Beautifully maintained property with awesome views of the the beach and Kaanapali golf course from the spacious lanai. The room was clean and spacious as well. Excellent location on the beach with a boardwalk that stretches a ways with walking access to shops and restaurants. If we come back, we will definitely look to stay at this propert again.

Aloha Steve and mahalo for your comments. This unit does indeed have awesome views of both the ocean and mountains, and we're happy to know that you found the unit clean and spacious. The resort is definitely in a prime location for easy access to shops & restaurants! It was our pleasure to host you and we hope to see you again. With aloha, MRR
Quiet, comfortable, clean and well-stocked. Exactly what we were looking for - really enjoyed time out on the lanai. Great location and property. We’d definitely stay again!
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely condo. So spacious and well equipped with everything we needed. Wonderful views of Black Rock Beach. Great location right on the beach and next to the shops and restaurants at Whalers Village. We highly recommend this condo.

Mahalo for staying with us, David. We are so glad you enjoyed the property!
Wonderful condo, nice layout. Great view of the ocean and black rock. Only small thing was the lanai was getting work done and was not accessible during the day with a lot of construction noise for a couple days. To be fair they did list that at the end of the description. Overall this place was great and I would recommend it!

Aloha Alexander ~ Mahalo for your comments. We’re glad you enjoyed the condo and its layout. The view of Black Rock and the ocean is indeed very nice, and we’re sorry for the construction noise and that the lanai was not accessible during the day. We’re glad that overall you and had a great stay and appreciate your recommendation. We hope to see you again someday. With aloha, MRR
Overall it was wonderful. Great location and views. Condo was clean ,comfortable, spacious and great view. The only thing that could be improved upon is the bed. I am 5'2 and weigh 125 lbs. and I could feel the springs. It was also very hard. A mattress topper would help immensely. Also all the pillows were old ,flat and hard.

Thank you Vicki! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We will pass the comments regarding the bed along to our quality assurance team. We hope to see you again soon!
This condo had a great view of black rock, and it was so nice to be up on the 10th floor. It was totally updated and had beautiful furnishings. The kitchen was also updated and had new appliances. It didn't have a washer and dryer, but this condo is very close to the community one located by the elevators. It was always open when we needed to use it. There were 2 huge closets with lots of hangers. They had 2 beach chairs and an umbrella as well as 2 soft coolers. We would highly recommend this property and would stay here again.
I looked at about a hundred rental properties & am so glad we picked this one! It checked all the boxes for us: stunning views of both ocean & mountain, gorgeous huge lanai (or balcony as we say in the Midwest), updated decor with comfortable bed, beautiful pool, steps away from the sandy beach, super convenient parking, paved walkway along beach that takes you to Whalers Village next door for morning coffee, shopping, lunch, dinner, or drinks! Terrific location on Kaanapali Beach. I was concerned that our view didn’t completely face the ocean, but the ocean view was spectacular! You are so close to the ocean that you can hear the waves while enjoying the sunset to the west, or turn to the east and enjoy sunrise over the lush mountain! Check-in was smooth and we truly appreciated Maui Resort Rentals emailing us early in our stay to make sure all was going well.
This was our first trip to Maui with our 8 year old son. The property was clean, close to restaurants and the beach, and had a convenient laundry on the same floor. We were very comfortable in the unit, with more than enough space for all of us. The view was beautiful and we enjoyed having coffee and breakfast on the terrace. We were lucky enough to extend our stay an additional night. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to cook. The beach chairs came in handy but the umbrella broke due to heavy winds on the beach…no fault of the owner or management company. We were told that this was a common problem and unfortunately there were no replacement umbrellas. Do not hesitate to book!
It was our second time staying at The Whaler. This unit was AMAZING! Beautiful ocean view and newer furnishings. The king mattress was on the firmer side which I liked, and sofa bed had comfortable memory foam. We didn’t cook but the kitchen had everything you would need. I was pleasantly surprised to find 2 boogie boards, in addition to the beach chairs and umbrella. The free washer/dryer on each floor was nice to have. The beautiful beach right in front of the property never felt too crowded even though it’s next to all the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed grabbing coffee and acai bowls at Island Vintage Coffee in the mornings, then heading over to Black Rock for snorkeling. The management for this unit was very easy to work with, and always responded to my emails promptly. Thank you for a wonderful stay, can’t wait to be back!
Recently renewed apartment. Only steps from the beach—great location on one of the best beaches of Maui. Can't wait to return next year.
