All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

We had a great time! Met some awesome people! The crew was fantastic! Amazing views

We went with five family members: three adults and two children aged 8 and 3. The two children were not prompted to wear life jackets, but we could borrow them for free if we asked. They provide three to four practical sessions. The staff members at the back steer while we paddle, so the girls and kids were fine just holding the oars. Riding the waves was more thrilling than we imagined! During our first try, while riding the waves, a Japanese surfer suddenly appeared, and we had to steer to avoid him, almost capsizing. Foreigners were all very good at dodging. For those who can't swim and for children, wearing a life jacket is absolutely essential. This kind of situation is rare, but it was quite scary. Since my 3-year-old was frightened, we ended our attempts after three tries, including one failure. They seemed willing to let us go again, but we decided to finish. Middle schoolers and above will have a blast!

大人３人８才３才の家族５人で乗りました。子供２人のライフジャッケトの着用促されませんでしたが、一応、無料で、こちらから頼み無料で借りれました。３回から４回実地してくれます。こぐのもスタッフ２人が後ろで舵をとりながら、してくれるので、女子供はオールを持ってるだけでも大丈夫でした。波に乗ると想像以上にスリリング！！最初のトライの時、波に乗ってる中で、サーファーの日本人が飛び出してきて、こちらが、舵を切りよけて、横波に当たられ転覆寸前でした。外人さんはみんな上手によけてくれます。泳げない方や子供は絶対にライフジャッケット必須です。こんなことは、まずないようでしたが、ビビリマシタ。３歳の子供が怖がったため、失敗入れて３回でトライ終了。もう１回行ってくれそうでしたが、終了してもらいました。中学生以上は、メッチャ楽しめます。

Worth every penny!!!
We enjoyed our cruise
Highly recommend it

Great fireworks, sailing, and Maitais! Definitely do it again.

When we set sail, we were rocked by the waves, but once we got out to sea, it felt like a comfortable cradle. We thoroughly enjoyed the fireworks, and as the night sky darkened, the stars began to shine, and the sparkling night view of Waikiki was beautiful. It was the best cruising experience, with the sea breeze blowing. However, when disembarking, the high tide caused the waves to be rough, and someone fell due to the strong waves. It's recommended to keep your phone and other items in a waterproof case.

船出した時は波に揺られましたが、沖に出てしまえば、心地良い揺りかごのよう。花火はもちろん堪能しましたが、暮れゆく夜空に星々が輝き始め、ワイキキの夜景の煌めきも美しく、海風に吹かれて最高のクルージングでした。ただし下船の際に満潮で波が高く、高波の直撃を受けて転んだ方がいました。携帯等は、防水ケースに入れておくのがオススメです。

It was my first time seeing Waikiki from the ocean. The fireworks ended in about five minutes, but since we were seated on the third-floor deck for the appetizers, we had a great view during the fireworks.

海からワイキキをみるのは初めてでした。花火はものの5分程度で終了しましたが、アペタイザーは３階のデッキに最初から座るので花火のとき良い席でした。

I signed up for the 10 AM tour, so the commentary was in Japanese. The local guide's Japanese explanation was entertaining and easy to understand, with some jokes mixed in. We took a boat to the point where we boarded the submarine, and the second floor of the boat was very pleasant, giving us a nice cruise feeling. It was a bit cold inside the submarine. There were many young groups and families. We were able to see colorful fish and sharks. Unfortunately, I didn't receive a certificate.

10時のツアーに申し込んだので日本語の解説でした。現地の方の日本語の解説は、ジョークも交えて面白おかしく、そしてわかりやすいものでした。潜水艦に乗るポイントまでは、船で行くのですが、船の2階はとても気持ちよく、ちょっとしたクルーズ気分が味わえて良かったです。潜水艦内では、ちょっと寒かったです。若いグループや、ファミリーが多かったです。カラフルな魚やサメも見れました(^ ^)証明書はもらえなかったです。

I returned to my teenage years and reaffirmed that Hawaii is an indispensable legend. It was great.

