All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

Very smooth ride, we had a blast! Would do it again

I wanted to enjoy activities at the beach and have fun drinking!

I decided to participate because it seemed like they could accommodate those requests. I heard from other comments that there were hardly any Japanese people, but during my time, there were about three other groups.

I don't understand the language at all, but the atmosphere is nice.

It feels like only the Japanese are enjoying the all-you-can-drink option. The other foreigners were taking orders.

But even though it was a short time, it was quite fulfilling.

- The view of Diamond Head in the daylight
- The sight of numerous yachts floating on the sea
- The view of Honolulu from the ocean
- A wonderful sunset
- Diamond Head glowing in the sunset light

Additionally, it was quite windy on the yacht, so I brought something to wear. Just when I started to feel a bit tipsy, my friend's shirt flew away!!

It got blown away by the wind and disappeared into the sea...

Oh no (laughs).

Well, since we had some drinks, we laughed about it, and it became a fun memory.

Everyone, please be careful not to lose anything in the sea!

海でのアクティビティも楽しみたいし
お酒も楽しく飲みたい！

そんな要望を答えてくれそうだったから
参加しました。
他の人のコメントでは、日本人がほとんどいないと
聞いていたけど、私の時は、他に３組ほどいました。

言葉は全然分からないけど、雰囲気は良いです。

日本人だけ飲み放題な感じです。
他の外国人の人たちは、注文とってたし。



でも短時間なのに、かなり充実していました。

？明るいうちのダイヤモンドヘッド
？海に浮く数々のヨットの景色
？海から見るホノルルの景色
？ステキな夕日
？夕日に照らされて燃えるようなダイヤモンドヘッド


その他に、
ヨットの上は風が強いから羽織るものを持っていきました。
そしたら酔いもほろほろになってきたころ
友達のシャツが！！

風に飛ばされて海の彼方に消えていきました・・・

あ～あ（笑）

まっ、お酒も入っているから
笑っちゃって、楽しい思い出になっています。


皆さんも海に落し物が無いよう
気をつけてください。

I signed up for the luau. At first, I made a reservation without a meal, but I reconsidered and it turned out to be a great decision. The buffet was plentiful and delicious, but the welcome drink seemed to be a Blue Hawaii style with zero alcohol. During the meal, a young couple played the ukulele and performed hula, and I felt their sincerity and dedication. They were not overly pushy, which was very refreshing.

As for the impersonation show members, there were two Elvis impersonators (one for the first half and one for the second half), as well as Lady Gaga, Elton John, and Michael Jackson. I was impressed by how well they researched and practiced their performances, showing a strong professional spirit and dedication to their work.

At the end of the show, we were able to take commemorative photos together and get autographs. Some people missed out on getting autographs, but a manager-like person in a black suit and glasses quickly went to the dressing room and brought back autographs for everyone, which made me very happy. I didn’t catch their name, but I am grateful. It was so much fun!

　ルアウつきで申し込みました。最初、食事なしで予約し、考え直して当たりでした。BUFFET式で、種類も多く、おいしかったですが、ウエルカムドリンクが、ブルーハワイ風でアルコール分はゼロだったような．．．　食事中、ウクレレで曲をかなで、フラを披露してくれた、若いふたりが一生懸命で、誠実さを感じました。客ずれしてなくてとても好感を持てました。　ものまねショーのメンバーでは、プレスリー（二人いて、前半、後半）、ガガ、エルトン・ジョン、マイケル・ジャクソン、全員よく本人達を研究し、練習を重ねプロ意識を持ち仕事してるな、頑張ってるな、と感心しました。　ショー終了時、記念写真を一緒にとれましたし、サインももらえ、もらいそこねた人もいたのですが、黒いスーツで、眼鏡をかけた、マネージャーらしき人が機転をきかせて楽屋まで行き、貰ってきてくれ、全員分のサインがそろい、とても嬉しかったです。名まえはわかりませんでしたが、感謝してます。　すごく楽しかったです！

The day I participated was mostly cloudy, and unfortunately, the sunset was hidden behind the clouds. However, I was deeply moved when the sun briefly showed its face.

