Oahu
I rented a car to get there. There were fewer people, so I was able to enjoy almost all the attractions without much waiting. There weren't many Japanese people, but there were a few here and there. There weren't many places to eat. It was a bit disappointing that we had to carry our own floaties and such.
レンタカーを借りて行きました。
人は少なめで、どのアトラクションもほとんど並ばずに楽しむことができました。
日本人の人も多くなかったですが、ちらほらいました。
食べるところはそのほどなかったです。
浮き輪等を自分で運ぶ必要があり、その点は少し残念でした。
Aloha Hiroo,
Thank you for your feedback.
Aloha Hiroo様、
ご意見を頂き有難うございました。
I thought I didn't need any of the options, so this tour with just transportation and admission tickets was perfect. As I mentioned in the title, there were only children and their families, but I would recommend it to adults who love roller coasters as well. There are sliders with angles that are unimaginable in Japan. However, I almost got whiplash, so please be careful about that.
オプションはどれもいらないと思ったので送迎と入場券のみのこのツアーがぴったりでした。
タイトルに書いたとおり子供とその家族しかいませんでしたが、大人でもジェットコースターとか大好きな方にはおすすめします。
日本ではありえない急角度のスライダーばかり。しかしムチウチになりかけましたのでその点気をつけて下さい。
Dear Yoshimura,
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
Aloha Yoshimura様、
貴重なご意見を頂き有難うございました。
●Points of Concern
- The bus arrived a little late compared to the scheduled time.
- The information beforehand indicated that staff would be wearing blue shirts, but the staff were wearing green shirts.
- The park was smaller than I had imagined.
●Positive Aspects
- Perhaps due to the time of year, there were few people, and I was able to enjoy most attractions without waiting in line.
- The attraction called Shaka was very interesting.
●気になった点
・バスが集合時間より少し遅れて到着しました。
・事前情報では青色のシャツを着た人がスタッフだということでしたが、緑色のシャツを着た人がスタッフでした。
・想像していたよりもパークが狭かったです。
●良かった点
・時期の関係からなのか、人は少なくほとんどのアトラクションは並ぶことなく乗ることができました。
・シャカというアトラクションがとても面白かったです。
My boyfriend and I went to Chiefs Luau and it was such a fun night. We are so happy we chose the Royal Package because we were in the very first row, got 3 complimentary drinks, and were first in line for the buffet. The food was really good, my favorite was the kalua pork and poi. The "chief" was hilarious and very talented. This show had performances/dances of cultures from all over Polynesia so it was really cool to see all of their differences. It was very engaging and family-oriented, the fire-knife performance was my favorite. One thing to note is to bring bug-spray! There were mosquitoes since the luau is located at a waterpark. I would highly recommend Chief's luau to anyone!
It was quite difficult to find a place that accepted last-minute reservations, but I was satisfied because the bus arrived at the meeting point on time without any confusion on the day.
直前に予約を取れるところが、なかなか無かったのですが 当日に混乱する事もなく時間通りに集合場所にバスも来たので満足でした。
I signed up for the tour at my child's request. The slides were all thrilling and impressive, something you don't find in Japan, and my child had a blast enjoying them repeatedly. I think even adults who love thrills would find it irresistible. It was crowded since it was the weekend, and many local families were there. It felt interesting to be part of a local weekend event.
There was only one shop open, and the line for lunch was long, so it was a good decision to opt for the BBQ lunch (though the variety and taste were just okay).
I recommend it for families with children!
こどものリクエストでツアーに申込ました。
日本には無いような迫力満点のスライダーばかりで、こどもが大はしゃぎで繰り返し何度も楽しんでいました。大人でも絶叫好きにはたまらないと思います。週末のため混んでいて、ローカルのファミリーが大勢来ていました。現地の日常の週末イベントに参加しているようで面白かったです。
売店が一店舗しか営業しておらず、ランチタイムは長蛇の列だったため、BBQランチ付きにして正解でした。(バリエーションと味はまあまでしたが。)
こどもがいるファミリーにはおすすめです!
