Maui Resort Rentals: The Whaler 562 - Fully Renovated 5th Floor Studio, Fantastic Pacific Ocean and Black Rock Views!
Enjoy spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean, Kaanapali's famous Black Rock, Maui's neighboring island, Molokai, and the lush West Maui Mountains from this upgraded interior courtyard 5th-floor studio suite at the Whaler in the heart of Kaanapali Beach.
It's fully renovated 500+ sq ft interior provides the perfect setting for small families and couples to gather comfortably, just steps from the soft sands of Kaanapali Beach. Enjoy renovated flooring throughout, upgraded fixtures, and gorgeous island-style decor.
The full modern kitchen has been luxuriously updated with custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and high-end stainless steel appliances, and is equipped with all the utensils and kitchenware you will need during your stay. Dine on the large private lanai overlooking the lush resort grounds and pool, or enjoy your meals at the air-conditioned, in-suite dining area.
With a sumptuous king-size bed and a queen-size convertible sofa sleeper, your group can comfortably sleep up to four guests. The en-suite bathroom has been fully redone with upgraded cabinetry, marbled counters, and a tiled walk-in shower for a lavish bath experience.
Catch your favorite show on the flat panel HDTV or utilize the free high-speed Wi-Fi included with your stay.
Nestled right in the heart of Kaʻanapali 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 Ocean. A beachside towel desk can assist with gear rentals for snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, 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.
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 and 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.*
**Please note that the Whaler has a $35+tax/day resort fee collected at check-out (subject to resort changes).**
***Please note that The Whaler is in the hotel-zoned area meant for tourism and thus safe from Maui's pending short-term rental ban affecting apartment-zoned areas.***
****Please note that The Whaler poolside grill area is currently closed until further notice. To accommodate guests during this time, temporary portable BBQs have been placed at the Tower 2 grill station for your convenience.****

Why they chose this property
West Maui has everything you could possibly ask for when traveling to the best island destination in the world. For fun in the sun, West Maui boasts a remarkable concentration of world-class beaches. The luxurious resorts of Kaanapali and Kapalua offer plenty of choices for upscale dining, golf, spas, and shopping. The magical backdrop of the Pacific Ocean and Maui’s neighbor islands of Lanai and Molokai deliver some of the most breathtaking sunsets you are ever likely to witness. Whales can be seen splashing off the coast in the winter and the summer gives way to Maui’s only spots for parasailing and jet-skiing.
What makes this property unique
This stunning, fully renovated studio at The Whaler delivers spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean, Kaanapali Beach, and the iconic Black Rock from its fantastic 5th-floor interior courtyard location.
