It felt like a pool in Hawaii, but since I was with my 7-year-old child, I decided to sign up. It turned out to be more fun than I expected. Outside food and drinks were not allowed, so it got very crowded at the ordering area during lunchtime. This can reduce your playtime, so I think it's better to finish lunch early. I didn't have enough time to conquer all the slides, so I want to go again! ♪
ハワイでプール?って感じですが、7歳の子供連れだったので申し込みました。
予想以上に楽しい所でした。
水以外の飲食物は持ち込み不可だったので、お昼時になると注文する所がとても混んでいました。
こうなると遊ぶ時間が減ってしまいますので、早めに昼食を済ませた方が良いと思います。
時間が足りなくて全てのスライダーを制覇することができなかったので、また行きたいです♪

We went as a family. The day before, our youngest had a fever of 40 degrees, and we were half resigned to not going, but thanks to seeing a doctor, the fever went down to normal, and we were able to go after all. However, I was surprised by how effective the medicine in America was. Now, getting to the main point, it goes without saying that this is the best view on Oahu. Even my grandfather, who is over 70, ended up doing the boogie board because of the incredible sense of freedom at this private beach. During the day, we took loco moco to the beach and ate together. By the way, there are several options to choose from, but the hamburger set seemed to be the best. Also, for couples, this is probably the perfect place to hide in the shade and talk about love. I also came here on my honeymoon, and I promised myself that when our family grows, I will definitely bring them here. This time, I brought my four children to Kailua.
家族全員で行きました。前日、末っ子が熱を40度も出してしまい、半分諦めていましたが、医者に掛かったお蔭で平熱まで下がり、何とか行く事が出来ました。しかしアメリカの薬の利き方には驚きました。さて本題ですが、言うまでも無くココはオアフ1番の景観です。70過ぎの家のジーちゃんまでもが、ブギボーを気付いたらやっていた位の開放感最高のプライベートビーチです。昼は、ロコモコをビーチに持っていって、みんなで食べました。ちなみに、何種類か選べますが、ハンバーガーセットが1番良いようでした。ちなみに、カップルの方は、木陰に隠れて、愛を語るには最高の場所ではないでしょうか~自分も、新婚旅行の時にも来まして、今度家族が増えたら絶対連れてくるぞと心に決めた場所でした。そして今回4人の子供をつれてのカイルアでした。

The event I was most looking forward to this time was wonderful. The weather was great, and within 20-30 minutes of boarding, we encountered a mother and baby whale. I thought we might not be able to see them clearly due to regulations that prevent us from staying in one spot for more than 30 minutes and from getting within 100 meters of the whales. However, we were fortunate enough to witness the baby whale unexpectedly approaching the boat, allowing us to see them up close. After parting from this mother and baby, we encountered whales a few more times, but we quickly lost sight of them and couldn't observe them for as long as we did at first. I now think that meeting this mother and baby was a very lucky experience. I was worried about seasickness, but I was able to enjoy the cruise without any major turbulence. Additionally, they provide medication for those who are concerned. It became a very nice memory.
今回一番楽しみにしていたイベント、お天気も良く乗船20-30分で早くもクジラの親子に出会えました。法律によりクジラの居場所がわかっても30分以上一箇所に居続けられないこと、クジラから半径100m以内に近づけないこと等あって、そんなにはっきり見れないのかなと思っていましたが、子クジラが思わず船に近寄ってくる場面に遭遇し間近で観ることができました。この親子と別れてからも何度かクジラには遭遇しましたが、すぐに見失ってしまい最初ほど長い間観察できませんでした。親子との出会いはとても幸運なことだったのかもと今は思っています。船酔いを心配してましたが特に大揺れすることなくクルージングを楽しめました。また、心配な方には薬も配布してくださいます。とてもいい思い出になりました。

You won't find a pool like this in Japan! The slides and half-pipes that drop from the height of a seven-story building are thrilling and so much fun! However, it can hurt your back from sliding, so I think wearing a rash guard would be a good idea. It was an incredibly fun place where I screamed a lot. Although I didn't have much time to stay, it wasn't crowded, so I was able to experience all the attractions, which I highly recommend.
こんなプールは日本にはありません!
7階建てのビルの高さから落ちるスライダーやハーフパイプは
スリル満点でとても楽しいです!ただ、背中が滑って痛くなるので