It was early December. Since it was the rainy season, there was light rain in the morning, and I was worried about the strong winds, but it cleared up during the day and we had a great time. We didn't go on the attractions that had height restrictions, but we enjoyed the wave pool and the slides near the entrance. The wave pool had quite strong waves, and it felt like we were being tossed around. My younger child scraped their hands and feet but was very excited and had a lot of fun. While some attractions were closed at certain times, the park isn't that large, so I recommend taking a little break and coming back to try again. It was a Sunday, but perhaps due to the weather, it wasn't too crowded. For lunch, we bought hot dogs and pizza, and American fast food really is reliably delicious. By around 2 PM, it got cold and we started to shiver, so we left, but the popcorn we bought from a stall was very tasty, and we relaxed until it was time for the bus. The kids were satisfied and said they had a great time.
12月上旬でした。雨季なので朝は小雨が降り、さらに強風でどうなることかと思いましたが、日中は晴れて楽しめました。身長制限で上の方にかたまっているアトラクションにはのりませんでしたが、波のプールや入り口付近のスライダーなど、十分楽しめました。波のプールはかなりの波で、もみくちゃにされる感じです。下の子は手足すりむいていましたが、楽しいと大興奮でした。確かに時間帯によりアトラクションやっていないものもありますが、園内はさほど広くもないので、ちょっと時間おいてまた来てみるのがおすすめです。日曜日だったけどお天気のせいかそんなに混んでいませんでした。お昼はホットドッグとピザを買いましたが、アメリカのファストフードはやっぱり安定の美味しさです。2時頃には寒くて震えてきたので出ましたが、屋台で買ったポップコーンがとても美味しくて、バスの時間までのんびり過ごしました。楽しかったね、と子供も満足していました。
I always go every time I visit Hawaii. Usually, it's during the busy summer vacation period. This time, it was a weekday in October. I'm glad it was less crowded. However, because it was less crowded, the attractions only opened at staggered times, and many were closed, so I ended up having to wait in line anyway.
Also, at the bar counter, I usually can buy alcohol without any checks, but this time, they were serving alcohol at the food stalls too. Maybe it's due to their manual, but they asked to see my passport or ID... Who brings their passport just to go to the pool?! Japanese people don’t carry IDs!
ハワイに行く度に必ず行きます。いつもは夏休みの繁忙期。今回は10月の平日。空いてて良かった。がしかし、空いてるが為、アトラクションは時間差にしかオープンしなくて、クローズが多く、結局並ばなくてはいけなかった。
また、バーカウンターでは、いつもはノーチェックでお酒が買えるのに、食べ物売ってるところでお酒も出している。マニュアルのためなのか、パスポートかID見せろって言われて… プールに行くのに、パスポート持っていく人居る⁉️日本人は、IDなんて持ってないっつうの‼️
I went with a friend.
This was the cheapest option with transportation included.
There were a lot of slides, and it was fun; it was nice that it wasn't crowded like in Japan.
However, the lazy river wasn't operating, and the slides take turns being closed, so if the timing isn't right, you can't ride them.
It's nice that the lifeguards are relaxed, allowing you to take videos with your smartphone while riding.
I would like to use this place again.
友人と2人で行きました。
送迎付きだとこちらが最安値でした。
スライダーが沢山あって楽しかったし日本みたいに混んでなくて良かったです。
ただ、流れるプールがやってなかったのと、スライダーが順番に休止するのでタイミングが合わないと乗れません。
監視員が緩いのでスマホで動画撮りながら乗れるのはいいです。
また利用したいと思います。
It was more thrilling and scary than water slides in Japan, but it was incredibly fun! Since the water pressure is strong, it might be better to wear sandals that won't slip off rather than flip-flops (I wore flip-flops and had to hold them in my hands or leave them at the entrance when sliding). It's recommended because both small children and adults can enjoy it, and there are no lines at all!
日本のウォータースライダーよりも迫力があって、怖かったですが最高に楽しかったです!
