THE WHALER ON KAANAPALI BEACH
Hotel-Zoned & Operating as a Legal Vacation Rental Property
Welcome to The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach, one of West Maui’s most sought-after beachfront condominium resorts. For generations, families and couples have returned year after year to their Maui home away from home, drawn by the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and an unbeatable oceanfront location.
Experience the freedom and space of a private condominium while enjoying the amenities of a premier resort. Start your morning with coffee on your private lanai as humpback whales breach offshore during the winter season. Prepare breakfast in your fully equipped kitchen, grab your beach chairs, and spend the day enjoying world-famous Kaanapali Beach just steps from your door.
Everything you need for an unforgettable Maui vacation is within easy walking distance. Browse the shops and restaurants at Whalers Village, tee off on championship golf courses, dine at oceanfront restaurants, or simply stroll along the shoreline before returning to your lanai to watch a spectacular Hawaiian sunset. The Whaler is the ideal home base for experiencing the very best of Kaanapali Resort.
When it’s time to slow down, The Whaler’s tropical grounds provide a peaceful retreat from the crowds of larger resorts. Spend a relaxing afternoon by the pool, where families gather, younger children learn to swim, and older kids move effortlessly between the pool deck and the beach. Fire up the barbecue grills for a casual evening meal, set sail on a sunset cruise, or simply unwind beneath the swaying palms.