I participated with my mother on February 20. We opted out of the shuttle service, but it was about $10 by taxi from Waikiki. I was worried about whether we would be able to see anything, but we were able to see mother and baby whales. We didn't see the big jumps like you often see in photos, but we were able to see the cute little whale swimming behind its mother. It was completely unpredictable where we would see them from, but luckily we were able to see them from the side where we were having our meal. There were also lei-making, ukulele, and hula lessons included, and the staff were all very bright and friendly, which made it a lot of fun. We had a wonderful time and were very satisfied!!
2月20日に母とふたりで参加しました。
送迎なしにしましたが、タクシーでワイキキから10ドルぐらいでした。
見れるかどうか不安でしたが、私たちは親子クジラを見ることが出来ました。
よく写真で見る様な大ジャンプは見れませんでしたが、お母さんの後ろで泳ぐちびっこクジラのかわいい姿を見ることができました。
360度どこで見れるか全く予測不可能ですが、運よく私たちが食事をしていた側で見ることが出来ました。
レイメイキングやウクレレ、フラレッスンも付いていて、スタッフの方たちもとてもみんな明るくフレンドリーで楽しかったです。
楽しいひと時を過ごすことが出来て、大満足です!!

We participated as a family of four. The bus arrived on time, and the staff was friendly. We arrived a bit too early and waited for about 20 minutes in front of the gate. It's better to arrive early than to be late. The weather was nice, but the temperature was low, and it was a bit chilly. The kids wrapped themselves in towels after getting out of the pool and sat in the sun. This time of year might be a bit tough? My 8-year-old daughter couldn't get in the pool because she felt cold after a while. As for the adults, we had a great time and tried all the thrill rides. The Shaka was thrilling and fun; we tried it multiple times. Most of the rides are thrill rides, so it might be irresistible for those who love them! There are also slides and pools for kids, so they can enjoy themselves too. My 10-year-old daughter tried all the thrill rides with me. I want to go again during a hotter season next time!
家族4人で参加しました。
バスは時間通り迎えに来てくれスタッフは親切でした。
早く着きすぎて門の前で20分程待ちました。
遅れるより早く着くぐらいがいいですね。
天気は良いのですが気温が低くちょっと寒かったです。
子供はプールから上がるとタオルを体に巻いて日向にいました。
この時期はちょっと辛いかも?
8歳の娘は途中から寒くてプールに入る事ができませんでした。
大人は・・と言うと満喫しました。絶叫系のものは全部しました。

I went to Hawaii for my wedding and attended with both families. It was my first time in Hawaii, and just seeing it from the ocean was quite something. The sea is beautiful too! However, it was disappointing that I didn't see any whales at all... They had various events on the boat, like ukulele lessons, hula dancing, and lei-making classes, so it kept us entertained even if we couldn't see the whales! The food was also pretty good.
But personally, I struggled with seasickness... (laughs) I didn't realize I was so weak on boats...
自分の結婚式でハワイに行き、両家親族で参加しました。ハワイは初めてでしたので
海から見るハワイ、というだけでもなかなかのもでした。
海もキレイですしねー
ただ本命の?鯨がまったく見えなかったのは残念。。。

I thought I would be able to enjoy whale watching elegantly on a luxury cruise, but I found it to be not particularly luxurious. The food was something that would suit Japanese tastes, but it was just "ordinary." As for the main attraction, the whales, I could only see a little bit of their backs far away, and I didn't get to see them splashing their tails like in the pictures. There were onboard activities like lei-making, hula classes, and ukulele classes, but since they all happened at the same time, I could only participate in one. Overall, it was disappointing. (I may have had overly high expectations...)
豪華客船で優雅にホエールウォッチングができると思い、申し込んだところ、特に豪華ではなかったかなぁと思います。食事は、日本人の口に合うものの、「普通」でした。メインのくじらは、背中が遠くの方でちょこっと見えたりするだけで、写真のように、尾ひれがザパーンとしているものは見えません。船内アクティビティは、レイ作り、フラ教室、ウクレレ教室とあるものの、3つ同時で行われるため、1つしかできません。総合的に、期待はずれでした。(期待しすぎた部分もありましたが・・・)

