It was our first day in Hawaii with our 4, 8, and 11-year-old children, and even though we couldn't speak any English, the atmosphere was amazing. The staff was friendly, and everyone on board was in a good mood with drinks. Compared to other boats, the vibe was great, and I would love to ride on the same boat again.
4、8、11歳の子供と初めてのハワイで初日だったのですが、英語も全く喋れないのに、最高の雰囲気で、スタッフも親切、乗っているみんなお酒が入って気分良く過ごせました。 他の船より、ノリが良くまた同じ船に乗りたいと思います。

I participated in a cocktail cruise on the Friday of the fireworks event. There were no white chairs as a landmark. The reception was at 7 PM and the departure was at 7:30 PM, but we actually left at 7:45 PM, just a few minutes before the fireworks started. We cruised for about an hour afterward, but I couldn't tell where the hotels in Waikiki were, as I could only see the lights without any clear landmarks. I think it would have been better around sunset. However, the starry sky was absolutely beautiful! Since it was late, I quickly became sleepy and spent most of the cruise dozing off (T_T). On the boat, upbeat songs were playing from the DJ, and the bartender was making drinks while a young group was having a great time. I got the impression that it might not be suitable for older guests. There are various nighttime cruises available, like dinner cruises, so it's best to choose one that suits you!
花火開催日の金曜のカクテルクルーズに参加しました。目印の白い椅子はありません。受付19時出航19:30でしたが、19:45に出航し数分後に花火が。その後1時間程クルーズしましたが、ワイキキ界隈のホテルは灯りが灯る様子だけで何処がどの辺りかわからない。サンセットの頃の方が良かったです。ただ、星空が凄く素敵でした!時間が時間なので直ぐ眠くなってしまい、クルーズ中ほぼ寝てました(T_T) 船内ではDJ選曲のアップテンポな曲がかかりバーテンダーがドリンクを作ってくれ、若いグループがキャッキャ言うてました^_^ 年配層には向かないかなーーって印象です。夜のクルーズ船はディナークルーズなど数々あるので、ご自分に合ったものを選ぶと良いですヨ

There was also a Hawaiian dinner, but I opted for the affordable all-you-can-eat appetizers. It included four items like Thai-style grilled chicken and meatballs, along with a dessert cake. While it didn't feel luxurious, considering the $30 difference, the sunset, night view, and hula dance were wonderful, and I thoroughly enjoyed them.
ハワイアンディナーもあったのですが、金額の安いアペタイザー食べ放題にしました。タイ風の焼き鳥、肉団子など4品とデザートのケーキで、豪華感はなかったですが30ドルの違いがあるとかと言えば、サンセットや夜景、フラダンスなどの主役は素晴らしく、充分堪能できました。

At the time of departure, there were dark clouds in the western sky, and I was feeling like I would have to give up on the sunset, but surprisingly, the sun broke through the clouds at sunset, and it was amazing. A group of about ten cheerful Americans really lifted the atmosphere. I think $45 for all-you-can-drink is a great price. I want to go again next year.
出航時には、西の空に黒い雲がかかってサンセットは諦め気分でしたが、なんと、日没には雲の間から夕日が出てきて最高でした。
10名ほどのアメリカ人の団体さんが陽気で、雰囲気を盛り上げてくれました。ドリンクフリーで45ドルはお値打ち価格だと思います。来年もまた乗りたいです。

Nice relaxing trip on the sailboat. You can walk around the boat, or even lay down on the mat. Sunset is nice if you are in to taking pictures.
Don't go for the appetizers: meatballs, chicken wings, and mix of crackers, just okay.
Lots of alcohol if you like to drink.

We attended the dinner sunset cruise on Sunday September 10, 2017. Transportation is included at no additional cost. Our assigned time to ba at the pick up location was 3:40 for a 3:50 pick up. We were told to look for a black or silver Mercedes Sprinter Van. Many passed by with out stopping. As the time got later every van that flew past us just made us that more concerned that we may not get picked up. We were unstructured to call the Makani if there was any delay in transportation. When I called the recording said I was the third caller. When it finally said I was next and someone would be with me shortly, five minutes later it said they were experiencing high call volume and leave a message. I tried this a couple of times with no luck. Found out after the fact that they don't answer calls after hours so it does no good giving a number to customers. Around 4:10 a van came by. They had a small sign in the front window for Makani. The driver said he was just from a transportation company who gets called sometimes to pick up Makani guests. He received the call late which meant all the remaining guests would be that much later. We mad four stops on the way to the boat to pick up additional passengers and each was more upset than the previous. Makani should contact passenger and let them know that the transportation is running late or have someone answering the phone.
The weather was a little rainy but it was still. Ice to get out on the water. We still had a nice time and the sunset pics were okay. You can't control the weather. The food served was actually really good. Teriyaki chicken, rice, egg rolls, veggies, etc. cookies for dessert. Beers were $6. Other boats included alcohol for around the same price fare but didn't have availability last minute. When we saw the boats that we called which didn't have availability they looked over full. All in all it was a good experience.

