All Reviews for Star of Honolulu Cruise

My wife and I were recently transferred from the mainland and celebrated our 41st Anniversary here in Honolulu without our family, So we thought a seven course meal sunset dinner meal cruise with Jazz entertainment would an ideal way to celebrate our weddding anniversary. Coincidentally we were sitted next to another couple from Chicago who just renewed their wedding vows after 41 years of marriage also and found a lot in common with them (same age of children and grandchildren and pathway in life), thus truly enjoyed each company - for they were traveling by themselves as well. The Captain, the crew were great (especially Foster our server), the service was fantastic, and the food was great. And of course the entertainment and the ambiance with sunset backdrop and Waikiki ocean shore scenery made it memorable.

Here's what you can expect from Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise with Live Entertainment / Three Star Steak and Lobster Dinner with Jazz entertainers.

Coast over the calm water of Waikiki aboard the most popular dinner cruise in Hawaii, where you
will be treated to live music, top dining and spectacular views.

Upon arrival at Aloha Tower Pier, you will be guided to the top deck, where the captain and crew are waiting to treat you to a Hawaiian Belini toast and seasonal appetizers. A sophisticated way to start off an elegant evening at sea.
7-Course Dinner

Served in the luxurious top-deck Super Nova room, this premium French-style dinner menu features only the best seasonal ingredients picked and prepared by expert chefs. Maine lobster and top-quality beef tenderloin are sure to be highlights of the meal.

Sunset

As the final moments of daylight fade over the Pacific horizon, the Super Nova room fills with warm light. Views of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach

Due to rain that evening, there was no sunset. But three of us enjoyed the dinner and live entertainment. Fortunately, we were seated at a table right in front. Our waiter, Ethan was superb! He was very friendly and attentive to our needs. Dinner was delicious! Would recommend this event.

Would highly recommend!! We enjoyed this so so much! Very professional and polite crew!!

The food was only ok. Service was very good. show was great! We had some wind which made some waves, so the boat was rocking a bit. Our server came around to ask if anyone was feeling seasick. Thankfully, no one in our group was.

Definetly do the 5 star....it was my wife's 40th Birthday and we had a great meal, beautiful views! Awesome sunset! GREAT music....the staff was wonderful and the setting was very romantic. I would do it again!!!

My wife and I booked this during our honeymoon and definitely enjoyed ourselves! The food was delicious, the view was spectacular and gave us plenty of picture opportunities at sunset on the back of the ship! We definitely enjoyed the on board entertainment with the hula dancers, the gentleman on the ukelele, solo vocalist, pianist and they even had a saxophone player who dabbled in the art of the jazz flute! What a great night out!!

Best cruise we have been on. Great staff, very helpful. Would recommend to anyone looking for an affordable dinner cruise.

It was a nice dinner cruise. Entertainer was beautiful. Just wish we had air conditioning, it was hot.

My family enjoyed the dinner cruise. The Staff were so accommodating to change the menu to their guests preference. I learned a lot which side I should wear my flower. The entertainment is awesome, complete with the proper attire to educate the guests about the Hawaiian tradition, I will highly recommend this dinner cruise to anyone visiting Hawaii .Thanks to Emily of Veltra for helping me book the Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise.

Great food, great service, friendly and attentive staff. The show was awesome would love to do it again when we come back in 2019!!

I was busy with work and couldn't go on a honeymoon. For our 30th wedding anniversary, I chose this tour to Hawaii for the first time. I kept the wedding ceremony a surprise for my wife. While we were on the cruise, enjoying Red Lobster and steak, the crew said they would take us to meet the captain, and we had the ceremony there. It was sudden, and my wife was overjoyed, thanking me for a lifetime memory.

仕事が忙しく新婚旅行に行くことが出来なかたった。今回初めてのハワイで結婚30年の節目にこのツアーを選びました。妻には、結婚セレモニーを内緒にサプライズにしておきました。クルーに入って、レッドロブスターやステーキを食べている時、船長にあわせてあげると言って連れて行かれセレモニーをして頂きました。突然のことで妻も、一生の思い出をありがとうと大喜びでした。

My wife and I had a great time. The scenery was amazing and we got some really good pictures. The food was really good also.

We had a wonderful time on the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. Met really nice people. The Crew was a lot of fun teaching us the hula. The sunset was beautiful. The food was great. Very organized.

Unfortunately, it seems that the whales went towards Canada, so we couldn't go whale watching. I'm disappointed that it looks like I won't be able to use the tickets before they expire! I'll try again next year.

あいにくクジラたちはカナダの方へ行ったようでホエールウオッチングは叶いませんでした。
頂いたチケット期限に使えそうもなく残念！！又来年トライします。

I participated with my wife and my parents, who are nearly 80 years old. We found out at the last minute that our reserved sunset cruise was not available due to Independence Day, so we hurriedly signed up for this plan instead. It was quite a bit over our budget, but in the end, it was definitely the right choice. We were able to watch the Independence Day fireworks from the boat, and my parents were absolutely thrilled.

家内と80歳目前の両親と一緒に参加しました。他に予約していたサンセットクルーズが独立記念日ということで予約できてないことが直前にわかり、慌ててこちらのプランを申し込みました。予算的にはかなりオーバーしましたが、結果的にこちらで大正解でした。独立記念日の花火も船上から見ることができて、両親も大喜びでした。

It was well organized and everyone was very friendly. The singer Leilani was amazing she is a talented musician and told great stories. The food was better than expected. I would recommend to anyone.

I had a really good time with my husband!! Perfect date night. The food was delicious and so were the drinks.

