All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

Last time, we enjoyed the sunset on the same boat during the "Sunset Sailing," but this time we experienced the "Full Sun Sailing." This is Hawaii! This is Waikiki! We thoroughly enjoyed it on board. It was just right for the silver couple.

前回は同じ船で「夕陽セーリング」でサンセットを楽しみましたが、今回は「太陽がいっぱいセーリング」、これぞハワイ！これぞワイキキ！を船上で満喫しました。シルバーカップルには程よかったです。

With a variety of shows including hula dance, fire dance, Michael Jackson, and Elvis Presley, I thought this price was a great deal, especially with the large buffet included. You can also take photos as long as you don't use flash.

フラダンス、ファイアーダンス、マイケルジャクソン、エルビスプレスリーと盛りだくさんのショーに加えて、大ボリュームのビュッフェがついてこのお値段なら安いと思いました。また写真もフラッシュをたかなければ撮影出来ます。

This was a GREAT sunset cruise - food was good, drinks were good (and they did not even make you give in your drink tickets so not trying to get more out of you) and the show was good.

Just one thing to improve upon:
1. Seating took way too long. You know who is coming so you should have assigned seating and it should be really quick - not making people stand in stairwell for 20 minutes just to get seated

The captain and crew were great. Everyone on the boat had a great time. Bring a small cooler with your favorite beverages, sit back and relax. It was a fun time. Will definitely do it again. It's only a two hour or so trip but we'll worth the money.

I was supposed to be picked up at the hotel, but since no car arrived at all, I called customer service. They said they left because they couldn't meet me at the designated spot. I was told to take a taxi, but I was informed that it was too late and asked if I could change the date instead. I was at a loss for words due to their attitude, especially since I was looking forward to the fireworks.

It's puzzling why we couldn't meet at the designated spot, which was just the hotel parking area and not that large. The hotel staff had also told me that it was fine to wait on this bench, so I wasn't late for the meeting time.

I was able to change the date and board the boat the next day. The scenery and the food were both very good.

ホテルにピックアップに来てくれるはずが、全然車が来ないのでカスタマーサービスに電話したら、待ち合わせ場所で会えなかったから行ってしまったとのこと。タクシーで来てください、あーでももう時間が間に合わないですね、日にち変更できますけど？と素っ気なく言われました。花火を楽しみにしていたのに、向こうの対応に言葉が出ませんでした。
待ち合わせ場所はホテルの駐車スペースでそんなに広い場所でもないのに、なぜ会えなかったのか不思議でたまりません。ホテルのスタッフにも、このベンチで待っていればいいよと言われたので、こちらが待ち合わせの時間に遅れたわけでもありません。
翌日に変更してもらって船に乗ることはできました。景色も料理もとてもよかったです。

This Booze Cruise is the best value and highlight of our Waikiki trip. Strong drinks, great waves, fun music, what's not to love? Can't wait to do it again!

I ended up lining up at the wrong meeting point for a different catamaran and was shocked when they told me just before boarding, "Your voucher is wrong! You're supposed to be at a different place!" I dashed barefoot across the sandy beach and just made it in time (laughs). The sunset was amazing, and there were few Japanese people on board, no children, so I was able to enjoy an adult atmosphere.

It was a bit nerve-wracking, but I definitely recommend the catamaran over the cruise!

違うカタマランの集合場所に並んでしまい、乗船ギリギリに「バウチャーが違う！私達が乗るのは違う場所だ！」と言われビックリしました。砂浜を裸足でダッシュして何とかセーフ(笑)夕日が素晴らしく、船内も日本人は少く、子供も居ず、大人の世界で楽しめました。
ハラハラしたけどクルーズより絶対にカタマランをオススメします！

Me and my 3 friends had such a great time with the Manu Kai Cruise. The crew was so nice, funny, and knowledgeable, and we got up close and personal with spinner dolphins. They were even very caring and helpful when one of us got a bit seasick. 100% recommend.

The show was very enjoyable! The food was normally delicious, but the time to eat was short, and I ended up leaving a lot. It would have been nice to have a bit more space and time to enjoy the meal.

