All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

After work, I headed straight to Hawaii with three friends. After arriving, we slept for about three hours and then participated in a cruise. Unfortunately, all three of us got severely seasick, and we couldn't enjoy the scenery at all.

Since you will be on the boat for quite a long time, I think it would be better to take your time to adjust your condition before participating, rather than going on the day you arrive. I also got the impression that there were hardly any Japanese people there.

仕事帰りその足で友人3人とハワイ旅行へ向かいました。
到着後３時間ほど寝て、こちらのクルーズに参加しました。
結果は３人とも激しく船酔いしてしまい、景色どころではなく終わってしまいました。

結構長い時間乗り続けることになるので、到着した日よりもゆっくりコンディションを整えてから参加されたほうが楽しめると思います。
日本人の方はほとんどいなかった印象です。

fun time! we even saw Whales ! Even though it was cloudy and we saw no sunset we had such a great time we forgot about it!

The boat was quite rocky and the wind was cold, but the sunset was breathtaking! I really felt like I was in the great outdoors.

To be honest, the sunset was just average, but the dessert was delicious.

After finishing dinner, there was quite a long wait until the fireworks, but we ended on a high note with the fireworks! My 80-year-old mother was also very happy.

船は結構揺れて風も冷たかったですが、夕陽は圧巻でした！
大自然の中にいるなぁという感じです。
夕陽は正直、普通でしたが、デザートは美味しかったです。

夕食を食べ終え、花火まですごく時間が空いてしまうのですが、最後に花火で盛り上がりました！
80歳の母も喜んでくれました。

Good time, reasonably priced, not much on the varity of drinks

We had an awesome moment having time with friends with a cocktail in front of the sunset. I will do it again in my next trip in waikiki, for sure!

We used this for a company trip with a total of 23 people. I think it was a great value cruise with a beautiful sunset and unlimited drinks. We were the only Japanese guests, and we enjoyed communicating with the international guests. However, a few people got seasick, which made for a tough time, and I regret that. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take some medication in advance.

総勢23名の社員旅行で利用しました。綺麗なサンセットとドリンクも飲み放題でとってもお得なクルージングだと思います。日本人客は私たちしかおらず、海外の方とコミュニケーションをとりながら楽しめました。ただ、数人船酔いしてしまい、辛い時間になってしまったことが悔やまれます。船酔いする方は前もって酔い止めなど飲むことをお勧めします。

It was a lot of fun to experience the boat trip with my friends. The boat was small and swayed a bit, but after having a cocktail, I felt energized. When I went out on deck, suddenly a whale appeared, surfacing multiple times and spouting water—it was a surprising and happy moment. We had a great view of Diamond Head, and the sunset was absolutely perfect for the mood. Just when I thought it was time to head back, the whale showed its tail several times, as if inviting us to come back to the waters of Hawaii. I plan to come again next year. The sunset cruise was amazing!

友人夫婦と一緒に初体験船は小さいがとても楽しかったです。船は少し揺れカクテルを少し頂いたら元気になれ甲板に出ると突然鯨が～背中を何度も出し潮吹きを目のあたりし驚き幸せのひと時でしたダイヤモンドヘッドが良く見られ日が落ちるサンセットはムード最高でした。そろそろ帰るのかな～と思っていると又クジラが尾びれを何度も見せていただき又ハワイの海に来て～
て行っているようでした。来年も来る予定です。サンセットクルーズは最高～です。

It was a wonderful cruising experience, and I felt very good. You can feel the wind and waves much closer than on a large cruiser. If you come to Hawaii, you definitely should go on this.

素敵なクルージングで　とても気持ち良かったです。
大型のクルーザーより　風も波も近くに感じられます。
ハワイに来たなら　絶対乗るべきです。

I participated with two female friends. There were few Japanese people, and the staff communicated entirely in English, so the explanations were a bit lacking, but I could generally understand the atmosphere of the place. Even though I couldn't understand the words, I found myself laughing as everyone got excited. The sunset was beautiful! However, it was quite cold, and although there was an all-you-can-drink alcohol option, I couldn't drink that much. I realized that a thick hoodie is essential during this time of year.

女ともだち2人での参加です♪
日本人の人は少なく、スタッフの方もオールイングリッシュだったので説明などはいまいちでしたが、その場の雰囲気で大体わかりますし、みんながワーッと盛り上がっていたら言葉はわからないけど笑えてきました。笑
サンセットも綺麗でした！
が、どうにも寒くアルコールも飲み放題ですがそんなに飲めませんでした。この時期は厚手のパーカーなどが必須だなと実感しました。

Highly recommend it! Crew was wonderful. Made sure we had drinks and the appetizers. View of Waikiki absolutely breathtaking!the sunset was magical! Also saw humpback whales as a bonus! Would do it again.

