All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

I joined because I wanted to ride on a yacht. The weather was decent, so it wasn't too rocky, making it comfortable and refreshing. Luckily, we encountered a group of dolphins, and they followed our boat for a while, allowing us to see them up close! I would love to join again. I highly recommend it! ♪

ヨットに乗りたくて参加しました。天気もまあまあだったからあまり揺れなかったので快適、爽快。ラッキーなことにイルカのグループに会えて、しばらく私たちが乗った船についてきたので間近にイルカたちを見ることができました！また参加したいです。おすすめです♪

The buffet-style meal featured a menu that was very much in line with Hawaiian cuisine, and I was delighted to be able to try items that I probably wouldn't have had the chance to enjoy during my stay. Additionally, there were whole pineapples and a welcome drink service with Mai Tai, which made it a lot of fun. I also had the rare opportunity to see hula dancing up close during the meal, which was a precious experience. We visited for our honeymoon, and I was thrilled that there was a ukulele performance at each table.

The show after dinner was more authentic and spectacular than I had imagined, and it was truly moving! I had wondered how the combination of hula and rock would work, but it turned out to be a wonderful show where both styles matched beautifully, allowing us to have a very enjoyable time. In particular, the performances that traced history evoked a sense of nostalgia and were wonderfully structured to captivate the audience. I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

ビュッフェ形式のお食事は、ハワイらしいメニューになっており、意外と滞在中に口にする機会のなさそうなものを頂くことができ、嬉しかったです。また、まるごとのパイナップルや、ウェルカムドリンクでマイタイのサービスなどもあり、とても楽しめました。また、お食事中にフラダンスを間近で見ることができ、貴重な時間でした。新婚旅行で伺いましたが、席ごとにウクレレの演奏もしていただき、嬉しかったです。

お食事後のショーは想像していたよりも本格的で、華やかで感動しました！
フラダンスとロックの組み合わせはどんなだろう？と思っていましたが、両者の良さが見事にマッチした素晴らしいショーになっており、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。特に、歴史を辿るような演出は懐かしさも感じられ、人を惹きつける素晴らしい構成になっているなと思いました。
機会があればまた訪れたいです。

It was a lively and energetic performance by the Frat Show that really pulled you in.

When I arrived before the opening time, there was already a long line, and everyone seemed to be eagerly anticipating the ball party.

The performances by the carefully selected dancers were impressive and made for a truly enjoyable festive moment.

Thank you very much.

ご機嫌のノリとグイグイ引っ張る熱量のフラ・ショーでした。

開場時間前に到着したところ、すでに大行列で、みなさん、お待ちかねのボールパーティーのようでした。

厳選されたダンサーの方々のパフォーマンスは見応え抜群、楽しい祝祭のひとときでした。

ありがとうございました。

Sadly due to traffic I missed the boat by a minute I had checked how long it would take to get there when planning my leave time and I was quoted 45 every time when I was staying only 25 miles away however traffic was crazy and it ended up being an hour and a half drive we pulled into parking at exactly 1745 and the boat was pulling out as I was running to it. Gave a rating of Good because the boat left exactly on time and if I had been on board that would have been great

The sunset was amazing, but the captain's talk was also fantastic and really lively. It became a wonderful memory, and I'm glad I participated. Also, the purple sweet potato burger was very delicious. Which shop was it from? Thank you very much.

サンセットも最高でしたが
キャプテンのトークも最高でとても盛り上がっていました。
素敵な思い出になり参加してよかったです。
そして、紫芋？？のハンバーガーがとてもおいしかった。
どこのショップのものなのでしょうか？？
ありがとうございました。

Overall, we enjoyed the trip. Staff was great! However, the snorkel spot was crowded with lots of other groups. It felt like you were bumping into people the whole time. We saw some turtles, but there wasn't much else to see. Also, the parking instructions are unclear. All it said was they validate in the garage, so I parked in the obvious giant garage. But they don't validate in that one (the Hale Koa). They only validate in the Hilton Garage which is harder to find. I hope they aren't unclear on purpose...that cost an extra $39!

