Hilton Waikiki Beach Front Luau & Fireworks Show - Friday Night Exclusive!

It's more for the experience

Reviewed by: Alissa

We got the premium tickets and actually got sat front and center which was great for our kids (4, 6 & 8). That also meant though that one side of the table was blinded by the sun for the first part of the show until the sun dipped below the trees (small price to pay for front and center). We didn't realize that with the premium tickets even the kids got extra drink tickets that could be used for juice or alcohol. My kids were never going to drink that many juices so we used them to get a few extra Mai Tai for us...but word of advice if you wait for the server to get the drinks you will never be able to get through your tickets because they are split between so many tables so grab them from the bar yourself. The show was great my kids especially liked the fire dancers. The food was just ok but we expected that as it's hard to serve that many individual plates at once. The only thing my kids would eat was the shredded pork and fruit so if you have kids who are picky eaters make sure they eat a little something before hand.

2-Hour Moana Sailing Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Drink Included

Best experience in Hawaii with Moana Waikiki

Reviewed by: Liza

I am a widow and did this experience with my three sons - ages 24,23 and 15 .. might never happen again …as they grow older and probably have their own families .. wishing I could do it again with them.. fortunately, they enjoyed the sail and asked me when again (I had in my heart a leap of joy ) .. cause the sail was smooth and fun out the sea with lively music, some laughters when the water splashed towards us ( we were seated at the front right side of the boat) didn’t expect that to happen and got soaking wet, basking in the sun, watching the dolphins play (this was truly awesome !) and taking sunset photos. I highly recommend Moana Waikiki .. the crew was friendly and this pretty and amiable lady was going around asking if we need anything and volunteering to take photos of us - it was highly appreciated! We had so much fun! Lovely and beautiful memories to treasure!
Thank you Moana Waikiki Crew for making this experience a memorable one for us !

Sunset Sail

Reviewed by: Krenzer

First, I want to say how welcomed we felt when we boarded the catamaran. The crew was smiling, talking to all guests, and helped when needed! Once we got settled they explained the process, life jackets, how they serve, etc. The boat was immaculate! Seats for all with our own tables. The drinks were fabulous along with the appetizers. The crew played a variety of music and made our experience a memorable one. Of course, the view was gorgeous. I was in awe of the beautiful colors against the lava rocks. I would truly recommend this tour.

Ready to sail!

Reviewed by: User996431

Everything about this boat ride was perfect!! The drinks were great, the views were amazing, and the staff were so friendly. They had mai tais, pineapple whiskey, and other non alcoholic drinks. We sailed for 2 hours which was perfect. Also, this boat doesn’t dock anywhere so you’ll board right at the shore so keep in mind you’ll get wet when you board! 10/10 recommend for anyone who’s looking for a relaxing evening :)

Never Again

Reviewed by: Ms. Disappointed

I applaud the crew of young people, however they were too laid back & very unprofessional. “Dinner” was just a takeout tray of food. How am I expected to eat while I bob up and down on the ocean. Table, uhhh NO…The crew was more concerned with their good time & conversation. The ship was beautiful, the view was lovely but definitely not worth what I paid. I did the same sail for $50 minus the “dinner”.

Reviewed by: Freddie

This sunset cruise was by far one of the highlights of my trip. I was lucky enough to have an outstanding crew that not only operated the boat but severed as bartenders and entertainment. Famous Amos, Mitch, and Noah were all the life of the party and kept the energy going throughout the trip. The boat ride did get bumpy at some points but that was all part of the fun. Overall this tour gave a great view of not only the sunset but of downtown Waikiki. I would most certainly recommend taking this tour and come ready to party.

Not what we expected

Reviewed by: Kelli

We had a lot of issues finding the place we needed to check into the sail. The restaurant you need to go to is marked on Google maps but there is no street signs for it so it's very easy to miss. We drove past the alley you need to walk down twice. It's located in the busiest part of town and if you miss it, it takes about 10 minutes to loop back around due to the amount of traffic and one-way streets. After finding the alley, we realized the restaurant had no designated parking. We called the restaurant who informed us we would need to valet at the hotel out front which was a mess and about 15 cars backed up on the street. We were going to miss checking due to the nightmare that came with finding this place so we sent half our group on the sail, the other half stayed behind so our driver wouldn't be alone. They sold our remaining seats to walk ups and didn't refund our money. The sail itself is not as advertised and not appropriate for children. We were expecting a peaceful sunset cruise that was appropriate for children since we are allowed to bring them. While the ocean views were stunning, the sail is more of a party cruise with a bunch of drunk adults and very loud music. Overall, this excursion was a bust for our family.

Don’t waste your time!

Reviewed by: RAP

Overall disappointing. When I think “sunset cruise”, I was thinking something dressier, as were most of the passengers. Instead, we had to run through the surf to get onto the catamaran (no dock), getting wet and dirty in the process. The boat is leaky in the sense the water splashes through holes on the main deck, making you wet even if you’re not sitting on the edge of the boat. The “cocktails” consist of only two options: Mai Tais or beer, that’s it. The crew was pleasant, but over all, it was nothing like I expected.

Trip was great! The crew was very friendly and answered our random questions. I loved getting to sail for the majority of the time that we were on the water, and getting a view of Waikiki & Diamond Head from the water! We had a great view of sunset as well, and planes taking off from HNL. It was BYOB, but they also had drinks for sale on the boat ($5/drink or $20 bottomless). The boat had a decent number of passengers, but I don’t think it was sold out, so it didn’t feel too crowded. The attached photo is of the boat before we boarded and left the marina.

2-Hour Moana Sailing Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Drink Included

Great Crew, Wonderful Views

Reviewed by: Stephanie Moyse

This sunset cruise was nearly perfect! My family and I were able to book our experience in the same week we took the cruise, I felt it was priced quite fairly and the process was very easy. The website's description was very helpful and I appreciated having the option to purchase dinner if I so wanted to. I did not buy the dinner package but the other guests who did seemed quite happy with their meals, though there weren't tables to place your food on. If you do choose to get the dinner, eat it before you get out to the open waters as you and your food can get pretty wet from ocean spray depending on where you sit. If you don't want to get wet there's plenty of seats that stay dry, though the catamaran can fill with many guests so arrive early if you want the best seating options. Overall, my family and I loved our experience, my mother was a bit worried as the crew didn't discuss emergency protocol but I never felt like this was a concern. The 90 minute trip had excellent views, wasn't too rocky, and I liked being able to bring my own drinks or purchasing drinks from the crew. I would highly recommend this activity to couples, families with older children, or friend groups. If I ever return to Oahu I would thoroughly like to do this again!

Some of the great pictures I got while onboard!
The island looked amazing from this distance!
