All Reviews for Romantic Things to Do in Oahu

A wonderful event that my husband and kiddos all loved- a memory made together!

This was our last night in Hawaii and this was the perfect way to end it. The setup was excellent and very cute. Jenny and Joshua were awesome host. They had everything setup made it really easy to find them. The food was also very good we ate pretty the whole charcuterie board. Overall it was a good experience to do, would recommend it.

It was overall an enjoyable experience. I had minor gripes I don’t recall anyone asking how we would like our steak cooked, some were medium, some were medium rare, I know it was a busy day but we found a hair. I enjoyed the drink selection and the bartender did a great job. The servers and staff were great. It was rather warm and it wasn’t until the way back that someone decided to open the “plastic windows” to allow more of a breeze. The Luau portion was just as enjoyable as everything else. I truly had a great time, and would definitely recommend.

The upgraded cruise was well worth it for us, the food was divine!

Although the weak yen has resulted in considerable expenses, since I was going to board anyway, I booked a 5-star experience with fireworks on Friday and a course meal.

From the moment I boarded, I was guided to a special floor via the elevator, and the dinner set was nicely arranged at my seat, creating an excellent atmosphere.

Of course, the sunset was beautiful, and after the luxurious meal, there was a dinner show, followed by the fireworks viewed from the ship, which were breathtaking. Everyone moved to the side where the fireworks could be seen, making the boat feel like it was tilting a bit (laughs).

It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Hawaii. I highly recommend the 5-star experience!

円安でかなりの出費にはなりますが、どうせ乗船するなら、金曜日の花火付きで、コース料理も食べられる5スターを予約しました。

乗船する時から、エレベーターでの特別フロアへのご案内、席にはディナーセットがきちんと用意され、雰囲気も抜群。

サンセットはもちろんのこと、豪華なお食事の後はディナーショー、そして船上から見る花火は、圧巻でした。みんな花火が見える方に移動するので、気持ち船が傾いているような(笑)

ハワイ観光の良い思い出になりました。
5スター、おすすめです！

It was a beautiful evening on the ocean. The sunset was hidden behind clouds but you could see the rays from the sun peaking thru. The food was flavorful and an abundance of it. With a tremendous variety to choose from.

Star of Honolulu Sunset Cruise was amazing! My group had an awesome time, food was delicious, show was amazing as well. I was hoping for an actual Luau with the fire show. The service was great, very welcoming. Highly recommended!

Boarding Day: Friday
Boarding Course: 5 Star

If you're going to board, it's best to do so on a Friday when the Hilton fireworks are held. The fireworks themselves last about 5 minutes, but the combination of the night view of Waikiki and the fireworks from the sea is breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the sunset was not very impressive due to the clouds. I guess that's just luck...
However, the dinner was extremely delicious.
Also, the live performance was great.
I had previously boarded a 3 Star cruise, but I think I will only choose 5 Star in the future.
While it is more expensive compared to 3 Star, you should definitely go for 5 Star.

乗船曜日:金曜
乗船コース:5スター

乗船するなら、ヒルトンの花火が行われる金曜です。花火自体は5分程度ですが、海上からワイキキの夜景と花火のコラボは絶景です。
サンセットは雲があり、感動する感じではなかったのが残念でした。こればかりは運かと…。
でも、ディナーが非常に美味しかったです。
また、生演奏がよかった。
以前に3スターに乗船したことありましたが、今後は5スターしか選ばないと思います。
3スターに比べれば値は張りますが、5スターにすべきです。

It was a lovely experience! Crew was amazing and entertainment was fun. Food was also very good. Only issue I had was I ordered 2 Mai tias. One alcoholic ,one non alcoholic and they charged me same price for each…$10 a piece. I do not think a drink that only contained fruit juice and no alcohol should have been the same price.
Other then that, it was a beautiful cruise

Yummy food and beautiful Hawaii views out your boat window! Can't go wrong

Super fun. Lovely ship. Friendly crew. Yummy food. Beautiful dance show. Just do it!

Our server, Danny brought great energy and had exceptional hospitality service. Good experience and perfect to enjoy with family.

It was my first cruise, and I had a great time. The only regret was that a hurricane was approaching, so I couldn't see the sunset. Also, the lobster was not as impressive as I expected (laughs). Overall, I think it was good.

初めてのクルーズでしたがとても楽しかったです。
残念だったのがハリケーンが近づいててサンセットが見られなかったのが心残りでした。
それとロブスターがおもってたよりショボかったですね(笑)
まぁ、総合的には良かったと思います。

We used this service to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We had a bow renewal with a friendly captain in a corner of the boat. He took photos with my own phone. It was a bit embarrassing, but it became a wonderful memory. We enjoyed a bottle of champagne together. Since it was Friday, we also got to see fireworks, which was great. Additionally, we had our photo taken at our seats, and we received it as a gift at the end. We will definitely use this service again.

The horses are very cute, but...

They just walk in a straight line quietly for a long time (there are explanations from the staff and opportunities to talk with them, but you can't converse with your companions), so I got bored after about the first 30 minutes...

