All Reviews for Romantic Things to Do in Oahu

Although I arrived early at the location with a rental car, there was a road closure due to an accident just 1 kilometer away, and I couldn't make it on time for my reservation. I was unsure when the closure would be lifted, and in my frustration, I called the phone number listed on the voucher. I explained the situation, but due to my poor English, they initially thought I was lost. Eventually, I conveyed that it was a road closure, but they told me they couldn't help since I wasn't speaking to the reservation department, which made me realize the drawbacks of online booking. I had no choice but to turn back for a while, and when I returned later, the road was open. I went to the location and explained the situation, and after consulting with the intermediary company over the phone, they agreed to let me join the next session. (By the way, I was told that cancellations were not possible.)

The horseback riding was with two Japanese families and an Australian family. The instructions were given in very fast English, but it seemed manageable even for elementary school children. They provided helmets, so there was no need for riding hats, but since the path went through narrow trees, long pants are essential. I wore a short-sleeved shirt, but since branches might scratch you, I recommend wearing long sleeves if you're concerned.

Despite the accident, the local staff (two women) were kind, and riding along the beach was a wonderful experience. However, the restroom situation is poor, so I recommend using the facilities before you go.

レンタカーで現地に早めに行ったものの、あと１キロのところで事故による道路の封鎖があり、予約の時間に行けませんでした。封鎖がいつ解かれるかもわからず、困ってバウチャー記載の電話番号に電話し、事情を話しても（英語が拙かったせいで最初は道に迷ったと思われてしまいましたが、最終的には道路の封鎖だと伝わりました）予約担当じゃないからわからないと言われてしまい、ネット予約のデメリットを痛感しました。仕方なくいったん引き返して時間を置いて戻ったところ、道が通れるようになっていたので、現地に行き、事情を話したら、電話で仲介会社（？）と相談の上、次の回に入れてくれることになりました。（ちなみにキャンセルはできないと言われました。）
乗馬は日本人家族２組とオーストラリア人の家族と一緒でした。説明はとっても早口の英語でしたが、小学生くらいのお子さんでも大丈夫な感じでした。ヘルメットを貸してくれるので、乗馬用の帽子は必要ありませんでしたが、狭い木々の間の道を通るので、長いズボンは必須です。私は半祖袖を着ていましたが、枝で切ってしまうかもしれないので、心配な方は長袖の着用をおすすめします。
アクシデントはありましたが、現地のスタッフ（女性２名）は親切でしたし、ビーチ沿いを馬に乗って歩くのは素晴らしい体験でした。
なお、トイレ事情は悪いので、済ませてから行かれることをおすすめします。

Was everything that we expected and much more. Good food, great entertainment and a lot of fun. My husband and I went on this fabulous cruise not only for dinner and entertainment but for the beautiful sunset that occurs off the shores of Oahu. Would highly recommend this for everyone...couples, families, and singles!

Great boat, Great food we had the steak and lobster. Beautiful dancing and entertainment.If your in the area I recommend this for any one.

As you check in and arrive to the pier, you will be entertained with a Hula performance. You will then be directed with a pleasantly helpful staff to seat you with your tossed salad ready to be consumed. Also you will then receive a welcome Mai Tai which is very addicting and may cause you to purchase more. I had 4 of them. The all you can eat crab legs, steak, and macadamia nut ice cream was amazing. As the sun started to set, I found myself in a very relaxing area of the top deck. I was taking in the views of the ocean, land, and skies as I was just about ready to call it a night. Until we just about to reach the dock, all their employees started a party and danced like crazy. My date is not much of a dancer, but she enjoyed watching me entertain everyone. This night was a night to remember especially the service provided the staff on board. They will make sure you are always satisfied.

Despite the ship having to return to port because of rough water we had a wonderful time. The drinks were good and the food was delicious. The lobsters were delicious and the steak was about the most tender and tasty steak I have ever had. The music and show were great.I was very appreciative that one of the dancers took a picture with me after the show. The staff was eapecialy helpfull and particularly your assitant manager.The Star of Honolulu was the highlight of our trip to Hawaii. We would definitely do it again. Highly recommended.

Very fun. Dinner was amazing. Show was amazing, crew was amazing. Very fun and I will do this again when I come back to Oahu.

At the end of July, I participated in the "Horseback Riding in Hawaii! North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience at Hawaii Polo Club" plan. My husband and I joined together. We were both anxious since we couldn't speak English, but the staff member, Alex, kindly explained everything in simple English at a slow pace, which we really appreciated.

The horseback riding experience was amazing! I was able to hold the reins myself and, although it was slow, I enjoyed the beautiful coastline, which was even more stunning than the sea in Waikiki. It was truly the best time.

