All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

It was absolutely amazing.
It was a great way to wrap up our graduation trip with friends on the last day.
Unfortunately, it was a bit cloudy that day, but the pleasant atmosphere and the fun of the staff made me forget about that.
I definitely want to use this place again!

とにかく最高でした。
友達との卒業旅行最終日に、良い締めくくりになりました。
あいにくその日は曇り気味でしたが、そんなことは気にならないくらいの気持ちよさと、スタッフさんの楽しさでした。
是非また利用したいです！

We had a fantastic time. The crew were outstanding, very friendly and made the trip a lot of fun. They were approachable and took time to answer any questions we had.
Pretty close to being the highlight of our trip.
Would definitely do it again.

The drinks, sunset, and atmosphere were all amazing! We gathered at the beach adjacent to the hotel at 5 PM, and although we had to wait for about 30 minutes, the meeting spot was easy to find, and we could play on the beach during the wait, so it wasn't a problem at all. Once we got on the boat, even though I'm not very good at English, the staff crew and the other international guests were very friendly, and I felt a sense of unity! When I mentioned I was Japanese, the staff handed me explanations and the drink menu written in Japanese, which I appreciated. I definitely want to participate again when I come to Hawaii!

お酒もサンセットも雰囲気も最高でした！
夕方１７時にホテルに隣接したビーチに集合し、約３０分ほど待機時間がありましたが、集合場所もわかりやすかったし、待ち時間はビーチで遊んでも大丈夫なので、特に問題ありませんでした。
船に乗ってからは私はあまり英語が得意ではないのですが、スタッフクルーや同乗した異国の方がとてもフレンドリーで、一体感を味わえました！
日本人だと伝えると、スタッフの方が日本語で書かれた説明やお酒のメニューなどを渡してくれて、その気遣いも嬉しかったです。
またハワイに来た時も絶対に参加したいです！

I used the service in December. It was cloudy on the day, and it started to drizzle partway through, making it very, very cold. After reading the voucher carefully, I realized it mentioned bringing warm clothing, so it was our fault for not reading it well.

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the sunset beautifully, but I was able to feel cheerful and had a lot of fun. Drinking a Mai Tai while shivering on the boat is also a good memory. (laughs) If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would like to have a revenge experience!

12月に利用しました。当日は曇り＆途中から小雨が降ってきてしまい、とてもとても寒かったです。バウチャーをよく読んだら、持ち物に防寒具とかって書いてあったので、よく読まなかった自分たちが悪いのです。
サンセットは綺麗に見えずに残念でしたが、陽気な気分になれて楽しかったです。船上で震えながらマイタイを飲んだのも良い思い出。（笑）
またハワイに行く機会があったら、リベンジしたいなーと思います！

I participated this time on the recommendation of my boss. As I had heard, most of the people on board were foreigners, which made me a bit anxious at first. However, the Mai Tai I had on the boat was exquisite, and the scenery was so beautiful that I found myself thoroughly enjoying the experience. I think it's quite a bargain for such a fun time at this price. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate once more.

上司からの勧めで今回参加しました。
噂に聞いていた通り乗っているのは外国の方ばかりで最初は少し不安でしたが、船で飲むマイタイは絶品で、見える景色もとても綺麗で気づいたらすっかり楽しんでいました。
こんなに楽しくてこの値段はかなりお得だと思います。次回もハワイに行く機会がありましたら参加したいと思います。

On our last night in Hawaii, we wanted to create some memories, so we signed up for this. We had a specific place in mind for dinner, so we were looking for a plan that only included the cruise, and this one was perfect. The weather was great, and we were able to see a beautiful sunset. The staff was cheerful, and the atmosphere on the boat was warm. They kept making drinks for us right up until we arrived at the port, making for a wonderful experience that exceeded our expectations.

ハワイ最後の夜、何か思い出にと思って申し込み。
ディナーは別に行きたいところがあり、クルーズだけのところを探していたのでぴったりなプランでした。
天気も良く、素敵な夕日を見ることができました。
スタッフの方も陽気で船内は暖かい雰囲気。
港に着く寸前までお酒を作って頂き、期待以上の素敵な時間でした。

I would absolutely recommend this excursion! My husband and I had the best time. Breathtaking scenery, the staff was fun and made the whole experience enjoyable! If you have the opportunity, book this now!