I also went on a snorkeling tour during the daytime cruise, but the night view of Waikiki was so beautiful that I recommend the sunset cruise if you have to choose one.

I had trouble finding the restroom, but if you ask the staff, they will guide you. There is a lever at the entrance to flush the toilet. It was cleaner than I expected.

I think it's the best activity you can easily join from Waikiki!

参加した日は一日曇りがちでしたが、サンセットも残念ながら太陽がかくれていました。なので一瞬顔を見せた夕日に感動ひとしおでした。

昼間のクルージングもシュノーケリングツアーで乗りましたが、ワイキキの夜景がとてもきれいだったので、どちらか乗るならサンセットがおすすめです。

トイレがわからなくて困りましたが、スタッフに声をかければ案内してくれます。水を流すのは入口のところにレバーがあります。思ったより清潔でした。

ワイキキから気軽に参加できる最高のアクティビティだと思います！

had a great time on the cruise. food was great. the view was awsome. the staff was great. loved the entertainment. you are treated very well.

I had seen a hula dance show in Guam before. I wondered if it would be similar, but since I was in Hawaii, I decided to watch it there as well. Even though the type of dance was the same, it was truly amazing no matter how many times I saw it!!! I got to see a lot of different types of dances, and the fire dance was absolutely captivating!!! It was so incredible that I still can't forget it and I want to see it again☆ The women were beautiful, and the men were strong♪ It was a lot of fun!!!

以前グアムでもフラダンスショーは見たことがありました。
似た感じなのかなぁと思いましたが、せっかくなのでハワイ
でも見る事に♪
ダンスの種類は同じでもやっぱり何度見てもすばらしい!!!
いろんな種類のダンスがいっぱい見れたし、何と言っても
ファイヤーダンスがくぎ付け!!!
すごくて今でも忘れられないしまた見たいって思いました☆
女性は綺麗だったし男性はたくましかったし♪
とても楽しかったです!!!

Ship was clean, sailing was fun. The food was not especailly great (except the cream puffs--defrosted frozen, love them!), and I was surprised that the alcohol was not good quality and the beer was limited to two types. We just sailed back and forth for about 1 1/2 hours off the coast of Waikiki, saw fireworks that lasted about 10 mins, and couldn't see them well unless you were on the front of the boat (and not everyone could fit up there. The crew were polite but not very interactive. Wouldn't do it again.

I participated in a company trip with my colleagues. We also attended a cruising show, but unlike the audience participation shows, this one had a much more relaxed pace, and there were moments when I felt a bit sleepy just watching. Since we had premium seats, we were the first to eat, but the food was quite bland, so I didn't enjoy it much. I was left with the impression that the fruit was the most delicious part, which was disappointing. The climax of the fire dance was very impressive, but considering the food and the price, I can't say I was completely satisfied.

会社の旅行で同僚達と参加しました。
クルージングのショーにも参加しましたが客席参加のものとは異なり、かなりゆったりした進行で、ほとんどがショーを見だけで若干眠くなる場面もありました。
プレミアムシートだったので、食事は一番乗りで食べられたのですが、内容が大味すぎて今ひとつ食はすすみませんでした。フルーツが一番美味しかったような印象なのが残念に感じました。
クライマックスのファイアーダンスは見応え満点でしたが、食事、値段なども合わせると大満足とはいきませんでした。

It was a trip with three middle-aged men. Last time, we spent our time playing golf on a trip that was postponed for a year due to 9/11. This time, one of the companions, who is from a certain prestigious yacht club, expressed a desire to go sailing, so I searched online.

Fortunately, we managed to book the fireworks for Friday. We parked the rental car in the parking area and arrived at the yacht harbor in just three minutes on foot. While looking for the ticket booth, I found two Hawaiian girls at the far end inside the booth. When I asked them in my broken English, it turned out to be a lucky coincidence. I wish they had provided a bit more information in the instructions.

