Such a great trip! We've stayed in this unit several times now and always been pleased. I especially enjoy having breakfast on the lanai, then walking the short distance down to the beach. The unit is on the north side of the tower, with a well-kept lawn just beyond the lanai, making it feel private. The unit is comfortable and the kitchen cabinets had everything we needed, also I do appreciate that good-sized bathroom counter. The high-backed beach chairs in the closet were much appreciated! Larry is responsive and communication is easy. When arriving at the Whaler and throughout our stay, front desk staff was friendly and professional. Thanks to all, see you next year.

I’ve stayed at the Whaler for many years and the ground floor rentals are always the best! This studio has everything you need and direct access to the beach just steps away. Parking is really easy and private. There’s pickle ball and tennis available as well as beach amenities and a great concierge to help plan. This apartment is clean and comfortable and spacious! We will definitely be back again soon!

About the host

Hosted by Larry Levine

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!
