All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

It may have been a coincidence, but there were no other Japanese people besides us among the staff and passengers. It was mostly young Americans, which was very nice. The catamaran was also wonderful.

たまたまかもしれないが、受付も乗客も我々以外に日本人はいなかった。　ヤングアメリカンばかりで、大変良かった。
カタマランも素晴らしい。

It's a boat that feels like a fish without substance, but it allows you to feel close to the sea, which is great. It's a fun experience that you don't get with larger boats.

身のない魚のような船ですが、
海を身近に感じれてイーです。
大きな船にはない楽しさですね。

Great evening and entertainment. Sat by door which despite staffs attempts to block off, was continually opened by customers causing a lot of wind while we ate.

It was simply amazing. This was the best part of the tour. The wind was quite strong and the waves were high, so we ended up soaking wet as if we had taken a shower, but that made it even more fun. My husband and I are already talking about participating again the next time we go to Hawaii. Despite the huge waves, I didn't feel seasick at all, which was incredibly enjoyable. The tour lasted about two hours and was reasonably priced, so I signed up with a casual mindset, but it turned out to be a great decision. On the way back to Waikiki Beach, we encountered sea turtles twice, which really boosted our excitement. When the staff threw out some food, a lot of fish came over, and that was great too. I highly recommend it.

とにかく面白いの一言です。
今回のツアーの中では最高でした。
風が結構あって波も高かったのでまるでシャワーをあびたようにびしょぬれ状態でしたが、そこがまた楽しくて今度ハワイに行った時も絶対に参加しようと主人と話しています。
あんなにすごい波なのに船に酔うという事が楽しすぎて全くありません。
時間も２時間位だしお値段も安いのでついでの様な気持ちで申し込んだツアーでしたが、大正解でした。
ワイキキの浜へ戻る時にウミガメと2回遭遇してまたテンションが上がりました。
スタッフの方が餌をまいたら沢山お魚が寄ってきてそれも良かったですよ。
かなりお勧めです。

I payed an extra 25 dollars per person for a guaranteed private table but the couples table next to us was maybe 6 inches away. Not very private at all. This issue aside it was a great experience and we had a lot of fun.

The sunset viewed from the catamaran was amazing. The wind is strong over the sea, and it gets quite cool in the evening, so don't forget to bring a light jacket!

カタマランから眺めるサンセットは最高でした。
海の上は風が強く夕方は結構涼しいので羽織るのもを忘れずに！

The luxurious dinner on the large ship was like a show, so I decided to book a different route. It was very good. The captain was a typical American, but he spoke fluent Japanese and kept cracking jokes. We enjoyed the sunset while moving around the deck. We got close to the fireworks on the yacht, and they were spectacular. I highly recommend it to many people.

大きな船での豪華ディナーはショーなので、別の路線に行きたく申し込ませていただきました。
大変良かったです。キャプテンがこてこてのアメリカ人なのですが、日本語ペラペラの冗談続き。
デッキ中、あっちに行ったりこっちに行ったりしながら夕日を堪能させていただきました。花火もヨットなのですぐ近くまで行って、迫力満点で見せていただきました。多くの人に、推薦します。

We will set sail around 4:00 PM and return before 6:00 PM. One of the great points is being able to see Waikiki from a perspective that you can't from the ground. Additionally, you can view Diamond Head from an angle that is usually not visible, which was also nice. We'll return just in time for sunset, so you'll get to see a really beautiful sunset. Since drinks are all-you-can-drink, I think it's great for those who can handle their alcohol and don't get seasick!

16：00ころ出航して、18:00前くらいに戻ってきます。
地上からは見ることの出来ないワイキキの姿を見れるのがグッドポイントです。またダイアモンドヘッドも普段は見れない角度から見れてこれも良かった。
戻ってくる頃にちょうどサンセットの時間帯ですごくきれいな夕日が見れます。
お酒が飲み放題なので、お酒が強くて、船酔いしない人にとっては良いと思います！

I had heard that it was hard to get seasick, but when we went out into the open ocean, it was anything but fireworks. The foreigners around me were also terribly seasick. I'm done with this.

