All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

I wanted to ride the Star of Honolulu, but after seeing reviews about the buffet being overcrowded, I chose this one instead. It was a good decision as we were shown to our reserved seats and it wasn't cramped at all!

The Atlantis is three stories tall. There was a photo opportunity before the cruise, and you can purchase the photos later. (You can choose between just photos or photos & data, and I recommend the photos & data option. You can check the data via email right away.)

I made a reservation for the dinner buffet instead of just appetizers. We were seated on the second floor, which is recommended because there are hula shows and live performances. Plus, our seats were close to the show! I was able to dance with the dancers, which made for a great memory.

Although the selection of the buffet was limited, I still ended up quite full. Additionally, each table has a designated server, so you can order drinks from them, but the drinks do take a little while to arrive. When ordering drinks, you have to leave your credit card with them until the check is settled, which was a bit nerve-wracking... I think there might have been other options, but I can't remember. Fortunately, nothing went wrong.

Before the fireworks, we went out to the deck to watch, and after the fireworks, we returned to the second floor for a finale interactive dance show with the staff.

In the end, everyone got excited, and it was a lot of fun! It became a wonderful memory!

スターオブホノルルに乗りたかったのですが、ビュッフェ形式のランクものは、ギュウギュウに詰め込まれるという口コミを見て、こちらにしました。
予約席に通してもらえ、ギュウギュウ詰めにもならず、正解でした！

アトランティスは3階建て。
クルーズ前に写真撮影があり、後から購入できます。
（写真のみと写真&データ購入が選べるので、写真&データがオススメ。メールでデータがすぐに確認できます。）

アペタイザーではなく、ディナービュッフェで予約。
通されたのは2階席でした。
2階席は、フラショーや生演奏があるのでオススメです。しかも、ショーに近い席でした！
ダンサーさんと一緒に踊ることができ、いい思い出となりました。

ビュッフェの数は少ないですが、けっこうお腹いっぱいになります。
また、テーブルごとに担当者がつくので、ドリンクはその方に頼めばいいのですが、ドリンクが出てくるのは若干遅いです。
ドリンクを注文する時は、クレジットカードを最初からチェックするまでずっと預けるのですが、これが少し怖かったです…他にも方法があったと思うのですが、覚えておりません。
一応、何事もなかったです。

花火の前にはデッキへ出て鑑賞し、花火鑑賞後に、また2階席に戻ると、スタッフの方々とフィナーレの参加型ダンスショーがありました。

最後はみんなで盛り上がって、とても楽しかったです！いい思い出になりました！

It took about 20 minutes by boat to reach the submarine, and we enjoyed the journey as well ^ - ^

It's not often that you get to experience being on a submarine, and I participated with seven friends, filled with excitement. The best part was that we were lucky enough to see a sea turtle! ♡

The staff's service was also very good, and I was very satisfied!!

沖まで20分くらいかけて船で、潜水艦の所まで行く道中も楽しめました^ - ^

潜水艦なんて中々乗る経験が出来ないのと、ワクワク感いっぱいで友達7人で参加させていただきましたが運が良い事にウミガメが観れた事が一番嬉しかったです♡

スタッフさんの対応もとても良く満足でした！！

This time, I used it with a friend. When I experienced it before, there wasn't much shaking, but this time it was intense... The other passengers were excited, but my friend got seasick and seemed to have a terrible time... It really depends on the weather and sea conditions on the day, so I think those who are prone to seasickness should consider it carefully. I enjoyed it! The sunset viewed from the sea was beautiful. The staff's response was good, and I would like to use it again.

今回は友人と利用しました。
以前私が体験したときは、そんなに揺れもなかったのですが、今回は揺れが凄まじく・・・
同乗の方々はテンションが上がっていましたが、友人は船酔いしてしまい、まったく楽しめなかったようです・・・
当日の天候や海の状況次第なのでなんとも言えませんが、船酔いしやすい方はよく検討した方がよろしいかと思います。
私は楽しめました！海上から見るサンセットは素敵でした。
スタッフの対応もよく、また利用したいです。

It was truly American entertainment. Absolutely professional!! I enjoyed it thoroughly even from the second floor. I will come again next year. Mahalo!

アメリカンエンターテーメントそのものでした。まさにプロフェッショナル！！
二階席でもじゅうにぶんに楽しめました。また来年も来ます。マハロ！

My clients had nothing but good things to say about this experience!

