All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

I participated in the 5 PM departure.
Spending the evening on the sea in Waikiki was wonderful.
Seeing Diamond Head from the ocean gives a true sense of Waikiki. Also, as the sunset illuminated the sky, the lights of the Waikiki hotels gradually turned on, creating a beautiful scene.
I would like to participate again.

17時 出航の便に参加しました
海の上で過ごすワイキキの夕暮れは、気持ちよかったです
海側から見るダイヤモンドヘッドはワイキキらしさを感じます。また、夕日に照らされて刻々とワイキキのホテルに明かりが灯り綺麗です。
また、参加したいと思います

A great evening on a beautiful catamaran. Views and sunset were amazing. An it was a warm breeze which enabled the crew to set the sail. Wonderful. Exciting getting on from the beach through the waves. The crew were excellent (Cariie was great) and the food was very tasty and the drinks strong! Recommend as a must when you visit Maui

I have to say that it was a great experience overall. The crew was very nice and accommodating, we were running late but they waited for us. The good was just average but the views of the sunset and fireworks definitely made up for it. We both had a really great time.

We are family of 5, 5, 8 and 10 year old kids. We all loved it! Easy check in, quick boarding, friendly staff that was very accomodating. Would definitely do it again.

We really enjoyed our sunset cruise and true to say one of the best maitai cocktails we ever had!

My husband and I took our parents and We all had a wonderful time.

I participated on September 19. It felt like there was light rain every morning and evening, but before the sunset, there was light rain on the mountain side, and several rainbows appeared! We were also able to see a rainbow from the sea near Diamond Head. The sunset was beautiful, but unfortunately, we couldn't see the green flash. There were only two couples of Japanese people, my husband and I, and another newlywed couple. The atmosphere on the boat was very nice, and it was fun with unlimited Mai Tais and other drinks.

9/19に参加しました。毎日、朝夕に小雨が降る感じでしたが、夕陽が沈む前に山側に小雨が降り、虹が何箇所か出現！ダイヤモンドヘッド側の海上からも虹を見ることが出来ました。夕陽も綺麗でしたが残念ながらグリーンフラッシュを見ることは出来ませんでした。日本人は私達夫婦と新婚夫婦の2組みだけ。マイタイ他が飲み放題で船上はとても良い雰囲気で楽しかったです。

Fantastic trip, great crew, and the food was delicious!! We were lucky enough to have great weather as well, resulting in smooth sailing and an awesome sunset!!

The scenery was breathtaking. One of the highlights of my entire trip to Hawaii.

I thought a smaller boat, where you can feel closer to the sea, would be better than a large dinner cruise ship, so I chose this one. It was just as impressive as I imagined, and the sunset reflecting on the water was beautiful! I was also able to take photos of surfers nearby from the same eye level. The boat's rocking was not as bad as I had worried, and I didn't get seasick.

The meeting point is a bit hard to find, so I recommend checking it out in advance on Google Maps.

ディナークルーズ船のような大きな船ではなく、
海が近く感じられる小さな船が良いと思い、こちらにしました。
想像通り迫力があり、水面に反射する夕陽が綺麗でとてもよかったです！
サーファー達が近くでサーフィンする様子を同じくらいの目線の高さで写真に撮ることもできました。
心配していた船の揺れもそれほどでもなく、船酔いもせずにすみました。

集合場所が少しわかりづらいので、
グーグルマップで事前に下調べしておくと良いと思います。

The staff was so wonderful. Very friendly and tentative!

A perfect way to finish our time in Waikiki, great music, great food on board and plenty of room to move around.
There was quite a swell way out near Diamond Head, so would highly recommend a seasick tablet!

I surprised my husband with the 5 star vow renewal cruise. The experience from the time John arrived with the limousine at our hotel, to the dinner cruise and back was simply amazing! Incredibly romantic! The dinner was so good and our server, Jeanette, was as professional as she was personable. My husband was speachless, but he did say yes to marrying me again.

Beautiful cruise, friendly, helpful crew and nice dinner.

We used this service with our family during the New Year. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any whales during our trip, so it ended up being just a regular cruise. It's something that can't be helped, but it might be tough for those who can't accept that. The kids were quite disappointed. I wish we had explained beforehand that "there might be times when we won't see any whales."

正月に家族で利用しました。私たちが参加した時は鯨に遭遇出来ませんでした。よってただのクルージングに。こればかりは仕方ないですね。って気持ちで参加できる方でないと厳しいかも。子供たちは結構ガッカリしてました。事前に「クジラには逢えない場合もあるからね」と説明しておけばよかったと、思いました。

This was my first time participating. Just like the reviews said, there were only me and one other Japanese group, and the rest were Europeans and Americans. It was fun with cheerful music and wonderful scenery. Although it was cloudy, I was able to see the sunset, and the view of the hotels in Waikiki from the sea was refreshing.

