My husband and I booked this dinner cruise on a whim. We are SO glad we did! We were immediately greeted by the incredibly friendly crew and then went to the top of the boat and took a seat. It was absolutely beautiful outside and the ambiance of the boat was perfect for honeymooners. There is new owners who just purchased this boat and have revamped everything, so it is freshly painted and has beautiful lighting all throughout.
It is BYOB, so make sure to bring your favorite beer, wine, or liquor. The bartender, Savannah, has your basic things like soda, orange juice, and pineapple juice, so she was able to mix us up a fruity cocktail with the liquor we brought.
We had such an amazing time. They served short ribs, mashed potatoes, and veggies. It was SO good! So flavorful and I am not much of a short ribs kind of person. My husband and I mainly hung out at the bar with Savannah and Kimberly and we had SO much fun! They told us about all the local spots to hit up and we just talked and laughed all night long.
The captain of the boat (I wish I could remember his name!) was SO wonderful! He was such a nice man and you can tell he has worked hard on making sure this boat is a great experience for everyone.
They were hosting a booze-cruise after our dinner cruise and we wanted to go so bad, but we drove to the marina and weren't sure how we would have gotten back to our hotel if we joined haha! Wish we could have though!

The boat was comfortable! The crew was outstanding and made sure that all the passengers had an amazing time. The boat left on time, and the crew made sure everyone got on and off safely. The views were outstanding. If the weather says the waves will be rough take some Dramamine.

Not only were the views beautiful, but the staff was all accommodating and extremely personable! The three course meal was amazing and timed perfectly. I have done other sunset cruises out of Waikiki and this one was by far the most enjoyable and relaxing. We also saw 4 whales on the cruise!
I give this cruise & it’s crew a 6/6!

This was a beautiful cruise with excellent customer service. Captain Johnny was the best. He called to help to provide directions and he made the trip a wonderful experience. He and his crew were great and the food was excellent. It was a wonderful evening that could not be matched. 5 star!!

Had a great time on the boat with me and my wife. Boat was easy to find, it's right on the beach where the instructions say it is. Crew was helpful and nice when we got on bored. Introducied themselves and made us feel welcome. The ride was super smooth, and being able to bring drinks on board was great. Highly recommend!!

The ride was so much fun! Me and my friends had a blast. The sunset was beautiful but since it’s winter time it does go down a little earlier. The crew were super friendly and the drinks were delicious

Had a great time. Crew was alot of fun. We loved Noah, and Fabio( his name isn't Fabio but that's what they call him.) Great soundtrack and yummy maitai's that flowed freely. It was at 25% capacity because we went 5 days after travel restrictions were lifted ...on the sunset cruise it didn't feel empty or like we were only getting part of the experience.( Most activities during corona felt that way)
And the scenery was incredible!
we had a great time and would definately go again!!!

Me and my boyfriend went during our stay in Waikiki and we had such a fantastic time. Even my boyfriend who is hesitant about boats/water activities loved it. The staff was so friendly and funny. It wasn't too crowded as a covid 19 precaution which was nice. And the mai tai's were 10/10.
Specific shoutout to Jeff on the crew. He made our trip even more amazing with some recommendations for hikes and food spots and he was just plain fun to talk to!

We went on our cruise last night and it was wonderful despite the fact that I got seasick. My husband and kids absolutely loved it. I was unable to eat my food but again, my hubby and kids said the food was amazing. The fish and short ribs were superb to them.
I regret not buying motion sickness meds. If you think you will get sick,please take meds a day prior and about 2 hours prior to your cruise. Now, about the staff. They are uhhmazinggg. They are very attentive and sweet. Make sure you have cash to tip them very good. Also, you need cash for the photographer if u want to buy your pictures.
It was nice meeting you folks, glad you had a good time.

I went on Prince Kuhio with friends and it was such a nice way to spend our Friday evening. It's the only dinner cruise that is open right now, and we were so happy with everything: service, dinner, boat. The overall vibe was friendly and chill, the crew was so nice, and dinner was served hot and had good portions. Also the generous slice of cheesecake was really good! They have a cute tiki onboard where you can order whatever you'd like. Only thing I'd recommend is to bring sea-sickness preventatives! I get seasick very easily so I made sure to take dramamine prior to the cruise and I am so thankful. We went on a day when the water was pretty rough and there was a lot of swell and although it was hard to walk around the deck, I didn't get seasick. I was very impressed with this dinner cruise and it's a great option if you want a change of scenery!
Glad you enjoyed the trip and the meal we enjoyed having you aboard.

My wife and I enjoyed a lovely evening on this board. The water was a bit bumpy but the captain sailed her right. Crew was on top of serving you drinks. I certainly recommend this cruise.

We kept searching for dinner cruises that were open with COVID. We found this one and we were so glad that we did. It was awesome. The mai tai was excellent and the food was delicious. The owner of the boat was very friendly. The staff was very attentive and friendly as well. We would very much recommend taking this cruise if you get the chance. We even sighted a whale even though it was way too early in the season.
Thank you for the nice review, it was nice meeting you folks. And the whales sighting this early I am still talking about it was awesome.
Aloha

This was the first activity/cruise my boyfriend and I went on since the pandemic started in March. Now that things on Oahu are opening up again we wanted to get out and have a nice evening. When we checked in on the beach, one of the crew members (wearing a mask) provided hand sanitizer and had us both sign in. Then we boarded and were served drinks right away (corona beer or maitais). Oahu's current regulations allow boats to carry 25% capacity on tours, so manu kai is allowed to have 12 passengers on board now. This actually made it really enjoyable because there was so much room to spread out across the catamaran. As for masks, the crew didn't enforce face masks or social distancing to any extent. The only time you were told to put on a mask was at check-in, boarding, and de-boarding. Once you're on the boat, you were told you didn't have to wear it and none of the crew members were wearing masks during the cruise. Overall I'd say they did the bare minimum, if that, for preventing the spread of coronavirus so I'd recommend going for a sunset cruise that is really putting in more effort to keep their guests and community safe.

ハワイ初日の夜に予約して行きました。
船内では楽しい歌とダンスで楽しませていただき、ドリンクもハワイらしくておしゃれでした。
写真も撮っていただき、すてきな思い出になりました。雰囲気ばっちりです!
ただ、お料理はそこまで期待しない方がいいかなと思います。ステーキはほぼ生肉レベルのレアで、食べ放題のカニもしょっぱいです。
ただ、それも気にならないぐらい楽しめるので行く価値はあります!接客して下さった方はとてもいい方でした。

The experience was amazing and would do it again with this crew. Captain and crew are amazing to talk to and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to see the sunset for an affordable price.