The horses were well-trained, and I felt no fear at all. There was also a family of foreigners with us, including a girl around 10 years old who was riding for the first time, and she seemed to have a lot of fun! I also recommend this place because the riding experience lasts longer than at other facilities. There were three female staff members, and they were all very kind.

At the end, we took commemorative photos with the beautiful sea in the background, and it was truly a wonderful experience! I plan to use this service again when I go to Hawaii!

Lastly, I have to mention… when I heard "Polo Club," I imagined a luxurious facility, but in reality, it was more like a farm (laughs). The waiting area was a small outdoor shed, and the restroom was a portable toilet. But that didn't matter because I highly recommend it!

７月末に
《ハワイで乗馬！ ノースショア海辺乗馬体験　ハワイ・ポロ･クラブ》プランに参加しました。
夫婦での参加。
二人とも英語が話せないので不安だったのですが、スタッフの女の子（アレックスちゃん）が 一生懸命簡単な英語でゆっくり説明してくれたのでとてもありがたかったです。

乗馬体験は最高‼︎‼︎
自分で手綱を引き、ゆっくりではありますが ワイキキの海より美しい海岸沿いを眺めながら
本当に最高の時間を過ごせました。

馬もよく調教されていて 恐怖感はまったくありませんでした。
私達の他に 外国人のご家族も一緒で、乗馬初体験の10歳くらいの女の子もいましたが とても楽しんでいましたよ！
他の乗馬体験ができる施設よりも
体験できる時間が長いところもオススメですね♫
スタッフは女性が３人でしたが みなさんとても親切でした。
最後には美しい海をバックに 記念撮影もして頂き、本当に素晴らしい最高の体験ができました‼︎
またハワイに行く際は利用しようと思います‼︎
最後にひとつだけ…
ポロクラブ…と聞いて、豪華な施設を勝手に思い描いていましたが（笑）実際は農場のような所です（笑）
待合室となる所は屋外の小屋で、
おトイレも仮設トイレ。
でもそんなの関係なくなるくらい、オススメですよ！

We all loved our ride with Cammie. She was a great guide and we can't wait to go back for another ride.

We had family visiting from the mainland, so we went for a ride along the beach and had an absolutely fabulous time!

It was a pleasant experience to ride horses slowly along the beach. I was a bit nervous since it was my first time riding, but the two female instructors were kind and guided me well. In the end, I felt a sense of unity with the horse! It became a valuable experience.

浜辺をゆっくり乗馬する気持ちの良い体験でした。初めての乗馬で緊張気味だったけど、女性二人のインストラクターが優しく指導してくれ、最後は馬との一体感も感じられたような！？貴重な体験になりました。

I drove to Polo Club by rental car, but I missed the sign and almost entered a different riding club next door, which was a close call. I was prepared based on everyone's posts, but I found that no one spoke Japanese at all. However, a kind female staff member explained everything to me multiple times, so it was okay. There was no practice or anything; we just started right away, and I was nervous at first, but the horses were very gentle, and I got used to it quickly. I thought everything would be along the coast, but we also went through some grassy areas, so I think it's better for those who are concerned to wear long pants. Walking by the seaside was truly pleasant, like a scene from a movie. I wished I had more time by the sea, but I learned that this company is the only one that allows you to walk along the coast, so I had a valuable riding experience and really enjoyed it.

ポロクラブまでレンタカーで行きましたが、看板に気づかずに通り過ぎてしまい、
隣の違う乗馬クラブに入りそうになって危なかったです。
みなさんの投稿で覚悟はしていましたが、日本語は全く通じません。
でも、現地スタッフの女性が優しく何度も説明してくれるので大丈夫でした。
練習もなにもなく、いきなりスタートで最初は緊張しましたが、とてもおとなしい馬ばかりですぐに慣れました。
全部が海沿いなのかと思っていましたが、途中草むらの中も入ったりしたので、気になる人は長ズボンの方がいいと思います。
海辺を歩いている時は本当に気持ちよく、映画のワンシーンのようでした。
もっともっと海辺の時間が欲しかったですが、海沿いを歩けるのはこちらの会社だけとのことで、貴重な乗馬体験ができて楽しかったです。

We chose this ride/trail to see a different side to the North Shore (in comparison to Turtle Bay) AND we'd heard great things about the tour guides and horses - we weren't let down - it was GREAT FUN and we LOVED IT!!!! Highly recommend...

Great and relaxing ride near the ocean. Lovely guide. We would do it again.

Highly recommend! I've been to Hawaii multiple times and this was my first time on this dinner cruise. The views of Waikiki from the boat are a must. The show was great and so was the food.

The food was great, but the service was fantastic! Brina really made out night special! Thank you so much!

