All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

The buffet offered a good variety of dishes, and the Polynesian show was entertaining and lively, adding a fun cultural touch to the cruise!

The Mauka Warriors Luau was an incredible Christmas Eve experience and a great way to celebrate in Hawaii.

The dinner had a good variety of traditional Hawaiian foods, and the staff was welcoming and organized from start to finish

Watching the sunset over Waikiki from the water was beautiful and relaxing.

The buffet dinner had a nice variety of food, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the Polynesian show was entertaining and energetic.

The buffet and the traditional hula and luau show were amazing. I went alone, so I was a bit worried at first, but everyone sitting next to me was Japanese, and we enjoyed the meal while watching the show together. It was a really great night!

ビュッフェと伝統的なフラとルアウのショーでは最高でした
一人で行ったから、最初はちょっと心配してましたが
隣に座っていた方は全員日本の方で一緒にショーを見ながら、食事を楽しんでました
凄くいい夜でした！

The atmosphere was nice and I had a great time! It was a bit disappointing that I couldn't see the performers from my seat. The food was average...

雰囲気が良く楽しめました！
演奏者が見える席ではなかったので、少し残念でした。
お料理は、普通です…

The buffet food was delicious, and after going around once, I was completely full and very satisfied, including the desserts. The hula on stage was wonderful, and the intensity of the fire dance was especially impressive. I felt that the power of the fire dance increased even more with multiple performers.

ビュッフェの料理はどれも美味しく、デザートも含め一周したらお腹いっぱいで大満足でした。
ステージのフラも素敵でとくにファイヤーダンスの迫力は凄かったです。複数人でのファイヤーダンスだとさらに迫力が増すなと感じました。

Delicious meals that make your taste buds dance.
People from various countries participate, and you can enjoy the buffet without any issues.
Both the meat and desserts were delicious!

美味しい食事に舌鼓。
色々な国の方が参加されますが、
問題なくビュッフェを堪能できます。
お肉もデザートも美味でした！

I attended the show with my family of five, including my one-year-old grandchild. Fortunately, we were able to sit in the front row and fully enjoy the powerful stage performance. Even without understanding English, the atmosphere and the performance were more than enough. The excitement was so overwhelming that my grandchild's diaper was quite a mess, and I thought that once they are a bit older, I would like to take them again.

1歳の孫を含め、家族5名で観覧しました。
幸運なことに最前列に座ることができ、大迫力のステージを堪能することが出来ました。
英語がわからなくても、その雰囲気とパフォーマンスで十分でした。
あまりの迫力で孫のおむつが大変なことになっており、もう少し大きくなったら、再度、
連れて行ってあげようと思いました。

In addition to traditional Hawaiian hula and Polynesian dance, the show beautifully blends performances by Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, creating a great balance of "culture + entertainment."

The fire dance in the latter half is particularly stunning and honestly the most exciting point of the show. The structure actively engages the audience, ensuring that everyone can enjoy it without getting bored until the very end.

Moreover, the venue is centrally located in Waikiki, making it easily accessible. The opportunity to take photos with the cast after the show adds to the overall satisfaction of the experience. It's impressive how the show is designed not just for viewing, but to create lasting memories.

ハワイ伝統のフラやポリネシアンダンスに加えて、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのパフォーマンスが融合していて、「文化＋エンタメ」のバランスがかなり良いショーだった。

特に後半のファイヤーダンスは圧巻で、正直ここが一番テンション上がるポイント。
観客をしっかり巻き込む構成になっていて、飽きずに最後まで楽しめる。

また、会場がワイキキ中心でアクセスが良く、ショー後にキャストと写真が撮れるなど、体験としての満足度も高い。
単なる鑑賞ではなく「思い出として残る設計」がされているのが印象的。

The dancers and musicians were fantastic! Food and service was great!

The wind was strong inside the boat, and it was cold even with a jacket on, but the night view, the moon, and the fireworks were very beautiful. It was worth participating, and I would like to ride again.

船内は風が強く上着着用しても寒かったけど、夜景や月や花火はとてもよく見えて、参加して，価値があった。また乗りたいです。

It was an experience that you can't easily have in Japan, where you could witness the action right in front of you and feel the breath and sharp movements up close. Moreover, it was just a five-minute walk to the hotel after the show, which was a unique aspect of being in Hawaii.

なかなか、日本では体験できない、目の前でのアクションで、息遣いやシャープな動きを目の当たりで体験できました。
なお、ショーが終わって5分で、ホテルでしたので、ハワイならではでした。

First off. This was an adult only, open bar sunset cruise. I have been on quite a few of these in the past. This cruise they didn’t even play the music up at all and there was little to no energy from the crew. And they ran out of white claws… Would not book again from this company.

The sunset itself was incredibly beautiful and had an extraordinary feel to it, but it was different from the sunset cruise I had imagined.

On the day we participated, as we headed out to sea, the waves and wind were intense (I didn't feel it when I was by the beach; the weather was clear), and the boat rocked so much that I thought it might capsize. The splashes were just overwhelming! Those at the front of the boat were getting drenched from head to toe (there was a prior announcement warning that the front would get wet), and even those of us sitting further back got splashed several times and ended up completely soaked.

