All Reviews for Sunset Dinner Cruises

Everything was amazing. Thank you to entire crew and specially to our server Meg.

Thanks for the patience to share with us and now we are doing great love

I wish we picked a better day. Sunset was completely covered with the cloud so we couldn't really see the sunset at all. Food was average so does service there. they also pair you to sit with some other couple facing each other, which I thought it was pretty awkward and uncomfortable. I was surprised that they made us to tip the server separate to us, but was alright.

We really enjoyed our experience with Pacific Whale Foundation- we went on a snorkel cruise a couple of days prior to dinner cruise and had a blast. Solid staff with lots of Passion and knowledge about the oceans and specifically Maui.
The Dinner cruise was nice but we were all fairly disappointed in the food servings and 3 of our steaks were basically blood rare and we ordered them MR. it was too late to get them back on the grill. first course was a delicious good size at artichoke spinach dip. Or something close to that. It’s was tasty and plentiful but just a few pieces of bread for the whole thing and there was so much dip and no seconds on bread !? Kind of ridiculous, especially for the price of the dinner. The salad of mixed greens and some veggies was served with very tasty dressing … sure would have been nice to have some bread with that .. then came our entrees … so small ! A petit steak and one piece of chicken or a few prawns … small portions of protein then this outrageous amount of carrots. And a scoop of purple sweet pot mash which was tasty too. Drinks were okay- not great. Very sugary. … Mai tais , margaritas or wine were some of the choices.
Brownies for dessert were delish !
It was beautiful to cruise Lahaina area and eat on the water. Just wish the food was more plentiful - it’s really felt skimpy with all those carrots … just seemed like they were cutting corners. We ate when we got home. That should tell you something.
The staff wonderful , sweet, nice energy.

Way overpriced! The boat is really cramped. If you’re looking for something romantic then DON’t pick this. You will have to share your table with strangers, the drinks are watered down and the food was not good. Extremely bland!

The Alii Nui Sunset Cruise was incredible! My husband and I booked the cruise for our honeymoon and were very pleased with the whole experience. The boat launched from Maalaea Harbor around 5pm and began serving drinks once out of the harbor. We loved the signature drinks! Dinner was delicious and offered gluten free options including seared ahi tuna, prime rib, potatoes, and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. The ribs were advertised as GF, but had bbq sauce containing gluten on top. The crew was very helpful when I asked to check on gluten friendly options!

We could see amazing views of the sunset the whole time which was super important to us. We also loved that we had freedom to move around the boat as desired.

The whole crew was fantastic! Captain Jamey, Kalina, Farel, and Jackson went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. We were impressed that the crew not only served throughout the dinner, but also picked guests up from hotels, sailed the boat, bartended, and also made time to be friendly with the guests. The cruise also had a professional photographer, Anna, who took beautiful photos of the guests throughout the evening. During the dinner, she edited the photos and then we were able to purchase them as keepsakes.

This would make a great romantic evening for any honeymooners or couple! We highly recommend. :)

Our experience couldn’t be any better. Thank you!!

Ride was very relaxing. Food was good - we had steak and chicken. Drinks were good, too. Staff was very friendly.

We wanted to do something special for our 41st anniversary, and this sunset dinner cruise met all of our expectations! The boat was very comfortable, you had a choice of sitting inside or outside. We ate inside and once we finished eating we moved outside to watch the sunset. The sunset that night was absolutely amazing and was definitely the highlight, the sky looked like it was on fire, with pink and orange Hugh's. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make sure everyone was taking care of. Definitely include this on your next trip to Maui...I don't think you will be disappointed.

Our first trip to Maui and we chose our first activity to be this dinner cruise. From the moment we boarded the captain and crew were attentive and helpful. Everyone was smiling and enjoying themselves! We saw dolphins playing and the sunset was the most beautiful I’ve ever seen! We will definitely do this cruise again!

We greatly enjoyed the dinner cruise. The views were absolutely beautiful and the staff was extremely attentive, courteous, and friendly. We also enjoyed that there was live music. My only comment that could have been improved was that there was no food for children. While I appreciated that my daughter was free, I would rather have paid a small price for something simple for her, such as macaroni and cheese or a hot dog.

