Lovely stay at The Whaler

This was our second time staying in this unit at the Whaler and we will certainly be back! The location can't be beat. Beach is beautiful, nice walking path, shops and restaurants in close proximity, and easy drives to explore more of the island. The unit meets all of our needs, was clean, and has a great view. We extended our trip while we were there and the property manager was helpful and responsive. Definitely recommend!

Anniversary in Ka'anapali

The Condo was perfect for our needs. Clean and spacious for a studio. Immediately next to Whaler's Village, with shops, restaurants, and ABC store. Parking was free, or included with relatively small resort fee. Free chairs for beach use provided near the pool area. No concerns, we hope to stay there again!

Nice time

Everyone was very pleasant and had plenty of signs about wearing masks. Good location for going on walks. The only bad thing was that even though there were signs about not leaving your chair at the pool vacant for more than 30 minutes, we saw quite a few doing just that and would stake out their chairs and not be in the pool, but were perhaps at the beach - for the whole day! The resort needs more chairs on the grounds and in the shade.

Property canceled the day before we were to arrive.

Property canceled the day before we were to arrive. Fortunately the property management was able to find another unit. The owner should have let us know way before the day ahead. The unit was being remodeled. Not sure we can trust VRBO for future vacations.

Great property!

We had an awesome trip! A few snafus with the management company (they changed our room AFYER we paid, room was very sandy upon checkin, they told us we could have a very late checkout and we agreed on time, then on the day before checkout, they cut off 4 hours, which caused us to have to cancel plans). Outside of the management company, the property and room are fantastic!