I wish we could walk side by side with our companions and chat instead of in a line.

Thinking about it, it might not be worth the price.

I wonder if it's something I really need to do in Hawaii...

Next time I experience this, I would prefer a private course.

馬はとってもかわいいのですが・・・

ずーっとひたすら一列で黙々と歩くので
（スタッフの方の説明があったり、スタッフの方と話すことはありますが、
同行者と話すことはできません）、
最初の３０分くらいで飽きてしまいました・・・。

一列ではなく、同行者と並んで、おしゃべりしながら歩けたらいいなと思います。

そう考えるとお値段に釣り合わないかもです。

わざわざハワイに行ってやらなくてもいいかなと・・・。

今度体験するなら、プライベートコースにしたいと思います。

It was a good experience with my kids and families . We enjoy the performance and dances . The food is great we enjoy it too.

The sunset, night view, and Friday fireworks were all very beautiful. The food was delicious, but I felt it was a bit lacking in quantity. The five-star seats were quite cold, so a jacket is a must. It was so cold that I often went outside to warm up. (laugh)

サンセット、夜景、金曜日の花火どれもとても綺麗でした。料理は美味しかったのですが少し量が足りなくて物足りない感じです。5スターの席はかなり寒いので上着は必須です。寒すぎて船外にちょくちょく暖をとりに行ってました。笑

This cruise was not very good. The food was cold and the meat was mostly fat and if I could guess, it was about a 2 ounce cut of fat. The show was 2 people, doing a song. Not what I would think a show of the culture would be.

We received amazing service my wife and I! We celebrated our 1 month anniversary being married and Armando took outstanding care of us and we had such an amazing time. At the very end of the night we were pleasantly surprised with the song we played for our first dance on our wedding day, we were invited to dance up front and the servers were so enthusiastic and fun the entire time. 11/10 would recommend to a friend and we will be returning next special occasion!!

We left our hotel in Waikiki early and arrived in about 50 minutes. The place we got off at was locked, and upon closer inspection, it seemed a bit different, so we walked a bit further and found a sign that said "Check-In," where we waited. However, even when the meeting time came, they didn't arrive for quite a while and showed up 10 minutes later. The explanation was only in English, and I could only understand a little through gestures. At first, I was scared, but once I got used to it, I was able to enjoy horseback riding while feeling the North Shore breeze.

I was fine, but a foreign participant with us seemed to have some issues. My husband said his butt hurt. It was a valuable experience.

早めにワイキキのホテルを出発したところ50分くらいで着きました。降りたところが鍵がかかっており、よーく見てみるとちょっと違ってたので、先の方に行ってみるとチェックインと書いてあったので、そこで待っていました。しかし集合時間になってもなかなか来ず10分後にきました。説明は英語のみで身振り手振りで何となくしかわからない状態で出発。最初は怖かったですが慣れるとノースショアの風を感じながら、気持ちよく乗馬出来ました。
私は何ともなかったのですが、一緒に参加した外国の方はまたズレ？してました。主人は、お尻が痛いと言ってました。貴重な経験が出来ました。

The Star of Honolulu was awesome… what a great time me and my wife had… nice big ship lots of room… and what a show at the end… they do a great job getting us all in position out on the water for the sunset. I would highly recommend this option for a dinner sunset cruise… plenty of helpful staff and dinner service was superb…!!!!

The entire boat crew made this an experience to remover for ever. If you are in the area, I would highly recommend booking an evening tour with them, job well done!

We were the only Japanese people there.
We rode horses in the spacious ranch.
We took a leisurely walk while explaining the grass, flowers, birds, and small animals in simple English.
The horse was calm and smart, so I only needed to control it with the reins when it stopped to eat grass; otherwise, it walked nicely.
We climbed a small hill and took commemorative photos at a scenic spot.
I had a very enjoyable time.

日本人は私達だけでした。
ゆったりと広い牧場内を乗馬。
簡単な英語で草花や鳥や小動物の説明をしながらの散策。
馬が大人しく頭がいいので、途中草を食べるのに止まるのを、手綱で制御するぐらいで、後はちゃんと歩いてくれます。
小高い丘を登り、景色の良い所で記念撮影。
とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。

Review
The cruise was very nice. Sunset was perfect. Prime rib was OK. I was expecting more. The chicken was great! Fish, was ok too. I would do the cruise again. I would upgrade to see if the food was better. Buffet was ok for an.overall rating!

The atmosphere was amazing! Looked very high end and it felt like it. Staff was very friendly and had great service. Super romantic dinner cruise that I highly recommend to any couple looking for a unique Hawai’i experience. Food was really good, not the biggest portions, but still we left satisfied. I will say whatever the dessert was, wasn’t very good. The only negative. It was this fruit flavored cake but it tasted like dish soap. Other than that this is a must!! Beautiful scenery and nice cool breeze with excellent food and live entertainment! We did pay for the middle tier I believe so it was the four course meal with two drink tickets. I think anyone would love this.