Although drinks were unlimited, the rocking of the boat and the splashes made it hard to enjoy them after a while.

Thanks to the loud EDM music (?), it turned into a crazy experience typical of overseas adventures, but it was a far cry from what I had envisioned; it felt more like a tough pirate experience. I would recommend it for younger, party-loving people. Those who get seasick, are looking for a romantic atmosphere, or are with children or seniors might want to skip it.

I believe it also depends on the weather and the captain's driving, so I hope this can serve as a reference as a personal experience. Thank you!

サンセット自体はすごく綺麗に見え、非日常感もありましたが、イメージしていたサンセットクルーズとは違いました。。

私たちが参加した日は、沖に出ていくにつれとにかく波風がすごくて(海辺にいた時は感じませんでした。天気も晴天です)、船が転覆するのでは？というくらい揺れましたし、波飛沫がとにかくすごい！！！船のヘッドにいた方たちは頭から絶えず水をかぶるレベルで濡れていましたし(ヘッドは濡れるので注意してね！というアナウンスは事前にありましたが)、前の方に座っていた私たちも何度か頭から水を被り全身びっしょ濡れに、、、
飲み放題ですが、船の揺れと飛沫がすごいので途中からそれどころじゃなくなりました。

EDMがガンガンに流れていたおかげで(？)、海外らしいクレイジーな体験ということである意味思い出にはなりましたが、イメージしていたものとは程遠い過酷なパイレーツ体験でした。
おすすめは若くてパリピな方かな。
船酔いする方や、ロマンティックな雰囲気を求めている方、子供連れやシニアの方はやめておいた方がいいです。

当日の天候や船長の運転にもよるとは思うので、一体験談として参考にしていただけると幸いです。ありがとうございました！

The venue was compact, so I could see well. The performance was very Hawaiian and I was moved. I would like to see it again when I come back to Waikiki.

会場がコンパクトだったので、よく見えました。ハワイらしい演目で感動しました。
またワイキキへ来たら見たいです。

There were many popular songs, and it was a fun show. The backup dancers frequently changed costumes and seemed to be working hard as they took on multiple roles, but they did a great job!

ポピュラーな曲がたくさん出てきて、楽しいショーでした。バックダンサーの人たちは、衣装を度々変えて一人何役もこなして大変そうでしたが頑張ってました！

After checking in, I received a fresh flower lei. It was very cute.

Then, I was guided to my dining seat, but the groups were separated based on the purchased tickets. With the VIP ticket, I was able to go to the buffet first and enjoyed various privileges, which was convenient.

The food was very delicious. I especially found the Mai Tai to be very easy to drink, and I had two cups. During the meal, there was also live music and hula dancing, which added to the enjoyment.

Afterward, I moved to a seat to watch the show, and the VIP seats were in the first and second rows in the center, allowing me to enjoy the show from a very close distance. The VIP seats included two complimentary drinks, and I was able to enjoy the second drink while watching the show.

チェックインをした後、生花のレイをいただきました。とても可愛かったです。
その後食事の席に案内をされましたが、購入した座席によって、グループが分かれていました。VIPチケットの場合、ブッフェを先に取りに行けたり、何かと優遇されていて便利でした。

料理はとても美味しかったです。とくにマイタイがとても飲みやすく2杯飲みました。食事中にも楽器の演奏をしていただいたり、フラダンスが観れて楽しめました。

その後ショーを観るため座席を移動しましたが、VIP席は真ん中の一列目から2列までで、かなり近い席でショーを楽しむことができました。
VIP席は2杯分のドリンクがサービスでついており、2杯目はショーを観ながら飲むことができました。

まわりが明るすぎて　期待はずれでした。
前にハワイ島のマウナケアでサンセットと
星空鑑賞をしたので　比べてしまいました。

The entrance to the store is a bit hard to find. Go left where the sign is, and it's on the second floor after going up the stairs. The meal was a course with a limited selection, but I was full. It seems there are also various à la carte options. The server did not understand Japanese at all.

お店の入り口が少しわかりにくいです。
看板があるところを左手に進み、階段を進んだ2階です。
食事は品数は少ないコースでしたが、お腹はいっぱいになりました。単品メニューも色々あるようです。
サーバーには日本語が全く通じませんでした。

As expected from the world-renowned Cirque du Soleil. The performers' skills were amazing, and I was on the edge of my seat. There were moments when audience members were brought up on stage, which added to the fun.

Since there are performances that take place high above from the ceiling, I think sitting in the back where you can see the entire stage is perfectly fine. If you're in the front seats, you'll have to look up a lot, which might get a bit tiring. You can purchase beers and other drinks at the bar counter near the entrance and bring them in.

さすがは世界のシルクドソレイユです。
演者の技術も素晴らしく、ハラハラドキドキさせられました。お客様をステージに上げる場面もあり、楽しめました。
天井からの高さのあるパフォーマンスもあるため、ステージ全体が見える後ろでも全然いいと思います。
前の席だと見上げる形になるので少し疲れると思います。入り口付近にあるバーカウンターでビールなどを購入して持ち込めます。

Very chill evening. The crew was very laid back. We hada clear view of the fireworks, all while enjoying the a few adult beverages and making new friends and memories.