The catamaran sunset cruise was amazing! Unlimited Mai Tais! The sunset was also fantastic! I want to go again!

カタマランのサンセットクルーズ最高でした！マイタイ飲み放題！サンセットも最高でした！また行きたいです！

Last time, it was a wonderful sailing experience, so this time I brought my elderly mother and aunt along. It seems like they both really enjoyed it, which is great!!! I plan to repeat it again...

前回、とても素敵なセーリングだったので　今回、年配の母と叔母を連れて
行きました。2人とも大変楽しんでくれたみたいで良かったです！！！
又　リピート予定です。。。

Best cruise!! So much fun, great lads creating such a great atmosphere, definitely one of our highlights of Waikiki! We were lucky enough to see whales also! I highly recommend this sunset cruise to anyone who wants to party and meet like minded fun seeking folks!!

It was amazing.
I even saw whales.
With a little help from alcohol, I made friends with foreigners.
The sunset was the best.
The scenery and sense of openness were completely better than the cruise.
I will definitely use it again.

最高でした。
クジラもみえました。
お酒の力も借りて外国の方とも仲良くなりました。
サンセット最高でした。
クルーズよりも景色と開放感は完全に上でした。
また必ず利用します。

Not only was it pleasant to be on the boat, but the warm guidance and welcome from the staff made me feel at ease, making it the most enjoyable experience of my trip.

船に乗ることが気持ちいいだけでなく、スタッフの皆さんの暖かい案内とお迎えが安心できて、旅の中で一番楽しい体験となりました。

The weather wasn't very good, and we couldn't see the sunset. The boat was rocking, and many people got seasick.

天気があまり良くなく、サンセットは見れませんでした。船が揺れてしまって、船酔いする人が多かったです。

We had a great time on the sunset cruise, we got some awesome photos, met really cool people and did something we wouldn't normally do!
Only tips I would give is to go to the toilet first (the one on board is cramped and it can get bumpy, so more room for unlimited drinks) and make sure you check the meeting location carefully first because there's 2 Outrigger hotels and that confused us alot.

I was struggling to find a birthday gift for my husband which coincidentally falls on Valentine’s Day. As we were traveling to Oahu the next week form Australia I purchased 2 tickets for the Sunset Cocktail Cruise online, printed them and put them in his birthday card. WOW! What a great success that was, we had a wonderful time.
Weather was perfect, service and cocktail supply was 4 star and I would recommend this Cruise to all. The captain and his mate were attentive and entertaining, we were lucky enough to see whales in their natural habitat along with the magical sunset we were promised.
This was my 8th trip to Waikiki but I had never been on this Catamaran Cruise previously. We would definitely go again.
It was so easy to purchase online, prepay and print the receipt it made the perfect gift from the other side of the Pacific. Mahalo.

There was absolutely no Japanese guide, and I could only understand a little of what was being said, but that doesn't really matter. Even without words, it's okay. When everyone sang the birthday song for the cute girl, it was the best.

日本語ガイドなんて一切なく、なーにいってるのか、ちょっとしかわからなかったけど、そんなこの、どうでもいい。言葉なくても、大丈夫。かわいい女の子のお誕生日のお歌を全員で歌ったときは、最高でした。

We participated as a family of three (with a 6-year-old son). There are many reviews mentioning a high percentage of Westerners, but due to the timing, there were also a lot of Asians participating. The Mai Tais they served were very delicious. When our cups were empty, they would ask if we wanted a refill, and the staff's response was great. Each person also received a bag of snacks. We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset was beautiful. If we go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate again.

家族3人（息子6歳）で参加しました。欧米人率が高いという口コミが多いですが、時期もあってアジア人もたくさん参加していました。配られるマイタイがとても美味しかったです。コップが空になっているとお代わりを聞いてくれたり、スタッフの方の対応もいいです。スナックも一人一袋もらえます。天気に恵まれサンセットも綺麗でした。またハワイに行くことがあれば参加したいです。

The sunset was really beautiful.

