About this property

LOVE DA BLACK ROCK OCEAN VIEW WHALER ON KAANAPALI BEACH - APRIL / EASTER HOLIDAY

MAKING YOUR NEXT MAUI STAY A TRULY MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE. Our beautiful Whaler studio condo is all about views, privacy and comfort. It is located on the 10th floor of Tower 1 with 180 degree unobstructed views of the ocean, Isle Molokai, Black Rock and the North shoreline, and West Maui Mountains. You will find yourself waking up everyday with a postcard view of the legendary Black Rock.

Black Rock is believed by ancient Hawaiians to be the site from which their spirits 'jumped off' or left this world to join their ancestors. The Black Rock area is highly popular for snorkeling and scuba diving as the rock forms a great reef wall attracting turtles and hundreds of beautiful tropical fish. From our Lanai, you can enjoy the legendary torch lighting and cliff diving from Black Rock everynight before sunset. Making your next visit to Kaanapali Beach a truly memorable one.

We offer competitive rates, first class accomodation professionally maintained by our local property manager. Our condo features a fine balance of modern luxuries with island charms, appointed with many fine local arts. Hope you find our Maui home equally enjoyable as we do. Please enquire with confidence and mahalo for looking. Aloha.

Great location, other issues

The per diem amenities fee is not mentioned in the listing and is significantly more than stated on the rental agreement; the apartment itself has a musty/moldy smell; the WiFi did not work for the duration of our stay. That said, it is a great location with a beautiful view.

Whaler patio problems

This will be our 7th year back at the whaler and this is the first year we had an issue- the room was great and service and communication all good but unfortunately a couple days before our trip we were told the patio would be “limited” access for construction work- we paid extra for the higher floor and view and to not be able to open the curtains without seeing workers looking from the hours of 8-5 or sit on the patio was unfortunate all around. As for the hours it was “open” the railings were covered soYou had no view if you were sitting in a chair. And further the coverings have been there a while- they are dusty and gross and covered in bird poop so the patio was completely not accessible and the view was not existent. We still love the whaler but did not get the value of the price we paid for the view and patio. We could have saved a lot of money going lower floors with no view because that is what we had for a much higherPrice .

Why they chose this property

Maui is our favor island in the world and we love spending time on Kaanapali Beach. Our beautiful vacation home at the Whaler offers a perfect getaway for two. The exterior views from our lanai is breath taking and inspiring - with that 180 degree unobstructed views of ocean, beaches and mountains. We chose a higher floor location for the best vista and privacy. The interior of our condo offers you the old Whaler island charms uplifted with modern convenience and upscale feels. It is warmly decorated with many Hawaiian paintings and pictures through out and we will continue to add our personal touch to it on every chance we have. We feel strongly that everyone staying at our condo should enjoy it as much and as the same as we do.

What makes this property unique

The Whaler is so conveniently located with everything just a few steps away. No shortage of things to do or see, and places to eat or shop. Take the beach walk every morning for a refreshinig walk/exercise that stretches from the Shareton at Black Rock all the way down to the south end of Kaanapali Beach. Try Hula Grill next door with nightly live entertainment (one of the few authorized Kiawe Grills on the Island), or enjoy Luau at KBH also located next door to the Whaler.