10代にもどれました、またハワイに欠くことの出来ないレジェンドで在った事を再認識しました、良かったです。

Although it was a short time, we went out to sea and felt the beauty of Diamond Head and the surrounding scenery, truly experiencing Hawaii. I sailed with my daughter, and she also seemed very satisfied, saying she had a great time!

短時間でしたが、沖に出てダイヤモンドヘッドや周りの景色、海を感じて、ハワイに来たな〜〜と感じるセイリングでした(^^)娘と乗船しましたが、娘も楽しかった！と大満足の様子でした。

I have participated in sunset cruises several times, but this was my first daytime yacht cruise. The catamaran felt stable and didn't sway much. There was a net at the bow where I could lie down and look at the sea. It was refreshing, and the sea breeze felt great.
Drinks and snacks were included. The staff spoke only English, but they were very friendly and took photos for us.

サンセットクルーズには何回か参加したことが有りますが、日中のヨットクルーズは初めてでした。双胴船で安定した感じで揺れはさほどありません。舳にはネットが張ってあり寝転んで海を見ることが出来ました。爽快で海風が気持ち良かったです。
ドリンクとスナックが付いていました。フタッフさんは英語のみでしたが、写真を撮ってくれたりとてもフレンドリーでした。

The underwater world was not monochrome, but rather a monochromatic blue. I was peering in with all my might, but there weren't many fish. However, the view of Waikiki from the boat was great.

海底はモノクロならぬモノアオのせかいでした
一生懸命のぞいていたけど
魚はなかなかいませんでした
でも船から見たワイキキの眺めは
よかったです

It was hard to find the location, and I got lost. There is a boarding area at the beach inside the Sheraton. Before boarding the yacht, we took some photos and then got on. The welcome drink was a Mai Tai, followed by an all-you-can-drink option. There were about three groups of Japanese people, but most of the guests were white. However, I really enjoyed that it was the most interaction I had with foreigners during my trip to Hawaii.

場所がわかりずらく迷いました。シェラトンの中のビーチに乗り場があります。ヨットに乗る前に写真撮影し、乗船。アルコールはマイタイがウエルカムドリンク。その後飲み放題。日本人は3組程度でほぼ白人でした。が、ハワイ旅行で一番外人と触れ合えたのが楽しかったです。

It is a fun tour starting right from Waikiki Beach. The tide was high when we left so it was a bit if a challenge to get on board but once on it, it was a great evening. A good adult punch and local beer was all it took ...

When getting on and off, high waves came, and I got quite wet up to my waist. I had read reviews about this, so I wore a quick-drying dress, flip-flops, and a swimsuit underneath, which allowed me to enjoy without any stress.
The black yacht named Mai Tai stood out and looked cool, and the staff wore matching colored T-shirts, so I thought I would definitely buy one if they had it.
Drinking a Mai Tai, seeing a rainbow, and viewing Diamond Head from various angles felt really nice.

乗るときと降りるときに高い波が来て、けっこうビシャっと腰まで濡れました。そんな口コミを見ていたので、すぐ乾くワンピースに、ビーサン、中には水着を着ていったので、ストレスなく楽しめました。
マイタイ号の黒いヨットは、目立っていてかっこよく、従業員さんが同じカラーのTシャツを着ていたので、あればぜったい買ったのになぁと思いました。
マイタイを飲んで、虹も見れて、ダイヤモンドヘッドも色々な方向から見れて、とても気持ちが良かったです。

Riding on a submarine was a first-time experience for me. It was great to see the fish at the bottom of the sea and the sunken ship. However, I did feel a bit seasick.

潜水艦に乗った事自体が、初体験でした。
海底の魚達や沈没船を観れた事が、とても良かったです。
ただ、少し船酔してしまいました。

From check in with the staff at the office to Our instructor Christian and Captain Steve and the rest of the crew, the whole day was outstanding! Great instruction, kindness, patience, and clean equipment.

