“Very pretty location, with room and comfort.”
Whalers' Cove is a great location, beautiful grounds and ocean view. This is a great spot for families. Having a kitchen and 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms created great comfort, convienience and privacy. Lots of parking and nice quiet area. Our condo was very clean with newly renovated bathrooms. We did have one of two sinks that did not drain in the master bath, which was a pain the entire week- we survived it. We would go back!!
“Not impressed”
Poor maintanence of individual units. No housekeeping happens on Sundays - I think this is unacceptable. The staff are not receptive to suggestions, and are not accomodating. There is no business office, or computer that is available for internet use.
“Very private and beautiful”
Wonderful experience. Great staff. A lot of privacy and a wonderful condo. Views are fabulous. We were upgraded to ocean front and very pleased. It is "off the beaten track" which worked very well for us. The only negative was that the beds are hard but we did purchase and also were provided those "egg crates" to make the mattress softer, which helped a lot, but that was the only negative thing I can say. I'd go back there in a minute.
“A perfect romantic getaway”
Whaler's Cove was perfect for us - gorgeous ocean views, delightful pool and deck, and full kitchen. We enjoyed breakfast every morning on the gorgeous lanai at our own pace, cooked in two evenings (wonderfully romantic!) We enjoyed sneaking down to the cove in the evenings to check on the sea turtles that hang out there. The entire South Shore is easily accessible, and the place is quiet and private.
“very nice location”
We stayed at this condo complex for four days on our first trip to Hawaii. The hotel is located in an excellent area and the apartment that we stayed in was very nice. We had originally requested an oceanview room and were upgraded to an oceanfront because many rooms were unbooked. We loved that apartment. From our room and our living room, we could hear the waves crashing into the rocks. That was one of first phrases my toddler learned in Hawaii. The only thing that we wished we had was a little more help from the hotel staff in terms of where to go and what to do. Usually, during daytime, there is one person who can help you, but she does many things so she is not willing to spend too much time on giving you vacation advice. Then, she leaves at 5pm and the office is closed on the weekends so there is no help. For a person who is familiar with the island, that should not be a problem, but we were quite green so we made a few bad choices and wasted a lot of time driving around.
