About this apartment rental
This very spacious (1,440 square feet) condo on the ground floor of Tower 1 is ideal for families with children and also provides easy access for seniors. In addition, a wide lanai and a private garden corner in the inner courtyard (from which you can get a glimpse of the ocean) provide extra space suitable for relaxation, and allows room for children to play outside in a safe environment.
And, of course, when the children return home with dirty outfits, unit 121/123 features washer and dryer units inside the condo.
The condo is only a few steps away from all the amenities at The Whaler, including the tennis court, the new lobby building (front desk, concierge and activity reservation desk) , the daily feeding of the colorful koi in the inner courtyard pond, the gym and spa on the basement floor of Tower 1, the BBQ facilities, the Whaler pool with a hot tub and sun decks. The adjacent Pool Kiosk offers free towels and beach chairs. Last but not least, the sandy beach and ocean are right in front of the main buildings.
One minute away, Whalers Village offers some 60 shops and several upper class restaurants (Leilani, Hula Grill, etc ) on the ocean shore, as well as a food court for casual dining and children's favorites. Additional fantastic restaurants are found at the nearby Westin Resort and the Kaanapali Beach Hotel, both along the beach walk directly in front of the Whaler.
Unit 121/123 is unique within the Whaler property because it is decorated tastefully throughout the condo with Maui marine artwork by Robert Lyn Nelson. One can fully enjoy the beauty of the Maui waters and the underwater fauna population inside the condo! Mr. Nelson's original work can also be admired at the Lahaina Galleries on Front Street in Lahaina.
In addition to the wide-ranging improvements and reconstruction at The Whaler Resort as a whole during the past few years, unit 121/123 was extensively renovated during the second half of 2016. The kitchen has been totally redone with granite countertops and new cabinetry, and is fully equipped for home cooking. The guest bathroom has been newly equipped with a glass shower cubicle, and the living room got new sofa beds along with a matching loveseat and upholstery.
The master bedroom features a king-size bed, and the second bedroom offers separate double beds. We offer a range of pillows to allow guests to select the most suitable ones for their comfort. For smaller children, a highchair is available and cribs can be arranged upon request. For emergency guests, a deluxe air bed can be easily inflated with the accessories that come along with it.
Overall, the location in the center of Kaanapali Beach cannot be beat! In less than one minute by car, you find the Club House of the Kaanapali Golf Resort at the entrance of Kaanapali Parkway with one Championship and one Resort Golf Course. Further out, it is a 10-minute drive to Lahaina and Kapalua where you will find more beaches, golf resorts like the world-famous Kapalua Plantation Course (which hosts the PGA Champions Tournament early in January every year), shops, restaurants, art galleries, theaters and lots of entertainment.

Property was not clean. And needs to be ypdated
1.0
Facility was horrible cockroach infested. Everything was outdated. The plugs were so old you couldn’t charge your iPhone. And the toilet seat was loose in one of the bathrooms. The place needs a facelift and a paint job The only good news is I got my money back.
4.0
Perfect place for a family of 4. Ground level corner unit allowed easy in and out for the kids. Everything was kept up nice except the bathrooms. They both could use some updating and the toilet seat wasn’t on very well. The main bathroom had a funky odor which was unpleasant. Nice to have a washer and dryer.
5.0
We have stayed at the Whaler several times, and this was our first time staying at this condo. The owners were very prompt in responding to me, which I really appreciated. We were surprised at how much we enjoyed the ease of being on the ground floor. The only downside to this location is there is a lot of foot traffic and not a lot of privacy. This condo does have just about everything you might need except for beach chairs and an umbrella. Now, the Whaler does provide complimentary chairs, but you need to get there early as everyone gets chairs and leaves them on the beach with towels until they are ready to use them. This was frustrating and I just want to give future vacationers this info. This does not reflect on the owners, but it would be nice if they would provide at least a couple of chairs. The interior of the condo is nice but could use some updating specifically in the bathrooms. With that being said, we enjoyed our stay at this condo, and we would definitely stay again here. The Whaler is right on the beach and next to the Whalers Village, which has shopping and dining etc.
5.0
The location and size of unit excellent. Loved the patio and garden area. The second bathroom needs some fixing and the sliding doors to the outside are quite heavy and hard to move; everything else we enjoyed!
5.0
My family enjoyed our stay at the Whaler. The unit is in a perfect location with easy and quick access to the beach and pool. The unit has lots of space and had everything that we would need to make our stay comfortable. We are already making plans for another trip to Kaanapali and would definitely stay at the Whaler again!
5.0
Wondering vacation. This place was amazing. So much more than what I expected. The grounds were immaculate and Whaler’s Village next door was an added plus. We are already planning our next vacation and would love to stay in the same place. ❤️❤️

Fantastic location situated close to Whalers Village, Black Rock, the walking path and of course the beach. The pool was perfect for the days you couldn't get in the ocean because of the waves.