My wife and I attended the luau show. Before the show started, there were several events prepared, and we had a great time. At the same table, a couple from the mainland talked to us, and we had a nice interaction. The show was also very impressive and enjoyable. Thank you very much.

家内と2人でルアウショーに参加致しました。
ショーが始まる前に幾つかイベントも用意されていて楽しく過ごせました。
同じテーブルではメインランドから来たご夫婦が話しかけてくださり、良い交流もできました。
ショーも大迫力で楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

There were few Japanese people, and both the captain and the co-captain spoke only English. The captain only spoke with those he wanted to talk to and did not engage with us Japanese guests at all. The female co-captain was very friendly and spoke to everyone. The sailing offered the best views!

At the end, I intended to give a tip, but I wasn't prepared to give it to both of them, so it ended up being less than expected. The captain made a sarcastic remark about it in a loud voice. I apologize for not being prepared, as I didn't know that a tip for both was necessary, but it left me feeling very disappointed after such a wonderful sailing experience. If it weren't for that captain, I would want to participate again. I highly recommend this activity, but I think it's best to prepare tips for both before boarding.

日本人は少なく、キャプテンも、副キャプテンも
英語のみです。キャプテンはご自身の話したい方とだけ話されていました。日本人の私達とは全く話していません。副キャプテンの女性は、皆に話しかけて下さりとても感じが良かったです。セーリングは
最高の景色でした☆
最後にチップをお渡しするのですが、2人にお渡しする様に準備が出来ておらず、少なくなってしまいました。それをキャプテンから、大きな声で嫌味を言われました。2人分のチップが必要だと知らず
準備不足なこちらも申し訳無かったですが、せっかくの素敵なセーリングが、とても残念な気持ちになりました。あのキャプテンでなければ、また参加したいです。とてもおすすめなアクティビティですが、チップを2人分ご準備されて乗船されると良いと思います。

A helicopter tour around Oahu in winter.
From Waikiki Beach to Diamond Head, through Hanauma Bay to Lanikai, and then to the North Shore.
We were able to capture surfers riding the big waves at the North Shore perfectly!
My advice is to definitely dress warmly and to eat lightly before participating to avoid motion sickness.
There are two seats next to the pilot, which are ideal for video and photo shooting. I highly recommend you experience this.
The price is high, but considering the experience, it's not expensive.

冬のオアフ島をヘリで一周。
ワイキキビーチからダイヤモンドヘッド、ハナウマ湾からラニカイを経てノースショアへ。
ノースショアの大波を乗りこなすサーファーもばっちり撮影できました！
アドバイスは、必ず暖かい服装で参加することと、
参加前は食事を控えめにすること。乗り物酔いを避けられます。
操縦者の横、２席ありますが、ここが動画、写真撮影に最適です。ぜひぜひ、体験してみてください。
値段は高いけど、内容からすると高くないです。

I had never experienced such a rainy trip during the rainy season in Hawaii in December. Since the last day was also forecasted to be rainy, I made a last-minute reservation with Veltra the night before.

At the dinner buffet, we were seated near some Japanese guests, which allowed us to take photos and enjoy conversations together. It was amazing to see the hula dance up close during the meal.

Although we didn't have the top-tier tickets for the show venue, we were close to the stage and it was exhilarating! Elvis came right up to us, and we even got to shake hands. Unfortunately, the scarf was given to someone at the next table... Even though we aren't very good at English, we were able to enjoy the stage thoroughly and would love to come back.

It's definitely not a cheap option, but I think it's worth seeing at least once.

Thank you for the precious time!

12月雨季の中のハワイ旅行、こんなに雨に降られた旅行はありませんでした。
最終日も雨予報だったので、前日夜にveltraさんで急遽予約をして参加しました。

ディナーブュッフェでは、日本人の方を近くに配置していただいたので、お互いに写真を撮ったり会話を楽しんだり出来ました。
食事中には間近でフラダンスを見れ最高でした。

ショー会場も最上ランクのチケットではありませんでしたがステージに近く大興奮！
エルビスが目の前まできてくれ握手もできました。残念ながらスカーフは隣の席の方にプレゼントされましたが…
英語がそんなに得意ではない私たちでも十分楽しめるステージで、またきたいと思いました。
決して安くないオプショナルですが一見の価値はあると思います。

貴重な時間をありがとうございました

I couldn't see any fish, let alone sea turtles. Everyone got bored and quickly went back on the boat, just cruising for the remaining time. It wasn't interesting, and I was freezing. The best memory was seeing a wild seal on the beach before getting on the boat. I'm disappointed.

