All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

Me and my fiance had a great time, we send our hearts to Maui.

The sunset dinner cruise was quite crowded. Since I had reserved a 5-star experience, there wasn't much of a feeling of congestion when I arrived on the floor, and I was able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. The meal also progressed slowly, so many people went out to the deck to enjoy themselves along the way. While sipping on a Mai Tai and gazing at the sunset... I realized the sky was filled with stars. Fireworks erupted from Waikiki Beach, and the atmosphere on the boat reached its peak! After that, we returned to port while indulging in jazz. It turned out to be a wonderful day.

サンセットディナークルーズはかなりの混雑ぶり。5スターを予約したのでフロアに着くとそれほど混雑感は無く、ゆっくりと楽しめました。食事もかなりゆっくりと進むので、途中デッキに出て楽しんでいる方も大勢いました。サンセットを眺めながら、マイタイを飲みながら…気付くと満天の星空。ワイキキビーチから花火が上がり船内の盛り上がりも最高潮！その後、JAZZに酔いしれながら帰港。素敵な1日になりました。

Great food, good entertainment, great view of the fireworks, and ended the cruise with a fun dance party!

We booked this cor the sunset and fireworks. Seating was packed and food was okay / ordinary, what you would expect from set menu for hundreds. Staff worked hard, tried to keep things moving. Sunset was almost missed due to service. Noisy entertainment. Fireworks were short and low key, and hard to see with packed walkways. We were some what disappointed overall and regreted not going on a smaller and cheaper vessel.

I recently had the pleasure of joining the Waikiki Sunset Booze Cruise, and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the breathtaking views of Diamond Head and Waikiki to the stunning Hawaiian sunset, every moment on this cruise was filled with awe and wonder.

The highlight of the cruise was undoubtedly the views. As we set sail, the magnificent Diamond Head loomed in the distance, creating a picturesque backdrop for the entire journey. The vibrant hues of the setting sun cast a magical glow over the Waikiki shoreline, creating a truly mesmerizing spectacle. It was a sight that I will forever cherish and one that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Honolulu.

The crew on board the boat were nothing short of amazing. They were not only knowledgeable about the area but also extremely friendly and accommodating. They made every effort to ensure that everyone on board had a memorable experience. Whether it was answering questions about the local landmarks or simply engaging in light-hearted banter, the crew went above and beyond to create a warm and enjoyable atmosphere.

Of course, no booze cruise would be complete without the drinks, and the Waikiki Sunset Booze Cruise did not disappoint. From tropical cocktails to beers, there was something for everyone. The bartenders were skilled and quick, ensuring that no one had an empty glass for long. It was the perfect way to relax and unwind while taking in the stunning views.

In conclusion, my experience with the Waikiki Sunset Booze Cruise was nothing short of phenomenal. The views of Diamond Head and Waikiki were breathtaking, the Hawaiian sunset was simply beautiful, and the crew was awesome. The endless supply of drinks added an extra touch of enjoyment to an already incredible journey. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable experience in Honolulu.

My husband and I loved the BYOB Sunset Cruise. The crew was expert and helpful. They took pictures of couples and families if you asked and generally made everything fun and casual. I had never been on a catamaran before and I felt perfectly comfortable.It's a small craft, so you will get wet, but not soaking (unless you opt to ride on the webbing up front). Memories for a lifetime!

Crew was super friendly, awesome experience! View was beautiful and ride was fun. Crew also made sure our drinks stayed full!

My Father and Mother-in-law asked me to plan their vow renewal ceremony while we were in Honolulu. They wanted to renew their vows on the beach, but with my father having Parkinson's, I knew it would be a difficult trek through the sand. While searching, I came across the Star of Honolulu. They had everything we were looking for. My Father could have use of his mobility scooter, as the boat had an elevator. The dinner and entertainment were good, and the ceremony performed by the captain was intimate. The captain made sure that my father was comfortable and safe during the ceremony and paid special attention to both of my parents. It was a special time and one we won't forget.

