Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Perfect date night excursion!

Reviewed by: Tanya from Canada

To say the Star of Honolulu is a fabulous ship is an understatement!
We were both so impressed the minute we walked up beside her! We really enjoyed everything about our evening! The dancers were so sweet as they welcomed us onboard, our window seats were great, the food was really good, and such a fun atmosphere! Our only complaint was their decision to serve crab legs as part of our meal plan. It was delicious, but just a messy food item to pair with our nice dress clothes & date night. And the views of coastline & Waikiki Beach were phenomenal! I had booked the Friday night cruise, hoping to view the Friday night fireworks off the beach ... but the weather changed those plans on us, which was understandable, we still really enjoyed! This was our first time experiencing a sunset dinner cruise ... and we both said we can't wait to go again on the Star of Honolulu!

Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

Great experience and must do!

Reviewed by: Jose and Claudia.

We celebrated the night before our marriage on this event. We were a large group of 27. They accommodated us and sat us all together. The entertainment and the food were excellent. The servers kept everything flowing and joyful. Very organized and fun. I really enjoyed the dancers and singers. They performed in front of us and had them all over so everyone could enjoy them. The only bummer was that I specifically chose to go on the Friday sunset cruise for the firework show. However, it didn’t happen due to the winds. I was very sad. Other than that, I thought it was a fabulous experience.

Amazing crew and experience

Overall great experience with a good meal, friendly crew, and add-ons to capture the adventure.

I would do it again. But I'd some time of approved boat shoe or water shoe. Not a fan of barefoot in public areas.

Prince Kuhio Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Freshly Prepared Dinner

Worth every penny!

Reviewed by: Robert Nunmaker

Staff is friendly and competent. Boat is just the right size. Food is home and freshly cooked. Amount of time on the boat is just right.
My only suggestion is for the crew to wear name tags.

This was a lovely experience. The jazz singer was incredibly fun and talented. The food was excellent. The servers (Collin and Rob) were incredibly kind and attentive. The sunset was stunning. Finally, the Polynesian show was lovely and a great way to end the night. I would come again.

コスパ最高

Reviewed by: ぴーぴん

サンセットを逃さないちょうど良い時間、完璧なタイミングで運ばれてくるお料理、楽しいショータイム、このお値段で盛りだくさんの納得の内容でした。
特にカニが美味しかったですし、全体の量も十分でした。
デッキからはワイキキの夕景や空港から飛び立つ飛行機が見えてとても綺麗です。
ただ、満席だった場合は隣の人と肩や肘がぶつかるくらいの距離感で仕切りのアクリル板などは無いので、そういうのが気になる方はご注意を。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Great experience!!!

Reviewed by: Phil

At the dockside check-in they were very helpful. I just showed my confirmation email and she gave us out boarding passes. The dockside hula show was good. They had 2 musicians playing and 3 dancers, it wasn't Cirque Du Soleil but if thats what your expecting go to Las Vegas!!

I loved the meal. The purple bread (made with Ube) was good, it tasted like the Kings Hawaiian Rolls! The steaks are cooked medium rare, which I enjoy but was too under cooked for my wife. Even since she didnt eat her steak she still was full with the Crab and Chicken. The ice cream was delicious. The Mai Tai's were on point.

Our server was perfect. Very attentive to our needs, conversational without being annoying. Extremely gracious and appreciative.

A great and smoothly run experience!

Reviewed by: Stu

This sunset dinner cruise was a truely amazing experience for myself and my partner.
The three course dinner was ok, the appetiser and dessert were nothing special, but the main meal was incredible!!! We both couldn’t get enough of the crab!
The dancers were all very talented and was great entertainment onboard.
The singer and his niece also provided great entertainment in between meals.
The fireworks towards the end was also an amazing experience I will not soon forget.
One thing that stopped this from being a 5-star experience was that we were sat opposite a random couple on the same table as us, making this ‘date night’ a lot more awkward than we had expected.

Prince Kuhio Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Freshly Prepared Dinner

A great time & perfect for a romantic dinner

Reviewed by: Will S.

We didn't plan to book a cruise until lunch of the very evening we intended to do a dinner cruise. The first site I found was booked, and then I found Prince Kuhio Tours. As fate would have it, this was very good happy accident. We couldn't have asked for a better dinner cruise.

The crew greeted us and checked us in, including the captain welcoming us onto the boat.

All we needed to bring was ourselves, maybe a jacket for the crosswinds, and our favorite adult beverage(s). (And motion sickness medicine, if you need it.)

The rest of the crew would soon take care of us while we enjoyed awesome views of the sunset going over the ocean, and the various colors it was putting out on the water and on the downtown scene of Waikiki. The buildings were glittering with all kinds of sunset colors.

The cruise path is a bit high-traffic with other boats around us, but it was still beautiful.

The food was delicious. We had a few options to choose from to accommodate vegetarians and meat eaters. We started with a nice salad with a few options for dressing. We chose the fresh catch. It was served with a creamy coconut white sauce over rice and with veggies. Dessert was served as well, and it was a yummy cheesecake.

Once the boat makes it to the end of Waikiki, it turns around and very slowly goes back to the slip where we started.

The crew was all very friendly and helpful. They even did a good job of entertaining us a bit as well. (That's not something that you'd expect with this kind of dinner cruise.)

When you go, I recommend getting there early so you can get the spot you want. I'd suggest going to the second deck, and sit on the port side. You'll have a great view of the sun going down on the way out, and a great view of the city lit up in the dark on the way back. You won't worry about getting your favorite photos.

  • The view on the way out from the marina

  • A great look at Waikiki lit up on the way back

  • The view on our way out before dinner