Was really well done. Worth the money. Great entertainment and food.

We opted for the 5-star menu, and it was awesome. food was delicious, and service was fantastic. It was a terrific way to celebrate our anniversary.

We had a wonderful evening. Food was great, entertainment was fun. Very helpful staff. Would recommend this to everyone.

The Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise was the best I have ever experienced! Food was excellent and rates a 10!!! The service was top notch with the servers offering to do anything to make our trip pleasant and fun. The entertainment was more than expected and with the audience participation it made the evening so enjoyable. I would take my whole family next time!

Had a great time. It's worth it. Highly recommeded

It was uncertain whether we would see whales towards the end of the season, but unfortunately, we didn't. I will try again.

シーズン終わり近くで、クジラが見られるか微妙でしたが、残念ながら見れませんでした。
また挑戦します。

I have been living in Hawaii for about six months for work. I used this for a solo trip on my day off! I was able to choose options for breakfast and transportation to the location. I applied for the cheapest tour without any extras. I took The Bus to the location and was able to find the boat right away without any issues. I recommend The Bus for those with some time to spare! I only saw the whales for a brief moment, but since it's nature... there's nothing you can do about it. It's a limited-time event, so I can't participate now, but if I'm in Hawaii during the season again, I would like to join once more.

私はハワイに仕事で半年ぐらいの在住者です。休みの日の一人旅で利用！
朝食の有無、現地まで送迎の有無をオプションで選べました。私は何も付けない一番安いツアーに申込ました。ザ・バスで現地までＧＯ！船もすぐに見つけることができ問題無しでした。時間に余裕のある方はザ・バスをお勧めします！クジラはほんの一瞬だけしか見れませんでしが、自然が相手ですから…仕方がないですね。期間限定ですので今は参加できませんが、シーズになりハワイにいれば、また参加したです。

The food and entertainment was fabulous.
The service was great.
Everyone was very accommodating too.

Just a little bit of tail flapping and a few spouts. I was worried about seasickness, but thanks to taking motion sickness medication and being out on the deck in the wind, I was fine. Next time, I want to see the jumps as well. I don't know how many years it will be, but I want to participate again.

ほんのすこしだけ、尾ひれを振ってくれたのと、何度かの潮吹きと。
心配していた船酔いは、酔い止めを飲んだおかげか、
ずっとデッキに出ていたので風に当たっていたおかげか、大丈夫でした。
次はジャンプなども見たいです。何年後になるかわかりませんが、また参加したいです。

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to encounter any whales. Since it was towards the end of the season, I think it's understandable.

Also, the large boat swayed quite a bit. I think motion sickness medication is definitely needed.

Next time, I hope to visit Hawaii during a better season and try again! For those who love boats, just being on board can be quite enjoyable, and since it's a half-day course, you can make good use of your time, so I recommend it!

残念ながら、クジラに出会うことができませんでした。シーズン最後ぐらいだったのでしようがないかなと思っています。
あと、大型の船ですが、結構ゆれました。酔い止めは結構必要かなと思います。
今度はもう少しよいシーズンにハワイに行けれた、また再度チャレンジをしたいと思います！
船が好きな人は、乗ってるだけでも結構楽しめますし、半日コースなので時間も有効活用できますので、おすすめです！

I had seen some reviews mentioning that sightings were not guaranteed, and since I made a last-minute reservation for April 4th, I was prepared for that possibility. However, quite early on, the captain announced, "We have spotted a whale at 3 o'clock!" There were about five or six directions given, and we could see the spouts! According to the naturalist's announcement, the whale was about 45 meters away from the boat. While we didn't see any flashy features like the tail fin, it has left me looking forward to next time.

I opted for no breakfast, but since those with and without meals are on the same floor, I think it's fine to skip it if you don't mind looking over at others. I believe breakfast only takes about 15 minutes, so it wasn't a big deal to go without it.

ここでの口コミで見えなかった…という声があり、また4/4というシーズンギリギリの予約だったため見られないことも想定していましたが、割と早い段階で「3時の方向に鯨を発見しました」と船長のアナウンス！！5.6回は方向の指示が出て、潮吹きが見えました！ナチュラリストの方のアナウンスによると45m位船から離れた位置に見えました。尾びれなどのハデな見え方はなかったですが、次回への期待にします。
朝食なしにしましたが、食事ありとなしの人が同じフロアなので、横目で見るのが平気であればなしで良いと思います。朝食を食べる時間は15分程度だと思いますのでまぁなくても良かったかなという感じです

I was really glad to be able to see the deep blue, incredibly beautiful sea. It was truly stunning. However, I couldn't see anything else at all. It was frustrating not to receive a reboarding ticket for when I couldn't see anything, regardless of whether I could go or not; it felt like the promises weren't being kept. Since one of my family members gets seasick, we opted for no meals, but the seating was mixed up between those who had meals and those who didn't. My little child was looking enviously at the people around us who were eating, and I felt a bit disheartened. I wish they could have at least separated the seating a little within the area...

深い青のすごくきれいな海に出られたことは良かったです。本当に綺麗でした。ひたすらそれだけで全く何も見れませんでしたが。見られなかった際の再乗船チケットもらえず、行ける行けないは別にして約束事を守ってもらえないのは不快です。船酔いしてしまう家族がいるので食事無しにしましたが、食事ありなしの人たちの席がごちゃ混ぜで、すぐ周りで食べている人たちをウチの小さい子供が羨ましそうに見ていて、あ～ぁと思いました。何となくフロアの中でも席を分けてくれればいいのに・・・
