Reviewed by: RIKO

New Year's Eve cruising is quite a unique experience, and at midnight, you can enjoy fireworks from the ship.

The meals, including the main steak and lobster, were delicious as well.

年越しのクルージングはなかなか体験できないもので、0:00になったら船からは花火を見ることもできます。

The cocktail party is held on the 2nd floor of Halekulani, but it lacks excitement; the dance party on the 1st floor is better. It's a waste of money.

Slow! 遅い！

Reviewed by: なし

There were too few staff members for the number of guests. The service was very poor. First, when I ordered an additional wine, they took my credit card and didn't return with either the wine or the card for about 20 minutes. When I went to ask about it, I found out that the wine had gone to another table. Furthermore, they said it was sold out, so they handed me two other bottles of wine instead.

Including us, the food service for the surrounding tables was very slow, and even at 11 PM, the main dishes of lobster and steak had not arrived. Some people didn't even receive their drinks. Since our drinks hadn't come, we had to go get them ourselves. I was starting to think we would welcome the New Year without eating the main course, but finally, around 11:30 PM, the main dishes arrived.

After the fireworks, they served dessert and coffee, but it varied by table. The enjoyment was halved. It was very disappointing.

客の人数に対して、スタッフが少ない。
サービスがとても悪かった。
まずは、追加のワインを頼んだら、クレジットカードを持って行ったまま、ワインもカードも20分ほど帰って来なくて、聞きに行ったら、そのワインは他の人のところへ行っていた。
更に、売り切れたので、同じ物がないからと他のワインを2本渡された。
私たちを含め、周りのテーブルの料理の提供がとても遅く、23時になってもメインのオマールエビとステーキが来なかった。サービスのドリンクも来ない人がいた。我が家はドリンクが来ないから、こちらから、取りに行った。
このままメインを食べずに新年を迎えるのかとも思ったくらい、23時半ごろようやくメインが来た。
花火の後で、デザートとコーヒーの提供。
テーブルによって違っていた。楽しさは、半減。とても残念だった。

Traditional dance and fireworks to celebrate the New Year. 伝統のダンスと新年を祝う花火

Reviewed by: らばーず

Since I participated in the party, I realized that being lively isn't really my nature. If you enjoy a bustling atmosphere, this might be great for you. I think it's especially recommended for those attending in larger groups.

⚫︎ Pickup
It was very smooth. The return was also easy to understand.

⚫︎ Seating
We participated as a pair but were seated at a table for eight. Perhaps out of consideration, we were guided to a table where only Japanese people were seated. There are also two-person tables, so if you arrive early, you might be able to get a two-person table.

⚫︎ About the servers
Everyone working on the ship was kind. However, there were some issues, such as the bread that was already placed on other tables not being prepared for ours (even when we asked, it took a while to be provided), and there was quite a difference in the speed of food service. I felt there might not have been enough servers for the number of participants. The servers had a considerable workload, so it seems that either there were too few servers or too many passengers for the service to keep up.

⚫︎ About the food
We were served one drink, salad, lobster and steak, and dessert. The lobster and steak were quite delicious! The meat was tender! The dessert was just okay, I would say. However, as mentioned earlier, there was a significant difference in the speed of food service at our table, with some people finishing their main course while others had not yet received theirs. The post-meal drinks did not arrive in time and were not served before disembarking.

⚫︎ About the show
It was wonderful to see various ethnic dances!! I have great respect for the performers.

⚫︎ About the countdown
Everyone gets up from their seats when the fireworks go off. I was a bit worried about tipping over since everyone gathers on one side. The fireworks were beautiful, and it was great to see the passengers getting excited at the moment of "Happy New Year." The fireworks might look bigger from Waikiki Beach.

⚫︎ About tips
I might not have researched enough, but I didn't know when to give a tip, so I didn't.

⚫︎ Other
There is a service that takes photos. The photos are quite nice and are sold on board for $32 (the staff comes around to sell them). Payment is by credit card only.

That's all.

