I booked this excursion for my family of 4 (two young adult sons). I specifically chose a Thursday because of the live music. The crew was fantastic, the trip was very smooth, and we all had a great time. The appetizers were nice and they did a great job of offering multiple passes at both the food and drinks. We have done a sunset cruise on each of our trips to Maui and this was amongst the best experiences for us.

Everything was excellent about this Luau:
- the location on the beach with the sun setting
- your own private table
- food brought to you instead of getting it yourself
- the variety of traditional foods presented
- the performers and their performances (especially the fire dance)
- the unlimited drinks
- the service staff
- the weather that day
OK, the only thing not so excellent was I had to pay $10 for parking across the street for the evening because I wasn't sure the 3-hour free parking about a block and a half away would be sufficient. Because we came an hour early (5:30 PM) to explore the area and the feast ended at around 9:30, you could say that was a most excellent decision.

The staff was amazing! The tour is a wonderful experience. I was hoping to see more marine life, but of course that’s not in anyones control. That was my only disappointment. Otherwise everything was well organized. I would recommend this excursion at least once to experience it.

I’ve been to three different luaus as I visited Maui 3 separate vacations . This one by far was the best. The food was excellent and they were aware of our dietary allergies. We had 2 children in our party and they enjoyed it also. The service was wonderful. Our waiter was fun and knowledgeable. The show kept us wanting more. The setting was gorgeous and the stage was in the middle so everyone could see. I would definitely go again but book it early! We tried the first 2 times and couldn’t get in. As soon as we knew we were going to Maui we book this luau first thing because we heard so many good things about it.

see yelp and trip advisor
Avoid this cruise $300 a couple for dinner dancing cruise but no dancing ( see pictures). First, boarding was late then a person came out slovenly dress and said they were going to board.
Second problem all of the plates were out before we boarded with single file space you had to look for your “name” which means everybody’s face has been all over YOUR plate gross. Can we say Cova 19 boys and girls? AFTER, we left port was the announcement that the toilet DO NOT work and that we could NOT put toilet paper in the toilet that we had to put it in the garbage can beside it, bottle water provided for hand washing no soap! Wait no soap?! no running water??!! When my husband had to used the restroom they pour water in hands, NO paper towel, and was given hand sanitizer. REALLY??!!There was no dancing possible because we were crammed upstairs because the RUGS downstairs were pulled up.
I guess we’re to dance in my seats?!
THEN BLAME GAME: after cruise requested refund was told to call VIATOR ( which I did upon my return THEY REFUSED!!! Piss on!! Now I am pissed off!! someone needs must return ANY money and refund they should did us a favor and cancelled this tour. Viator offers get FREE CANCELLATION VIA ANYBODY for EVERYTHING USED. IF BOOKED THROUGH them get guarantee or pay extra for free cancellation or good faith agreement.
if there is a agency that handles this boating industry in Hawaii? I want you to email me all of the information that I need to forward all of my pictures as well as picture of four other couples shut down time!! I got nothing but time.

Upon arrival, the check in process was smooth. You can take a look at the Banyan Tree or take a quick stroll on Front Street after check in while you wait for the tour to start.
We found the crew to be incredibly friendly and professional. The submarine was clean and well air conditioned. There are no guarantees of what type of sea life will be around but we got lucky with a small shark and ray! Spent lots of time at the shipwreck site :) There are also some pretty amazing photo opportunities as you take the boat to/from the submarine.
Would highly recommend!

So disappointed….. for the money we paid, we expected some aura of elegance……NO! Service was slow and probably because they couldn’t get workers! I get it…. Then don’t book a full ship! Ship very old and run down…… horrible smells! Food was Ok. Overall expected more judging on their advertisements! Will not recommend it to friends!

Pros:
Friendly and helpful crew members, and great communication from the captain when we encountered some dolphins.
I enjoyed the pulled pork for the lunch. Very fresh.
The snorkels they provided were way better than what you get at ABC stores for $10. Very easy to breath with, and I never got water inside the snorkel.
They provided great floatation devices. Noodles and belts. Made it easy to focus on watching the under-water world.
Cons:
Too much time spent on the way. I would like to spent ~30min more in the water.
Tips:
Bring your own disinfectant wipes to further clean the snorkel if you are concerned.
You can rent a GoPro on the boat to take video/photos under water. I tried water-proof bag with my cellphone, but it didn't work well.

This was a horrible experience. Food was horrible, (my mahi mahi was not fresh and there was s curly black hair in mine). We were seated at a table with another random couple, (not very romantic.) My husbands food was also gross and very fatty. The cheesecake was still frozen and drinks were watered down, including my Diet Coke. The bathrooms were the worst part-absolutely disgusting like they hadn’t been cleaned in years. They smelt like vomit. The boat was extremely old and dirty and the “live music” was too loud and below mediocre. Please save your money!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!

The sunset dinner cruise was a very fun night. And of course, the ocean and views were so, soo beautiful. Dinner was pretty good. I had mahi-mahi with potatoes and carrots. Others in my party had some prime rib that was the better choice.
We had pleasant time all around!
1 note however, the boat was a little loud and looked a bit old and worn. But once the sun was setting and we had some drinks, none of that seemed to bother me anymore!
I definitely recommend!

We had a late flight our last day in Maui so we wanted something fun and easy to do after we checked out of our condo. The MauI Ocean Center was a really fun time and educational to boot. There is a mix of outdoor and indoor spaces, an interactive show on feeding the sharks and rays, and plenty of exhibits that allow you up close views of the fish and turtles we saw while snorkeling.
The 3d video on whales was well done and the crowds were light enough to allow us good access to all the different viewing areas.

My family and I had the best experience. From the moment we stepped onto the boat, the crew was very attentive, friendly, and funny. They provided a great overview of the day activities and what we needed. They checked on us frequently and even provided a little history lesson on the nearby islands. We took about 1 hr boat ride over to Lanai. Once at Lanai, it was a 7 minute walk to the beach. The beach was amazing!!! We did some snorkeling, a short nature walk, and had some time to chill at the beach. The BBQ LUNCH was delicious! The boat ride back we enjoyed 2 cocktails and ice cream. The crew exceeded our expectations. I would definitely do this again! I felt like VIP. Book it! You won’t regret it

My wife and I had an incredible day on this excursion! The exclusive rights to the island that other tour companies do not have is what makes this company one of a kind!! They take you to a "private" beach and allow you to snorkel, hike, and provide a breakfast and lunch! There were other companies snorkeling around reefs but this company actually takes you onto the island!! We HIGHLY recommend! Captain Raquel and her crew were fantastic!

We LOVED this- a dive in a submarine to see the world below with a variety of fish including sharks and unicorn fish, even a sunken ship which is now a man-made reef. We even set down on the ocean floor at 130 feet beneath the surface. Everyone had their own viewing porthole. Recommended.