However, when getting on and off, your clothes get wet! You have to be prepared to get into the water up to your knees, or it can be quite a hassle... My 5-year-old son fell into the sea when getting off and got completely soaked! He was rescued by a staff member! There are no restrooms, so be careful not to drink too much! They make sure to leave only after sunset, so you can definitely enjoy the sunset.

とっても夕日はきれいでした

ただ、乗り降りするとき、服がぬれる！
膝ぐらいまでは海に入るのを覚悟でいかないと大変…
5歳の息子は降りる時、海にはまり、びしょびしょ！お兄さんに救助されてました！
トイレはないので飲み過ぎ注意！
ちゃんと、日の入後しか帰らないのでバッチリサンセットは見れます

Since I participated during the rainy season, it couldn't be helped, but it was cold and difficult due to the rain. A raincoat or parka is absolutely necessary.

However, the captain and staff were very considerate, and the Mai Tai we had on board was delicious. They also generously served champagne. It was tasty.

On the way back, we were lucky to see the sunset from the western horizon. It was moving. I definitely want to participate again when the weather is nice.

雨季の時期に参加をしたので仕方がないですが雨で寒く大変でした。
カッパやパーカーは絶対に必要です。

ただ、船長は始めスタッフに皆さんの気遣いや船上で飲むマイタイは旨いです。シャンパンも大判振る舞いで出してくれました。
美味しかったですよ。
帰りがけに西の水平線からサンセットがラッキーに見えました。
感動しました。
また天気の良い時に是非参加したいですね。

Great crew, lots of drinks, awesome photo opportunities of the sunset and Waikiki. We even saw a whale.

You can see a different view of the Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head from the sea. Enjoying a toast while watching the sunset can be an amazing experience, especially if the weather is nice. The staff varies each time, and their service can depend on their personality, so it can be hit or miss. It's a bit disappointing that the background music isn't Hawaiian, but rather upbeat rock that the staff prefers.

海からワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドのいつもとは違った風景が見られる
サンセットを見ながら乾杯が出来、お天気に恵まれると最高の体験になる
スタッフは毎回違い、対応ぶりはその人柄に左右されるので当たり外れがある
ＢＧＭがハワイアンでなく、スタッフの好みのノリノリロックだったりするのが残念

There were about 40 people on the tour, including two groups of us (four people). The yacht hardly swayed, so I don't think there's any worry about seasickness. Cocktails were poured from a large bottle, and with the excitement, I ended up having three refills. We even spotted whales offshore, and the sunset was amazing. I also made friends with a family of four from Australia. The two hours flew by. I definitely want to participate again next time.

日本人は私たち含め2組（4人）計40人ぐらいのツアーでした。ヨットの揺れはほとんどなく、船酔いの心配はいらないと思います。大きなボトルからカクテルがそそがれ、盛り上がりとともに3杯もお替りしてしまいました。クジラも沖に見えサンセットも最高でした。オーストラリアの4人家族とも仲良くなりました。あっという間の2時間でした。次回もぜひ参加したい。

I participated thinking it would be a Valentine's gift. As others mentioned, there were many foreign participants (mostly from Europe and America), and there were fewer Asians, but I actually enjoyed the overseas atmosphere even more because of that.

All the explanations were in English, but I had no trouble at all. The captain and staff were very friendly, making jokes to entertain the guests and engaging in conversation, creating a very welcoming atmosphere!

On the day of the tour, it was unusually rainy in Hawaii, and with strong winds, we could hardly see the sunset, which is the highlight of the tour. The waves were a bit high, so some guests who were not good on boats felt unwell. (The staff's response at that time was quick and left a good impression.) I’m not very good on boats either, but I managed to be okay. In the end, just as the sun was setting, the clouds parted slightly, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset, which was very moving. It was a memorable moment.

You can take wonderful photos on the boat and enjoy the scenery, so I recommend this for those looking for a gift or a memorable experience like I was!

