- It's close to the stage, but since it's just one table away, it's not that different.
- You can receive a lei made of fresh flowers.
- You can go get your food early during the meal.

So, honestly, a regular seat is perfectly fine. The food is the same. The show was absolutely wonderful.
I received a message that the meeting time is at 5 PM, but the doors open at 5 PM and the show starts around 6 or 7 PM, so I think it would be better to arrive a bit later to avoid the line at the entrance.

ーステージに近い、でもテーブル1個分なのでそんなに違わない
ー生の花のレイがもらえる
ー食事のとき早めに取りに行ける

なので、正直普通の席で問題ありません。食事も同じ。
ショーはとっても素晴らしかったです。
集合時間17時と連絡ありますが、開場が17時でショーは18時、19時くらいから始まるので
ちょっとずらしてきたほうが入口の行列に並ばなくてすむとおもいます。

Such a great sail. Well looked after. So much fun.

We had a great time! I would recommend it for a fun night.

This was my second sunset cruise. I made a reservation from Japan. It seems to be quite popular, and it's sometimes hard to get a spot with local bookings. The restrooms are not very clean, but they are available. If you ask the crew, they will guide you. If you're worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. In winter, I think it might be a bit cold for the sunset, so it's a must-do when visiting Hawaii in the summer.

2回目のサンセットクルーズ。日本から予約していきました。人気があるようで、現地予約では、とれないことも。
トイレも綺麗ではないですが、一応あります。クルーに尋ねると教えてくれます。船酔いが心配な方は、事前に酔い止めを飲まれることをお勧めします。
冬は、サンセットは少し寒いカナと思うので夏場にハワイを訪れた時のmustです。

This was relaxing and awesome! We got to see turtles and dolphins on this sailing cruise. You get to see the beautiful view of the city and diamond head. Great price for this!

On the second day of our honeymoon in Hawaii, we participated in this cruise. There was one other Japanese couple besides us. As mentioned in the reviews, there were many foreign participants. Some even brought along their 0-year-old children!

The Mai Tai served was incredibly delicious! However, I was worried about the restroom situation, so I couldn't enjoy it as much as I would have liked... If only the restrooms were properly managed! I think it would have been an outstanding cruise.

ハワイへの新婚旅行の２日目にこちらのクルーズに参加しました。
日本人は私たちの他にもう一組。
口コミ通り外国人の参加者が多かったです。
中には0歳時のお子ちゃま連れも！

サーブされたマイタイはめちゃくちゃおいしかったです！
ただトイレの心配が先立ち、あまり頂けなかったのが残念……。
トイレさえちゃんとあれば！
文句なしのクルーズだったと思います。

When our original fireworks sail was canceled, we were told this sail would be comparable. However, when the confirmation was sent it clearly stated we would not see the fireworks regularly scheduled on Friday evenings since we would be ashore before the fireworks began. We were devastated. BUT... much to our surprise and NOT mentioned on line or the confirmation/voucher documents, we sailed amidst the local sailboat club's Friday sunset "race". It was absolutely breathtaking to sail with several other boats in the sunset. The crew make some awesome Maitai's too! Enjoy!!!

The beauty of the catamaran, where you can feel close to the ocean, was something I experienced last year when I was lucky enough to encounter sea turtles and dolphins during the daytime. This year, I joined to see the beautiful sunset. When we set sail, there were many clouds, and I worried whether we would be able to see the sunset, but soon it cleared up, and we enjoyed about two hours of sailing. The scenery of Waikiki and Diamond Head changing with the light of the sunset, the endlessly deep blue sea, and the breathtaking beauty of the sunset shining even more brightly at dusk were all unforgettable. Although we were the only Japanese on the catamaran, which felt completely foreign, we shared the emotion of the beautiful sunset and took photos together, feeling the goodness of peace despite our different backgrounds. (We had visited Pearl Harbor during the day.) Drinks were free, with unlimited Mai Tais and soft drinks. (I brought snacks purchased at ABC Store.) While the foreign guests seemed fine, it was quite chilly on the water, and I was glad I brought a long-sleeve shirt. (If I participate again, I plan to bring socks as well.) The crew spoke only English, so I didn't quite understand the explanation about the restroom... It seemed like you had to open the lid and go down to use it. (We followed the advice from reviews and used the restroom just before boarding.) By the time the sunset was over and we returned to the Sheraton beach, everything around us was dyed pink, creating a beautiful memory that felt like a dream. There was a box for tips when disembarking, so I think it's a good idea to bring a little money.

