The kitchen has the necessary items to make almost anything you can imagine. If cooking in the kitchen is not your thing then the BBQ might make you happy (just outside the lanai on ground floor.) The lanai that has all brand new furniture looks to the south which gives the unit good light all day.

We really like the unit and The Whalers community. Unit has everything you need including beach gears. There is an amazing view from the balcony! We will be back.
My family and I had an amazing stay in this outstanding property! Everything was clean, modern, and well-appointed. The location couldn’t be better — right on the beach and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. There is a wonderful 5-mile beachwalk trail along the ocean that I ran every day. Our favorite part was the spacious lanai, where we enjoyed sunrises and sunsets. The owner’s closet was well stocked with boogie boards, snorkeling gear, beach chairs, etc. Highly recommend this jewel of a property!!
Doug was easy to communicate with and he has a fully stocked condo, in a beautiful and convenient location. Steps from the beach, restaurants, and shopping. We had an amazing time and can't wait to return.
We loved staying here. Perfect location and a great beach spot and so conveniently located next to all the restaurants and stores. We especially appreciated our specific unit; between the awesome lanai, great views, comfortable beds and fully stocked owners closet with Beach and snorkeling gear, we really couldn’t have asked for anything more.
My husband and I have stayed all along the Kaanapali beach area. We found Doug’s Whaler condo to be the best. It is well stocked, comfortable bed and a great location.
Great location and amenities. The place is exactly as shown in the pictures. It is clean and provides with all the amenities you need with well stocked kitchen. A plus is having the beach chairs and toys for your use! Doug provided with very clear and detailed instructions for a comfortable stay. Thank you for having us!
Doug has just about everything you would need. We used the couch pull-out bed and roll-away bed. Both were great for sleeping. Everything was clean. The washer and dryer were a godsend. Aloha!
The condo was spacious and very well appointed. It was beautifully decorated and fully equipped with everything we needed for a wonderful Maui vacation. We enjoyed the view of the ocean from the balcony, even spotting whales in the distance now and then. The condo is in a very good location. The beach is great for walks, either on the sand or on the paved walkway. Next door to the condo building is a shopping center with great shops and restaurants. Doug’s instructions were so helpful, not just for the condo information, but also for helping us plan our stay. Overall, it was the perfect place to stay.
We really enjoyed our week at the Whalers. Loved the view. There was always lots of the comings and going’s with catamarans taking groups out for tours. There were parasailing boats as well. We found there was plenty of delicious restaurants within walking distance when we didn’t want to cook. We thought the kitchen in the condo had everything we needed and we appreciated the little personal touches of bathroom toiletries, tissues, laundry detergent & softener, plus dishwasher soap and Dawn. There were also plenty of hand soap dispensers. Having our own washer/dryer was a plus. We didn’t use the beach equipment but it was well stocked. We had a fun, relaxing week!!! Thank you!

Super Accommodations
We just recently returned from our Maui vacation and spent 9 days in this condo. This condo thoroughly exceeded our expectations. The description listed is accurate but oh so much more beautiful in person! The condo was our "home away from home." The property was clean and well maintained. The condo has been remodeled recently and was done so nicely! The condo was well stocked with all the kitchen amenities you could ask for and more! There was a closet (pantry) with many extras as well. My son loved playing with the sand buckets, the boogie board, and even the floatie provided by the owners. We enjoyed many activities during the day but when we came home in the evening we always enjoyed opening the lanai doors and listening to the music from the Hula Grill or listening to the ocean waves. We marveled at the views of Ka'anapali Beach from the lanai and even spotted dolphins, from the lanai, swimming at the bow of one of the boats! How amazing is that? We really enjoyed the shady side of this tower. It was a great floor to be on as well...not too high, not too low. You could see everything from the location of this condo. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to call this condo your "home away from home" during vacation. I cannot say enough great things about our experience working with the owners as well. They were so prompt to respond to any questions we had while booking this unit. They were also very prompt in asking about how our vacation stay was when we returned. We will definitely book this unit again when we return to Maui!
We rented the unit for a month and it was great. It was very comfortable and very well appointed. We really appreciated having the washer and dryer in the unit. We would recommend this unit to any of our friends traveling to Maui. We love the property!
Overall, one of the nicest and most convenient places we have stayed away from home. Condo has everything you need for preparing meals with fully stocked kitchen and grills by the pool. Comfortable beds. Great location right on the beach with amazing view from balcony. Owners closet has everything you need to enjoy the beach. You will not be disappointed.
The condo was in a perfect location (on the beach and next door to whaler’s village) and has wonderful amenities. The condo was spacious and has a large lanai with a great view of the ocean. I would highly recommend staying here and I hope to be back soon!
It has everything. Attentive owner. Gorgeous ocean view. Comfy beds. Adjacent to Whaler’s Village. Short walk to snorkeling at Black Rock and surfing near Marriott. I could go on and on. I’ll be back.
The location is fantastic and easy to get to, and the condo provides a great array of beach gear that is very handy to have. We had everything we needed for the stay and enjoyed both the pool and the beach, as well as the ease of access to the next door shopping/eating center. The owner was extremely accommodating when we asked to set up a late checkout, going far out of his way to arrange something comfortable for an elderly parent. His help was very much appreciated.
The Whaler condo is located in the best location on Kaanapali! The condo itself is very modern, exceptionally clean and well-stocked (for example, ziplock bags, snorkeling gear for kids and adults, lawn chairs, floaties). The beds, including sofa sleeper were very comfortable. We watched the sunset on the lanai (that extends the entire length of condo, and has separate slider from main bedroom), we walked next door to Whalers Village multiple times a day, and enjoyed the pool, and hot tub, and beach outside our front door, daily. Perfect condo for family, as it is really spacious.
We will stay here again! Thank you for an unforgettable vacation!!!
Loved the location, near restaurants and things to do. Property was gorgeous and well kept. Room was well furnished and perfect for our family of 5. Pull out couch bed was very comfortable! Would definitely stay here again!
We really enjoyed staying at Doug’s condo. Very spacious and comfortable. Great view of Kaanapali beach. Close to restaurants and shopping. Beautiful grounds.
This kind of was amazing. Best condo I've stayed at so far. This is my 12th time to Maui.
My family and I loved this condo. I've been to Maui at least 13 times and this is the nicest condo I've ever stayed in. We used every bed and even the fold out couch and I slept on that and it felt like heaven. All the decor was high-end and everything was stocked very well. There was even a closet with flotation devices and other toys board games and an umbrella. I'm definitely going to save this condo for future visits to Maui.
This unit was terrific. Very clean and just as described, I wish I could live here. The condo is exceptionally well stocked with absolutely everything we needed. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a VRBO with a better stocked kitchen. The Whaler is in the best possible location, central to everything and literally steps from Whalers Village. The front desk staff and all employees at the Whaler were very friendly and helpful with anything we needed. We’ll definitely stay here again!
Doug was fantastic to work with, always quickly responded to our questions. The condo was perfect. We are a family of 4 and our kids are getting too big to share a bed so having both the pull out couch and roll away bed was perfect for us, as well as having 2 bathrooms. The condo is fully stocked with pretty much everything you would need. Doug even allows the use of his owners closet so you have beach chairs, umbrella’s, boogie boards, sand toys, etc. The Whaler provides beach towels daily. The staff at the Whaler was great as well, friendly and helpful. The location is great right next to Whaler’s village plenty of restaurants and shopping. We would highly recommend this condo and already have to family and friends.
