Aston at The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach

Fabulous beach. Convenient location to shops and restaurants. Beautiful gardens. Rooms vary but the second one we stayed in was newly refurbished and stunning. Overlooked the gardens between the two towers and wonderful ocean views sitting on the balcony. The first had a few technical issues, so we were moved without hesitation. Staff reacted very courteously and efficiently

We stayed in Tower 2 on the 7th floor facing the courtyard. It was quiet and had a great view of the ocean even at night. The condo was clean and roomy. A table and chairs were on the balcony for our one bedroom condo so we ate breakfast out there. The bonus was the in-room washer and dryer with detergent. The location of this property is ideal because it is next door to Whalers Village. The ABC store on the second floor of Whalers Village allowed us to buy groceries and ready made wraps, sandwiches, etc. if we didn't feel like going out. The courtyard dining offered to-go options. Very close to Leilani's, Hula Grill and other popular restaurants. The beach was wide (as opposed to further south on Kaapanali Beach) and the sitting beach chairs were sturdy. Note: Since we drove in at night, it was confusing to drive into The Whaler entrance as you see three buildings. I didn't realize Aston was a management company. There is nothing to indicate Aston on the signage so check-in at The Whaler front desk which is manned 24 hours. Parking is underground and can be busy. We always found a spot though. There is an outdoor backup lot if it is full. 45 minutes drive to the airport. We turned in our rental car earlier in the stay so got a taxi back to the airport - $86 for two on Thanksgiving afternoon.

The property was immaculate. The bell man was super friendly and helpful. The pool and hot tub was the kids favorite. The 1 bedroom apartment was very clean and had everything available for use. Would definitely come back to this property.

This property has everything you need to enjoy your time in Kaanapali. The staff is great and always ready to help or point you in the right direction. There are plenty of loungers by the pool as well as in the grassy areas. If you want sand in your toes, no problem, there are self access beach chairs as well as paid beach lounger and umbrella setups. The access to the village is amazing and makes access to snacks and shopping very easy. The views are incredible from all rooms, and the amount of space in the 1 bedroom 2 bath units is perfect.
