An Overall Great Time!

Reviewed by: Walonda, 2022/08/14

The captain and co-captain made it a fun experience. I enjoyed the punch that was provided. This sail boat tour was an overall great time, and I would certainly go again.

A more chill booze cruise

Reviewed by: Aurora, 2022/04/23

This was exactly what we were looking for. We were hesitant to do something like this in fear of being surrounded by young drunk 20 year olds but the mood was relaxing and enjoyable. Crew and music reflected this vibe as well. Definitely recommend.

The perfect end to our Waikiki stay

Reviewed by: Patti, 2019/01/31

My little family of 3 took a much-needed, very rare vacation for six days on Oahu, and on the final day scheduled an afternoon sailing cruise. Unfortunately our 22yo daughter was ill and unable to go along with the two of us on the Catamaran, and we were unable to get a refund for her ticket. However, I did not regret a penny we spent on the ride. The captain and crew were entertaining, and kept the beverages flowing along with the banter. They were non-intrusive when we just wanted to enjoy the view and ride, and wonderfully instructive when there were sights to see and safety precautions to take. We loved every minute, and wanted it to last much longer than it did, even though we are not boat-out-on-open-water people at all. Thank you for a wonderful end to our vacation!

Not as advertised

Reviewed by: Deb, 2019/01/02

Not a wildlife outing as advertised. Mostly just a cruise out and back. Some nice views of diamond head but not what I had thought by the ad.

Mellow trip

Reviewed by: Oregonian, 2017/09/28

Took 5 members of family from 10-74 years old living in Hawaii, Australia and Oregon. Everyone had a nice time. We saw some flying fish, great views of Diamond Head and Waikiki, the staff was easy going and fun. We all wished the boat was closer to the water like some sailboats and under full sail and not motoring. All in all a good value.

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Cyndi Edwards, 2017/09/09

Our family took this cruise and enjoyed it immensely. The crew was very personable and friendly. The ride was just long enough - 90 mins was perfect. Only disappointing thing was they took pics of each group when we boarded but we couldn't find the person when we returned. No big thing tho we had many chances to take photos during the cruise. This is a great cruise and very well worthy the price.

Reviewed by: Vincent , 2017/06/19

I'm 65, 2 heart attacks on my resume and was never much of an adventurer. Your Catamaran ride woke me to what I've been missing. Thank you !!! Will I do it again? Absolutely!!! As a matter of fact, your ride out to the open sea prompted me to schedule to some parasailing Tuesday. I hope that answers your "review" Thanks again. . .

Sailing tour

Reviewed by: Jenny, 2017/03/01

This sail was great and I like it . Just the location was difculty to find for me. I walked around for while and asked a few of people, finally I found boarding place it is the time for boarding already.
Otherwise everything is very good, the stuff is nice and professional, the weather is good and the sailing tour is very enjoyable.

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Floyd Reichert, 2016/07/10

Fantastic is the word that best describes our experience. The crew was very accommodating and the cruise gave us a good overview of Waikiki, Diamond Head and surrounding area. With the limited number of participants we did not get lost in a crowd as you would on the larger cruise ships and it cost much less. Definitely worth the money. This one gets a FIVE STAR.

Wonderful, fun cruise!

Reviewed by: Danielle, 2016/05/30

The guys running the catamaran were friendly and fun, and the cruise itself was beautiful and relaxing (once you get used to the movement of the boat). Was very easy to chat with other people and make friends on the boat. If I ever get back to Waikiki, I'll absolutely be on the Holokai again! Thanks for a fun time!

Meh

Reviewed by: CG , 2016/03/26

We travel a lot and love an afternoon sail. Wednesday's 3pm sail featured mellow 70s music (CCR, Eagles, and that classic plane crash ditty Fire and Rain, along with some 50s tunes). Really? Music that's 40 - 58 years old?

The captains seemed barely engaged in their jobs, chatting with each other about filing their taxes for much of the 90 minute sail.

Though the trades weren't blowing, no effort was made to find enough wind to make it feel like a sail, nor did our crew display any interest in pointing out local landmarks, Hawaiian history and lore, or the flora and fauna.

There were good at hustling the $2 waters and sodas and $10 refillable drinks and reminding us to tip.

Snooze.