I enjoyed myself and the crew was great. I would definitely do it again. Just wish it was longer than the hour. It went by too quick!

Five years ago, my family of three saw a pink sail catamaran yacht from a dinner cruise for the first time and decided that we would definitely take a ride the next time we came to Waikiki. However, it was postponed due to COVID-19. Now that my son's job hunting is over, we went on a trip just the two of us! It was an amazing experience. I want to share the beauty of the sunset cruise with more people in Japan. The jumping in was also fantastic. Thank you to the captain, the crew, and all the participants.

五年前、家族3人で初めてディナークルーズ船からピンクセールのカタマランヨットを見て次回、ワイキキに来たら必ず乗船すると、決めてましたが、コロナで伸び伸びになってましたが、息子の就活が終わって2人旅！
最高の体験が出来ました。もっと日本の皆にサンセットクルーズの良さを伝えたいです。
飛び込みも最高でした。キャプテン、クルーの皆んな、参加者の皆様ありがとうございました。

These views are memorable truly forever. So gorgeous as well as very yummy food!

Really eloquent set up, and a fun evening on vacation! Fun to be on the water compare to the nightly restaurants!

Delicious foods, and the music was amazing, we wish we could be back!

I recommend this experience because you can enjoy a sunset while cruising easily. Beer and Mai Tais are all-you-can-drink. However, there were no snacks available. There is also a restroom on board.

On the same catamaran, depending on the company, you may not be able to sit on the net at the front, but with Holokai Catamaran, you can. However, if you sit on the net, you will get wet, so wearing a swimsuit and bringing a towel is essential. The kids especially enjoy it, but one child ended up shivering from being soaked at the end. If you don’t sit on the net or at the front, you won’t get wet.

Most of the staff do not speak Japanese. You need to fill out a consent form for everyone in advance online, but you can also do it at the reception on the day. However, it’s better to complete it online.

お手軽にクルージングしながらサンセットが見られるのでお勧めです。ビールやマイタイ等は飲み放題です。つまみになるスナック類等はありませんでした。トイレも付いてます。
同じカタマランでも会社によっては前方のネットに乗ることが出来ませんが、ホロカイカタマランは乗ることができます。ただしネットに乗ると濡れますので水着着用＆タオル持参は必須です。子供達は特に喜びますが、ズブ濡れになった子供が最後は寒くなって震えてました。ネット＆前方に乗らなければ濡れなかったです。
ほとんど日本語は通じません。事前にネットで全員の同意書の記入が必要ですが当日受付でも出来ます。ただしネットで済ました方が良いです。

I had seen several boats from the beach beforehand, so I knew their size, but I was most concerned about getting seasick from the rocking. However, that worry was completely unfounded.

The boat moved swiftly, cutting through the waves, and while it bounced up and down, it felt more like an attraction than anything that would make me feel sick.

We ventured far out to search for dolphins (which, if you're lucky, can be seen from the boat), and with unlimited drinks like Mai Tais, we could enjoy our beverages while on board. The staff were very attentive, checking in when our drinks were running low and skillfully maneuvering the boat, providing a comfortable service.

We headed back to shore a bit early, and my husband and I remarked how it was still bright even though it was sunset. However, we stayed on the water until the sun had fully set and enjoyed a beautiful sunset. I joined the tour on the same day spontaneously, and I'm really glad I made the reservation. It became a wonderful memory before returning home!

ビーチから事前に船を何隻か見ていたので、大きさは分かっておりましたが、一番気になっていた揺れる＝酔うのではないかと思っておりましたが、全くの杞憂でした。
勢いよく走り船は波を横切りざぶんざぶんと上下になりますが、アトラクションのような揺れで酔うことはなかったです。

ぐんと沖に出てイルカ探索をしたり（ラッキーだと船上から見えるそうです）、マイタイなど飲み放題でしたのでアルコールを楽しみながら船を楽しめます。スタッフの方は大変きびきび行動されており、飲み物がなくなりそうになると声をかけてくれたり、船を操縦したりと、居心地の良いサービスでした。

結構早めに岸に向かったので夫とはサンセットなのにまだ明るいね…と話していたら、しっかり陽が傾くまで海上におり美しいサンセットを楽しめました。ツアーは急遽当日参加をしましたが、本当に予約して良かったです。
帰国前の素敵な記念になりました！

I participated with my mother.