ショーはとても楽しめました^_^
ご飯は普通に美味しかったのですが、ご飯を食べる時間が短くてたくさん残してしまいました。もう少しゆったりしたスペースで時間をかけて食べれたら良かったかな。

I retired after about an hour due to lack of stamina, but it felt great to ride the waves with Diamond Head in the background, surrounded by the blue sea and sky. I was a bit worried because it said "English-speaking instructor," but they were fluent in Japanese, so I was able to participate with peace of mind. The paddling was tough, so I want to build up my stamina and try again.

体力不足で1時間ほどでリタイアしていまいましたが、青い海青い空の中ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに波に乗れて気持ちよかったです。
English Speaking インストラクターと書かれていて少し不安でしたが、日本語ペラペラで安心して参加できました。パドリングがキツかったので体力つけてまたリベンジしたいです。

I experienced sunset sailing for the first time this time! The staff were very friendly and had great energy. It seemed there was someone celebrating a birthday among the other guests, and we all sang Happy Birthday to celebrate! As sunset approached, we stopped the boat and waited for the sun to set while enjoying drinks. Watching the sunset over the ocean while feeling the Hawaiian breeze was truly wonderful and moving. I would love to participate again when I visit Hawaii!

今回初めてサンセットセーリングを体験しました！
スタッフの方もとても親切でノリが良く、他のお客様の中に誕生日の方がいらっしゃったようで、みんなでハッピーバースデーを歌ってお祝いしました！
サンセットの時間が近づくと、船を停め、日が沈むのをお酒を飲みながら待ちました。ほろ酔いでハワイの風を感じながら海の上でみるサンセットはとても素敵で感動しました★
またハワイに訪れた際には参加したいです！

This is my seventh time in Hawaii. Although I had tried to challenge myself several times in the past, the timing never worked out, and this time I finally got to do it!

On the first day after arriving in Hawaii, I took an evening lesson to combat jet lag, and the weather and waves were perfect, allowing me to stand up from the very first try. The two hours flew by, and it was so much fun that I booked another lesson for the day before my return.

However, the second time was on a day with strong winds, which made it a bit challenging. For beginners, it might be better to avoid days with strong winds for easier riding.

ハワイは7回目です。過去に何度かチャレンジしようと思いつつも、タイミングが合わず、今回やっと挑戦できました！
ハワイに到着した初日の時差ボケ対策で夕方のレッスンを受けましたが、天気も波も最高で、1回目から立つことができました。2時間があっという間に過ぎ去り、帰国前日にも再び予約するほど楽しかったです。
ただ2回目は風が強い日でしたので、少し大変でした。初めての方は風が強い日は避けたほうが乗りやすいかもしれません。

The Star of Honolulu sunset cruise, was awesome! My husband surprised me with the dinner cruise to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Once on board, we met and had a picture taken with the Captain. We visited with some of the staff, they were fascinated that we were American Indians. Once the cruise set off, appetizers were served and it was the beginning of the amazing 7 course dinner. Each course was better than the previous dish served. The serving staff were fantastic, took care of any needs or questions we had. The entertainment was extraordinary, from the piano player, Hawaiian dancers to the beautiful singer at the end. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something very special for any occasion.

We boarded the boat from the beach and set off!! Be careful of the waves, or you might get wet up to your knees. Inside the boat, it's barefoot. Flip-flops are recommended!
Most of the participants were foreigners, and the crew was also foreign. They kept the atmosphere lively in English, so as someone who's not great at English, I just enjoyed the vibe!
As for drinks, my English was a bit shaky, so I kept ordering Mai Tais.
The fireworks lasted about 10 to 15 minutes! After that, we cruised the night sea. The neon lights of Waikiki were really beautiful!

浜辺からボートに乗り込み、出発！！波に注意して乗り込まないとヒザ上まで濡れるかも。ボートの中では裸足。ビーサンがおすすめ！
参加メンバーはほとんど外人で、クルーも外人さん。英語で盛り上げてくれるので、英語が苦手な私は雰囲気だけ味わいました！
ドリンクも、英語がビミョーなのでマイタイばかりおかわりしてました。
花火は10～15分くらいでした！あとは夜の海をクルーズ。ワイキキのネオンがとてもキレイでした！

We were the only Japanese family there. Everyone else was a foreigner, and since I couldn't speak English, I didn't understand what they were saying, but I just went along with the flow. Sitting near the net at the front of the boat, I got splashed with water, and it was fun.