I had a great time being together with people from abroad. The guide seemed to understand a little Japanese, which made communication enjoyable. Above all, I think it's happy to share the time of enjoying the beautiful starry sky with those who love stars in Hawaii.

外国の方とも一緒になれて楽しかったです。ガイドの方は日本語も少しわかるようで楽しくコミュニケーションが取れました。何より、Hawaiiで星が好きな方々と綺麗な星空を見て楽しむという時間を共有できることがhappyだと思います。

ビュッフェスタイルの料理はおいしくて、おなか一杯食べてしまいました。
食事中にフラダンスやウクレレ演奏での歌などがあり楽しく過ごせました。
十分時間をとってからのショー会場への移動。
フラダンスや歌唱ショーなどあっという間の時間に感じるくらいの楽しさでした。
レイをいただいたのですが生花だったので自宅まで持って帰れなかったのが残念でした。

I signed up for the buffet and show plan. The buffet was delicious, offering a variety of meats to enjoy. There were also hula lessons along the way, which were fun.

And the show was amazing! In addition to the traditional hula and luau show, the performances featuring Elvis and Michael were incredibly exciting. It was great to take pictures together at the end as well.

ビュッフェとショーのプランに申し込みしました。ビュッフェはいろんなお肉も楽しめて美味しかったです。途中フラレッスンなどもあって楽しめました。
そしてショーは最高でした！伝統的なフラとルアウのショーに加えて、エルヴィスとマイケルのダンスとショーが最高に盛り上がりました。最後に一緒に写真も撮ってもらえてよかったです。

It was absolutely amazing.
I was in the front row, right in the center.
There was a guy sitting next to me who was moving strangely, and I thought it was scary.
Suddenly, he went up on stage, and security came over, so I was like, "What’s going on?!"
But it turned out to be one of the performers (the leader). Haha!

素晴らし過ぎました。
1番真ん中の最前列でした。
隣に変な動きする男の人が座って、怖いなと思ってました。
急に舞台にあがって、警備の人が来たので
えー！！どうなってるの？と思ったら
まさかの演者さん(団長)でした。笑

It was amazing to see the fireworks up close from the yacht! ✨ You can enjoy a different kind of fun compared to large ships. When boarding, you get on directly from the beach, but depending on the waves, you might get wet. By the way, I was soaked from the thighs down. 😅 I think it's good to keep that in mind when boarding.

ヨットなので花火が近い場所から見れて
最高でした✨
大型船とは違う楽しさを味わえます♪
乗船する時は浜辺から直接乗りますが
波の具合悪くよっては濡れます。
因みに私は太ももから下はびしょ濡れ😅
それを踏まえて乗船されるといいと思います。

The day I happened to experience it had a small number of people, and I was able to have it explained in Japanese, which was truly wonderful. It was a rare experience to see magic up close. The magic was so amazing that even watching it right in front of me, I couldn't figure out how it was done. It was a fantastic skill, and I had a great time. It really became an unforgettable memory.

たまたま体験した日の人数が少なく、日本語で説明してもらえ，とても素晴らしかったです。身近でマジックが見られ、なかなかできない体験でした。素晴らしいマジックで目の前で見ててもたねは分からず、素晴らしい技で、楽しいひとときを過ごせました。本当に忘れられないいい思い出になりました。

Every time I come to Hawaii, I've been searching for hula shows, but since COVID, they have really decreased. This time, I finally got to see an amazing show after a long time.

I already knew that the food at Hyatt was delicious, but it seems to have reached another level; it was incredibly tasty. The man in his 70s who came with me even went back for seconds three times! The seafood was also delicious, and I wished I had a bigger stomach to eat more.

The hula show was the highlight of this trip. We were the only Japanese people there; everyone else was from English-speaking countries. The singing and music were wonderful, and the dancers were so skilled and beautiful that I didn't know where to look. It was a dreamy experience, and I was completely immersed in it.

Since we reserved VIP seats, we were right in the front center. There were no staff members who understood Japanese, but I think we managed to communicate through gestures and efforts to understand each other. They were very kind.

ハワイに来るたび、フラのショーを探しまくって見てましたが、コロナ以降すごく減ってしまい、久しぶりに最高のショーが見れました。
ハイアットのご飯は美味しい事は知ってましたが、またレベルが上がったのか、素晴らしく美味しかったです。
一緒に行った70代男性はお肉を３回もおかわりしたくらいです。
シーフードもどれも美味しくて、もっと食べれるお腹があればいいのにと思いました。

フラのショーは今回の旅行で1番です。
日本人は私たちだけで、他はみなさん英語圏の方でした。
歌も音楽も素晴らしく、ダンサーさんたちはどこ見ていいのかわからなくなるくらいみなさん上手で綺麗で楽しくて、夢のような時間でした。没頭しました。
ＶＩＰで予約したので、1番前正面の席。
日本語がわかるスタッフさんはいませんでしたが、お互いに頑張って伝えようと身振り手振りで意思疎通できていたと思います。
優しかったです。
