All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

In 2015, it was just the two of us with three aunts who love alcohol. The night view of Waikiki and the fireworks created a different kind of excitement, and we enjoyed a fun time with drinks flowing.

2015年は友人と二人でしたが、お酒大好きのおばさん３人。ワイキキの夜景に花火前回とは違う盛り上がりでお酒もすすみ楽しいひと時でした。

For my husband and me, staying at the Sheraton Waikiki felt like setting sail from a private beach. The weather was clear and the waves were calm. Coincidentally, an American couple who had just finished their wedding, along with their guests, boarded the boat, adding to the joyful atmosphere. Enjoying various unlimited alcoholic drinks while watching the sunset was absolutely fantastic!

シェラトンワイキキに宿泊した私達夫婦にとってはプライベートビーチからの船出のような気分。天気晴朗にして波も穏やか。たまたま結婚式を終えたばかりの米カップルと参列者も乗り込み、幸せ気分も乗せて出航。飲み放題のアルコール各種試飲しながらの夕陽はサイコ―でした！

I chose this because I was staying at Outrigger Reef.
The boarding point is from the beach of Outrigger Reef.
Everyone except us was a foreigner, making for a very exotic sailing experience.
Soft drinks, Mai Tais, and Budweiser are all-you-can-drink, so people of all ages can enjoy it.
You will get quite wet, so a cover-up that can get wet is necessary.
It gets chilly once the sun sets.

アウトリガーリーフに宿泊していたこともあり選びました。
乗り場は、アウトリガーリーフのビーチからです。
自分たち以外は外国人で、異国感満載のセーリングになりました。
ソフトドリンクやマイタイやバドワイザーなども飲み放題なので、老若男女楽しめます。
かなり濡れますので、水着に濡れてもいい上着が必要です。
日が沈めば、はださむくなります。

Nice staff. Food was good and plentiful. Service good, though preordered fish was not available. Wish the jazz entertainment had started earlier. Cruising along the coast after sunset was nice. Not sure the evening was worth the cost

It was our first activity as soon as we got off our flight. Even though we had jet lag after a 6 hour flight we had the time of my life. My husband and I have never done a dinner cruise before. He is scared of water and gets sea sick fast. From the time we stepped foot on the boat we were greeted, seated quickly, music and entertainment was great, and Marissa our waitress was superb; we loved her and the guitarist they both were totally cool. Everything they brought out was very flavorful, the lobster was succulent not rubbery, steak cooked perfectly, and dessert was delicious. The drinks were also very good especially the blue Hawaiian; it was perfecto. We did not think we would be able to eat everything they were putting in front of us but they gave us just enough time in between each course that made it easier. When it came for the dessert I was so full I didnt think I could eat another bite. We thought we would just take one bite. You know just to try it but as soon as we took one bite it was just too good we both ended up eating it all. At the end they had everyone dancing it was a very fun and delicious experience.

The Luau was very nice, good food, exciting, and romantic. My husband and I really hate buffets because people like putting their hands directly into the food. Which is totally gross but all luaus are buffets. Even though it was against our norm friends advised us when going to Hawaii it was one thing we just had to do. We decided to try it even though we are super against buffets. I must say we were wrong and we were totally glad we went to this one. We reserved it on my birthday evening and it was really romantic. It was on a roof top so you could see the beach and sun setting, the food was really good, the staff, dancers, entertainment were great and kept our attention. Everyone was so friendly and staff was very attentive. It was the most exciting, fun, and romantic birthday I ever had. I must add not one person placed their dirty little paws in the food which was a big relief for us.

Thank you all for making it the most remarkable and memorable birthday ever.

I participated on the day I arrived in Hawaii. The only downside was that no one spoke Japanese, but that didn't matter because I had a wonderful time with stunning views. It felt great, and since it was sunny, I was able to see a beautiful sunset. I was lucky to also see a rainbow on the mountain side. I definitely want to join again on my next trip to Hawaii!

ハワイ到着日に参加しました。
日本語はまったく通じないのが難点でしたが…
そんなことは気にならないくらい素晴らしい景色、素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。
とにかく気持ちが良くて、晴れていたのでサンセットもきれいに見れました。
山側に虹も見れてラッキーでした。
次回のハワイ旅行でもまた参加したいと思います！

I attended with a female friend. The fireworks looked different from the venue, and it was great. There was a foreign couple being affectionate the whole time, and I thought I’d like to go with a partner next time. Haha.

女友達と参加しました。花火も会場から見るものはまた違って見えてよかったです。外国人のカップルが終始イチャイチャしてて次はカップルで行きたいって思いました。笑

I had a wonderful time cruising while enjoying free drinks, including champagne. We even spotted whales nearby, and the sunset was perfect.

