Location: The Whaler, Kaanapali, West Maui, Maui, Hawaii, USA (Located on famous Kaanapali Beach-NOT North Kaanapali Beach!) View Map
Accommodations: Oceanview 1 Bedroom Condo, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
Imagine yourself watching the nightly torch lighting & sunset dive from famous Black Rock while dining or lounging on your private 29' tiled lanai. Or seeing a dramatic whale breech in season while sitting on your living room sofa. The sweeping 12th floor penthouse view of the ocean, beach, Molokai & on up the coast & mountains is awe-inspiring. Even the king bed has an ocean view!
Our top floor condo is not a courtyard unit so we have no building blocking our spectacular view. Ask websites if their view photos are from the actual condo unit and if the condo is on exclusive main Kaanapali Beach , NOT just the golf course or North Kaanapali Beach. Ours is, but many are not.
Furnished with a sumptuously designed, updated Island/Asian decor, we've been told that you can have a wonderful vacation without even leaving the condo. The view is that breath taking.
Electronics include 2 TVs(one 37" flatscreen), 2 DVDs, 2 VCRs, HBO & stereo CD system. Drawer with CDs, DVDs,& VHS tapes. We provide free wireless internet to our guests.
Just step outside to the pool and the heart of world famous
Kaanapali Beach. Cross the tree-lined parkway at the back to golf. Or walk next door to Whalers village for shopping and restaurants. Be as active or as relaxed as your dreams with everything you need for your Maui vacation in our unique location knowing that, at the end of the day, your penthouse view awaits you.

Map & Owner's Profile
Whaler 1 Bedroom Penthouse - Pinch Yourself Sweeping Oceanview
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose The Whaler
We chose our particular condo unit because of the incredible sweeping view. Because it is on 12th floor of the Maui Revealed book's recommended side of The Whaler (Tower 1 North side) the ocean view from our lanai, living room and bedroom is unobstructed by other buildings. You are NOT looking right our into another hotel or condo. Ultimate privacy because,unlike most units, it's not possible for people in other buildings to look into our condo.
We chose The Whaler for its prime location on Kaanapali Beach. Great snorkeling at famous Black Rock to the right. To the left is great shopping at Whalers Village. Behind us is the two Kaanapali golf courses. What more could you ask for?
The Unique Benefits at this Oceanview 1 Bedroom Condo
If you get tired of lounging on the lanai watching the mesmerizing ocean, sandy beach, Black Rock divers, whales and the occasional passing ship, you are mere steps from the beach side pool and beautiful Kaanapali Beach or restaurants & shopping next door.
Fabulous snorkeling site and scenic culturally significant rock outcropping with nightly ceremonial torch dive at sunset. Part of the sweeping view from our lanai (even from the sofa).
