About this property

Luxurious Courtyard Garden Condo Perfect for Children and Family!

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.

The property is owned by KESAG Hawaii Ltd. incorporated in the State of Hawaii with registered domicile in Kahului, Maui (Hawaii Tax I.D. No. TA-047-515-2384-01).

Amazing property
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.

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. ❤️❤️

Poor accommodations, Great Location
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.

Honest Review
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!

Vacation
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.

Awesome location! Can’t be beat!
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!

Ideal for a family
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.

Family vacation
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!

Great Getaway
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!!

Great family space
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.

Overall, quite nice, but some problems
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.

About the host

Hosted by Regina and Kurt Sieber

Host profile image
KESAG Hawaii, a family company incorporated in the State of Hawaii with headquarters in Maui, bought the condo when the living in Tokyo became too narrow for our growing family. We traveled every year from Tokyo to Maui to enjoy the spring break and the summer vacations.

We tried everything possible and never got tired of playing in the pool, swimming with the dolphins in the ocean, snorkeling in Molokini, parasailing, whale watching, drive up Mt. Haleakela and biking down from the top of the volcano as well as the challenging drive on the winding road to Hana and the Seven Pools. Of course, as we grew older, we also enjoyed many of the beautiful golf courses in Maui and Lanai.

Our family with four children shares so many fond memories of our vacations in Maui, including Monika's wedding at the Olowalu Plantation in 2005. Now, the second generation has children of their own and the seven grandchildren are a great joy to the whole family and are learning to swim with the turtles. The photo above shows part of the three generations with Regina in the center of attention.

Why they chose this property

When our family visited Maui for the first time in the mid-1980ies, we stayed at a hotel and soon realized the space limitations for a family with children. The second time, the family decided to change to a condo which met our various requirements almost to perfection.

We also realized that Maui's reputation as 'The Best Island in the World' was more than an empty slogan and we soon became 'Maui-addicted' and wanted to come again and again.

The logical conclusion was to buy a condo for ourselves and The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach was an easy choice as the Premier Resort in Maui.

Now, with the US$35,000,000 total renovation and rejuvenation completed in 2012, The Whaler has retained its reputation as the Premier Resort on Kaanapali and received a Certificate of Excellence from
Trip Adviser and a 3-Diamond Rating from AAA.





What makes this property unique

The condo boasts one of the largest collection of Robert Lyn Nelson (Maui's famous marine artist) artwork in Maui outside of his studio. Special visits to the artist can be arranged depending on his availability on the island.

The property also features a large lanai and private lawn garden corner which is unique to a ground floor property and makes the unit particularly suitable for children. We are also close to the beautiful landscaping of the inner courtyard as well as to the Koi Pond where the children can feed the carp every morning.

The unit also provides easy ground floor access for seniors who enjoy the serene beauty of the scenery both inside and outside of the condo.