バレンタインのプレゼントに…と思って参加しました。他の方が言っていた通り、外国の方の参加率が多く（しかも欧米の方が多い）、アジア人は少なめではありますが、逆にその方が私は海外気分をより味わえて良かったです。
説明も全て英語でしたが、困ることはありませんでした。キャプテン、スタッフの方がとても気さくな方なので、お客さんをジョークで笑わせたり、一緒に話をしたりして、とてもフレンドリーな雰囲気でした！
当日はハワイ では珍しく一日中雨で、風も強かったため、ツアーの醍醐味であるサンセットがほとんど見られず、波も少し高かったので、船に弱い方が体調を崩されてました。（その時のスタッフの対応は迅速で好印象でした。）私もあまり船は得意ではないのですが、何とか大丈夫でした。最後、本当に陽が落ちる時、わずかに雲が切れてくれて、とても綺麗な夕日を見ることが出来、とても感動しました。思い出に残るワンシーンでした。
船上でステキな写真も撮れるし、景色も見られるし、私のようにプレゼントや何かの記念になるオプションを探している方にオススメです！

The staff really got everyone excited, and although there were no other Japanese people besides us, we had a great time with the other passengers (mostly Westerners)!

It was quite cold, so I wish I had dressed warmly for the event.

スタッフが、とても盛り上げてくれて、日本人は私達以外見当たらなかったけど、他の同乗者(殆ど欧米人)とも楽しく過ごせて、良かった！

結構寒かったので、しっかり防寒して参加すれば良かった。

A girls' trip with a friend.
We wanted to see the sunset in Hawaii, so we booked a sunset cruise.
It was great to spend a wonderful time enjoying drinks and good music.

友人と二人で女子旅
ハワイの夕日を見たくて、サンセットクルーズを予約しました。
お酒を飲みながら、音楽もいい感じで、とても素敵な時間を過ごす事が出来て良かったです。

Cruising the night sea while drinking Mai Tais with everyone!
I was very satisfied to see the night view of Waikiki and the fireworks from Hilton!
I think the stars are beautiful on clear days!
The day I participated was a bit cloudy, but even so, the stars were beautifully visible through the gaps in the clouds.

However, the boat was quite rocky, and I got a little seasick.
I think those who are prone to motion sickness should take some medication.

みんなでマイタイを飲みながら夜の海をクルージング！
ワイキキの夜景とヒルトンの花火を見ることができ、大満足でした！
天気の良い日は星も綺麗だと思います！
私が参加した日は少し曇りでしたが、
それでも雲の隙間から星が綺麗に見えました。

しかし、船の揺れが強く少し船酔いしてしまいました。
酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲まれた方がいいと思います。

The captain told us, and we were able to see the whale's tail perfectly! There was no rocking, and the wind felt really nice.

船長さんが教えてくれて、クジラのしっぽをバッチリ見ることができました！揺れもなくて、風がとても気持ち良かったです。

The crew on this sunset sail was so fun an energetic. Boat was beautiful and was definitely a must do!

I participated at the beginning of February. I had heard that it would be cold on the sea, but although there was some wind, it wasn't that cold. The boat rocked a bit, but it wasn't enough to make me feel seasick, and my mother, who is in her 80s, was very happy. The crew also asked about drinks and made the experience enjoyable. I would like to participate again.

２月始めに参加しました。海の上は、寒いと聞いていましたが、風はありましたが、それほど寒くなかった。船も揺れましたが、酔うほどではなく、８０台の母もたいへん喜んでくれました。
乗員の方も、飲み物などを聞いてくれて、楽しく乗れました。
また、参加したいです。

The number of passengers is about 40 to 50, mostly foreigners. When we boarded, there were only three groups of Japanese, including us.

All explanations and announcements after boarding are in English, but even for someone like me who struggles with English, I could somewhat grasp the atmosphere and understood that they were explaining the ship's features and safety instructions with a bit of humor.

After departure, we had about two hours of free time to enjoy meals and drinks, take in the scenery, and take photos. Initially, many people focused on getting food and ordering drinks, but after a while, the atmosphere on the ship settled down. The staff came around to take drink orders, took photos, and later brought around desserts. As we approached the time for fireworks, the staff provided guidance (all in English), and everyone moved to the deck to enjoy the fireworks from prime spots.

After the fireworks ended, we returned to the dock, marking the end of the dinner sailing.

As noted in the guidelines, "the dress code is casual," which made me wonder how casual it really was. I think wearing a T-shirt, shorts, and sandals is perfectly fine. As mentioned in other people's experiences, you need to take off your shoes before boarding. In reality, you remove your shoes on land and place them in a large basket, then walk a little on asphalt to board the ship. Most people took off their socks when removing their shoes, so I recommend wearing sandals from the start. Also, since shoes are placed directly in the basket without bags, if you're concerned, it might be best to avoid expensive or brand-name shoes.