ウミガメどころか、魚もろくに見えませんでした。
みんなつまんないから早々に船に上がり、あと残った時間クルージングしてるだけです。面白くもないし、寒くて仕方ありませんでした。
船に乗る前に砂浜で野生のアザラシを見れたのが1番な思い出でした。がっかり。

This time it was a trip with my wife, but during the last company trip, we stayed in Waikiki to participate in the Honolulu Marathon in 2017. We enjoyed the show back then, so I made a reservation to show it to my wife. On the day of the show, we added the buffet, but we were seated at the edge, and since it started to rain a little, we got wet. When I looked towards Sky Waikiki, I saw a big rainbow, and it was a very lucky day.
The show was consistently enjoyable, but I felt that MJ seemed a bit tired and chubby, and his movements lacked sharpness. Haha.

今回妻との旅行でしたが、前回会社の旅行で2017年のホノルルマラソンに参加する為、ワイキキに宿泊。その時に今回のショーを見て楽しかったので、妻に見せたいと思い予約をしました。当日ブュッフェをつけましたが端っこの席で、少し雨が降って来た為、濡れてしまいました。ふとスカイワイキキの方向を見ると大きな虹が見えて、とてもラッキーな日でした。
ショーは安定の楽しさでしたが、MJが少し疲れたのか、ぽっちゃりしていて、動きにキレがなかったように感じました。笑笑

All three of us were surfing for the first time, and there were people from various countries in the same group lesson. Since my family was the only Japanese group, I felt a bit lonely at first, but we had one instructor dedicated to just the three of us, and he was fluent in Japanese, so we were able to enjoy surfing without any worries. I would like to try again when I go to Hawaii. The water was clear, the sky was blue, and we had the best time.

３人とも初めてのサーフィンで、さまざまな国の方々が同じグループのレッスンに参加されており、日本人は私の家族だけだったので、最初は少し心細く感じていましたが、私たち３人に１人の先生が専任でついて下さり、先生も日本語が堪能な方でしたので、なんの心配もなくサーフィンを楽しむことができました。またハワイに出かけたら、再度チャレンジしてみたいと思います。
水もきれいで、空も青く、最高の時間を過ごすことができました。

The food wasn't very delicious. The guidance wasn't very good either. It felt like a conveyor-belt type of service. I felt a bit left out. I understand that the dishes are served on one plate, but it was disappointing that everything was mixed together. The show was good, though.

食事があまり美味しくなかったかな。案内があまりよろしくなかった。流れ作業で案内。ちょっとおいてけぼり感がありました。料理もワンプレートはわかりますが、みんないっしょにごちゃ混ぜ状態になって残念。ショーはよかったよ

Everything was great. The hosts of the boat were all very personable and very friendly with a good sense of humor! Their mai tais were GREAT, I don't care for mai tais because of the dark rum but they do theirs differently and i loved their drinks. Very calming, good music and great drinks. I would definitely do this again

I wasn't sure which restaurant to choose, so having this kind of guidance was helpful. The food was delicious as well.

どこの店を選べば良いか分からなかったので、こういう案内があると助かります。
食事も美味しかったです。

Since it was our wedding anniversary trip as a couple, we decided to splurge a little and got a massage on the day we arrived. It was our first time using this place, but it was easy to find, and we didn't get lost. We received a couples massage together, which was great because we could enjoy it simultaneously through the curtain. After being cramped in economy seats, the massage helped loosen up our bodies and put us in travel mode. However, since it was quite a distance from our hotel and we had to walk a lot right after arriving, I ended up cramping my legs a few times during the treatment. The staff was very accommodating each time I made a fuss about it, and I really appreciated that. I was able to enjoy my time without any shoulder pain or headaches. Getting a massage on the day of arrival is definitely a good idea.

