The sunset dinner cruise was quite crowded. Since I had reserved a 5-star experience, there wasn't much of a feeling of congestion when I arrived on the floor, and I was able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. The meal also progressed slowly, so many people went out to the deck to enjoy themselves along the way. While sipping on a Mai Tai and gazing at the sunset... I realized the sky was filled with stars. Fireworks erupted from Waikiki Beach, and the atmosphere on the boat reached its peak! After that, we returned to port while indulging in jazz. It turned out to be a wonderful day.
サンセットディナークルーズはかなりの混雑ぶり。5スターを予約したのでフロアに着くとそれほど混雑感は無く、ゆっくりと楽しめました。食事もかなりゆっくりと進むので、途中デッキに出て楽しんでいる方も大勢いました。サンセットを眺めながら、マイタイを飲みながら…気付くと満天の星空。ワイキキビーチから花火が上がり船内の盛り上がりも最高潮!その後、JAZZに酔いしれながら帰港。素敵な1日になりました。

We booked this cor the sunset and fireworks. Seating was packed and food was okay / ordinary, what you would expect from set menu for hundreds. Staff worked hard, tried to keep things moving. Sunset was almost missed due to service. Noisy entertainment. Fireworks were short and low key, and hard to see with packed walkways. We were some what disappointed overall and regreted not going on a smaller and cheaper vessel.

Five years ago, my family of three saw a pink sail catamaran yacht from a dinner cruise for the first time and decided that we would definitely take a ride the next time we came to Waikiki. However, it was postponed due to COVID-19. Now that my son's job hunting is over, we went on a trip just the two of us! It was an amazing experience. I want to share the beauty of the sunset cruise with more people in Japan. The jumping in was also fantastic. Thank you to the captain, the crew, and all the participants.
五年前、家族3人で初めてディナークルーズ船からピンクセールのカタマランヨットを見て次回、ワイキキに来たら必ず乗船すると、決めてましたが、コロナで伸び伸びになってましたが、息子の就活が終わって2人旅!
最高の体験が出来ました。もっと日本の皆にサンセットクルーズの良さを伝えたいです。
飛び込みも最高でした。キャプテン、クルーの皆んな、参加者の皆様ありがとうございました。

The sunset view was beautiful and the crew was nice, but when I booked a cocktail cruise, I wasn’t expecting a boat full of children. There was a group of over 30 that had around 15 children with them and they took up all of the seating. One spilled a sticky drink down my husband’s leg. I love children, but like I said, I wasn’t expecting it due to the advertisement of this being a cocktail cruise. I will read more carefully before I book a similar cruise in the future.

I have been to Hawaii many times, but this was a wonderful sunset cruise like I have never seen before. There were hardly any Japanese people, mostly folks from the mainland, but everyone, regardless of age, was excited, drinking, dancing, and swimming. It was a very enjoyable two hours.

The boat was a bit rocky.

The fireworks were amazing.
If the boat were bigger, maybe the rocking would be less.

It was my first time participating. I arrived before the meeting time, but the foreigners seemed to wait for the meeting time for up to 40 minutes longer than scheduled. The last arrivals didn't seem apologetic at all, so perhaps the departure time was delayed from the start. I thought it might be better to set the meeting time a bit later.
However, sailing was very enjoyable, and the view of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the blue sky from the sea was amazing. There was a time when those who wanted to swim could jump into the water after the engine was turned off, and they provided floats to wear, which looked fun.
There were few Japanese participants, and all announcements were in English, but it wasn't particularly inconvenient. I also saw turtles and large fish. After swimming, it seemed cold when getting back on the boat, so I thought it would be good to have a sweatshirt or hoodie since sailing continues until sunset. There is no place on the boat to change out of wet clothes.
The price was reasonable, and I was satisfied.
初めての参加でした。
集合時間前に行ったのですが、外国人の方達は集合時間が何時になってるのか予定集合時間より最大で40分は待ちました。最後に来た人達は申し訳なさそうな感じも無く普通でしたので、
最初から出航時間が遅かったのかもしれません。
なら、もう少し集合時間遅くしてもいいのでは?と思いました。
でも、セーリングはとても楽しくて海から見えるワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッドと青い空は最高でした。途中でエンジン止めて泳ぎたい人は海に飛び込んで泳ぐ時間があります、体に巻く浮きを貸してくれるので楽しそうでした。
日本人の参加は少なく、全て英語アナウンスですが、特に不自由はありません。
亀や大きな魚もみれました。
泳いだ後に船に上がった後は寒いみたいです、夕日が沈むまでセーリングは続くのでトレーナーパーカーとかがあったほうがいいかとおもいました。濡れた服を着替える場所は船上にはありません。
値段も休めですし満足です。

I participated with my best friend couple, making four of us. There were few Japanese people, which added to the exotic feel. Then, everyone jumped into the water off Waikiki! I can't swim well, but I jumped into the beautiful sea. I was nervous, but it was fun. Enjoying the swim and sunset had a different charm compared to a big boat, and I made great memories.
親友夫婦と4人で参加しました。日本人は少なく異国感も充分。するとワイキキの沖でなんと皆んな飛び込むではないですか!
自分はまともに泳げないけど綺麗な海に飛び込んで、焦ったけど楽しかった。
大きな船とは違う魅力でスイム&サンセットを満喫、いい思い出が出来ました。

