The Whaler # 252 is an OCEANFRONT CORNER condo in a prime location right on Kaanapali Beach at The Whaler. It is a large 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit with over 1440 square feet of living space with a huge 508 + square foot wrap-around-lanai. Enjoy the spectacular full 180 degree breathtaking views of the Islands of Lanai & Molokai, Black Rock, and the West Maui Mountains while relaxing on your lanai. The '52' Stack, with full on view of Black Rock is the most popular stack at The Whaler and considered the "Premier View" on Kaanapali. It is away from the pool, and does not overlook the Kaanapali Beach Hotel nor Whaler's Village. From your lanai, enjoy watching the crashing surf, the islands, and people enjoying the beach. You have ocean views from every room or dine and relax on your huge wrap-around-lanai. Hear the crashing surf from every room. Watch the Kaanapali Beach Black Rock Cliff diving ceremony, with torch lighting, each evening around sunset from your lanai. The interior of the unit has an updated kitchen with a Sub Zero refrigerator. Whaler # 252 has a King size bed in both bedrooms and a queen sofa sleeper bed in the living room.

The Whaler, Maui on Kaanapali Beach, is world renowned on one of Maui’s most spectacular and popular white sand beaches. Enjoy the fantastic snorkeling just steps away at Black Rock. Wake up every morning looking, from your bed, at Black Rock, the Kaanapali Beach crashing surf, and the Island of Molokai. Enjoy ‘Maui’ sunsets year round from your lanai. This location is truly spectacular. The Whalers resort offers a Gym, Spa, Tennis Courts, underground parking, an oceanfront pool, Jacuzzi and much more. Lush tropical grounds with soaring palm trees and a walking bridge over the koi pond add to the Aloha and stunning beauty of the Whaler.

Begin each day in paradise with your morning coffee enjoying spectacular views from your lanai then step out to the beautiful white sands, tropical reefs and crystal clear warm waters of Kaanapali for a fun-filled day of sunbathing, snorkeling, or sightseeing along the scenic shoreline. The beachfront sidewalk makes it easy to stroll to restaurants and shopping. The Whaler offers many beach items and additionally, you can also rent snorkeling and surf equipment, shop at Whalers Village next door, feast at the Hyatt Luau or eat a meal at Hula Grill or Leilani's.

Then after a wonderful day of exploring and Maui adventures come home to your elegant condominium, relax on your own lanai, poolside or in the spa with a cool drink while watching another spectacular sunset. Let the soothing sound of the ocean and the trade winds in the palm trees lull you to sleep while enjoying the peaceful feeling of Aloha in your Maui home.

Whaler 252 is very popular so don't waste any time reserving this beautiful home for your Maui dream vacation.

best beach location

whaler unit 252 is absolutely the best location on ka'anapali beach, literally steps from the beach. many resorts have limited and distant access to the beach.so convenient...out the unit door down the stairs and you're on the beach. the unit is well appointed and the views are magnificent. from the lanai and beach we saw whales, spinner dolphins, turtles, and this year, monk seals. seals were right at the water's edge.sunsets are spectacular every evening. the owners are communicative and accomodating. the grounds are serene and lovely. we've once again already booked our trip to whaler 252 for 2026.

The best view and superior interior plus excellent hosts.

We’ve stayed at many places in Aston Whaler. John and Trisha were great hosts, answered our questions quickly. All went smooth. The location has the best view from all three sides and closest to the beach. We enjoy the second floor for quick walkout. It was well maintained. We like the wrap around large deck and many chairs, umbrellas for our use. We hope to come back. Thank you so much for sharing your place. Kathryn and Jay

Best spot in Maui

After many trips to Maui we finally found the best. Amazing condo with lots of room & amenities. They thought of everything, down to chairs/umbrellas/floaty tube (we left one too)Best view and you can't get any closer to the beach. Right next door to amazing restaurants & shops. We are forever spoiled as nothing will ever be as good as this one. Best trip ever.
