Fantastic!

We loved this studio unit - best studio at the Whaler we've stayed in. The unit was very nicely decorated and the new carpet was so plush. The host provided some wonderful extras making us feel very welcome and at home. With it being on the 3rd floor we were able to use the stairs but yet it was up high enough to have fantastic views. We ate meals out on the lanai while watching the whales and enjoyed some wonderful sunsets. Just a fantastic experience and one we would love to repeat if only there were some open dates. Mahalo for sharing your lovely home!

Studio was perfect.

The studio is sweet. The bed sleeps well,..in fact the pillows we used for sleeping were so so so nice!! The lanai is perfect with a high table and two tall chairs that we loved using! The view is really nice. The tv in the room is large and smart, so we were able to log in to amazon and Netflix. It's a very nice space. Our vacation was perfect!! PS just off the bathroom area there's a little "room"/large closet with a dresser. It's a great place to stash your suitcase etc...The owner was so very easy to communicate with.

Fabulous condo & owner

This was my third stay at The Whaler and this is the best condo I have stayed in. It was spotlessly clean, well maintained and had lots of little extras for a comfortable stay (books, board games, fully equipped kitchen, beach chairs & umbrellas, bathroom & cleaning supplies). Sadly, I arrived the day before the fires started so didn’t get to enjoy it. The owner very kindly refunded my payment. I didn’t ask, she just did it. Thank you for your kindness, Ethel. I am very grateful and hope to return when Maui has recovered from this awful tragedy.

Maui Wow-ee

The condo was immaculate and felt very at home. Everything was available to cook with, clean with and even books to read on the veranda. Waking up each morning to the sound of the ocean was calming and at peace. To be just steps from the beach where you can snorkel with sea turtles and fish was truly amazing. This was by far the best vacation we have had. With plans to visit The Whaler again. Ethel Grant was there for us when we had questions and kept us "in the loop" with the process. We will be back Ethel, the location of the condo was priceless. Ken and Lorrie

313 at the Whaler

Ethel was very easy to get in touch with and answered the booking and any follow up questions promptly. The property at the Whaler is beautiful with beachfront access and short proximity to the mall and other resorts, it severed us well. The room itself is a little dated but comes with a beautiful ocean view to start or finish the day off and has all supplies within the unit to make for a good holiday. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.

The condos are mostly privately owned. Well taken care of the facilities are quiet, clean, and very charming. When we come to Maui, we only stay at the Whaler and our friends house.

Love the place

We love the place, the property, the proximity to shopping, eateries and the walk-out to the beach and boardwalk. We have great response from the property owner and always great service. We've stayed 3 years in a row at this same unit. We would like to see some upgrades with new carpeting and fixtures to make it even more appealing.

Location and views met our expectations, however.

The unit is dated, needs some attention to detail. Reminded me of an old cliche, you get what you pay for. Ethel the owner was very easy to deal with and responded to all my questions and needs in a timely manner. Kitchen was well stocked and chairs, umbrella and cooler came in handy. Getting the TV to work on a consistent basis was challenging, instructions to operate are outdated and don’t match the current channel changer, had to have maintenance come up twice to fix. Also, might consider updating the TV in this unit. We had no wash cloths or Kleenex tissue for our 9 night stay. This was my 7th stay at The Whaler and the first time in a studio, the other 6 times were either a 1BR/1BA or 1BR/2BA, for future stays will be going back to the the 1BR units. Lastly I want to thank Ethel for the late check out on our last day, it helped a lot.
