All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

I participated in early December. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so we couldn't enjoy the sunset sailing, but the night view of Honolulu from the sea was beautiful, and both the crew and passengers were cheerful, making for a fun time.

12月はじめに参加しました。
生憎の曇りで、サンセットセーリングとはいきませんでしたが、海上から見るホノルルの夜景は綺麗でしたし、クルーも乗船客も陽気で楽しい時間でした。

Observations:
- I thought the price was high for what was offered.
- The meeting place was hard to find.
- The food was at the level of school lunch menus.

気づき
・内容の割には料金が高いと思った。
・集合場所がわかりにくい。
・料理は学校給食メニューレベル。

Had an amazing time with Phillipe and Zach! They kept it relaxed, fun, and super funny! Such a fun cruise! Funny pictures with costumes, constant jokes, great music, and Zach the bartender was running around grabbing people drinks left and right! I hardly had to ever go back to the actual bar to grab a drink. Incredible time! Would do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks guys!

My sister and I booked this event to close our Hawaiian vacation. From the time we checked in to the time we walked off the boat, we enjoyed the friendliness of the staff working the event. Ian was a charismatic captain, and Alex was a very friendly bartender! Loved that this was a casual, barefoot experience. The views were great! Would absolutely recommend this event to friends and family.

A really enjoyable evening - even though the weather was awful! But you can't help that!
A great view of the Fireworks and the lights along Waikiki - awesome to view a different perspective!
Super friendly staff
Plenty of drinks - was a little worried at first - I was traveling with my daughter - there was a Hen's night and a Stag night on board - thought I may have booked the wrong type of trip - a booze boat - I was really relieved - everyone was having a great time, without being stupid!
Would highly recommend this activity - it was one of our hi lights!

As others have mentioned, there were no staff members who spoke Japanese, and most of the customers were English speakers. However, once you set sail, language doesn't matter. The pleasant breeze and the sunset scenery, along with the lively American atmosphere, allow you to have fun without worrying about the language barrier.

The snacks provided are just bags of chips, but drinks are all-you-can-drink. Also, you might wonder if there really is a restroom, but if you open a manhole-like cover, you'll find one. While I was inside, a drunk person playfully kept banging on the ceiling, but it was a fun moment.

他の方も書いていますが、スタッフに日本語を話せる方はいませんでしたし、お客さんも英語の方が過半でした。しかし、出航してしまえば言葉は関係ありません。気持ちの良い風とサンセットの風景。そして陽気なアメリカンの騒ぎっぷりで、言葉を気にせずに楽しく盛り上がれます。
おつまみはポテチの袋が配られるだけですが、飲み放題です。
また、トイレは本当にあるのか？という感じですが、マンホールみたいな蓋を開けるとトイレがあります。
入っていたら、酔っ払いにふざけて天井を叩かれまくりましたが、楽しいひと時でした。

We were the only Japanese people there, but once the drinks started flowing in the second half, we were able to have a great time regardless of nationality! Even though we couldn't understand the language, we took photos with the foreign ladies and interacted with the handsome crew. It was a lot of fun.

We had a wonderful time enjoying the elegant sunset and night views. It was colder in November than I expected, so a thicker jacket was necessary. I recommend wearing clothes that can be rolled up or shorter ones, as there is a possibility of getting wet when boarding.

日本人は私達だけでしたが、後半お酒も入ってくると国籍関係なく盛り上がれました！
言葉はわからなくても外人のお姉さん達と写真撮ったり、イケメンクルーにかまってもらったり。楽しかったです。
優雅に夕陽や夜景をみれてステキな時間でした。
１１月思ったより寒かったので厚めの上着必要でした。乗り込む時に濡れる可能性があるので、たくし上げられる服か、短めを履くことをお勧めします。

The sunset sailing while gently swaying with the waves was amazing! The drinks were all-you-can-drink, making it a comfortable experience! This was my third time using the service, and I look forward to it every time!

心地よく波に揺られながらサンセットセーリング最高でしたー！！ドリンクも飲み放題で快適に過ごせます！もお3回目の利用です(^^)毎回楽しみにリピートしてます！

I participated because I wanted to do something different from others on my first trip to Hawaii!
I heard that there would be fireworks on Friday night, and the night view from the sea was amazing, as were the fireworks!

It was a bit rainy, so it was cold, haha.
I forgot to bring a towel, so it's a good idea to have one!
Since it can be a bit chilly, I think a thick hoodie would be just right!

Also, there's an all-you-can-drink option!
It seems like everyone is given a Mai Tai at first, but you can ask the bartender for more drinks!
I was drinking beer, but there was also white wine available!

