This is the best location on Maui in my opinion. Excellent beach, and proximity to Whaler's Village with the variety of shops and restaurants is excellent. The location of this particular unit within the Whaler is also very good with a great ocean view from the balcony. The unit itself is functional and served our needs, however it is grimy, old and dated. The ceiling tiles in the bathroom are nasty and need a serious cleaning. We knew what we were getting into, and as we stayed at a very busy time of year, we were satisfied with what we got. However, this unit could be fantastic with a small amount of money invested in some critical updates, and you would have a waiting list a mile long! We would definitely consider this unit again if it got just a few updates.
