Maui
The experience was fun. The crew was very nice. The gear provided needs a serious update. Old a little gross and very poor quality. I would absoloutly recommend the experience to anyone coming but I would deffinitly recommend to aqua adventures to update the snorkel gear.
Excellent ferry to Lanai from Lahaina. The crew were super knowledgeable about passengers’ safety and were very friendly. We decided to shorten our visit in Lanai bec of the rain and they were able to accommodate us.
We really enjoyed the Feast At Lele luau. It has been quite some time since we've been to watch a luau and were in the mood to seeing the beautiful dances of Polynesia. The setting is beautiful by the water. The hosts & hostesses were all friendly & helpfully answered our question. This was the first luau that I've been to where each course was served to us rather than a large buffet. We liked this style because the servers could explain what was in each dish and we liked that each course corresponded with the island whose dance was being shown. The extra thing that we appreciated was there ability to accommodate my partners coconut allergy which we could be challenging when serving food from the islands, but they expertly were able to pivot for him in creative ways that still allowed him to enjoy most of what they chefs prepared for everyone else & he felt satisfied by the culinary experience. So much kudos to the kitchen staff.
The show itself was beautiful to watch. We enjoyed the band that played in the beginning and in between each dance routine. The host was helped guide & give a little of info on each of the dances. The dancers were great as well. I definitely would recommend the Feast at Lele if you want the luau experience.
Nice Cruise But Food Was Lacking. We were at a table with another couple whom also didn't enjoy the meal. The prime rib was well done which isn't how prime rib is supposed to be made and the chicken was tough and both meals had to put some Work in to cut the meat. The other couple had the same and felt the same. For the price the food should definitely be better. Other than the food the cruise and entertainment were nice.
This was perfect for a half day trip to several snorkeling destinations. The crew was a lot of fun and personable and had great food prepped for us. Very easy going and the underwater wildlife was great! I highly recommend this tour group.
A great day and time - learned about so much history and how special the volcano is to the people of Maui - the driver was very good and made the trip very enjoyable- I highly recommend this trip
Any luau is a fun time to learn the historical culture of Hawaii. My wife and I's experience is that we enjoyed the show, we did feel there was too much downtime between dances but maybe due to the rain. Buffet lines are well organized, your typical buffet quality food themed luau, and VIP amenities are not bad. Getting in and having priority is definitely very nice, front row seats is also nice, but you can also do without. It was enjoyable night.
Everything about this experience was amazing! We plan to do it each return visit.
Absolutely loved it! The crew was super helpful with showing us how to snorkel, and giving us tips to make snorkeling easier so we’re not working as hard. This was my family and I’s first time snorkeling and it’s an experience we’ll remember forever! Thank you to the crew for giving us an amazing experience! From the helpful classes and underwater picture availability, to the helpful crew looking out for us, I’d definitely do this again!
Thank you for choosing the Four Winds! It sounds like you had a great time.
We hope to see you on board again!
Aloha,

The Feast at Lele Lahaina was quite the "luxurious Luau" experience. At the Feast at Lele, you and your date and/or group are sat at your own table, which is on the beach, right next to the water. You get five different courses, all you can eat servings, and unlimited drinks. This Luau may not be the most "traditional" or stereotypical Luau and there may not be as much focus on the actual dancing/firedancing, however, if you want a more romantic or surreal experience, this is the Luau company to go with. The Luau starts around 6pm while the sun is still up and bright. As the dinner and show progress, you get to see the sun slowly set behind you, while you dine on the beach, and take in the moment... Food was excellent and the drinks were even better. I had the best "Lava Flow" drink i've ever had here. 100% recommend this for a dinner date.
An awesome evening for me and my gal pal! Fun times.
The boat shuttle was good. The only thing I have frustrating to me is that there was no way to get around the island unless you booked a car two days in advance. And I booked to come back at 5:30 I had to go all the way back to the kiosk lady and tell them we want to go on the early shuttle back That’s after I was in line I wish there was clear instructions or somebody would announce that while sitting there waiting for the shuttle and standing in line
Sunset cruise was amazing. Friendly staff and service was great. The sunset has a beautiful scenery with great seating arrangements you can really see a lot. The steak tasted great as well.
The food is DELICIOUS, they have great choices. The music was beautiful and the views were so serene!
Beautiful! Waterfalls, incredible coastline views, bamboo forests, complimentary banana bread, local food stands, and much more! But the best was our guide Kea. Impressive knowledge of all the attractions combined with his passionate understanding of Hawaiian history and culture; he was a great guide! We came away with so much more than we had planned on!
Hi Pete, thank you so much fo your fantastic review! We appreciate you taking the time to share a few words about your experience with us! We love Kea too! Connecting our guests to the land and people of Hawai'i is our main goal. The enrichment is paramount to the beauty that surrounds us! Much love and hugs!