夫婦での結婚記念日旅行なので少し奮発して到着日にマッサージを受けました。初めて利用する場所でしたが、場所も分かりやすく迷わず行けました。夫婦でカップルマッサージを受けたのでカーテン越しに同時に受けることができよかったです。エコノミーの座席で窮屈な思いをした身体をほぐしていただき　体が旅行モードになりました。ただ、自分たちのホテルから距離があり　到着した途端に結構な距離を歩いたせいか施術中に数回足がつってしまい　大騒ぎな私にその都度対応していただきました。感謝です。肩こりもなく頭痛もなく過ごせました。到着日のマッサージは良いですね。

[Before Boarding]
- The office had a restroom and a shop (selling original T-shirts, etc.).
- Before boarding, there was a camera check, and they reinforced it with zip ties to prevent it from falling. My companion was lent a GoPro handheld stick for free.
- I wore glasses and boarded as is, but my companion, who wore contact lenses, was offered sunglasses for free (with three options to choose from) to protect their eyes.
- Other carry-on luggage was handed over at the counter, and I received a key for a free locker.

[After Flight]
- I handed over the locker key and received my luggage over the counter.
- I was offered footage taken by the staff during the flight, but it wasn't pushy, and I left without purchasing anything (the footage I took myself from the first-class seat next to the cockpit is more memorable).

【搭乗前】
・事務所にはトイレと売店（オリジナルＴシャツなど）がありました。
・搭乗前にカメラのチェックがあり、落下しないよう結束バンドで補強してくれました。同伴者はGoProのハンドヘルドスティックを無償で貸してもらいました。
・眼鏡着用の私はそのまま搭乗しましたが、コンタクトレンズ着用の同伴者には目を保護するためにサングラスの無償貸与（３つから選択）がありました。
・カメラ以外の手荷物はカウンターで手渡し、無償ロッカーのキーを受け取りました。
【飛行後】
・ロッカーのキーを手渡し、カウンター越しに手荷物を受け取りました。
・同乗スタッフが撮影した飛行中の映像を斡旋されましたが、強引なものではなく、何も買わずに帰りました（ファーストクラス席＝操縦席横で自ら撮影した映像の方が思い出になるので）。

The fireworks at the Hilton on Friday lasted about 10 minutes. The Mai Tai cruise offered unlimited cocktails, and I had three cocktails, but they made them without a hint of annoyance. The night view was great, and since it was the end of the year, it was a bit cold, so you might need long sleeves.

金曜日ヒルトンの花火は10分くらいで終わりました。マイタイ号はカクテル等飲み放題でわたくしはカクテル3杯飲みましたが、嫌な顔ひとつせず作ってくれました。
夜景がいいのはもちろん年末だったので、少し寒いので、長袖は要るかも。

What an evening to celebrate an anniversary! Fabulous food and performers.

I have reserved a departure at 11:00.
There is a sign for the boarding area on the beach, so I think it will be easy to find.
After arriving, please confirm your name at the check-in counter, and then it's time to board.

The view of Waikiki from the ocean is wonderful.
Before departure, I requested to scatter my father's ashes during the cruise.
I was very grateful for the staff's thoughtfulness.

My father must be happy in heaven as well.

11:00出船を予約しました。
ビーチに乗り場の看板がありますので、すぐにわかると思います。
到着後はチェックインカウンターで名前を確認してもらい、いよいよ乗船。

沖から見るワイキキの景色は、素晴らしいです。
出発前にお願いをして、クルーズ中に父の散骨をさせていただきました。
スタッフさんの心遣いが大変嬉しかったです。

父も天国で喜んでくれているはずです。

This was my first experience in Hawaii. The food was a buffet with a variety of Hawaiian dishes, and there were even desserts. There was also a performance during the meal, which was fantastic.

After the meal, we moved to watch a show, and it was very moving. I think it's worth experiencing at least once if you come to Hawaii. Lastly, we were able to greet the performers and take photos with them, which was fun.

Time flew by, but I believe it's a tour that can be utilized effectively.