あまり酔いにくいと聞いていたのですが、外洋に出たときには花火どころではありませんでした。周りの外国人もひどく酔っていました。こりごりです。

We participated as a family of four. Since I have experienced dinner cruises on large ships twice before, this time we chose the catamaran. The ship was almost full, but we were the only Japanese guests. There were many foreign couples, and the all-you-can-drink Mai Tai was very popular. I had three myself.

It does sway quite a bit (sometimes the captain intentionally makes it rock), so it's not suitable for families with small children, but you can stand on the deck, and I think it's perfect for adult groups. Also, since we stayed at the Sheraton, it's very convenient for those staying at nearby hotels. I definitely want to participate again next time.

家族４名で参加しました。
大型船でのディナークルーズは、これまで２回経験しているので、今回はカタマラン号にしました。
船内は、ほぼ満席でしたが、日本人は我々だけ。外国人は、カップルも多く、飲み放題でマイタイが大人気。私も３杯いただきました。
さすがに揺れるので（船長がわざと揺らす場合もあります）、小さい子供づれには不向きですが、甲板にも立てますし、大人のグループには最適だと思います。また、宿泊がシェラトンだったのっで、近くのホテルに宿泊の方はとても便利です。
次回もぜひ参加したいです。

Everyone except for us, a couple, was from an English-speaking country.
At the beginning, the pace was slow and the atmosphere was relaxed, but from the middle, the speed picked up, and we were squealing with excitement at the splashes of water.
The background music also got louder, and everyone's spirits lifted.
Although it was far away, I was moved to see a whale.
Out in the distance, the crew members were feeding fish.
There were mostly black fish, but many gathered around.
As for attire, some people were in swimsuits, while others wore T-shirts and shorts.
It's reasonably priced, and I think it's worth participating.
It was truly refreshing.

私たち夫婦以外は皆さん英語圏の方でした。
序盤は緩やかなスピードでのんびりした雰囲気でしたが、
中盤から、スピードが速くなり、水しぶきにキャーキャー。
ＢＧＭも大音量になって、皆のテンションも上がります。
遠くでしたが、クジラを見れて感動しました。
沖の方で、船員さんが魚にエサをあげます。
黒い魚ばかりでしたがたくさん集まってきました。
服装は、水着の人もいれば、Ｔシャツに短パンの人もいました。
手頃な値段だし、参加してみてもいいと思います。
まさに爽快です。

The weather wasn't very good, but seeing the whales made for an amazing memory. I would like to participate again next time.

天気は、あまり良くなかったですが、クジラも見れて最高の思い出になりました。
次回も、参加したいと思います。

There are various menus available, and even during the bright red sunset from land, sea, and sky, the sunset from the sea evokes an exhilarating reaction regardless of age. The pricing, crew, number of tour participants, and of course, the handsome captain provided truly delightful service tailored for singles, couples, and families. About one-third of the tour participants were Japanese, but after departure, everyone formed a group. The hosts were wonderful, and coincidentally, we were on the same boat as the currently popular couple, Yuya Uchida and Kiki Kuroki, which added to the sense of quality. I would love to ride the same catamaran with the same crew next time.

色々なメニューが有ります、陸海空からの真っ赤なサンセット中でも海からのサンセットは年齢に関わらず感激の奇声を発してしまいます、価格、クルー、ツアーの人数、キャプテンは無論イケメンコンビは、シングル、カップル、ファミリーへの肌理細やかなサービスには誠に楽しいものでした、ツアーの日本人は三分の一位でしたが，出航後は全員がグループ化していました素晴らしいホストでもありました、又当日は偶然にも今話題の内田裕也、樹希樹林夫妻と同船で、グレード感も感じました、次回も同じクルーのカタマラン号に乗りたいたいと思います。

I participated on the last night of my honeymoon. The fireworks viewed from the sea were very beautiful. I think it will be a great memory. The tour is in English, but there are crew members who can speak Japanese, which is reassuring.