Had a great time! Would recommend to everyone! Show was way better than we expected! Dinner was great! Views were incredible!

This time, we participated as a couple again. No matter how many times we visit, Gunstock is the best! We ride outside in the mountains, and when I requested to canter because I love it, they let us do it multiple times in places suitable for cantering. The horses are very well trained, and I was very satisfied.

今回も夫婦ふたりでの参加でした。
何度訪れてもガンストックさんは最高です♪
山の中を外乗するのですが、駈歩大好きだとお願いすると
駈歩できそうな場所では何度もやってくれます。
お馬たちもとても調教されていてとっても満足できました。

Horseback riding on the beautiful beach was amazing. The horses were participating in a polo match, but they were calm, and I felt safe riding them. I heard there was a polo match on Sunday, and I wanted to go see it if I had the time, but unfortunately, I couldn't. Riding in such beautiful scenery felt refreshing, and I really enjoyed it!

きれいなビーチでの乗馬は最高。ポロ試合に出ている馬たちだったがおとなしく、安心して乗っていられました。日曜日にポロ試合があると言っていたので時間があれば観に行きたかったが、かなわず残念。美しい景色の中での乗馬は心が洗われるようで、楽しかったです♪

We participated as a family of four. Although there were four adults, it was everyone's first experience walking along the beach on horseback, and we all got really excited. The instructor was also kind and spoke to us in English. Each horse had its own personality, and there were some unexpected moments, like when a horse wouldn't move, but it was a very enjoyable activity that allowed us to connect with living creatures. When we go to Hawaii again, we definitely want to do this!

家族４人で参加しました。
大人４人でしたが、海辺を馬に乗りながら歩くのは初めての体験で全員がはしゃいでしまいました。インストラクターのお姉さんも優しく英語で話しかけてくれました。
馬によって性格も様々で、馬がなかなか進まないなどハプニングもありましたが、生き物との触れ合いならではのアクティビティでとても楽しめました。
またハワイに行くときは、絶対にやりたいです！！

I always rely on Gunstock when I go to Oahu. Usually, it's just my husband and me, but this time we were with other foreign guests. Since there were six of us, I thought we wouldn't be able to canter, but my expectations were exceeded. We had a great time cantering, and I was very satisfied.

オアフに行くといつもお世話になるガンストックさん♪
いつもは夫婦ふたりでが多かったのですが今回は他の外国の方も一緒でした。
６人一緒だったので駈歩(キャンター）はしないかな・・・って諦めていましたが、期待を裏切りません。楽しく駈歩できて満足満足でした。

Trail riding for the perfect amount of time. The horses were magnificent athletes and very well mannered. More trail than beach. We could have done without the trailblazing through prickers. We could see the ocean the whole time though and saw whales breaching in the distance.

Everything was well managed even from the purchase on line of tickets. Pickup was on time in topscale bus. Staff was dressed in 1st class attire. Greeting by staff at dock was nice. Seating was fine with exception of sun shining directly in my husband eyes . it was a little distracting. Dinner and the drinks was great, along with the service. The entertainment after dinner was fantastic. Truly, truly mesmerizing.
Would recommend without hesitation.

Yassi our guide was excellent and so much fun, this was a gift from my friend Kathy for my 50th birthday! I've always wanted to do a horseback ride on the beach, & San Diego really didn't have any options, so when we planned our trip to Oahu we had to do this! We googled horse back riding on the beach & picked this one immediately. The ride was relaxing and so pretty, we rode polo ponies and they were beautiful and matched perfectly with us, mine was named Chaser! can't wait to come back & do it again! Aloha & Mahalo

great entertainment and food. it was very enjoyable. the kids loved it.

Such a fun evening. Great food, drinks, entertainment, and service! Would highly recommend.

We both are experience riders so it was a little tame for us. All you do is get to walk the horses. But it was a beautiful relaxing ride. You dont get to ride right on the beach, but more on the edge of the sand duns and through a field of flowers. Our guide was excellent and the horses are very well trained and friendly. They do show you a brief demonstration on how to guide your horse with the reins as they are polo ponies and not your traditional western horses. And as a safety precaution every one wears a helmet. Overall, it was a nice ride.

The lady delivering the leis was very nice and most accomodating that she even walked with us to ensure that we found the baggage area.
My wife loved her lei as this was her first time to Hawaii. Mine was very nice too!
Would order from them again and again!!

The ride was everything I could ask for and more. One of my favourite things I did while in Hawaii.

We had a lot of fun riding along the beach and through the woods. Horses were matched with experience of rider and guide was knowledgeable. Great time!

We alway do the star of Honolulu. Dinner is awesome. Lobster mmmm. Drinks. A little dancing at the end. With a great view
