Star of Honolulu

This was me and my husband's first dinner cruise. Pros: The staff was delightful and helpful. The views were wonderful and we were lucky to have a whale swim by and say hello. We were on the middle level. Now for the cons: I thought our table seating was uncomfortably close. There was barely elbow room between the 2 person tables. The food was alright, not a huge variety but good for the price. The performance was lacking, the main performer had a look on her face like she hated her job and the audience watching her. The fireworks were great but I really wish they would provide more seating throughout the ship. There was only a handful of chairs on the top level that were taken right away. I wouldn't do this cruise again but I am happy that we tried it! Also I didn't realize a big ship would rock so much but it did! We saw quite a few people with sea sickness and it made me super dizzy walking around. I'm not a germaphobe but something about the rails on the ship really grossed me out. They felt super dirty to me and I had to hold them to not fall over. Please keep in mind that I am a hard person to please and I have no doubt that most people would enjoy this cruise more than I did.

I was unsure weather to book this because i have picky eaters. The options to customize for them isn't there so be aware. That being said the staff was great as well as the entertainment. The food was lacking in my opinion but the drinks were great. The only reason i give 3 stars is because of the "bugs" that emerged after dinner. Despite all that we still had a great time. The views of the shore were some of the best we have seen yet.

I am not sure if this was our server's first time, but she definitely struggled. It took a good 20-30 minutes just to get water for the table. They really need to leave a carafe of water on the table or have 1-2 people just filling up glasses of water. We asked her for other drinks throughout the night to use up our drink tickets which also took a long time. She kept forgetting things and had to come back. The food was okay, but it would have been nice to have a kid's meal with PB&J or something. The steak was extremely rare/undercooked so I couldn't eat it. I'm not a lobster fan so I did not eat that either. The salad was already made and on a plate when we walked on the boat. I wasn't sure if it was for show or to eat, but I am not a fan of warm lettuce so I didn't eat that either. The drinks were good when we eventually got them. The dessert was different, but pleasant. This should go without saying, but the windows were open to allow the nice ocean breeze to pass through so just make sure you have your things secured! There were name tags and paper flying everywhere! The entertainment was the highlight of the whole thing. The Friday night fireworks were a nice bonus! I wouldn't do this again with this company, but I would look for another company to try out.

We went all out and did the 5 star trip. If you drink pay for the transportation service its not that much more and you don't have to worry about driving or parking. Upon arrival the charm gets turned on. Your greeted at the boat and when you walk on your put in an elevator up to the top. From their your greeted by 1 of the 2 captains and then given a meet and greet and photo op. You get a drink and a few appetizers to choose from then you are escorted to you table. It's a 7 course meal. Most of it is good but some items are too taste. Your given 6 drink coupons but watch out. Non- alcoholic counts and well as softdrinks. Entertainment is also good. Motion of the boat is almost unnoticeable unless your looking at a reference point. Time flies but they will serve drinks until you walk off. They depart from the lowest level first then towards the top so you can still drink while docked. Amazing trip.

The whale watching was fun and the ship was nice. However the food was awful. They gave us a bagel that wasn't even toasted and it was salty. I would say it's worth going but not getting any snacks.

This was a nice experience. The food tasted great and was well prepared. They did a great job dealing with my food allergy and were pleasant throughout. The entertainment was nice and the fireworks display was a good finish to the night. Also, the views from the ship were breathtaking.

Great service, great food, great experience. Had a wonderful time with my family here. Complimentary Mai Tai was made perfectly every time, crab legs were soft and juicy, steak was cooked well done, and grilled chicken was a little dry. Live performance was great and specifically one of the male dancers had so much energy he was dancing at 110%. Definitely one of the places you should experience when visiting Hawaii.

Food was awesome! They had lobster, steak and an entire spread for the course. Salad was really good too. The lobster comes out whole so ask for help if you don’t know how to crack it! The dessert and great too! The dancing was beautiful and luau style. Definitely go if you get the chance!

We highly recommend the luxury 5 star sunset cruise. Initially, we thought about only doing the deluxe cruise but the luxury cruise exceeded our expectations. You will be sitting on the top floor of the cruise in a more private and intimate setting compared to the other dinner options. You will have the opportunity to try so many dishes including lobster, caviar, beef Wellington, etc. Our night was full of beautiful memories with live jazz, singers and outstanding sunset views of Waikiki beach.

Highly Recommend! We ordered the Lobster Steak Dinner for my Mother’s final dinner on her Hawaiian stay and it was Amazing! We were so excited we forgot to take the food out of the boxes! The density of the lobster is perfect and the Quality of the meat is excellent. It’s a Four course meal mango dessert included so you are very full and Happy! There is also a QR code that sends you to their own Hula show that you can watch online while you eat. It felt like you are front stage at a luau eating a four course lobster steak meal! It’s a very intimate and flavorful dinner!l—and might cost double in or at a restaurant. Five Stars!