水の勢いがあるので、ビーチサンダルよりも、脱げないタイプのサンダルの方がいいかも(私はビーチサンダルを履いていってしまったので、滑るときには手にかかるか入り口に置いていきました)
小さいお子さんから大人まで遊べて、全然並ばないので、オススメです!
I went with my son, who is in the upper grades of elementary school, and my family of three. This was our second visit, as we went last year as well. The weather was nice, the crowd was just right, and it was a very enjoyable day. Climbing the stairs to participate in the attractions was quite tiring, but my son enjoyed it without a care.
I definitely want to go again.
小学校高学年の息子と家族3人で行きました。昨年も行って、2回目の訪問です。お天気も良く、混み具合もちょうど良くとても楽しい1日でした。アトラクションに参加するために階段を上って行くのがとても疲れましたが、そんなことはお構いなしに息子は楽しんでいました。
是非また行きたいです。
It’s an experiential luau that families with small children and couples can all enjoy, and my family had a fantastic time! Before the show started, there were activities like fire-starting and making headbands using banana leaves, which kept the audience engaged. They celebrated guests who were there for special occasions on stage, danced with the audience, and above all, the chief's stories were very entertaining, making us laugh from the bottom of our stomachs multiple times! The food and Mai Tai cocktails were also very delicious.
The final fire knife dance was impressive! My 2-year-old son watched intently without blinking!
Definitely experience Chief's Luau! The chief and the crew will surely entertain you!!!
小さいお子様連れの家族、カップル、全ての方が楽しめる体験型ルアウで、私達家族もめいいっぱい楽しませていただきました!ショーが始まる前に火起こしやバナナリーフを使用したヘッドバンド作り体験等があり、観客を飽きさせないような構成になっています。記念日で来ている観客をステージでお祝いしたり、観客とのダンス、また、何よりもチーフの話がとても面白く、途中何度もお腹の底から笑わせていただきました!食事やマイタイカクテルもとても美味しかったです。
最後のファイヤーナイフダンスは見応えありです!私の2歳になる息子も瞬きせずにしっかりと観ていました!
チーフスルアウ、是非、体験して下さい!チーフとクルーがきっと楽しませてくれます!!!
At the pool in Japan, large slides often require a fee or have long lines, making it difficult to ride them. However, I was able to enjoy riding multiple times without any hassle.
It seems that floaties are available at each pool for anyone to use, but it started to get a bit crowded in the afternoon, and I couldn't get a floatie to float along the lazy river (laughs). I didn't see anyone bringing their own floaties, but if you really want to use one, it might be a good idea to bring your own.
Also, I heard that the BBQ lunch was all-you-can-eat, but perhaps due to the low number of participants, it wasn't a buffet style. Instead, we were given lunch boxes. The amount was more than enough and it was delicious, so I was totally fine with it, but my partner, who wanted to eat a lot of meat, seemed a bit disappointed.
Lastly, the round-trip bus can get quite cold, so I think it would be good to bring something to wear over your clothes!
日本でのプールだと、大きなスライダーは有料だったり、行列が出来てなかなか乗れなかったりますが、サクサク何度も乗れるのでとても楽しめました。
浮き輪は各プールの所に置いてあり、好きに使っていいみたいなのですが、昼からは少し混み始め、流れるプールで浮き輪をゲットできずに流れられませんでした(笑)かと言って自前の浮き輪を持ってきてる人は見ませんでしたが、絶対に浮き輪を使いたい!という人は持っていった方がいいかもしれません。
あとBBQランチ食べ放題とのことでしたが、参加人数が少なかったのかビュッフェ形式ではなく、ランチパックに入ったお弁当みたいなものを渡されました。十分すぎる量だったし美味しかったので私は全然良かったのですが、肉ばかり食べたい!!と言っていた彼は少し残念そうでした。
あと往復のバスがかなり寒いので、羽織るものがあればよいと思います!
This is my third Luau that I have been to so far and this one is by far my favorite! The crew is so nice and attentive and I loved how Chief Sielu is so family oriented. He made several points to bring guests on stage and include them in the show and they even had a special moment for two children through the Make A Wish Foundation that were there which was so sweet!
