We came to the Whaler as a huge family of 16 and rented multiple units to accommodate us. My husband and I plus our 17 year old son stayed in this unit. We slept in the master bedroom, he was in the living room. The sofa sleeper was very uncomfortable so we ended up with him on a blow up bed. The living room had plenty of space for the bed, the carpet was in good condition, was stocked with games, beach stuff, and had comfortable nice furniture. The bathroom was big, clean, and easy for us to share. We each commented on how well the shower/tub was done. Very nice. The kitchen was well stocked and very nice. The lanai didn't get much sun and didn't have much of a view but we spent most of our time out and about so it was just fine. And after a day in the sun, it was nice to sit outside in the warm breeze and not be in sun. I'd recommend this unit because it's bright, it felt updated with nice furniture and cabinets, it's convenient location made it easy to get to and from, and it fit the 3 of us nicely.
I only wish the check-in time was earlier than 4pm because it feels like you waste a whole day waiting to check in, get groceries, get settled, etc. We really couldn't enjoy the day until we accessed the unit. Check out is 10am so I think it would be very beneficial if they could move the check in time to 12:30/1pm. That allows the day to be productive instead of in wait.
