This cruise was quite a disappointment. Right off the bat, it was apparent that it was way overbooked. They did not have seats for probably 50-60 people. Secondly, the "appetizers" were subpar (although there was plenty of water and soda all the way to the end of the cruise). Thirdly, there was nothing to do for about 2.5 hours of the cruise. The firework show (which was amazing when it was finally going) was only about 20 minutes. So from 7pm-10pm, there was nothing to do but just talk or look around at the sights. In the beginning it was okay, because there was the sunset and you're fresh and excited. But after the fireworks were over, we didn't make it back to shore until after 10pm. I don't know what was going on, but one of the crew members said something about the docks being blocked by other boats. That's fine, I know they don't have control over that, but we almost made it back to the dock and we turned back out to the water with no explanation. Furthermore, what made this part awful, was the engine of the boat was working so hard to reverse and then move forward, and all the other movements it needed to get back to shore, that there was TONS of smoke coming onto the boat right where tons of people were. It was awful. It got all in our faces, smelled horrible and just made us feel bad. My 11 year old nephew was coughing the rest of the night because of it. The crew didn't seem apologetic nor did they help explain what happened. Also, the crew went around asking people if they needed anything, but only asked us once the whole time, not sure if that's standard. The whole thing could have been an hour shorter and we probably would've been happy. At the end when it's dark and late, you just want to go home.

I had this tour in the evening after visiting Molokini Island in the morning, and I was surprised to find out it was the same boat! Our Japanese female guide, Takako, was also surprised! We were able to have a lot of fun conversations and spent a wonderful time together! The dinner buffet was delicious too! I might definitely come back!
朝からモロキニ島で夕方からこのツアーでしたが、行ってビックリ!同じ船でした(笑)
日本人女性ガイドのタカコさんもビックリ!

The dinner cruise was really fun and relaxing. As soon as you get on you have drinks available and the staff are really nice. The food selection was okay, nothing too spectacular. The drinks were okay as well. We got a Mai tai when we left the port and we also were given 2 more drinks throughout the cruise. It was a beautiful cruise and the sunset was gorgeous.

Went on the cruise and wouldn't you know it, the day clouded over Kate afternoon so there was no sunset that might. The food was great and the drinks were great. It was a calm night so eating buffet style wasn't a huge problem. Would be nice to have a table to sit and eat. Saw lots of whales

We are a family of 5 adults and this was our first sunset dinner cruise and it exceeded all our expectations. Everything about the event was exceptional starting by the pickup at our hotel ,the check-in process,the photos,the reserved seating,the drinks,the food and the food servers. We were entertained by the singer/guitar player throughout which was very pleasant. The weather was perfect and we were thrilled when a humpback whale and her baby were breeching within our view. We are looking forward to a whale watching cruise on the Maui Princess in a few days as part of the special package deal. We highly recommend the Maui Princess.

The captain and crew were absolutely wonderful. Peak whale season and my husband an I were in Maui celebrating our 25th anniversary. Not only was the dinner delicious and the views spectacular but we also were able to watch the whales. Didn't have to pay a separate fee for the spectacular encounters of the whales. This was absolutely worth every bit of the money we paid and will do it again WHEN we return to Kaalapani.

The view was beautiful, the food was good, and the crew was very friendly. However, the boat and experience was not as advertised. The boat was dirty and old, which put a dampener on the atmosphere. From the description, it sounds like you're going on a "high class" cruise in Maui. Instead, you're sitting on plastic outdoor chairs with sticky vinyl tablecloths. We didn't feel it was worth the cost. We did get beautiful sunset photos though.

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
