All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

The wind, the sunset, and Mai Tai!! Enjoying champagne while gazing at the streets of Honolulu, the rainbow, and the setting sun was just the best. It was an extraordinary experience. I definitely want to participate again next time! ^_^

風と夕日とマイタイ‼️ホノルルの街並み、虹、沈む夕日を眺めながらのシャンパン、もう最高でした。非日常の世界でした。次回も是非参加したいです^_^

I saw it in a travel magazine and decided to include it in our schedule. The weather was a bit bad on the day we went, but when I suddenly looked at Diamond Head, there was a rainbow over it. The sway of the yacht as we moved over the waves, everyone swaying to the music and enjoying drinks, the excitement with people from various countries, and the sunset sinking into the sea was absolutely beautiful. The night view on the way back was fantastic, and it was truly a fun two hours. Thank you to the staff of Nahoku for creating such a wonderful time.

旅行雑誌で見かけて、スケジュールに入れて見ました、私達が行った日は少し天気が悪かったのですが、ふとダイヤモンドヘッドを見るとレインボーがかかってました。波の上を進む時のヨットの揺れ、音楽に乗ってみな身体を揺らしお酒を楽しみ、様々な国の人との盛り上がり、また海に沈む夕陽は最高にビューティフルでした。帰る時は夜景が最高で本当に楽しい2時間でした。盛り上げて下さったナホクのスタッフの方本当に素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。

From the crew staff to the crowd and the music the vibe was perfect!!!! I definitely had a great time!!! And the captain definitely gave us more than three drinks for sure!

About an hour before the gathering, I checked the boat's location, and when I arrived 30 minutes prior, I panicked because the boat was missing. The voucher mentioned that there might not be a boat even at the check-in time, but it also stated that due to sea conditions, the departure could be from a completely different beach. It said they would contact us individually, but since there was no international phone number, I was worried that I might have been left behind. In the end, the boat did not arrive until the departure time, and there was no shade on the beach under the blazing sun, with no restrooms nearby, so arriving too early is something to be cautious about.

However, once on board, I found a bar where you could drink freely, and later it turned into a lively club atmosphere with upbeat music (the passengers on passing boats seemed a bit taken aback), which really made me feel like I was experiencing something international! I would like to use this service again if I have the chance. Shoes are stored away, and it's barefoot on the boat. It gets quite wet, so wearing a swimsuit with a rash guard was definitely the right choice!

集合の１時間ほど前に船の位置を下見して、30分前に行ったら船がなく焦りました。
バウチャーにはチェックインの時間になっても船がないことがあるとは書いてありましたが、海況で全く違うビーチ発になることもあるとも書いてあり、個別連絡するとは書いてあるもの、海外用の電話番号もなかったためまさか置いてかれたのか？と気が気ではありませんでした。。
結局出港の時間まで船は来ず、炎天下のビーチで日陰はなく、近くにはトイレもないので、早く着きすぎるのも要注意です。

ただ、乗ってみたら気軽に飲み放題できるバーと後半はノリノリBGMのクラブ状態（すれ違った船の乗客は若干引くほど）でまさに海外を味わえた気がしますｗ
また機会があったらこちらを利用したいな、とは思いました。
靴は仕舞われ船上は裸足。結構濡れるので水着にラッシュで正解でした！

Celebrating my wife's birthday on the Star of Honolulu! It was organized from the time we were picked up at our hotel by bus to being seated at our reserved table. The ship is divided by what package you purchase (excellent idea). We got a chance to watch fireworks from the Hilton Hawaiian Hotel beach. But was wonderful was the breezes off the ocean in addition to the wonderful sunset while you have your meal. Your meal is brought to your table by the fantastic wait staff. Live music is performed while dining. Later, there is a hula/chaka show. Before you know it, the night is over. My wife received a special birthday cake that was light as a feather and delicious. We ended our stay in Oahu with this dinner cruise. Best time spent. Would do it again just for the sunsets.

I capped off our 20th wedding anniversary with this Sunset Cruise. My wife and I were tremendously pleased with everything from start to finish. From the greetings to fireworks everything was on point. The food was delicious and the wait staff was impeccable. The live jazz music was great. I recommend you get the luxury experience with all the options. We enjoyed the 5 star treatment. It was classy and sophisticated. This will be a very memorable experience.

