Location Couldn’t Be Better

Fantastic ground level unit literally 1 minute from the ocean. Stayed here 1 week and loved it. Beautiful property meticulously maintained. Fantastic staff. Unit was extremely comfortable and was absolutely perfect for our little group. We know where we want to stay when we come back.

Awesome Condo and Location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this unit at The Whaler. Right at the beach and steps away from Whalers Village. This is the pefect place in Ka'anapali. The Host commicates well and has everything ready for your stay. We will definitely be back here some time in the future.

Maui The Whaler at Kaanapali

We spent five nights here and enjoyed the convenience of the ground floor location steps from the barbecues, pool, and beach. Parking was never an issue and the staff are friendly. We would be pleased to stay here again.

Great vacation studio in Maui!

We just spent another 10 days at the Whalers Kaanapali. The studio is in a great location, steps from the ocean/beach, and Whalers Village. Beautiful location, the condo is great; everything works, and we can’t wait to go back!

Perfect location

I’ve seen in this particular condo several times, you can’t beat the location. The condos on the bottom floor with a nice lanai perfect for enjoying morning coffee and afternoon barbecues. The condo is a studio but has a nice little kitchen, eating area. Everything for a great vacation is right there!

We have stayed at The Whaler our last six visits to Maui. This was the first time on the ground floor and we loved it! We were very comfortable in this unit and liked the traditional Hawaiian decor. We would gladly stay again!

Busy Trip in Maui

The property was amazing. Exactly what I was looking for for my first Hawaii vacation. The location was right next door to a very nice outdoor mall. It was a bit of a tourist trap, but that was perfectly fine by me (I was a tourist after-all). The ammenities within walking distance were all top-notch, and the daily sun sets absolutely mesmerizing. This property and specifically this first floor room would be my first choice if/when I visit Maui again.

Love The Whaler!

We’ve stayed before. We love the ease of walking out the slider to the patio and then to the beach. This unit is also ideally located to elevator and garage parking. I greatly appreciated Mary reaching out to me when I left items behind; I was able to retrieve them before our airport run.

Fantastic old Hawaii ground floor unit

This was perfect for us. Our grand kids were staying at the Westin, and they came over for breakfast most days. We loved the easy access to the ocean and grass area from the ground floor. Laundry, front door, and garage were also right outside our door. Would 100% return.

Perfect Location

We have never stayed at the Whaler before and this was probably our favorite out of all the other properties we have stayed. Location is perfect. This is the only place that has a beach front pool/hot tub. So we were just in and out of the ocean/pool all week. It was fantastic! Right next to the Whalers Village for all the shops and restaurants. 5 minute walk to Black Rock. Condo itself quaint but perfect for a couple and has everything you need. I was skeptical about the ground floor location but it ended up being my favorite part! We will definitely be back!

Great location - but needs updating

The price was good, but we were envious of other people's rooms that also stayed at the Whaler. The carpet needs a shampoo (or replaced), the wallpaper is peeling and repaired with tape. Looking around it looks like it may have flooded in years past. I left my laptop on the floor and when I picked it up in the morning it was full of ants.

You can’t go wrong staying here!

I hate leaving a good review selfishly because it will be booked more! Haha This condo felt very private when it really shouldn’t considering you’re in the crowded area of the Whaler/Kaanapali. Sitting on the ground level Lanai watching sunsets was perfection. It was clean and comfortable. If you’re looking for a 2022 modern remodel this isn’t for you. If you’re looking to walk out your door and be on one of the best beaches in the world, walk to restaurants/shops, then you will be 100% happy. The convenient location cannot be beat. We loved their oceanfront bbqs too. We hope to be guests here one day again. Mahalo!

Maui Happy

While the units was in need of updating, it had a 80's vibe and a little worn out the unit was clean and very well stocked with supplies or things you might want while there. The price was very reasonable as well. My main disappointment was that the bathtub and sink were backed up and I stood in water to my ankles whenever I showered. Also I thought the pictures on the website indicated the unit was on the inside looking out not the backside of the tower but not a big deal and we still got to view the ocean on the patio. Loved the area and proxcimity to everthing. Thank you

Host profile image
My family and I have been in the real estate business for decades. My father owned his own Real Estate Company, and is now retired. I am licensed in Real Estate in California. When my father first visited The Whaler, he walked into an Open House and bought our lovely studio condo on the spot! We enjoy vacationing, and offering out our various properties to others around the world to enjoy as well!

Why they chose this property

The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach is a premier oceanfront location. Right in the middle of famed Kaanapali Beach, it's walking distance to just about anything you could ask for. The weather is great all year round, and the views are awesome. The ocean floor is smooth for swimming, and the people are friendly! And the ground floor location is so convenient!

What makes this property unique

We have an oceanfront swimming pool and new spa, as well as oceanfront gas BBQ grills for your use. There is a weight room, sauna and a nail/massage spa on property, as well as tennis courts. It sits right across the street from the Royal Kaanapali Golf Course, and directly next door to Whaler's Village, a shopping area with restaurants, and even a free Whaling Museum. Snorkeling is just a simple 5 minute walk up the beach to Black Rock where you can find colorful fish, sea turtles, and even an eel! You can para-sail, jet-ski, go for a sunset dinner cruise right off the beach. A quick drive up the road will bring you into historic Lahaina Town!
