The location is perfect! We had 2 teens with us and they had lots of options to explore. We rented snorkel gear and loved being able to walk to black rock and snorkel. The kitchen is the best stocked kitchen I’ve been in. There were lots of beach chairs and umbrellas. While we enjoyed the view from the balcony Whalers Village is very close.

We had a wonderful stay in Maui and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in Kaanapali. From the beginning, everything was easy and well organized, and the property had everything we needed to make our vacation enjoyable.The amenities were especially great for our family. Having access to beach chairs, umbrellas, and kids’ sand toys was a huge convenience and saved us from having to purchase or pack those items ourselves. The location was fantastic, and it was easy to enjoy the beach, pool, and everything Kaanapali has to offer. The condo was comfortable, well equipped, and made a great home base for our family while we explored Maui.The owner was also excellent to work with. Communication was easy, and he was responsive, helpful, and provided all of the information and updates we needed throughout our stay. It was clear that he genuinely wanted us to have a great experience.Overall, we had a great vacation and were very happy with our stay. The combination of the location, amenities, comfortable accommodations, and a great owner made this a place we would happily stay at again. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and family visiting Maui!

We have stayed at several different units at the Whaler, but this was the Best!! George was a very responsive host. The unit was huge for 2 people! Upon entering, the ambience was immediately created with hawaiian landscapes and music on the tv's. The special touches left by the cleaning crew was very impressive. Everything we could possibly need for a wonderful vacation was available in this unit. Will definitely book again!

We just returned from a fabulous girls getaway and George's condo was perfect all around. The location is stellar with walking access to all the amenities at Wharfers Village - an ABC market, lots of eateries and restaurants and a beautiful beach. The condo itself was very comfortable with lots of room for the three of us and we enjoyed being able to have snacks and breakfast on the balcony, overlooking the ocean. We'll definitely be back!