Before departure, I took a picture of the sunset. Other participants included only us Japanese and a newlywed couple. The rest were about twenty Americans. The explanations were in English and were quite brief.

We set sail and navigated around Waikiki and Kahala. The view from the sea was breathtaking. I had an unpleasant memory of being swept away while windsurfing off Kahala when I was younger. We spent time until the fireworks with beer and light snacks, which were quite nice. I was surprised by the strength of the Hawaiian girl crew when they raised the sails.

We went back and forth in the bay until the fireworks, and everyone was in a state of "Are the fireworks really going to happen?" Gradually, as they lowered the sails and we were just floating around, the fireworks went off with a bang. I expected Japanese fireworks, but the fireworks off the coast of Hawaii were quite impressive as well. The older Americans danced to the music.

It lasted about ten minutes. I highly recommend it. As stated, a windbreaker is essential. We, the middle-aged men, were satisfied and headed back home.

A wonderful experience from start to finish.

From the moment you board, as a couple, family, or with friends, you truly
relax and unwind with fantastic crew, hospitality and the most amazing scenery you could possible wish for.

Certainly a must to do do whilst in Waikiki.

We bought tickets from the site in Australia and thought we were getting a "Sunset/fireworks cruise" however when we got there we were on a moonlight cruise. (Which is the one we wanted. I think your site needs to clarify the differnece in the two tours a bit better. The sunset cruise went out at 5.00 and the one we were on was 6.30. Having said that we were placed on the right one as we wanted to see the fireworks which were fantasic.
The staff were amazing and we had a very memorable time. I would highly recommend this activity to all but just get clarification as to what cruise you actually want to be on.
D&D, Melbourne Australia. October 2012

Since I attended alone, I chose the cocktail and show-only course. Everything was in English, but even as someone who doesn't usually listen to Western music, I recognized most of the songs, and rather than just impersonations, the entertainers were fantastic, so I enjoyed it until the end.

However, the more expensive course has seats on the first floor (I was on the second floor), where the stars come closer, and it feels like you're participating in the show. I thought I would like to choose that course next time.

Still, even with the cocktail-only course, I was able to take photos with the performers after the show.

一人での参加だったのでカクテル＆ショーのみのコースにしました。
全て英語でしたが、普段洋楽を聴かない私でも知っている曲ばかりだったし、モノマネと言うよりエンターティナーとして素晴らしかったので最後まで楽しめました。

でも高いコースの方が1階席で(私は2階でした)スターも近くに来てくれるし、ショーに参加してるような気分になれそう。
次回はそちらのコースにしたいと思いました。

でも、カクテルのみのコースでも終了後に出演者と一緒に写真を撮れました。

It was a long wait from when we entered until the show started, and since we went on the day of our arrival, I ended up feeling sleepy towards the end of the show. We had to go up in turns to get the food, but our seats were towards the back, so we had to wait quite a bit and had nothing to do in the meantime. It was a bit disappointing. However, we made some good memories.

入ってから、ショーが始まるまでが長く、到着日に行ったので、ショーの終わりの方は睡くなって、しまいました。
料理も順番に取りに行くのですが、私たちの席は最後の方だったので、かなり待たされ、ずっとする事もなくダラダラでした。
少し残念。
でもいい思い出ができました。

I attended on October 30th, and the weather was great that day, making me feel very rich.

I definitely want to participate again next time.

It's perfect for couples!

10月30日に参加しましたが、当日は天気も良くとってもリッチな気分になれました。

ぜひ、次回も参加したいと思います。

ｶｯﾌﾟﾙには最高～

Amazing sunset and smooth ride! Loved the net seat!

I felt the pleasant Hawaiian breeze, and the cruise was very enjoyable. On this day, the ship hardly swayed, making for a comfortable cruise. The cocktails served were also delicious. While listening to upbeat music, I was able to see a very beautiful sunset, which was the best part.

As for precautions, I think it was important to stay inside the red lines of the hammock once we were out at sea and to avoid sitting in the areas painted blue. I felt the cheerful spirit of the Americans. Bringing snacks along is also fun.