とても気持ちよくフリードリンクでシャンパンも楽しみながらクルーズできました。
途中クジラも近くに見られてサンセットもバッチリでした

Loved it!!! Most Perfect wedding ever! The staff was amazing, dinner, everything was wonderful. Highly recommend this. Thank you so very much, loved it all. Cheryl

I was attracted to the point where I could enjoy both drinks and a sunset cruise, so I signed up. While on board, I could enjoy the scenery without getting wet and felt a pleasant breeze. There’s nothing to obstruct the view, so the sunlight is dazzling until the sun sets, making sunglasses a must. This was my fourth time in Hawaii, but seeing the streets of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea offered a different perspective, which was wonderful. The duration was as planned, and I was able to stick to my schedule after the cruise without any issues.

お酒とサンセットクルーズ同時に楽しめるポイントに惹かれて申込みしました。
乗船中は濡れることもなく、気持ちの良い風を浴びながら景色を堪能できます。
遮るものがないので夕日が落ちる前までは日差しが眩しいので、サングラス必須です。
4度目のハワイでしたが海から見るワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドは一味違う景色で、とても良かったです。
所要時間も予定通りで乗船後の予定も狂うことなく過ごすことが出来ました。

The food was good, the music was great, the entertainment was great, but I wish I would have purchased the better package. We were in an area with a bunch of younger tourists and we felt out of place.

The quality of the performers' impersonations was surprisingly high, and the production was excellent, making it an enjoyable show overall. However, the group of guests in the front row was drunk, and it was very unpleasant that they kept crossing in front of me during the show, either to go to the restroom or for other reasons.

出演者のモノマネのクオリティが予想以上に高く、また、演出も素晴らしくてショーとしては十分楽しめました。ただ、前席の団体客が酔っ払っており、トイレに行くのか、ショーの真っ最中に代わる代わる目の前を横切って行くのが非常に不愉快でした。

We celebrated our wedding anniversary last December 17, 2016 aboard the Star of Honolulu Sunset dinner cruise and it was a very memorable experienced we had. The ship was clean, foods were very good, staff are super friendly and attentive and the emcee and dancers are spectacular. Everyone participated either with singing or dancing. It's was just plain AWESOME, Thank You.

I flew from Los Angeles to celebrate a best friend's birthday in January 2017, and made up another friend's and my own birthday (in November). I treated my friends and myself with the Five Star - Luxury French Cuisine with Live Jazz. It's was a great evening with the hula dancer's Happy Birthday song to my friend, the waiters cordial and professional service, delicious meal, conversation/fellowship time, pianist and jazz music performance which was very interactive with the guests, and nice view of the Sunset, Wikikki hotel "forest" and Diamond Head. Everything was perfect! Absolutely loved it. And it's a great and memorial experience for my friends, too! Thank you all for serving us!

Enjoyed our evening on the catamaran. Food was awesome, bar, music and an amazing view of Honolulu!!!

Beautiful cruise overlooking the Waikiki beach front. The buffet was good with plenty of variety and tasty food. wonderful on board entertainment with passenger participation wife has a bad knee and the crew went out of their way to get a wheelchair and move around to and from the bus to ship to the bus.

The guys were really friendly and sincerely wanted everyone to have a good time. We got pretty drunk off that uh oh juice and the sunset was beautiful.

I participated to create a final memory of my trip. I was very satisfied to be able to enjoy a beautiful starry sky and fireworks while drinking a Mai Tai. It's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting wet, as you will get wet up to your shins when boarding. I participated in January, and the weather was great, with just the right temperature to enjoy. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

旅行の最後の思い出にと参加しました。
マイタイを飲みながらきれいな星空と花火を見ることができとても満足できました。
乗り込みの際にひざ下ぐらいまで濡れるので濡れてもいい格好で参加したほうがいいです。
１月の参加でしたが、とてもいい天気で気温もちょうどよくて楽しめました。
機会があればまた参加したいです。

I participated with my daughter, and there were only two Japanese people. It felt great to feel the wind more than on a big ship. There was also a couple dancing energetically, making it a really fun time.

娘と参加で、日本人は二人ボッチでした。(^-^;
大きな船より風を感じられて気持ち良かったです。
ノリノリで踊っているご夫婦もいて凄く楽しい時間でした。

It was my first time going to Oahu n I was really excited to go on STAR OF HONOLULU n I absolutely loved it so much That I am already planning to come back again this year...

I read in the reviews that there are few Japanese people and the explanations are in English, but it was a completely problem-free relaxing time. I go to Hawaii about twice a year, so I signed up for various optional tours, but this tour is one I can't miss next time. Since it was late January, it was indeed cold due to the strong winds. A light jacket is necessary.

口コミでは日本人は少ないし説明も英語なので・・とありましたが、全く問題なしのリラックスタイムでした。ハワイは年に2回ほど行きますので色々なオプショナルツアーに申し込みましたがこちらのツアーは次回も外せないです。１月下旬だったので、風が強いこともあり確かに寒かったです。羽織るものは必要ですね。

I was considering a dinner cruise, but after referring to other people's experiences, I chose the cocktail cruise. I was a bit anxious about whether I would enjoy it, but it turned out to be a great decision. The sunset from the coast is beautiful, but watching the sunset from the cruiser while feeling the thrill of the ride was exceptionally stunning. Thanks to the cheerful and high-energy crew and the other foreign guests, the atmosphere was great, and I had a wonderful time.