Great time. Plenty of booze, great staff. We actually saw a humpback whale!! Highly recommended. Do the Friday sunset tour, then grab a drink at shore bird , and watch fireworks from the beach. Did I mention the humpback whale!

Highly recommended! The whole group bonded over whale watching and guava juice/rum libations. The crew was friendly, accommodating, and chill. Awesome experience!

did not make it out as it was too windy but company was great to deal with

I was finally able to ride the catamaran that I've wanted to try for a long time. Most of the people around me were foreigners, and there was no Japanese spoken, but even with my limited language skills, I had a great time! The crew was really nice! There are free drinks available, but be careful not to drink too much since there are no restrooms. Overall, I felt amazing. I will definitely do this again!

以前から乗りたかったカタマランに初めて乗ることができました。周りは殆どが外国の方で、日本語は無でしたが、片言しか話せない私でも十分！！楽しめました。クルーもかなりの、ｎｉｃｅ　ｇｕｙ！！！フリードリンクで飲み放題ですが、トイレはないので飲み過ぎに注意。取りあえず、気分は最高。また、リピートします！！

Lovely cruise. Drinking champagne while watching a pair of humpback whales who just happened to show up "perform". The sunset was also nice. The staff and crew were fine and on time.

You can enjoy sailing until sunset in the best location. However, while we were surrounded by lively foreigners enjoying the party atmosphere with Mai Tais, our family, being quiet Japanese, couldn't quite get into the mood... But after disembarking, we had all been holding it in, so everyone headed straight to the restroom at the Sheraton Hotel.

最高のロケーションで夕日が沈むまでのセイリングを満喫できます。
ただ、マイタイを飲みながらパーティー気分でノリノリの外国人の中で、無口な日本人の私たち家族はずっと雰囲気に乗り切れないままでしたが・・でも下船後はトイレを我慢していたので、全員がシェラトンホテルのトイレに直行でした。

Great staff, nice cat, cheap drinks! Can't compain :)

We participated as a couple. We enjoyed views of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the nearby sea, and we witnessed the most beautiful sunset while sipping delicious Mai Tais! However, the experience before boarding and after disembarking was the worst. The meeting place was unclear, and it was hard to identify who the staff member was. There was no guidance even after the meeting time had passed. After guessing and asking around, we finally figured it out. The pre-boarding instructions were only in fast-paced English, making them almost impossible to understand. We were also forced to take photos before boarding. Upon disembarking, we were made to line up to buy those photos, and my wife, who needed to use the restroom, was left frustrated. The event itself was very enjoyable, but I think I would prefer a different yacht next time.

夫婦で参加しました。ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドを近くの海から眺め、また最高の日没を拝め、おいしいマイタイを頂戴しました！が、乗船前、下船後が最低でした。集合場所はあいまい。誰が担当者か分からず。集合時間が過ぎても案内がなく。見当をつけて声をかけてようやく判明。乗船前の説明は早口の英語のみでほとんど理解不能。乗船前には強制的に写真撮影。下船時にはその写真を売りつけるために並ばされ、トイレに行きたい家内は顔をシロクロ。イベントそのものはたいへん楽しいですが、次回は別のヨットにしたいと思います。

I went to Hawaii with my parents for my brother's wedding. There were no other Japanese people besides us. However, the scenery was amazing. This time, we will be on our honeymoon. I will definitely return.

弟の結婚式でハワイに行ったときに親と一緒にいきました。私たち以外日本人はいなかったです。
でも、景色は最高でした＞＞
また今回はハネムーンできます。
リピーターします。

We enjoyed the views and the hospitality of the crew! So do it again next trip!

Drinking a Mai Tai while watching the wonderful sunset from off Waikiki. It feels amazing! I want to experience it again.

ワイキキ沖から素晴らしい夕陽を見ながらマイタイを飲む。
サイコーな気分です！また体感したいと思っています。

Great time. Crew was fun and enjoyed the beverages and sunset. Would definitely do again.

My wife and I purchased the tickets last minute, and we had a great time. We took the sunset cruise, and it was truly amazing to watch sunset on the sea. They had great music along with the ride on the way, they serve nice cocktail, the crew were in good control of the cruise and friendly.

Note that some people got motion sick since we had waves on the sea. Take warm jacket if you decide to watch sunset as it gets cold and windy after sunset.

Great staff, beautiful scenery, we even saw a whale breech! Highly recommend this cruise!

Very nice outing. Unfortunately no whales or Dolphins were seen! We did see flying fish which was exciting for the children.

