All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

My partner and me really enjoyed on this cruise. Beautiful dinner, very helpful friendly crew and could see romantic sunset. I have joined this cruise 3rd times. every time never have any disappoint!! We are middle age couple. this cruise is great for family, girls group, boys group, big group, young people and old people everyone as well!!

My wife and I had a great time on the sunset cruise. Made some great new friends form Germany and Australia, and the drinks kept comin'! We would recomment this one to anyone looking for fun on the water. It's a little more than some others, but that helps keep the kids away. If you are looking for a booze cruise without the screaming children, this is the one!

it was my first time went on the dinner cruise since I live in Hawaii for 20 years, I really enjoy the steak and loster dinner, the workers were very friendly and helpful, that made me feel like I was having a family dinner with my family. The manager name Joey especially came serveral times to visit us and made sure everything was okay, we have a great time in Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner cruise!!!

Great time. My daughter got sea sicked but other than we had a lot of fun.

The main purpose of this trip was to finally see the Royal Hawaiian Luau show, which I had to sadly forgo during my last visit to Hawaii due to not being able to make a reservation.

Among all the luau shows I've seen, this one had the content I wanted to see the most, and the dancing was wonderful. (I personally take hula lessons, so I wanted to see the dancers up close and observe their movements and steps!)

Typically, when comparing the ratio of hula to Tahitian dance in luau shows, there tends to be more Tahitian. However, this show had a higher proportion of hula (both Kahiko and Auana), making it a must-see for hula dancers. The outdoor setting, with Diamond Head and the ocean as the backdrop, was also fantastic.

I would love to go again! However, since the interactions and story are presented in English, a good command of the language is essential...

前回、ハワイに行った際に予約が取れず、泣く泣く断念したロイヤルハワイアンのルアウショーを見に出かけるのが、今回の旅の１番の目的でした。
今まで見てきたルアウショーの中で一番、自分自身が見たかった内容で踊りも素晴らしかったです。（自分自身がフラを習っており、ダンサーの踊る姿やステップを踏む姿が間近で見たかったのです！）

普通、ルアウショーだとフラとタヒチアンの割合を比較するとタヒチアンの方が多いのですが、こちらはフラの割合（カヒコ・アウアナ）が高く、フラダンサーには必見な内容だと思います。
屋外で、かつダイヤモンドヘッドと海を背景なんて、ロケーションも素晴らしかったです。
また見に行きたいと思います！
しかしながら…英語で会場のやり取りやストーリーが展開されるので、語学力が必須かと。。。

I was able to see the whale's tail for a moment. It seems that it's quite rare to see them in the way depicted in photos. The scenery alone is enjoyable enough. Spotting whales depends on luck.

鯨の尻尾が一瞬ですが、みれました。　なかなか写真のような姿は見れないようです。景色だけでも十分楽しめます。鯨は運に左右されます。

Very nice boat and crew. Good drinks but would have preferred an open bar like the Island Magic. Delightful sail. Would do again.

Delightful evening sail with an open bar. It was FUN and a gorgeous sail. Loved the crew. Great job guys!

We had a better time than expected. My daughter got motion sickness but everyone had a great time.

Waikiki was the destination of our honeymoon and a Fireworks Cocktail Cruise sounded perfect! I didn't anticipate how DARK it would be when arriving to the boat. It should have been obvious...but I didn't think about it. It was cumbersome to board the boat due to the tide and needing to board from another area a catamaran had left from. This meant we had to walk over a concrete divide that had been slightly eroded to access the ship. Was a little tricky.
The staff for the event was great. Full of energy and kept everyone informed of what was happening. The boat was full of happy tourists ready to party. Drinks flowed quickly and if you were adept enough to weave through the crowd in bobbing waves--there was not problem in accessing beverages. Since it was super dark, it was hard to see how to get around the boat. We unfortunately sat by the toilet on deck which was hysterical. It basically was a clear plastic top that opened and you climbed down stairs that felt like a propped up ladder. Inside it was really tight to move (duh, it's a catamaran). My husband said he didn't know how women would actually use it if they needed to sit. Best of all was---since it was so dark, the only light you could see was from the toilet; and if you were down there...EVERYONE could look down and see you. It was one of my favorite take-aways from the experience.

Overall the cruise was fun, staff was great, and drinks were solid. Hard part is having only a few minutes of fireworks...and then floating around in the dark with a boombox and sitting next to the bathroom.

If I was to book a cocktail cruise again...I'd choose the happy hour to enjoy the sunset.

Crew was great, they treated you like long time friends.
The drinks were awesome and not the watered down ones you get with other all you can drink tours. Part of the fun was getting on and off the boat.
Only negative comment was that the head had a see through hatch, but I would do this trip again. I highly recommend this sail trip.

We had a wonderful time. Beautiful cruise. Do not waste your time with the additional City Lights tour, though. Better to drive on your own to see these.

