All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

I heard from a knowledgeable acquaintance about this show being enjoyable, so I decided to sign up. To conclude, I was very satisfied with the content.

Since I participated in the Green Room Monitor Tour, I was initially guided to the Green Room, but I was not used to the VIP treatment and felt confused. I think it was meant to be a special hospitality setting, but I felt it wasn't necessary to pay for it.

The backstage tour was interesting, but it didn't exceed my expectations. The show was as expected, featuring performances by Elvis, Michael, and Gaga, as well as hula and fire shows, which I thoroughly enjoyed. However, I wish the quality of Gaga's performance had been a bit higher.

Regarding the meal, the portion size was appropriate, and I thought the taste was good. However, the chocolate cake for dessert was too sweet, and I didn't see anyone around me able to finish it. I think it might not suit Japanese tastes.

It became a wonderful memory for my last night in Hawaii. I would like to visit again if I have the opportunity. Lastly, thank you to all the backup dancers for your hard work. Keep it up!

ハワイ通の知人から、このショーが楽しいと聞いて申し込みしました。
結論からいえば、大変満足できる内容でした。
グリーンルームモニターツアーへの参加ということで、最初グリーンルームに案内されましたが、VIP待遇に慣れておらず、わけがわからず、戸惑いました。特別なもてなしという設定だと思いますが、料金を払ってまで必要はないかなと思います。
舞台裏見学はおもしろかったのですが、期待した以上の内容はありませんでした。
ショーは期待どおりで、プレスリー、マイケル、ガガのショーだけでなく、フラ、ファイアーショーもあり、大変楽しめました。
ただ、カガのクォリティーが、もう少し高ければと思います。
食事に関しては　量も適量で、味も良かったと思います。
ただ、デザートのチョコレートケーキが甘すぎ、周りの人で食べきれている人はいませんでした。日本人の口には合わないと思います
ハワイ最終日の夜の良い思い出になりました。機会があればまたお邪魔したいと思っています。
最後にバックダンサーのみなさんたいへんお疲れさまでした。がんばってください。

This is my fourth cruise. The Mai Tai is delicious, and the view of the cityscape and Diamond Head from the sea is amazing; I never get tired of it, no matter how many times I go!

今回で４回目となりましたクルーズ。マイタイは美味しいし、海からの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドの景色は最高で、何度行っても飽きません！

The trip was fun and nice, totally worth more than the price! We had a great time.

It was my son's second private lesson, and he had a very kind and easy-to-understand instructor who spoke to him multiple times with gentleness. I also found the instructor to be very friendly and pleasant. Both of them were able to ride the waves almost perfectly, and we were very satisfied. The next day, I tried it alone and was able to ride successfully. I thought about surfing when I return to Japan, but since my neck hurts, it's difficult for an old man to do it for long periods... Ah, it was fun.

12歳の息子と2回目のプライベートレッスンでした。息子のインストラクターの方はとても親切で分かりやすく優しく何度も話しかけてくださっていました。私の方もとても気さくな方でいい感じでした。二人ともほぼ波に乗れて大変満足でした。翌日私は一人でトライし、うまく乗ることができました。日本に帰ってもサーフィンしてみるかー？と思いましたが、ただ首が痛くなるので長時間はおじさんには無理ですね、、、ああ楽しかった。

It was a windy day, so the boat rocked quite a bit. I think it might be difficult for those who are prone to seasickness.

The group of Americans on board was very lively, creating a party atmosphere, which made it a lot of fun.

The sunset is very beautiful, and you can enjoy stunning views of the 360° blue ocean and the hotels in Waikiki from the sea.

The all-you-can-drink option at this price is a great deal. However, the photo taken before boarding was a bit pricey at $20 each. It's not necessary to buy this, though...

風が強い日だったので、舟はかなり揺れました。船酔いする方には難しいかと思います。
乗り合わせたアメリカ人の団体さんがかなりテンション高く、船上パーティー状態だったので、かなり楽しかったです。
夕陽はとてもきれいですし、360°青い海と言う光景や、海側から見たワイキキのホテルなど、美しい眺めが楽しめます。
飲み放題でこの価格はお得です。
ただ、乗船前に撮った写真が1枚20ドルだったのはちょっと割高感があります。これは買わなくても良いのですが…。

Whale watching offers the chance to see various sights depending on your luck. Depending on the difficulty, you may witness spouts, splashes from the tail, and back jumps, allowing you to test your fortune. If you happen to miss all of these, don't worry, as a re-boarding is guaranteed, so feel free to head out with peace of mind.

