Kaanapali Plantation

Two-story townhouses on a quiet hillside above the Kaanapali golf course, where guests spend mornings watching whales from the lanai and evenings on sunsets toward Lanai. Best for families and groups with a car who want space and calm over beachfront, since the beach is a short drive down the hill.

What guests say

1 in 10 reviews mention whales1 in 4 reviews mention kids or family

Guests love

  • Whale watching from the lanai. In season, guests describe spotting humpbacks breaching over breakfast, and several units leave binoculars out for it.
  • Golf course and sunset outlook. Guests love the hillside views across the fairways to the water and Lanai, with nightly sunsets a highlight from the upper decks.
  • Quiet away from the resorts. Reviewers often say the complex feels calm and secluded, with rules that keep it peaceful, yet the Kaanapali resorts are minutes away.
  • Townhouse living, parking at the door. No hallways or elevators - guests park a few steps from the front door and walk straight out onto lush, landscaped grounds.

Worth knowing

  • The beach walk is uphill home. The beach is at the bottom of the hill, but the road has no sidewalk and the climb back is steep, so most guests drive the two minutes and park at the beach lot.
  • Pool and tennis are basic. Some guests enjoyed the small pool, but several found it uninviting or in need of upkeep, and one noted a poorly kept tennis court.
  • Neighbors expect quiet. A few reviews mention owners who live here objecting to noise, including kids playing in the pool, so lively groups may feel watched.
  • Highway noise on some lanais. Some lanais pick up traffic and sirens from the highway below.

The property is exactly as advertised. It is close to restaurants and shops as well as several beaches.

Our group enjoyed our stay at this VRBO! The host was very responsive & there was enough space for all of us comfortably (6 adults). It was nice having 3 full baths! The AC units in the 2 upstairs bedroom that are not the master took a bit for us to figure out how to keep them running over night, but after that our stay was smooth! The kitchen was great & well equipped. I would recommend staying here! It was very close to Ka’anapoli & the shops over there.

This was a great property to stay at. The property is close to the beaches and shopping, and far enough away to have peace, quiet and wonderful views at the end of the day. The condo was clean and cool when we arrived in the evening, and the whole process was super easy the entire trip. Enjoy!

★★★★★ July 2026

Excellent fit for our family of seven to reunite and relax in beautiful surroundings. The well-equipped, gorgeous kitchen was perfect for our family’s gourmet cooking hobby. We appreciated the quiet surroundings while being near enough to walk down and uphill to get to and from the beach. Mahalo nui loa for a well-maintained property!

Our stay here was great as a family of 6. Great location for visiting the beach, shopping, etc. The condo was very clean and supplied all kitchen items needed. Depending on length of stay, I would bring extra garbage bags and paper towel as we ran out of these after a few days.

This villa was the perfect stay for our Maui trip! It is located a short distance from Whalers Village (don’t miss the sunset on the beach!) and is close to many other gorgeous beaches and delicious eateries. The villa itself is top notch with a huge kitchen and outdoor patio, spacious rooms with comfy beds and 3 bathrooms which is super nice when everyone needs a shower after a long day of sand and sunscreen. This location was also very quiet and peaceful which made it easy to nap our toddlers (the trundle bed was also super ideal for young kids!!) I would stay here again in a heartbeat! 10/10 recommend

Property was clean, well supplied and convenient location for all our activities on Maui. Communication was excellent with the owners when we had any questions. Would definitely stay here again!! Even got to see a rainbow while sitting on our Lani.