My family enjoyed this beautiful state
Park.
So beautiful. Peacful

Absolutely recommended!!!!!!!

Last time (last year) it was canceled due to a hurricane. This was my second try.

The boat was full. I think there were about 40 people on board. Japanese was not spoken. There was one other group of Japanese guests, probably.

I was worried about seasickness (I usually get seasick easily), but no problem!!!

I enjoyed the view of Waikiki from the sea,

and then,

I was so excited by the sea, the rainbow, the dolphins, and the sunset that I couldn't focus on anything else^^

The Mai Tai was close to orange juice, but I had three cups. I think this amount is just right. If it were stronger in alcohol, I would probably get seasick.

The cocktails were only Mai Tai. There were other juices available.

Anyway, I was moved by the sea, the rainbow, the dolphins, and the sunset. The dolphins seemed to be playing with the boat in groups.

I want to ride again next time!!!

Without a doubt, it's a hall of fame experience.

絶対オススメ！！！！！！！

前回（去年）申込時に、ハリケーンで中止に。
再度のトライでした。

船は、満員。40名位乗ってたんじゃないかと思います。
日本語は、通じません。
日本人のお客さんも他1組、多分。

船酔いを気にしてましたが（普段酔いやすいタイプです）
ノープロブレム！！！

ワイキキを海から眺め、

そして、

海と虹とイルカと夕陽に
興奮でそれどころじゃなかったです^^

マイタイは、オレンジジュースに近かったけれど、3杯飲みました。
多分このくらいが良いのでしょう。
アルコール強めだと船酔いしちゃうでしょうね。

カクテルは、マイタイのみ。
他はジュースがありました。

とにかく、海と虹とイルカと夕陽に感動。
イルカは群れになって船とじゃれあってるみたいでした。

次もまた乗りたい！！！

間違いなく、殿堂入りです。

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii. This time, I visited for my niece's wedding, and a friend recommended that I definitely check it out! Elvis, Gaga, Michael Jackson... it was so much fun! The dinner, which even included lobster, was satisfying for the price! I also enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the night streets! I highly recommend it for those who want to relax on Oahu!

６度目のハワイ。今回は姪の結婚式での訪問だったので、友人に「絶対いいよ！」と薦められて観させていただきました。エルビス、ガガ、マイケルジャクソン。。。おもしろかった！楽しかった！ロブスターまであったディナーもあのお値段にしては満足です(^^♪
のんびり散歩しながら夜の街も満喫できました！
オワフ島でのんびりしたい方にはおすすめです！

WE LOVED THE BEACH AND MY GRANDCHILDREN ENJOYED SNORKELING

The singer came up to the audience, and there was a lot of excitement with handshakes and more. I participated in the cocktail show, which included one drink, and I was able to order various cocktails. The venue was easy to see from my seat, which was in a great location, and I had a wonderful time. The photo opportunity after the show was also nice.

シンガーが客席に上がって、握手など大変盛り上がりました。カクテルショーに参加でしたが、ドリンク１パイ付でしたが、いろいろなカクテルを頼めて、ショー会場も見やすく、席もいいところで、大変楽しかったです。ショー後の、記念写真タイムも良かったです。

There were six participants in total, including my husband and me, along with four foreigners. The snorkeling was at a depth of about 7 to 8 meters. I wore a 2mm wetsuit, and the water felt quite cold, but it was an incredibly happy experience to swim alongside the large honu (sea turtles) while leisurely gliding through the water. In addition to the honu, I was surrounded by many black fish. My husband, who is not a strong swimmer, enjoyed sailing on the boat, but he was satisfied because he could also see the honu coming up for air from the boat! The staff was kind and friendly as well.

参加者は私たち夫婦と外国の方４名の計６名。シュノーケリングは水深7～8Ｍ程のところでしょうか。私は２ミリのウエット着用でしたがけっこう水は冷たくかんじましたが、スイスイの～んびり泳ぐ大きなホヌと一緒に泳くことができとっても幸せな体験でした。ホヌのほかにたくさんの黒い魚にも囲まれました。泳ぎのニガテな主人は船上でセイリングを楽しむだけでしたが、ホヌも息継ぎのために時々顔をだすので船の上からでもみることができ満足！とのこと。スタッフも親切で良い方でした。

I arrived in Honolulu and went shopping at Ala Moana before heading out! However, the trolley didn't come at all, and I ended up being late. I thought, "Oh no!!" but since this was my fifth time in Hawaii, I knew where the meeting point was, so I got off the bus and sprinted! They were waiting for me. The breeze felt nice, the ocean was beautiful, and the calm atmosphere made me truly appreciate Hawaii. Everyone, starting with the captain, was fun, and we enjoyed snacks while chatting over juice; the hour flew by. On the day of arrival, I was able to fully enjoy Hawaii at a leisurely pace, which was fantastic.

