You will love our condo that is located at The Whaler with one of the best locations on Kaanapali Beach. We are located right on the beach and a few steps away from Whalers Village. It is approximately 30 steps from our building to the sand. The pool and spa are right next to the beach walk.
If you prefer an oasis of tranquility over the many crowded resorts in the area, look no further than The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach. Comprised of two 12-story mid-century towers on six acres of lush landscape including a lovely koi pond with a waterfall, this condo-hotel offers a fully equipped kitchens and captivating views from the lanai. Enjoy the peace and quiet from the swimming pool overlooking the ocean or a stroll around the beautifully manicured grounds. For a joyful start to your day, join us for fish feedings at 8:30 am each morning at the Koi Pond.
Our large one-bedroom condo is slightly over 900 square feet and is equipped with a full-size kitchen, central air conditioning with separate units for the living room and the bedroom along with ceiling fans in both rooms. High speed Wi-Fi, bed linens, towels, washer and dryer (stacked) including detergent.
Our choices of furnishings were designed for comfort and convenience conducive to the tropical climate without compromising on the everyday amenities that we've all come to enjoy at home. The kitchen is stocked with lots of cooking essentials, BBQ utensils, and baking tools for those inclined. We thoroughly enjoy the luxury of cooking and entertaining in this beautiful open kitchen.
Our large master bedroom features an extremely comfortable king bed, all down-like pillows, a 55” new Samsung TV with extras for added convenience. New 65" Samsung Smart TV in the living room with free cable TV and high speed Wi-Fi throughout the condo.
The bedroom and the living room have direct access to the 200 square foot lanai through large sliding glass doors to enjoy the ocean views, West Maui mountain views, beautiful sunrises and gorgeous sunsets.
Start your morning with a leisurely breakfast on your lanai and enjoy the beautiful ocean view. If you happen to be one of the lucky ones here visiting during whale season, just sit back and marvel at the magnificent show of the humpback whales as they glide gracefully through the water.
It's only a short stroll next door to the Whalers Village, the largest outdoor shopping center on Maui. You'll find a myriad of fine restaurants including Hula Grill, Monkeypod, Leilani's on the Beach, a food court and casual family dining, convenience stores, boutique shopping, first class art galleries, live entertainment and so much more. And if you're inclined to take advantage of the many water adventures, most depart directly from Kaanapali Beach ~ now how convenient is that?
Upon request, we will supply Tommy Bahama beach chairs, a beach wagon, beach umbrellas, a couple of boogie boards, sand toys, and assorted snorkel gear for our guests to enjoy.

Everything was wonderful! From the view, the sound of the ocean going to sleep and waking up, the comfortable bed, everything. We were so pleased and would love to stay here again.
We love this unit and the great location. The beach is great for walking, snorkeling and just relaxing. A short walk to shopping and food. A short drive to Lahaina and north shore beaches.
We love staying at The Whaler.
Gorgeous property with awesome view! We have travelled quite a bit and this was one of our best vacations. The property has everything we needed was exceptionally clean, well stocked , updated and comfortable. It was perfect!

Great condo. Easy reservations and good communication.
This condo is awesome! Everything we needed and more. Perfect location, clean, and the grounds are kept up continuously. We would definitely go back and stay in this unit again.
The unit was definitely in line with other premium properties we have used at the Whaler. What was exceptional was the complimentary cleaning mid-stay because we booked for two weeks. We appreciate in-suite laundry, the ability to cook for ourselves, the ability to control AC. There was a nearby renovation going on, but the disruption was minimal. The waves, the sunsets, the location were why we return time after time. It was a great stay!
We had an incredible stay here! The condo is completely updated and just beautiful. The lanai is huge and gives perfect views of the sunrise over the mountains and sunset over Kaanapali beach. It’s in the perfect location, completely walkable to whalers village and black rock. We will DEFINITELY be saving this condo for our returns to Maui in the future. 🤗
I can't say enough positive things about this rental. It was spacious, luxurious, comfortable, spotless and had everything you could possibly need in a home. As previous reviewers have written, the lanai (balcony) is an extra bonus because it gets sunlight pretty much all day so you can relax and sunbathe on your own without having to go to the beach. This is a luxury condo and well worth the price. The resort was fantastic, in a perfect location on the beach, and an easy walk to other resorts, restaurants and shops should you want to do so. I will absolutely be back and staying here next time!