This was my first time in Hawaii. I wanted to watch the sunset from the sea and debated between a dinner cruise, but I chose this one because it was reasonably priced.

As everyone mentioned, the meeting place was hard to find. I saw a JTB representative walking around at the Sheraton, so I called out to them for directions.

Feeling the wind and seeing Diamond Head and the city of Waikiki from the sea was an entirely different view that excited me, and the sunset sinking into the horizon was beautiful.

We all burst into laughter when we saw a foreigner who was completely soaked after getting splashed while taking pictures with their iPad and smartphone. The atmosphere on the boat was fun, especially with some drinks involved.

初ハワイです。海からサンセットを眺めたくてディナークルージングと迷いましたが値段も手頃なこちらに参加しました。
皆さん書かれてる通り集合場所が分かり難かったです。シェラトンでJTBの人が歩いて居たので思わず声をかけて教えて貰いました。
風を感じて海から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街はまた景色が全然違って興奮したし、水平線に沈む夕日も綺麗でした。
ネットの上でiPadやスマホで夢中に写真を撮っていた外国人が思いっきり水しぶきを被ってビショビショになった姿を見て皆で爆笑が起きたりと船上もお酒が入ってる事もあり楽しかったです。

The cloudy weather from the previous day was a lie, as we were greeted with a beautiful clear sky and a wonderful sunset. Just at the moment the sun was setting, the excited crew bounced the yacht too much, which caused some booing from those who were trying to capture the perfect photo or video, but I thought it was very American.

This time, there were many young Americans who were quite loud, and when a group of Chinese tourists passed by on their yacht, some unpleasant remarks were made about it not being an Asian sea, which was quite uncomfortable. However, there were also many solo participants, creating a relaxed atmosphere.

For drinks, we all toasted with Mai Tais, and when we asked the crew for refills, they brought out plenty of Mai Tais, beers, and colas. The stars from the ocean at night and the night view of Waikiki were also absolutely stunning. After the cruise, there was the usual photo sale, and I ended up purchasing one because the view of Diamond Head in the background was beautiful!

前日までの曇天が嘘のように快晴でとても素晴らしいサンセットでした。
丁度夕日が沈む瞬間に、興奮したクルーがヨットをバウンドさせすぎたので、せっかくのシャッターチャンスやビデオを撮影していた人たちからブーイングになりましたが、アメリカっぽいと思いました。
今回は若いアメリカ人が多くとても騒がしくて、近くを中国人グループのヨットが通った時にアジアの海じゃないなどとの差別用語が飛び交ってかなり不愉快なこともありましたが、一人参加の人も多くて気軽な感じでした。
ドリンクは、全員でマイタイで乾杯し、お変りはマイタイやビール、コーラなどクルーに確認するとたくさん出てきます。
夜の海からの星や、ワイキキの夜景もとても素晴らしかったです。
クルーズの後で、お決まりの写真販売がありましたが、背面に移ったダイアモンドヘッドがきれいだったので購入してしまいました！

The reception area can be a bit hard to find, so it might be a good idea to check it out in advance. At the reception, you just hand over your voucher, so it's easy.

When boarding, you'll be wading in water up to your knees, so be mindful of your clothing, and you'll need to take off your shoes to get on. Also, it gets chilly after sunset, so wearing long sleeves is helpful.

The boat does sway a little, but the breeze feels nice and the scenery is beautiful, so I didn't feel seasick. It was a bit disappointing that there were more clouds on the day, but overall, I was very satisfied.

少し受付の場所は分かりにくいので、先に確認しておく方がいいかもです。受付ではバウチャーを渡すだけなので楽。
乗船の時に膝くらいまで浸かるので服装に注意、靴も脱いで乗り込みます。あと、日が暮れてからは冷えるので長袖が役に立ちます。
船は少し揺れますが、風が気持ちいいことと景色が綺麗で酔うことはありませんでした。当日は少し雲が多かったのが残念でしたが、大満足です。

Fantastic time!! The sailing was great and the drinks were the best. Would recommend to anyone traveling to Hawaii.

Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day, and I couldn't help but think how wonderful it would have been to have a clear sunset. I don't speak Japanese at all, but everyone was friendly and kind, and the Mai Tai was very delicious.
When boarding the boat, you will get soaked up to your knees, and it can get surprisingly cold, so a towel and a sturdy windbreaker are essential.

当日は残念ながら曇りだったので、はっきりしたサンセットだったらどんなに素晴らしいだろうと思いました。日本語は全く通じませんが、皆さんフレンドリーで優しく、マイタイもとても美味しかったです。
船に乗り込む際にひざ下までおもいっきり濡れることと、意外なほど冷え込むので、タオルと、しっかりした風よけの上着は必須です。
