The resort condominiums are found in two separate towers – each having 180 units, including studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom condos that range in size from 640 sq. ft to almost 2,000 sq. ft. A serene fishpond with a nature-inspired bridge that is set amongst tropical plants and flowers, the lush courtyard in between the two towers truly gives you the feeling of being in paradise.

Beach parking along Kaanapali Beach is often hard to find. By staying at The Whaler, you do not need to worry about this! Ample parking onsite is conveniently located near the entrance to your tower. Each unit at The Whaler provides you with a fully equipped kitchen where you can prepare your own meals and enjoy them at an ocean-view specious private balcony. Stock up on groceries at nearby grocery stores - Safeway, Grocery Depot, Foodland, Times Supermarket, or enjoy the freedom to warm up a take-out from your favorite restaurant at the nearby upscale oceanfront shopping center - the Whalers Village.

At the beachside of each tower, enjoy barbecues and picnic tables while you watch the colors change in each of our amazing Maui sunsets. Should you prefer to stay indoors, the central air conditioning in each condominium will keep you cool and you can still enjoy the sunsets from your lanai (balcony)!

A true way to relax is by way of a rejuvenating spa treatment at the in-house spa on the property.  Maui is the perfect place to focus on revitalizing and replenishing the body, mind and spirit. This spa has a variety of treatment options. There are also tennis courts on-site and a pickleball court. All are lighted so you can enjoy them after the sun goes down. For your ocean adventures, the beachside towel desk can also assist with snorkel gear rentals, stand-up paddleboards and much more! Nearby there are two 18-hole golf courses that stretch from the mountain-side above Kaanapali Resort to the beach near the Maui Eldorado beach-side cabana.

Enjoy all that Kaanapali has to offer within walking distance. The 3-mile beach walk stretches from Sheraton’s Black Rock to the Canoe Beach just past the Hyatt Regency Maui and your condominium at The Whaler is right in the middle. The boardwalk is convenient for a morning cardio workout or a leisurely stroll with some coffee in hand. Shops and restaurants can be enjoyed in any of the neighboring hotels or at the Whalers Village. Relish the free hula performances at Hula Grill and Kaanapali Beach Hotel’s Tiki Bar. Enjoy fine retailers like Lululemon, Sephora, Roxy, PacSun, and Tommy Bahama. Leilani’s on the Beach, Hula Grill, and Monkeypod are great oceanfront restaurants at the Whalers Village along with many grab-and-go places.  

Many of Maui’s best catamaran and parasailing tours depart right from Kaanapali Beach. Literally, the boats pull up to the shoreline for loading and unloading. Snorkel sails, Lanai trip catamaran - Trilogy, sunset cruises, and parasailing are all just steps away from your resort.

Lahaina’s historical past can be seen and felt in the Historic Lahaina Town and Front Street, located within a 10-minute drive from Kaanapali. Once the royal capital of Hawaii and home to the oldest high school west of the Rocky Mountains - Lahainaluna High School, this bustling little town is a visitors’ paradise. It offers self-guided tours around the historic district with museums, shops, art galleries, restaurants, a boat harbor, and a beautiful 505 beach at the very end. 

The Outlets of Maui is located in Lahaina’s historic district where you can do your shopping and dining at a charming oceanfront setting. The stores at the Outlets include brand names like Coach, Banana Republic, Lucky, Adidas, and Michael Kors. You can leave your car at the Outlets parking lot and go explore the Historic Lahaina or dine at the oceanfront walk-in friendly restaurants: Waikiki Brewing Company, Pizzeria, and the Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar. The Outlets also host free weekly hula shows.  Enjoy weekly craft fairs under the famous Banyan Tree, Hawaiian music at the Baldwin House Museum and Second Fridays evening festivities. Most of the galeries on the Front Street participate in the weekly Friday Night is Art event when the galleries are open late on Friday nights, often offering live art presentations
