Wonderful time

Reviewed by: Linda

Our servers at the event made a huge difference. Although busy, they were attentive to the guests.

Table setting was elegant. Flowers decorating the meals were beautiful. Didn’t enjoy the drinks as much. Lava flow did not taste right.

Loved the lobster and steak. Seating was great.
Fireworks were beautiful

Worth it.

Reviewed by: Jordan

The dinner cruise is worth it. We had the crab legs, steak, and bbq chicken. The crab legs were a little small, but everything else was very tasty. I would recommend this activity and may do it again if I go back to Oahu. The entertainment was also great and enjoyable to watch. The staff on board was also friendly and attentive.

花火鑑賞セーリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 <金曜日限定/アウトリガー・リーフ発>

Enjoy the night view and fireworks of Waikiki with a glass of wine! ワイキキの夜景と花火をワイン片手に!

Reviewed by: vanilla

This is my third time participating. The fireworks themselves are short, so I think it's better to approach it with the mindset that you can see the fireworks during the night cruising. They anchor the boat so that you can see the fireworks from any seat. The staff is always friendly and enjoyable. The view of the fireworks from the sea along with the night scenery of Waikiki... I think it's a great value.

今回3回目の参加です。花火そのものは短いのであくまでナイトクルージングに花火が見られる、という気持ちでいた方良いと思います。どこの席に座っても花火が見えるように停泊してくれます。スタッフもいつも楽しく感じよく。海から眺める花火とワイキキの夜景・・・ お値打ちだと思います。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

It was just okay.

Reviewed by: Laura

It was just okay. Boarding went quickly and was fairly organized. You weren't too crowded in the dining room, however it was HOT. They need fans. We were sitting on the sunset side on the outside and the sun was in my face the entire meal. Between the sun, heat and movement of the boat I was miserable. I don't normally get seasick, but combined with the extreme heat and lack of breeze I felt like crap. I couldn't wait to get up top where there was a breeze.
The buffet had what was advertised, but it was a minimal selection. In my opinion it left something to be desired, I didn't even eat one plate. The desserts were okay, the fruit was fresh. The wait staff was friendly and efficient.
We did have a spectacular sunset and it is amazing to see from the ship. We missed most of the entertainment because I needed to be up where there was a breeze but people seemed to be enjoying themselves. We went on Friday to see the fireworks. There were so many people topside that we couldn't stand on the side of the ship you needed to be on to watch them. (You want to be on the right side.) We wound up going back to our seats (2nd level) and had a perfect view of the end of the fireworks display. Overall I couldn't wait for the evening to end so I could get off the ship and get into the air conditioning. Personally I would not go again, but as I said a lot of people did seem to be enjoying themselves. I should mention, I'm not overweight, so that is not why I was so hot, they really need fans in those lower areas. Had I not been so miserable because of the heat I may have had a better experience.

花火鑑賞 ナイトセーリング  2種類の船から選べる!ロマンチックな夜のクルーズ ドリンク購入可<金曜日限定/アラワイボートハーバー発>

Beyond expectations cruising 期待以上のクルージング

Reviewed by: norimaki

We were enjoying a lively cruise with the captain's MC and the people around us, but as the sun began to set, the atmosphere turned quietly romantic.

As the sun sank lower, we thought we saw a large airship rising in the east, but it turned out to be a giant full moon. At that moment, a couple appeared to propose with a ring, and the excitement on the ship reached a peak.

In the end, the evening was capped off with a small fireworks display, reminiscent of bidding farewell to summer.