Great unit at the Whaler
Great one bedroom condo at the Whaler with a well supplied kitchen. The bed was really comfortable with extra pillows available. The unit had nice smart tvs as well and having two bathrooms is great. Balcony has perfect views of the grounds, pool and ocean and allows for al fresco dining. If I had minor complaints it would be for more beach gear to use in the unit which I've seen in other units and a more comfortable couch and chairs in living room. Overall a great unit and one we will likely use in the future if we come back.
The one thing this unit has is a good view of the ocean. We were able to see lots of whales and even a submarine. The size of the unit Is advertised as room for 4. It is very tight. I don't believe it is big enough for for adults to adequately have privacy. It might be nice to have an umbrella along with the beach equipment. We enjoyed the unit,it's location ,and the pool. Everyone we dealt with were very professional.

Beautiful renovation
The unit is gorgeous. High-end finishes and excellent, maximized use of the space over the original floor plan. The fold out bed is not in keeping with the other furnishings and my adult grandchildren camped out on the floor, rather than sleep on the uncomfortable bed.
The kitchen is unbelievably elegant, well appointed and spacious. Love the cabinetry. Had trouble finding the refrigerator, but WOW what a great appliance. The washer and dryer were a bit hard to figure out, but were such a lovely amenity.
I would have liked some larger pans, especially a large skillet, and placemats. I found the lighting imaginative, but a bit challenging to figure out.
Overall, the nicest unit we've stayed in roughly 20 times at The Whaler.

Nicely updated and even nicer views
It was just my girlfriend and I so the condo was a great size for us. We had a nice view to the ocean and everything we needed for the week. The large TV was great for the opening weekend of college football! Close to shops, beach and eating. Less than 100 yards to it all! There is construction at The Whaler (which we knew and was explained) but also at Whalers Village, so good luck being on the lanai during work hours without noise. Also, I was a bit unsure if someone was supposed to come and clean our room or not as I thought that happened at 11am or when you put the "service please" note on the door. Didn't happen. Either way, both of those issues were really minor and the unit was amazing and relaxing. I will be back! Thanks!
What an incredible stay in this unit! It was our first time staying at The Whaler and from the moment we arrived, everything was smooth sailing. The unit itself is totally updated and very clean/spacious. The deck is unbelievable! Really spacious too and had awesome views of the courtyard bridge/fountain and beach/ocean. One of our favorite things about this unit (and Tower 1 facing this direction) is you get sun most of the day so if you want to relax outside on your deck and grab some sun you can. Or cool off in the perfectly air conditioned/temp controlled unit. The kitchen offered tons of storage space and had a lot of the basics needed for cooking (like salt/pepper, etc.) The fridge and freezer were really nice and we especially LOVED the drinking water from inside the fridge - so much more convenient than having to buy bottled waters for the week. Master bed was super comfy and having the extra bathroom was great. Only small complaint we'd have is the washing machine...pretty small and didn't wash our clothes as well as we hoped - but that was such a minimal need anyway. We are already looking to reserve this unit again. And just from peeking at other units that had doors open on our floor, ours was by far the nicest/most up-to-date. Highly recommend! (We stayed afterwards at The Andaz Hotel in Wailea and the expensive room didn't even compare to this condo unit - that says a lot.) If this unit isn't available, strongly recommend Tower 1 facing the courtyard at minimum so you're in more sunlight vs. the shaded/darker sides.
Mostly superlatives for this property. A gem. We’ve stayed at the Whaler several times before and this is one of the best units we’ve seen. The only significant negative was the sleeper sofa’s mattress. It was one of the least confortable we've Experienced in 20 years of travel. Adults would NOT be able to sleep in the sofa bed comfortably. Little kids maybe. Also problematic but less of an issue was the microwave-built-in vent above the stove that did not work well at all but we have experienced the same problem with a great number of such vents throughout our travels.
Overall, a near perfect stay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