今回初めて参加しました。口コミ通り、日本人は私ともう一組だけで、あとは欧米人の方たちでした。陽気な音楽と素晴らしい景色で楽しかったです。曇っていましたがサンセットも見れ、海から見るワイキキのホテル群も新鮮でした。

The sunset from the sea in Waikiki was amazing. On the day of the cruise, I thought it might be canceled due to rain in the morning, but the rain stopped about two hours before departure, and we were able to see a beautiful sunset. I only knew about large ship cruises for sunsets, but the catamaran was just the right size and had a friendly atmosphere, making it very enjoyable. The Mai Tai was also very delicious. I definitely want to see the sunset again next time.

ワイキキの海からのサンセットは最高でした。
当日は、朝から雨で中止ではないかと思っていましたが、、、出航２時間前ぐらいから雨も上がり最高の夕日が見れました。
サンセットと言えば大きな船のクルーズしか知らなかったのですが、カタマラン号は丁度良い大キさで和気あいあいとした感じでとても楽しかったです。
マイタイもとても美味しく頂きました。
次回も是非サンセットを見たいです。

I was able to organize, finalize & make changes for a group of 35 people along the way through Veltra, doing so from some 5,000 miles away from the venue! The Veltra process, from beginning to end went so smoothly & without problem that I had to pinch myself several times during it, just to make sure that it wasn't a dream! ANYONE wishing to make plans for a special & successful event shouldn't think twice about the success that will come in using Veltra!

I had always booked dinner cruises, but I felt disappointed that the cruising would end without seeing the ocean views. That's when I found the sunset sailing. It was our honeymoon, and since it was my husband's first time in Hawaii, I decided to go for it and make a reservation. The meeting place was a bit hard to find, so I was glad I took a walk beforehand to scout it out. You can access it by going through the path between the Sheraton Hotel and Halekulani. Other than us, there were only two other Japanese participants, and the rest were foreigners ( *´꒳`* ). I generally like to visit places with fewer Japanese people when I travel abroad, so I had no hesitation in joining. It's great that Mai Tais are all-you-can-drink! There is a restroom, but I heard it's small, so I didn't drink too much and enjoyed the sunset and the views from the boat while sipping on soft drinks. There is some rocking. When the waves are high, it can be hard to stand. The foreigners were moving around while standing, but since Japanese people tend to be smaller, it's better to stay seated. At sunset, we were in the best position on the water, unfurling the blue sail and turning off the engine to sail only with the wind. The sunset spread out before us, and we had Diamond Head all to ourselves ♡ It was a wonderful tour, and I will participate again!

いつもディナークルーズを予約していたのですが、海の風景を見ずにクルージングが終わってしまうことに残念さを感じていました。そんな時にサンセットセーリングを見つけました。新婚旅行、旦那さんは初めてのハワイだし思い切って予約してみました。集合場所が分かりにくい所にあり事前に散歩がてら探しておいてよかったと思いました。シェラトンホテルとハレクラニの間の小道を入ると行けました。それ以外は日本人の参加者は私達を含め2組で他は外人です( *´꒳`* )元々海外に来たら日本人の少ない場所に行くのが好きなので抵抗もなく参加できました。マイタイが飲み放題なのも嬉しいですね！トイレもありますが、狭いと聞いたのでガブ飲みせず、ソフトドリンクも飲みながらサンセットと船の上からの景色を楽しみました。揺れはあります。波が高い時は立ってられないくらい揺れます。外人は立ってわちゃわちゃ動いてましたが、日本人は小柄なので座ってた方がいいですよ。サンセットの時刻には海のベストポジションでブルーの帆をひらいてエンジンを止めて帆だけで進むんです。目の前に広がるサンセット、ダイヤモンドヘッドを独り占め♡素敵なツアーでした。また参加します！

I think you'll definitely get a sense of being abroad, as there are many non-Japanese guests. The weather wasn't great on the day we boarded, but once we got a little further out, the clouds cleared and we were able to see the blue sky. We also got to see a big rainbow, and I couldn't help but rush out to the deck from inside the ship, laughing.

On Friday, we were able to see the fireworks from the Hilton Hotel, so at the time the fireworks started, we went up to the third floor and had the best seats to watch them! They turned off the lights on the ship, making it very easy to see! All the staff were wonderful, and we had an incredibly fun time!

I didn't find the ship's rocking to be bothersome, and the buffet food was delicious. If you're looking to enjoy a slightly different night, I definitely recommend this cruise!

