All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

First of all, the closing time is too early at 3 PM. On the day of my visit, the lazy river and some slides were closed. The price was too high for just the wave pool. It also took about 30 minutes to get our food after ordering, even though it wasn't crowded at all. I reserved a cabana, but it wasn't necessary due to the short operating hours.

まず閉園時間が15時と早すぎる
当日、流れるプールと一部のスライダーが中止という。
波のプールだけでは高すぎる金額でした
食事もオーダーしてから30分程かかりました。
全然混んでいないのに。
カバナ予約しましたが営業時間が短いので必要ありませんでした。

Crew was great, food was good, would recommend to all

We continued from last year. This time, we checked the tide conditions and made a reservation, so the water was very shallow and the weather was nice, making it really beautiful. There were many children, so I couldn't be pulled along for snorkeling like last year, but we were able to see a lot of fish, and afterwards, we had a great time playing at SAP. I think I will participate again next year.

昨年に引き続き行ってまいりました。今回も潮の状態を確認し予約したため、水深がとても浅く、天候もよかったためすごくきれいでした。子どもが多く昨年のように手を引っ張ってもらってシュノーケリングというわけにはいきませんでしたが、魚が多く見れ、またその後もＳＡＰで楽しく遊べ良かったです。また、来年も参加すると思います。

I loved the movie filmed here and made a reservation. The scale was grand, and I was able to experience something extraordinary!

However, while other guides were taking pictures with dinosaur plush toys in the drop-off area, our guide stayed in the car. I think it would be a better tour if you could ensure a more equal quality of guides.

こちらで撮影された映画が大好きで予約をしました。
スケールが壮大で非日常を味わうことができました！

ただ、降車エリアで他のガイドさんは恐竜のぬいぐるみを持って撮影してくれていたのに、私たちのガイドは車に乗ったままでした。
ガイドの質平等を頼んでいただけたらもっといいツアーになると思います。

We went to the Polynesian show at WDW years ago and this one blew it out of the water. Fantastic family atmosphere.

I joined a tour because I wanted to see wild dolphins. Right after we set sail, we encountered a pod of spinner dolphins, and they swam alongside the boat for a long time, jumping several times. The natural dolphin show was absolutely amazing. The staff was very friendly and taught us a lot about Hawaii. It was quite cold when we returned after snorkeling, so I really appreciated the warm drink they provided. I was hoping there would be a hot water shower, but unfortunately, there wasn't.

野生のイルカを見たくてツアーに参加しました。出航してからすぐにマダライルカの群れに会うことができ、長時間船と一緒に泳いでくれたり何度もジャンプもしてくれました。自然のイルカショーはとても最高でした。スタッフの方もとても親切でハワイについて色々と教えてくれました。シュノーケルを終えて帰ってくるときとても寒かったので温かいドリンクの提供ありがたかったです。
温水シャワー付きなのかと思っていたのですがなかったのが残念でした。

This was my second visit. I was guided to an outdoor seat, but when I requested to change to an indoor seat, I was taken to the second floor, which had a nice atmosphere, and we started our meal. The food was delicious. However, about 30 minutes in, a group of around eight people who completely disregarded the surrounding environment sat nearby. Their loud, almost shrill laughter and vulgar tone ruined the atmosphere. It seemed that most of them had been living in Hawaii for a long time, engaging in noisy conversations in Japanese. They had no manners, and I felt that it lowered the establishment's dignity and reputation. Since I was traveling, I chose not to say anything, and I understand that the restaurant cannot choose its customers, but it would have been nice if they had some measures in place to maintain the restaurant's standards. It was a shame to have such a wonderful dinner ruined. It was disappointing, especially since the food was so good.

２度目の往訪。屋外の席に案内されたが、室内に変更を希望すると２階席に案内され、雰囲気もよく、会食を開始。料理はおいしかったです。ところが、開始３０分後、周囲への迷惑を全く気にしない集団８名ほどが近くの席に。特に女性陣のけたたましい、奇声に近い笑い声、下品な口調で雰囲気は台無しに。ハワイに長く住んでいる方々が大半の様で、日本語でのうるさい会話。マナーも無く、お店にとっても品格が下がり、品位が疑われるのではと思われました。旅行中なので敢えて注意しませんでしたし、お店も客は選べないのでしょうが、お店の格を守るためにも注意が合っても良かったのでは。せっかくのディナーは台無しに。美味しかっただけに残念です。

I participated on September 10. Despite paying a fairly high fee, three activities were closed. By around noon, it seemed that the staff were short-handed due to their breaks, leading to even more closed activities. They did not reopen until we boarded the return bus before 3 PM. It felt almost like a scam. Perhaps it would have been different on another day, but that was the only day my family could go. If you decide to book, it seems to be a matter of luck.

