All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

This is my fifth time in Waikiki, and last year, I learned about Rock-a-Hula through a friend's recommendation. My family of four enjoyed the show from the stage-side VIP seats, and I couldn't forget the excitement from that time, so this year, my wife and I came back again.

The VIP dinner, cocktails, and show began with a welcome hula at the VIP entrance, followed by a welcome reception. For dinner, we had lobster with rainbow salad, natural Alaska salmon, and tenderloin beef at the front row seats. For dessert, we enjoyed pineapple delight, and we ordered beer and wine. To finish off, I had Kona blend coffee while my wife had tea, making for a plentiful dinner.

The performances featuring Elvis, Michael Jackson, and the fire show were incredibly impressive, rivaling those in Las Vegas, all taking place at the Royal Hawaiian Center. The show was even more powerful than a year ago, blending rock and Hawaiian music in a thrilling and emotional performance that left us in awe.

After the show, we had the opportunity to take photos with the performers, and we spent a thoroughly satisfying time from entrance to exit. My wife was completely captivated and is eager to return next year. I highly recommend the VIP seats for the dinner, cocktails, and show at Rock-a-Hula, where you can truly feel one with the stage.

今回で5度目のワイキキですが、昨年、知人の薦めで、このロック・ア・フラを知り、ステージサイドVIP席
にて、家族4人、ショーを堪能し、あの時の興奮が忘れられず今年も妻と二人で来てしまいました。
VIPディナー&カクテル&ショーは、VIP専用入り口でのウェルカムフラに始まりウェルカムレセプションへ、
ディナーはステージ最前列席にてレインボーサラダ添えロブスターに天然アラスカサーモン・テンダーロンイン
ビーフ、デザートにはパイナップルデライト、ビールにワインもオーダーし、締めは、私はコナブレンドコーヒー、妻は紅茶と盛り沢山のディナーでした。
プレスリーにマイケルジャクソン、ファイヤーショーと本場ラスベガスでなくて、このロイヤルハワイアンセンターで世界レベルの衝撃的エンターテイメントに感動しまくりでした。
1年前のショーよりもさらにパワーアップしたロックンロールとハワイアンを融合させた迫力と感動のパフォーマンスで全身を痺れさせてくれました。
ショー後のお見送り時には、出演者との写真撮影もあり、入り口から出口まで大満足のひと時を過ごせました。
妻などは、すっかり魅了され、又、来年もと意気込んでいます。
ロック・ア・フラは、舞台と一体になれるディナー&カクテル&ショーVIP席がお薦めです。

We had a great time. It was definitely a perfect opportunity to get away from it all. With that said it’s worth the cost! The dock was easy to find. They are the first booth as you enter the lot. Check in was easy at 1700 and sailed promptly at 530 pm. It was nice to unwind with a friendly crowd from all walks of life while “chasing” the sunset. The crew were super chill and attentive. The food was okay. That night they had tofu rolls, egg rolls, white rice, glazed chicken, and ginger beef with veggies buffet style/self serve. Then had chocolate chip cookie after served by crew member. The bar was rolling so I take it everyone was enjoying their drinks. The package came with one drink, it can be used towards juice or soft drink or with spirits. The part I enjoyed the most was having the moment to sit back, relaxing and enjoying the “waves”. But for the most part, I did enjoy socializing with other people on the cruise. That night was filled only with good vibes. We did the cruise on mid part of our stay here in Oahu and it couldn’t have been more perfect. We were busy running around “chasing” for the best of the best and the 2+ hr sail finally gave me the chance to “breathe” if you will. We had plenty’s of time to take pictures and a crew member was more than happy to assist as well. He gave us the heads up as far as what to expect and he was right on. No surprises on board! Just how I like it! You can sit in the enclosed area which I do not recommend if you get sea sick or you can stay standing, do your Kate and Leo’s pose, sit and relax by the nets. Ladies it does get windy so unless you also want to be Marilyn Monroe, wear shorts or pants! There’s a parking lot directly by the dock for $1/hr. It was a smooth sail (take it from me..I am one to guaranteed to get nauseous just from standing on the beach). There were no children on board. I didn’t travel with my children this time so I am not sure if that is stated on the description site..

The show was very good, but...
The buffet style lowered the rating.
The food was not that great.

