Premium Sunset Cruise with 4-Course Dinner, Cocktails & Seasonal Whale Watching
Lovely Cruise and staff. , small dinner serving
Reviewed by: Nikki Contini
We really enjoyed our experience with Pacific Whale Foundation- we went on a snorkel cruise a couple of days prior to dinner cruise and had a blast. Solid staff with lots of Passion and knowledge about the oceans and specifically Maui.
The Dinner cruise was nice but we were all fairly disappointed in the food servings and 3 of our steaks were basically blood rare and we ordered them MR. it was too late to get them back on the grill. first course was a delicious good size at artichoke spinach dip. Or something close to that. It’s was tasty and plentiful but just a few pieces of bread for the whole thing and there was so much dip and no seconds on bread !? Kind of ridiculous, especially for the price of the dinner. The salad of mixed greens and some veggies was served with very tasty dressing … sure would have been nice to have some bread with that .. then came our entrees … so small ! A petit steak and one piece of chicken or a few prawns … small portions of protein then this outrageous amount of carrots. And a scoop of purple sweet pot mash which was tasty too. Drinks were okay- not great. Very sugary. … Mai tais , margaritas or wine were some of the choices.
Brownies for dessert were delish !
It was beautiful to cruise Lahaina area and eat on the water. Just wish the food was more plentiful - it’s really felt skimpy with all those carrots … just seemed like they were cutting corners. We ate when we got home. That should tell you something.
The staff wonderful , sweet, nice energy.

Lahaina Sunset Dinner Cruise w/ Live Music & Cocktails - Maui Princess [CLOSED]
Not romantic at all!!!
Reviewed by: Mediocre
Way overpriced! The boat is really cramped. If you’re looking for something romantic then DON’t pick this. You will have to share your table with strangers, the drinks are watered down and the food was not good. Extremely bland!

Maui Ultimate Luxury Sunset Gourmet Dinner Sail & Open Bar - Alii Kai Catamaran
Must do!
Reviewed by: Caitlyn
The Alii Nui Sunset Cruise was incredible! My husband and I booked the cruise for our honeymoon and were very pleased with the whole experience. The boat launched from Maalaea Harbor around 5pm and began serving drinks once out of the harbor. We loved the signature drinks! Dinner was delicious and offered gluten free options including seared ahi tuna, prime rib, potatoes, and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. The ribs were advertised as GF, but had bbq sauce containing gluten on top. The crew was very helpful when I asked to check on gluten friendly options!
We could see amazing views of the sunset the whole time which was super important to us. We also loved that we had freedom to move around the boat as desired.
The whole crew was fantastic! Captain Jamey, Kalina, Farel, and Jackson went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. We were impressed that the crew not only served throughout the dinner, but also picked guests up from hotels, sailed the boat, bartended, and also made time to be friendly with the guests. The cruise also had a professional photographer, Anna, who took beautiful photos of the guests throughout the evening. During the dinner, she edited the photos and then we were able to purchase them as keepsakes.
This would make a great romantic evening for any honeymooners or couple! We highly recommend. :)

Calypso Sunset Dinner Cruise with Cocktails & Island Music from Maalaea Harbor
Anniversary Sunset Cruise
Reviewed by: MEF
We wanted to do something special for our 41st anniversary, and this sunset dinner cruise met all of our expectations! The boat was very comfortable, you had a choice of sitting inside or outside. We ate inside and once we finished eating we moved outside to watch the sunset. The sunset that night was absolutely amazing and was definitely the highlight, the sky looked like it was on fire, with pink and orange Hugh's. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make sure everyone was taking care of. Definitely include this on your next trip to Maui...I don't think you will be disappointed.

Ocean Spirit Sunset Cruise with Appetizers & Seasonal Whale Watching Experience
Nice, short cruise with friendly crew
Reviewed by: RobStl
This is a nice 2-hour sunset cruise. The crew was very friendly and professional while being fun. The appetizers were a little fancy but just ok-tasting. The drinks, too, were ok. There was also live music by a singer who played an instrument. He was pretty good.
Based on our experience, this cruise is suitable for anyone, including for families and couples. We had a mix of both. Everyone had their own seat but we could move about as we wanted during the cruise.

Everything was great!
Reviewed by: First timers
Our first trip to Maui and we chose our first activity to be this dinner cruise. From the moment we boarded the captain and crew were attentive and helpful. Everyone was smiling and enjoying themselves! We saw dolphins playing and the sunset was the most beautiful I’ve ever seen! We will definitely do this cruise again!

Trilogy Deluxe Sunset Cocktail Sail Open Bar & Gourmet Appetizers from Maalaea
Just okay, would do something else instead.
Reviewed by: Courtney
Not a great view. They didn’t sail very far before turning around and it felt like we didn’t make much progress. Food was cold when we got it, drinks were very watered down or little alcohol, some of the staff was rude. We did love our captain. She was very friendly and personable. You could talk to her and she even let some of the kids have a turn steering the sail boat. Overall I wouldn’t do this again if given the choice and would chose something else.

2-Hour Sunset Dinner Cruise with Live Music & Drinks - Quicksilver Catamaran
Spectacular cruise!
Reviewed by: Laurel Smith
We greatly enjoyed the dinner cruise. The views were absolutely beautiful and the staff was extremely attentive, courteous, and friendly. We also enjoyed that there was live music. My only comment that could have been improved was that there was no food for children. While I appreciated that my daughter was free, I would rather have paid a small price for something simple for her, such as macaroni and cheese or a hot dog.

Great way to end a trip to Maui
Reviewed by: Jana
Despite being quite a windy evening, this was a great experience. We wanted to cap off our stay in Maui with this sunset cruise. The crew was so friendly and helpful. The drinks (alcoholics and non) were tasty and the appetizers were also delicious. I can’t fault the crew for the high winds, and they did a great job trying to find a spot a little out of the wind for us. I also liked that this was a relatively small charter with only 25 or so passengers. Overall, a really nice evening on the water! Thank you!

Lahaina Sunset Dinner Cruise w/ Live Music & Cocktails - Maui Princess [CLOSED]
Not For Everybody
Reviewed by: Unhappy couple
After a long search we found the ticket booth and looked for a boat. The boat arrives from the previous lunch cruise. After a quick cleanup we were allowed to board. We were then escorted up a metal ladder to the top deck. Remember you have to climb a ladder to get to the top deck. Once seated at very uncomfortable wooden seats with strangers you are given a free drink. Dinner arrives later. The dinner is good. A man sings and plays guitar as you enjoy your dinner. If you later need to use a restroom they are on the lower deck, are old disgusting marine toilets and not at all clean. The view of the Maui coastline is beautiful. I can't imagine what happens if it rains. No shelter. Not at all worth $ 200 plus dollars. Not sure how old the boat is but it sure looks it.

My husband and I had a fantastic time on the sunset dinner cruise!
Honestly, we were happy to be on the ocean and enjoy the beautiful sunset. We were pleasantly surprised with the dinner, drinks, and excellent service. The crew was friendly, helpful, and just fantastic—especially the captain who went over and beyond finding whales for us to see. The singer/guitar player was outstanding. We enjoyed dancing on the bough of the boat.
Thank you for helping to make our first trip to Maui more memorable!