現地日付9月10日に参加しました。まぁまぁ高い料金を払ったのにクローズドのアクティビティが3箇所。昼くらいになるとスタッフが休憩に入る事で人手が足りてないのか、更にクローズドのアクティビティが続出。15時前に帰りのバスに乗るまで再開されませんでした。殆ど詐欺レベルという印象です。他の日なら違ったのかもしれませんが、私達家族が行けたのは其の日だけなワケで。申し込むなら運次第でしょうね。

Cousin Gaby was hilarious and informative. The site was breathtaking.

The sandbar was not a beach but a shallow area that was about knee-deep. However, since I checked the tide data in advance, I was able to enjoy it quite a bit. Everyone had fun playing beach volleyball and practicing snorkeling.

The hamburgers for lunch were incredibly delicious. I was also amazed by the number of sea turtles we saw.

The final snorkeling experience was wonderful, with clear water and lots of tropical fish. Even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, it was enjoyable.

All the crew members were fantastic, always keeping us entertained and paying close attention to safety, for which I am very grateful.

サンドバーは砂浜ではなく膝下くらいまで浸かる浅瀬でしたが、それは事前に干潮満潮データを見て行っていたので、それはそれなりに楽しめました。みんなビーチバレーやシュノーケルの練習を行い楽しかったです。
昼食のハンバーガーもめちゃくちゃ美味しくいただきました。
ウミガメウォッチもめちゃくちゃいて驚きました。
最後のシュノーケルは水中がきれいで熱帯魚達がたくさんいました。泳ぎが苦手な私でも楽しめました。
クルーの方々全員素晴らしい方で常に楽しませていただき、安全にも十分気を配っていただき感謝です。

Since the time of participation was close to high tide, the depth was nearly 70 centimeters, but I had researched beforehand and was satisfied, so it was not a problem. On the contrary, I would like to visit again during low tide.

Even though it was high tide, we went out to sea, so the area around the sandbar was deep. I was able to take photos where the color of the sea was distinctly different.

The honu also came close to the boat! The bright staff allowed us to enjoy activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding!

参加日の時間帯は満潮に近かったため、腰　70センチ近くの深さはありましたが、事前に調べて納得した上で参加したので問題ありませんでした。逆に浅瀬の時にまた訪問してみたいと思いました。
満潮といえ、沖に出ていますので、サンドバーの周りは深い海。海の色がくっきり違う写真が撮れました。
ホヌも船の近くまで来てくれました！
明るいスタッフ、シュノーケルとsupなどのアクティビティを楽しむことができました！

At the initial gathering, I heard that we were the only two Japanese people, which made me a bit anxious. However, our tour guide Ryuichi was kind and taught us thoroughly, and we had a great time. He also explained the history of Hawaii in detail, which was very educational. It was moving to see a mother and baby dolphin. Additionally, the slide from the boat was very impressive and a rare experience. Snorkeling allowed us to see fish and beautiful scenery, which was breathtaking. Thank you very much, Ryuichi!!!

最初の集合時に日本人は私達の二人だけと聞き少し不安な気持ちになりましたが
ツアーガイドのRyuichiさんに優しく丁寧に教えて貰いとても楽しめました。
ハワイの歴史についても丁寧に教えて頂き勉強になりました。
イルカの親子を見ることができとても感動しました。また、船内からの滑り台はとても迫力があり貴重な体験でした。
シュノーケリングは魚を見れて綺麗な景色が見れ感動しました。
Ryuichiさん、今回はありがとうございました！！！

I participated with my middle school child, but all the participants were foreigners (I couldn't understand the explanations at all). Although the atmosphere was adult-oriented since alcohol was served, we were able to relax and spend a long time enjoying light snacks, which made for a wonderful memory on our last night. I'm glad I participated.

中学生の子供と参加しましたが、全員外国人の参加でした（解説も全く聞き取れませんでした）。お酒を飲めることから大人の雰囲気ではありましたが、軽食を食べながら長い時間、ゆったりと過ごすことが出来、最後の夜の素敵な思い出になりました。参加して良かったです。

I was expecting the sandbar to be on the beach, but the water level was higher than I thought. However, the water was clear. The staff were very friendly and took photos for us.

We were able to see manta rays and sea turtles, which was amazing.

The hamburger for lunch was delicious.

The snorkeling wasn't great at first because the water clarity wasn't very good, making it hard to find fish, but by the time I got used to it, I was able to see plenty of tropical fish.

After snorkeling, there were warm drinks available, and I enjoyed some cocoa.

Above all, the staff were fantastic, and I had a great time. Thank you!

