Upgraded 11th Floor Oceanfront Corner 1BR/2BA - Premier 1BR Location at The Whaler!

Offering an unsurpassed location in the heart of Kaanapali, the Whaler provides the perfect setting for experiencing all that the world-famous beach has to offer, and suite 1101 enjoys the absolute finest location of any one-bedroom on the entire property.

Recently remodeled and tastefully upgraded, this one bedroom, two bathroom suite is perched atop the north tower of The Whaler and affords sweeping panoramic vistas of the azure blue Pacific and neighboring islands of Lanai & Molokai. Enjoy the perfect meal at your own outdoor dining area as you experience year-round Maui sunsets from your expansive wrap-around lanai, or simply relax in the outdoor lounge chairs as you take in the sights of Kaanapali Beach and Black Rock below. In addition, this corner location offers enchanting views of the verdant West Maui mountains looming majestically to the east.

The north tower (tower 1) and the oceanfront 51' column offer a distinct advantage to its counterpart in the south tower (tower 2) in that the 51' column enjoys the serenity of being secluded within the tranquil interior of the Whaler with lovely views of the lush courtyard, whereas the one-bedroom oceanfront column (51' column) in the south tower overlooks the Whaler's Village rooftops and the commercial area below.

The spacious interior of the suite has one primary bedroom and two full bathrooms. Fade into a rejuvenating slumber with help from the ocean's gentle rhythm in the king-sized master bed. Both bathrooms have been completely renovated for a lavish bath experience, including masterful granite detailing in the 8' glass-enclosed walk-in showers and travertine tile throughout.

You will find culinary inspiration from the newly remodeled and upgraded kitchen featuring granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and elegant travertine. Fully appointed, the kitchen allows every opportunity for your culinary creativity to be expressed. A washer & dryer is readily available in the suite so there's no need to hassle with long trips back and forth to the laundry.

Nestled right in the heart of Kaanapali Beach, steps from soft sands and pristine waters, the Whaler boasts one of Maui’s best resort locations. This world-famous beach offers an abundance of shopping, dining, and activities right at your doorstep. Luaus, dinner cruises, snorkel trips, parasailing (summer only), whale watching (winter only), surf lessons, and more are only a short walk away.

Lounge by the sparkling beachfront pool and hot tub or take a dip in the crystal blue waters of the Pacific. A beachside towel desk can assist with gear rentals for snorkeling, stand-up paddle boarding, surfing, and more. Additionally, enjoy a game at one of the tennis or pickleball courts or a workout in the fully equipped fitness center. The Whaler even has a private entry directly from the resort to Whalers Village, a beachfront mall offering unique boutique and high-end stores in addition to an array of dining options ranging from grab-and-go to fine dining with sweeping ocean views.

For added convenience, our exclusive courtesy shuttle offers complimentary transportation between The Whaler and several West Maui locations. Should you choose to rent a car, complimentary self-parking is available on site.

If during your stay you require assistance or advice about the surrounding area or the suite, rest assured that you’ll be swiftly taken care of with aloha by one of our friendly & knowledgeable liaisons - hand-picked from West Maui’s leading luxury hotels. Help will never be far away because our offices are ideally located just minutes away.

***Complimentary self-parking***

Heaven on earth!
My husband and I chose the Whaler because our adult daughter and family were also staying there in another unit. The wrap-around view/decking was the epitome of luxury and awe. Our family came up for several sunsets and morning relaxation. Can't wait to get back there! A few more common spices would be appreciated. Thank you for opening up this treasure to be enjoyed by many.

Amazing Location
Our family thoroughly enjoyed living in 1101 at the Whaler condominiums on Kaanapali Beach. The view from the wrap-around lanai was amazing during the epic winter storm that occurred while we were there. The host, Maui Resort Rentals, was responsive to all of our needs before and during our stay. I highly recommend, and will most definitely be returning to this condo.