ホエールウォッチングは、あなたの運次第で次の光景を見ることができます。難易度に応じて、潮吹き→尾びれのしぶき→背面ジャンプと続き、あなたの運を試すことができます。万が一、このどれも見れないときは再乗船が保障されているので安心してお出かけ下さい。

Great Service. Drivers are friendly. Customer service center response quickly and patiently

The organization of customer entry is inadequate. If we don't assign guides and make announcements in Japanese, attendees will wander around with their drinks, going back and forth multiple times before entering the venue. By the time they get in, they've already finished their drinks while waiting in line, making the drinks unnecessary.

As for the content of the performance, I would rate it four stars.

お客様の入場整理がだめです。案内人を配置する、日本語でアナウンスするなどしなければ会場に入るまでにドリンクを持ってあっちうろうろ、こっちうろうろと何回うろうろさせられたか、ドリンクは入場まで並んでいる時間で飲んでしまい、ドリンクは不要ですね。
本番の中身は、星４つですかね。

It's my 3rd time with Star of Honolulu and they never fail to amaze me!
I was greeted with a beautiful smile by Kathleen at the ticket office. She was very nice, friendly, and it seems like she was enjoying her job. Before we boarded, the dancers are always very entertaining, a unique way to welcome their guests (yes, I've been to other dinner cruises and only Star of Honolulu has this great idea).
At the boat, here comes the cheerful and very energetic Freddie, who took us to our table. He didn't realize there were eight (8) of us but he was able to accommodate us right away having our own table by the window! He is the Assistant Floor Manager and I was really impressed with his friendliness and bright personality, he is funny too! The couples that we were with are visitors from Canada, celebrating their Silver Wedding Anniversary. I forgot to mention this special occasion when I made the booking so I told Freddie if there’s a way he can announce it after dinner. Knowing how busy they were, I never expected it to happen but I was extremely happy and grateful that he didn't forget. After the Polynesian entertainment, he immediately pulled my couple family towards the stage to make their dance. All the other couples, honeymooners, anniversary celebrants, followed. It was an honor!! Thank you so much Freddie for that, it was a memory of a lifetime for my family.
I would also like to give credit to Jay, who was our server that night, in fact all the crew members because they know how to take care of their guests, they're fast and attentive! The One Star package is not bad at all, I actually like this better than the Three Star believe it or not and IT'S ALL YOU CAN EAT CRAB LEGS!! Yummy! The steak was delicious also, so tender and juicy!
Will definitely cruise with Star of Honolu again and again! True "Aloha" spirit..good impression for those visiting the islands for the first time...greatly satisfied with the services they offer. Thumbs up SOH!!

I have done dinner cruise before in Honolulu many times. This time was the best ever experience. From time arrived at dock until returned to hotel was amazing . Everyone was friendly, food good, service amazing.

Last time, I rode on the smaller submarine, so this time I chose the larger one called the Premium Submarine. The size difference is quite significant, and it was impressive when it surfaced. The interior is spacious, and the large windows make it easy to see underwater. Entering involves descending a vertical ladder, which adds a bit of tension. The wreckage of ships and planes is mysterious.

前回一度小さな方の潜水艦に乗ったことがありましたので今回プレミアムサブマリンと言う大きな方を選択しました。大きさもかなり違い浮上して来る時は圧巻でした艦内も広く窓も大きいので水中が見やすいです。入る時は垂直の梯子で降りるので少し緊張感有ります、船や飛行機の残骸は神秘的です。

The crew was friendly and entertaining throughout the whole time. Perfect package for what we did

The sunset cruise departing at 5:30 PM was fully booked. There was a group of Australians, a couple of families with children, and couples from the West Coast, and we were the only Japanese participants. When boarding the yacht, you toss your shoes into a large plastic bucket and board barefoot. Some people took off their sneakers, but flip-flops are the best choice. When disembarking, you'll end up flipping the bucket over on the sandy beach to find your shoes, so it's a good idea to mark expensive sandals. The wind and scenery were fantastic. We encountered whales and saw splashes, and a sea turtle swam by us, making for a fulfilling two hours. The meeting point on the beach and the reception area were somewhat easy to find.