サンドバーは砂浜の上に立てるのを期待していたが思っていたより水位があった。でも水は綺麗だった。スタッフの人もいろいろと声をかけてくれて写真も撮ってくれた。
マンタも海亀も見ることが出来て最高。

ランチのハンバーガーが美味しかった。

シュノーケリングは海の透明度があまり良くなく最初は魚を探すのが大変だったけれど、慣れた頃には熱帯魚をいっぱい見られました。

シュノーケリング終了後は温かい飲み物の用意が有りココアでほっこり。

なんといってもスタッフの皆様が最高でとても楽しめました。ありがとうございました。

The driver was friendly, and although it was mentioned that he couldn't speak Japanese, it seemed his wife was Japanese, so he could speak a little. It was cool in the early morning, and I was able to climb at my own pace. On the way back, he kindly provided bottled water, which tasted very good. When I arrived at the hotel, I made it in time for breakfast, so that was great. I did well at 56 years old!

ドライバーさんも気さくな方で日本語は出来ないと書いてあったけど奥様が日本人だったようで片言ですが良かったです。
早朝で涼しく、自分のペースで登る事が出来ました。帰りにはペットボトルをサービスして下さりとても美味しく感じました。
ホテルに着いたら朝食の時間に間に合い食べる事もできたので良かったです。56才よく頑張りました

This battleship was actually used until about 30 years ago. You can see photos of the actual attack sites of the Japanese kamikaze, as well as images of the water burials conducted by American soldiers, and the surrender documents of Japan from World War II. Additionally, free Japanese tours can be booked on the ship on the day of your visit.

約30年前まで実際に使われていた戦艦です。
実際の日本のカミカゼの攻撃跡や、敵であるアメリカ兵による水葬の様子の写真、第二次世界大戦での日本の降伏文書も見られます。
また、無料の日本語ツアーも当日船上で申し込み可能です。

It was my first cruise experience. I was worried about seasickness, but the duration was short, and it was not a problem at all. The sandbar was a bit shallow due to timing, but I enjoyed snorkeling and turtle watching. The staff's hospitality was great, and the BBQ hamburgers on board were especially delicious. Thank you very much.

初めてのクルーズ体験でした。船酔いを心配していましたが、時間も短く全く問題ありませんでした。サンドバーはタイミングもあるので、浅瀬という感じでしたが、シュノーケルやウミガメウオッチなど楽しめました。スタッフさんたちのもてなしも感じが良く、中でも船上BBQハンバーガーはとても美味しかったです。有難うございました。

The lobster for dinner was thick and tasted just like Japanese crab, it was truly delicious! The final jazz live performance was also moving. It was a great experience to overlook Waikiki and see the fireworks, I'm glad I participated!

ディナーのロブスターが肉厚で味が日本のカニのようで本当に美味しかったです！
最後のジャズライブにもじーんとしました。
ワイキキを一望して花火が見られたのもいい経験で、参加してよかったです！

I participated knowing that it was close to high tide, so I really enjoyed it. The sandbar is shallow enough for adults to walk. Snorkeling is a test of stamina, but it's great for those with experience. You can see a lot of sea turtles. I had fun with activities like stand-up paddleboarding, but now I have muscle soreness!

満潮近いのを承知での参加でしたので、まあ、堪能しました。サンドバーは大人がなんとか歩ける深さ。シュノーケリングは体力勝負か、経験ある人には良いです。海ガメたくさん見られます。
SUPなど楽しめましたが、筋肉痛が！

Some attractions and slides may be closed depending on the day and time, and there are height restrictions for children. A large sign provides a map of the attractions along with height restrictions, while a smaller sign shows the current open and closed status. Since some slides may close at certain times, I think it's better to go for the slides you want to try first. If you can speak English, you can check with the staff. For those like me who can't speak it, I think it's fine to just enjoy the slides you want to try 😊.

その日ごとや時間帯によってクローズになっているアトラクションやスライダーが有るのと、子供さんは身長制限が有ったりするので大きな案内板にアトラクションの地図と身長制限、小さな案内板に現在のオープンクローズの状況が確認出来ました。時間帯によってクローズになってしまう物も有ったりしましたので滑りたいスライダーが有れば先に行った方が良いと思います。英語が話せる方はスタッフに確認すれば良いと思いますか
私のように話せない方はとりあえず滑りたい物を利用したら良いと思います😊

I had wanted to order something I had seen others enjoying for a while, but I couldn't because there were no pictures on the menu. However, this time I was able to order it. It was called Chili Cheese, which is topped with chili bean sauce and cheese sauce over fries, and it was very delicious. They also provided a dipping sauce that was tangy, similar to Caesar salad dressing, and something like jalapeños. The pizza comes with two pieces, about the size of a large pizza in Japan, along with a set of fries. So if you want fries, be careful not to order extra, as you'll end up with quite a lot of fries.