新婚旅行の最後の夜に参加しました。
海からの見る花火はとても綺麗でした。
いい記念になると思います。
ツアーは英語となってますが、日本語が話せるクルーもいて安心です。

The sunset viewed from Waikiki Beach is beautiful, but the sunset seen from the ocean is exceptional. Be sure to enjoy the sunset cruise on a catamaran among the guests from the mainland. I think you'll create memories that are different from before.

ワイキキビーチから見るサンセットも素敵ですが、洋上から眺めるサンセットは格別。本土からの客に交じって是非カタマランからのサンセットクルーズを楽しんでください。これまでと違った思い出が残ると思います。

We originally tried to book the Navatek Cruise for Valentine's Night, but it was fully booked. We then booked the following night (Wednesday 15th Feb), but after receiving our confirmation we were advised that 15th had been overbooked, so we were moved to the 16th. Found this slightly strange, as we were a party of 10, however, no great harm done as we were all free on the 16th.
Bus pick up was slightly early, but we lost this advantage when a couple of passengers at one of the other hotels were late, however, still reached the dock in plenty of time.
Cruise itself was very good - we had pretty good views from our table. The food and entertainment was excellent and service fast and efficient. Drink prices also very reasonable (a decent bottle of red wine was only $ 20.00).
Views from up on the viewing decks were spectacular, and everything finished bang on time at 7.30 pm, with buses sitting waiting for us at the dock, before a speedy ride back to our hotel.
Overall a very good exp

We participated as a couple on the recommendation of our son and his wife, who joined us two days ago. Although I couldn't catch the English explanations very well, we had a great time following these points that I heard from them:

- Sit inside the red line on the net during departure and arrival.
- Once we are out at sea, try to avoid going on the net as much as possible.
- Do not touch the ropes.
- The first drink is recommended to be the original cocktail, but there is also unlimited beer, champagne, and wine available.

2日前に参加した息子夫婦から勧められ、夫婦で参加しました。説明の英語はうまく聞き取れませんでしたが、息子夫婦から伝え聞いた以下の点を守って、大いに楽しみました。

出港時と帰港時は、ネットの上、赤線の内側に座ること、
沖に出たらネットの上にはできるだけ行かないこと、
ロープ類には触らないこと、
最初の一杯はオリジナルカクテルをお勧めするが、他にビールもシャンパンもワインも飲み放題なこと。

The view of Waikiki from the sea was truly exceptional. This time, there were no other Japanese participants, and the crew's explanations were in lively local English, so I felt that having a certain level of English understanding would make it more enjoyable. Unlimited champagne, the best views, and a fun time with happy fellow passengers—it's really a great deal for this price.

海から振り返って見るワイキキの景色は、また格別でした。今回は日本人の参加者が他にいなく、クルーの説明もノリのいいローカルイングリッシュなので、ある程度の英語が分かった方が安心して楽しめるかな、とは感じました。飲み放題のシャンパン、最高の景色、ハッピーな乗客のみなさんとの楽しい時間、この価格で楽しめるなんて、ほんとうにお得です。

It may have been a coincidence, but everyone except for us were American participants, so we really felt like we were abroad.

たまたまかもしれませんが、自分たち以外は全員アメリカの参加者でしたので一番の海外気分になれました。

It was an easy, inexpensive, and refreshing sailing experience. Running across the sea towards the sunset felt great, and the view of Honolulu in the evening from the ocean was beautiful. It seems that we went quite far out compared to other yachts.

The captain and staff's explanations are in English, but they don't seem to say much, so I think it's fine even for those who are not good at English. The participants were about 60% Westerners and 40% Japanese, including couples, families, and groups. Since alcoholic drinks were free, it got lively towards the end, mainly among the Westerners.

The check-in office is located near the Sheraton Hotel's beach foot wash area, close to the landing spot for the Mai Tai Catamaran. It's a small yacht, but there is a small, narrow toilet located at the front of the left hull. It shakes a bit, so it's not very convenient to use.

