All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

We had an great time and the staff was awesome. It was a beautiful evening on the water and enjoyed everyone on board.

If you want music, dancing, wind in your face, then you need to try this! Add to your experience, the maitai’s and fireworks, it turned out to be The start of a great night!

The views from the catamaran sail tour were outstanding. I saw two humpback whales breach. The crew was so friendly and helpful. It's a very popular tour, though, so book ahead on line to assure that you are able to have the experience. If your staying on Waikiki Beach, you can just walk down the beach to get on board. I would go again.

The explanation for the transfer from the hotel to the cruise ship was in English, so I could hardly understand it. The food was delicious, but the inside of the ship was cold, and there were people drinking hot water. There was quite a bit of time until the fireworks, and it was disappointing that the other children got bored and started running around.

ホテルからクルーズ船まで送迎での説明は英語でしたので　ほぼわからずでした。
食事は美味しくいただきましたが船内が寒くて白湯を飲んでる人たちもいらっしゃる状態でした。
花火までの時間がかなりあり　他の子供たちは飽きてしまい運動場化してたのが残念！

I participated in the sunset cruise on a catamaran. On the day of the event, we gathered at the catamaran booth located by the beachside of the Sheraton Hotel. There were already participants gathered, and once on board, there were about 40 people, creating a lively atmosphere.
It was an open bar, and the cocktail called Mai Tai was very delicious. I thought the drink list was also extensive and great.
The sunset was magnificent, and I was able to spend a wonderful time on the waters of Hawaii. It was a thoroughly satisfying two hours.

カタマラン号のサンセットクルーズに参加しました。当日はシェラトンホテルのビーチサイドにあるカタマランブース集合でした。既に参加者が集まっており、乗船すると40名程居て賑わっていました。
オープンバー方式となっていて、マイタイと呼ばれるカクテルがとても美味しかったです。ドリンクのリストも豊富で良かったと思います。
夕焼けも見事で、ハワイの海から素晴らしい時間を過ごすことができました。大満足の2時間でした。

I thought it would be difficult to see whales, but we were able to see them quite easily! It was a great experience with my child. I believe it will be a memorable cruise.

クジラはなかなか見れないのかなと思ってましたが、普通に見れました！
子供と一緒にいい体験が出来ました。記憶に残るクルーズになると思います。

I was a bit anxious because of the rain and wind, and I could feel the boat swaying, but I was able to see the tail fin and the back, as well as the spinning movements that I had seen in videos. I was really happy to capture the tail fin flapping on video while I was prepared to film! If the weather had been nice, I would have wanted to go outside to see, but since it was raining this time, I watched from indoors. However, it was still visible from inside, so the rain wasn't too much of a concern. In that sense, it was a fun activity even in rainy weather, so I was glad. I would like to go again when I visit in winter!

雨で風もあり少し船の揺れを感じていたのでどうなるかなと不安でしたが、なんども尾びれや、背中、動画などで見るようなばしゃんと回転するような姿もみれ、少し構えて動画撮影したいたら尾びれバタバタが撮られていてとても嬉しかったです！天気だったら外に出て見たかったですが、今回は雨だったので室内から見ました。でも、室内からでもみられるため雨でもそこまで気になりませんでした。そういう意味では雨天でも楽しめるアクティビティでしたので良かったです。また、冬にいくときは行きたいと思います！

I was able to see it right after we set out, and I got to see it many more times after that! It was amazing that it showed up again just when we were about to return to the port! It was also fun to see everyone moving along with the captain's announcements about the direction!

出向してすぐに見れてその後も何度も見れました！最後もう港に戻ると言う時にも姿を見せてくれて最高でした！キャプテンの何時の方向というアナウンスと共に皆んなが移動するのも楽しかったです！

We boarded the bus at the meeting point, but it took some time to pick up more passengers at a hotel along the way before reaching the boarding location. I had been on the ship before, but its aging was quite noticeable.

集合場所からバスに乗り込みましたが、途中のホテルでまた乗客を乗せ乗船場所には時間がかかりました。船は以前にも乗ったことがありましたが老朽化が目立ちます。

Our trip was amazing! Great food and drinks! The entire staff was very accommodating and served the best food and drinks! The catamaran was very safe and top of the line. Very fun atmosphere! Our cruise also turned into whale watching! We had so much fun we booked another trip a few days later. We would recommend this trip if you want to have a beautiful, fun evening!

Since I was staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, I went directly to the meeting place. Please note that there is no office at the meeting location. I used Google Maps for navigation, and there were both Japanese and foreign participants. Drinks and snacks were provided as we departed. The yacht ride was comfortable, and we enjoyed views of Diamond Head and Oahu from the ocean side, which are not usually seen during sunset. There was plenty of time to enter the water, but I didn't go in because I didn't bring a snorkel, there didn't seem to be many fish, and it looked cold. However, those who did go in seemed to be having a great time floating around. If I had brought a snorkel, I might have gone in since I enjoy seeing underwater. On the way back, it felt quite cool due to the wind, so I think it's essential to have something to wear, especially during this season.

ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ宿泊だったので直接集合場所へ。集合場所にオフィスがある訳ではありませんのでご注意を。私はGoogleマップでナビして行きました半分日本人、半分外国の方での利用。飲み物、菓子類を出発と同時に案内してくれました。ヨットの乗り心地も良くサンセットまでは普段見ることのない海側からのダイヤモンドヘッド、オアフ島を見れました。海に入る時間も十分ありましたが、シュノーケルを持ってきてなかったこと、魚がいそうではなかったこと、寒そうだったこともあり私は入りませんでしたが、入っている方はプカプカと楽しそうでした。シュノーケルを持って行ってれば海中を見ることは好きなので入っていたかも。帰りは風もあり、かなり涼しく感じられるので羽織るものは特にこの時期は絶対必要だと思います。

The boat crew was amazing. You will take your shoes off prior to entering the boat and the crew assists with the facilitation of passengers onto the vessel. The main challenge is timing the waves with getting passengers on board. The crew did a great job with this and ensured everyone stayed dry (for the most part!) Once on the boat there are several different seating options: Bean bag chairs, bench seating down by the bar area, and seating on the front of the vessel. I would recommend sitting in the bean bags as they are comfortable and provide a great view (just be careful with your phone as there are slits it could possibly fall through into the ocean.)

Dinner was served on the boat and it was excellent. The brussel sprouts and chicken bites were delicious! Drinks were also served and the crew did a great job with serving everyone in a timely and frequent manner. The trip was extra special for me as my wonderful fiance (then boyfriend) proposed to me as the sun set over the mountains. My friends worked with the crew members to make the moment extra special as they deliberately turned the boat for us to see the sunset in our engagement pictures. During/after the proposal they provided us with a champagne shower and the rest of the bottle of champagne! Truly a moment we will never forget.

A++ experience!

I was able to see the whales' spouts and backs! It was more fun than I expected to be so close to the whales. We also saw a turtle right after we set sail. Although we didn't see any jumps, the view of Waikiki from the ocean was very beautiful!

クジラの潮吹きと背中を見ることができました！思っていたよりも近くにクジラがいて楽しかったです。出航してすぐに亀も見れました。
ジャンプは見れませんでしたが、海側から見るワイキキの風景はとても綺麗でした！！

The sunset was amazing and moving! The Mai Tai has less alcohol, so I think even those who are not strong with alcohol can enjoy it. The wind is strong and it's a bit chilly, so you'll need something to wear.

サンセットが素晴らしくて感動❣️マイタイはアルコール少なめなのでお酒の弱い方でも飲めると思います風が強く肌寒いので羽織るモノは必要です。

I was surprised to see whales so close to the coast. I was also happy to see them spouting several times. The ship was large and impressive, and I didn't get seasick.

海岸からあれほど近くに鯨がいるなんて驚きでした。潮吹きも何度も見られて嬉しかったです。
船は大きくて立派で、船酔いもしませんでした。

We thoroughly enjoyed our sunset cocktail cruise. The staff on board was very accommodating. They aimed to please and they couldn’t have been more helpful. We would certainly recommend this cruise for those looking for a pleasant two hours of sailing.

The all-you-can-eat snacks and drinks, including alcohol, were great. Meals in Hawaii are quite expensive, so I had been struggling to eat my fill for a while, but this day I had dinner here, and the cocktails were delicious too.

Of course, the cruising was amazing. I've never seen such a beautiful sunset before. A couple of mother and baby whales came close to us! You could only see their backs and tails above the water, but they were adorable. When I went whale watching in Waikiki, I could only see them tiny and far away, so I really appreciated this tour.

I highly recommend it. There was a bit of distance from the hotel to the meeting place, so it was my first time renting a car overseas, but I think driving on the Big Island is relatively easy. I'm glad my debut went well. Thanks to that, I was able to visit various beaches, and I'm grateful for that!

お菓子とアルコール含む飲み物が食べ放題　飲み放題でした。とにかくハワイの食事が高いので　なかなかお腹いっぱい食べれない日が続いていて　この日はここで夕飯がわり　カクテルも美味しくて良かったです。
もちろん　クルージングは　最高でした。あんな綺麗なサンセット今まで見た事ありません。くじらの親子も2組くらい近くに来てくれました！背中と尻尾くらいしか水面から見えませんが　可愛かったです。ワイキキに行った時もホェールウォッチングして来たのですが、ほんと遠くにちっちゃーく見えただけで　あんなものかと思ってただけに　このツアーは良かったーと思います。
おすすめです。ホテルから集合場所までちょっと距離があったので海外初めてのレンタカーでしたが、ハワイ島は運転しやすい方だと思います。デビュー上手く行って良かったです。おかげで、色んなビーチに遊びに行けて
その辺りも感謝してます♪

I participated in early February. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales and just ended up cruising. I was really hoping to see whales, so it was disappointing. They did issue a free boarding ticket for the next time, but it only covers the boarding, and you have to pay for the trip to the location yourself. Due to scheduling conflicts, I had to give up on it. I think those who are planning to participate should consider their schedule in case they don't see any whales.

