Perfect house for family trip
This house was perfect for our family vacation. Lots of space for everyone to spread out. Hot tub was easy to use and private pool was great. Location was perfect easy walk or drive to the beach and shopping. The few minor issue we had were promptly address by Daniel and resolved quickly. View from the balcony was great for watching the whales in the channel. Kitchen was huge and well stocked made cooking dinners easy (the fish market Maui was a quick drive away for fresh fish) highly recommend this house if you are travelling with a larger group.

Whale House For The Win!
This property is incredible! This is our second time in Maui and first at the Whale House. If we make it back to Maui a third time, we will most certainly be staying here again. Excellent layout, tons of space, and nice amenities both inside and for the beach. Beautiful property located conveniently near Ka'anapali.

Perfect Christmas getaway
My family (mother, sisters, brothers in law, niece, nephew, and sons) have been planning a Christmas vacation away for a long time. This house was perfect for it! Rooms were spacious including the kitchen which was large enough that several people could be helping at once prepare the meals and clean up afterwards. The large dining table allowed us all to eat together. We loved the deck outside which grill for outdoor cooking. The pool was nice however, because there was no propane available due to supply issues, we weren't able to have our pool heated during our stay. The house was very clean and organized. Having beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards available was great! We used them every day and then used the washing machine and dryer at night to clean all the towels for the next day. The house was in a good location near the beach. When the bicycles tires were flat and the tire pump wasn’t functional the owners dropped off a new bike pump in a timely manner so the boys could go riding. The back of the house looks onto the golf course and we had a beautiful view of the trees and the ocean from the second floor balcony. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend the Whale House!

A Slice of Paradise with Every Amenity Imaginable!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible Hawaii home through VRBO, and it was nothing short of a dream come true! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the lush surroundings, breathtaking pool, and the warmth of the Hawaiian sun. The property is an absolute gem, and the private pool was a highlight of our stay. Surrounded by swaying palm trees and tropical flowers, the pool area provided a secluded oasis where we could unwind and soak up the sun. The crystal-clear water was a refreshing escape from the heat, and all the kids and adults found themselves spending countless hours lounging on the comfortable poolside furniture. The home itself is a true haven of comfort and luxury. The two-floor layout allowed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with lots of room for 10 of us. The bedrooms were spacious and elegantly decorated, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploring the island. One of the standout features of the property is the well-appointed kitchen. It had everything we needed to prepare delicious meals, and we took full advantage of the modern appliances and ample counter space. Enjoying breakfast on the outdoor patio with the sound of Hawaii in the background became a cherished morning ritual. The property manager was exceptionally helpful and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was to our satisfaction. I definitely recommend the property we stayed at!

WONDERFUL
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The proximity to the beach is not a lie! However, the walk back to the house is all uphill but short. 😊. There were enough bedrooms for our family of 12 and enough room if we needed our own space. Kitchen amenities were great, along with everything we needed for the beach. Be aware, there are many steps going into the house and in the house. The main bedrooms are on the ground level and kitchen and living on the upper. The view from the lanai is amazing. Communication with Daniel and Kendra, during our stay was great. Thank you My husband arranged a surprise marriage vow renewal on Napili Bay. 24.5 years. The first time was on Big Beach.

Family vacation
In town for a family wedding and vacation and booked this home. Stayed multiple times 20 years ago and it was just how we remembered it. Had a couple of maintenance problems but the management team addressed them quickly and dispatched technicians quickly. All was great!
