We love Ka'anpali as a place to visit and have stayed at the Whaler several times. The location and the view are fantastic. It's right on the beach, and within easy walking distance to numerous shops and restaurant. Kelly's place was clean, up to date, and all amenities provided.
We were a little surprised to deal only with a property management company and not the owner herself. And when we checked in to the Whaler, somehow they had not recieved notice of our reservation. Only after a lot of discussion, looking at our paperwork, and a phone call with Sullivan Properties (the management company) were we able to check in .
