Our family (my wife, myself, our 3 sons and 2 daughters in law) had a great cruise on this private yacht. The crew was outstanding and looked after our every need. We cruised and then stopped for an hour long swim. We enjoyed a few Mai Tai's and really loved the hot tub. Overall a great experience which we would highly recommend.

We had a very special sunset cruise on the evening of November 3rd onboard the Makani Catamaran! I think we ended up with 22 in our Navy reunion group and it was the last of four events we had this weekend. Our crew was very professional and friendly. It was a smooth cruise from start to finish. The guys are great bartenders and my Mai Tai was outstanding! The views of Honolulu, Diamond Head and the sunset were amazing! I would strongly recommend this private cruise to any group of 20 to 49 people. Thanks Captain C for an amazing experience!

When looking at activities for our honeymoon, we were definitely looking for an on the water experience. There are lots of options in regards to sunset or fireworks(every friday) but most of them seemed to include having to be on a boat with many other families. While we are not opposed to spending time with strangers and getting to meet people, we really wanted to have a "next level" experience where we had pictures to share and memories to make.
Pau Hana sailing delivered on every single level. Captain Austin made sure our experience was one to remember. He helped us take pictures and was an absolute gem to spend two hours with.
Considering the pricing to be on our own private charter was only slightly more than being on one with tons of other families, there was absolutely no downside. I cannot recommend Pau hana sailing enough.
When we come back for an anniversary we will absolutely be booking again. Mahalo!

親子3世代9名の家族旅行でチャーターしました。
2時間コースで申し込みましたが、船上でのんびりしたり食事をすることができ、丁度良い時間でした。
ただ、船上での食事を長めにとる場合は、もう少し長いコースの方がよいかもしれません。
テイクアウトした食事や飲み物を持参して乗り込みましたが、カトラリー類は十分用意されていましたし、冷たい飲料水の提供もあり助かりました。
クーラーボックスも設置されているので、飲み物やフルーツなどは冷やしておくこともできます。
トイレは2か所ありました。
ベビーカーも積み込むことができました。
使用してはいませんが、電子レンジ(オーブン?!)もありました。
船上からはワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見ることができます。
特に屋外で寝転がりながらパノラマビューを見ながら過ごす時間は最高でした!
船は出発時刻の15分くらい前に桟橋にやってきました。
桟橋付近にはターミナルのような待つ場所がないので、あまり早めに行かない方がいいかもしれません。
Mahalo for such a nice review! It looks like you had a beautiful day out on the water. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo, Mariah

The boat crew was extremely helpful and nice. My group of friends and I had a great time hanging out on the boat and watching the sunset. I would recommend booking a private catamaran like this one if you have a larger group and you want a more intimate setting. Will definitely do this again the next time I'm in Hawaii!

The staff was great, however unfortunately, due to other people drinking on the boat & a lot of motion sickness, there was a lot of throw up Incidents which caused the whole ride to be unpleasant and rather disgusting. Not to mention, we had to takeoff our shoes so I hope I didn’t step on anything…. When I originally booked, I noticed drinks and appetizers would be provided, but there is only one option to choose from(food).
If you book, make sure you take some dramamine, even if you don’t think you have motion sickness.
The good news is that we got to sunset on our way back to the pier.

An amazing experience that really can’t be replicated on land! Being on the water for a sunset makes it so magical, I’ll never get over the vastness of the ocean. Not that it needs to be said, but the sunset was beautiful.
The crew is excellent. They know exactly what they’re doing and are very accommodating and check in on you regularly without making you feel checked in on ‘too much’. The drinks are strong and tasty! The appetizer was more like a meal, and was delicious, especially for a bulk prep-made food item; we had a chicken sandwich (with actual chicken thigh) on a purple potato or ube bun!
There is music playing for the whole ride, so if you’re noise sensitive get there early so you can be one of the first on the boat to pick your spot (don’t sit inside where the bar is - that’s the noisiest spot). With that said, if you’re focusing on the beautiful scenery, the noise sort of fades away into the background, anyway.
We had an amazing time, and will do it again next time we are in Waikiki area.

口コミがなく少し心配だったのですが
なんで口コミないのかなってぐらいに最高な時間でした!
同僚10人で3月に行きましたが、スタッフのおふたりも最高!パーティーも最高!クジラも見れたし
思い出に残る本当にいい時間を過ごさせてもらいました!
ハワイの3月の夕方~夜はまだ少し肌寒く、
特に海に出ると風邪も強かったです。
泳ぐこともできる※シャワーまでついてます!ので、水着の上に濡れてもいいような長袖を着るのがおすすめです!
ご飯と飲み物は持ち込みましたが、お皿もカトラリーもカップも氷もなにもかも揃っていましたし、
お菓子はカゴにいれてくれてとっても可愛くしてくださいました!
スタッフさん1名は少し日本語を話してくれます❤︎

家族10人での貸し切りクルーズで快適でした。まずは入り江でウミガメを発見!その後海に出ると、イルカの群れが船の周りにまで来てくれて、たっぷり見ることができました。その後クジラを探しに沖まででて、クジラも見ることができ最高でした。
シュノーケリングのポイントまで移動する間にスナックもいただいて快適なクルージングでした。
船着き場にトイレがあり着替えもそこでできたようなので着替えを持っていけば良かったと思いました。

Absolutely LOVED this trip!! We did the 11am-3pm time block and it was perfect. The inside cabin was also air-conditioned. And, yes, the hot tub was perfect too!
We brought our own snacks and drinks since we knew it was a longer 4-hour trip. Snorkel equipment was included for those of us that wanted to snorkel.
The boat was HUGE (74ft!) so we had plenty of space. We brought our own smaller speaker which was great for lounging on the bow of the boat.

The sunset view was beautiful and the crew was nice, but when I booked a cocktail cruise, I wasn’t expecting a boat full of children. There was a group of over 30 that had around 15 children with them and they took up all of the seating. One spilled a sticky drink down my husband’s leg. I love children, but like I said, I wasn’t expecting it due to the advertisement of this being a cocktail cruise. I will read more carefully before I book a similar cruise in the future.

The Royal Hawaiian Catamaran boat charter is now my absolute favorite activity on Oahu. This charter will satisfy so many different goals for island experience - sailing, snorkeling, swimming, relaxing in the shade, and learning about Hawaii. One thing that sets this tour above others is their commitment to the reef and water. They don't overcrowd the boat and there is no plastic used onboard. I really appreciated the balance between hosting tourists and stewarding their natural resources. Captain Shane, Cassidy and Gio went above and beyond to make our experience one to be remembered forever. They listened to us and provided excellent options to allow us to make the most of our charter. I liked it so much that I booked my second trip for later in the year already.
