All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

It was great to see people from various countries gathered together, and we had quite a bit of freedom on the boat! I regret not getting in the water during the sailing, as it felt a bit embarrassing. The sunset was absolutely stunning! There was nice music playing, which added to the pleasant atmosphere. Coincidentally, it was a full moon, and after the sun set, the full moon rose beautifully, which was incredibly picturesque! This was an experience that is hard to come by in Japan. Even after it got dark, we could see the beautiful lights of Hawaii, and I enjoyed every moment! Since the guide spoke English, I didn't fully understand the content, but it wasn't a problem since we were just on the boat.

多国籍の人たちが集まっていたのも良かったですし船の中では割と自由でした！セーリング途中で海に入れるところ、何となく気恥ずかしくて入らなかったのが心残りです。夕日も最っっっ高にキレイでした！いい音楽も流れていて気持ちよかったです。たまたま満月とゆうこともあり、夕日が落ちたあと満月がキレイに浮かび上がってこれも最高に美しかったです！なかなか日本では体験出来ないことでした。暗くなってからもハワイのキレイな光が見れてどの瞬間も楽しめました！英語のガイドだったので話の内容はよくわかりませんでしたが船に乗っているだけなので問題ありませんでした。

The guys who led our sunset were great. They supported everyone with warm vibes and clear communication on how to act on the vessel. Swim time and the sunset were truly mesmerizing moments, we even a honu in the near distance! I enjoyed the mix of talking and also providing space for us all to just be with nature and the evening. It was our captains first trip, and he did great too (I think Alonsio!). My parents were celebrating they 37th anniversary and they cheered up the whole group over it, which made them feel so seen and heard : ) Mahalo nui loa. Highly recommend.

Let me start by saying I was a little nervous about booking this dinner cruise because I didn't know if the price would be worth it. I also saw in the fine print when booking that you were only allowed 3 alcoholic beverages the entire trip, which confused me since it says open bar.

I have never been on a dinner cruise and this was my boyfriends' first trip to Hawaii so I wanted everything to be perfect! We were picked up from the hotel and I immediately asked about the drink limit. He said there wasn't one so that was a relief! It was even nicer knowing that we were getting dropped back off at the hotel so we could drink as much as we wanted. We shared the bus with another couple and had some nice conversations.

We got to the boat and it was raining a little bit but it stopped almost as soon as we left the harbor. We did some sailing since the weather was nice and we watched a beautiful sunset. The food was served buffet style so you could go back as many times as you wanted and it was all delicious. The crab cakes and ahi sashimi were my absolute favorites and my boyfriend really enjoyed the tri tip and ahi as well. The dessert was excellent and even accompanied by Bailey's and an amazing raspberry dessert wine that I wish I knew the name of so I could buy some back home.

There was a photographer on board and she really tried to get pictures of everyone that wanted pictures. She posed us and we were able to get some beautiful pictures in front of the sunset. She was very nice and so was the entire crew. They were attentive, fun, joking, and all around seemed like wonderful people. The bathrooms were clean which is always nice, especially when you're on a boat.

We had an amazing night and really loved the fact that it was a small intimate setting. We've already discussed it and will be booking this sail again on our next trip to Maui.

YOU WON'T REGRET BOOKING!!!!!!!

The weather was great, and it was the best sailing experience. I was able to take a lot of wonderful photos. However, mineral water was not provided.

お天気にも恵まれサイコーのセーリングでした。
ステキな写真もたくさん撮れました。。ただ、ミネラルウォーターは配られませんでしたよ

I would recommend the tour to everyone great view of the city at night.

The crew makes it a fun experience. Fun and the views are espectacular! I highly recommend pink

We had a wonderful sunset cruise. A very low-key and relaxing way to view the sunset and beautiful landscape. Captain and family are friendly and kind and make the experience even more enjoyable.

We had a blast. The crew was amazing, the drinks were flowing, and the music made it so fun. This was the best way to start our vacation! Would definitely do it again.