2月上旬に参加しました。クジラは見れずただクルーズして終わりました。
クジラを見たい！との思いで参加したので残念でした。
一応、次回乗船無料券の発行がありましたが、これ乗船のみで、現地迄は自腹との事。スケジュールの都合もあるので断念しました。
これから参加の方は見れない時の為の考慮して日程を組んだ方が良いと思います。

Fantastic cruise!!!
Friendly crew
Good music
Great Cocktails
Fun couple of hours. Good time was had by all and would love to do it again.

Great experience off of the coast of Waikiki. Our crew did a great job of keeping our drinks full the whole cruise. Beautiful views of the coastline and the sunset. Great price for the experience. Would definitely recommend!

A very fun time. A chance to get out in the water and a good price! Great crew that was extremely attentive to each guest. I’d do this again and recommend it!

Since I went to Hawaii in February, I decided to go whale watching, which is something you can only do during this time of year.

I read many reviews saying that people didn't see any whales, so I boarded the boat with a mindset of "Well, it would be nice to see a whale if we do." However, my skeptical expectations were wonderfully betrayed, and I was able to encounter a mother and calf whale multiple times!! Their synchronized swimming was truly moving, and I absolutely recommend it! Thank you for a truly wonderful experience!

It was a valuable tour. Thank you!

ちょうど2月にハワイに行ったので、この時期しか見ることの出来ないホエールウォッチングに行く事にしました。

クジラに会えなかったという口コミもたくさん読みましたので、「まぁクジラが見れたらいいか」みたいな気持ちで船に乗り込みましたが…。
私の半信半疑の期待は見事に裏切られ、何度もクジラの親子に遭遇する事ができました！！
並んで泳ぐ姿は心から感動しましたし、絶対オススメします！
本当に素晴らしい経験をありがとうございました！

価値のあったツアーでした。ありがとうございました！

The participants were multinational. The crew spoke English, but there was no language barrier. They did a great job of keeping the atmosphere lively. There was a wide variety of drinks, and the sunset over Waikiki from the sea was amazing. I would love to go again. However, when you drink, you will need to go to the restroom... Be sure to take care of that before boarding. It seems there is a restroom in the bottom of the boat in case of emergencies. Just let the crew know.

参加者は多国籍でしたね。クルーは英語ですが言葉の壁は有りません。上手に盛り上げてくれます。お酒の種類も豊富で海から見るワイキキの夕暮れもサイコー。また、乗りたいと思いました。
ただ、飲めばトイレに行きたくなるもの…。乗船前には必ず済ませて下さい。緊急時には船底にトイレが有るようです。クルーに声がけを。

I couldn't see the sunset, but I was able to see whales and a full moon. The hospitality of the staff was also wonderful, and it became a great memory.

夕陽は見れなかったけど、クジラや満月が見れました。スタッフの皆さんのホスピタリティも大変すばらしく、良い思い出になりました。

I signed up for my two sons who love sea creatures! We were able to see a whale right after we set off. I think we were very lucky to see it as a family. The kids were also thrilled, so I'm glad we participated!

海の生き物が大好きな息子二人のために申込みました！出発後すぐにくじらに会えました。
親子で見れたので、とてもラッキーだったと思います。子供たちも大喜びだったので参加してよかったです！

I was able to see a mother and baby whale together, with continuous spouting and jumping! The boat was also large, so it was comfortable to spend time on!

クジラが親子でいたのか、連続して潮吹きとジャンプが見れました！船も大きい為快適に過ごせよかったでふ！

I waited for the bus on the first day, but I was left behind. I left a voicemail, but I didn't get a response... I'm glad I was able to participate the next day, but I couldn't see the whales as well as I wanted from the photos. However, I felt good about the cruise! I thought it might be better if the duration was a little shorter.

バスに1日目待ってたのに、おいてかれてしまいました。
留守電いれたけど、連絡なく。。
翌日参加できたから良かったけど、、
クジラは写真見たいにはみれません。
クルーズするのは気分が良かったです！
時間もう少し短くても良いかなと思いました。

Captain & Kevin were a lot of fun. Great to get out on the water to watch the sunset. Spotted some whales too! Highly recommend this couples trip!

We participated as a family!
It was everyone's first time whale watching, and we had a wonderful experience encountering humpback whales jumping up close!
Thank you very much! ^_^

家族で参加しました！
みんな初めてのホエールウォッチングでしたが、間近でジャンプするザトウ鯨に出会う事ができ、素敵な経験になりました！
ありがとうございました^_^

This was such a great ride. The guys are awesome. Going to head down and book it for another night!