After a long search we found the ticket booth and looked for a boat. The boat arrives from the previous lunch cruise. After a quick cleanup we were allowed to board. We were then escorted up a metal ladder to the top deck. Remember you have to climb a ladder to get to the top deck. Once seated at very uncomfortable wooden seats with strangers you are given a free drink. Dinner arrives later. The dinner is good. A man sings and plays guitar as you enjoy your dinner. If you later need to use a restroom they are on the lower deck, are old disgusting marine toilets and not at all clean. The view of the Maui coastline is beautiful. I can't imagine what happens if it rains. No shelter. Not at all worth $ 200 plus dollars. Not sure how old the boat is but it sure looks it.

The meal was amazing. Not to take away from the staff and the views, however the meal was one of the best we had while on the island.

My mom and I had the best experience on the dinner cruise! The food wasn't the greatest but the drinks were amazing and the service alone made me want to come back again and again. The team on this boat was so attentive and constantly giving us drink after drink! Everyone was so funny, sweet, and kind and it was such a relaxing activity.

We had the most amazing experience! The crew was wonderful, the food was delicious and the whole evening was unforgettable! I highly recommend this experience!

Every things was perfect!! The staff,The food and entertainment was awesome!! Thank you all

This was a very nice dinner cruise! Took my mother and we really enjoyed although it was a cloudy evening! Food was very good! Salad was just delicious! We even got to do some sailing which was a first for both of us! Wait staff did a great job! Would highly recommend!!

My husband and I had a fantastic time on the sunset dinner cruise!

Honestly, we were happy to be on the ocean and enjoy the beautiful sunset. We were pleasantly surprised with the dinner, drinks, and excellent service. The crew was friendly, helpful, and just fantastic—especially the captain who went over and beyond finding whales for us to see. The singer/guitar player was outstanding. We enjoyed dancing on the bough of the boat.

Thank you for helping to make our first trip to Maui more memorable!

Had amazing time. Went APIRL 2nd 2021. The music was great. Captain was awesome. He stop the boat numinous time so we can see the whales. Which was awesome concerning it was at the end of whale season. The food was fantastic! Definitely would recommend.

The Maui Princess cruise was exceptional- the food was fantastic and captain, service and performer were terrific. We were especially surprised that the food was of great quality and served just right. We had the prime rib and the Mahi Mahi. Both were perfect! The captain stopped for some whale sittings. Would highly recommend supported this cruise as they were off for 11 months and now only go out Wednesday’s- this was their forth sailing since reopening. Highly recommend this for any occasion!

Very knowledgeable staff and super friendly. Good adherance to the COVID protocols. Food was delicious and better than we expected. The only bummer was we were sitting on the wrong side of the ship to watch the sunset:(

We had a truly beautiful time during this crazy pandemic. Social distancing was done well. Dinner was yummy!

Wife and I greatly enjoyed the trip together. The captain was nice enough to cruise around to see some whales that were all around the boat. Great food, great drinks and the bar tenders were fantastic.

The food, service and entertainment was all wonderful! Would definitely do it again.

The crew was really awesome, the food was delicious and much more appealing than any Luau dinner that I have attended. I like the fact that cocktails and hors d’oeuvres were served before dinner and the ceremony. I enjoyed the ambience of sailing on the ocean, during the ceremony. The captain of the vessel was a delight. I highly recommend this adventure.

Perfect amount of time. Food was delicious and staff was great. Loved the energy and music while cruising the coastline. We were there for 10 days with a large group so it was a perfect “getaway” one evening for me and my husband. Would definitely recommend this!

Beautiful Evening! Great service and entertainment.

Aloha!!! Had an awesome time. Food was good as well as drinks. Loved the entertainment. I wore a dress with heels. I didn’t think that one through. My advice to the ladies...wear something flat footed and you will feel more sure footed on the boat. Would recommend this experience for everyone. There were all ages in the cruise including kiddos. Overall great experience for price.

The key to this excursian are the husband and wife do everything team. The only legitimate south Pacific experience on Maui. Thanks to the great staff. Everything else on the island felt fake-nice.

It was a great experience, everything was great, the food the dance the sunrise also I meet great people the dance perform was amazing and also thank you to show as the best of the Maui. Definitely recommended
