    A little slice of heaven in Koloa

    Aloha! This is a very special, quiet spot right on the ocean in Koloa. All you hear are the waves crashing and can see turtles, whales and dolphins from your lanai. It’s always hard to leave. We’ve stayed at Whalers Cove 4 times and it has always been wonderful. Mahalo to the amazing staff for always being so accommodating and helpful. We will be back again next year! It’s something we always look forward to.

    Relaxation in paradise.

    Absolute fantastic location. The view is tremendous. (Condo 133). Sound of the waves washing through the condo was therapeutic. Staff was helpful and very friendly. I loved how the surrounding area would have rain showers, but at the condo it would be dry and sunny. The condo was spacious and well appointed. On warm days you could open the windows at opposite sides of condo and the breeze would quickly cool down the inside. No AC, but that is normal for Hawaii. We would come back if the opportunity presented itself. We really enjoyed our stay here.

    A Delightful Get-Away in a Sanctuary by the Sea!

    For my birthday, my husband surprised me with a week's vacation to our favorite spot in Kauai--Whalers Cove. This time we were given Suite #131, which was a marvelous two-floor, two-bedroom, lovely living and dining area, with a magnificent lanai overlooking the ocean! Twenty-four hours a day we were aware of the sweet rumble of the ocean; the rhythmic ever-changing tides, the roar; it was like listening to the earth's heart. From the grand lanai, we were able to catch every single sunset, ate every breakfast, many a dinner, and were lulled by the beauty and sound each cocktail hour. With the very well-equipped kitchen, we were, obviously, able to prepare many of our meals of which we preferred. We were in 'rest' mode, and preferred the sanctuary of space to the wild, noisy cacophony of the over-touristed restaurants. Did I mention the beautiful grounds, swimming pool with the hot tub, and viewing of the turtles in the slough? Did I mention we were in a marvelous location near Poipu, which gave us access to the world when we chose? Oh, that's too bad!

    Charming and very private

    I have been staying at this place since the mid 90's and in spite of the growth in this area, it still has its charm and privacy. Great views, great pool and barbecue. Service is great and most of the rooms have been upgraded. Already have my reservations for next year . The growth brought about some great restaurants in walking distance.

    No Ka Oi

    Another great stay at Whalers! Service, amenities and oh the VIEWS were fabulous! Stayed in condo 121, upstairs on the lawn side. 2 BDR with turtle sightings on the lanai, great sunsets and QUIET! The condo is getting a refresh-we loved the new bathroom decor. The lanai is spacious and great for reading and sunsets. Marianne and her staff are amazing and go above and beyond. The only problem with our stay..is that it was too short! A hui hou!
