When looking for a rental condominium on Ka’anapali Beach, you have several choices, including the Maui Eldorado, Ka’anapali Royal and Ka’anapali Ali’i, but my favorite by far is The Whaler on Ka’anapali Beach, located right at the water’s edge in Maui, Hawaii.

For our family of four, we find the Whaler to be the right mix of luxury and comfort. We opt to stay in a one-bedroom, two-bath unit. The kids take over the living room, with a fold out couch and roll away bed, while my husband and I can relax in the king bedroom suite.

The kitchen is nicely appointed, with full appliances and dishware. We manage to stock up the fridge on the way in from the airport and we don’t worry about breakfast or snacks the rest of the week. A washer and dryer is available on every floor, which is great when you spill your Mai Tai on your one good outfit .

Next door to the Whaler is Whaler’s Village, an outdoor shopping center, which includes restaurants (Hula Grill, Leilani’s) as well as several boutiques and shops. The center also has an ABC Store, the Hawaiian version of 7-Eleven.

The Whaler offers little extras to make your stay more comfortable – need a book? Check the lounge in the basement of Tower 2. Want to print out your boarding passes before heading for the airport? Visit the AOAO office in the basement of Tower 1. You will also find a full day-spa and small gym.

Whaler units are individually owned, owned in timeshares and/or administered by Aston Hotels. To check availability, visit VRBO.com or HomeAway.com for the individually owned units or timeshares, or book online with your favorite travel service.