I had always wanted to try horseback riding, but since the youngest was 7 and the oldest was 69, it was hard to find a place where everyone could ride together. Just when I was about to give up, I found this place!

I signed up for a one-hour course that started at 8:45 AM. We left Waikiki just after 7 AM, stopped at Leonard's to buy and eat malasadas on the way, and arrived at the location just in time for the meeting. We parked in the spacious parking lot and received instructions from the staff at the reception, then signed the waiver.

Wearing helmets was optional for adults, but of course, everyone wore one! We only put our phones and car keys in the provided leather bags. After using the restroom and playing with the goats and sheep in the area, it was suddenly time to start.

Each person was helped onto a horse, and we received a brief explanation on how to ride: pull the reins to stop, turn the reins in the direction you want to go, and give a light kick to the belly if the horse stops moving. Even the 7-year-old was able to ride alone and we set off right away! At first, I was nervous, but the horses were all calm and smart, which made me feel at ease.

There were hills to climb and we weaved through a herd of cows, making it feel like an attraction, which was enjoyable. We could take pictures anytime, but since we had to hold the reins, it was a bit tricky to operate the phone with one hand while turning around to take a shot. It might be difficult for those who aren't used to handling their phone with one hand. The ranch staff took quite a few pictures for us, but they were $8 each, so we decided not to purchase any.

Since we had a child with us, we moved at a relatively slow pace, but I would have liked to ride faster if it were just adults. Also, the 7-year-old was placed at the back, so everyone had to be mindful of the pace, and it would have been best if the adults were at the back instead.

We chose the one-hour course, but it actually lasted over an hour, which was more than enough. By the end, my hips and thighs were shaking! All the staff were women, and the restrooms and animal areas were kept relatively clean, which was quite impressive (though there was a lot of dust). The kids said that horseback riding was the most fun part! I highly recommend it!

ずっとやりたかった乗馬でしたが、下は7歳、上は69歳だったのでなかなか全員で乗馬できるところがなく、諦めかけていたところこちらを見つけました❗️

午前8時45分集合の1時間コースを申し込み。
ワイキキを7時過ぎに出発し、途中レナーズでマラサダを購入し食べならがレンタカーにて現地へ。集合時間ギリギリに到着
広々とした駐車場に適当に駐車して、受付でお姉さんからの説明を受け、免責の書類にサイン。
成人はヘルメット着用が自由でしたが、もちろん全員着用❗️笑
荷物は備え付けの皮の袋へ携帯と車の鍵だけ入れて。
トイレを済ませたり、園内にあるヤギや羊たちと戯れているとあっという間に開始時間に。

1人ずつ馬に乗せていただき、手綱を手前へ引いたらストップ、手綱を曲がりたい方向へ向けたら曲がる、動かなくなったら足で軽くお腹を蹴るなど、軽く乗り方の説明を受けただけて、7歳の子供も1人で乗って早速出発❗️
最初は緊張しましたが、大人しく頭のいい馬ばかりだったので、乗っているこちらも安心できました。
坂道があったり牛の群れの間をすり抜けたり、アトラクション的な感じもあって楽しめます。
写真もいつでも自分たちで撮れます。
が、手綱は持ったままになりますので、片手で携帯を操作し、さらに後ろに振り向いてシャッターを押さないといけませんので、片手で携帯の操作をし慣れてる人じゃないと難しいかなと。
牧場の方もかなり撮ってくれますが、1枚8ドルだったので、購入はせず…
また、子供がいたのでかなりゆっくりのスピードで進んでくれましたが、大人ばかりならもっと早いスピードでも乗ってみたかったかな〜。
それと、7歳の子供が一番後ろに配置されたので、みんなが後ろを気をしながら進まないといけなく、できたら大人を最後にしてもらえたらベストではありました。

今回1時間のコースにしましたが、実質1時間以上あり十分でした。
最後になると股関節も太もももワナワナしてきて笑
スタッフは全員女性で、トイレや動物のいる所も比較的綺麗に保たれており、かなり好感持てました。(砂埃は凄かったですが)
子供達も、乗馬が一番楽しかったと言っていました‼️
めちゃくちゃオススメです‼️

I thought everything, from the meals to the crew's service, was perfect!

If you ride on Friday, you can also see fireworks, which is a great deal!

It is a bit pricey, but it's worth experiencing!

食事も船員さんの対応も全てにおいてパーフェクトかなと思いました！

金曜日に乗ると花火も見れてお得です！

値段はしますけど、乗ってみる価値はありますよ！

The crew makes sure things run smooth, and the boat is a nice smooth sail as well!

This was a great experience. The performers and all staff were professional and made sure we had a good time. Food portions were perfect so that we weren't super stuffed but full enough. Beautiful food presentation. Hats off to the culinary team and chef!!!! This was a memorable experience and the interactive dance for everyone at the end was a perfect way to end the dinner cruise. Only one recommendation would be to have air conditioning in the boat. Other than that, the night was amazing!!

Overall outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome view!!!!!!!!!!!!!