１７：３０出港のサンセットクルーズ、定員フルでした。
オージーの団体さん、子供連れの２〜３ファミリー、西海岸からのカップルなどで、邦人は我々だけでした。
ヨットに乗り込む際に履物を大きなポリバケツに放り込んで裸足で乗船します。
スニーカーを脱ぐ人もいましたが、ビーサンがベストです。下船時に砂浜にバケツをひっくり返して自分の履物を探すことになるので、高価なサンダルとかは目印しといたほうがいいです。
風と景色いうことありません。クジラにも遭遇しスプラッシュを見れたし、ウミガメが側を泳いだりと充実した２時間でした。
ビーチの集合場所、受付もなんとなく判ります。

The scheduled date was canceled due to rough waves and was carried out the next day. I participated this time as a preview, thinking of joining with my grandchildren next time. I heard that the person who participated with me was doing this for the fifth time, and I joined with high expectations, but it turned out to be quite ordinary, which was a bit disappointing. I think it would be great if someone fluent in English could explain. I believe the person explaining should incorporate unique stories to make it even better. I think my grandchildren will have to give up next time due to language barriers.

予約した日程は、波が荒く中止で翌日に実行。次回、孫達と一緒にと思い、下見で今回参加しました。一緒に参加した人は今回で５回目だと聞き、期待度ピークで参加したら、余りにも普通で、期待外れでチョット残念。英語が堪能な方は最高だと思いました。説明する方がユニークな話を交えて最高だと思います。次回孫達は言葉の関係が有り断念せざるを得ないと思っています。

The show featured impersonations of Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, and Elvis Presley, along with Polynesian dance and a fire show, making for a packed experience. The impersonations were surprisingly high quality and truly impressive!

In particular, Michael's dance was captivating, and it was worth coming just to see that! Presley even came down to the audience, showing great spirit of service! Gaga's acoustic performance was also great. After the show, they took photos with us in pairs and offered handshakes and autographs. It was a really fun show, and I would love to see it again.

I signed up for the cocktail show, but I had no trouble seeing the stage from the second floor. Next time, I want to participate in the dinner show as well.

マイケル・ジャクソン、レディ・ガガ、エルビス・プレスリーのモノマネショーに、ポリネシアンダンス、ファイヤーショーと盛りだくさんの内容でした。モノマネも想像以上にクオリティが高く、本格派で圧巻でした！

特にマイケルのダンスは見応えがあり、これだけでも観に来る価値がありました！プレスリーも客席まで来てくれたり、サービス精神満載！ガガの引き語りも良かったです。ショー終了後はそれぞれ2ショットでの写真撮影にも応じてくれ、握手にサインも。とっても楽しいショーでまた観に来たいです。

カクテルショーで申し込みましたが、二階席からでも問題なくステージを見渡せました。次回はディナーショーにも参加したいです。

I wanted to do something special for my daughter and friend and thought a dinner cruise would be wonderful. I went the extra mile and extra money to upgrade to a window seat . I did the reservation almost three to four weeks in advance Upon boarding we were seated next to the wall. The third window seat was not a window seat but just behind the window seat. If I leaned up and out I could see.
When I asked to be moved I asked the manager if I could be seated next to the window she stated they were full and she offered a bottle of wine, as I don't drink I asked her to treat me like she would treat her mother, and that is when she told me her mother was nice, implying I wasn't. I had thought I had been nice up to that point I had just wanted to see as that is what I had paid for this time(I have been on this tour before and sat in the middle ) They did offer us an upgrade and a nice private table, meaning quiet, back near the door as to not see the show. The upgraded meal was delicious and as we had all lived in Oahu the show was not really missed. I am not sure I would recommend this tour unless you upgraded to the dinner and not the buffet. I would recommend a maximum of two for the window seating and make sure you state near the wall does not count. Other than the manager's attitude which I allowed to bother me, the servers were efficient, courteous and friendly.

# couple booked but we ended up going as 2 1/2 couple3s as one was sick. Great atmosphere interaction was supurb from the multi national public all guided by a great host. Buffet dinner was excellent and then the show topped it off for a great evening awesome value for money here.

This is a MUST do for everyone and anyone. We did the fireworks cruise and it was incredible. The staff were amazing and the drinks were awesome. This was the perfect way to end our week in Hawaii.