It's very disappointing.

ショーはとても良かったが…
ビュッフェスタイルが評価を下げた。
たいした料理では無かった。


とても残念です。

First, we waited for the pickup, then we waited to go, and even after we arrived, we waited... It was so difficult to find something to eat that we could enjoy, as there were very few options. Since there were Japanese staff members, I had no worries about the language. The scenery and fireworks were beautiful. The return trip was also quite long...

まず、ピックアップからまち、行くまでも待ち、ついてからも待ち・・・
ご飯も食べれるものを探すのに苦労するくらい食べれるものが少ない。日本人スタッフがいるから言葉の心配はゼロ。景色、花火はきれいにみれた。帰りもまぁ、長かった・・・

I apologize for the late post, but I used the service in April. Since our arrival date was on a Friday, I signed up for my friend’s first trip to Hawaii to see the Hilton fireworks! My friend, who was worried about motion sickness, was very happy to enjoy the fireworks while feeling the pleasant breeze (a jacket is a must!). I usually watch from the beach, but seeing the fireworks from the water was exceptional. I would like to sign up again next time!

投稿が遅くなりましたが、4月に利用しました。到着日が金曜日だったので、ヒルトンの花火が観られる！とハワイ初の友達のために申し込みました。乗り物酔いが心配だった友達も、心地よい風を受けながらの花火鑑賞にとても喜んでくれました（上着は必須です！）。私もいつもはビーチからの鑑賞でしたが、海の上から見る花火は格別なものでした。次回も申し込みたいと思います！

The flair show you usually see is on a completely different level of intensity. It was disappointing to have a lot of waiting time after entering. I wish there had been a bit more time to enjoy the meal.

普段見るフラショーとは迫力が格段に違います。
入場してから、待ち時間が多かったのが残念です。もう少し食事を楽しむ時間があればいいなと思いました。

I really wanted to see an Elvis show while staying in Hawaii. I googled Elvis shows and this one had excellent ratings. We booked the Luau Buffet and show. When we got there we were taken to our seats. Everyone was really nice. They start everyone with a Mai Tai that was really good. We then started the buffet line. The food was great quality & really good. My husband & I enjoyed it very much. During dinner there was a little hula show. It was very fun to watch our server dancing! She was great! After dinner we were escorted to the theater. I was very surprised by the venue. It didn’t seem like it was very big from the outside but once we got in I was pleasantly surprised!! The show was absolutely amazing!! Each performer was outstanding. Every detail about the show was right on point; the band, the dancers, the choreography, the costumes, the singers and the impersonators!! I really enjoyed it! We loved that they also have a meet & greet after the show. I would recommend this show 100%!!

This was my first time, and my partner had participated about ten years ago. We arrived early but were allowed into the venue. First, we headed to the buffet area. It felt like the Japanese attendees were gathered at the back of the line.

The welcome drink, Mai Tai, could be chosen as alcoholic or non-alcoholic. It was pleasantly sweet and delicious. Next, the whole roasted pig was brought out, which really raised the excitement.

We lined up to get our food, but we had to wait quite a bit. It felt very American in that regard. In Japan, staff would guide you based on how quickly the line was moving, and you wouldn't have to wait in line holding heavy plates. But here in sunny Hawaii, you shouldn't sweat the small stuff.

The food included vegetable salad, macaroni salad, glass noodle salad, marinated tomatoes and salmon, teriyaki chicken, white fish curry, and the whole roasted pig, among a few other dishes. Everything was decent, but I particularly enjoyed the white fish curry.

As we continued eating, desserts were served: rainbow sherbet, chocolate cake, and cookies. There was also coffee and tea. I only had the chocolate cake, but I thought it was not too sweet for Hawaii and quite tasty. The coffee was Kona coffee, which I enjoyed with the cake.

During the meal, there was live ukulele music and singing. The staff, dressed in hula costumes, created a great atmosphere! There are plans with and without meals, but the difference is about $30. If you're purely considering the food, you might think the no-meal option is fine, but if you factor in the atmosphere and the excitement of the show, I think the meal option is better.

However, the dining area is under a tent. If it rains, it could really dampen the mood. Rain might come in from the sides, and it could be hard to hear the live performance. I've heard that Hawaii has been experiencing more rain lately due to weather changes, so it’s a matter of luck.