心地の良いハワイの風を感じながら、クルーズは、とっても気持ちよかったです。
この日は、船はほとんど揺れず快適なクルーズでした。出された、カクテルも美味しかったです。
乗りの良い音楽を聴きながら、とても美しい夕日をみることができて、最高でした。
注意事項は、恐らく沖に出たらハンモックの赤いラインの内側にいること、ブルーに塗ってある場所に座らないことだったと思います。
アメリカ人の方が底抜けの陽気さを感じました。
お菓子なんかを持って行くのも楽しいです。

The Quintessential Hawaiian Experience

If you're looking for a pleasant, relaxing dinner on the water this is the option for you - I would highly recommend the the three star option - the slight price difference is worth it.

Although there are a lot of guests on board it's not loud nor do you have a feeling of being over crowded. The lobster is wonderful and they have staff that come and around crack the shell for you! you can get as messy as you want though once she's revealed the majority of the crayfish for you

Steak is a small serve but very satisfying and in between meals popping up to the top deck is fantastic - the Honolulu skyline is gorgeous and the fresh warm air simply wonderful - it's a great way to start or end any Hawaiian Vacation or celebrate a special occasion.

Mahalo Star of Honolulu Team!

This Catamaran outting was definitely worth the price for anyone. My wife and I enjoyed the staff courtesy during the whole trip. They provide all you can drink choices which was great during the beautiful sunset ride. They played nice music from beginning to end which was relaxing. The Sunset is beautiful from out in the water coasting along. I would definitely go on this ride again when visiting here.

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii, and I participated in a dinner show for the first time. While a similar show can be enjoyed at the Polynesian Cultural Center, I chose this one because my accommodation was at Hilton and I was traveling with my 5-year-old child, allowing us to enjoy it without wasting travel time.

When making the reservation, I debated between regular seating and the Golden Circle seats. I opted for the Golden Circle seats, hoping to arrive early and sit in the front row. As planned, we arrived early at the meeting point, maintained a good position during the move, and entered the venue ahead of time. However, the seat assigned to us by the staff was a somewhat awkward spot with a few people in front of us. Many front-row seats in the Golden Circle were available, but I believe they were reserved for group guests. Since we were a party of three, we ended up sharing a table with other smaller groups.

The venue had large square tables for eight set up on three sides of a big stage, with the closest tables to the stage designated as Golden Seats. The regular seats were located about two meters behind the Golden Seats, separated by an aisle. The seat at the very back of the Golden Seats was only about two meters different from the regular seats. Additionally, if you are an owner of the Hilton Grand Vacation Club, you could upgrade to the Golden Seats for free at the regular seat price. I ended up spending unnecessarily without knowing this.

In terms of cost performance, I would rate the regular seats three stars and the Golden Circle seats two stars. The luau itself was very good.

通算6回目のハワイで、初めてこのようなディナーショーに参加しました。
ポリネシアカルチャーセンターでも同じようなショーが楽しめますが、宿泊先がヒルトンだったのと、5歳になる子供が一緒のため、移動時間のロスなく楽しめるこちらにしました。

予約の際、普通席かゴールデンサークル席か迷いましたが、早めに行って最前列で観れれば、と思い、ゴールデンサークル席にしました。結果、予定通り早めに集合場所に行き、移動中も良い位置をキープし早めに会場入りできましたが、係りの方に案内された席は前に数名いる中途半端な席でした。他のゴールデンサークル席の最前列は沢山開いていたのに、団体客用に取っておく必要があるのだと思います。うちは３名参加だったので、他の少人数の参加者との相席になりました。

会場は四角い大きな舞台の３辺に８名掛けのテーブルが並べられ、舞台から一番近いテーブルがゴールデンシートになっていました。ゴールデンシートから２ｍほどの通路を挟んだ後方のテーブルが普通席です。ゴールデンシートの一番後ろの席になると、普通席と２ｍほどしか変わりません。
また、ヒルトン・グランド・バケーション・クラブのオーナーなら、普通席の料金でゴールデンシート席へ無料アップグレードできました。知らずに無駄な出費をしてしまいました。
コスパは普通席なら☆３つ、ゴールデンサークル席なら☆２つ。
ルアウ自体はとても良かったです。

Food was very good. Took the cruise on Friday and saw fireworks from the Hilton Hawaiian Village which were spectacular. Also, took the city lights tour which was spectacular as well.