海を近くに感じられるカタマラン号の良さは，昨年昼間にホヌやイルカに出会うというラッキーもあって，経験済みでした。今年は，美しい夕陽を見たいと参加しました。出航時は雲が多く，夕陽は見られるかしらと心配しましたが，ほどなく晴れ，二時間ばかりのセーリングを楽しみました。夕陽に照らされて刻々と変わっていくワイキキやダイアモンドヘッド等の風景，どこまでも碧く藍色の海，そして日の入り時に一層まばゆく輝く夕陽の美しさ。日本人は，私達だけという完全アウェイ状態のカタマラン号の中でしたが，人種は違っても，美しい夕陽に共に感動したり，写真を取り合ったりと平和の良さもしみじみ感じました。（昼間，パールハーバーを訪れていたので。）飲み物はFreeドリンク。マイタイ，ソフトドリンク飲み放題。（ABCストアで買ったおつまみ持参しました。）外国の方達は平気そうでしたが，海上はとても肌寒く，長袖持参していて良かったです。（次回参加することがあれば，靴下も持って行くつもりです。）クルーの方達は英語のみなので，トイレの説明をされたようですが，よく分からず・・・。どうやら蓋を開けて下に行って用を足していました。（私達は，口コミのアドバイス通りに，乗船間際にトイレを済ませておきました。）夕陽が沈み，シェラトンの浜辺に帰る頃は，辺り一面ピンク色に染まり，夢のような美しい思い出になりました。下船時にチップを入れる箱がありました。少しのお金を持参されるのが良いかなと思います。

What a great way to spend a Hawaiian sunset!
Capt Jake and Travis made sure we enjoyed our cruise.
Dinner at the Shorebird was good, Friday night fireworks and Karaoke was a bonus

Really enjoyed the sail - is the right amount of time and a great way to see Waikiki. Our daughter enjoyed going over the waves and watching sailing in action. Only problem was the on board music. Loud 60/70s rock music - what a way to spoil a peaceful sail! Got to be a better playlist out there for sailing - or how about listening to the waves?!

This year, I chose a different Mai Tai catamaran than the one I rode last year. The departure location was a bit hard to find, as it was behind the Sheraton Waikiki, but fortunately, the people I shared the ride with, including some foreigners, were all very nice. We had a great time taking pictures together and enjoying each other's company. I definitely want to do this again when I come back to Waikiki.

今年は昨年乗ったのとちがうこのマイタイカタマラン号をチョイスしました。出発場所はシェラトンワイキキの裏側とちょっと分かりにくかったのですが、幸いかどうかわかりませんが、乗りあった人たちが、外人の方も含め非常に良い方たちばかりで、みんなで和気あいあいと写真を撮り合ったりと非常に楽しい時間を過ごせました。またワイキキに来たら必ずオプションしたいと思います。

My wife and I had a great time on the sunset cruise. Made some great new friends form Germany and Australia, and the drinks kept comin'! We would recomment this one to anyone looking for fun on the water. It's a little more than some others, but that helps keep the kids away. If you are looking for a booze cruise without the screaming children, this is the one!

Great time. My daughter got sea sicked but other than we had a lot of fun.

Very nice boat and crew. Good drinks but would have preferred an open bar like the Island Magic. Delightful sail. Would do again.

Delightful evening sail with an open bar. It was FUN and a gorgeous sail. Loved the crew. Great job guys!

We had a better time than expected. My daughter got motion sickness but everyone had a great time.

