All Reviews for Casual Cruises

Family had a blast. Crew was great. Very interactive.

JJ and his crew were professional and fun! I’d recommend this boat to anyone that is looking for a good time and a beautiful sunset. No Karen’s allowed!

The crew of the Mana Kai is so welcoming. It’s a fun experience and a really great deal. Our trip wouldn’t have been nearly as fantastic if not for this experience. And I’m not just saying that because we got to see whales! Highly recommend.

The service was friendly, and the experience was well worth it. Would definitely do again!

I’ve been visiting Hawaii every year for the past 10 years and finally got around to checking out a sunset sail. Manu Kai exceeded all my expectations. The staff was great and the boat itself was spacious and comfortable. Check-in had some hiccups but they were still able to start the cruise as scheduled.

The cruise included 3 drinks(Mai tai and it was tasty!) and played great music. We got lucky and had a boat with a younger crowd so it was a party the whole time! If you’re looking for an activity during your stay, I highly recommend this place.

So much fun!! My friends and I had so much fun, the crew was super cool and helpful- I have recommended this boat to many people and everyone is extremely happy with the service. Great sunset and views of Waikiki strip. Best activity on island, we even saw whales

Very relaxing, and beautiful sunset.
Staff was awesome and very attentive

Cruise was outstanding. Crew was responsive to all of us and showed us a good time. Drinks were good and plentiful. Sunset was beautiful and made us all happy we made this cruise.

Had so much fun!! Noah and Alec were great on board and kept the fun up!

They have a great crew very attentive and great Mai Tais would definitely do it again.

This is my second time doing this sunset cruise, and it was just as great as the first! Mana Kai was getting worked on, so they put us on a different, more luxurious catamaran and we had zero complaints. Would do it all over again, once again!

Loved their afternoon sail that we came back another time for the sunset sail! This boat is a beach catamaran in between the Sheraton Waikiki and Halekulani hotel. The crew was really friendly and we all had so much fun! Would recommend!

To be fair, the weather played a part in my review but even if it had been perfect, I wouldn't have been impressed. It was raining prior to our departure and when I asked the people operating the boat if they were still going to sail, they said yes as long as it didn't rain harder. I asked if we'd even see a sunset since it was cloudy and they weren't sure. We boarded the boat which was wet from the rain and dirty from people tracking sand into it. The boat was pretty small and very crowded, they indicated they had a full cruise that night and that was an understatement. We could barely find a place to sit, and again, everything was wet so that wasn't great. It started raining again before we departed so our family made the decision to get off the boat and not go on the sail. The people operating the boat simply said "hopefully you come back again" when we informed them we were leaving. I called to inquire about a refund and left a VM but never received a call back. I sent an email and inquired but was told that the cruise did go out that night so a refund was not possible even though it was cloudy and there was no sunset. I understand the refund policy and agreed to it when I booked so they certainly had the right to keep our money but all in all, I just think it was pretty poor customer service and as stated above, even if the weather had been perfect, the cruise itself left a lot to be desired.

Most fun I have had in awhile! A great time! Even saw 4 whales!

It was truly a once in a lifetime experience! The sunset, views, drinks, & everything was amazing. Junior and his whole crew were the best and made our experience 1000x better! Book this now! You won't regret it!!!

The staff was honestly amazing and very attentive! Had soo much fun for my birthday. Would recommend to anyone who comes to Hawai’i.

Thank you for making our trip to Hawaii a memorable one.

the boat ride was fun, the view was amazing, the crew was the best!

The crew made it so fun. We had kids and adults and it was appropriate for everyone!

We had a great time on the sunset cruise! It was a beautiful night to be out on the water and the staff were very kind.

If you are looking for a sunset cruise, choose this one. My family (all adults) had a blast! We loved that this was a smaller catamaran. Crew is fabulous & the music was great. Definitely would go again.

We had an awesome time! The crew was very friendly and helpful. They made some wicked drinks too! We will definitely do this cruise again when our family and friends visit again next time.

This was an amazing experience! All the staff members were amazing and attentive! If you’re looking for thrill get front row seats in the splash zone (the front of the boat). You will not be disappointed. The drinks were spot on, the music was great and the view was beautiful! 10/10 recommended!

From the moment you step on the pier the staff of Spirit of Aloha was upbeat and fun! We felt welcome and safe but new we were in for a good time. The drinks were simple but tasty and they didn't skimp. The food that was included could have been a little better, simple chicken breast sandwiches on rolls but you're there for a boat ride and booze! Checking in could have also been a little more organized. Overall I definitely recommend this outing on anyone's visit to the island!
A few of the families had a hard time managing their kids so one suggestion I might give to Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise is hosting at least one adults only, 21+ cruise.

The Tour was so much fun and I will definitely do it again!

This evening cruise was a great experience and we had so much fun! Highly recommend!

It was such an enjoyable sunset cruise. The crew were so great and kind and FUN.

The crew was amazing, drinks were perfect and flowing, and the cruise itself was beautiful, we lucked out with a great sunset.

Way to many people to really enjoy. Bouncing against everyone and the toilet didn’t work. Staff was great though. Kept everyone with drinks in hand and spirits high.

Super fun cruise and nice views over the water and waikiki
