Maui Resort Rentals: The Whaler 965 - Gorgeous 9th Floor Studio, Fantastic Pacific Ocean and West Maui Mountain Views!
Enjoy gorgeous views of the Pacific Ocean and Maui's neighboring island Lanai, as well as views of the lush West Maui Mountains, from this luxurious 9th-floor studio suite at the Whaler in the heart of Kaanapali Beach.
Luxuriously remodeled, Suite 965 offers plenty of sleeping capacity for up to 4 guests with a sumptuous king-size bed and a queen convertible sofa-sleeper.
Prepare meals or refreshments with the convenience of a full modern kitchen featuring granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and elegant tile.
The bathroom has been completely renovated for a lavish bath experience. Catch your favorite show on the flat-panel HDTVs in the suite. Free high speed wi-fi is also included with your stay.
Nestled right in the heart of Kaanapali 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. A beachside towel desk can assist with gear rentals for snorkeling, stand-up paddle boarding, 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.
For added convenience, our exclusive courtesy shuttle offers complimentary transportation between The Whaler and several West Maui locations. 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 & 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.

Why they chose this property
West Maui has everything you could possibly ask for when traveling to the best island destination in the world. For fun in the sun, West Maui boasts a remarkable concentration of world-class beaches. The luxurious resorts of Kaanapali and Kapalua offer plenty of choices for upscale dining, golf, spas, and shopping. The magical backdrop of the Pacific Ocean and Maui’s neighbor islands of Lanai and Molokai deliver some of the most breathtaking sunsets you are ever likely to witness. Whales can be seen splashing off the coast in the winter and the summer gives way to Maui’s only spots for parasailing and jet-skiing.
What makes this property unique
This beautifully remodeled 9th floor suite boats gorgeous views of both the blue Pacific Ocean and the lush West Maui Mountains.