You are entertained all night long whether it's by the dancing, the Chief's jokes or the amazing fire dancers. I would also highly recommend the Royal package, we had great seats up front and were one of the first in line for the buffet.
I was torn between taking the shuttle bus or renting a car, but since I could sleep on the bus and we arrived before the park opened, I wasn't worried about losing time. The air conditioning on the bus was fine as long as I closed the vents. Considering the risk of driving while tired, the shuttle bus was definitely the better choice.
It was quite empty, probably because it was a weekday in November. We hardly had to wait, with a maximum of three people ahead of us. The time spent climbing to the starting point with a large float was overwhelmingly longer than waiting in line.
We were fine with just three bottles of water that we brought, and since we had a proper breakfast and had lunch a bit later, there was no wait at the concession stand.
I was worried about what to do with my camera on the attractions, but it was fine to bring cameras, phones, and even wear flip-flops and straw hats while riding.
I felt it was more relaxed compared to amusement parks in North America, but it was great. I had an amazing time. I highly recommend the bodyboarding for an additional fee; it's a lot of fun and there were hardly any crowds.
送迎バスにするかレンタカーか迷いましたが、バスで寝れますし開園前に着いたので時間のロスも気になりませんでした。バスの冷房も送風口を閉めれば問題なかったです。疲れた体で車を運転するリスクを考えると断然送迎バスが良いです。
11月の平日だからなのか空いてました。ほぼ並びません。最大3人待ちでした。並ぶことよりも大きな浮き輪を持ってスタート地点まで登ってる時間の方が圧倒的に長いです。
飲み物は3人で持ち込みの水3本で大丈夫でしたし、朝ごはんをちゃんと食べて行き昼食をやや遅めにしたので、売店も待ち無しでした。
アトラクションでカメラとかどうするのか心配してましたが、カメラOK、携帯OK、ビーサン(流れる・・)、麦わら帽子はそのままで乗れました。
北米の遊園地と比べるとゆるいなぁと感じましたが、よかったです。
最高に楽しめました。追加料金のボディボードがとても楽しい(空いてます)のでおすすめです。
I went on a Saturday in October, and it was relatively empty, so I was able to ride without waiting. It was smaller than I imagined, but compared to places like Nagashima Spa Land, it was still American-sized and large. The shuttle service plan included a cheerful Hawaiian driver who picked us up.
10月の土曜に行ったが比較的すいていた為並ばずにすぐ乗れた
想像よりかは小さかったがナガスパとかに比べるとやはりアメリカンで大きい
送迎付きプランでお迎えのおじさんも陽気なハワイアンでした
I went with the Royal experience with my husband and 2 year old son. It was the first time Luau as a family. We absolutely loved it!!! The chief was very funny, and the show had a lot of audience engagements when the chief and his crews welcome audience up on the stage for dance and couple anniversaries. Food was very good and of course, the Mai Tai was amazingly tasty! Also, the activities before the show were really fun!!! My 2 year old son loved watching dances especially the last fire dance! He did not blink at all! I would totally recommend to everyone who has not experienced Luau but also to who wants more family oriented Luau experience.
Thank you, Chief and the crews for amazing Luau experience!!!
My son loves it, and we go every year. This year, Dad joined for the first time. We were able to go all the way to the back during the wave pool, and my son seemed to have a great time.
This year, there were surprisingly many people, and most of the slides were open at the same time, so we were able to enjoy various attractions. Usually, there are fewer staff, and you have to time your visits to the slides when staff are present to use them.
Another downside is that the operating hours are short, from 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM (due to transportation, we can only play for a shorter time than the actual hours).
If we can, I think we'll go again next year!
