Maui and this is one of the best condos. Walks on the beach and snorkeling at Black Rock. Recommend Trilogy for a sunset sail + whale watching.
I have been going to Maui and staying at the Whaler for years now. This unit is everything you would want and more. From the location to the amenities this unit provides it all.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this beautiful condo. We have stayed on this property in the past but it was the first time staying at this unit, it was the best. The condo is equipped with everything you need and more and it is beautifully furnished as well. Location is perfect too. We will definitely book this condo on our next visit.

This was an amazing property. Great location right next to Whaler’s Village making it easy for food and fun. Great views of both the ocean and the mountains. The owner was very easy to work with. The condominium was clean. Well maintained. The entire whaler condominium complex is excellent.
We had a family of five and plenty of space. I highly recommend this property and location to anybody with families. Cancel

The property was beautiful. Right on the beach. We had an incredible view of the mountains and the beach. We had plenty of room for all six of us. The balcony was great. Seating for everyone. We spent most of the time when in the condo on that balcony just soaking in the view.

Perfect place for our 4 adults and one two year old. We had 4 adults staying in another unit on property and Page and her unit were way better. Our room was the hang out and meeting place. The outdoor table was great for the 9 of us to gather around. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again.

We were really excited to have a large space to call home for a week or so and feel comfortable as if it were our own home. When we arrived the place did not disappoint It was very elegant and gorgeous inside. The only thing better were the views. The wrap around lanai lets you take in both a spectacular mountain view and an almost direct ocean view. Both bathrooms were wonderfully appointed. From the jacuzzi tub to the rain shower we absolutely loved coming back to the unit. The location was perfect being next door to Whalers village for food and shopping. The beach was perfect for relaxing in the sand and swimming all day. Simply perfect. We would book again and again. Thank you for a wonderful visit to Maui