初めてのハワイで他の人たちと別なことがしたくて参加しました！
ちょうど金曜日の夜花火が見られるとのことで
海から見る夜景も最高、花火も最高でした！

少し雨が降っていたこともあり、寒かったですw
タオルを持って行くの忘れたのでタオルはあった方がいいですよ！
少し肌寒いので厚手のパーカーくらいがちょうどいいかと思います！

あと、お酒飲み放題です！
マイタイ？が最初みんなに配られる感じなんですが、
お酒作る人に言えば出てきます！
私はビールを飲んでましたが、
ほかに白ワインとかもありましたよ！

The sailing departure was at six o'clock, but it wasn't immediately followed by dinner. It was a buffet style; the taste was okay, and the variety was decent. There were many locals, and only two groups of Japanese. Of course, the announcements were only in English. The boat just wandered around Waikiki Beach. The actual fireworks started at 7:45, so it was boring until then. The boat was rocking, so I didn't want to drink too much, and I didn't eat much either. The fireworks lasted only about five minutes, just a star mine. I was disappointed because I had the impression that they would last much longer, like in Japan.

セーリングの出航は六時からでしたが、そのあとすぐディナーというほどではなく、バイキング形式、味はまあまあ、種類はそこそこ
現地の方が多く日本人は二組でした。もちろん英語での案内のみ
船はワイキキビーチをうろうろしているだけです。
実際の花火の始まりは７時４５分からなので、それまで退屈
船も揺れますから酒に酔うといけないし、食べ物もたくさん食べませんでした。花火の上がる時間は５分そこそこ、スターマインが上がるだけです。
日本では長い時間あがる感覚でいたのにがっかりでした。

The catamaran was almost full. There were few Japanese people, and since they are not good at English, I couldn't understand the captain's talk very well, but I enjoyed the cruise while drinking sparkling wine and beer. The sunset and the lights of Waikiki were beautiful. Be careful as the restrooms can get crowded towards the end of the cruise.

カタマランはほぼ満席？日本人は少なく英語が苦手なのでキャプテンの話など良くわかりませんがスパークリングワインやビールを飲んでクルーズを楽しみました。夕陽やワイキキの街灯りが綺麗で良かったです。クルーズ後半はトイレが込み合うので注意かも。

Recently, every time I come to Honolulu, I participate in the sunset cruise on the Mai Tai Catamaran. There are no staff who speak Japanese, and most of the customers are Westerners. Perhaps because of that, the atmosphere is lively and quite enjoyable. It's a yacht, but since it's a catamaran, I think it's stable and doesn't tilt.

最近ではホノルルに来る度にマイタイカタマランのサンセットクルーズに参加しています。日本語が話せるスタッフもいませんし、お客さんもほぼ欧米系です。そのお陰かノリも良くむしろ楽しいですね。ヨットですがカタマランなので傾く事もなく安定していると思います。

My husband and I booked the fireworks sail for our last night in Hawaii and it was a great way to end our trip. The music was right, the fireworks were a beautiful sight, and my cup of maitai was constantly filled by the shirtless bartender! We would definitely book this again when we come back and maybe bring a few friends with us next time. :)

Friendly staff, great service, great view, moved the boat around so every side had a great view

We chartered a catamaran for our office holiday party, and it was the perfect relaxing, fun, and unusual activity for a wonderful time! The two men who captained the boat and tended the bar did a wonderful job! We enjoyed the beauty of being out on the water with excellent beverage service (great maitais!) and nice waves splashing the kids who sat on the net. We would recommend it highly not just for office parties, but for any group. It's a wonderful icebreaker or memory maker activity! We have a lot of diversity of personalities in our office, but everyone had a great time!

There were few Japanese people, mostly foreigners, so just being on the boat felt exotic. The drinks were all-you-can-drink, and they also provided snacks. I was torn between a dinner cruise, but this one felt more like a resort experience. The rocking felt like an attraction, and depending on where you sit, you might get splashed by the waves, but that was also fun. The cruise was quite long, and by the time the sun was setting, everyone was singing together and having a great time. I wish I could speak a little more English. I will definitely ride again next time! I highly recommend it!

日本人は少なく、海外の人ばかりで船に乗るだけでも異国感。飲み物は飲み放題。スナックもくれました。ディナークルーズと迷ってましたが、こちらの方がリゾート感あります。揺れはアトラクションって感じで座る場所、波の大きさに濡れることありますがそれもまた楽しい。クルーズは結構長く日が沈む頃には、みんなで歌ったりとお客同士でワイワイ。もう少し英語話せたらよかったなぁ。絶対次も乗ります‼︎おススメです‼︎

We loved the view of fireworks over the HHW, and the Waikiki Beach skyline. After seeing the fireworks from shore, we wanted to take this trip on our return visit. It was worth it. The crew was fun and the mai tais were plentiful. Our only difficulty was finding the launch. Not being local, we weren't sure how to get to this spot. Street directions would have been helpful.

It was great. The best. I participated for the first time while staying at the Sheraton. Until now, I was just wondering what it was, but I happened to find it online and joined. It was very friendly and fun.

良かった。最高。シェラトンに泊まって初めて参加しました。今まであれなんかな?と見ていただけですが、ネットでたまたま見つけて参加しました。とてもフレンドリーで楽しかったです。

This was my eighth visit to Oahu, so I was looking for activities I hadn't participated in before, and I found this one. Joining was definitely the right choice! The night view while drinking a Mai Tai was amazing, and the excitement from the boat's sway added to the fun! It was a wonderful time where participants and the crew all enjoyed together. ★

オアフ島は8回目の訪問でしたので、これまでに参加したことのないアクティビティを探していて、たどり着きました。
参加して大正解！マイタイを飲みながらの夜景は最高で、船の揺れでも大盛り上がり！参加者とクルーが一緒に盛り上がる素敵な時間でした★

The crew was friendly and fun. Great time and great mai this! Totally recommend!

