"The main building was beautiful, clean and well kept.
Our room had dirty sheets, and the shower backed up. The beds were tiny! I called prior to booking the trip to confirm all amenities would be open, the front desk said they would be. The ice cream shop was not open, and the pizza place was open part time. The restaurant food was delicious and the beach was amazing. I probably would not pay the price I did again for our room."
"Whaler should focus on their core competencies: running a pub. The hotel side is mediocre. I would not stay there again: I checked out early because it did not meet my expectations."
"The facility is well kept and clean. However, my daughter was also staying at the hotel and her room smelled musty. It was on the first level. She didn’t want to say anything because she was traveling with her 2 daughters and did t want to disrupt them. I requested her to say something. Other than that, the stay was most enjoyable. Breakfast choices were also good."
"The room smelled like mildew and there were layers of dust on top of the bed frames. I was not impressed. A room next to us was open all day and night with no one inside, which made me believe staff was not very attendant. There is no hot tub in the pool and the breakfast spot that is attached is not good. Do not recommend."
"Horrible.
Unusable pillows.
Defective room with poor workmanship.
Couldn’t close bathroom door.
Noisey aircon from adjoining rooms all night.
Big floodlights light up the room all night due to insufficient curtains.
Worst night sleep in many years. The owners obviously never spent a night in one of their rooms."
"Cozy, classy and modern. Perfect for a nice getaway with more privacy than a traditional hotel stay. The staff was very pleasant and reached out to accommodate and early check-in which was quite an unexpected surprise. Definitely looking forward to coming back!"
