We just returned from a fabulous girls getaway and George's condo was perfect all around. The location is stellar with walking access to all the amenities at Wharfers Village - an ABC market, lots of eateries and restaurants and a beautiful beach. The condo itself was very comfortable with lots of room for the three of us and we enjoyed being able to have snacks and breakfast on the balcony, overlooking the ocean. We'll definitely be back!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beach condo. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The view of the ocean was breathtaking, and loved being just steps away from the beach. The balcony was perfect for morning coffee and evening sunsets. The condo was stocked with thoughtful touches that made if feel like home. Communication with the host was easy and quick, which made checking in and our whole stay stress-free. We can't wait to come back-highly recommend this condo for anyone looking for the perfect beach vacation

Perfect Location

Whalers resort was a perfect location for a family of four. With two teens, the condo was spacious with two good size bathrooms, and a perfectly stocked kitchen. Everyone had their own comfortable bed to sleep on. The patio was perfect for Ocean view. Being able to use the car was a huge plus we were able to drive to Wailea, Kapalua, and Pai’a. We would definitely consider staying there again.