The Sunset Dinner Cruise, a luxurious 5-star experience, has upgraded its seating options to include window-side choices. The piano performance and live show were dreamy. The optional wine was so good that I wanted to have more, and the time flew by.

サンセット・ディナークルーズ豪華5スターは、更にシートもバージョンアップし窓際をオプション選択ピアノ演奏と生のライブショーは、夢心地でした。
オプションのワインもお替りをしたいぐらいで、あっという間のひと時でした。

Food was delicious, creds to the chefs! The firework show as well was awesome.

First Hats off to Veltra! They went above and beyond to accommodate us after I chose the wrong event!

This sunset cruise was amazing! The weather was perfect the crew was fun, accommodating and the music was perfect! We could not have asked for a better evening!

Our group had a great time! However, we weren't expecting to get wet on the ride. I think that should be included in the description - as I think it's quite common. Drinks were tasty and the views of the sunset at Waikiki were excellent.

On the last day of my trip, I wanted to feel a bit luxurious and wrap up my enjoyable memories. As expected from 5STAR! The course dinner was very delicious (^.^). The sunset and the lights of Waikiki from the sea were as beautiful as jewels! The stylish atmosphere with jazz will surely create unforgettable memories with my loved ones.

旅の最終日にちょっとリッチな気分で楽しい思い出の締めくくり。
さすが5STAR！コースディナーの味もとても美味しくいただきました(^.^)
サンセットも海上から見るワイキキの灯も宝石みたいなキレイさ！
JAZZでオシャレな雰囲気は大切な方との生涯忘れられない思い出になると思います。

I experienced cruising for the first time, and it was wonderful. The sunset was truly beautiful and moving. After heading out to sea, I was nervous about the swimming time, thinking the water might be cold, but surprisingly it wasn't and the temperature was quite pleasant (for reference, it was mid-October). However, a large towel and long sleeves are essential. I was also happy with the snack service after playing. Taking motion sickness medication beforehand was the right choice. It was a lot of fun.

初めてクルージングを体験しましたが、とても良かったです。
サンセットが本当に美しく感動でした。
沖に出た後のスイミングタイムは、水が冷たいのではないかと、ドキドキしながら入りましたが、意外にそうでもなく気持ちの良い温度でした(参考までに10月中旬です)。
ただ大きいタオル、長袖は必須です。
遊んだ後にスナックのサービスも嬉しかったです。
酔い止めは飲んでおいて正解でした。
楽しかったです。

The cruise was amazing
Food was delicious
My husband was in a mobility scooter and we were told by your company that he could not use it as weighed too
Much so had to hire a wheelchair.
When got on the bus we mentioned it to the star of Honolulu host and she said we did not need to do that. So maybe for any future customers you could check your information first.

When looking at activities for our honeymoon, we were definitely looking for an on the water experience. There are lots of options in regards to sunset or fireworks(every friday) but most of them seemed to include having to be on a boat with many other families. While we are not opposed to spending time with strangers and getting to meet people, we really wanted to have a "next level" experience where we had pictures to share and memories to make.

Pau Hana sailing delivered on every single level. Captain Austin made sure our experience was one to remember. He helped us take pictures and was an absolute gem to spend two hours with.

Considering the pricing to be on our own private charter was only slightly more than being on one with tons of other families, there was absolutely no downside. I cannot recommend Pau hana sailing enough.

When we come back for an anniversary we will absolutely be booking again. Mahalo!

Beautiful relaxing evening. Free-flowing drinks. Thoroughly enjoyable sail.

My husband and I had a good time on the cruise. The food was good and the show was fun!

Easy entry process, meet by dance troop and greeted by crew member. Scored a very nice table by the window. Staff were warm and friendly and our first free drink was delivered promptly. Food was good and plentiful and stayed out as long as people kept going up. Show was as expected with all staff taking part. We did the fireworks night which was fab. Only real complaint was with the Sunset, the sun didn't com out to play :).
We enjoyed the evening thank you

I made a reservation to experience sailing in Hawaii for the first time. The meeting point was easy to find on the first floor of the Outrigger Reef, and we boarded from the beach about a 10-minute walk away. I don't understand English at all, but the translation app worked just fine! The crew members were very considerate, asking if I wanted a drink and if I wanted to take photos. I even saw a rainbow next to Diamond Head! It truly became a wonderful memory!

