About this property
LIVE THE EXPERIENCE THAT MAUI HAS TO OFFER - Studio, Sleeps 4, with AC
Whaler 616 offers stunning views of both the beautiful ocean, Kaanapali beach and the gentle peacefulness of the Mauna Kahalawai mountains. Enhance your senses – the visual beauty of the waves crashing against the shoreline and the gentle sound of the living and breathing sea.
Whaler 616 is an air-conditioned studio which underwent a complete renovation, finished in April, 2025, in order to make your stay even more comfortable, a home away from home. New comfortable furnishings offer a contemporary Hawaiian flare with up-to-date technologies – a 72 inch smart TV and free WiFi. The King sized bed is complemented by a queen convertible sofa bed. The fully-equipped kitchen is adorned with new contemporary stainless steel appliances. Feel free to eat your meals al fresco on the lanai with an unobstructed view of the ocean or inside on the comfortable dining table with a four seat capacity.
The Whaler resort has literally all the amenities you could ever need to enjoy Maui life, starting with the simply immaculate grounds of the property. It sits on 6.6 pristine acres on Kaanapali beach which has been ranked by Tripadvisor in the top 3 of all US beaches and in the top 10 of all worldwide beaches the last two years. The large swimming pool, with an adjacent hot tub, is located only a couple feet from the spectacular beach. A fully-equipped gym, sauna, tennis and pickleball courts, hair salon, spa and concierge are also available for your enjoyment.
Next door to the Whaler is Whaler’s Village, a contemporary outdoor conglomerate of multiple clothing stores, restaurants, ice cream/shaved ice parlors, etc. Everything you could ever need is just a 2 minute walk from your studio.
THE TOTAL OWED INCLUDES THE DAILY RESORT FEE OF $41. NO RESORT FEE WILL BE COLLECTED DURING YOUR VISIT!
