Very nice room. FANTASTIC staff. We arrived on a Friday night. We were initially given a room with a scheduled closed balcony for Monday-Friday (for painting). This was unacceptable so we asked for a different room. The staff was very helpful in relocating us to an even better room with a corner balcony. The pool is nice. We were very surprised there was minimal “pressure” on the loungers with umbrellas that we’ve routinely encountered at other nearby resorts. One downside - no pool bar. Bring your own cooler with drinks! The bellman was especially nice and friendly. We observed more folks in our (senior) age range than younger folk which was fine by us! The beach here is awesome - the best on Kaanapali Beach, IMO. Underground parking right below Tower 1 was great. Just be back before, say, 7-8 PM. Proximity to Whalers Village is an huge plus. Overall, the Whaler was a very enjoyable resort.

Second time staying at this location. Pricing is great and the location is optimal. We are already planning another trip. The rooms are awesome with plenty of space, the kitchen makes it so you don’t have to eat out every day.

The only things I can complain about was the pool, my backyard pool if better, and the parking. There was zero underground parking at night. and a long haul from above ground.

We were very pleasantly surprised at how well run The Whaler is. We weren’t sure what to expect knowing that all of the units are privately owned, but it was run essentially like a hotel, with a concierge desk, front desk, house keeping etc. Everything was very clean, including all walkways, elevators and bathrooms near the reception desk. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with everything. We will definitely be back!

We went with another couple and loved the walkability of the area. The staff were fabulous, the gardens were impeccable, parking was easy. What we did NOT know is that we were getting a room (apartment) that belongs to someone renting out their place to tourists. There were a couple of things that could have used a fresher-upper, but it was a lovely apartment with a great view. Generally it was SO good and we WILL be back (but maybe not THAT particular apartment).

Disliked: Room comfort

Terrible management!

We booked a 1-BR oceanfront unit weeks in advance, but when it came time to check in at 4 pm they did not have any such units available and tried to put us in a 2-BR oceanfront unit that was in the middle of lanai construction instead. This construction not only blocked half the view but meant workers would be there all day. We refused to accept the unit and asked to speak to a manager, but all managers had left for the day even though it was check-in time. They finally gave us a lower category unit 2 hours later and said they would give us a price credit the next day, but one week later they have yet to process the credit. This is the worst hotel experience I've had in many years of active traveling.