手軽で、安くて、爽快なセーリングでした。
夕日に向かって海原を走るのは大変気持ちが良く、沖から見る夕方のホノルルの街もきれいでした。他のヨットにくらべかなり沖に出るようです。
船長・スタッフの説明は英語ですが、大したことは言っていない模様ですでの、英語の苦手な方のでも大丈夫かと思います。
参加者は西洋人６割、日本人４割ぐらいで、カップル、ファミリー、グループいろいろでした。アルコール類もフリードリンクだったので、最後の方は西洋人中心に盛り上がっていました。
チェックイン事務所はシェラトンホテルのビーチ足洗い場近くにあり、マイタイ・カタマラン号の上陸場所近くです。
ちっちゃいヨットですが、左胴体内の前方下に小さく狭いトイレがあります。揺れますのであまり使い勝手は良くないです。

It was a bit chilly, but the bartender was very friendly, and it was a great situation with only American participants. The atmosphere was nice, and although the wait for the fireworks was a little long, it was a really enjoyable time.

ちょっと肌寒いけど、バーテンもとっても気さくで、参加者がアメリカ人のみというとってもいいシチュエーション。雰囲気もよく、ちょっぴり花火までの時間が長かったけど、すごく楽しいひとときでした。

The first time I rode a catamaran, it felt amazing, so I used it again this time. It might be a time to forget the usual fatigue and be healed during the vacation.

はじめてカタマランを乗った時、とても気持ち良かったため今回も利用しました。
バケーションには普段の疲れを忘れられ癒される時間かもしれません。

This was a wonderful experience. The employees were courteous and friendly and hospitable. We saw whales and rocked out to good music while feasting our eyes on the gorgeous ocean and the sunset. The mai tai's were great. We want to go again.

This is our second Sunset Cruise and we had a wonderful time. Service and Entertainment was outstanding. Food was average, and uneventful. We are not fans of meat cooked rare and would have liked to had the meat cooked to our liking. We look forward to taking this dinner cruise again, when we are in Honolulu.

my husband and i went on the star of honolulu last year for our annual trip to hawaii, and he surprised me the dinner cruise on valentines day! it was just perfect. i thought we were going to go to a regular dinner but instead he takes me to this luxury ship and even got the 5 star!! that was just too much! the jazz music was so relaxing, so much better than the cheesey hula music, and the food was ridiculously delicious ^_^ like i haven't had anything that good since. the steak like melted into my mouth and the appetizers were so yummers too~!!!!

i wish i was in hawaii for valentines again this year so i could go again XD

I took my friends from California to this cruise. Their mai tai is delicious and they are all you can drink! The whole cruise is very relaxing and you get to enjoy the Honolulu coast. The timing is perfect as well.

Highly recommended!

Sunset and fireworks viewing! Friday only dinner cruise.

It's just the best.

The staff is friendly, and you can enjoy wine while watching the sunset, and at the end, there are fireworks!!

I especially recommend it for couples.

サンセットと花火を観賞！金曜日限定ディナークルーズ
とにかく最高です。

スタッフの方も気さくだし、夕日を見ながらワインを飲んで
最後には花火！！

特にカップルにお勧めですよ

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This was one of the most fun experiences we've had here in Hawaii! We moved here this summer and when my parents told us they were coming to visit again, I knew we had to do something special. And this was it! We had 6 adults and 5 kids between the ages of 7 and 11. The kids stole the show - they danced the whole time! It did not matter that there was drinking going on - the kids had a blast! How could they not? And of course we joined them in the dancing when the music got pumped up. Starting out with

The scenery was obviously beautiful and the crew seemed very knowledgable and capable. However, I have not been on a cruise like this before and conduct of other passengers and comments by crew about drinking and such were inappropriate in the presence of children. The enviroment was definitely not a family one. I was disappointed because my children did not enjoy it like I thought they would because they felt uncomfortable.

The sunset, the sea breeze, the drinks, and the atmosphere were all amazing on the catamaran. But... why was it on the net? A friend's camera from a wedding and honeymoon slipped through the net and fell into the sea! A fun memory turned into a sad one...

夕日も、海風も、お酒も、雰囲気も最高のカタマラン号でした。が・・・なぜ？網の上なの？ウェディング＆ハネムーンの友人のカメラが見事網の目をくぐって海へ！楽しい思い出が悲しい思い出に・・・
