About this property
Exceptional Value: 2BD/2BA Ocean View The Whaler
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. VRBO walking map is incorrect. I think it is about 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 Aston at 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 full kitchens with a variety of room configurations and captivating views. 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 two-bedroom condo is over 1400 square feet and is equipped with a full-size kitchen, central air conditioning with separate units in each bedroom, new Samsung Flat Screen Smart TV’s in the living room and both bedrooms, Wi-Fi, bed linens, towels, washer and dryer (stacked) including detergent. It has been tastefully updated over the past few years including recessed LED lights controlled by dimmer switches to set the lighting according to your needs. Ceiling fans in all the rooms.
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. We've stocked our kitchen with lots of cooking essentials, a rice cooker, BBQ utensils, and extra baking tools for those inclined. We thoroughly enjoy the luxury of cooking and entertaining in our 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. Large guest bedroom has (2) Queen sized beds and a Queen size sofa sleeper in the living room. New 65" Samsung Smart TV in the living room with free cable TV and Wi-Fi throughout the condo.
Both bedrooms, the living room, and dining room have direct access to the 500 square foot wrap-around lanai through large sliding glass doors to enjoy the ocean and West Maui mountain views.
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, and Leilani's on the Beach or 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?
We also have a beautiful 1-bedroom 2-bath condo with a great ocean view available on the 3rd floor (Whaler 357) overlooking the BBQ area and Kaanapali Beach - VRBO #4750805 and a gorgeous 2-bedroom 2-bath VRBO #1838001 on the 5th floor with ocean and West Maui mountain views. Contact me for more details.
Our condo is equipped with 4 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.

Great place
Awesome property- stayed in different places at Whaler- this unit did not disappoint! Two bedroom was perfect and the views of the mountains in the morning may have been better than the ocean view- unbelievably beautiful! Great that is an end unit with wrap around deck- sunsets were also great. Nice to walk to my favorite restaurant- Hula Grill- great location. Also clean and up to date- very nice.