Waikiki was the destination of our honeymoon and a Fireworks Cocktail Cruise sounded perfect! I didn't anticipate how DARK it would be when arriving to the boat. It should have been obvious...but I didn't think about it. It was cumbersome to board the boat due to the tide and needing to board from another area a catamaran had left from. This meant we had to walk over a concrete divide that had been slightly eroded to access the ship. Was a little tricky.
The staff for the event was great. Full of energy and kept everyone informed of what was happening. The boat was full of happy tourists ready to party. Drinks flowed quickly and if you were adept enough to weave through the crowd in bobbing waves--there was not problem in accessing beverages. Since it was super dark, it was hard to see how to get around the boat. We unfortunately sat by the toilet on deck which was hysterical. It basically was a clear plastic top that opened and you climbed down stairs that felt like a propped up ladder. Inside it was really tight to move (duh, it's a catamaran). My husband said he didn't know how women would actually use it if they needed to sit. Best of all was---since it was so dark, the only light you could see was from the toilet; and if you were down there...EVERYONE could look down and see you. It was one of my favorite take-aways from the experience.

Overall the cruise was fun, staff was great, and drinks were solid. Hard part is having only a few minutes of fireworks...and then floating around in the dark with a boombox and sitting next to the bathroom.

If I was to book a cocktail cruise again...I'd choose the happy hour to enjoy the sunset.

Crew was great, they treated you like long time friends.
The drinks were awesome and not the watered down ones you get with other all you can drink tours. Part of the fun was getting on and off the boat.
Only negative comment was that the head had a see through hatch, but I would do this trip again. I highly recommend this sail trip.

Absolutely recommended!!!!!!!

Last time (last year) it was canceled due to a hurricane. This was my second try.

The boat was full. I think there were about 40 people on board. Japanese was not spoken. There was one other group of Japanese guests, probably.

I was worried about seasickness (I usually get seasick easily), but no problem!!!

I enjoyed the view of Waikiki from the sea,

and then,

I was so excited by the sea, the rainbow, the dolphins, and the sunset that I couldn't focus on anything else^^

The Mai Tai was close to orange juice, but I had three cups. I think this amount is just right. If it were stronger in alcohol, I would probably get seasick.

The cocktails were only Mai Tai. There were other juices available.

Anyway, I was moved by the sea, the rainbow, the dolphins, and the sunset. The dolphins seemed to be playing with the boat in groups.

I want to ride again next time!!!

Without a doubt, it's a hall of fame experience.

絶対オススメ！！！！！！！

前回（去年）申込時に、ハリケーンで中止に。
再度のトライでした。

船は、満員。40名位乗ってたんじゃないかと思います。
日本語は、通じません。
日本人のお客さんも他1組、多分。

船酔いを気にしてましたが（普段酔いやすいタイプです）
ノープロブレム！！！

ワイキキを海から眺め、

そして、

海と虹とイルカと夕陽に
興奮でそれどころじゃなかったです^^

マイタイは、オレンジジュースに近かったけれど、3杯飲みました。
多分このくらいが良いのでしょう。
アルコール強めだと船酔いしちゃうでしょうね。

カクテルは、マイタイのみ。
他はジュースがありました。

とにかく、海と虹とイルカと夕陽に感動。
イルカは群れになって船とじゃれあってるみたいでした。

次もまた乗りたい！！！

間違いなく、殿堂入りです。

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii. This time, I visited for my niece's wedding, and a friend recommended that I definitely check it out! Elvis, Gaga, Michael Jackson... it was so much fun! The dinner, which even included lobster, was satisfying for the price! I also enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the night streets! I highly recommend it for those who want to relax on Oahu!

６度目のハワイ。今回は姪の結婚式での訪問だったので、友人に「絶対いいよ！」と薦められて観させていただきました。エルビス、ガガ、マイケルジャクソン。。。おもしろかった！楽しかった！ロブスターまであったディナーもあのお値段にしては満足です(^^♪
のんびり散歩しながら夜の街も満喫できました！
オワフ島でのんびりしたい方にはおすすめです！

The singer came up to the audience, and there was a lot of excitement with handshakes and more. I participated in the cocktail show, which included one drink, and I was able to order various cocktails. The venue was easy to see from my seat, which was in a great location, and I had a wonderful time. The photo opportunity after the show was also nice.

