After the Lahaina fires, we returned home to help my elderly parents whose heydays included the first hotel built in Kaanapali. Having stayed at the majority of resorts here over the years, I highly recommend this hidden gem & experience the staff’s true spirit of aloha.

Great room and centrally located next to Whalers Village. Walking distance to many spots along Kaanapali beach. Was not notified that parking is first come first served. Garage parking is usually full and overflow lots are really close so it wasn’t a big deal really. Would come back for sure.

Natural disaster

We were at the Whaler during the fires and we understand it was a natural disaster so our input is clouded by this disaster. Our hearts go out to all the families and everyone that was impacted. The staff at the Whaler was incredible and did a great job in managing the situation. We hope to return again and hopefully we will have a better time.