Had a great time, will definitely do this catamaran cruise again!

The views were worth it. Didn’t really like the food. Opt out of photo as you will have time to go around the ship and take your own photos free of charge.

This is an inexpensive booze cruise with Beer and Mai Tai's.
Just a short trip straight out and back.
Crew were excellent at getting drinks, taking pics or whatever you needed.

From the beginning, we were greeted with smiles and outstanding service. Captain Cindy and crew were wonderful! The snacks were great and a small dinner was a nice surprise. Full service bar was beyond expectations.

What an enjoyable evening! Beautiful view, nice cuts of meat prepared deliciously, fun entertainment and we met some wonderful people. What a small world, met some folks from a nearby city back home. Strongly encourage you to book a special night- no regrets!

This is my third time participating. The fireworks themselves are short, so I think it's better to approach it with the mindset that you can see the fireworks during the night cruising. They anchor the boat so that you can see the fireworks from any seat. The staff is always friendly and enjoyable. The view of the fireworks from the sea along with the night scenery of Waikiki... I think it's a great value.

今回３回目の参加です。花火そのものは短いのであくまでナイトクルージングに花火が見られる、という気持ちでいた方良いと思います。どこの席に座っても花火が見えるように停泊してくれます。スタッフもいつも楽しく感じよく。海から眺める花火とワイキキの夜景・・・　お値打ちだと思います。

Staff was so nice and welcoming, great vibe on the boat. Staff walked around checked in with everyone and offered to take pictures. We had a great time and would definitely book again.

Was an excellent cruise with theee lovely, fantastic crew members (they were excellent with my older mother too). Boom net was fun, we saw a pod of dolphins and caught a great wave back into the beach. Lots of fun and excellent value for money. Would highly recommend!

We had a great time, the crew was amazing and had us all laughing. They made us feel complete even with having kids because we were the only ones with kids. We will definitely recommend this sunset cruise and I know will definitely be do this again!l

Even though it was cloudy, I could see a bit of the sunset and Diamond Head with a rainbow over it. It was amazing along with the flowing music!

曇りでも、サンセットは少し見え、虹がかかるダイアモンドヘッドも見えた。流れる音楽とともに最高でした！

The crew is extremely friendly and knowledgeable! You also get to see so many beautiful views of the Na Pali during the tour, which is really only accessible when on a boat tour!! However, I wouldn’t recommend if you get easily seasick, as the boat gets quite rocky.

It was just okay. Boarding went quickly and was fairly organized. You weren't too crowded in the dining room, however it was HOT. They need fans. We were sitting on the sunset side on the outside and the sun was in my face the entire meal. Between the sun, heat and movement of the boat I was miserable. I don't normally get seasick, but combined with the extreme heat and lack of breeze I felt like crap. I couldn't wait to get up top where there was a breeze.
The buffet had what was advertised, but it was a minimal selection. In my opinion it left something to be desired, I didn't even eat one plate. The desserts were okay, the fruit was fresh. The wait staff was friendly and efficient.
We did have a spectacular sunset and it is amazing to see from the ship. We missed most of the entertainment because I needed to be up where there was a breeze but people seemed to be enjoying themselves. We went on Friday to see the fireworks. There were so many people topside that we couldn't stand on the side of the ship you needed to be on to watch them. (You want to be on the right side.) We wound up going back to our seats (2nd level) and had a perfect view of the end of the fireworks display. Overall I couldn't wait for the evening to end so I could get off the ship and get into the air conditioning. Personally I would not go again, but as I said a lot of people did seem to be enjoying themselves. I should mention, I'm not overweight, so that is not why I was so hot, they really need fans in those lower areas. Had I not been so miserable because of the heat I may have had a better experience.

We went on a Friday for the fireworks. Everything from the food entertainment show and service was over and beyond. Would highly recommend! The sunset was absolutely beautiful.

