My daughter, grandkids and I had a great experience with Star of Honolulu. The show mesmerized my grandkids and the "conga line" gave party boat a new meaning. Would live to go this activity again.

We had a spectacular time! Easy to book, easy to get on board, DELICIOUS crab and steak and ice cream ! Mai Tais are excellent! Gorgeous dancers and costumes! I loved the ukulele musician, he was wonderfully entertaining and kept everyone happy. He has a beautiful voice! Our pictures on the Star are unforgettable. This really made our last night in Hawaii memorable. Junior was our staff member and he was terrific. Thank you for the night of a lifetime!

I was able to organize, finalize & make changes for a group of 35 people along the way through Veltra, doing so from some 5,000 miles away from the venue! The Veltra process, from beginning to end went so smoothly & without problem that I had to pinch myself several times during it, just to make sure that it wasn't a dream! ANYONE wishing to make plans for a special & successful event shouldn't think twice about the success that will come in using Veltra!

Great time, great crew, stunning scenery. They don't overcrowd the boat so there is plenty of room to move around. The crew makes the evening entertaining by socializing and they take pictures on request.

Great views, plentiful tasty appetizers and drinks! knowledgeable crew that answers all your questions about anything 'Oahu' ! Our Sunday night sunset cruise had very few tourists so e could spread out, have the crew take pictures, lounge on the front nets, lots of drinks and great appetizers. We were looking for something unique to do with our parents (70+) on our last night of vacation and this was perfect. Leaves from beachside of Tropics restaurant in the Hilton Hawaiian Village, parking validated. Book now!

My partner & I, sister & brother in law had such a good fun time. The crew were young, energetic & so professional. Nothing was a problem, plus they were also great photographers. The food was delicious & lots of it & the drinks were plentiful. The catamaran was fun especially sitting at the front on the net with the water underneath you. When we arrived back at the pier our shoes were ready sitting in pairs, after they had been locked safely away in a box on the dock until our return. Oh yes & the sunset was beautiful.

We were pretty disappointed with this trip. Just not as organized as we had hoped. We've been on many different snorkel trips over the years and this is one of the most unorganized we've attended. Competing boats seem to pass out gear and explain rules and safety regulations on the way to the destination. Then, once anchored, we can get in the water. This boat waits until we are on anchor, then starts the slow unorganized process of handing out gear. Takes way too long!
Food was decent, but mixed drinks were not! The captain, although tried to be funny, was not for the most part. We tried to have a conversation with him and generally got one word answers. So, he really wasn't interested in talking with us. When we were on anchor, he seemed to be more interested in flying his own personal drone around the boat.
The crew was nice and helpful, the captain, not so much! The best part of the trip was the photographer. Really a terrific individual, very personal with the guest and generally took an interest in the guest.
Overall, I wouldn't use this boat again.

It was an incredibly wonderful time, watching the deep blue sea and sky gradually being dyed by the sunset while holding a glass of champagne! Among the staff, there were also Japanese people, and everyone was very friendly and made it enjoyable. It was my first time in Hawaii, but the scenery I saw on this cruise has become an unforgettable memory.
真っ青な海と空が、次第に夕陽に染まっていくのを、シャンパン片手にながめている、最高に素敵な時間でした❗
スタッフの方達の中に日本人の方もいらして、皆さんとても気さくで楽しませて下さいました。
初めてのハワイでしたが、このクルーズで見た景色は忘れられない思い出になりました。

The sunset cruise we set up on the final day of our trip was wonderful. It was a perfect way to wrap up our journey. Watching the scenery while reminiscing about our travels under the sunset was the best. There were a few spots with higher waves, but I think most people would be fine and not get seasick. I would definitely want to do this again.
8日目の最終日にセットアップしたサンセットクルーズ
旅の締めくくりにとてもいいクルーズです。
夕日をあびて旅を回想しながらゆっくり景色を眺めるの最高です。
ちょっと波が高いところもあるけれど、普通の人なら船酔いとかは大丈夫と思います。
これはまた乗りたいです。

At our next crew meeting, we have food and beverage training scheduled in addition to our usual safety training. We strive to always have complete customer satisfaction and we know that at times we may fall short, so we truly appreciate your input. When you visit O'ahu again, please call us directly and we would like to host you on our boat and we will be proud to show you a better tour as a result of your review.
