About this property

So Close To Ocean! Sleeps up to 6, remodeled, non windy side, very private, #657

Private Host. Special note, tower 2 Spaulding repair and lanai painting has been completed on our room and the 57 stack, and now has no impact on our condo, so total view of Kaanapali beach and sunsets are back for full view, and for your enjoyment. When you rent a room from a private condo owner, you get the room that you see in the photos, along with the location you choose to , that’s not always the case with large rental agencies or hotels. Our condo, is set up to accommodate 5 persons. Two bathrooms. Having the privacy of two separate rooms. (3 BEDS total, 2 kings and 1 queen) Many couples enjoy having this space for the themself’s and enjoy each having their own bath room. The king size bed in the bedroom just got a new memory foam mattress January 2023. Aloha! We just completed our remodel in Nov. 2022. We installed approximately 30 new pieces of cabinetry in kitchen and both baths, new kitchen sink, and lavatories, new faucets, quartz counter tops, new appliances, 27.2 cubic side by side refrigerator for all those extra things you need when on vacation. New hardwood flooring in the living area. The living area has a king size Murphy bed with memory foam mattress and also a queen size new sofa bed with memory foam mattress. Also comfortable chairs and 2 coffee tables. The 225 sq. Lanai has a large patio table with 6 chairs, plus a lounge. Perfect for the couple that wants their space, his and her own baths, and real privacy.
Or if your looking for a condo to share expenses, and still enjoy privacy, comfort, and excellent ocean front views. We have great comfortable sleeping arrangements, with 1 king bed in the bedroom, with a brand new memory foam mattress (Dec. 2022 ~ and a king Murphy bed in the living room, and a new queen sofa bed with a memory foam mattress. Sleeps 5 ~ and 2 baths. 905 square feet living space, and a Lanai approximately 30ft. by 8ft. Our location is perfect, if you like privacy to enjoy while enjoying your time in the sun on the lanai, this side of tower two is the place you can do that, along with those evenings your dining on the lanai, you don't have to share it with everyone else. Our prices reflect up to 5 person occupancy . There is no parking fee. The Resort does charge a Resort fee starting Jan. 1st. 2024 is $31.00 a day and starting April 1st. 2024 is $36.00 a day, Plus tax. which covers services such as, free parking, tennis court use, gym, beach towels, beach chairs, also free use of a large washer and dryer on each floor next to elevators. Mid stay cleaning is available for $100.00 each time. Because of uncertain times for travelers, buying travel insurance is a good investment. The Whaler includes free parking, etc. Also, this side of tower two is where you view Maui Sunsets. Room #657 Tower #2 - 6th floor***1 BEDROOM 2 BATHS, free WiFi access. Our photos tell the story with each picture. Will send more pictures, just ask.
Stroll the boardwalk on Kaanapali beach, sun bathe on Kaanapali's golden sand beach, use our beautiful pool and spa, tennis courts, snorkel at black rock, visit our gym and work out.
The Whaler is steps away from the Hula Grill, or shop next door at Whalers Village, ABC convenience store. Our barbecues are right on the edge of property next to beach walk, and beach. The very best! Go to Costco and load up!
(Special Note: for Departure day)
When getting ready to leave for home, here’s a few things, that we ask our guests to do before leaving.

Spectacular views
The Whaler is the perfect place to stay in Maui! Right on Kaanapali Beach and a short walk to Whaler's Village and restaurants. Beach towels and chairs are included in your daily resort fee which is a bonus. You can also rent umbrellas which I recommend due to the windy afternoons. We saw many TB umbrellas wrecked. The condo is exactly as shown in photos, The view of the beach, other islands and mountains is spectacular. You can watch the sunsets right from the beach or take a sunset or snorkeling sail that beach loads right next door. Condo was stocked with paper products which was a bonus. Having two full bathrooms was very convenient. Quick response from owner with minor issue. The oversized lanai was fabulous for morning coffee and afternoon naps. Be aware that this side of the Whaler is right next to a restaurant therefore it can be noisy at times. The grounds were beautiful and perfect for pics. I would highly recommend this condo for your vacation in paradise.

Beautiful Ocean View!
We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is beautiful and spacious for our family of four. George, the owner, is very responsive and helpful! This place has everything you need for a fun day at the beach. There are umbrellas, beach chairs, floaties and a boogie board. The condo is right next to a great outdoor shopping mall and some amazing restaurants. We enjoyed dining at the Hula Grill, Monkeypod Kitchen and Leilani’s. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by George Woolston

Host profile image
George and Judy Woolston, we have been owners since 1998 and purchased room #657 in 2005. We came to Maui on our honeymoon in 1971. We been in the building business most my life, and bought and sold property. When we first visited The Whaler in 1996, we knew this was a very special place, and began our reserch to own our own place on this wonderful beach front property like no other, even among the fine properties were surrounded with here on Kaanapali Beach. People ask all the time why I think the Whaler is different. Well it’s different in many ways, but here,s one no one can argue with. The Whaler property has two towers separated by a huge court yard, with no building in between the two towers, That gives a beautiful view of the mountains with fabulous rainbows when it occasionally rains, and a ocean view to go along with the Mountain View, so what that does is from the sunrise early in the morning. the sun shines its beautiful light from between the two towers and lights up your day from the beginning of the day. During the day you can enjoy both the beautiful ocean while you enjoy the mountains at the same time. Kaanapali beach walk is as good as it gets. your steps from Whalers Village, it’s so nice to break up the day and take a stroll, shop, eat, and much more. Black Rock is one of the great reasons people want to be here also. And if your so blessed to be here Dec. through March for whale birthing season, its just a time in your life you will remember. My wife and I are retired, and enjoy coming back, several times a year. We live in Boise Idaho, and enjoy its beauty. We have lived on a small ranch and have raised and shown working cow horses, had as many as 55 head at one time, and many more over time. We are presently down to zero. No pets and no kids, all grown and on their own, were free. If you have read our profile you know us some what, Like most people we all have something to say, and thats ours

Why they chose this property

All you have to do is look at the pictures on this site and from other owners, and its a no brainer. Location, Location, Location and weather. Kaanapali Beach was named the number one beach again. 2022

What makes this property unique

Being that the Whaler is a condo property, its so perfect for families and couples alike. Our condo is 905 sq. ft. interior and lanai area 215 sq. ft. you get so much more for your vacation. cooking, free washer and dryer on each floor next to the elevators, large private lanai, our lanai is blocked from the trade winds because of its orientation, and also the sunsets and the privacy that it affords. were on the six floor where your not to high and to low just right. always ask for additional photos. The Whaler is a place you need to come visit and expierence for yourself
