The staff was great, and despite the large number of chickens on the island, this area was largely chicken free, so no rooster wakeup calls.

Whalers Cove is amazing! I am so glad I chose this over the fancy hotel resorts. plenty of space, big kitchen, washing machine and dryer, personal service. direct ocean front. Eileen and Marianne were so welcoming. I want to come back. Thank you Eileen and Marianne!

The staff was excellent. Very attentive to our needs. Loaned us beach chairs, umbrella, sand toys. The view was wonderful! Pool and barbecue were very nice. The kitchen could have been cleaner, but very well stocked. No AC. That took a couple of days to acclimate to, but overall not a problem even for my son who feels the heat.

Very nice 2 bedroom condo, the most completely kitchen-equipped than we've had. Note that this was an end unit, second floor, with one a partial view of the ocean, but plenty of deck space.

Perfect quiet place for a 5-night stay. Amazing ocean views and easy travel to both sides of the island.

Enjoyed watching the waves break on the rocky shore outside our window. We also saw sea turtles and seals swimming in the surf from our balcony. THe proximity of some beatiful beaches was also a plus.

Perfect size for us. Pool was generally very quiet. Condos were well stocked with items we needed. Walking distance to several shops / restaurants.

Beautiful location pool and condo.

We loved the location and views. The pool was so nice and clean and the landscaping was beautiful. The condo was pretty hot but they provide fans. We ended up sleeping downstairs as it was cooler.

We had a very large suite, and the views were amazing. However, the temperature was warm/hot, and this property did not have air conditioning.

This is the ideal setting for a romantic getaway! The hotel staff go above and beyond to help you reserve local activities and reservations. We’d definitely come back!

The serenity of Whalers Cove was the biggest plus for us. More of an adult resort just because no playgrounds and pool slides. Ever more than 4 people in the pool and spa always available. The smaller size of Whalers Cove made it so peaceful yet very close to beaches, shopping and restaurants. The ocean is just outside the door and waves crashing against the rocks is beautiful.

Amazing location. By far the best place we could have imagined staying in Kauai.

The location is fantastic. The condos are within walking distance of several small beaches, numerous restaurants and shops. Plus the property is well maintained and very quiet.

My wife and I spent four nights at the Whalers Cove in early December 2019. The Cove is a condominium complex located in the Koloa/Poipu area of Kauai. We had a HUGE two bedroom, ocean view unit on the ground floor. The unit was decorated tastefully and comfortably and had more than enough plates, glasses, cooking utensils, etc,, not that we did any cooking during our stay. Although the complex does not have beach access, it does have a nice pool and spa and beach access is close by (by car). The complex does provide beach chairs, umbrellas, towels and snorkeling gear at no charge. It was very quiet at night and the unit was clean. There is an excellent shopping center within walking distance that has a variety of restaurants and shops. The main area of Poipu Beach is five minutes away by car and the tourist attractions on the south and west side (e.g., Waimea Canyon, Salt Pond Beach) are within a reasonable driving distance. Families or couples who want the convenience of being able to have their meals on site should consider this facility. we felt the complex provided good value for the money.