Great driver and very knowledgeable. Helpful with helping everyone with their gear

The day of participation was quite sunny, and since there were no other Japanese participants, I really felt like I was abroad, which made it so much fun. The juice I drank on the boat was exceptional! I was also able to see turtles swimming in the sea, which became a wonderful memory.♪

参加日はかなりの晴天で、また他の参加者に日本人がいなかったため、これぞ外国！という気分を味わえてとっても楽しかったです。
船の上で飲むジュースはまた格別でした！
海で泳ぐ亀も見ることができ、とってもよい思い出になりました♪

Third time on my dinner cruise - it was excellent!!!!

A great day to snorkel. The drivers were well informed and explained everything we needed to know. They even were very knowledgable during to drive to and from the bay. Definately recommend this tour.

This was a fun day activities, the two gentleman was great host. We would do it again and highly recommend it...

Actually, my wife teaches hula in Japan, so I am quite familiar with it. However, since my wife's sister was visiting Hawaii for the first time, we decided to take her to see a hula and Hawaiian show on the terrace of the Hilton Hotel. The show included Tahitian dance and some slightly arranged hula, and if you view it as a show, it was enjoyable enough. The food was standard and didn't change much, and it seemed that the seating didn't matter too much, so we were glad we got the standard tickets!

実は妻が日本でフラの教室をしていますので、私もかなりフラに関しては馴染み深いのですが、妻の姉が今回初ハワイでしたので、ショー形式のフラ・ハワイアンショーをヒルトンホテルの中階層のテラスで見せてあげようと出かけてきました。タヒチアンあり、多少アレンジされたフラが有り、ショーとして割り切って見ればそれなりに楽しめるショーでした。食事の内容はスタンダードも変わりませんし、席もあまり関係ないようですので、スタンダードチケットで私達はかえってよかったね！と、思った位でした。

We really had a great time- friendly staff and plenty of room on the boat- not crowded. We would definately do it again

End of season for whale watch so we didnt get to see one but it was lovely just to cruise around the ocean. Nice weather on that day. Free transportation pick up and friendly staff. Got free re sail voucher but upgraded mine to atlantis submarine which was amazing to see things underwater. Will sign up to this in the future again

Very helpful, pleasant and friendly crew. The lunch was a pleasant surprise as it was not only very tasteful but also well organized and there was more than enough. Actually seeing whales was thrilling and very exciting.

We participated as a couple. It was both my wife and my first time surfing, but we were taught with great care and attention, and I was able to stand on the board on my first try! The wind was weak and the waves were small that day, so we couldn't ride as much, but the instructor, Mr. Nelson, was very friendly, and we had a lot of enjoyable conversations. While waiting for the waves on the board, I felt happy floating and looking at the scenery of Waikiki. By the end, both of us were able to stand until the very end, and it was a wonderful experience. If our schedules allowed, we would have liked to do it again!

夫婦で参加しました。
私も家内も人生初のサーフィンでしたが、懇切丁寧に教えていただき、1回目のトライでちゃんとボードに立つことができました！
この日は風が弱く、波も小さかったのであまりたくさんは乗れませんでしたが、インストラクターのNelson氏がとても気さくで、色々な会話が出来て楽しかったです。ボードの上で波を待つ間も、ワイキキの景色を眺めながら浮いていられて幸せです。
最後には２人とも最後まで立っていられるようになり、とてもすばらしい体験でした。スケジュールが合えばもう一回したかったです！

Incredible views of Honolulu & Diamond head, nice breeze, a fun crew, and all you can drink Mai Tais, what could be better?

My wife & I were really glad we chose the sunset catamaran over the night (fireworks) one, as it got a bit chilly after the sunset... especially if you happen to get wet. If you enjoy being at the front of the catamaran, I would recommend a swimsuit, as you'll probably get wet. Also, if you choose the Friday night catamaran, just be aware that fireworks are only about 10 minutes long at around 7:45pm.

Otherwise, this is a must, enjoy it!

I signed up for this cruise because I wanted to experience the best sunset on the last day. The waves were rolling right in front of me, sparkling and creating an incredible atmosphere. The weather was also perfect, allowing for an emotional sunset. I think it's definitely better than being on a cruise ship. I will participate in this again next time.

最終日に最高のサンセットに出合いたくてこのクルーズに申し込みました。波が目の前でうねりキラキラ輝いていて臨場感が半端ないです。天気も最高によかったので感動的なサンセットが見れました。クルーズ船より断然いいと思います。次回もこれには参加すると思います。