息子がお気に入りで、毎年行っています。今年はパパも初参加。波のプールの時に奥の方まで行くことが出来て、息子も楽しそうでした。
今年は意外と人が多かったのか、ほとんどのスライダーが同時間にやっていて、色々楽しめました。例年はスタッフが少ないのか、スライダーが時間別でスタッフが居るところを狙って行かないと出来なかったので。
あとは10時半から15時までと営業時間が短い(送迎がるので実際の営業時間よりも短い時間しか遊べない)のがマイナス要因がです。
来年も行ければ行くかな♪
You can have a great time enjoying the pool and slide facilities, but there was only one restaurant available for lunch, which resulted in long lines and felt like a waste of time for the tour participants. Additionally, the air conditioning on the shuttle bus was excessively cold, which was tough on our bodies after getting out of the pool. This time, we were unfortunately caught in a long downpour and had to seek shelter, but the kids were very satisfied, so I would like to consider joining again next time, depending on the weather.
プールやスライダー施設で思いきり楽しめますが昼食時のお店が1件しか無く、結果大行列に時間を費やしツアー参加者には時間のロスに感じました。また送迎バスの冷房が異常に寒くプール上がりの身体に堪えました。今回は長時間のスコールに振られ雨宿りも残念でしたが、子供は大満足でしたので次回はお天気と相談して参加したいと思いました
When being picked up by the shuttle bus, we had to wait quite a while because someone who was supposed to get on at a certain hotel didn't show up by the scheduled time. I was getting frustrated, thinking, "What if we miss the pool opening time?" but we managed to make it just in time.
The attractions offered a mix of thrilling rides and relaxing experiences, and we had a great time. Even though we were a couple of middle-aged folks, we unabashedly returned to our childhood, squealing with joy.
迎えのバスにピックアップしてもらう際、あるホテルで乗るはずの人が予定時刻になっても現れずずいぶん待たされてしまいました。「プールの開園時間に遅れるのでは…」とイライラしましたが、どうにか間に合いました。
アトラクションはスリル系あり、のんびりゆったり系ありで十分楽しめました。当方アラフィフのおじさんおばさんでしたが、恥ずかしげもなくキャーキャーと童心に帰っちゃいました。
Chief's Luau was such a fun experience. The chief was such a funny person and made me laugh the entire time during the luau. The show was very intriguing, the Chief likes to have the audience take part in the show which made the experience personal. The weather was great the day I went so there was no rain at all which helped make the experience more enjoyable. The food was okay it wasn't something extraordinary but it was still good. My favorite part of the luau was when the chief had a special segment where he recognizes couples on their honeymoon and couples who have been married for a long time. The chief also helped someone propose to his love. He really acknowledges family and makes sure that everyone has a good time while they are at the luau. I would definitely recommend this luau to families and couples.
Since it wasn't peak season, the facilities were not crowded, and we were able to enjoy ourselves without any waiting time. However, there were some areas that were busy at certain times. Considering that the shuttle service took some time, it might be more efficient to use a rental car to get there.
ピークシーズンでなかったので、施設は空いていて待ち時間もなく楽しめた。ただ、時間帯によっては空いていない場所もあった。
送迎に時間がかかのでその点を考慮するとレンタカーで現地に行った方が時間を有効活用できるかもしれない。
I attended with my boyfriend. Since we went on a weekday in October, the park wasn't too crowded, and we were able to enjoy ourselves without much waiting. I love thrill rides, so this place was amazing! I don't think there's anywhere else with so many different types. I recommend it because people of all ages can have fun for a whole day! It was also nice that there was a shuttle service from the hotel.
彼氏と2人で参加しました。
10月の平日に参加したのもあり、園内はそんなに混んでなく
ほとんど並ばずに遊べました。
絶叫系スライダーが大好きなので、ここは最高でした!!
こんなにたくさんの種類があるとこは他にないのでは!?
と思います。
子供から大人まで1日楽しめますのでお勧めです!!
ホテルから送迎があるのも楽でよかったです。
My third time at the Luau and they never fail to impress me!
Family is very important to me, values, and life lessons, and every time I see their show, I always feel inspired and this time, I decided to bring my husband with me so he can experience the same. Chief's life story is so touching, and I love how he shares it with the guests. As always, Chief is very entertaining from the beginning to end, always full of laughers! The Polynesian Show, and the fire knife dance, superb!! Incomparable! Aaahhhmazing!!