I felt安心 with the Japanese-speaking staff. Additionally, snorkeling was a valuable experience, and I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle. What surprised me the most was how delicious the food served on the boat was when we were all hungry after snorkeling. Overall, it was a tour that was packed with value.

日本語スタッフで安心でした。また、シュノーケリングも貴重な体験で、ウミガメも運良く見れました。何より意外だったのが、シュノーケリング後のお腹ペコペコな時に出された船上での料理が凄く美味しかったです。全体的にボリューム満点なツアーでした。

I participated in the VIP room plan with meals included. The impersonations were fantastic, aiming for perfection. However, it became boring. The time spent was excessively long. Starting with drink time in the green room, followed by waiting, and finally the show after finishing the meal. It was over five hours from the meeting time to when we were finally released. I was quite sleepy during the event, battling drowsiness. I felt bad being in the second row from the front... However, taking a commemorative photo with the impersonators was a nice memory. The food was surprisingly decent for the price. If you haven't seen it before, I think it's worth going, but the enjoyment may vary depending on your interest in the era and music.

食事付きVIPルームのプランで参加しました。
ものまね自体は完璧性を求めて素晴らしかったです。
ただ、飽きます。拘束されている時間が非常に長すぎる。
グリーンルームでのドリンクタイムから始まり、待機時間、食事を済ませてやっとのショー。集合時間から開放される時間まで5時間以上。
かなり、途中で睡魔が襲ってきて 睡魔との戦いでした。
前から2列目だったので、申し訳なかったのですが……。
ものまね芸人さんとの記念写真は思い出になっていいと思います。
食事も意外と、値段相応にそこそこいけます。
一度見たことがなければ、行くのもアリだとは思いますが、
年代と音楽に関しての関心度で、楽しさが変わると思います。

When staying at Hilton, I will take my children because they want to see the show, but I think the short stay is quite expensive. The dining arrangements vary depending on the price of the seats, so I recommend the more expensive seats. With the cheaper seats, it feels like the show starts just as you finish your meal. However, since it's a major show, I definitely recommend making a reservation in advance for those who want specific seats on their desired viewing date.

ヒルトンに宿泊すると子供が観賞したがるので連れて行きますが、ショートしてはかなり割高だと思います。
シートの値段によって食事への案内が変わるので、高い席がお勧めです。安い席だと食事を取り終える頃にはショーが始まってしまう感じです。
ただメジャーなショーなので希望の席を希望する観賞日でという方は是非事前に予約をお勧めします。

On the first night of my arrival on Oahu, I watched a show to experience Hawaii. It started while it was still light out, and as dusk turned to night, the content of the show shifted from a relaxed pace to the intense fire dance. The show featured a variety of different performances in a short span, and I learned that there are many types of hula, making me want to delve into its history. The buffet before the show was delicious, and I was able to enjoy traditional dishes to my heart's content, which left me very satisfied. I think it's worth seeing for first-timers.

オアフ島到着初日の夜にハワイを感じるためショーを見ました。
まだ明るい時間からスタートし、だんだん夕暮れから夜になるにつれ、ショーの内容もゆったりしたものからファイヤーダンスの激しいものに変化をしていきます。
ショーも短いスパンでいろんな趣向のものを見せて頂き、一概にフラと言っても色んな種類があることを学びました。フラの歴史を紐解きたくなりました。
ショーの前のバイキングのお料理もどれも美味しく、伝統料理をお腹いっぱい食すことが出来、大満足でした。
初めての方は一度見てみるといいかな、と思いました。

It becomes a look-alike show, similar to what you would find in Japan. There was no Japanese at all, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I had the cheapest cocktail course, but my seat was decent, and I was able to watch the show. After the show, there was also a photo and autograph session available regardless of the course. PS. It's not suitable for children. It's a course aimed at middle-aged people.

