I received polite service. 丁寧な対応をしてもらいました。

Reviewed by: まっちゃ

I used the 5-star course, but I made a mistake with the meeting time and ended up arriving just in time for departure, so I couldn't participate in the welcome event. However, the staff were very polite and accommodating without showing any displeasure. Even though it was past the time, I was able to take a commemorative photo with the captain.

Before the meal, we received three drink vouchers for each of us. On the table, there was a menu for the course, the sunset time (which varies by month), and the schedule for live performances. During the meal, we could step away for a moment to watch the sunset from the exclusive 5-star deck. Therefore, I recommend checking the sunset time first. The portion sizes were just right and the food was very delicious.

The waiter was attentive and frequently checked in with us. The sunset was beautiful, and I was very satisfied.

5スターコースを利用しましたが、
集合時間を間違えて出港ギリギリの時間になってしまい、ウェルカムイベント等には参加できませんでした。
でもスタッフの方々は嫌な顔せずに丁寧に対応していただきました。船長との記念写真も時間を過ぎていましたが特別に撮影してもらえました。
料理の前にドリンク券を3枚×2人分もらいました。テーブルにはコースメニューや日没の時間(月毎に時間が違います)、生演奏のスケジュールが載ったものが置いてます。料理の途中で一旦離席して5スター専用デッキで日没を見ることもできます。なので、1番最初に日没の時間を確認することをお勧めします。料理の量は適量でとても美味しかったです。
ウェイターさんがこまめに気をつかって話しかけてくださいました。
夕日も綺麗でとても満足です。

Star of Honolulu Dinner Cruise - Luxury Top Deck Sunset Dining Experience & Live Entertainment

The Best Way to Experience Oahu Sunset

Reviewed by: Greg H

This is truly a 5-star luxury experience and the best Oahu sunset dinner cruise. From start to finish you are treated like royalty by friendly and helpful staff. We had the package that includes transportation to and from Waikiki and 4 drinks each (1 Captain's Bellini drink and 3 premium drink tickets). When you arrive you are greeted by dancers, the crew, and captains. You have an opportunity to meet the captains and get amazing photos before setting off on the cruise. The boat was very accessible with elevators to each of the decks. The 5-star luxury SuperNova deck is beautiful and spacious. You are treated to a 7-course dinner and live jazz trio band. At any point you are free to roam the private top deck area for incredible photos of Oahu, Waikiki, Diamond Head, ocean, and sunset. I would advise anyone who signs up for the 5-star luxury deck to wear the appropriate attire (business to formal). I don't think you would be allowed boarding with swimsuits or t-shirts. Dress pants, sneakers and collared shirts should be fine for men, but be aware some guests will dress very formal and be celebrating anniversaries, birthdays, weddings, etc. We highly recommend the 5-star luxury dinner experience as it was one of our favorite parts of our Hawaii trip.

the crew was friendly and we easily found our way to the table. The ship was clean while a bit snug easy to move around. We really thought the entertainment was well done and varied with polynesian dancers and jazz musicians. Our dinner was well presented and prepared.

It was an elegant and special time spent on the ship. 船上で過ごす優雅で特別な時間でした

Reviewed by: ピピやま

I participated in a 5-star plan for my honeymoon. There was a shuttle service to the hotel where we received a sticker (to be placed on the chest as instructed) and three drink vouchers per person. Excitedly, we quickly arrived at the port where the ship was docked.

As we headed towards the entrance of the ship, there was a line of participants, but it seemed that the staff checked the stickers on our chests and prioritized the 5-star guests for boarding. We were guided to the top deck, the 4th floor, where the captain and staff welcomed us. We were greeted with a welcome drink and a one-spoon meal on the deck. There was also an opportunity to take photos with the captain, which could be purchased for $27 (it seemed like most people were buying it).

When we were shown to our table inside the ship, there was a Japanese couple sitting on both sides who were also on their honeymoon in Hawaii. We used our drink vouchers and started with a toast of beer.