I was quite anxious about participating alone as a woman and my limited English skills, but surfing in Hawaii was something I had wanted to do for three years, so I decided to go for it!

To my surprise, I heard a lot of Japanese being spoken here and there! There were people who chatted with me and created a fun atmosphere, and the person in charge, who was American, also used some broken Japanese like "more forward." Thanks to their support, I was able to stand on the board from my very first try! It was so much fun that I decided to start surfing back in Japan too!

英語もつたなく、女性の1人参加ということで不安は多々ありましたが、ハワイでサーフィンするのは3年越しのやりたかったことだったので思い切って参加してみました！

すると、割とあちらこちらで日本語が飛び交ってる…！色々喋りかけてくれて、楽しい雰囲気にしてくれる人や、担当してくれた方もアメリカの方でしたが「もっと前」などカタコトの日本語も駆使してくれましたよ^^
その方のサポートもあり、1回目からボードに立つことができました！！
すごく楽しかったので、日本でもサーフィン始めようと思いました☆

I usually don't go for esthetic treatments or massages, but since it was a special trip, I decided to give it a try. I chose the 80-minute course, and I received a thorough massage for the full 80 minutes! During the treatment, they were very considerate, asking if I was feeling cold and checking on me in various ways, which made me feel very refreshed. Thank you!

普段はあまりエステやマッサージ はいかないのですが、せっかくの旅行なので利用してみました。
80分コースを選択しましたが、80分みっちりマッサージして頂けました！
施術中も寒くないか？などいろいろ気遣っていただき、とてもリフレッシュできました。
ありがとうございました！

I didn't know I could get seasick, but these guys came ready with meds and drinks. Super informative and care for your well being. My girlfriend had a blast and she was so excited to see turtles peeking out the waters. Awesome experience and thanks!

You can start hula dancing and enjoy dances from Polynesia and other regions. Randomly selected participants can challenge themselves on stage with conch shell blowing and dancing. The finale was an impressive fire dance. The MC's lively talk and jokes had everyone laughing, but it was a shame that I couldn't quite understand the English.

フラダンスを始め、ポリネシアなどの舞踊が楽しめます。
参加者からランダムで選ばれた人はステージで、ホラ貝吹きやダンスに挑戦できます。
最後は迫力満点のファイヤーダンスで締めでした。
MCの方の軽快なトークとジョーク的ななにかで周りが笑っていたのですが、
英語が今ひとつわからなかったのが残念でした。

Choosing this tour was the right decision. Thanks to the bright and friendly crew, I made wonderful memories in a short time. There were nearly 30 passengers, many of whom were foreigners, and everyone sat in their preferred spots enjoying the cruise. The "Mai Tai" drinks were all-you-can-drink (my husband, who can't handle alcohol, had soft drinks) along with snacks, and the music playing from the boat added to the fun. At the end of the cruise, we were able to enjoy a truly beautiful sunset, which left us very satisfied.

このツアーを選んで正解でした。明るく親切なクルーのおかげで、短い時間でしたが、とても楽しい思い出ができました。乗客は外国人も多く、３０人近くいましたが、皆思い思いの場所に座り、クルーズを楽んでいました。船の名前の「マイタイ」ドリンクが飲み放題（お酒に弱い主人はソフトドリンク）とスナック付き、船から流れる音楽に盛り上がりました。クルーズの最後は、本当に綺麗なサンセットを眺めることができ、大満足でした。

The appeal of sailing is to enjoy the refreshing feeling of being in nature, with the sounds of the wind and waves. However, my experience was ruined by being surrounded by a loud group with booming music and party-like shouting. Next time, I will look for a small, private sailing tour.

セーリングの良さは、風の音、波の音など自然の中での爽快感を味わいたかったのですが、大音量の音楽と、パーティーのような大声での大騒ぎのグループに囲まれて、せっかくのセーリングが台無しでした。今度は少人数、貸し切りでのセーリングツアーを探します。

We were the only Japanese people, but the local staff were friendly and made us feel comfortable by saying words they knew in Japanese, like "yoroshiku" and "okonomiyaki"!

日本人は私達だけでしたが、現地スタッフの方が「よろしく」とか「お好み焼き」など、知ってる日本の単語を言いながら、フレンドリーに接してくれ、居心地も良かったです！

I participated in the Friday fireworks cruise. This trip was the first time our entire family went to Hawaii together. I wanted to create memorable experiences, so I signed up. Last year, I tried to book about two weeks in advance, but it was already fully booked, so this time I made a reservation six months ahead. The Mai Tai Catamaran is large, providing excellent stability. The fireworks viewed from the sea were beautifully reflected in the water. After the fireworks ended, the sky turned completely dark, and the starlit sky was amazing! I was moved to see the Southern Cross from the boat. It was a fun cruise that allowed us to experience a bit of star navigation.

