Fantastic evening
Meri and I had a fantastic evening aboard the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. The food was absolutely exquisite, with the lobster and fillet being particular highlights. Every course was delicious, and the service was impeccable — friendly, attentive and professional. Watching the beautiful Hawaiian sunset while enjoying such a wonderful dinner made the evening truly special. It was a memorable experience from start to finish, and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommended!

NOT WORTH TIME NOR MONEY
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, NOR YOUR TIME. We went on October 1, 2026 and was looking forward to the adventure. First, take your credit card that you paid with the cruise with you (a receipt is not enough to prove you paid for it). Second, we were not allowed to have a table for 2 because we did not pay extra (but there were a few empty tables and the lower deck was empty. When we sat down the 'stage' light was in my husband's face and it seemed to be a bother to adjust it, but they seated us. Third, don't ask your waiter for a glass of water....you paid upwards of $350 for a 5 course meal but you have to get up and get your own water. Fourth, not all of the waiters are tip-worthy (ours (Jo) was less than enthusiastic about waiting on us. Fifth, your meal is already planned (from appetizer to desert), you have no choices at all. And the beef tenderloin is served they way they cook it. The added photo is how mine came out. It was still cold on the inside and the outer layer did NOT even make a good brand mark on the beef. I'm from Texas and couldn't eat the raw meat. The desert was mango mousse cake, not my choice for a Hawaiian desert. How about something pineapple-y. The Polynesian entertainment was worthy of an ovation. The young man and lady that was on the side stage were phenomenal. Even with them being really good, I will not recommend this company to any one. If we did not pay in advance and a no refund policy, we would have walked out when we were told you have to get your own water at the very beginning. Oh, I almost forgot. The free 'champagne' toast is non-alcoholic juice. What a joke!!!!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Honolulu.
How much does Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show cost?
+
Prices start at $193 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Honolulu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Honolulu is not rushed.
Is Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 1,512 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Honolulu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show?
+
Around 529 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Honolulu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Honolulu and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Honolulu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Honolulu?
+
Honolulu and greater Oahu run on early starts. Pearl Harbor memorial tickets release on a fixed schedule, the North Shore circle-island loop needs a full day, and the catamaran and snorkel runs off Waikiki fill fast in season. We rank on whether the operator secures Pearl Harbor entry themselves and how tight the circle-island itinerary really is. On Outty we rank every Honolulu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oahu: Full or Half Day Grand Circle Island Tour, Oahu Day Tour with Waterfalls Food Trucks and Lookout Points, Oahu Majestic Circle Island Tour with Waimea Falls and Byodo Inn. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Honolulu?
+
April to June and September to November, between the wet season and peak crowds. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Honolulu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show?
+
Included: Two premium beverages; Live Hawaiian and jazz music; Welcome "Champagne" Toast; Hotel pick-up from select locations; and 2-hour Sunset Cruise (3-hour on Fridays). Not included: Gratuities; and Additional beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 7 listed pickup locations in and around Honolulu. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Honolulu: Three Star Deluxe Sunset Dinner Cruise and Show?
+
