Ash Scattering Memorial Ceremony Sail - Manu Kai Catamaran Private Charter
Celebration of Life for Captain Charlene J.
Reviewed by: Jaudon Ohana
Wonderful experience from the ease of booking online the 90-minute Manu Kai Catamaran private charter for my sister, Captain Charlene J.’s Ash Scattering Memorial to the end. Awesome crew, Aiden, Zach, and Brandon with instructions and accommodations. Hawaii was our sister’s second home and to commemorate her with our family made it so special. Mahalo nui loa 🤙🏼🌺

4-Hour Ohana Deluxe Waikiki Private Yacht Charter Experience with Hot Tub
Great trip, great value
Reviewed by: Justin
The trip and staff were wonderful, we had a great time, we snorkelled, fished, and sat in the hot tub. It was cheaper for a family of three than going on separate fishing and snorkelling trips and it was private!
Mahalo for your kind words! We're delighted to hear you had a wonderful time and enjoyed all the activities, from snorkeling and fishing to relaxing in the hot tub. It's fantastic that you found the experience both fun and value friendly for your ohana. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for more memorable adventures in the future! Aloha and a hui hou!

Amazing !!!! Our experience was so easy working with the entire staff and crew.

4-Hour Ohana Deluxe Waikiki Private Yacht Charter Experience with Hot Tub
A great sail along the coast of Honolulu
Reviewed by: Famjam
Our family (my wife, myself, our 3 sons and 2 daughters in law) had a great cruise on this private yacht. The crew was outstanding and looked after our every need. We cruised and then stopped for an hour long swim. We enjoyed a few Mai Tai's and really loved the hot tub. Overall a great experience which we would highly recommend.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled you and your family enjoyed the cruise, the crew's service, and the hot tub. Your recommendation means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Private Honolulu Sunset Cruise - Oahu Boat Rental by Pau Hana Yacht Charters
The best sunset experience!
Reviewed by: S. Engelhardt
When looking at activities for our honeymoon, we were definitely looking for an on the water experience. There are lots of options in regards to sunset or fireworks(every friday) but most of them seemed to include having to be on a boat with many other families. While we are not opposed to spending time with strangers and getting to meet people, we really wanted to have a "next level" experience where we had pictures to share and memories to make.
Pau Hana sailing delivered on every single level. Captain Austin made sure our experience was one to remember. He helped us take pictures and was an absolute gem to spend two hours with.
Considering the pricing to be on our own private charter was only slightly more than being on one with tons of other families, there was absolutely no downside. I cannot recommend Pau hana sailing enough.
When we come back for an anniversary we will absolutely be booking again. Mahalo!
Yay, yay, yay! Iʻm so glad to hear you had the best best time and mahalo for such a wonderful review. We are so happy that we can provide this opportunity for people coming to visit Oahu. Congrats newlyweds! We hope we have the opportunity to host you for your 1-yr. A hui hou! Mariah

大満足のプライベートクルーズ
Reviewed by: なぁちゃん
親子3世代9名の家族旅行でチャーターしました。
2時間コースで申し込みましたが、船上でのんびりしたり食事をすることができ、丁度良い時間でした。
ただ、船上での食事を長めにとる場合は、もう少し長いコースの方がよいかもしれません。
テイクアウトした食事や飲み物を持参して乗り込みましたが、カトラリー類は十分用意されていましたし、冷たい飲料水の提供もあり助かりました。
クーラーボックスも設置されているので、飲み物やフルーツなどは冷やしておくこともできます。
トイレは2か所ありました。
ベビーカーも積み込むことができました。
使用してはいませんが、電子レンジ(オーブン?!)もありました。
船上からはワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見ることができます。
特に屋外で寝転がりながらパノラマビューを見ながら過ごす時間は最高でした!
船は出発時刻の15分くらい前に桟橋にやってきました。
桟橋付近にはターミナルのような待つ場所がないので、あまり早めに行かない方がいいかもしれません。
Mahalo for such a nice review! It looks like you had a beautiful day out on the water. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo, Mariah

The boat crew was extremely helpful and nice. My group of friends and I had a great time hanging out on the boat and watching the sunset. I would recommend booking a private catamaran like this one if you have a larger group and you want a more intimate setting. Will definitely do this again the next time I'm in Hawaii!

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & Private Speed Boat Rental
Magical sandbar tour
Reviewed by: Maria L
We got the private boat and did the sandbar tour & I can’t recommend this enough! We played at the sandbar, toured the waters and got to see turtles & manta rays! Captain Jeff was helpful, fun & informative, the snacks were tasty and the boat was clean and in great condition. Do this tour!! You won’t regret it! It was the highlight of our trip and the best excursion I have ever done in Hawaii! My husband enjoyed it so much he wanted to do it again but we couldn’t book during the rest of our stay because they were sold out!.
Thank you for choosing Captain Bruce. It is amazing to know that the customer wanted to join our tour again during the stay. Your words made our day! We appreciated your recommendation and highlighting our Captain Jeff!
We're sorry we couldn't accommodate another tour during your stay due to high demand. We hope to welcome you back to Hawaii and on board our tours again in the future.
Aloha and A hui hou :)

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & Private Speed Boat Rental
Excellent choice
Reviewed by: T. Le
My family and I (2 adults, 2 children) had a great time exploring the sandbar and reef area with our captain/tour guide. We learned a lot about the history of the sandbar as well as got to enjoy the water and sandbar area. We got lucky with the weather since it rained earlier in the day. The provided snacks and musubis were excellent. We were sad when it ended, but brought back many memories.
Thank you so much for joining our tour and taking the time to write such a fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that your family, including your children, had a great time exploring the sandbar and reef with us. We love sharing our knowledge of Hawaii waters, and we're glad you enjoyed learning about the sandbar.
We're happy the provided snacks and musubis were a hit :)
We're so grateful that we could be a part of your wonderful memories, and we hope to welcome you on board again soon! A hui hou!

Best possible send off
Reviewed by: Lisa W
The captain (Chris) and crew (Athena, Jeff, and Beau) were outstanding - so kind and laid back, very helpful in selecting a spot to send off my parents' ashes. The catamaran was beautiful and a lovely ride - we even got to do a little whale watching while we were out. It was fantastic to be able to include so many family members on the cruise - plenty of room. The waters were calm and clear, it was a perfect day and perfect way to say goodbye.

4-Hour Ohana Deluxe Waikiki Private Yacht Charter Experience with Hot Tub
Fun boat for friends!
Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii
Absolutely LOVED this trip!! We did the 11am-3pm time block and it was perfect. The inside cabin was also air-conditioned. And, yes, the hot tub was perfect too!
We brought our own snacks and drinks since we knew it was a longer 4-hour trip. Snorkel equipment was included for those of us that wanted to snorkel.
The boat was HUGE (74ft!) so we had plenty of space. We brought our own smaller speaker which was great for lounging on the bow of the boat.