While being rocked by the boat, the crew also got everyone excited, and with some drinks in us, we all became cheerful, dancing and singing. We had a great time and definitely want to participate again next time.

船に揺られながら、クルー達も盛り上げてくれて、お酒が入った私達もみんな陽気になり、踊ったり、歌ったりとっても楽しめました。次回もまた、必ず参加したいです。

Had a great time. It's worth it. Highly recommeded

The Rock a Hula show was good, including Elvis presley, michael jackson, and katie perry. It also included traditional festive hawaiian misic, and dance, as was quite entertaining.!! I would recommend taking the show-laua package, food was great, and hosts were sooo nice!! I hope you will decide to go. The fire knife dance was also very entertaining!! He pressed the fire directly to his tongue, and held up the fire directly with his feet! Also twirled the fire with both hands! I cannot believe how he can stand the heat!! Elvis presley sang many songs, and came off the stage into the balcony, and shook my hand, and hugged my wife, unbelievable!! Michael jackson did his moonwalk, and sang classic mj songs like billie jean, etc., so entertaining!! He really looked like michael jackson, the black geri-curled hair, signature white glove, red dance jacket, and those famous michael jackson dance moves, WOW!!
I can't say enough about the venue, the hotel which held the show, the drinks were awesome, all the staff were so nice, so accomodating, and everyone was helpful!! When I return to hawaii in june I plan to go again with my sons!! You would really enjoy this show, I highly recommend it!! The total experience was an unforgettable pleasure!!

My husband took me here for our Anniversary. We had a great time at the buffet! The food was amazing and so was the dinner entertainment! There isn't a bad seat in the place! They engaged the audience in the performance and not only were the main acts great, the dancers were amazing and kept the audience attention the whole time. You weren't ready for it to be over, but it was nice to take pictures wth the entertainers after the show. It was my husbands second time attending, so I bet we will be back for another show! Worth every penny!

During my trip to Hawaii with my mother, I wanted to see a hula dance show since we were in Hawaii. I found information about this hula show in other guidebooks and thought it might be famous, so we decided to participate. The location was excellent, right in the center of Waikiki, and the show ended after 9 PM. I was a bit worried about walking back to the hotel, but there were plenty of people around, and we were able to walk back safely.

We gathered at the Royal Hawaiian Center around 6:30 PM and had our meal in a tent-like area outside. It was a lot of fun to interact with others seated nearby. The buffet-style meal was delicious, and the staff were all very cheerful, creating a bright and enjoyable atmosphere. After having dessert and taking a restroom break, we entered the venue right in front of us and took photos with the performers.

When the performance started, the hula dance and impersonation show began, and everything was really enjoyable. Watching the performers dance so happily lifted our spirits as well. The impersonation performers ranged from stars of the grandmother generation to current popular figures, making it a show that people of all ages could enjoy.

Seeing this show energized me and made me feel very cheerful. It was a lot of fun!

母と2人でハワイへ旅行した際に、ハワイに来たからにはフラダンスを見たいと思い、他のガイドブックにもこのフラショーについて書いてあり、有名なのかなと思い参加してみました。立地がとても良く、ワイキキの中心部にあり夜9時過ぎに終演で、帰り道など危なくないかと不安でしたが、人通りも多く、ホテルまで歩いて帰れました。
18時30分頃ロイヤルハワイアンセンターへ集合し、食事は外のテントのような所で食べました。席が近くなった方と交流したりとても楽しかったです。また、食事はビュッフェスタイルでとても美味しい料理ばかりでした。スタッフの方もとても陽気な方ばかりで、明るい雰囲気がとても楽しかったです。 食後のデザートを食べ、トイレ休憩した後は目の前の会場の中に入り、パフォーマーの方と写真を撮りました。 パフォーマンスが始まると、フラダンスとモノマネショーが始まりどれもとても楽しかったです。パフォーマーの方がとても楽しそうに踊っている姿をみて、私たちも楽しい気分になりました。モノマネパフォーマーのおばあちゃん世代のスター〜今時の流行りの方だったりと、どの世代も楽しめるようなショーでした。
このショーを見れて元気が出ましたし、とても明るい気持ちになりました。 楽しかったです！