お客様は日本人以外も多く、海外に来ている感は十分に味わえるかと思います。
乗船した当日はあまり天候が良くなかったのですが、それでも少し沖に出ると雲が切れて青空を見る事が出来ました。
また大きな虹を見る事が出来て、思わず船内から甲板に飛び出していました笑
金曜日はヒルトンホテルの花火を見る事が出来るので、花火が上がる時間には3階に上がり、特等席で見ました！！船の明かりを消してくれたので、とても見やすかったです！！
スタッフの方もみなさん良い方ばかりで、とってもとっても楽しかったです！
船の揺れもそこまで気にならなかったし、ブッフェのお料理も美味しかったです。
ちょっと違う夜を楽しんでみたい方には、是非このクルーズをオススメします！！

Dinner Cruise was awesome. Bus driver on the way was a ass and was nearly punched for being rude to my wife. Told her to be quiet and enjoy the ride. This after he told everyone one the bus we could joke with him because he used to be a shuttle driver.

Everyone on the bus had to drive by the exact same stops twice because he said we didn't know what he was doing.

Whoever scheduled the route didn't know what they were doing it took us nearly 50 minutes to drive around one block If the route would have gone the other way it might have lasted 10 enough said

This is a definitely a cruise for the older crowd. If you are wanting something upbeat and fun this is not for you. The atmosphere is nice and the fireworks were beautiful but it wasn't what we were expecting or hoping for.

This was my first boat, I have always had a fear of water. Decided to try something new and ended up having a wonderful time! The crew was great and it is such a relaxing ride. Good time to kick back, make new friends, and watch the sunset and fireworks. The best night I have had on vacation and would for sure do this again!

Great time, highly recommend. Are crew was very knowledgable, the ride was good and fireworks display was awesome.

This April marks my second repeat visit this year. While a pricey dinner cruise is nice, for me, the open-air catamaran cruise swaying with the Hawaiian waves is the best. Unfortunately, there were many clouds, so the sunset wasn't beautiful, but that's part of the charm of travel. I definitely want to repeat this again next time. As I mentioned last time, there are proper restrooms, so you can rest assured...

今年４月に引き続き、今年２回目のリピートです。
高額なお金を払うディナークルーズも良いですが、私には、オープンエアで、ハワイの波に揺られるカタマランクルーズは最高です。
残念ながら、雲が多くてサンセットは綺麗に見れませんでしたが、それも旅の醍醐味。
次回も、またリピートしたいと思います。
前回も紹介しましたが、トイレはちゃんとありますので、ご安心を・・・・

Missed the boat by 5 minutes. Couldn't find exact location. Tried to move the tour to another night but no response or effort. Didn't get refunded and over all lost $200. We are tourists and made an honest mistake on our end. Wishes there was an effort on there end.

Great cruise. Food was fantastic.. Sunset unreal.. Staff was friendly and enthusiastic.
Will do this again next trip.

We had an awesome time and we'll be back next year.

The meeting place is at the ocean side exit of the Outrigger Reef Hotel. From there, head left along the beach until you reach the area with an orange umbrella and a flag with the tour company's name on it. It's quite hard to find. When I arrived before the meeting time of 2:30, I was told that the boat hadn't arrived yet, and we would meet again at 2:45. After waiting a bit longer, we finally set sail around 3:15. There were a group of ladies typical of Western tourists, a few couples, and families on board. The announcements on the boat were only in English. I had imagined a boat speeding through the blue sea, but it was more about enjoying drinks and music at a leisurely pace. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, and instead of the blue sea, it rained at times, which was disappointing, but overall, it was still a pleasant experience. The ladies seemed to have a great time requesting their favorite songs and dancing.

集合場所はアウトリガーリーフホテルの海側の出口から出て砂浜を左に進み、オレンジのパラソルと催行会社名の入った旗が壁に貼ってあるところです。結構わかりにくいです。集合時間の2:30より前に行ったところ船がまだ来ないから45分にまた集合と言われ、再度行きましたがそこからもだいぶ待ちました。出航したのは結局15時15分頃だったかな？欧米人らしいおばさま集団と、数組の夫婦、ファミリーなど。船内の案内は英語のみです。青い海を風をきって走る船をイメージしてたのですが、ゆっくり走りながらお酒と音楽を楽しむ、というものでした。天候に恵まれず青い海どころか雨が降ったりしたので残念ですが、それなりに気持ちは良かったです。おばさま方は好きな曲をリクエストして踊ってとっても楽しそうでしたよ。

I participated with a friend. It was a pleasant cruise that really made me feel like I was in Hawaii. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they would greet us using the Japanese words they knew. The music, the refreshing evening sea breeze, and the sunset created a luxurious experience.

友人と2人で参加しました。ハワイに来たなぁって感じがする気持ちいいクルーズでした。日本語が話せるスタッフはいませんが、知ってる日本語の単語で声をかけてくれたりします。音楽と夕方の気持ちよい海風とサンセットは贅沢な時間でした。
