PEST CONTROL AND ROOSTERS: Due to Maui’s rural location you may experience the occasional rooster, as well as harmless geckos. Geckos are friendly, eat insects, and are considered good luck in Hawaii. Please don’t kill them. The HOA schedules regular professional pest control services for pests such as ants, roaches, and rodents however they cannot be completely controlled in this part of the world.

Hawaii is located in a tropical climate, and insects, rodents, and lizards flourish in this environment. If our guest spot more than the normal expected pests, we always make our best efforts to contact and work with the HOA to minimize your interactions with these pests. Our units are meticulously cleaned and inspected. Any contact with such pests within or outside the unit does not constitute a breach of this Agreement or give Guest any right to any refund or rental adjustment. Our units are meticulously cleaned and inspected.

*We make no guarantee that properties around to the Unit will be free from disturbances, including but not limited to noise or inconvenience from construction, traffic, or other guests. Any such disturbance shall not constitute a breach of this rental or give guest any right to any refund, or rental adjustment.

Beautiful property!

This is the third time we've stayed at the Whaler and the first time at this property because we only needed a one bedroom condo. It has recently been completely renovated and it is just beautiful and well-appointed. It is on the quiet side of the resort with a fantastic view of Black Rock and neighboring island Molokai. We will definitely be returning to this beautiful property!

Great location

We had an excellent stay at Whaler 508. It is quiet, comfortable and perfectly located near Black Rock and Whalers Village. Everything was exactly as described and it is a wonderful play to stay - I cannot think of one thing wrong!

Family getaway

Stayed for 4 days in Kaanapali, chose the Whaler for its close proximity to the village, dining and steps to the pool and beach. The condo felt like home away from home, the kids loved using the boogie boards and swimming with the turtles just downstairs from our unit. Kitchen is well equipped, we made breakfast every morning and ate it on the lanai, the grill area downstairs is super convenient, we dined next door at Monkey pod and Leilani's which are fabulous. We could live here, and we will certainly be back. When we transitioned to our location in Wailea, everyone missed the convenience of the condo immediately. Thank you!

February in Maui is Fabulous!

This unit provided the perfect environment for our winter get-away. The unit is on the quiet side of the complex with wonderful views of the beach and Black Rock. We loved listening to the waves crash through the open windows. I wish we had thought to bring binoculars but even without them, we could see whales from the lanai and the beach. I was shocked at how close they are to the beach. My husband was happy to lounge on the balcony and read between our adventuring out. The kitchen is fully equipped and up-to-date. We didn't do much cooking, but breakfast was easy and we felt fortunate to have access to a full kitchen. Stay Aloha shared a lovely welcome basket packed with Hawaiian treats. We appreciated having coffee available on our first morning without having to go to the grocery store. The bed in this unit was the most comfortable that we have ever slept on! I would absolutely buy the same type for my own home. I had anticipated having to use the Murphy Bed in the living room, but the bed was so great that I was never disturbed by husband's usual twitching and moving throughout the night. It was perfect - best sleep ever! Beach chairs and umbrella are available for tenant use. Boogie boards and beach reads were also on hand. We had a little bit of a learning curve to figure out the TV (Super Bowl) and called the property manager - super responsive and polite. We will be back!

Beautiful Unit and Amazing Management Company

First of all this unit is in the top 10% of whaler units you can find (in terms of cleanliness, quality of furnishings, and it has been recently and nicely remodeled - completely). But secondly, the property manager is first class and extremely accommodating and responsive. Highly Recommended!