This place is really fun! The slides get super crowded in Japan during the summer, but here, there are hardly any lines!! The slides are also close together, making them easy to ride. There's a wave pool and a spacious kids' pool as well.
You won't get bored even if you stay all day, but it's a shame that there's a set time to leave...
However, you can play to your heart's content all day!! I went in September, but this year I didn't take my kids to a pool with big slides during summer vacation. I told them we were coming here... because there are no lines...
The lockers are easy to find, and there are changing rooms and showers available.
If you have kids, they'll be thrilled! The height requirements for the slides are quite lenient, and they even gave a few extra centimeters!
ここは 本当に楽しいです!
スライダーは日本で夏になると すっごく並びますが
ここは 全く並びません!!スライダー同士も近く 乗りやすいです。
波のプールもあるし キッズプールも広いです。
1日いても 飽きないけど 帰る時間が決まっているのが惜しいところ・・
でも 1日遊び倒せます!!
私は9月に行きましたが 今年は夏休みに大きいスライダーのあるプールには
連れて行きませんでした。
ここに行くから・・並ばないから・・と。
ロッカーもわかりやすく 更衣室シャワーもあります。
お子さんいるなら 喜びますよ!
スライダーの身長も 結構アバウトで 2~3cmぐらいなら おまけしてくれました!
As others have mentioned, you might wonder why you would go to Hawaii and spend time at a pool. However, in Japan, you would have to wait in long lines mixed with lots of children to ride a slide like this.
Since we went on a weekday, it was relatively empty, and the lines were either bearable or we got to our turn in no time. There were many adults as well as children, so there was absolutely no embarrassment in waiting!
The sun is strong, so I think it's a good idea to have sunscreen and a rash guard. Also, wearing flip-flops or beach shoes is essential; otherwise, the heat on your feet will be unbearable!
On the day we went, we were worried because all credit cards were not accepted for locker use. The shops do accept cards, so I recommend bringing cash for the locker just in case.
The return bus was extremely cold due to the air conditioning, so it's best to dry your hair well and bring a long-sleeved jacket.
他の方も書かれているように、なぜハワイに来てプール?と思うかもしれません。
でも、日本でこのようなスライダーに乗るには長い長い列と子供だらけの列に混ざって並ばなくてはなりません。
平日に行ったので、比較的空いており、並びはしても普通に耐えられる列か、あっと言う間に自分の番が回ってくるかのどちらかでした。子供もいますが大人も多いので、並んでいても全く恥ずかしくありません!笑
日差しが強いので日焼け止めやラッシュガードはあった方が良いと思います。
あと、ビーサンかビーチシューズは履いて歩かないと足の裏が熱すぎて死にます!必須です!!
また、私たちが行った日はロッカー使用に全てのクレジットカードが使えず焦りました。
売店はカードが使えるので、念のためロッカー分の現金は持っていくことをオススメします。
帰りのバスは冷房が効きすぎてめちゃくちゃ寒いので、髪をよく拭き、長袖の上着も持参した方が良いです。
We participated with our 6-year-old child who is 116 cm tall, and both kids and adults had a great time! The slides, which would likely have long lines in Japan, were unlimited, and the wave pool was fun with its strong waves.
Since there was little sunlight, it's a good idea to bring a hat.
116センチ6歳の子供と主人と参加しましたが、子供も大人も楽しめました!日本ではすごい並ぶであろうスライダーも乗り放題ですし、波のプールも波が荒くて楽しかったです。
日差しが少なかったので帽子を持っていったほうがいいです。
Although my child wanted to go, we hadn't made a reservation due to scheduling issues during our trip (related to other activities). I considered taking a taxi or a bus, but I knew it was quite a distance from Waikiki (as I had been to the outlet several times), so after some deliberation, I decided to apply for the entire day I wanted to reserve, and I was able to participate without any issues (^O^).