After the meal, we moved to the show venue.

At the entrance, there was the usual photo opportunity. You can purchase the photos on your way out, but we were in a hurry to find a restroom due to the alcohol, so we didn’t buy any. I’m not sure how much they cost.

We took a photo with an Elvis impersonator and then headed to our seats. The first floor was occupied by those who had the most expensive meal plan. We were seated on the second floor. The middle seats would have been ideal, but they seat you in the order you enter, so it’s a matter of luck. We ended up in the middle of the third row. There was a good step up, so we didn’t have to worry about the heads in front of us.

Finally, the show began. There were screens on both sides and at the back, and the performance started with hula dances and costumes from different eras, accompanied by old footage of Hawaii. It felt like there was a history to both Hawaii and hula! The music, costumes, and dances changed with the eras, revealing a history I was completely unaware of, which was a bit moving.

The show transitioned from the Elvis era to a mix of Elvis and hula, then to Michael Jackson. A female singer also appeared, and rather than an impersonator, she seemed to be a Hawaiian music singer. I was overwhelmed by her singing ability.

Since I’m not from the Elvis generation, I can’t say how similar she was. The same goes for Michael Jackson; I knew the songs, but I’m not sure about the impersonation. For those who know dance, the quality would be evident, but as an amateur, I enjoyed it. Both performances were well integrated with video footage of the original artists, creating a fantastic atmosphere.

I had given up on seeing fire dancing indoors, but there it was! Seeing fire live is truly impressive. The hula costumes changed frequently, and the singing was satisfying, making the time fly by.

Initially, I had heard it was an impersonation show, so I honestly didn’t have high expectations, but I got to learn about the history of hula, experienced a fusion with Elv

私は初めてで相方は10年ほど前に参加経験ありです。
集合時間より早くに着きましたが会場に入れました。まずはビュッフェ会場です。日本人は各々の後尾に集められた感あります。
ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイはアルコールとノンアルが選べます。程よい甘さで美味しかった。
次に豚の丸焼き登場でテンション上がります。
順番に並んでお料理を頂くのですが、結構並んで待ちました。そこはアメリカンな対応だなって。日本だったら進み具合を見ながらスタッフが誘導し、重い皿を持ったまま並ぶことにはならないでしょうね。でもここは常夏ハワイ。細かいことは気にしたらダメです。
お料理は野菜サラダ、マカロニサラダ、春雨サラダ、トマトとサーモンのマリネ、照り焼きチキン、白身のカレー風、豚の丸焼きとあと数品あったと思います。どれもまあまあですが、私は白身のカレームニエルが美味しかったです。
食事が進むとスウィーツが登場します。レインボーシャーベット、チョコケーキ、クッキーです。あとコーヒーと紅茶もありました。私はチョコケーキだけ食べましたが、ハワイの割にそんなに甘くなく美味しいと思いました。コーヒーもコナコーヒーでケーキと一緒に頂きました。
食事中ウクレレの生演奏と生歌。スタッフがフラの衣装で雰囲気は十分！
食事ありとナシのプランがありますがその差30ドルくらい。純粋に食事だけ考えるとナシでもいいかなって思えますが、雰囲気とショーへのテンションも考えるなら食事ありの方がいいと思いました。
ただ食事会場はテント下です。もしスコールがあったらテンションだだ落ちでしょう。横から雨が降り込んだり、生演奏が聞こえにくかったりしそう。最近のハワイは気象の変化で雨が多いらしいので、これは運でしょうね。
食後はショー会場へ移動します。

