My husband and I did this cruise for our last night in Kona. The food was good and the service was great. They had a vegetarian curry for me which was very good! The wait staff was wonderful and very attentive and came around to take pictures too. We got to see a lot of spinner dolphins and the historical guide was very informative. Great experience and definitely recommend. Oh and the sunset was breathtaking!

Aloha TuttiandTaco, We are so happy to read that you had great time with us on your last night in Kona! All of our recipes are made in house and we are so happy to read that you thought our curry was very good! Sunset is my favorite time of day and I could not agree with you more that seeing it out on the water adds something extra special to its glory! We are very grateful for your recommendation! Thanks for joining us and the five star review! We hope to see you again someday soon!

We very much enjoyed this sunset dinner cruise! The crew was reincredibly helpful and friendly and made the trip extremely comfortable. Our historical guide pointed out a number of very interesting spots along the ride and shared really great facts and stories! Additionally the musical accompaniment was very nice. We enjoyed the dinner and caught a beautiful sunset as well!! One note - we got a rough day on the sea and my husband who is prone to getting sick was not feeling great. They said it was pretty rare, but still something worth noting! That being said, the crew was super attentive to him and offered ginger chews and ginger ale to help get him feeling better again!

Aloha kaylamD2253UJ, Mahalo for joining us and leaving a five star review! We are very grateful! It's so great to read that we hit all our high marks for providing our guests with a lovely evening! It's unfortunate that your husband experienced sea sickness. While we are always happy to help in any way possible, additionally we recommend that if you are aware that you have the propensity to get sea sick, it's always best to take a Dramamine or Bonine at least an hour before boarding. Thanks again kaylamD2253UJ for joining us and your kind words!