The prompt response was very helpful. However, there were other buses at the meeting point, and the shuttle bus looked different from the one in the photos, which made me a bit anxious. They did check my name and luggage properly, so I suppose there was no risk of being left behind.
The explanations upon arrival were in Japanese, and since we arrived before opening time, the entry was smooth. I think the price of around 35,000 yen for four family members was reasonable.
子どもが行きたがっていたものの、旅行中の予定がうまくいかず(他のアクティビティの関係で)予約していませんでした。タクシーもしくは、バスで行こうかとも思いましたがワイキキからは結構距離があるのも知っていたので(アウトレットには何度か行ったことがあるので)悩んだ末に旅行中のしかも、予約したい日の全日に申込みをし無事に参加できました(^O^)
迅速な対応でとても助かりました。ただ、待ち合わせの場所に別なバスも停まっており、なおかつ送迎のバスも写真で見たバスとは違っていたので少し焦りました。名前と荷物の確認もきちんとしてくれたので置いていかれることもないのでしょうが。
現地に着いてからの説明等は日本語で、オープン前に到着しているので入園もスムーズでした。家族4人で35,000円くらいだったので妥当だと思います。
I read the reviews on Veltra and was concerned about the dirty restrooms and the staff looking at their smartphones, which made me hesitate to join the tour. However, since my child wanted to go, we decided to participate.
Perhaps because we went on a Monday, it was relatively uncrowded, and we were able to enjoy countless attractions, which made me very satisfied. The restrooms were not dirty, and the staff seemed to be monitoring things properly, giving me the impression that improvements have been made.
ベルトラ の体験談をよみ、トイレが汚いのと、スタッフがスマートフォンをみていてあまり良くなかったというのが気になって、ツアーに参加しょうか迷いましたが、子供が行きたいというので行きました。
月曜日に行ったからか、比較的すいていて、数え切れないくらいアトラクションに乗れて満足でした。
トイレもきたなくなかったし、
スタッフも監視をきちんとしていて、改善されている印象を受けました。
You might wonder why we would go to a pool in Hawaii, but we went as a couple celebrating our second wedding anniversary.
I was a bit anxious because the shuttle didn't arrive on time, but I guess that's Hawaiian time for you. As soon as we arrived, we stored our bags in a locker and headed straight to the slides with just our smartphones! (The lockers were accessible at any time, and a Japanese staff member showed us how to use them.)
The intensity and variety of the slides were unlike anything we could experience in Japan. I thought we might have to wait in line since the slides change at scheduled times, but perhaps because it was a weekday, we didn't have to wait much and managed to try them all.
By lunchtime, many people who had lunch plans were gone, so it was like having the rides all to ourselves.
We had a hearty breakfast before heading there, so we didn't need to eat lunch.
Also, we found that we didn't need an all-you-can-drink plan; bringing our own unopened water was sufficient. (The designated water bottle was so large that it seemed like it would be a hassle to use the all-you-can-drink option.)
I thought we would only have a short time since we had to gather at 3 PM, but we had plenty of fun.
ハワイに来てまでプール?という声も聞こえてきそうですが、結婚2年目の夫婦で行ってきました。
送迎が定刻通りに来ずそわそわしましたが、ハワイアンタイムなのでしょう。
ついてすぐにロッカーに荷物を預け、スマホだけ持って早速スライダーへ!
(ロッカーは出し入れ自由、日本人スタッフが使い方を教えてくれました)
スライダーの激しさ、数、日本では体験できないものばかりでした。
時間で実施しているスライダーが変わるので、並ぶかと思っていましたが、平日だったからか、すごく並ぶこともなく無事全制覇。
お昼になると昼食がついてるプラン組がごそっといなくなるので、乗り放題状態。
私たちは朝ごはんをがっつり食べてから向かったので、お昼は食べなくても問題なかったです。
また飲み放題プランにしなくても未開封の水持ち込みで十分。
(専用の水筒がでかすぎて飲み放題するの大変そうだった。)
15時集合で短時間だと思ってましたが、十分に楽しめました。