入り口でありがちな写真撮影です。帰りに購入することになるのでしょうけど、私たちはアルコールのおかげでトイレに急いでたので購入せずです。いくらかもわかりません。
プレスリーのそっくりさん(？)と写真を撮って客席に行きます。1階では一番お値段の上のコースの方たちが食事中でした。私たちは2階席です。真ん中の席が良いでしょうが、入った順番に座らせられるのでこれも運です。私たちはちょうど3列目の真ん中でした。しっかり段差があるので前の方の頭は気になりません。
いよいよショーです。
両サイドと正面奥にスクリーンがあり、昔のハワイの映像とともにその年代であろう衣装とフラのダンスが始まりました。
ハワイの歴史とフラにも歴史あり！って感じで年代によって音楽や衣装、ダンスにも変化がありました。全然知らなかった歴史が垣間見えて少し感動しました。
プレスリーの年代からプレスリーとフラのショーでマイケルジャクソンと移っていきます。女性シンガーも登場しますが、その方はモノマネというよりハワイアンミュージックのシンガーなのでしょう。歌唱力に圧倒されました。
プレスリー世代ではないので似てるかはわかりません。マイケルジャクソンも微妙ですが歌は知ってました。ダンスは見る人が見たらクオリティが分かるでしょうが、素人の私は楽しめる程度でした。どちらもスクリーンに本人の映像とコラボしてて雰囲気はバッチリでした。
室内なので諦めてたファイアダンスもありました。やっぱりファイアは生で見ると圧倒されます。
フラの衣装も次々変わっていき、歌も十分聴きごごたえありであっという間に終わってしまいました。

私ははじめモノマネショーと相方に聞いていたので正直期待してなかったのですが、フラの歴史に触れられて、プレスリーやマイケルとも融合し女性シンガーの歌にも圧倒され価値あるエンターテイメントだったと思います。
相方は10年前の記憶があるので昔はもっとマドンナとかもいてて、今回はクオリティが下がったと言ってました。
モノマネショーをメインで思うなら物足りないかもしれませんが、私はポリネシアンショーが好きなので大満足です。ぜひもう一度参加したいですし、お値段以上の価値はあったと思いました。おススメです！

I was very lucky to encounter a pod of dolphins! The tour guide was also very enthusiastic and made the experience enjoyable. I was truly happy in that wonderful atmosphere. Thank you very much! 😊

イルカの群れにも出逢えて
とてもラッキーでした！
添乗員さんもノリノリで楽しませて頂き
本当に幸せな空間で嬉しかったです。
ありがとございました(^^)

I showed my voucher at the booth as instructed, but was told it was the wrong place and that I needed to go to the Sheraton. When I went to the Sheraton, there was no reception area. When I returned, I saw the same person from earlier with the boat in the photo, so I asked again and was told to wait there. However, while I was left waiting, more and more people boarded the boat, and as they were about to close it, I asked again and was told to hurry up. During the tour, everything was lively in English, but the only time I heard Japanese was when they asked for tips at the end. It was the worst experience.

指示どうりのブースでバウチャー見せたのに、ここではない シェラトンの方だと、シェラトンの方に行きましたが受付らしきものはなく、また、戻って見ると先程の人と写真の船があったので、もう一度聞くと、その場で待つように言われたが、どんどん他の人間が乗船する中ほったらかし、締め切ろうとするので、もう一度聞くと早く乗れと ツアー中もすべて英語で盛り上がって、唯一下船時に『チップ下さい』の日本語 最悪〜

Great food, great service. The only thing I might add is to provide something to crack open the lobster

We participated as a couple, and it was really fun. This might be the best tour we've been on so far. The captain was lively and made it enjoyable, and there were young people from abroad, so we were able to take photos together, creating great memories.

夫婦で参加しました、とても楽しかったです
今まで行ったツアーで一番かな。キャプテンもノリノリで楽しかったです、外国の若者もいて一緒に写真も撮れていい思い出になりました。

I wanted to see some kind of show when I went to Hawaii, so I attended the Rock-a-Hula show, which also included a buffet. The location was easy to find on the fourth floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, and it was convenient for using the trolley afterward, which was reassuring. We ate at the buffet under the tent on the terrace before moving to the show venue. The meal started with a Mai Tai drink, and they asked whether we wanted it alcoholic or non-alcoholic. The staff guided each table in turn to the buffet. While we were eating, we could enjoy dancing and singing, which heightened the feeling of being in Hawaii. The show had free seating in the second-floor section. Video and flash photography were not allowed, but taking photos was okay. An Elvis impersonator came around, which was a bit challenging for everyone, but it was fun. The dancers changed costumes quickly and performed energetically. If you mainly want to see hula dancing, you might find it a bit different. However, as a show, the dancing was excellent, and I enjoyed it without getting bored until the end, which left me satisfied. After the show, they also took photos and signed autographs in the lobby, providing excellent service.