After that, the dishes were served one by one, and each was delicious. The staff was attentive to our drink orders and the pace of our meal, providing friendly and pleasant service. Throughout the evening, there was live jazz music played on the piano and saxophone, creating a special and wonderful atmosphere. We also had the chance to go back out on deck to enjoy the sunset and take photos.

At the end, there was a gift of a single rose for the women. From start to finish, we experienced VIP treatment and spent a graceful and lovely time. This is truly a recommended experience for a night in Hawaii.

ハネムーンで5スターのプランに参加しました。
泊まっているホテルに送迎があり、そこで参加の証であるシール(胸あたりに貼るよう指示)やドリンク券1人3枚ずつが渡されます。ワクワクしながらあっという間に船が停まっている港に到着。
船の入口へ向かうと、参加者の列ができていましたが、胸に貼ったシールを確認したのか5スターの方のみスタッフの方が優先的に船の中へ案内してくれました。
5スターは最上階の4階に案内され、船長やスタッフの方々が出迎えてくれます。デッキに出てウェルカムドリンクやワンスプーンの食事で歓迎を受けます。船長との写真撮影がありました。帰り際に27ドルで購入できます。(ほとんどの方が購入しているように見えました)
船内のテーブルに案内されると、両サイドの席にも日本人の夫婦で同様にハネムーンでハワイに来ているようでした。ドリンク券を利用し最初はビールで乾杯。
その後、料理が順番に出てきましたがどれも美味しく、またスタッフの方もドリンクの注文や食事のペースなど気にかけてくれて愛想も良く気持ちの良い対応でした。
終始ピアノやサックスのジャズの生演奏があり、特別で素敵な時間でした。途中で再度デッキに出てサンセットを眺めたり、写真を撮ったりもできます。
最後は、女性に1輪の薔薇のプレゼントもありました。
最初から最後までVIP待遇で優雅で素敵な時間を過ごすことができます。
ハワイの夜に本当におすすめの体験です。

Star of Honolulu Dinner Cruise - Luxury Top Deck Sunset Dining Experience & Live Entertainment

Best memory of Honolulu

Reviewed by: Rachel

I booked this sunset cruise trip as a get-away trip for me and my mum. My mum is 70 years old and she has bad knees so we have limited activities we can enjoy in Honolulu. The Star of Honolulu is probably the biggest cruise I can find in Oahu. It even has an elevator so my mum does not need to climb stairs!
I was super impressed with the service. As soon as we boarded the ship, we were brought to deck #4 through the elevator, this is the top deck. We were greeted by crew members, have our private photo opportunity with the captain and two beautiful dancers. we enjoyed our onboard drink and appetizer before being brought to our table. by the way we have six alcohol drink vouchers as part of the package. we had a five-course meal: soup, salad, lobster, wellington beef, icecream, and desertl food is absolutely delicious. this is absolutely five star luxury dinner. Most of people were celebrating anniversary, honeymoon or birthday. The crews are super friendly and attentive. When my mom and I walked to the deck to take sunset pictures, they came out to help us! I highly recommended the tour, it will make your the other half feel so special. My best memory of Honolulu.

The best memories! The food and atmosphere are wonderful... 最高の思い出! 料理も景気も素晴らしい…

Reviewed by: ふぅさん

I participated in a 5-Star Cruise. I was surprised by the VIP treatment starting with the welcome drink we received on board. We could choose up to three types of alcohol, and the cocktails were generously sized, which was satisfying. The food was all exquisite, especially the beef, which was tender and delicious, leaving me very satisfied.

The international participants varied greatly in age, with many couples and pairs. The space between tables was spacious, providing a sense of privacy. There was live music with piano, saxophone, and singing, and there were moments where participants could join in for a cheek dance, creating a lovely atmosphere.

I was able to go out onto the deck, which was exclusive to 5-Star Cruise participants, whenever I wanted, and I thoroughly enjoyed the views from the sea. The vast ocean, the coastline, and Diamond Head were all breathtaking sights. The sunset was also moving.