ホノルルに到着し、アラモアナでショッピングしてから出発！が、なんとトローリーが全く来なくて遅刻してしまいました。アウト！！と思ったけれどハワイ5回目の私は、集合場所がわかっていたため、バス停を降り全力疾走！！！ちゃんと待っていてくれました。風が気持ちよく、海が綺麗、穏やかな時間がハワイを実感させてくれました。キャプテンを始めみんな楽しい人達で、ジュースを飲みながらスナックのお菓子を食べ、楽しいトークであっという間の１時間でした。到着日は、ゆっくりハワイを満喫でき最高でした。

Unfortunately, we were not blessed with good weather and couldn't see the sunset. However, I had a wonderful time with a Mai Tai in hand off the coast of Waikiki Beach! I definitely want to join again next time!!!

残念ながらお天気に恵まれずサンセットを見ることはできませんでした。。が、ワイキキビーチ沖でマイタイ片手にとても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました！！次回またぜひ参加したいです！！！

The meeting place is hard to find. If you're coming along the coast, you need to be careful or you might pass it by. Even if you arrive at 8:15 for the 8:15 meeting, the receptionist will ask you to wait, and you'll end up waiting until 8:30 when check-in starts. But all of that was okay because of the double rainbow I saw while walking there.

Surfing itself was a lot of fun. I knew about the photos from this review, but I was surprised when they suddenly asked me to pose without any prior notice. I signed up for a semi-private session, but it ended up being private, and I was able to catch many waves, which made me very satisfied.

集合場所がわかりにくい。海岸沿いを通ってくる方は
注意ぶかく見ないと通り過ぎます。
8:15集合で到着しても受付のお姉さんに待ってと言われ
結局受付開始の8:30まで待つことになる。
それもこれも歩いて向かってる時のダブルレインボーでまぁいいかと。

サーフィン自体はとても楽しかった。
写真のことはこの口コミみて知っていたけど急に何のはなしもなくポーズをしてと言われ
撮られるのでびっくりした。。
セミプライベートで申し込みしたが結果プライベートとなり、何本も立つことが出来て
大満足です。

When I went for the first time two years ago, the impersonator of Steven Tyler was so impressive that this time, my expectations were higher, resulting in an average rating.

二年前に初めて行った時の、スティーヴン・タイラーの物まねの人の
完成度が高すぎて、期待した分、今回は平均的な評価になりました。

The show was impressive and very enjoyable. I rated it four stars because it was hot and sunny until sunset, but the service was very pleasant, as they offered drinks to the kids and provided two leis. The buffet was delicious and catered to Japanese tastes, so I even had some sushi that I wouldn't typically eat in Hawaii. I would love to participate again.

迫力あるショーでとても楽しかったです。
日没まで、日が当たり暑かったので、星4つにしましたが、ドリンクを子供にサービスしてくれたり、レイを二つ掛けてくれたりと、とても感じの良い接客でした。
ビュッフェもおいしく、日本人好みの味だったので、ハワイで食べない海苔巻も頂きました。
また参加したいです。

The boat was nice and the buffet was fair, but the entertainment went down hill fast. The evening started with Hula dancers tat were very good and entertaining, but once the Japanese guitarist took over and started singing contemporary pop music, I couldn't get out of the cabin fast enough...And he went on, and on...and on. It was as if they were intentionally trying to chase us outside. Painful.

sunset was beautiful, staff was friendly and fun, music was great, and drinks were strong! loved it!

This was my third time. The catamaran had changed to a new one. Unfortunately, the netting was disappointing and brought my mood down. The previous one had a mesh design that felt like you were gliding over the sea when you sat down, which was fantastic, but now it was just a series of holes, and I couldn't enjoy that refreshing feeling. However, my friend who joined me was experiencing it for the first time and had a great time. They were very happy and said they definitely want to ride again, so I give it four stars.

今回で3度目でした　カタマランが新しく変わってました　ネットが残念なことになっていてテンションさがりました　前のは網状でスケスケで座ると海の上を滑ってるかのようですっごく良かったのですがただの穴ぷつぷつあいたものになっていてあの爽快感が味わえませんでした　でも一緒に参加した友達は初めての体験でしたのでとても楽しんでました　またぜひ乗りたいと大喜びでした　ので星４つです

Sailing and snorkeling was really cool the boat is really nice and the ones in charge are funny and in good spirit

Very good experience had a great time, very good food, great crew

We loved snorkeling at Hanauma Bay! We could see fish all around us in waist-deep water, and even though it was busy, there was plenty of space to have our own experience. The food in the snack bar was good (although a little pricey), and I liked that we could rent life jackets and stoppers for our snorkels from the company once we got there. Just make sure you bring extra money for the entrance fee, tram (it saves a lot of uphill walking), equipment rental, and food. You can also bring food on the beach, so pack some snacks and water to save some cash.

The cruise was good, the weather, not so much. The captain and bartender were very friendly, and entertaining.