初めてのハワイでの体験です。
ご飯はビュッフェでハワイのいろんな料理が食べれてデザートまでありました。
また食事中にパフォーマンスもあって最高でした。

食事後移動してショーを見ましたがとても感動しました。ハワイにきたなら一度体験してみる価値があると思います。
最後にグリーティングもできて出演者と写真も撮れて楽しかったです。

時間があっという間に過ぎましたが有効活用できるツアーだと思います。

For two hours, my feet hurt a little, but I enjoyed the Hawaiian sun, blue sky, and breeze. I heard it was a rare sunny day, and I was blessed with great weather for a wonderful experience.

２時間、少し足の裏がいたくなりましたが、ハワイの太陽と青空そして風にのって、楽しく過ぎていきました。久しぶりに晴天になった日と聞き、天候にも恵まれて素晴らしい体験ができました。

Loved this funky yellow catamaran. The people were very helpful. It was my 2 nd time snorkeling and was really nervous about swimming in the ocean. Dillan was great life guard also gave me an extra float so that I feel more secure.
The views the music the drinks and the people were fantastic on this catamaran.
I would highly recommend this tour.
Only recommendation is to probably do the morning cruise as we spotted only 1 sea turtle which was very still. At the very bottom of the ocean floor and extremely few fishes.
Infact we saw more fishes at the sand box.
I would highly recommend it because we had a blast in this trip. It was my husbands 50th birthday and he loved it.

As for my impressions, I think it's good for those who want to experience entertainment like in Las Vegas or Los Angeles while in Hawaii. I was looking forward to the shows in Hawaii, so I was a bit disappointed in some aspects, but since I enjoy entertainment, I was able to have a decent time. Given the weak yen, I thought the prices were quite high. However, since it was Christmas Day, the venue was nearly full with a capacity of 750.

First, after checking in, we were guided to the buffet area. The VIP guests started their meals first. It was crowded, which made it a bit cramped, but they guided us patiently in order, and we were able to enjoy plenty of food. The park, beef, and tofu were all delicious.

We watched a light hula dance and listened to ukulele music, and there was also dessert time. After the meal, we moved to the hall where the entertainment show began. The show could be seen beautifully from any seat, so I don't think it's a problem if you're not in a VIP seat. I was a little envious that VIP guests received fresh flower leis.

Overall, the meal was delicious and enjoyable, and with the show included, I was able to spend a fun time.

感想としては、ハワイでラスベガスやロサンゼルスなどのエンターテイメントを観たい、体験したい方には良いかと思います。私は、ハワイのショーを楽しみにしていたので、少しガッカリな部分もありましたが、エンターテイメントは好きなので、それなりに楽しめました。円安ということもあり、かなりお値段も高いと思いました。でも、クリスマスの日だったとこもあり、750定員満席に近かったです。
まず、受付をするとビュッフェ会場に案内されます。ビュッフェ会場は、VIPの人が先に食事を始めていました。満席だったので、窮屈感もありましたが、順番に丁寧に案内してくれ、料理も十分に食べれました。パークもビーフも豆腐も美味しかったです。
軽いフラのダンスを観たり、ウクレレを聞いたりして、デザートタイムもありました。
食後、ホールに移動して、エンターテイメントのショーが開始されました。ショーは、どの席でも綺麗に観られるので、VIP席出なくても問題ないかと思います。
VIP席だと、生花のレイが貰えてちょっぴり羨ましかったです。
全体的に食時も美味しく、楽しく、ショーも付いていて、楽しいひと時を過ごすことが出来ました。

I made a reservation for 33 people for Christmas. Since there were so many of us, we considered chartering a boat, but having a DJ definitely made it more exciting! The food was allowed to be brought in, and there were Japanese staff members who were very accommodating. I'm glad we chose the DJ cruise! Please be careful as you can't bring in soft drinks.

クリスマスに33人で予約しました。人数が多かったのでチャーター船にしようか迷いましたが、やっぱりDJが居た方が盛り上がりました！
食事も持ち込みOKで日本人のスタッフさんも居て柔軟に対応して下さいました。DJクルーズを選んで良かったです！
飲み物はソフトドリンクも持ち込み出来ないので気をつけて下さい。

this was the best 1st day in waikiki activity you can do .
the crew were fantastic and very entertaining . my daughter said she has a new dad called Amos ! he was charming
thank you again for a wonderful afternoon.
highly recommend .