シンガーが客席に上がって、握手など大変盛り上がりました。カクテルショーに参加でしたが、ドリンク１パイ付でしたが、いろいろなカクテルを頼めて、ショー会場も見やすく、席もいいところで、大変楽しかったです。ショー後の、記念写真タイムも良かったです。

I arrived in Honolulu and went shopping at Ala Moana before heading out! However, the trolley didn't come at all, and I ended up being late. I thought, "Oh no!!" but since this was my fifth time in Hawaii, I knew where the meeting point was, so I got off the bus and sprinted! They were waiting for me. The breeze felt nice, the ocean was beautiful, and the calm atmosphere made me truly appreciate Hawaii. Everyone, starting with the captain, was fun, and we enjoyed snacks while chatting over juice; the hour flew by. On the day of arrival, I was able to fully enjoy Hawaii at a leisurely pace, which was fantastic.

ホノルルに到着し、アラモアナでショッピングしてから出発！が、なんとトローリーが全く来なくて遅刻してしまいました。アウト！！と思ったけれどハワイ5回目の私は、集合場所がわかっていたため、バス停を降り全力疾走！！！ちゃんと待っていてくれました。風が気持ちよく、海が綺麗、穏やかな時間がハワイを実感させてくれました。キャプテンを始めみんな楽しい人達で、ジュースを飲みながらスナックのお菓子を食べ、楽しいトークであっという間の１時間でした。到着日は、ゆっくりハワイを満喫でき最高でした。

The catamaran sail was a great experience. The crew were friendly and enthusiastic and the other passengers were all happy to chat. Getting to see the fireworks from the ocean is an amazing thing and I am very pleased that I went. I would definitely go again next time I am in Honolulu and I recommend it whole-heartedly.

Unfortunately, we were not blessed with good weather and couldn't see the sunset. However, I had a wonderful time with a Mai Tai in hand off the coast of Waikiki Beach! I definitely want to join again next time!!!

残念ながらお天気に恵まれずサンセットを見ることはできませんでした。。が、ワイキキビーチ沖でマイタイ片手にとても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました！！次回またぜひ参加したいです！！！

When I went for the first time two years ago, the impersonator of Steven Tyler was so impressive that this time, my expectations were higher, resulting in an average rating.

二年前に初めて行った時の、スティーヴン・タイラーの物まねの人の
完成度が高すぎて、期待した分、今回は平均的な評価になりました。

The show was impressive and very enjoyable. I rated it four stars because it was hot and sunny until sunset, but the service was very pleasant, as they offered drinks to the kids and provided two leis. The buffet was delicious and catered to Japanese tastes, so I even had some sushi that I wouldn't typically eat in Hawaii. I would love to participate again.

迫力あるショーでとても楽しかったです。
日没まで、日が当たり暑かったので、星4つにしましたが、ドリンクを子供にサービスしてくれたり、レイを二つ掛けてくれたりと、とても感じの良い接客でした。
ビュッフェもおいしく、日本人好みの味だったので、ハワイで食べない海苔巻も頂きました。
また参加したいです。

sunset was beautiful, staff was friendly and fun, music was great, and drinks were strong! loved it!

This was my third time. The catamaran had changed to a new one. Unfortunately, the netting was disappointing and brought my mood down. The previous one had a mesh design that felt like you were gliding over the sea when you sat down, which was fantastic, but now it was just a series of holes, and I couldn't enjoy that refreshing feeling. However, my friend who joined me was experiencing it for the first time and had a great time. They were very happy and said they definitely want to ride again, so I give it four stars.

今回で3度目でした　カタマランが新しく変わってました　ネットが残念なことになっていてテンションさがりました　前のは網状でスケスケで座ると海の上を滑ってるかのようですっごく良かったのですがただの穴ぷつぷつあいたものになっていてあの爽快感が味わえませんでした　でも一緒に参加した友達は初めての体験でしたのでとても楽しんでました　またぜひ乗りたいと大喜びでした　ので星４つです

The cruise was good, the weather, not so much. The captain and bartender were very friendly, and entertaining.

Great crew and great experience. Don't miss out on heaven!