Regarding the food, it was a buffet as listed on the menu. The ship swayed quite a bit, so I couldn't eat a full meal and ended up just having light snacks. For drinks, each person received two alcohol tickets, but honestly, it felt like you could drink as much as you wanted (though this might have only been the case on the day we participated).

Depending on the weather, the ship can sway quite a lot due to being on the sea. If you're worried at all, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. I tend to get motion sickness easily, so I took medication before boarding. To avoid seasickness, I kept my meal light, opted for soft drinks, and thanks to the medication, I was able to enjoy the entire experience without feeling sick.

Overall, true to the tour's name, I was able to enjoy the sunset and fireworks while feeling the pleasant breeze on the sea, creating wonderful memories. The staff were friendly and very nice. However, considering the atmosphere on the ship and the variety of food, I think the price is quite high. Honestly, I found myself justifying the cost with reasons like "it's a family trip" or "we're in Hawaii," trying to convince myself that the price was reasonable.

乗船人数はだいたい40～50名程度でほとんどが外国人の方です。私たちが乗船したときは、私たちを含め日本人は3組でした。
乗船後の説明・案内等は全て英語ですが、英語が苦手な私でもなんとなく雰囲気で船内の説明や注意事項を冗談交じりで説明しているんだなぁということがわかりました。
出発後は、食事やドリンクを受け取り食事をしたり、景色を眺めたり、写真を撮ったり、2時間くらい自由な時間を過ごす感じです。最初は食事を取りに行く方やドリンクを注文しに行く方が集中しますが、少し時間が経つと船内の中が落ち着き、スタッフの方がドリンクの注文を聞いてまわってくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたり、後半にはデザートを持ってまわってくれました。出発から2時間くらいが経って花火の時間が近づくとスタッフの方が案内をしてくれ（全て英語です）、全員デッキへ移動して特等席で花火を見ることが出来ます。
花火終了後は乗り場まで戻り、ディナーセーリング終了という流れです。

ご注意・ご案内の欄にも記載ある通り、“ドレスコードはカジュアルです”となっているため、どの程度のカジュアルなのかとても悩みましたが、Ｔシャツ・短パン・サンダル等のラフな格好で問題ないと思います。他の方々の体験談にも記載のとおり、船内は靴を脱いで乗船となります。実際は、船を乗る前に、陸のところで靴を脱ぎ大きなカゴみたいなところに靴を入れて、船のところまでアスファルトの上を少し歩き、乗船します。靴下等を履いている場合は、靴を脱ぐ際に一緒に靴下を脱いでいる方がほとんどでしたので、最初からサンダルで行くことをお勧めします。また、靴は袋等に入れることなくカゴの中にそのまま入れるため、もし気になる方がいれば高級な靴やブランド靴は控えたほうが良いかと思います。

料理については、メニューに記載されている内容のビュッフェでした。船が大変揺れますので、私はしっかり食事を取ることはできず、おつまみのような軽食を食べるのみになってしまいました。
ドリンクについては、アルコールチケット1人2枚までもらえますが、正直あまり関係なく何杯でも飲めるような感じでした。（私たちが参加した日だけかもしれませんが）

天候にもよると思いますが、海の上のため、船はかなり揺れます。少しでも心配な方は酔い止め薬を飲むことをお勧めします。私は乗り物酔いをしやすいため、乗船前に薬を飲んでから参加しました。船酔いだけは避けたかったため、食事も軽めに済ませ、ドリンクもソフトドリンクにし、薬を飲んだかいもあり（？）、船酔いすることなく最後まで楽しめました。

全体を通して、ツアー名通り、海の上で心地よい風を感じながらサンセットと花火鑑賞を楽しむことができ、良い思い出となりました。スタッフの方々は気さくでとても良い方ばかりです。
ただ、それにしても船内の感じや料理の種類等からすると値段が高すぎるかと思います。“家族旅行だから”“せっかくハワイまで行ったから”等の理由を無理やりつけて、この値段で納得するようにしているのが正直なところです。
