The 47 foot catamaran sailboat is immaculate. The crew is friendly and professional. The open bar features top shelf liquor. The food is fresh, delicious and remarkably healthy. What’s not to like about Mana cruises? What’s not to love? I have been on more than 20 private sailing charters in my life and this cruise out of Ko Olina is among the top two. I’ll explain why it’s not the best ever later. First the crew keeps the boat in immaculate condition. It is 20 years old, but looks brand new. Gorgeous interiors and a beautiful array of seating. This boat can easily hold 15-20 passengers, but they limit guests to six. It makes for a wonderfully intimate and pampered experience. Everyone is treated like a VIP. We began our morning with mimosas and a safety briefing. Then Captain Daniel went over the itinerary with us. He also offered choices, so we could change it, if we desired. We chose sailing, snorkeling, fishing, drinking and gorging ourselves on fresh wraps, fruit, cheeses a

This was hands down the best part of our trip to Hawaii! We did a lot of cool things but this one raises all the way to the top of the list. Captain Daniel and Emmanuela were awesome! They took us to a really cool snorkeling site where we saw tons of fish, star fish, turtles, sea cucumber and even a white tip reef shark! On our way back saw a bunch of dolphins. This will be one perfect birthday I will remember forever! Thank you Captain Daniel, Emmanuela and Mana Cruises!!

My family and I had the pleasure of sailing with Captain Jacob and Olivia! They delivered the utmost hospitality and made us feel at home. It was a beautiful and fun filled day! We snorkeled with beautiful fish and saw a few turtles! We enjoyed every minute of the trip!! If you want to have an experience of a lifetime I highly recommend booking a day with Mana! We definitely will be sailing with them again! A hui hou!!!

I cannot recommend this charter enough. We did a private morning snorkel cruise with our kids. From now on we will be booking for the whole day. The crew was awesome and really catered to the kids to make sure they got the full experience and saw as much sea life as possible. Captain Daniel and his crew were top notch and made sure we were well taken care of. We will be booking a cruise every trip with them. Awesome trip and can’t say thank you enough for showing the kids the time of their life.

I'm embarrassed that I never left a review for this!! I meant to, and must have forgotten. I STILL think about how awesome this was-and man, I hope to one day go again. I cannot highly recommend this ENOUGH. I went with my husband on a day trip for our honeymoon, and another couple joined us. I thought the guys were phenomenal and mind you, this was over a year ago and I HAD to write a review. They even recommended a restaurant in our hotel, that we had not considered going to, and OH MY GOODNESS, another memorable time was had there. Seriously, if you are on the fence about this, BOOK IT. It is hands down worth every penny. I adored this and my husband and I still say this was the best thing from our trip :). Thank you so much-and my sincerest apologies for taking forever to review this! ***We did not travel anywhere in 2020, just a heads up, this is for our trip in October 2019***