以前から他の人が持ってるのを見て美味しそうだったのでオーダーしたかったけどメニューに写真が載ってなかったので頼めずにいたのですが今回オーダーする事が出来ました。チリチーズという、ポテトの上にチリビーンズソースとチーズソースがかかっててとても美味しかったです。ディップ用にシーザーサラダのドレッシングっぽい酸味のあるソースとハラペーニョみたいなのをくれました。ピザは日本のLサイズ位の2ピース分にポテトがセットで付いてきますので、ポテトを食べたい方は別でポテトをオーダーしてしまうとなかなかの量のポテトを食べる事になっちゃいます。

I was able to see both sea turtles and dolphins. I was also hoping to see tropical fish while snorkeling, but that didn't happen.

ウミガメもイルカも見ることができました。シュノーケリングで熱帯魚を見ることも期待しておりましたが、それはかないませんでした。

Two first-time participants.
The staff on board were very friendly, and we had a great time.
There were some changes from last time, and it was meaningful to participate!

初参加２名。
船中のスタッフは、とってもフレンドリーで楽しく過ごせました。
前回と少しずつ変化していてそれなりに参加することに意義あり！でした。

We visited the heavenly sea to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday. The tide was high, so we couldn't do the sandbar walk, but we enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding and snorkeling. I was also very satisfied to encounter a HONU! I will participate again!

妻の還暦記念で天国の海を訪れました。
潮位が高く、サンドバーウォークは叶いませんでしたが、サップとシュノーケリングで楽しみました。
ＨＯＮＵと出会うこともでき大満足でした！
また参加します！

We participated as a family of four, including our grandchild. Our grandchild was thrilled feeding the turtles and little birds. The birds even perched on our shoulders and heads, which was enjoyable. The dolphin show was also great. The staff was friendly.

家族孫入れて4人で参加。孫はカメや小鳥の餌やり等で大はしゃぎしてました。
小鳥は肩や頭に止まったりしたので楽しめました。イルカショーも良かったです。
スタッフはフレンドリーでした。

It was a tour where I could do everything I wanted at once: exploring sandbars, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling. The staff was friendly and accommodating in both English and Japanese, which made me feel very secure. Meals and drinks were included, and I could also experience the atmosphere of international cuisine.

サンドバー散策、うみがめ観察、シュノーケルとやりたいことが一度でできるツアーでした。スタッフも親切で英語も日本語にも対応しているのでとても安心です。食事や飲み物も含まれていて海外の食事の雰囲気も感じられます

The staff was very cheerful and kind. However, the size of the snorkeling set did not fit at all, and also, this might be unavoidable, but I was confused by how deep the tide was, more than I had imagined. If I could have received a briefing on snorkeling or the tide conditions the day before or just before departure, I might have been better prepared mentally...

スタッフの方はとっても明るくて親切にしてくださいました。
ただ、シュノーケルセットの大きさがまったく合わなかったのと、あと、これは仕方がないかもしれませんが、想像以上に潮が深くて、困惑しました。
前日直前や出発前の事前に、シュノーケルのレクチャーとか、潮の状況とか、きかせてもらえたら、心の準備ができたかも…

Tour consists of sandbar and coral reef with amazing burger lunch in-between. All gears for snorkeling were provided as well

Meeting at 5:40 AM before sunrise is indeed early, but we were still among the fourth or fifth group to enter the site. We rented a paid option for a parasol and chair set, which I highly recommend due to the strong sunlight. In the morning, there are relatively fewer people, making it enjoyable. Around 10 AM, we had an incredibly lucky surprise when a monk seal suddenly came up on the beach to rest, just about 10 meters from our base. My grandchild had been talking about wanting to see one since before coming to Hawaii, so it was great that we could make that happen by chance. There is a law requiring a distance of over 15 meters from monk seals, so it’s also a good memory that our base had to be moved quickly.

日の出前の５時４０分集合はさすがに早いが、それでも現地では４組〜５組めの入場グループでした。有料OPでパラソル・チェアセットをレンタルしましたが、日差しが強いのでぜひお勧めします。午前中はヒトも比較的少なく楽しめます。１０時頃に私たちのベース基地から１０ｍくらいの場所に突然にモンクシールが砂浜にあがってきて休憩するという超ラッキーサプライズに出会えました。一緒の孫がハワイに来る前から会いたいと話していたので、偶然にも叶えてあげられてよかったです。モンクシールには１５ｍ以上距離を取らなければいけない法律があるので、我々のベース基地は速攻移動させられたのもいい思い出です。

The sandbar is located inside the bay, so the waves were very calm. I usually get seasick, but this time I was fine. We saw turtles from the boat, and finally, we went snorkeling around the coral reef.

サンドバーが湾内なので波がとても穏やかでした。船酔いしやすい方ですが、今回は大丈夫でした。亀は船の上から見て、最後に珊瑚礁の周りをシュノーケリングしました。