Beautiful location-can’t beat the whaler! Nice furniture, love the artwork and working AC! I hate to say this, but everything BUT those things needs to be replaced, remodeled, updated or cleaned. Carpets were fine, but the nails are poking thru. They did have a pack n play and high chair available-VERY CONVENIENT! The space of the condo was so comfortable for 4 people. The property manager was very responsive; however my issues weren’t a quick fix…primary bath toilet seat isn’t fully screwed on. Primary bathtub can’t hold water because the drain plug lever literally fully rusted off in hands when I was trying to bathe my two kids. In the guest bath, there is a bath shower wand. The part that holds the shower wand up, is falling off on the top AND the bottom…so it’s a total danger to the user-my young kids! The kitchen had pots and pans that were totally scraped up. FULLY FUNCTIONING ICE MAKER! The dishwasher is slowly rusting away. Most of the glasses needed to be washed before use because there were chunks of food still stuck inside of them…and this part. There were small roaches on the kitchen counters after 10pm. I only saw that when I was up late maybe 5 or 6 nights into our stay. It made it so uncomfortable to use the kitchen after that. We were so diligent about taking garbage out every night and keeping food locked away in the fridge. Teeny tiny ants were on kitchen counter 24/7.
This condo has the potential to be amazing! Just know what you are buying into.

As advertised.

We loved the location of the lanai as it was very private with the plants and trees. The new carpet was a nice addition to the VRBO.
We didn't have little kids with us but we did notice there was a highchair and pack n play.
We really liked being on the ground floor so no need to access the elevators.
We had one minor issue but the property management company and owner took care of it right away.
There was one boogie board in the closet along with some snorkel equipment and 2 coolers. There was also some tennis rackets and pickleball paddles.
In case anyone wants to know what was in the starter kit--it included two rolls of paper towels, several rolls of toilet paper, two small bottles of body lotion, shampoo and bar soap.

This was a great property for our family. We thoroughly enjoyed being on the ground floor and having easy access to the grounds and ocean. The rooms are very spacious and there was plenty of room for everybody.

New carpet installed just weeks ago. Very spacious condo suited my family of four, plus my mother in law. Floor unit turned out to be great with such easy assess. Condo perfectly located on a sandy area of beach. The specific unit was quiet and as described.

It is a home away from home, it's so comfortable staying here and kid friendly. They always have beach toys in the closets. Can hardly wait to make reservations again for next year! Close to everything!
5.0
We just returned from an amazing stay at the Whaler. We did not notice any cleaning issues. The sliding doors were a bit tight, but didn’t cause any issues.
Location is one of the best on beach. Easy first floor access was awesome for our family and young kids.
Additional $25/day roughly $200/week in resort fees collected at check in. This includes towels, beach chairs, coffee tea, parking, fitness center access.
Great dining options near by, short 30 second walk through the cut through to an ABC store for quick essentials. Grocery only about 5 min away. Short walk to black rock. We will be back!
4.0
The first floor garden location is perfect for a family. The unit is quite large and roomy. As stated in other comments, the bathrooms are could use some updating and the carpets need cleaning. Regardless, we had a wonderful time at the Whaler.
5.0
This was the perfect condo for our family stay. We’ve stayed at the Whaler before but with little ones the ground floor was perfect. The short walk to the beach or pool made it easy to get everyone out and going. Beds were comfy and lots of space to move about & not be tripping over each other. We hope to come back soon!

This property looks much nicer online. With that said, it has potential to be luxurious with just a few updated. The carpet is still the same and it has an odor. It was supposed to be replaced two weeks ago and supposedly has been in since February….Hmmmn. There were little bugs all over the kitchen so all food had to be stored inside the fridge. We were not comfortable to use the counters or the stove due to the bugs. We even stored our few dishes and silverware we used for breakfast in the fridge which was very clean. The ants were also all over in the bathroom. We did check with the front desk and they said they have regular exterminators. The master bathroom door was ajar all the time because the bolt is sticking out and so closing the door is impossible. Overall the unit is lovely as far as decorating, very Hawaiian vibe which I like and the beds were comfortable. The rooms are all quite large except one bathroom. Previous reviews indicated problems open and closing the patio doors which is still an issue and has not been addressed so using the patio or obtaining fresh air when home was difficult. I enjoyed the week but this is overpriced based on the issues we encountered. Please replace the coffeemaker!