船長のMCのもと周りの人達とワイワイ言いながらクルージングを楽しんでいましたが、やがて日が暮れてくるとしんみりロマンチックな雰囲気に。

さらに、日が沈んでいくにつれ、東に大きな飛行船が上がってきた?と思ったら、それは巨大な満月でした。
そこで、指輪を差し出して結婚を申し込みするカップルも現れ、船内は大盛り上り。

最後は、ゆく夏を惜しむがごとき小さめの花火で締め括られました。

  • ワイキキから上がって来た月はダイアモンドヘッドの上を登っていきます

  • 港を出てから、船は夕日に向かい、その後、ダイアモンドヘッド(月)に向かってダイナミックなクルージングをしたりと景色は絶えず変化します。

  • 実はこの看板を見つけるのに苦労した。グーグルマップの住所から探すと全く違うところになってしまった。

Waikiki Sunset Dinner & Fireworks Sail with Cocktails - Spirit of Aloha Cruises

Sunset + City lights + Fireworks

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii

LOVED this catamaran! I had been on this same catamaran previously for their Turtle Canyon snorkel cruise so I knew I would like the boat. I liked that the boat check-in was here in Waikiki at the Hilton Village making it super convenient. This saves some transit time from going to some of the farther harbors (i.e. Kewalo Basin Harbor, Honolulu Harbor, etc.). We spent the best day just hanging out at the beach then just walked over to the Port Hilton kiosk to check-in.

I also liked the later departure time than most other sunset cruises so we could have a full beach day and still have time to hop on the catamaran. The dinner was a smaller portion prepackaged & more like appetizers than a full-on dinner. The drinks were tasty & buying more beyond the 2 included was $2/each - not a bad bargain. Since we were on the Hilton's pier, we were super close to the fireworks and were coming into the Port Hilton just as the fireworks were going off.

If you get cold easily, I would recommend packing a windbreaker or light sweater. It doesn't get cold here but it does get VERY BREEZY on the water at night once the sun goes down. I had a super light windbreaker which I didn't actually have to even use until about 1.5 hours into the cruise.

Overall, great cruise! So much fun!

  • Gorgeous view from the water!

The staff's consideration, hospitality, and the cruise itself were excellent! スタッフさんの配慮、おもてなし、クルーズそのもの、最高!

Reviewed by: ペンギン

Typically, the seats of other people are right next to you, and since everyone is not wearing masks, if you are concerned about COVID, the restrictions in Japan are completely different, so at the very least, wearing a mask is necessary.
I attended alone, but considering my seating, I was allowed to sit in a special reserve seat and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
The colors of the sunset were indescribable, a pink hue that is rarely seen in Japan, and it dyed the sea that color as well.
Since we set sail while it was still bright, the view of the buildings in Waikiki and the mountains behind them from the ocean was fantastic, and especially the night view after it got dark was amazing.
The cruise lasts for two hours until the fireworks start, so you can really enjoy it.

通常であれば他の人の席はすぐ横で、皆さん、マスク等もしていないので、コロナを気にされるなら、日本での制限状況とは全く違うので、最低限マスクは必要です。
一人での参加だったのですが、席を考えていただき、特別の予備席に座らせていただき満喫できました。
夕焼けの色はなんとも言えない日本ではなかなか見れないピンク色で海までそのピ色に染まってました。
明るいうちから出港するので、沖から眺めるワイキキの建物と後ろの山々の景色は最高で、とりわけ暗くなってからの夜景も最高です。
クルーズの時間が花火が上がるまでの2時間あるので、かなり満喫できます。

Very touristy and packed. Must do ONE time experience

Reviewed by: Guam Companions

Go on a Friday to catch the Friday night fireworks sponsored by Hilton Hawaiian Village. Usually after dinner is done, and while the performers entertain, guests usually hangout by the side rail outside the dining area, or at the top deck to get good seating/viewing spots until the fireworks. Otherwise, food was mediocre good (we had the crab, steak, and mashed potatoes deal) and complimentary Mai Tai was too sweet with little to no alcohol. Dessert was brought out while guests were in the deck plates. It was between the boat cruise or a luau....we should've tried the luau.

Getting to the boarding area takes some time, and even though drinks are included once you're on board, you can't really enjoy them on the deck. There wasn't much to see on the way to the fireworks location, and it would have been nice if there was a bit more fun along the way.

船乗り場までまず時間がかかり乗ってからのみものつきといえど甲板らへんにいるととりにはいけない。花火の場所までは何もなくもう少し楽しさがあるとよかった。