I went on January 13th. On the day I arrived in Hawaii, I signed up for this activity as a way to combat jet lag. I ended up rushing from the bus stop and arrived just in time!
Once on board, I was shown to my seat, and as I settled in, we set sail. The explanations were provided in both English and Japanese, which made it easy to understand. Even if I felt a bit tired and dazed sitting in my seat, they announced when whales were spotted, so I was able to see them. At first, they were quite far away, and we only saw spouts, which made me think it would be disappointing. However, the second sighting was a mother and calf, and we even got to see their tails. When you see that, you really feel like you've seen whales!
The meal was buffet style, but it seems you need to get your food at the beginning, as there are no additional servings later. The taste was okay, but I was able to enjoy some Hawaiian dishes as well.
On the way back, there were activities like lei making, hula, and ukulele lessons. I participated in hula and lei making, and I was surprised by how few participants there were.
There are various companies offering this plan, and I was initially concerned that this ALAN company, being cheaper, might have some drawbacks. However, that was not the case at all, which made me feel like I got a great deal!
1月13日に行ってきました。
ハワイ到着日に、時差ぼけ対策も兼ねたアクティビティーをと、こちらを申し込みました。集合時間ぎりぎりになってしまい、バス停から走りました!!
というのはさておき、乗船すると、席を案内され、そこを拠点に、船内観覧をしているうちに、出航。きちんと英語と日本語で説明してくれるので、よく分かりますし、ちょっと疲れてボーっとイスに座っていても、鯨が見えると、放送で教えてくれるので、見ることができます。始めはかなり遠くて、しかも潮吹きのみだったので、これでおしまいだと寂しいなぁと思っていたら、2頭目は親子で、しかも、テールも見れました。これが見れると鯨見た!って感じしますね。
食事は、バイキングスタイルですが、始めにとっておかないと、あとでの追加はないようです。まぁまぁなお味ですが、ハワイ料理もとれました。
帰路は、レイ作り、フラ、ウクレレレッスンのアクティビティーがあり、私は、フラとレイに参加しましたが、意外と参加者が少ないので驚きました。
様々な会社でこのプランありますし、その中で、このALANさんは格安だから、なにか差があったら??と思っていましたが、まったくそんなことなく、ということは、とってもお得な気分に浸れました。

The children's pool and the wave pool were particularly good. (Feedback from a lower elementary school boy)
The slide was fun to go down. (Feedback from a kindergarten child)
There were thrilling attractions not found in Japan, such as a ride where you slide down from a high place on a boat, making for a packed and enjoyable experience. On the slide where you go down by yourself, you end up diving into the water at the end, but it's reassuring because they help you right away.
子供用プールと波のプールが特に良かったです。(小学低学年男子の感想)
滑り台が滑れてとても楽しかったです。(幼稚園児の感想)
日本には無いスリルのあるアトラクション(ボートに乗り高い所から滑り下りるもの)等があり、盛りだくさんの内容で楽しかった。自分で滑る滑り台では、最後に水中に潜り込む様になりますが、すぐに助けてくれるので安心でした。

This was my third visit, and it's always fun no matter how many times I go. However, this time we had heavy rain and thunder, but thanks to the spa, it wasn't cold, which was great. (Note: Those under 21 are not allowed to enter, but some staff may allow it.) The kids played until the last minute. Not having a meal and having free drinks means there are no time constraints, and the Mahimahi burger might actually be cheaper and tastier...
今回は3回目でしたが、何回行っても面白いですね。ただ、今回は、大雨に加えて雷でしたがSPAのお陰で寒くもなく良かったです。(注・21歳以下は入湯不可になってますが、監視員によってはOKです。)

I was moved by the sight of the boat racing through the sea breeze, filled with anticipation, but unfortunately, we were unable to see any whales. Shortly after setting sail, we were fortunate enough to encounter a pod of dolphins. We received a re-boarding ticket, but our schedule was full, so we couldn't go again. It might have been a bit too early for this time of year. By now, it should definitely be possible to see whales. In our case, it was mid-December. The photo of the dolphins became our only memento.
海風を受けて走るさまに感動しながら期待に胸を弾ませて居りましたが残念ながら鯨に逢う事が出来ませんでした出航して程なく海豚の群れに出会えたのは幸いだったとおもいます。再乗船券を頂けたのですが予定が一杯でいくことが出来ませんでした。此時期まだ少し早かったのかもしれません。今頃はきっと鯨を見ることが可能でしょう。私達の場合12月中旬でした。海豚の写真が唯一の記念になりました。