Enjoyed our stay and location of the condo.

This condo unit and location is superb. Our kids (teens) think this is the best location in Maui with beach proximity and walking distance to Whalers Village. Property manager was very professional and prompt.
Room is a little dated, but clean, and you cannot beat the price for how huge this condo is. Would stay again and again here!!
5.0
This space was perfect for family use. Large enough shared space for family games, yet large enough bedrooms and bathrooms to keep your sanity. Fist level corner location has many advantages. The location of this property is also ideal for last minute store runs, beach access, and not needing a rental car.
5.0
Great property at the Whaler with perfect access to the pool and beach being a ground floor unit. Loved how spacious this unit was and the bathroom shower was really awesome! Beds were very comfortable and great art work throughout. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was a real plus!

Unit was in desperate need of upgrading of old, mildew smelling carpet and not very clean overall
5.0
Great location! Good price for a 2 bed/ 2 bath unit. Lots of room, had everything we needed. The patio doors were difficult to open and close and the dryer didn't work. Over all we enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.
4.0
The unit is a mixture of original and upgraded areas. The beds were comfortable and the unit was roomy. The kitchen had been redone at some time and was adequate. The biggest problem was the sliding doors are original and VERY hard to move. We called for service and the technician made them worse. After he left, we couldn't move or lock the doors and the A/C no longer worked because the sensor on the door was not aligned. We called repeatedly for the tech to return but kept getting excuses. The original master bath shower valve was also VERY difficult to operate and the technician also couldn't fix that. The unit has great potential but needs some work to upgrade original features.
5.0
We stayed with 4 adults and two young children. The location is perfect. It’s next to Whaler’s Village which has multiple restaurants, shops and even an ABC store. There is a nice sandy beach just across the boardwalk, so you don’t have to search for beach access at all. It’s about a 5 minute walk to Black Rock which has nice snorkeling and a little cliff to jump off.
The unit is large and has a full kitchen with plenty of cooking utensils. Dark curtains in the rooms, so the sun never woke us up. The master bedroom is large and quiet, so the sleeping kids were never disturbed by the adults in the living room area. Overall, great stay, nice convenient unit and met all of our expectations. Will stay again.
5.0
Excellent property location, directly next to the coast and adjacent to Whalers Village. The location of the rooms in Whaler Resort is on the first floor, so that is a big bonus. The property owners/managers were also very quick to answer all of our questions, usually within 24hrs. For improvement, the bathroom and carpets could use some renovation, but overall clean and very satisfactory. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

We had a fantastic stay. Thank you Kurt. Your property ticked all the boxes - location, comfort, size... All the inclusions provided at the property was very thoughtful to guests to maximise their time in Maui. I was aware of the age of bathroom from the reviews but it was clean and well kept. Maintenance were responsive to assist with getting the shower working. I would definitely be staying again in future when we visit Maui.

Can't wait to go back! Loved how spacious the condo was and, as we love to cook, we were very pleased with the cookware and utensils. Owner was very responsive to any questions. Also left 2 pairs of airpods which the cleaning staff turned in and is mailing back to me! Thanks Curt and staff!!

We totally enjoyed our stay! It was so convenient being on the ground floor with the lanai opening onto the surrounding grounds. It couldn’t have been better for us.

Perfect!
We knew from past reviews property needed updating. It was perfect for our small family. Everything in walking distance. The dryer wasn't working but WOW the communication and response was outstanding!! We can’t wait to return and would definitely stay here again!!
Thank you Kurt!!

Very spacious
We had four adults staying here. This was the most spacious condo we have stayed in. Lots of sliding glass doors onto a beautiful patio area. This was our first time staying on a ground level unit and we loved it! This would be a perfect place if you have kids because of the nice patio. We had everything we needed, check in and parking is a breeze. The owners are very communicative and answered all my questions very quickly. There are lots of restaurants and shops right there and you are right on the beach. It was very windy while we were there but the patio is situated so you can sit outside and the wind doesn’t blow everything away. So nice!

Missing Maui already
Resort itself was very beautiful and manicured. Staff was very pleasant and helpful. The room itself was quite spacious and clean. We found all the pots/pans/utensils we needed in the kitchen to make meals. The main bathroom could use a little fixture updating but overall everything worked as it should. It was a nice home away from home.

Overall stay was great!

Another amazing stay here
I love this rental. This is our second year staying here with my sons. I like that it’s a ground unit. The place is very spacious and easily fit the four of us. I also love that it is close to whalers village. I will definitely stay again