初めてのハワイで、セーリング体験したいなと思い予約して行きました
集合もわかりやすくアウトリガーリーフの1階で、歩いて10分くらいの浜辺から乗船。まったく英語がわかりませんが、翻訳アプリで大丈夫でした！クルーのお兄さんも、飲み物はいかが？や、写真撮ろうか？と気を使ってくれました！
ダイヤモンドヘッド横に虹もみえました！
ほんとに素敵な思い出になりました！

We had the best time on the Na Hoku!
The team was friendly and fun and the drinks were off the nautical charts!
The only thing that would have made it better if it was adults only!
It was awkward to have small children on a Happy Hour Sail, otherwise
it was great!
We had smooth sailing on a very comfortably outfitted catamaran.
The beauty of Oahu was enhanced by the beautiful boat and crew!
Thank you Na Hoku!

Private table is not Private at all, you have about 2ft at the most between tables. Service was slow we were told by the server he was covering our area due to another employee not showing up. It took a while to get drinks or water refilled. They don't have condiments available for your meal. It was very warm during dinner and the sun was blinding. Take sunglasses. The top deck was a great area to get some air. There was a large amount of guest and I thought they do a pretty good job handling the amount of people on board but it may be too many for the guest to have a truly great experience

It departs from in front of Waikiki Beach, so the atmosphere is very nice. Unlike large vessels, you can feel the refreshing breeze and the sense of openness is fantastic. The music is great, and the vibe was the best.
When getting on and off the yacht, there are times when you might get wet up to your pants. Be careful.

ワイキキビーチの前から出発するので、とても雰囲気が良いです、大きい船舶と違い、風を受けながら開放感満点です、音楽もいいし、雰囲気最高でした
ヨットに乗り降りする時、ズボンのあたりまで濡れる時があります。注意しましょう。

We had a wonderful time on the cruise, the staff were friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the atmosphere and music on board, didn't expect to get drenched on some big waves, but we had a blast. Would highly recommend the cruise!!!

It would be nice if the back ground music was not exist. Since the sailing time only with soft wave sound, would be my best prefered environment.

I had wanted to go on the Mai Tai Catamaran since last year. It departs right in front of the Sheraton where I was staying. The two skippers were really enthusiastic and it was a lot of fun. There were three groups of Japanese participants, including a baby. The sunset was breathtakingly beautiful.

去年から行きたかったマイタイカタマラン号。宿泊していたシェラトンの真ん前から出航します。スキッパーの二人がノリノリで楽しかったです。
日本人は3組参加。赤ちゃんもいました。サンセットは息を呑む美しさでした。

My wife and I participated together. We went out to sea on a catamaran, enjoyed snorkeling, made our way to the surfboard relying on our safety lines, and spent a thrilling half day. During sunset, they played ballads, and we were able to have a wonderful time. The cost performance was excellent. Thank you ❤️

妻と二人で参加させて頂きました。カタマランで沖に出て、シュノーケリングを楽しんで、命綱を頼りにサーフボードまでたどり着き、スリリングな半日を過ごしました。サンセットタイムにはバラードを流して頂き素敵な時間を過ごすことが出来ました。コスパ最高でした。ありがとう❤️

The boat, the sea, and all the staff were wonderful and fun.

I look forward to next time!

⛴️、海、️､､､及びスタッフの皆さんは、素敵楽しかった。

今度、またよろしくね❗️

Went on this sunset cruise with my wife on our honeymoon and gotta say it was definitely a highlight! Big Ryan was super cool too

Exceptional cruise! Great service; friendly staff; fantastic entertainment; overall experience was outstanding!!! Highly recommend!!

The people operating the cruise made it fantastic! I wouldn’t think any other sunset sail would be as good as what these three gentlemen did. Would recommend to everyone.

A wonderful event that my husband and kiddos all loved- a memory made together!