ハワイに行ったら何らかのショーをみたいと思っていたのでビュッフェもついているロック・ア・フラショーに行ってきました。場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンターの４階でわかりやすく、終わった後もトローリーなどの利用に便利な場所なので安心でした。テラスのテントでビュッフェで食べてからショーの会場へ移動します。食事は最初にマイタイのドリンクがでますが、アルコールかノンアルコールか聞いてくれます。係りの方がテーブルごとに順番にビュッフェ台に行くよう案内してくれます。食べいる間も踊りや歌がみられハワイに来た気分が高まりました。ショーは２階席で自由席。動画とフラッシュ使用はNGですが写真撮影はＯＫでした。エルビスのそっくりさんも全員には難しいですが、まわって来てくれました。ダンスは早着替えで踊りまくり。フラダンスをメインで観たい方はちょっと違うと思われるかもしれません。がショーとしてはダンスも上手で飽きる事無く最後まで楽しめて満足しました。ショーの後もロビーで写真やサインもしてくれてサービス満点です。

If you want a typical Hawaiian luau this show is not for you. But if you enjoy music going as far back as the 1930's then this show is highly recommended. Most of the music was done by Elvis and Michael Jackson. The performers were great. The fire dance was great but was very short/limited. The performance was done indoors in a theater with theater seating which was great but again if you want to experience an outdoor luau this show is not for you.

The location of the show is in the heart of Waikiki Beach on the 4th floor of a mall. We drove from Marriott Ko olina Resort which is about 20 miles away and took is about 45 minutes to get to the show. So if you are planning to come from the Ko olina/Aulani Resort area plan to drive for 45-60 minutes. There is ample parking to self-park. The parking is free for the 1st 3 hours with validation. After the show you can walk around in the area for shopping. The check in experience was great and was very fast. All the workers were very helpful and hard working. The food was simple, tasty and healthy, especially the curry fish.

overall my family and I enjoyed this show and would recommend it to others.

My family and I had a great experience and would recommend this show.

Last year, I participated with my daughter and had so much fun that this time I joined with a friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time. I signed her up as a surprise gift since she is a bit scared, but the fun was so overwhelming that she seemed to forget her fear and was really happy, asking to go to the front of the boat to take pictures. There were not many Japanese people, but the foreigners were lively, dancing and singing, which made it incredibly enjoyable. When we got off the boat, a wave came and soaked us up to our bottoms (^▽^;). I think it's better to have a towel. I would definitely like to participate again when I go to Hawaii.

昨年、娘と参加してとても楽しかったので今回はハワイ初の友人と参加させていただきました。少し怖がりの友人へサプライズプレゼントで申し込みしたのですが、あまりの楽しさに怖さもどこかへ行ってしまったのか自分から船の先頭へ行って写真撮って～と凄く喜んでいました。日本人は少ないですが、外人さん達がノリノリで踊ったり、歌ったりですっごく楽しかったです。
船から降りる時に波がきてお尻まで濡れてしまいました(^▽^;)タオルはあった方が良いと思います。またハワイへ行った際は是非参加したいです。

We participated for the first time as a family of three generations: parents, a couple, and children. Although we had reserved Golden Circle seats, it seems we were shown to regular seats. When it was time to eat, we were kept waiting, which made us anxious, so we asked, and it turned out we were not in the Golden Circle seats (the ray was cast over everyone).

In a hurry, we were finally guided to the actual Golden Circle seats, but the buffet had a long line. In the end, we ended up getting our food last, which was very disappointing. It seemed that we were supposed to receive select drink tickets at the beginning, but we were not given those tickets, so our drink orders were also delayed.

I had high hopes for this commemorative trip with my parents, but our enjoyment was halved. The show itself was entirely in English, but we were able to enjoy the atmosphere.