金曜の花火クルーズに参加。今回の旅は初の家族全員でハワイ。思い出になることがしたいと思って申し込みました。去年は申し込みが2週間ほど前でもういっぱいだったので、今回は半年前から予約を入れました。マイタイカタマランは大きいので、安定感バツグン。沖から見る花火は海に映ってとっても綺麗でした。花火が終わると、空も真っ暗になって星空が最高！船の上から南十字星が見えて感動。ちょっとスターナビゲーションの気分も味わえる楽しいクルーズでした。

There were only my husband and I who were Japanese, and the rest were all foreigners, but the staff supported us with their limited Japanese, which was very reassuring.
However, there was a group that got seasick, so they temporarily returned to the shore.
The catamaran sailing was pleasant and I highly recommend it; the snorkeling equipment was well-stocked, and they checked on us multiple times to see if we were okay.
I would like to use this service again, but I regret not knowing the typical tip amount and think I may have given too little.

日本人は私たち夫婦だけで、他は外国人ばかりでしたがスタッフは片言の日本語でフォローしてくれて、とても安心でした。
ただ船酔いしたグループがいたので、途中一旦もどり下船していました。
カタマランのセーリングは気持ちよくおすすめです、シュノーケル機材も充実していて何度も大丈夫か？と聞いてくれます。
また利用したいです、最後のチップの相場が分からなくて少なかったかなと、後悔しています。

I had a wonderful time from start to finish. The performance and Hawaiian music were absolutely fantastic, and the female duet performing Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley was very exciting. The dancers' movements were sophisticated, and I was so captivated by the final fire dancer that I forgot to breathe.

Lastly, I want to express my gratitude not only to the dancers and singers but also to the table service staff. Thank you for the excellent hospitality; it was thanks to you that I was able to enjoy this memorable time in Hawaii. Mahalo.

最初から最後まで、素晴らしい時間を過ごしました。演奏・ハワイアンミュージックは最高に良かったし、女性のデュエット・マイケル・ジャクソン・エルビスプレスリーを演じた方は、とてもエキサイティングでした。
ダンサーたちの動きは洗練されていて、最後のファイヤーダンスのダンサーは息をするのも忘れるくらい見入ってしまいました。
最後に感謝を伝えたいのは、ダンサーや歌手の皆さんだけではなく、テーブルサービスされているスタッフの方たちもです。最高のもてなしをしていただき、このハワイの思い出深い時間を過ごせたのもあなたたちのおかげです。『Mahalo』

Check-in at the Outrigger Reef beach tent is at 5:00, and we regroup at 5:20 to board the boat barefoot and set off. There is space behind the bench for bags and sandals. The all-you-can-drink options include Mai Tai, beer, sparkling drinks, and wine. We head out further into the ocean. It can get boring sitting down, so I stood at the front. The boat rocked a lot, but it was fun! Those who are prone to seasickness might struggle. There were only my husband, a girl, and me, the only Japanese people on board. Even without speaking English, we had a great time. Along the way, we saw a rainbow toward Diamond Head! It was so beautiful. The front of the boat gets splashed by the waves, so you will get wet. I was having so much fun that I lost track of what time the sunset was… I didn’t pay much attention since there were a lot of clouds. I recommend this for those who love the ocean and drinks and are okay with being on a boat.

ｱｳﾄﾘｶﾞｰﾘｰﾌの砂浜のﾃﾝﾄで5:00受付、5:20に再集合して裸足で船に乗り込み出発。ベンチの後ろに荷物とサンダルを置くｽﾍﾟｰｽあり。飲み放題の飲み物は、マイタイ、ビール、スパークリンク、ワインなど。沖に向かってどんどん進んでいきます。座っていてもつまらないので、前の方に立ってました。するとものすごく揺れます。でもそれが楽しかった！船に弱い人は無理かも。日本人は私たち夫婦と女の子一人だけ。英語が喋れなくても十分楽しめました。途中ダイアモンドヘッド方面に虹が！すごくきれいでした。先端の方は波が来るので濡れます。楽しすぎて何時夕日が沈んだか分からない位…雲が多かったのであまり気にして見てませんでした。海とお酒が好きで船が大丈夫な人にはお勧めです。

We used this for our honeymoon trip, and the staff's service was wonderful! When we took the lesson, there were only four of us, including my husband and me, so it was almost a one-on-one lesson, and we were able to stand on the board right away! We had plenty of time, more than we could have asked for, and we had a meaningful experience!

