Our oceanfront condo sits directly on Kaanapali Beach, ranked the #1 beach in the U.S. by TripAdvisor. Wake up to the sound of the waves, enjoy coffee on your private lanai with unobstructed ocean views, and watch Maui’s legendary sunsets from the comfort of home. Just steps from Whalers Village and from Black Rock snorkeling, this 1 BR/2BA condo is one of the most walkable and sought-after locations on Maui.

Whaler Unit 312 is ideally situated on the quieter, more serene north side of Tower 1, offering direct views of Black Rock Beach, the island of Molokai, and picture-perfect Maui sunsets from your private lanai. This luxury oceanfront condo has been fully renovated with high-end finishes, including a beautifully designed kitchen equipped with everything you need, as well as a wine fridge and a built-in bar for effortless entertaining. Two spa-inspired bathrooms feature elegant marble tile, premium Grohe fixtures, and a spacious walk-in “shower chamber” with dual rainfall showerheads.

Located in the designated hotel zone, The Whaler is fully compliant with Maui’s short-term rental regulations, so you can book with confidence and peace of mind.

The Whaler is the best location on the West Side, consistently ranked among the world’s best beaches. Just next door is Whalers Village, where you’ll find oceanfront restaurants, luxury shopping, and live music. Stroll along the beachwalk, snorkel around Black Rock, or tee off at the Kaanapali Golf Course — all without needing a car, as Kaanapali also has a complimentary shuttle throughout the resorts.

    This was our second time to stay at The Whaler. We absolutely love this property. Check in was smooth and the unit was wonderful. Will definitely consider this property on future stays. Love having a kitchen and extra bathroom. Kitchen was well appointed, bed was comfy and the unit had a beautiful view.

    Clean room, nice view, large room. Pool too small for that many people, hard to walk around the pool deck due to too many chairs. People save chairs early in the morning, shouldn’t be allowed. Pool not appealing.

    My wife and I have been fortunate to visit Maui many times. This condo was by far my favorite accommodation we have ever had. Everything about it was perfect for us. The big lanai with great views of the beach and black rock was an amazing way to start our days. The condo itself is beautiful. It felt like being home from the perfect size kitchen to having two full baths and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in! The complex grounds are beautiful and peaceful! Every interaction we had with the host was amazing. I have not one bad word to say! I am hoping we get the chance to stay here again!

    Wonderful stay in a beautiful unit. A real treat to be surrounded by beautiful woodwork and art. The kitchen was well equipped. Really appreciated having herbs and spices, oils, etc. cook with, as well as good quality equipment. Very comfortable stay from the comfortable bed to enjoying lounge chairs on the lanai. Appreciated chairs and cooler to take to the beach. Carol was gracious and expedient in her communications with me. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

There was everything we needed and more. A beautiful view of the ocean and Black Rock. Easy walking to many eateries and shops. We definitely recommend!!

    We stayed here for the second time and I think we will always choose to stay in this unit if we choose to keep staying at Kaanapali. This time around we had Karen as our point of contact when we checked in. Karen was absolutely on it. We had a minor issue with the garbage disposal not working and contacted Karen and she had it taken care of so quick. From that point on she continued to check in on us to make sure all was going well. Stephanie was also fabulous and worked with us to extend our check out time so that we did not need to leave until it was time to head for the airport, allowing us to fully enjoy our last day before our night flight. As for the unit, it is everything advertised. We slept great. Our teen did just fine on the sofa sleeper. It is perfectly situated with a great view of black rock and I spent several hours on the balcony reading and napping even which is not like me. The breezes were amazing there on the balcony. Thank you Stephanie and Karen for a wonderful time. I wish we could have booked the following week!!

Communication was spot on.. especially when I had a few questions, Stephanie got right back to me. I love having 2 bathrooms! The view and lanai was large and incredible! The condo had more than everything we needed!!! I could go on and on… we will be back next year
