Go for it!!
Verified- MitchellVMesa, Az 330
Went for our honeymoon and the Whaler didn’t disappoint. The room was clean and set up pretty well. The communication and follow up was the best I’ve experienced, we wanted to experience a bunch of local spots and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. The location is perfect. Very centralized to snorkeling, pool, or the ocean. A bunch of good food in walking distance and even some others for a short drive. Was able to whale watch from the room and a short walk to black rock we seen dolphins. Highly recommend staying at the Whaler!

Fantastic views of black rock! This is a well equipped top floor apartment within a resort complex providing access to pool/sauna/jacuzzi/gym/tennis amenities. If you’re expecting someone to come in and tidy up after you and make your bed each day you’ll want a hotel instead. This is ideal for a more private vacation. Everything went incredibly smoothly even given the insanely adverse weather during our stay.

Experience the comfort and charm of a vacation rental, where every property feels like your home away from home. Each unit is uniquely owned and thoughtfully decorated to offer a personalized touch, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Our rentals feature fully equipped kitchens, saving you money on dining out and offering extra convenience—especially for families traveling with children!
What you see is what you get: the photos on our website are accurate representations of the exact unit and its stunning view, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. Unlike hotels, which only offer vague view categories and no guarantee of your specific room, with our vacation rentals, you’re assured of the unit and view you’ve chosen. Book with confidence and enjoy a truly tailored getaway experience!
VRBO, HomeAway, and Airbnb are great platforms for visibility, but we’re the property management team that takes care of everything from marketing and bookings to maintenance and housekeeping. By listing on these sites, we ensure our homes get maximum exposure while making the process easier for both homeowners and guests.
If it is not urgent, you can expect a response within 24 hours. Any urgent inquiries should be reported to your respective guest representative, depending on where your stay is. Please refer to the Guest Portal to find out who that is - it is where we store all of the important details (and fun stuff!) for your upcoming visit.
Check or credit card
Yes, we do! We want you to have the best (and safest) vacation ever, and you can add travel insurance at the time of booking. If you have any additional questions regarding our travel insurance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at guestservices@kbmresorts.com
We do not allow pets at any of our properties unless it is a service animal. If you have a service animal, please let us know at the time of booking so we can make note of this.
Some of our units do have multiple bed configurations in some of their rooms. For example, one of the bedrooms may normally have a king size bed, but can be turned into two twins. If you would like to request a configuration change, please send an email to guestservices@kbmresorts.com as soon as possible, including your reservation number, full name the reservation is listed under, and what configuration you would prefer. Please do this at least 72 hours prior to arrival, so we can ensure your request is attended to prior to arrival.
Yes, all of our properties have functioning carbon monoxide and smoke alarms. Please do not alter or unplug these alarms during your stay, as they are installed and maintained to ensure guest safety.
We manage hundreds of properties on Maui, Oahu, the Big Island, and Park City, Utah. We would love to manage yours! Please enter your information at https://kbmresorts.com/management and one of our representatives will get back to you as soon as possible!
Using a property management company for your vacation rental can offer several advantages compared to managing it yourself. Here are some key reasons why you might consider hiring a property management company: time and effort savings, the management company usually has expertise and years of experience, higher revenue potential for your property, familiarity with legal compliance, and guest services that we offer, just to name a few. While managing a vacation rental yourself can save you the property management fee (usually 10-20% of your rental income), it comes with significant responsibility and time investment to do correctly. If you are looking for a property management company for your new property or considering switching over, contact us today at (808) 460-6050 for Hawaii properties and (435) 523-4546 for Utah properties, or email vip@kbmresorts.com for more information.
Updating your property can significantly increase its rental income, especially if the property is in a desirable location. Renovations that improve the appeal of the property—such as upgrading the kitchen, bathrooms, or adding high-quality furnishings—can justify higher nightly rates. Additionally, vacationers often look for properties with modern amenities, so a well-maintained, updated space may attract more bookings and higher-paying guests, leading to a better ROI. If you would like to learn more about our property management services, give us a call today at (808) 460-6050 for Hawaii inquiries and (435) 523-4546 for Utah inquiries.
The Policies section of our FAQ provides essential information on booking, cancellations, payment terms, security deposits, house rules, and guest responsibilities. It also covers details on check-in/check-out times, pet policies, cleaning fees, and any other terms to ensure a smooth and enjoyable stay.
To cancel your reservation, please contact our Reservation team at (808) 568-3270 and we would be happy to assist.

If you cancel greater than 90 days from arrival - full refund less $99 cancellation fee