Staff very friendly and helpful. Return to Maui in the afternoon was rough, but we were advised to move out of the stern if we didn't want to get wet, and stay seated for the ride. Great fun!
Next to the beach and you get to see the sun setting. Beautiful view. Most of the dishes were so yummy and it's s great tasting experience. Cocktails were so yummy. The lava flow is such a creamy drink like yogurt. Highly recommend. Wish there was more fire performance.
Overall the sunset cruise was a good experience. Really awesome staff. Open bar was pretty fun and they always try to keep your drink full. Food was average and was still a little hungry after. Breath taking sunset though. It was also a sand dock so we had to walk through the water to get on the boat. That was not advertised. Wading in water up to knees. Older folks might struggle. My client was also in slacks which was not ideal if we knew that going in but I as ok.
Walking through the water wasn’t bad if you knew that it was coming It would have been great to be advised to dress in shorts and flip-flops.
It felt like you were witnessing the cultures and it fit the whole hawaiian experience.
One of the best, if not, the best event we attended in Maui. Service was great, entertainment was the notch, food was good, and the drinks kept coming. Highly recommended!
So wonderfully beautiful & amazing. What a great crew they have aboard. Courtney, thank you for the amazing drinks you rock!! I’ll see you next time. Highly recommend for couples ❤️❤️
Great experience. Food was great, views fantastic, staff awesome. It wad a perfect evening.
This was the best snorkel trip we have ever done! The crew was extremely kind and helpful. The boat was small with about 30 people on board (versus boats with 100+), which made snorkeling and the boat ride very nice as we all had our own space. Molokini was amazing. I have never seen such great coral and fish. The visibility was like seeing in HD. At Turtle Town, the one crew member (I can't remember his name, I'm sorry!) did an amazing reef tour where he pointed out different fish, gave lots of facts, and helped us try to swim under the arches. He even pointed out a white tip reef shark! And of course, we saw some turtles. Mollie, the photographer, got lots of amazing pictures of us diving and gave us an amazing deal. She even gave us lots of helpful tips for our road to Hana experience. The food was great and I truly can not stress how amazing the crew was in making this experience one of the most memorable. I would do this again!
On the ride to the summit, we stopped for everyone to be fitted with bicycles and gear. I signed up for a tour. The sunrise at the summit was phenomenal. The ride down however was a bit uncomfortable because I was the only one on the bus. We were mainly watching the bikers, making sure they got down the mountain safely. We stopped in two towns where Rory let me get off and walk around, but it wasnt much of a tour.....it was a bus ride to the sunrise and back. It's not what I paid for but I did get to see the sunrise. Also, my friend was suppose to go but got sick as we left the motel. Eddie was the driver to the summit and had to stop for her. Luckily we hadnt gone far so he returned her to the motel and I did the 'tour' on my own. Rory was the driver coming down and he was great doing what he was supposed to do. I tried to get a refund for my friend to no avail. They said she must have a dr note. Since she wasnt sick enough to go to the dr, she lost her money. It was a beautiful sunrise but all in all I was disappointing in the day. Make sure if you want a tour, you aren't going with bikers. The description did not make that clear.
The food was great l and the service as good as most restauratns. The captain was very friendly and was good to stop the boat and let us watch the nearby whales. The live music was good. Ive heard better but Ive also heard worse. It all added up to a very enjoyable evening.
My family and I went to Lanai for a day trip. The beach was maybe a 10 minute walk from the harbor. Make sure to pack a cooler with drinks and snacks. The general store at the harbor has limited things. The Four Seasons is close by but the restaurant isn’t open to public like we thought. There are cabanas on the beach, but they are only reserved for hotel guests. If you have small children there is a lagoon on the opposite side of the beach that is calmer and cooler for children to play!! The boat ride was great. It was a little choppy coming back, but overall a great experience!!
We really enjoyed the snorkeling tour. The staff were locals which we appreciated. They were charming, funny and accommodating. The ride was smooth and snorkeling equipment worked great. Highly recommend if you haven't been before and a great beginning snorkeling spot
45 minute ferry ride to Lanai. We spent the day visiting the cat sanctuary - contacted the shuttle service the day prior. Ferries were on time and smooth
The boat crew were friendly and very knowledgeable about the whales. The whole family had a good time. It was beautiful watching the ocean and getting a glimpse of the whales.
The sunset cruise was very relaxing and had a big thick rainbow that stuck around until the sun set. The food wasn’t amazing, but it was good. We only got 2 drinks included, NOT 3 as posted.
The captain did find whales for us though! So a free whale watching was included!
A really enjoyable time. The DJ was hilarious!