5スタークルーズに参加しました。船上で頂いたウェルカムドリンクからVIP待遇で驚きました。
選べるお酒は3つまでOK。1杯のカクテルの量も多くて満足でした。料理も全て絶品で、特に牛肉が柔らかくて美味しくて大満足でした。
参加されている海外の方々は年齢が千差万別で夫婦かカップルが多かったです。テーブルとテーブルの間がゆったりしているので、プライベート感がありました。ピアノとサックスと歌の生演奏があり、参加者が有志参加でチークダンスをする場面もありムードがありました。
5スタークルーズ参加者しか出られないデッキに好きな時に出て、海上からの景色も思う存分楽しみました。大海原や湾岸、ダイヤモンドヘッド全てが最高の景気でした。夕日も感動でした。

5-Star Cruises 5スタークルーズ

Reviewed by: squash

I signed up for the 5-star plan, and here are my impressions.
The interior on the top deck felt elegant. The deck is exclusive to 5-star guests, which adds a special touch since guests on other plans cannot access it.
The food and drinks were delicious. While we enjoyed the scenery on the deck, we made sure not to miss the dishes being served, which added to our cruise experience.
One thing that caught my attention was that even though the ship had arrived, they played jazz music. I'm not sure if it was because we arrived early or due to the order of disembarkation, but we enjoyed the live performance.
It really depends on the weather, but this time was very enjoyable.

5スターのプランを申込み、その感想となります。
船内は最上階で室内も優雅さを感じました。デッキも5
スター専用で、別のプランの方が専用デッキには入れなく特別感があります。
料理や飲み物も美味しくいただきました。私たちがデッキで景色を楽しんでいるときにも料理が出されるの、見過ごさないように注意しながらクルーズを楽しみました。
気になったのが、船が到着したにもかかわらずジャズを奏でてくれたのですが、早く到着したからなのか、降りる順番か分かりませんが、生演奏を楽しみました。
かなり天気次第ですが今回はとても楽しかったです。

It was a beautiful evening on Mana Kai Catamaran out of Waikiki beach. We liked that it was BYOB and enjoyed the music played during the sailing. Please just note that this catamaran does leave right from the beach rather than a dock so plan accordingly. We had a great time though!

Star of Honolulu Dinner Cruise - Luxury Top Deck Sunset Dining Experience & Live Entertainment

An Absolute must do while in Waikiki

Reviewed by: TRich

Initially I was a bit skeptical about booking the sunset cruise because it had mixed reviews. It was my husband’s birthday so I took a chance. The booking I must say could be a bit easier to navigate, however this review is about the amazing experience. The transportation to the dock was free and luxurious from our hotel. Arriving at the dock we were greeted by music and the nicest staff, where we were then guided to the top deck to a welcome ceremony with Hors d’oeuvres and photos with the captain. After which we were shown to our table and the luxurious dining experience commenced. There were seven courses of excellent food and amazing staff. Our server Tyler was very nice and accommodating. The live piano jazz was a nice touch. The view was absolutely amazing so many photo worthy moments out on the deck! The overall experience was well worth it. The only con I would say is that the ship is a bit weathered, needs painting and updating in the dining rooms. Despite the dated decor we had a fantastic time.

Reviewed by: Melanie

My family and I ended our 7-day Hawaii vacation by booking this sunset booze cruise for our last night and it did NOT disappoint! It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. That sunset was truly stunning! The crew was extremely friendly and ensured we never had an empty beer or mai tai in our hands! One thing to keep in mind is that if waves are a bit rough it will not depart from Waikiki beach. Instead, they can change the departure to the pier, which is about a 15+ min drive from Waikiki with limited parking. To be honest I was definitely a bit disappointed about that but I forgot all about once I stepped on that catamaran and was given a Mai tai! Go ahead and book this, it's totally worth it!