I have always wanted to ride the Mai Tai, which is popular among foreigners. You need to make a reservation to enjoy the sunset cruise. The staff is cheerful and makes the sunset experience enjoyable. I want to ride it every time.

外国人の多いマイタイ号いつか乗りたいと思っていました。サンセットは予約しないと乗れませんよ。スタッフも陽気で楽しくサンセット。毎回乗りたいと思います

I participated in cocktail sailing. The view at sunset is amazing. However, it’s cold, so please dress warmly. I enjoyed the rainbow, the sunset, and arriving at Diamond Head.

カクテルセーリング参加しまいました。夕暮れの時景色最高です。ただ寒いので、暖かくして参加くださいませ。虹と、夕日とダイヤモンドヘッド到着して堪能しました。

It was amazing.
I participated based on the experiences of others.

The view while feeling the sea breeze was fantastic, and the night view of Honolulu from the sea was very beautiful.
You can drink as much alcohol or soft drinks as you like, so no worries!
There are proper restrooms too, haha.

There are no Japanese people or Japanese staff, but everyone is cheerful and friendly, so those who can't speak English don't need to worry at all.

I’m definitely joining again next time!

最高でした。
他の方の体験談を参考に参加させて頂きました。

海風を浴びながら眺める景色もサイコーだし、海から眺めるホノルルの夜景もとても美しかったです。
アルコールやシフトドリンクを好きなだけ飲んでもご安心ください！
お手洗いもちゃんとあります 笑

日本人も日本人スタッフもいませんが、みんな陽気でフレンドリーなので、英語が話せない方も何も心配しないで大丈夫ですね

次回も参加決定です

This was my second time in Hawaii, and the view from the yacht was amazing. I took some motion sickness medication just in case, but I didn't feel sick at all and completed the schedule without any issues. There were only a few Japanese people, and I think most of the others were from English-speaking countries.

While enjoying a delicious Mai Tai, I thought how great it would be to talk with these people, which strongly motivated me to learn English.

人生2回目のハワイでしたが、ヨットから眺める景色が最高でした。一応酔い止めも飲んで行きましたが、全く酔う様子もなくスケジュールを終えました。日本人はチラホラ程度で殆どが英語圏の方たちだったと思います。
美味しいマイタイ飲みながらこの人たちと話せたらなぁっと英語学習のモチベーションにも強く影響を与えました。

This cruise was a fantastic way to end our holiday! The Staff were lovely and the boat was clean & comfortable. We had a great time :)

The sunset was great, the crew was great, and the Mai Tai was great! It was a tour that had all the right elements. I didn't get seasick on the boat, but I did get tipsy from the all-you-can-drink Mai Tai (laughs). It was really delicious Mai Tai. Cheers!!

サンセットよし、乗組員よし、マイタイよし！
三拍子そろったグッドなツアーでした。
船に酔うことはなかったけれど、飲み放題の
マイタイに酔ってしまいました（笑）。
ほんとに美味しいマイタイでした。乾杯!!

I was able to see a beautiful sunset.
It gets chilly when the sun goes down, and you might get wet, so a jacket and towel are essential.
When riding on the yacht, it's best to go barefoot, so I recommend wearing sandals.

きれいなサンセットが見られました。
日が沈むと肌寒くなるのと、濡れたりするので上着とタオル必須です。
ヨットに乗るとき裸足になるので、ビーにサンダルがおすすめです。

I arrived in Hawaii on Friday, so I participated to see the fireworks. Most of the attendees were foreigners, but there was music playing and the atmosphere was great!!

They also served non-alcoholic pineapple juice, which was nice!

I got to see the fireworks, and it became a wonderful memory (*^ω^*)

金曜にハワイに到着したので、花火をみるために参加しました。ほとんどが外国の方でしたが、音楽もかかって雰囲気もよかったです！！

お酒が入っていないパイナップルジュースも出してくれて、よかったです！

花火もみれて、いい思い出になりました(*^ω^*)

The staff were so friendly and accommodating. Very willing to take photos of you and provide information.

There were three groups of Japanese participants, and about 30 foreigners. The explanations before departure and on the boat were all in English, so I was a bit anxious and didn't understand well. However, the captain and guide spoke fluent Japanese. After explaining to the foreigners, he kindly provided various explanations to the Japanese guests, mixed with jokes. The fireworks were beautiful. The best spot is at the back of the boat. The food was also delicious.

日本人3組参加でした。他は外人30人位。出発前と、船の中の説明は、すべて英語だったので、良く分からなく、不安でしたが、なんと、船長兼ガイドが日本語ペラペラで、外人に説明後、丁寧に、日本人だけに、ジョーク交じりに、色々説明してくれました。花火綺麗です。ベスポジは船後部です。食事も美味しいです。
