Popular Opinion: MANA is the perfect place for your next meeting

At MANA Cruises + Charters, we are often celebrated as the backdrop for life’s most romantic moments—from sunset proposals to anniversary toasts. But the same tranquility and privacy that spark romance also foster something equally valuable: clarity and connection.

In today’s fast-paced business world, the most productive meetings rarely happen under fluorescent lights. They happen where the mind can expand. Whether you are looking to impress a prospective client or say “Mahalo” to your hardworking team, a private yacht charter offers an environment that a conference room simply cannot match.

We hope that you consider the possibility of having your next meeting out on the water.

The Ultimate “Closer” for Client Meetings

When the goal is to win over a prospective client, the setting speaks as loudly as the pitch. A private charter moves the negotiation away from a crowded restaurant and into a space of complete exclusivity.

• Uninterrupted Privacy: Discuss sensitive contracts or strategies with the confidence that you are the only guests on board.

• The “Wow” Factor: Hosting a meeting with the Waianae coastline or Diamond Head as your backdrop shows a level of effortless sophistication and hospitality.

• Culinary Excellence: Skip the steakhouse reservation. Our Captain’s Tasting Menu offers a fully-catered dining experience (or private chef experience) that allows you to bond over exceptional food without the noise of a dining hall.

• Secure Wifi: In need of Wifi to loop someone in via Zoom? Ask about options for the use of a VPN prior to booking.

Reconnecting Your “Office Ohana”

Team building is often viewed as a chore, but it shouldn’t be. True team bonding happens naturally when you remove the hierarchy of the office and share a genuine experience.

We recently updated our capacity to welcome groups of up to 10, making MANA Cruises the ideal venue for executive retreats and company outings. Drifting along the Leeward Coast allows your team to disconnect from emails and reconnect with each other. Whether it’s sharing a laugh while snorkeling with turtles or enjoying a sunset cocktail, these shared memories build a stronger, more cohesive culture back on land.

Tailored to Your Agenda

Find out why people think MANA is the perfect place for any special occassion, not just your next meeting.  We understand that corporate charters require a different flow than a vacation cruise. Our Charter Coordinators specialize in “handcrafting” itineraries that respect your schedule and goals.

• Flexible Atmosphere: We can keep the vibe refined and professional for meetings, or transition to high-energy fun for celebrations.

• Seamless Logistics: From transportation advice to dietary accommodations, our Charter Coordinators handle the details so you can focus on your guests.
