About this property

Maui Resort Rentals: The Whaler 701 - Oceanfront 7th Floor 1BR/2A, Sweeping Ocean Views from Lanai to Black Rock and Beyond!

Boasting an epic 7th-floor oceanfront location in the heart of Kaanapali Beach, Suite 701 delivers jaw-dropping ocean views stretching from Lanai to Molokai to Black Rock and beyond!

The expansive 940+ sq ft interior of the suite features one primary bedroom and two full bathrooms. Fade into a rejuvenating slumber with help from the ocean's gentle rhythm in the king-size primary bed. If you have additional guests, they can sleep comfortably in the additional queen-size convertible sofa sleeper. Both bathrooms have been completely renovated for a lavish bathing experience.

Prepare meals or refreshments in the full kitchen. An open floor plan provides the perfect setting to relax and reconnect.

Step outside onto the 400+ sq ft wraparound lanai and enjoy your own outdoor dining area as you experience year-round Maui sunsets, or simply relax in the outdoor lounge chairs as you take in the sights of Kaanapali Beach and Black Rock below. In addition, this corner location offers enchanting views of the verdant West Maui Mountains looming majestically to the east.

Catch your favorite show on the flat panel HDTVs in the suite. Free high-speed Wi-Fi is also included with your stay. Pack lighter with easy access to the in-suite washer/dryer.

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.

True oceanfront!

We absolutely loved our stay here, and will definitely be back. The sweeping oceanfront view is the absolute best place to drink coffee in the morning, a glass of wine in the evening, and anytime in between. Great location on a wide expanse of beach, with restaurants, etc., close and walkable. Beautifully maintained grounds and nice to have the pool option right there. Clean, comfy bed, and chairs to take down to the beach. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay during our week in Maui.

Location and views from this property are outstanding. Unfortunately during our stay the gas grills right below our unit exploded. It was a horrible tragedy to witness. Maui Resort Rentals checked on our well being that night. The unit could definitely do with some updating but it was very comfortable.

Great Time on Maui !!!

If you don't want to see panoramic views of the ocean from every window in your condo. then don't rent this Unit!! It's not posh, but it is clean, comfortable, kitchen has all the cooking and eating necessities, and the best feature is the wrap-around patio!! It has unbelieveable views of not only the ocean and surrounding islands, but the mountain and golf course to the southeast. The patio is so expansive that it has two lounge chairs, three tables, and 12 other chairs in case you have a bunch of visitors! Not only that, but all of the various boat excursions are based right around the Whaler below you, so there is a lot of fun activity to watch daily. The beach is right outside the door of Tower 1, as is the pool and grilling area that are always spotless and a good place to visit with your neighbors. We can't say enough about how much fun we had here and will definitely be back again, hopefully soon.

Disappointing to say the least

They were working on the balcony and nowhere in the listing. Did they state that you could not go out between the hours of eight and 430. Balcony was off with plastic so in order to see the view you had to stand up. We had a corner room which hindered sitting outside unless we were standing up. This unit should never have been rented under the circumstances. This unit is in need of updating.

Maui Refuge with a Great View!

The pictures don’t do this place justice - even better than advertised. Perfect location - can walk to shops and restaurants in Whaler’s Village and short drive to Lahaina for even more. Really good snorkeling with turtles in the afternoon just down the beach at Black Rock. You can rent snorkel gear at the resort (and lots of other things), but some local shops (The Snorkel Store) have better rates for the week. There were a few chairs and coolers in the room for use as needed, too. We took advantage of the water, tea, and coffee down at the front desk, too. The condo is spacious - way bigger than most hotel and resort rooms - it was nice having a separate bedroom, large closets, two full bathrooms, full kitchen and huge living room to spread out. We spent a ton of time on the balcony. The front part of the balcony gets shade in the morning and the side part gets shade in the afternoon/evening. Great sunsets looking out at two other islands (Lanai and Molokai). Fun to watch the people and boats and we even saw a sea turtle from 7 floors up! Even when you’re inside, you can see the ocean from all angles. Love the grounds, too, with the Koi ponds, fountains, waterfalls, and flowers! We were sick the last three days (maybe too much snorkeling), but the condo made even our last low key days a delight with the views and convenience. We had tons of adventures (Haleakala, Iao Valley, Sailboat/Snorkeling, Road to Hana), but I probably could’ve been happy just hanging at the condo!

Amazing, Condo 701

We have been to the Islands many times. This is by far the best location and condo view we have experienced. We rented a car but really didn't need to, most everything is within walking distance. The wrap around deck was amazing. Sunsets were unreal. You know you are in the right spot when all the sunset cruise tour boats are in front of this condo at the perfect time every night. The kitchen was a little dated but everything worked well. I highly recommend this condo. We will be returning as soon as possible.