両親、夫婦、子供３世代で初めて参加しました。ゴールデンサークルを予約していたものの、案内されたのは普通の席だったようです。
食事を取る時に、待たされての案内だったので、不安になって聞いてみると、ゴールデンサークルの席ではないとの事。（レイは全員にかけられました。）
慌てて本来のゴールデンサークル席に案内されたものの、ビュッフェは長蛇の列。結局最後の方に食事を取るような形で大変残念でした。
セレクトドリンクのチケットも最初にもらえるようでしたが、そのチケットも渡されていなかったので、ドリンクオーダーも遅くなりました。
両親を連れての記念旅行だったので期待していましたが、楽しみは半減しまた。ショー自体は全て英語でしたが、雰囲気は楽しめました。

This was a last minute thing that we decided to do - and we're sure glad that we did.
Was a great night with good food and good entertainment to follow. Rose was our server and what a fantastic job she did, she had a number of tables to look after (as servers do over there) yet she gave intimate tables of two just as much as large group tables.
Overall a well run experience from pickup to drop off couldn't fault it at all

This time, I used the Terrace Luau Buffet & Show. After arriving, I had the buffet on the terrace of the Hawaiian Center. There were about 10 dishes, including roast beef, huli huli chicken, and whole roasted pig, which left me completely full. Additionally, during the meal, I was able to enjoy ukulele performances and dance close to my seat. After that, we moved to the show venue, and we had seats right in the middle of the second floor! It was very easy to see. The show included rock music, hula, and fire dancing, and I was able to enjoy it all the way to the end without getting bored. I was moved by the performances of Michael Jackson and Elvis. Being able to see authentic hula made for a wonderful memory!

今回、テラスルアウビュッフェ&ショーを利用しました。到着後、ハワイアンセンター屋上のテラスでビュッフェを食べました。料理の品目は10品ほど、ローストビーフやフリフリチキン、豚の丸焼きなどもあり、充分お腹いっぱいになりました。また、食事中も席の近くでウクレレと演奏とダンスを楽しむことができました。その後、ショーの会場へ移動したのですが、2階席のど真ん中！とても見やすい席でした。ショーの内容は、ロック有り、フラ有り、ファイヤーダンス有りでまったく飽きないまま、最後まで楽しむことができました。マイケルジャクソンやエルビスのパフォーマンスには感動。本場のフラを見ることもでき、とても良い思い出になりました！

Entertainment was great. There was always something going on if you don't be careful you will miss the sunrise. I was beautiful.

By booking this tour, even if you're not a VIP, you can see from the front row on the second floor, which was great! ✨ However, if you want to be in the front row, be careful to line up early after finishing your meal. ⚠

このツアーから予約すると、VIPじゃなくても、2階の最前列で見れるのでよく見れました✨ただ、最前列に行きたければ食事を済ませたら、早く並ばないといけないので注意⚠

I stayed in Hawaii for a wedding this time. I booked this sunset cruise as an optional tour that my parents and relatives could enjoy together! As expected, everyone from my elderly parents to my cousins in their 20s had a great time. The drinks were all-you-can-drink, and the cheerful crew created a fun atmosphere, making the cruising experience fly by. The last time I came to Hawaii, I participated in the daytime cruise, but I personally recommend the sunset cruise because it’s not too hot, and the sea breeze feels nice! If you go to Hawaii, definitely consider joining this. It should be enjoyable for people of all ages and genders.

今回ウェディングのためにハワイに滞在しました。両親、親戚も一緒に楽しめるオプショナルツアーとしてこちらのサンセットクルーズを予約しました！期待通り高齢の両親から20代のいとこまで全員楽しむ事が出来ました。ドリンクは飲み放題で明るいクルー達が盛り上げてくれ楽しい雰囲気であっという間のクルージングです。前回ハワイに来たときは日中の本クルーズに参加しましたがサンセットクルーズのほうが暑すぎず海風が気持ち良くて個人的におすすめです！！ハワイに行かれる際は是非ご参加してみてください。年齢、性別問わずお楽しみいただけるはずです。

It was my first time going on a dinner cruise and it was everything i hoped it would be. The weather was nice and the view was beautiful. I was with my family that came to visit and they enjoyed it too. The food and customer service was good. I would bring back my family and friends here again.

We went for my daughter's graduation, we had a great time. The food was ok, but the performances and audience involvement made up for it. My kids really enjoyed it! The sunset was amazing!!! This is a must do activity.

I particularly enjoyed the unique views of Waikiki that we got on the catamaran. The breeze was nice and the beautiful sunset made it all the more special. I would love to do this again!

The dinner cruise was fun and a very enjoyable one. Our relatives from Philippines whom we treated with the cruise were really surprised and they’re so grateful. It was perfect and worthy experience for all of us.

