An evening or a nice occasion to spend for. Little overrated with respect to pricing but it’s worth it given you will get unobstructed and perfect sunset view on the pacific and that’s something special. Crew is nice and service is exceptional. Personalized experience with a photo as well. Entertainment with some live shows/performance and dance to look forward to. Food is average and very less options for vegetarians.

Save your money and don’t book this cruise. Although the staff is very lovely the cruise was NOT worth the money. The food was horrible, the smell on the boat was awful and the restrooms were dingy. The only “nice”part about this boat cruise was the top deck and even that wasn’t very enjoyable for the amount of time they keep you on the boat. I would recommend reading the one star reviews before you book and do yourself a favour/save money and book anything else but this.

We were there for a special occasion on Friday night for cruise and Fireworks. We started by being seated in an entire wrong location, we booked 5* and were seated in 3*, in a horrible small salon with 1 window behind us, nothing on either side. Then were fed overcooked lobster and weren’t even given Shell Cracker, when we asked for 1 each we were told it’s 1 per table. Then the bathroom was filled with vomit, COCK ROACHES ALSO on board. Lobster was so overcooked you couldn’t chew it. After all of this there were no Fireworks at all. ONLY SAVING GRACE WAS ROSE. The manager. Even 1 of the captains was super Drunk, telling inappropriate jokes and bragging about nurses from Japan flirting with him, beyond unprofessional!!!! Capt that was drunk was Stephen!!! Then we call for refund and they refuse!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!!! It’s a joke of a dinner cruise.

Very attentive and welcoming staff. We went out on a night that the sea's got rather rough and the staff was very accommodating to everyone's specific needs. The jazz music was very nice and we really enjoyed the food of the 5 star signature package.