日本で言うとモノマネそっくりさんショーになります。日本語は一切ありませんが、十分楽しめました。私は一番安いカクテルコースでしたが、席も悪くなくショーを見ることができました。ショーの後の写真・サイン会もコースに関係なく対応していただけます。PS.子供は無理です。中年向けのコースです。

I participated in this luau show because I wanted to immerse myself in the Hawaiian atmosphere during my stay. I made a reservation early with high hopes, but just because I booked early doesn’t guarantee a good seat (cry). It felt like they were seating us in order of arrival. The host spoke in English, so I couldn’t understand what was being said, which might reduce the enjoyment for those who don’t speak English, but the dancing was truly amazing, as expected from the authentic setting. The fire dance, in particular, was incredibly powerful and the best part! The venue isn’t very large, so I think you can see the show well from any spot. Therefore, I felt that it’s sufficient to go with a standard seat without paying extra. The only advantage of the premium seats is that they let you go to the buffet first. The food was fairly good.

滞在中によりハワイ気分を味わいたくて、このルアウショーに参加しました。
気合を入れて早くから予約していたのですが、早く予約を入れたからといっていい席とは限らないのですね（泣）
入場した順番で前の席から案内されるといったカンジでした。
司会進行役（？）の方が英語なので何を言っているのかわからず、英語を話せない方にとっては楽しさ半減かもしれませんが、ダンスはさすが本場だけあって素晴らしかったです。
特にファイヤーダンスが迫力満点で最高でした！
場所的にはそんなに広くないのでどの場所からでもショーは良く見えると思います。
なので、わざわざ高いお金を払わなくてもスタンダードシートで十分だと思いました。
プレミアムシートのメリットはブュッフェを先に取りに行かせてくれるぐらいです。
料理はまあまあ美味しかったです。

This was my fourth time in Hawaii. In the past three visits, I participated in sunset cruises with dinner, but this time I wanted to try a different cruise, so I chose this one. It turned out to be a great decision. There was only one other group of Japanese people besides us. In Waikiki, which is usually filled with Japanese tourists, this cruise offers a taste of foreign charm. Unlimited Mai Tais and the views were fantastic! The homey atmosphere where everyone starts dancing to the music is something you can't easily experience in Japan! The small boat does sway quite a bit, but that adds to the thrill! I definitely want to participate again next time.

4回目のハワイ。過去3回、ディナー付のサンセットクルーズに参加していましたが、いつもと違うクルーズがしたいと思い、こちらを選択。結果、大正解でした。私たちのほかに日本人グループは１組だけ。日本人だらけのワイキキにあって、このクルーズは外国情緒を味わえます。マイタイ飲み放題、景色も最高！みんな音楽に合わせて踊りだすアットホームな雰囲気は日本ではなかなか味わえません！小さい船だから結構揺れますが、それもスリリング！次回からも参加したいと思います。

The meals are buffet style, but the taste is quite delicious. The show is also worth seeing. However, I arrived late and had trouble finding the venue since it was in a hard-to-locate area. The Hilton is very large, so it would be nice to have a map attached.

食事は、ビッフェスタイルですが、味はかなり美味しいです。ショーも見ごたえがあります。ただ、集合時間に遅れて行ってしまったので、会場がわかりずらい所で探すのが苦労しました。ヒルトンは、とても広いので案内図が添付されているといいですね。

We had an absolutely terrific time. The staff was great!

My friend and I booked the VIP evening which included a 3 course meal. The food was beautifully presented and delivered by a friendly waitress, each course, although not necessarily to our taste, was very good, especially the dessert, the chef even came out afterwood to ask if everything had been satisfactory. The entertainment was excellent and had everyone singing along to the old favorites.
One criticism would be that having 2 Elvis performers was a little too much, the first Elvis (younger) was great, the second, although good was not as good.
Overall a great night which will not be forgotton.