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first overseas trip with just my elementary school child. It was a great decision to participate the day after we arrived in Hawaii. It provided the perfect reason to help my child adjust to the time difference by going to bed early and waking up early.
There is a prohibition on bringing food and drinks, and there is a baggage check at the entrance similar to Tokyo Disneyland. Only water is allowed, so I filled a water bottle with ice water and brought a separate pack of barley tea for the check. They didn't check the contents of the water bottle, so I recommend this method for children who can't have carbonated drinks.
Small lockers are available for $5 a day and are conveniently located almost in the center of the park, making it easy to access money for cameras and fast food multiple times.
I can guarantee that this will be an activity that your child will absolutely enjoy!
ハワイは何度も行っていますが、小学生の子供と2人だけの海外旅行は初めてです。
ハワイに到着の翌日に参加したのは大正解でした。時差ぼけ解消に早寝早起きを子供にさせるのに、絶好の理由になりました。
飲食物の持込禁止で、入口で東京ディズニーランドのような手荷物検査があります。水だけはOKなので、水筒に氷入りの水を入れ、麦茶のパックを別に持ってチェックを受けましたが、水筒の中身を見られる事はなく、炭酸系の飲み物がだめな子供にはこの方法をお勧めします。
小ロッカーは1日$5で、園内のほぼ中央に位置おり、カメラや昼食にファーストフードを買うお金を何回も出し入するのに便利でした。
子供に絶対楽しかったと言わせるアクティビティである事をお約束します。

Hawaii is all about the ocean! However, I thought that might not be enough for elementary school children, so I was looking for some good activities on Alan-chan and found this place. I imagined a similar pool facility that exists in Japan, and while I was worried that it would be crowded because of summer vacation, I signed up for a total of five people: two adults and three children under elementary school age. We were picked up from the hotel and headed to the location, but I was surprised when we arrived! Each attraction was not crowded at all, and we were able to enjoy all the attractions very smoothly. The facility had areas for adults only, as well as shallow pool areas where small children could safely play, making it a place where both adults and children could be satisfied.
ハワイは海!とは言え、それだけでは小学生の子供達にはもの足りないだろうと思い、何か良いアクテビティはないものかとアランちゃんで探していたところ、ここを見つけました。日本にもある同様のプール施設を想像していた私は、「夏休みだから混んでいるんだろうな」と不安に思いつつも大人2人・小学生以下の子供3人の計5人で申し込み、参加しました。ホテルからの送迎つきで現地に向かいましたが、着いてみてびっくり!各アトラクションは混んでいることもなく、非常にスムーズに全てのアトラクションを楽しむことができました。場内には大人だけで過ごせるエリア、小さい子供も安心して入れる浅いプールのエリアと、いろいろな配慮がなされ、大人も子供も満足できる施設でした。

We decided to go because two children can enter for free, and there’s no doubt that this is an activity on a scale not found in Japan. It’s very interesting.
Especially the elementary school kids were playing non-stop without even eating. The shuttle picked us up right at the hotel entrance, and it was as simple as handing over the voucher; we could just sleep until we arrived. It took about 40 minutes to get there, and we took a commemorative photo. If you like it, you can buy something on the way back, but it's up to you. The locker fee of five dollars is an additional charge, but once you pay it, you can open and close it as many times as you want, so I think it’s worth it.
On weekdays, there’s no need to wait in line inside, and the time until we headed back flew by. At first, I thought it was just a pool in Hawaii, but I heard after returning that it became the kids' best memory of the trip.
2人の子供が無料になるという理由で行ってみましたが、日本には無いスケールのアクティビティであることは間違いありません。非常に面白いです。
特に小学生の子供たちは食事をせずに遊びまくっていました。送迎はホテル玄関まで迎えに来てくれ、バウチャーを渡すだけと簡単、到着するまでの間は寝ていればよし。40分ほどで到着して記念写真をパチリ。気に入れば帰りに買うことができますが自由です。ロッカー5ドルは別払いですが、一度払えば何度でも開け閉めできますので、利用価値は高いと思います。
平日は場内で並ぶようなことも無く、帰りまでの時間はあっという間です。
最初はハワイでプールかよと思いましたが、子供の一番の思い出になったアクティビティだったと帰国してから聞かされました。