I went on the 5-Star cruise. I made a reservation with the Celebration Plan (guaranteed window seat) and paid for it, but I was booked under the regular plan. While the manager was confirming my reservation, I couldn't eat the food in front of me for about 30 minutes after being seated. In the end, it turned out that the reservation from VELTRA to Star of Honolulu was under the regular plan, and I was treated as such until the end. I never expected something like this to happen. I'm very disappointed.
Also, it seems that the shuttle bus got caught in traffic, so by the time we arrived, dinner had already started, and other guests who arrived earlier were enjoying their meals.
I thought there might be a separate entrance for the 5-Star guests, but there wasn't anything like that. We all lined up at one entrance to board the ship.
The schedule mentioned that there would be a welcome reception by the captain on the exclusive deck on the top floor for 5-Star guests, but there was nothing of the sort. We were just guided to line up and proceed into the ship.
The food wasn't particularly delicious; it was average. It was mentioned that the meat could be cut with a fork, but it was more like something you could manage to cut with a knife.
I have been to Hawaii several times, and regarding the Hilton fireworks, I've seen them from various places, but sitting on the beach south of the Rainbow Tower is the best spot. Watching the fireworks from the cruise ship was an experience, but since it was from a distance, it lacked impact.
Additionally, guests from the lower deck were casually coming up the stairs to the 5-Star deck. There was a rope at the top of the stairs, but they seemed to know how to unhook it to get in and then rehook it. These were regular guests, not staff.
I was considering this might be my elderly mother's first and last overseas trip, so I regret spending a lot of money and time on this optional tour. I hope this review can be helpful to someone.
5スターで行ってきました。
セレブレーションプラン(窓際席確約)で予約し、その分の金額も支払いましたが、通常のプランで予約されており、あちらのマネージャーに予約したプランの確認をしてもらっている間、席についてからも30分ほど、目の前の料理を食べることができませんでした。
結局、VELTRAからスターオブホノルルへの予約が通常プランだったそうで、最後まで通常プランとしての扱いとなりました。
こんなことが起きるなんて、思いもしませんでした。非常に残念で仕方ありません。
また、恐らく送迎バスが渋滞に巻き込まれたせいで、私たちが到着した頃にはすでにディナーは始まっており、先に着いていた他のお客さんは食事を楽しんでました。
乗船する際に5スター用の入口でもあるのかなと思ってましたが、特にそのようなものはなく、大勢で列に並んで一か所の入り口から乗船しました。
5スターだと「最上階の専用デッキでキャプテンによるウェルカムレセプションがある」というスケジュールが記載されていますが、そんなものは一切ありません。列になって船内に進むように案内されました。
料理も、特別おいしいものではなかったですね。普通です。お肉がフォークで切れるという記載がありますが、ナイフでがんばって切れるぐらいの感じでした。
私自身は何度かハワイに行ったことがあり、ヒルトンの花火については、いろいろな場所から見てますが、レインボータワーの南側のビーチに座って見るのが一番ですね。
クルーズ船から花火を見れたことは一つの経験にはなりましたが、遠くから見ることになるので、全然迫力はないです。
それから、下の階のお客さんが、普通に5スターのデッキに階段を上ってきてました。一応階段を上がった先にロープがありますが、手慣れた感じでフックを外して入って、またフックをかけてました。スタッフの方ではなく、一般のお客さんです。
年老いた母を含めた、最初で最後の海外旅行だろうと考えてましたので、このようなオプショナルツアーに大金と時間を使ったことが残念で仕方がないです。
誰かの参考になればと思い、口コミを残します。

During this trip to Hawaii, I was really looking forward to taking a boat ride to see Waikiki from the sea, something I had wanted to do for a long time, but unfortunately, it didn't happen. The backup location was hard to find, and in the end, I was late and couldn't participate. I regret not allowing more time and wish I had joined a nearby tour since I was staying at a hotel in Waikiki.
今回のハワイ旅では、前々からやってみたいと思っていた船に乗って海からワイキキを見るという事をやりたくて楽しみにしていましたが、それが叶いませんでした。
というのもバックアップ場所が分かりづらく、結局時間にも遅れてしまった事で参加する事が出来ませんでした。
もっと余裕をもって行けば良かったという反省とともに、宿泊しているホテルがワイキキだったので、近くのツアーに参加すれば良かったと後悔しかありません。
We apologize for the difficulty in finding the location, which prevented you from participating. The check-in area is located across the street from the Prince Hotel, and we currently have a flag that says "PINK SAILS," which should make it a bit easier to find.

Ride to the ship was ok. Getting onboard was good. Overall food on deck 2, roast beef menu was subpar. Not good enough to want seconds. Wife and I felt this excursion was way too long. Especially being on the water got boring and we love the water. Sorry but the entertainment was that exiting. We were just counting down the minutes to get off the ship. The staff was nice and accommodating but the overall feeling of wanting to stay on the ship died off after the first hour on board.
