Studio #1118: The Whaler is always great. Its a perfect location on a beautiful beach with plenty of parking and a great oceanfront pool for any windy days where the sand is kicking up too much at the beach. This condo is also great. It has everything we needed. Huge fridge, microwave, stove, toaster, dishwasher, large closet with plenty of hangers and a clean bathroom. Well definitely try to book this one again in the future.

1-Bedroom #370: I have stayed in many condos at the Whaler and they dont disappoint. This one is great too and would come back! It has been updated but not as well appointed as some where they invested more. For example the master bathroom. There are some huge, luxurious ones in some of the other 1 bedroom condos at the Whaler but this is more of a standard bathroom. That being said, it is a great condo and properly priced (its a little less expensive, I assume because location is set back and renos arent as luxurious and washer and dryer not in suite). No problem using the shared, free washer and dryer on the floor. Not in use whenever I wanted to use it, in suite there was laundry soap and front desk provided some for free also. Didnt use the murphy bed so cant comment on its comfort. The balcony is great and the view is lovely. Many suites dont have the counter height table and chairs but this one does so when you are sitting at the table on that lanai you see over the railing whereas when standard height you are looking through the railings. Condo has two beach chairs and an high quality beach umbrella which was great. The inner courtyard and partial ocean view are lovely. I like that the lanai often provides shade because in the other tower it is almost always in the sun so hot and sun in your eyes. I head down to the beach for sunset so I like the trade off of a shady lanai after being out in the hot sun. Overall would come back to this condo at the Whaler and can recommend!

1-Bedroom #1074: Wonderful unit at our favorite spot! Weve stayed many times at the Whaler and in a number of different units. This unit is among the nicer ones weve stayed in, with all the important elements well maintained - very clean, quiet ceiling fans, no moldy smell, and most furnishings and accoutrements in good repair. The two beach chairs were nice to have access to for beach days, and simple things like a small cold bag and some ice packs in the freezer made beach snacks easy. This was a working holiday for both of us, so having the good WiFi in the unit was a definite plus.

1-Bedroom #411: First time staying in Tower 1 (courtyard side). The sun shines on the lanai all day. We could only use it in the early morning or after sunset. We usually stay in Tower 2. Shade all day. We still loved 411 and will stay there again. Beautiful.

Studio #963: The Condo was perfect for our needs. Clean and spacious for a studio. Immediately next to Whalers Village, with shops, restaurants, and ABC store. Parking was free, or included with relatively small resort fee. Free chairs for beach use provided near the pool area. No concerns, we hope to stay there again!

2-Bedroom #923: Cant speak highly enough of how well maintained this condo is. The wrap around patio for both mountain and ocean views never got old during our 5 day visit. Being right next to the village was incredibly convenient for meals, shopping, and small groceries when needed. The beach right in front of the hotel is probably the nicest in the area, and the process for getting towel, chairs, umbrellas was very easy. Property management was very kind and responsive to any questions I had during my stay. Cannot wait to come back and rent this condo again!