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii, but it was my first time at Hawaiian Waters Park. I participated with my family of three. I initially joined for my 9-year-old son, but I ended up enjoying it as well. I referred to the reviews on the Voice Center, so it was a good decision to choose the package without meals. We visited on Sunday, November 12, and there were few people, so we hardly had to wait in line, allowing my son and me to run around the park together. There was a boogie board lesson, and while the lesson fee was included in the package without meals, the rental fee was not, which required an additional $10. There were only a few boards left, and I had to rush back to get the $10, but I managed to make it in time.
We gathered at 2:45 PM and played for about four full hours, but it did feel a bit short. We arrived in Waikiki around 4 PM, so we could take a break at the hotel and then go shopping, which my wife said was the best timing. It might be better to leave you wanting a little more.
Also, I took advantage of the free child campaign, which was a great help cost-wise. I'm planning to go to Hawaii again next year, so I definitely want to participate again. Thank you, Alan!
ハワイは今回で6回目くらいですが、ハワイアンウォーターズパークは初めてでした。家族3人で参加しました。9才の息子のためと思って参加したのですが、私もはまってしまいました。ボイスセンターの書き込みを参考にしていたので、食事なしのコースにして正解でした。11月12日の日曜日の参加でしたが人が少なくほとんど並ぶことなく、息子と2人で園内を走りまわっていました。ブギーボードのレッスンがあったのですが、食事なしコースはレッスン代は含まれているのですがレンタル代が含まれてなく、10ドル必要でボードの枚数も残り少なく、10ドルを取に戻ったりとばたばたでした。何とか間に合いましたが。
2時45分集合と言う事で約4時間フルに遊びまわりましたが、確かに短いような気がしました。ワイキキの到着が4時頃なのでホテルで一休みして、またショッピングなど行けるので妻はこの位の時間がベストじゃないのといってました。少し物足りない位の方が良いのかも。
それと子供無料キャンペーンを利用したので、コスト的にも非常に助かりました。来年もハワイに行くので、また是非参加したいと思います。アランさん有難う御座いました。

This time, I participated with my wife and our two daughters, making it a family of four. On the bus ride there, our guide KAZU's entertaining talk made the kids happy, and above all, the unlimited access to attractions without the crowds was fantastic. Since the playtime is short (about 4 hours in reality), I think it's better to enjoy the attractions without meals. The free admission for children is truly appreciated... I would love to go again if the opportunity arises.
今回は妻と娘2人のファミリー4人で参加しました。行きのバスではガイドKAZUさんの楽しいトークで子供も喜んでいましたし、何より混雑無く乗り放題のアトラクションが最高でした。遊べる時間が短いので(実質4時間程度)食事なしで遊びまくったほうが良いと思います。やっぱり子供無料サービスが大変ありがたいです。。。また機会があれば行きたいと思います。

We decided to come here as a family for our first trip to Hawaii. Both adults and children had a great time. Perhaps it was the warm climate, the air, and the sense of openness in Hawaii, but the theme park allowed adults to return to their childhood, even if a little shyly. Each attraction was dynamic, and the scale was vastly different from Japanese theme parks. Moreover, attractions like Cliffhanger and Shaka, which are thrilling, were harmoniously combined with more relaxing attractions like Kapolei Cooler, making it a very enjoyable and pleasant theme park. The kids were so impressed that they equated Hawaii with this park. Honestly, I was blown away by Shaka (the half-pipe slide). For roller coaster enthusiasts, this place is irresistible. I will definitely return on my next trip to Hawaii, of course with Alan.
初めてのハワイを家族でどこにいこうかと考えて、ここに決めました。
大人も子供もとても楽しむことができました。
ハワイという暖かい気候と空気そして開放感からか、大人も恥ずかしながら童心にかえる事ができたテーマパークでした。
一つ一つのアトラクションが、ダイナミックで、日本のテーマパークのスケールとは大違いでした。
それでいて、クリフ*ハンガー、シャカ、のような動のアトラクションと、カポレイ*クーラーのような静のアトラクションが調和されていて、とても楽しい、心地よいテーマパークでした。
子供たちは、ハワイ、イコールこのパークと思い込むぐらいインパクトの強いパークでした。
いやいや、シャカ(ハーフパイプ状のスライダー)には、ちびりました。ほんと。
ここはジェットコースター好きの方は、たまらないでしょう。
今度のハワイでもリピートします。もちろんアランちゃんで。