We were enjoying a lively cruise with the captain's MC and the people around us, but as the sun began to set, the atmosphere turned quietly romantic.

As the sun sank lower, we thought we saw a large airship rising in the east, but it turned out to be a giant full moon. At that moment, a couple appeared to propose with a ring, and the excitement on the ship reached a peak.

In the end, the evening was capped off with a small fireworks display, reminiscent of bidding farewell to summer.

船長のMCのもと周りの人達とワイワイ言いながらクルージングを楽しんでいましたが、やがて日が暮れてくるとしんみりロマンチックな雰囲気に。

さらに、日が沈んでいくにつれ、東に大きな飛行船が上がってきた？と思ったら、それは巨大な満月でした。
そこで、指輪を差し出して結婚を申し込みするカップルも現れ、船内は大盛り上り。

最後は、ゆく夏を惜しむがごとき小さめの花火で締め括られました。

We were totally impressed with the crew. We chose to be picked up at our resort which was much better than trying to drive to dock and find a parking place and then drink during cruise and drive home.
Alii Nui was a great craft, smooth sailing and comfortable.
Choices of tastes and drinks were fine. Foods for the "Feast" were outstanding, including roast beef sliced as you requested, crab cakes, pork ribs, and more.
Sunset was outlined by clouds and then the moon came up. WOW.

One of my most favorite adventures in Honolulu. Beautiful sunset, spinner dolphins, and turtles. The staff is great helped with everyone get on and off the boat., They asked it they could take photos for us. Answered all questions.
I would highly recommend.

It was so much fun and the captain and crew were amazing, definitely made the cruise a lot more fun! The sunset was beautiful and romantic since I went with my husband on our honeymoon.

This sunset sail is outside of Waikiki. We loved the 2-hour cruise and opted for the open-bar option. The catamaran was pretty spacious and is a docked catamaran (walk right from the pier to the boat) instead of a beach catamaran like many of the Waikiki ones. The crew was really friendly. Would recommend getting the souvenir cup! It comes with a lid so you don't spill your drink when it gets a little windy and makes a fun souvenir.

LOVED this catamaran! I had been on this same catamaran previously for their Turtle Canyon snorkel cruise so I knew I would like the boat. I liked that the boat check-in was here in Waikiki at the Hilton Village making it super convenient. This saves some transit time from going to some of the farther harbors (i.e. Kewalo Basin Harbor, Honolulu Harbor, etc.). We spent the best day just hanging out at the beach then just walked over to the Port Hilton kiosk to check-in.

I also liked the later departure time than most other sunset cruises so we could have a full beach day and still have time to hop on the catamaran. The dinner was a smaller portion prepackaged & more like appetizers than a full-on dinner. The drinks were tasty & buying more beyond the 2 included was $2/each - not a bad bargain. Since we were on the Hilton's pier, we were super close to the fireworks and were coming into the Port Hilton just as the fireworks were going off.

If you get cold easily, I would recommend packing a windbreaker or light sweater. It doesn't get cold here but it does get VERY BREEZY on the water at night once the sun goes down. I had a super light windbreaker which I didn't actually have to even use until about 1.5 hours into the cruise.

Overall, great cruise! So much fun!

The staff was extremely friendly and personable. The boat ride was amazing, I would definitely do it again!

This sunset cruise was great! They had a professional photographer on the boat to take pics and they turned out fantastic!! There were a few things that they could work on: indicating where we're meeting before take off with a sign or employee, we left about 15-20 minutes late, and they only offered 2-4 small drinks each. However, it was a beautiful ride and we did true sailing the whole time. I did another sunset cruise earlier in the week and I preferred that company a little more TBH. But, still a wonderful experience that I would do again!

We really enjoyed the sunset catamaran cruise - amazing views of the water & Waikiki coastline with enough Mai Tais & Coronas to go around for everyone. Some bumpy moments so I would not recommend if you are prone to seasickness. Overall we had a really amazing time and I would definitely do it again!