日本人は私達家族だけでした。
みんな外国人で英語が出来ない私は何を言ってるか分からずでしたが、ノリでついていきました。
船の先のネット近くで座ってると水しぶきがかかって、楽しかったです。

I was really looking forward to my first sunset sailing, but unfortunately, the weather was bad, and I couldn't see the sunset painted in bright red. However, I was glad to catch a glimpse of the orange sun peeking through the clouds. I recommend wearing easy-to-remove shoes since your feet will get wet when boarding. On the boat, you are first served a Mai Tai, and after that, you can order various alcoholic drinks at your leisure. The staff were cheerful and very kind, and there was a performance, making for a fun time. There is no restroom on board, but it seems quite narrow; however, I think it's still manageable. I would definitely consider doing this again next time.

初めてのサンセットセ―リング、すごく楽しみにしていましたがお天気が悪かったため、真っ赤に染まる夕日は見ることが出来ませんでした。しかし、ほんの少し、雲の切れ間から太陽のオレンジ色を見ることが出来て良かったです。乗船するときに足が濡れるため、脱ぎやすい靴がいいと思います。船上では、最初にマイタイを配ってもらえますが、その後は好きなタイミングでいろんなアルコールをオーダーできます。スタッフの皆さんは陽気でとても優しく、パフォーマンスもあり楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
トイレは入っていませんが、かなり狭いようですが入れないことはないと思います。また、次回もお願いすると思います。

From the moment that we first interacted with staff at the shuttle bus pick-up, the whole package was seamless. Staff made the bus ride and boarding so easy that we just had to be swept along and enjoy the experience. The management on the boat was also superb, but kept personal. The Friday night fireworks just completed a beautiful night.

Compared to the dolphin tour, I didn't see as many whales as I expected, only catching a glimpse of them when they surfaced for air. I would like to go see them again.

イルカのツアーに比べて、息継ぎで浮上してくる一瞬のみで思ったより鯨が見えなかった。また、見に行きたい。

Our group was running a few minutes behind and they were nice enough to wait an extra ten minutes for us. The combination of snorkeling, some drinks, and a cruise around the bay was a great time for a group of 6 friends.

I had never properly seen the Hilton fireworks before, especially from the ocean. It was truly wonderful. The night view of Waikiki also became a fantastic memory.

今までヒルトンの花火をまともに見たことがなく、しかも洋上から。ホントに素敵でした。
またワイキキの夜景も最高の思い出になりました。

I was excited to see what kind of big fish I could encounter on my first submarine ride, but unfortunately, I didn't see the large fish I was hoping for. However, I was glad to see what the ocean floor looks like with my own eyes.

生まれて初めての潜水艦に乗船でどんな大きな魚が見れるのか期待をしていたのですが運が悪いのか自分が思ってた大きな魚が見れなかったのが残念でした。でも、海の底がどの様になっているのか見たかったので自分の目で見れた事は良かったです。

It was quite an exciting experience that is not something you can do every day. There were Japanese guides and crew members who spoke Japanese, making it a tour that was understandable even for those who don't speak English.

In my case, there was a temporary interruption due to a malfunction in the submarine's air purifier, but thanks to the courteous support from the staff at Veltra and the local team, I was able to reschedule and continue the experience.

I had a great time. Thank you!

体験事態もなかなかできることじゃないので、わくわくさせてもらいました。そして日本語の案内や、日本語が話せる乗務員さんがいらっしゃって、英語がわからなくても理解できるツアーでした。
自分の場合途中、潜水艦の空気清浄機が故障し、一時中断はしましたが、ベルトラさんや現地の方々の丁寧な対応により、時間変更という形でやり直させていただきました。
とても楽しかったです。ありがとうございます。

The day after our wedding in Hawaii, we took both families, including our parents and grandmothers, to see some activities! We were satisfied with the food, and the main show was enjoyable for both our student cousins and grandmothers. It had a strong element of impersonation and was of high quality.

ハワイ婚で結婚式の次の日のアクティビティとして、両家の親とおばあちゃんいとこたちを連れて見に行きました！
ご飯も満足できましたし、肝心なショーは学生のいとこもおばあちゃんも楽しめる内容でした。ものまねショーの要素が強くクオリティ高かったです。

Although the sunset sailing was delayed a bit due to some circumstances (high tide?), we ended up watching from the beach, which was disappointing. However, since it was a Friday sailing, the fireworks off the Hilton matched perfectly with the night view and were absolutely amazing! Also, the captain's entertaining performance while we enjoyed our drinks was great!