Fireworks, free Maitai's, and sailing at night along Waikiki beach. How can you go wrong? You can't. This is the best Waikiki attraction for the bucks. And the drinks were excellent.

OPEN BAR!!!!

Mahalo.

This had to be one of the highlights of our holiday! Relaxing, amazing and the coktails are beautiful!

I had known about it for a while, but this was my first time participating. The day I had reserved before leaving for Hawaii was forecasted to be rainy, so I changed my reservation after arriving in Hawaii! Even though it was a windy day and some people were feeling seasick, it was truly a fun time with music, drinks, and cheerful foreigners!

以前から知っていましたが、今回初めて参加しました。ハワイ出発前に予約していた日は雨予報でしたので、ハワイに着いてから予約日変更！
それでも風が強い日で、船酔いされている方もいましたが、音楽とお酒と陽気な外国人ばかりで本当に楽しい時間でした！

These guys have got it down, great drinks, music selection, and beautiful views! Their maitais are delicious too!

I participated in a group lesson. The instructor was very kind and taught us in a detailed manner, which was great.

グループレッスンに参加しました。インストラクターの方がとても親切で丁寧に教えてくれたので、よかったです。

Outstanding crew. My wife does great in calm water but with the choppy water she was apprehensive about snorkeling. The crew calmed her and threw bred crumbs into the water by her to get fish to come near her so she could enjoy the snorkeling close to the boat. Food was great.

We had great time, the food was good with very nice servers who were also the hula dancers, they were very entertaining and made it a great experience, a singer was there the whole time too. Afterwards we went into the theater for the show. The performers were great especially the Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators, also the whole show had a Hawaiian theme with interspersed hula dances. Best part was the guy with the fire at the end. Overall very entertaining and highly recommended.

I saw that they were giving away a photo DVD (worth $25) as a nice keepsake, so my wife and I signed up for a semi-private lesson. After the lesson, we received a DVD that contained a total of 435 photos, but we only appeared in 27 of them. Moreover, 11 of those were of us paddling back to shore. Including blurry and poorly taken shots, there were only 16 decent photos of us standing. There were about 10 good photos in total. I will never use this school again.

☆レッスン中の写真DVD（$25相当）をプレゼント！☆ と書いていたので良い記念になると思って、家内と２人でセミプライベートレッスンを申し込んだ。
レッスン後に受け取ったDVDには全部で435枚の写真が入っていたが、そのうちで自分たちが映っていたのはたったの27枚。
しかも、そのうちの11枚は岸に戻ってくるパドリング姿。
落ちかけやピンボケを含んで立っている姿は２人合わせてたったの16枚。
まともな写真は10枚程度。
2度とここのスクールを使うことは無い。

Since Hawaiian shows are not easy to come by, if you're staying at the Hilton, I think you won't regret going to this one located on the rooftop of the parking lot. There are more locals than Japanese people. You can fill your plate with buffet-style food from the good seats in order. It's better not to expect much in terms of taste. However, the content of the show is worth it. The final fire dance, in particular, is impressive.

なかなかハワイアンショーは見れないので、ヒルトンに泊まってるなら、駐車場の屋上にあるこちらに行っても損はしないと思います。
日本人より本国の方が多め。
良い席から順にブュッフェスタイルの料理をプレートに入れて行きます。味は期待しない方が良い。
ただ、ショーの内容は価値あり。特に最後のファイヤーダンスは迫力ありますよ。