Kaz, the shuttle driver, was amazing! I was imagining Wild Blue in Yokohama, but maybe it was the time of year, as it was empty and we could ride as much as we wanted! My 18-year-old daughter and I forgot our ages and had a blast (laughs). Just don't expect much from the shower and food. You could say it's natural (laughs).
送迎のカズさん最高!横浜にあったワイルドブルーを想像してたのですが行った時期なのか、ガラガラで何度も何度も乗り放題!18歳の娘と歳を忘れて大はしゃぎ(笑)ただシャワーと食べ物は期待しないで。良く言えば自然(笑)

We were really looking forward to it as a family, but on the day, it was unfortunately pouring rain! Although we changed into our swimsuits, the rain and cold made it feel like swimming was out of the question. However, the kids boldly jumped in without a care. The facility was so appealing that I couldn't help but wish for better weather...
The pool itself was well-equipped, and there were plenty of lifeguards, which made it feel safe and enjoyable. Unfortunately, the changing rooms and shower areas were not very hygienic and were difficult to use. Overall, the attractions were decent, so I would like to visit again on a sunny day.
親子でとても楽しみにしてたのに、当日は無常にもあいにくの土砂降り!!
水着には着替えたものの、雨と寒さでとてもプールどころではない感じだったのですが、子供たちはそれでもお構い無しに果敢に飛び込んでいました。
それほど魅力的な施設だっただけに、天候さえ良ければ・・・と恨めしく思うばかりでした。
プールそのものは充実しており、監視員の方も大勢いて安心かつ楽しめそうだったのですが、残念なことは更衣室やシャワールーム等があまり衛生的ではなく、使いにくかった点です。
ただ内容的にはまずまずのアトラクションですので、今度は天気の良い日にもう一度訪れてみたいなと思います。

I participated on October 27. I arrived in Oahu on the 23rd and spent most of my time shopping, so I felt a bit guilty towards my child. However, I think bringing them to this facility helped make up for it. My child is still small, so they couldn't experience thrilling slides, but they were more than satisfied just playing on the slides and equipment in the children's zone. Even though it's a children's zone, the slides and other attractions are enjoyable for adults as well, so parents could have fun without getting bored. The downside is the short duration of stay, but there's not much that can be done unless the facility's hours are extended. Paying the regular adult and child fees might feel a bit pricey, but taking advantage of Alan's free child admission system makes it feel like a good deal, and overall, I think it's satisfying. Also, the locker keys are self-managed, allowing you to open and close them freely throughout the day (locker usage fee is charged), so you can bring cameras, videos, or cash without worrying about theft while playing. Considering the duration of stay, it would be better to grab a meal at the food stand inside the facility.
10月27日に参加しました。 23日にオアフ島に到着し買い物ばかりにつき合わせていたので、子供には悪いな~と思っていましたが、こちらの施設に連れてきて罪滅ぼしになったかなと思いました。 私の子供はまだ小さいのでスリリングなスライダー等は体験できませんでしたが、子供ゾーンの滑り台や遊具での遊びだけでも十分に満足していました。 子供ゾーンといえども、滑り台等は大人でも楽しめる物なので、親も飽きる事無く楽しめました。 マイナス点は、滞在時間が短い事ですが、施設の営業時間が延長されない限り仕方が無いでしょうね。 大人料金と子供料金を正規で支払っては割高感があるでしょうがALANさんの子供料金タダのシステムを利用させて頂けばお得感も有り、トータル的に満足出来ると思います。 あと、ロッカーの鍵は自己管理で終日開け閉めは自由に出来ます(ロッカー使用料は有料)ので、カメラやビデオ又は現金等を持っていっても、盗難等気にせずに遊べますよ。 食事は滞在時間の事を考えると施設内のフード売店で済ませたほうが良いでしょうね。