ハネムーン旅行で利用したのですが、
とにかく、スタッフさんの対応が素敵でした！！
私達がレッスンを受けた時は少人数で私達、夫婦含め4人だったのですが、ほぼワンツーマンでのレッスンで、すぐにボードの上に立つ事ができました！！
時間も、これ以上できないくらいまでたっぷりあり、有意義な時間を過ごせました！

I was expecting it to be a bit clearer, so I was somewhat disappointed, but I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience on a submarine.

もう少し鮮明に見えると、思っていたので少々期待はずれのところがありましたが、初めての潜水艦堪能できました。

The venue is on the rooftop of the 6th floor, and every visitor is given a fresh flower lei, which you can take back to Japan. Upon entry, you can take commemorative photos with the dancers, and during the show, seats are sold for $50. Once seated, the buffet starts in order of table rank, and then the show begins. There was a sudden downpour, but the venue staff, who were older gentlemen, distributed raincoats to everyone. The content of the show was stunning, with a different level of excitement compared to Spa Resort Hawaiians in Fukushima Prefecture.

6階屋上が会場で、来場者の全ての方に生花レイをかけてくれて、日本に持ち帰えることも出来ました。
入場するとダンサーの方と記念撮影、ショーの最中に50ドルで席まで販売してきます。
着席するとテーブルランク順にブュッフェスタート、そーするとショーもスタートします。
途中、スコールがありましたが、会場スタッフのおじいちゃん達が一人ひとりにカッパを配ってました。
ショーの内容は圧巻、福島県のスパリゾートハワイアンズとは違った迫力がありました。

Excellent food and entertainment. The show was outstanding and the buffet style was great to be able to try several new foods

It was very beautiful, and I was able to observe the seabed slowly. Along the way, I also saw sea turtles and many fish, which made me satisfied.

The boat to the submarine was very rocky, and I ended up feeling seasick. On the way back, we stopped on the water for about 10 minutes before heading to the port for photo sales, which made me feel sick again.

Overall, I was satisfied with the experience that I wouldn't normally have.

とてもきれいでゆっくりと海底を観察できました。
途中ウミガメやたくさんの魚も見ることができ、満足です。

潜水艦までの船がとても揺れたため船酔いをしてしましました。
帰りの船で写真の販売の為、港へ向けて出発するのに10分前後海上で
停船したため酔いました。

総合的に普段できない体験ができ満足です。

I have been to Hawaii many times, but this time I challenged myself to try surfing for the first time! I decided to join the tour after reading the reviews. Since I wasn't sure about the location of the lesson, I opted for the pickup service, but I think I could go there on my own next time. Although the lesson wasn't in Japanese, there was someone who could instruct in Japanese! Moreover, it was a surprising reunion with someone I had met multiple times in the past at a certain place. I realized that it required more physical strength than I had imagined. I haven't mastered surfing completely, so I would like to participate in this tour again when I have the chance. Even as a beginner, they provide proper instruction, so I was able to stand up a few times. It was fun!

今まで何度もハワイへ行っていますが、今回、初サーフィンに挑戦！！こちらの口こみをみて、ツアー参加を決めました。
レッスン場所の位置がわからなかったので、送迎ありにしましたが、次回参加するときは自分達で行けると思う場所にありました。日本語レッスンにはしていませんでしたが、日本語で指導していただける方！！しかも、とある所で過去に何回もお会いしている方で、ビックリの再会でした。想像していたより、体力を使うことがわかりました。全部サーフィンをマスターしたわけではないので、また機会をみて、このツアーに参加したいと思います。確かに初めてでも、ちゃんと指導してくれるので、何回かは、立てます。楽しかったです。

We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the snorkel catamaran. The boat crew was not only incredibly informative on use of equipment, but ensured first time
Snorkelers like ourselves had adequate support. They were also pretty comical as well! Seeing the sea turtles was awesome! One crew member even dove down to to the reef to retrieve my dropped cell phone! I had so many priceless photos and memories from my Dad’s funeral on the phone, that I would not have been able to replace them. Thank you for the incredible experience.