ディナークルーズにしようかと思ってましたが、他の方の体験談を参照し、カクテルクルーズを選択しました。
楽しめるか少し不安でしたが、結果は大正解でした。海岸からのサンセットも綺麗ですが、クルーザーの疾走感とともに海の上から観るサンセットはまた格別に綺麗でした。陽気でハイテンションなクルーや他の外国人客のおかげて、雰囲気も良く楽しい時間を過ごせました。

Great sunset sail. Music was awesome and views were even more amazing. Captain and bartender were also equally amazing which made out sail even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend and do this again on my next trip. Worth every penny.

The itinerary includes departing, cruising towards Diamond Head for a while, turning back, waiting in front of the Hilton, and then the fireworks start. The fireworks last about 10 minutes. The sequence is as follows: beach docking. They say that "Mai Tai" is easy to make, and they keep saying "Mai Tai, Mai Tai!" The only soft drink available is canned pineapple. By the way, we were the only Japanese people there. None of the crew spoke Japanese. It might be fun for those who understand English.

内容としては出航→ダイヤモンドヘッド方面へしばらくクルーズ→折り返し→ヒルトン前で待機→花火開始　花火は１０分程度で終わり→船着きビーチの順です。飲み物は「マイタイ」が簡単に作れるらしく「マイタイ、マイタイ！」と言ってきます。ソフトドリンクは缶のパイナップルのみ。ちなみに日本人は私達だけでした。クルーも日本語は全員ダメ。英語が分かる人は楽しいかもね。

We had the best time. The crew was great and we met some good friends. We will definitely be doing this again.

Were initially concerned when we saw the cat and number of people going on the cruise however once on board there was ample room. We both had great time the cruise was smooth and fireworks excellent, the crew entertaining and efficient certainly looked after everyone on board. Would recommend it if you want to experience something a little different and have some fun. May not appeal to everyone as there was a bit of drinking but nothing offensive. Well done!

The sunset sail was a great way to end our week on Oahu. Fun crew, great drinks, beautiful sunset and gorgeous views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. They gave us a great suggestion for dinner after the sail as well. Thanks for the making our final night so memorable.

I experienced this on the same day I arrived in Hawaii.

First, the meeting point was hard to find (there are quite a few similar boats), so I walked quite a bit on Waikiki Beach. You enter the water when boarding. There is a risk of sandals without heels being swept away (a child's sandal was lost).

With unlimited drinks and loud music, I thought it might be a young crowd, but families with children were also there, and other guests were friendly and chatted with us (though it might depend on the boat). We had a great time. There were no other Japanese people besides us.

Although it's always summer in Hawaii, the night cruise was cold. I recommend bringing a jacket.

I was hesitant to use the restroom, but I couldn't hold it due to the cold and ended up using it. It's an interesting restroom that you enter by going down a ladder. It's very cramped, and I didn't know how to lock it. It wasn't too dirty, and the smell wasn't bothersome.

The fireworks viewed from the sea were exceptional. The night view was also very beautiful, but the ocean was pitch dark.

Next time, I would like to try the sunset cruise as well.

ハワイに到着したその日に体験しました。
まず、集合場所がわかりづらく（同じような船がけっこうある）ワイキキビーチをかなり歩きました。乗船する際に海に入ります。かかとのないサンダルは流される危険ありです（子供のサンダルが流されました。）
お酒飲み放題で音楽がガンガンかかっていて、若者のノリかとも思いましたが、子連れファミリーでもほかのお客さんが気さくに話しかけてくれたり（その時の船によるでしょうが）、とても楽しめました。日本人は私たち以外にはいませんでした。
常夏のハワイですが、ナイトクルーズは寒かったです。上着を持つことをお勧めします。
トイレはなるべく使用したくないな～と思っていましたが、冷えのせいか我慢できず使用しました。梯子を下りて入る面白いトイレです。とにかく狭い。鍵のかけかたがわからない。それほど汚くはなくにおいも気になりませんでした。
海から見る花火は格別でした。夜景もとてもきれいでしたが、海は真っ暗です。
次回はサンセットクルーズも乗ってみたいです。

I was worried about the weather, but even if it rained during this time, it stopped quickly (raincoats were provided). The sunset behind the stage was very beautiful. There were many participants due to Christmas, but the seats were close, allowing us to fully enjoy the show. The show was authentic and very impressive.

天気が心配でしたが、この時期は雨が降ってもすぐにやみました（カッパが配られました。）
舞台のバックでは夕景が非常にきれいでした。
クリスマスで非常に参加者が多かったですが、席も近くショウを堪能できました。
ショウは本格的で見ごたえ十分です。