My tour of the Big Island was canceled at the last minute due to the volcanic eruption, so since I was already in Hawaii, I quickly booked a sunset cruise. Thanks to arriving early, I was able to get a nice window seat and was among the first in line for the buffet, which made me happy. The experience wasn't perfect because there was a Chinese family whose kids were climbing on the sofa with their shoes on, throwing cushions, and running around, making a lot of noise. It really ruined the atmosphere.

ハワイ島観光が噴火の影響で直前キャンセルになり、すでにハワイにいたので急遽サンセットクルーズを申し込みました。
早めに現地に着いたおかげで窓側のいい席をとれてブッフェも最初に並ぶことができて満足です。
満点にならなかったのは中国のファミリーがいて子供達が土足でソファにあがったり、クッション投げをしたり、バタバタ走り回っていてうるさかったです。せっかくのムードが台無し。

I was worried about seasickness, so I participated without alcohol. There were many people besides Japanese, and the atmosphere on the boat was lively. We were blessed with good weather, and it was a wonderful sunset time. I would like to join this tour again when I go to Hawaii.

船酔いが心配だったので、ノンアルコールで参加しました。
日本人以外もたくさんいて、船上はにぎやかでした。
お天気にも恵まれ、素敵なサンセットタイムでした。
またハワイに行った際は、参加したいツアーです。

A family of 11, including adults and infants, participated. They enjoyed a fun time while eating at the buffet, and eventually, as sunset approached, everyone was satisfied.

大人、乳幼児11人のファミリー参加しました。
ビュッフェを食べながら楽しく過ごし、やがてサンセットの時間になりみんな満足していました。

I arrived at the venue at 6:30 and was first guided to the buffet. I sat at a long table and waited for my turn to go to the food table. I could choose from about ten different dishes, including green salad, macaroni salad, sautéed sweet potatoes, curry-cooked white fish, and chicken. The photo shows all the dishes I took a little bit of on two plates. The roast beef and pork were really delicious.

At 7:30, the show began. It was incredibly fun. There were performances featuring nostalgic songs from Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley, along with hula dancing. Michael Jackson's performance was particularly impressive; his moonwalk was very skillful and moving. The hula and Tahitian dance segments were short but very authentic and enjoyable to watch. I was seated near the center, which was a great spot, allowing me to enjoy the show even more.

I’m really glad I got to see this show.

6:30に会場に到着してから、まずはビュッフェへ案内されました。長いテーブルに座って順番がくるまで待ち、料理のあるテーブルへ。グリーンサラダ、マカロニサラダ、さつまいものソテー、白身魚のカレー煮、チキンなど10種類くらいから選びます。写真は二枚の皿に全ての料理を少しずつ持ってきたものです。ローストビーフとポークは本当に美味しかったです。
7：30からはショーへ。これはとてもとても楽しかったです。懐かしのマイケル・ジャクソンやエルヴィス・プレスリーの歌とフラダンスのショー。特にマイケル・ジャクソンは圧巻で、ムーンウォークはとても上手で感動的でした。フラダンスとタヒチアンダンスの部分も、短かったですが、とても本格的で見ごたえがありました。席は優先的にセンター付近に案内してくれました。本当にど真ん中のとても良い席で、ますますショーを楽しむことができました。
今回このショーを見れて本当に良かったです。

We went along to this night not knowing a lot about the performance, other than it was in a very convenient location for us and that it was a very reasonable price. We left being blown away by the sheer professionalism, talent and wow factor of the performers and entire evening.

The pre show dinner was tasty and filling, the service friendly & prompt.

The show was in a lovely theatre with exceptional stage and lighting setup and from the moment the show started our eyes were glued to the stage.

The singers and dancers never missed a beat or note, the lighting was beautiful and the music fun and fabulous. We enjoyed the range of pop performers throughout the eras with Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators as stand out performers! Even at the meet and greet afterwards Michael was perfectly in character - when I asked him how long his show makeup took he replied in a wonderfully accurate voice "makeup? What makeup??"

The fire dancer was also phenomenal with even bar staff remarking that they tried to align their breaks with his performance to go watch from the back of the theatre! Who needs to go to an overpriced louwow when you've got wonderful traditional hula dancers and performers right here.

5 stars - all round a phenomenal night and a "must see" for all visitors!