The last time I went to Hawaii, I enjoyed a dinner cruise where I could relax and savor my meal while cruising, but this sailing experience made me feel even closer to the ocean. It was truly wonderful to be splashed by the waves and to connect with nature! I could feel the ocean's blue up close, the wind on my skin, and the pleasant buzz from the Mai Tai and beer added to the sense of freedom. The sailing staff were very friendly and even danced with us, which made it so much fun! I definitely want to do this again when I go back to Hawaii!

前回ハワイへ行った時はディナークルーズに乗りゆっくり食事をしながらクルージングを楽しみましたが、このセイリングはもっと海を身近に感じ、特には波しぶきもかぶり自然と対話する素晴らしいものでした！
海が近く海の青さを実感でき、風を直接肌で受け、程よいアルコール（マイタイとビールを頂きました！）で更に開放感
そしてセイリングスタッフとダンスを踊っていただき、とてもフレンドリーな方達でとても楽しかったです！
またハワイに行ったら乗りたいと思います！

Perhaps due to the large number of attendees, the weather was not particularly bad, but the event was held in an indoor facility adjacent to the outdoor venue. However, the indoor space was equipped with better lighting and facilities, which made the show even more enjoyable than it might have been outdoors.

Additionally, the fire dance was performed in a small courtyard area just outside the indoor venue. We were able to stand up from our seats and surround the performers, allowing us to see them up close and truly enjoy the experience.

人数が多かった為か、特に天候は悪くなかったのですが屋外会場でなく隣接する室内施設での開催でした。
ただ、屋内の方がライトアップ設備等が充実しており、むしろ屋外よりもショーを楽しめたのでは、と思っています。

また、ファイアーダンスのみは室内から少しだけ出た中庭のような場所で行われ、席から立って演者を囲む形で見学するのですが、とても近くで見ることが出来、楽しむことが出来ました。

Jimmy was my surf instructor and he was knowledgeable, friendly, and very encouraging. I actually caught a few waves. Overall, I had a great experience and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

From the land, it was once. Last year, I was too busy eating on the dinner cruise, and by the time the fireworks started, it was already too late, resulting in a disappointing outcome. This time, I chose this tour that I previously boarded at sunset. Although there were changes in the captain and crew, the friendly atmosphere remained the same, and the all-you-can-drink option made for a pleasant fireworks viewing experience. When the captain shouted "SAKE NOMIHOUDAI" in Japanese, several Japanese people applauded.

陸上からは1回。昨年はデイナークルーズで食べるのに忙しくて花火の歓声が上がった時には、既にとき遅し残念な結果となりました。今回は以前サンセットで乗船したこのツアーにしました。船長やクルーの変更はあったけど、フレンドリーな雰囲気はそのままでドリンク飲み放題も効して気持ちよく花火鑑賞ができました。船長が日本語で「SAKE　NOMIHOUDAI」と叫んだときは数人の日本人が拍手しました。

The food was exceptional especially considering the number of people being served. The staff was polite and very accommodating. The young entertainers interacted with the crowd and performed in their traditional attire. We came back to the port with a bang, singing and dancing. I would definitely recommend this cruise. My only disappointment was that the harbor/tower area used to be filled with shops. It was our last night on the island and it would have been nice to purchase those last minute sovereigns. Now it’s just empty with a few eateries.

I arrived a little earlier than my reservation time, but I was smoothly guided to a great seat right in front of the band. The music was pleasant and the atmosphere was perfect. Unfortunately, the deluxe pupu platter we ordered was enormous, and there was no way we could finish it. We ended up leaving some behind, even though we wouldn't eat it as takeout. I'm sorry to the staff for that. It was so good that I visited again the day before my return home. This time, I ordered just one pupu dish, and it was just the right amount.

予約時間より少し早くつきましたが、スムーズにバンドの正面の良い席に案内されました。音楽も心地よく雰囲気もバッチリ。残念なのは予約のデラックスププメニュー。凄い山盛り盛り絶対に我々は食べきれない。テイクアウトしても食べないので残しました。お店の方ごめんなさい。良かったので帰国の前日に又、訪れました。今度はププを一品だけ注文して丁度いい感じでした。

It was my first show. I didn't have high expectations, but it was surprisingly fun and a great show. I would like to go again if I have the chance.

初めてのしょうでした。きたいはしていませんが思った以上にすごく楽しくて良いショーでした。また機会があれば行きたいです。