サンセットセーリングなのに、何かの都合（満潮？）で出航が少し遅れて、結局ビーチから眺める羽目になってしまいその点は残念でしたが、金曜のセーリングだったので、ヒルトン沖の花火も目の前で夜景とマッチして最高でした！また、アルコールを飲みながら聞くキャプテンの盛り上げ演出がグッドでした！

My husband and I had a great time snorkeling and saw lots of turtles up close. While sailing we even got to see dolphins playing around the boat. The staff was very professional, helpful and fun...highly recommend this activity!

I had a vague image of it and didn't have high expectations, but experiencing it in reality was truly moving. Riding in a submarine was also a valuable experience, and above all, I was able to experience the clear blue seabed as if I were diving myself. I'm glad I participated. You can also see sea turtles!

何となくイメージも出来るし、そこまで期待していませんでしたが、
実際に体験すると感動モノでした。
潜水艦に乗る経験も価値あるものでしたし、何よりも青く澄んだ海底を
まるで自分が潜っているみたいに体験でき、参加してよかったです。
ウミガメも見れますよ！！

Before departure, there was quite a heavy rain and rough seas, so I thought it might be canceled. However, against the backdrop of whitecaps, we set sail. Since it was a catamaran, I felt there was less rocking. When the weather is bad, it can get very cold on the boat, so it's good to have something to wear. Also, because of the all-you-can-drink option, if you get carried away and drink too much, you'll find yourself needing the restroom more often. There is indeed a type of restroom located on the left side of the bow that you enter from below. However, you have to go down a ladder of about 1 meter (and it's quite cramped inside), so those with mobility issues or elderly individuals should be extra careful.

出港する前まではかなり大雨と時化でしたので、中止になるのかな～と思って待っていたら、白波が立つ中なんと出港しました。双胴船なので揺れは少なかったように思います。天気が悪いと船上はとても寒いので羽織るものがあると良いです。また、飲み放題のため調子に乗って飲み過ぎるとトイレが近くなってきますが、なんと舳先の左側の方に下に入るタイプのトイレがあります。しかし、梯子で１mちょっと降りないと行けない（しかも中はかなり狭い）ので足が悪い方やお年寄りの方は更に気を付けて下さい。

I read the reviews on the site and decided to try the 50-minute Lomi Lomi course. It was reassuring to be able to communicate my requests in Japanese. My back and legs, which were feeling tight, felt much better! If I could have stayed a little longer, I would have considered going for a second time. I also climbed Diamond Head.

サイトの口コミを見てロミロミコース50分をうけました。
日本語で要望を伝えられるのは安心でした。
背中、足取りパンパンだったのもスッキリ！
もう少し滞在できたら2度目もと思いました。
ダイヤモンドヘッド登りましたよ。

On the day of the event, it was a bit disappointing that the luau was held indoors due to the weather, but I was greeted with a lei at the entrance and chose a Mai Tai. There were many types of food available to fill up before the show, and I was quite satisfied. The show included audience participation events, creating a friendly atmosphere. The singing and hula were fantastic, and the fire dance brought everything to a climax. It was an incredibly enjoyable evening.

当日は天候の影響で室内でのルアウとなり少し残念でしたが
入り口でレイを掛けていただき、マイタイをチョイス。
ショーの前の腹ごなしも多くの種類が並び満腹になりました。
ショーでは客席参加型のイベントもあり和やかな雰囲気でした。
歌、フラも最高、ファイヤーダンスで最高潮となり
とても楽しく過ごせた夕べでした。

I was able to participate from Japan without any worries, thanks to the kind answers to my questions during the reservation process. The atmosphere was even better than I imagined, the drinks were very delicious, and they served plenty. Both of the captains were cool, which added to the charm of the sunset cruising. I am still reminiscing about the experience since returning home. Thank you very much. I will definitely make a reservation next time.

予約の際も質問に親切にお答え頂きまして何の不安もなく日本から楽しみに参加させていただきました。想像以上にムードも良く、ドリンクがとても美味しく、沢山振舞って下さいました。お二人のキャプテンさんもカッコよく、更にサンセットクルージングの魅力が増しました。帰国してからも思い出に浸っております。ありがとうございました。次回も必ず予約します。