Perfect place for a romantic and relaxing vacation
My husband and I stayed here for 4 days while on vacation in Maui. This was our first trip to Hawaii. We both loved this location. The condo itself has a stunning view of the ocean. It was spacious and had everything that we needed. I only wish we had stayed longer. The location of the building is a very short walk to plenty of restaurants and shops. Parking was fine for us, and we honestly didn't need to rent a car in hindsight as we spent most of our time at Whaler's Village or the condo. We can't wait to come back and hopefully this unit will be available.

Great stay
The beachfront view was terrific. The charter boats moored out front were interesting and beautiful at night. The Whaler has a nice pool and we looked down of the barbecue area which was entertaining. The unit had beautiful decor and the kitchen was functional so we were able to cook up whenever we were not dining at the Whalers Village. We shared our photos with our friends and they are hoping to reserve sometime. We would definitely rent again!

Great views. Clean. It did have the small amenities such as soap, shampoo, and coffee. I would stay there again in an instant. Also beach chairs and umbrella in the closet. Owners: The sliders need a little WD40 as they were a bit hard to open, same with the front door. Not a problem for us but maybe for others. Note the 5PM checkin time.

This is our second stay at the Whaler. We look forward to coming again. Loved unit 1101. Everything was so handy. We hope to stay again in same unit. Only small suggestion. The pillows are very hard and it would be nice to have a choice of a softer pillow. We are in our sixties and need a little extra comfort for sleep these days ! We loved the location and the nicely stocked kitchen. We had a lovely time.

Rejuvenating perch with phenomenal views.
Location, location, location! 11th floor beach front with wrap around balcony. You won’t spend much time inside with the stunning views and quiet balcony facing the ocean. I’ve stayed at the whaler many times as the private condos fit my needs. This front row beach facing unit give a more private luxury of not seeing other guests and the pleasure of listening to the waves all night. Condo is clean and well equipped. Nothing elaborate but sufficient for our needs. Had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.

Fantastic condo on the 11th floor of the Whaler! Condo was gorgeous inside and very well equipped for all of our needs. The furniture was very comfortable and a slight little problem we had with the garbage disposal was corrected immediately through the management company.

The property was absolutely beautiful. The apartment was very well appointed, a chefs kitchen, comfortable beds and furniture, and a view to die for. Had a few miner issues with the safe and air conditioning ( the batteries were bad). We didn't like having to deal with a Real Estate Management Company who had to be contacted when things went wrong. It would have been much easier to just deal with the Whaler. We had to contact the Management Company, they had to contact the Whaler, a determination had to be made as to who would fix it, then it would get done. Things were resolved quickly but not without some hassel. None the less, this property is a gem. We hope to book it again.

AMAZING VIEWS!
This has been by far one of our best VBRO finds! The unit is just as it is presented. Excellent condition with obvious pride of ownership. The Whaler has been here for years and we had never considered staying here until we found this unit. The grounds are impeccable and the employees are professional and welcoming with their Aloha spirit. We had one issue when we arrived. The AC in the family room area was not cooling properly, I called immediately and it was handled within minutes! We usually stay in Paia when we visit Maui because we got tired of the Kaanapali area. The Whaler helped us fall back in love with this side of the Island! We will be back! You won’t be disappointed with this unit we thought the price per day was outstanding!

Great Place to Stay
The unit has a wrap around balcony with great views of the ocean and faces west so you can see the sunset every night. It is conveniently located next to the Whaler's village for easy access to dining/shops (we didn't hear any activity from it on the balcony) and Black Rock for snorkeling. The unit was clean and tastefully decorated. You will not hear kids running in the hallways and doors opening/closing as you will in hotels. Having a washer/dryer in the unit is great to keep your swim wear clean and dry. The owner provided beach chairs, umbrella, and bogie boards so no need to get your own. We have previously stayed at the Westin and Kaanapali Alii and we will be coming back to this unit in the Whaler. You will spend the same amount of money at the Westin for 2 double beds in one room; our unit in the Alii was bigger but didn't have the views as this does.