The pre-experience explanatory video had Japanese subtitles, and the instructors spoke Japanese, so it was not a problem if you are not fluent in English! The practical instructions were clear, and I was able to get on the board right away. There were three of us participating, but since there were two instructors, they provided guidance tailored to each participant's level, allowing us to have a meaningful experience. For those who were capable, they encouraged us to try new things, like riding the waves alongside the instructors or going out to where the big waves were. For those who were less experienced, they offered experiences in areas with moderate waves, and if someone wanted to try the big waves, they made it possible!

体験前の事前説明動画は日本語字幕があり、インストラクターの方も日本語が話せる方だったので英語が上手でなくても問題ないです！
実践もわかりやすく説明してくださり、すぐにボードに乗ることができました。3人での体験となりましたが、インストラクターの方が2名いたので体験者のレベルに合わせてインストラクターの方が指示してくれ、有意義な時間が過ごせました。出来る人にはどんどん新しいことも体験させてくれ、インストラクターの方と一緒に（隣に並んで）波に乗ったり、大きな波がある沖にいったりもしました。不慣れな人には中くらいの波のところで体験や、本人が大きな波にトライしたかったら、体験させてくれたりと、、！！

The show and entertainment were wonderful, and I was captivated until the end. I was especially moved by Elvis Presley, John Lennon, and most of all, Hawaii's representative singer, IZ.

However, I was disappointed with the initial meal and the staff. The guidance was insufficient, and the meal took too long, leaving us with too much time before the show without any food. I felt that the premium seats were better. Additionally, most of the staff did not speak Japanese, which felt a bit rude, especially considering that even though there are fewer Japanese people due to the post-COVID situation. I ended up taking home one of the two free drink tickets without using it, and the service seemed to prioritize Americans, leaving a bad aftertaste.

ショー、エンターティメントは素晴らしく、最後まで惹きつけられました。
エルビスプレスリーにジョンレノン、何よりハワイの代表的なシンガーのIZは感激しました。
さてがっかりなのは最初の食事とスタッフです。
案内も不十分で、食事も
時間かけすぎでショーまで時間持て余し、食事無しで
プレミアム席が良いと感じました。
あとスタッフほとんど日本語通じず、いくらコロナ明けで日本人少なくてもちょっと失礼と感じました。
2回のフリードリンクチケットも１枚使わずに持って帰り、アメリカ人優先の案内に見え後味悪いです

The location is on the 4th floor of the Waikiki Royal Hawaiian Center, and I arrived without any trouble. I was welcomed with a welcome drink (Mai Tai cocktail), and they played a Sukiyaki song and a birthday song on the ukulele at my table. The dinner buffet featured traditional Hawaiian dishes, with plenty on the plate and unlimited refills; it was very delicious. I was particularly impressed by the thickness of the roast beef they served. During the meal, there was a hula show, and I was able to participate in a hula lesson as well. After that, there was a "look-alike show" (rock) featuring Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, representing America, which was of high quality and enjoyable across generations. The authentic hula, Polynesian show, and fire dance brought the show to its peak, and the excitement from the foreign tourists was wonderful; the fun was at its maximum. It was a time that filled both my stomach and my heart.

場所はワイキキ・ロイヤルハワイアンセンター４階、迷わず到着しました。
ウエルカムドリンク（マイタイカクテル）でお迎えしていただき、ウクレレですき焼きソングやbirthdayソングも席にて奏でて頂きました。ディナービュッフェはハワイ伝統料理など、お皿に盛り沢山、おかわり自由、とても美味しく
特に切り分けてくれたローストビーフの厚さに感激しました。食事中のフラショー、そしてフラレッスンにも参加出来ました。その後日本で俗にいう「そっくりさんショー」（ロック）アメリカを代表するエルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンはクオリティが高く世代を超えて楽しむことができます。本場のフラ・ポリネシアンショーとファイアーダンスでショーは最高潮、外人観光客の盛り上がり方が素晴らしく、楽しさはMAXでした。お腹と心（ハート）が満たされた時間でした
