About this property

Million Dollar Views Oceanfront Studio at The Whaler in Ka'anapali

Aloha! Welcome to Unit #764 at the beautiful and world-famous Ka'anapali Beach and the Whaler! Ka'anapali Beach is a destination featured on the Travel Channel and rated as one of the best beaches in the USA. The Whaler is a popular luxurious ocean front resort in the heart of the Ka'anapali Beach, a pristine, white-sand beach, perfect for swimming.

Ideally located on the seventh floor of Tower II, the unit is professionally managed, and is an oceanfront unit with spectacular views of the ocean, Black Rock, Whaler Courtyard and the West Maui Mountains. This unit is literally steps away from Ka'anapali Beach.

Our condominium was recently completely renovated down to the studs. The condo is completely refurbished with a California King-sized bed, all new furniture inside and on the Lanai. Amenities include a full supply of linens and towels, a fully-equipped kitchen including all utensils and appliances. Free washer and dryer are available on each floor of the building. The Whaler provides additional amenities including pool and spa, beach towels, a fitness center, tennis courts, and barbecue areas, to make your stay enjoyable. Free wireless internet is available in the unit.

World class shopping is next door at the Whaler Village and dozens of restaurants are within walking distance of The Whaler. A paved walking path right outside the Whaler stretching the entire length of Ka'anapali Beach will take you to Black Rock, a string of great resorts along the coast, and live entertainment.

Play golf at the Royal Ka'anapali golf course adjacent to the Whaler, or at any one of the three championship courses in Kapalua, The Bay, The Village, and The Plantation, just minutes away by car.

The Whaler recently completed $30 million worth of renovations and enhancements to maintain its status as a world class resort property. This included remodeling of the pool, spa, and the adjacent deck, the courtyard, tennis courts, elevators.

The Whaler charges a resort fee/day which includes parking, pool towels, morning coffee and new fitness center. The resort fee as of Apr 1 2025 = $35/night and is collected by The Front Desk upon check out.

Total taxes levied are the County of Maui 3% MCTAT tax in addition to the State TAT of 10.25% and State Tax of 4.5%. Total tax charged/night is 17.75%

Truly Great Experience on Kaanapali Beach

We love staying at The Whaler and Ian and Sue’s condo does not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is very clean and comfortable. The bed is very comfortable. When our destination is Maui, our first priority will be to book this condo again.

Large, beautiful studio

My husband and I had a great stay! The unit was clean and well-stocked. For a studio, we had plenty of room, and the view was amazing. As the lanai was in the shade during the day, the unit stayed cool and we could sit there watching whales as we ate our breakfast. I would certainly come back to this unit -- we had a fabulous time!

It was excellent. Very well decorated and the location can't be beat.

Whaler 764 may was great. We had friends staying at the Westin for 40% more and they like out unit much better. It was very well equipped with beach items and such, and the location is dead center on fhe beach in Ka'anapalli, You are close to everything.

Great stay

This is a great unit at the Whaler. Very clean, updated, and well provisioned (beach gear, comfortable bedding, towels, etc). The communication from the owners is fantastic, easy to get a hold of and very helpful. The location of the whaler within Kaanapali is amazing with shops and restaurants next store and immediate access to the best part of beach (black rock). Would definitely rebook this unit.

Fun in Maui

Property is close to shops and restaurants. It is very easy to walk to the beach, pool, and restaurants. The condo unit was very clean and stocked with kitchen appliances and tools. The underground parking is great with easy access by the elevator. The sunset views from the unit are amazing. We will stay here again.

Excellent location and condo!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location can’t be beat and appreciated the owners included beach gear, unlike many of the other units. Only thing is I wish it was more clear we didn’t have a washer/dryer in the unit (easy to access, but would have packed a bit different). All in all absolutely would stay again. Thanks for making your condo so beautiful for guests to enjoy and be comfortable!

Maui Perfection

We stayed 5 nights and absolutely loved this condo. The location is ideal, and super convenient for beach access, dining, and shopping. The extra amenities such as beach chairs, umbrellas, and cooler were super handy to have available. Communication was amazing, with regular check ins from the host to ensure everything went smoothly. Would not hesitate to book this property again, and would highly recommend to family and friends.

The owners were always quick to respond to any questions & accommodating . The unit is exactly as the photos show. The condo has been renovated to a high standard & quality of furnishings. The lanai offers a wonderful view including some whale watching. The condo is very clean & had everything we needed. All the staff were friendly & helpful.

Perfect Location and Amazing Views!

This beautiful apartment couldn't have been more perfect. The bed was sooo comfy, a major requirement for us. The lanai had a lounge chair for reading and napping while listening to the ocean waves, along with a table and chairs where we enjoyed our morning coffee and evening wine. The view was amazing and we loved our daily view of the beach and watching the sun set over the ocean. Would most definitely stay here again.

Incredible view

The Whaler is known for having large lanais and that combined with a courtyard and beach view equals incredible! The condo is really nice inside and the view is spectacular! The granite counters in the kitchen, the comfortable bed, and great seating both at the table and sofa area make for a comfortable stay. For a studio condo you can't beat this! We already made reservations to return next year.

We are avid travelers but our favorite place continues to be Maui and Ka'anapali Beach. We were married on the beach right in front of The Whaler. Maui is a magical place and The Whaler is the perfect spot to experience all that the Valley Isle has to offer.