We considered a sunset cruise on a large ship, but choosing this one was the right decision. The sense of distance and immersion with the sea and scenery is completely different.

I ordered drinks at the bar in my broken English, but the staff girl was very pleasant and accommodating.

Just one thing to note: be careful with the restroom. You can't flush the paper, so make sure not to accidentally put it in the toilet.

母と2人で参加しました。

大きな船でのサンセットクルーズも考えましたが、こちらにして正解でした。
海や景色との距離感、臨場感が全く違います。

拙い英語でバーでの飲み物を注文したのですが、スタッフの女の子が感じよく対応してくれました。

一つだけ、おトイレに注意です。
紙は流せませんのでうっかり便器に入れてしまわないように。

It was an activity that included everything you can do in Hawaii. Snorkeling from the boat was a great experience. The dinner was all-you-can-eat and drink, and it was a good value!

HAWAIIにいるからできることがすべて入ったアクティビティでした。船からのシュノーケリングは良い体験です。夕食も飲み食べ放題、コスバ良し!

The staff were so kind and fun. The drinks are endless, there’s a bathroom on board and the boat is quite large.

The crew on the cruise were super fun and made sure to engage with everyone. The cocktails were fantastic and were served quickly. The food was good, a plate of appetizers was served to each guest, so not a choice if there was something you didn't care for or wanted more of. The sunset was spectacular! I would absolutely do this cruise again.

We were the only Japanese people there. It was helpful to have notes in Japanese. The fireworks were also perfectly visible, which was great. I want to go again.

日本人は、私たちだけでした。日本語の注意事項もあり助かりました。花火もバッチリ見えてよかったです。また行きたいです。

Best place to see fireworks and have a little party too lol

We had an amazing time, enjoyed the view but the staff was more than welcoming!! We really enjoyed the views and the laughs you won’t regret it! The whole family enjoyed it!

Booked this sunset cruise last minute not knowing it was a booze cruise. We had such a great time! The crew was safety conscious but encouraged everyone to enjoy and have a great time. They took care of the people. The views were amazing! We met new friends and just enjoyed the vibes. I would definitely book this again!

Great views of the Maui mountains from the sea, a delicious dinner as well. It was one of our favorite evening on the honeymoon.

I enjoyed the special dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu for the last night of my trip to Hawaii, which was on Independence Day. The luxurious dinner and the entertaining show by the fun crew on board were excellent. The sunset was also very beautiful, and it was truly moving.

ハワイ旅行の最後の夜を独立記念日のスペシャルディナークルーズ　スターオブホノルル号で楽しみました。豪華な夕食と楽しいクルーの船上でのショーは
非常に良かったです。サンセットも大変良くて、感動しました。

Aloha! I forget the names of our Cruise crew (one female and two males) but all 3 were great hosts. The vibe and music were just what we needed as a family on our last night in Oahu. The drinks were so good... Thank you! Our family laughed, danced and overall just had an amazing time. The sunset was beautiful. We will definitely be back in the near future.


Mahalo!

Great sunset sail & swim. Was BYOB and had a good crew. 10/10 would recommend if you’re downtown and want to good time.

Our last night in Waikiki and we enjoyed every moment!! Fun and awesome experience!! There were 23 people in our group ages between 3 and 70, mom had a fantastic time!!! Would highly recommend!!

Mahalo and a hui hou

My husband and I did the sunset sail with my sister and brother in law and we all had such a great time! The crew were fabulous, very attentive and the photographer took great pictures and we bought them, I highly recommend that! We were on a new sail boat and it was beautiful and the bathrooms were huge, not at all what I would have expected! We will definitely do this again

The views were stunning. The crew was great. The food was delicious. Someone got seasick on the trip and the crew (especially Arein?) handled it smoothly.