It was fully booked since I made a reservation for Friday night. I was worried if it would be too crowded. The sunset was hidden due to the clouds, but I was able to see the fireworks from the Hilton clearly.
The deck railing side was filled with people who boarded earlier, so I had to view from between them while sitting. The buffet tables are first-come, first-served, so if you board late, you won't get a good seat with a nice view. Since there is time until the fireworks, it might be a good idea to think about how to spend your time. The welcome drink was too sweet, and the alcoholic cocktails were just okay. Each person gets one lobster, so be careful not to overeat. It's a pretty standard buffet.
金曜日の夜に予約したので満席でした。こんなに乗れるのかな?と心配に。曇りでサンセットは隠れていて見られませんでしたが、ヒルトンの花火はしっかり見られました。
デッキの手すり側は先に乗船出来た人達で埋まっており、座ってだと人の隙間から見る感じ。
ビュッフェのテーブルは自由席で、遅く乗船になると眺めのいい席は座れないです。花火までは時間があるので、過ごし方を検討してみるといいかもしれません。ウェルカムドリンクは甘過ぎ、アルコールカクテルもちょっと・・・。ロブスターも一人ひとつ出るので食べ過ぎ注意。無難なビュッフェかと。

This was my second time on the catamaran; the last time I was on a different boat. It was also my first time enjoying the fireworks and riding on a Mai Tai. I ordered an additional Mai Tai, and the crew was friendly, with the captain being very attentive. The fireworks were brief, but I was able to enjoy the night view of Waikiki during the evening cruise, which was very relaxing.

If the weather is clear, the sunset will be the best memory of the trip. The location is fantastic! I enjoyed a delicious Mai Tai while watching the beautiful sunset. Since there were no soft drinks available, it might be a good idea to bring a bottle of water.
While waiting to board, someone playing in the waves lost one of their flip-flops, but they turned it into a laugh. When getting off the boat, we were hit by a wave, and there were screams and laughter with the staff! My bag got wet, but it was fun! Even those little accidents become great memories.
However, motion sickness medication is a must. Dress in a way that you don't mind getting your lower legs wet. The check-in location is a bit hard to find, so it's easier to go straight from the parking lot through the narrow path between the two hotels towards the sea, rather than going through the Sheraton lobby. It's immediately on the left. If you come using the stairs from the Kai Market down to the sea, it will be on your right.
I think opinions may vary on the dinner cruise, but I recommend it as an activity for adults to enjoy leisurely.
晴れていれば最高のサンセットが旅の思い出になります。とにかくロケーションが最高です!美しいサンセットを見ながら、甘いマイタイを美味しくいただきました。ソフトドリンクがなかったので、ペットボトルのお水を持参するといいかもしれません。
出向を待っている間に、波で遊んでいた人がビーチサンダルを片方流されてしまっていましたが、それも笑いに変えていました。
船から降りるときに波に襲われ、悲鳴とともにスタッフと爆笑!バックが濡れてしまいましたが、楽しかったです!そんなちょっとしたアクシデントもいい思い出に変わります。
但し、酔い止めは必須です。膝下は濡れてもいいような恰好で。
受付場所がわかりにくいので、シェラトンのロビーを抜けるよりも、駐車場から二つのホテルの間の細い道を海に向かって真っすぐに抜けていくとわかりやすいです。すぐ左にあります。カイマーケットから海に降りる階段を使って来ると右手にあります。
ディナークルーズと好みが分かれると思いますが、大人がゆったりと楽しむアクティビティとしておすすめです。

We participated in the sunset dinner cruise as a couple this time. The views during the cruise were absolutely stunning, and as we departed, the sunlight and the approach to Diamond Head were exceptional! Once the sun began to set, it was truly a beautiful sunset.
I had imagined a certain size of boat based on the tour description, but it was surprisingly small. Perhaps because of that, we felt quite a bit of rocking at first. The meal, too, was not as grand as one might expect from a dinner cruise, but it suited the size of the boat, resembling more of a buffet-style dining experience.
今回のサンセットディナークルーズに夫婦で参加させていただきました。
クルージングの景色は申し分ない程の絶景で、出向後の太陽の日差しとダイヤモンドヘッドに近づくにつれ格別で!
また日が暮れ始めてからは正にサンセットと、とても綺麗そのものでした。
ツアーの内容的にもそれなりの船を想像していたのですが意外と小さく、そのためか当初かなり揺れを感じることになっていました。
もっとも食事もディナークルーズの名に想像する規模ではなく、船体のサイズに合う感じではありましたが地上でいう立食にも。

My husband and I had an amazing time on the Makani sunset dinner cruise while on our honeymoon in Hawaii! The only downfall, as others have mentioned, is having to wait to get checked in. With the arranged transportation, we arrived an hour before the boat set sail and could not check in until 30 prior to the departure time. The staff took excellent care of everyone throughout the night to make sure we all had a good experience. The food was casual but very good- especially the spring rolls! Drinks are reasonably priced with a variety of options. We especially enjoyed that the cruise was on a catamaran for a more intimate feel compared to a larger cruise ship. We would definitely recommend this sunset dinner cruise to anyone in O'ahu for vacation!

Unfortunately, the clouds covered the sunset moment, so I couldn't capture it beautifully, but it was really enjoyable to drink while watching the sunset over the sea.

When I recommended it to my friends, they also seemed to have a great time! I want to go again! Thanks to other people's reviews, I didn't get wet! As expected, wearing flip-flops and shorts is important because you will get wet up to your knees when boarding, so be careful with your clothing!