柄にもなくパーティーに参加したため、やはりワイワイするのは性分じゃないなと感じました。
賑やかなのが好きな方は良いかと。大人数で参加する場合はよりおすすめだと思います。

⚫︎ピックアップについて
非常にスムーズです。帰りも分かりやすかったです。

⚫︎座席について
2人で参加しましたが、8人がけのテーブルに相席でした。気を利かせてか、日本人だけが座るテーブルに案内してくれました。
2人席もあるため、早めに入れれば2人席に案内してもらえたのかなと思います。

⚫︎サーバーさんについて
船内で働く人は皆親切でした。しかし、他のテーブルには最初から置かれているパンが自分たちのテーブルには用意されていなかったり（声をかけてもなかなか提供されなかった）、料理の提供スピードにかなり差があったりと、参加者に見合った人数のサーバーがいないのかなと感じました。
サーバーの皆様はかなりの仕事量であったため、それでもサービスが追いついていないのはサーバーの数が少ないか乗客が多すぎるかのどちらかではないでしょうか。

⚫︎料理について
ドリンク一杯、サラダ、ロブスターとステーキ、デザートが提供されました。
ロブスターとステーキは結構美味しかったです！お肉が柔らかかった！デザートは普通に美味しいかな、という感じでした。
ただ、先程記載した通り、同テーブル内で料理の提供スピードにかなり差があり、メインを食べ終わっている人もいるなか、メインが提供されていない人もいる、という状況でした。
食後のドリンクは間に合わず、下船までに提供されませんでした。

⚫︎ショーについて
様々な民族のダンスを見ることができてとても良かったです！！パフォーマーの方に敬意を表します。

⚫︎カウントダウンについて
花火が上がるタイミングでみんなが席を立ちます。片側に集まるため転覆しないか少し心配になりました。
花火は綺麗に見えましたし、何よりハッピーニューイヤーのタイミングで乗客の方々が盛り上がっているのが良かったです。
花火はワイキキビーチで見る方が大きく見えるかな。

⚫︎チップについて
調べ不足かもしれませんが、渡すタイミングが分からなかったため、渡していません。

⚫︎その他
写真を撮影してくれるサービスがあります。写真は立派なもので、32ドルで船内での販売があります（スタッフが席を回って販売にきます）。お支払いはクレジットカードのみです。


以上。

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Boring

Reviewed by: Sarah

We thought his luau was be dry boring and the show was not entertaining. We also are a younger couple it seemed maybe more geared toward older folks we called it the “retirement home luau” it was pretty disappointing for the last day of the trip. Also the food was a pre-fixed menu where u were waited on but for a picky eater it was not a good choice. I also went pregnant and the main appetizer was raw fish. I also don’t eat beef so all I was able to have was two tiny pieces of chicken and a small scoop of rice which was very mid. With two shrimps only. We both left hungry from a luau! Which is crazy it is supposed to be plentiful in food.

It was the best show against a beautiful sunset sky. きれいな夕焼け空をバックに最高のショーでした

Reviewed by: まるよっこ

Check-in was at 5 PM, and we were given three drink tickets per person and shown to our seats. Although the front row was fully booked at the time of reservation and we had the basic plan, we were seated at a two-person table on the edge of the third row, which had a good view. The waiters came by at just the right times to take drink orders and even offered to take photos, providing a pleasant service experience. At the end, the two leftover drink tickets were exchanged for cute paper packs of mineral water to take home.

During the time from check-in to the show, we observed the making of kapa and poi. The kapa-making demonstration had a bit of a line, but it was organized into small groups, and even if you didn't understand English, it was fun to see the cute hula girls up close. There was no making of na lawaia, but instead, there was a corner where they stamped your arm with a tattoo-like design. The show was scheduled to start at 7 PM, but in reality, singing and hula began around 6 PM and ended by 8:40 PM. It was nice that we could take photos with the performers at the end. Compared to the Hilton show I attended previously, the stage was smaller, but at the Hilton, there were a lot of people, leading to long lines for check-in, a buffet-style meal with more waiting, and shared large tables. Personally, I found this experience to be more satisfying.

17時にチェックイン、1人3枚のドリンクチケットを渡されて席に案内されました。予約時に前列確約が満席で基本プランでしたが、3列目端の２人席で見やすくてよかったです。ドリンクもウエイターがタイミングよく聞きに来てくれたり写真を撮ってくれたり、気持ちの良いサービスでした。最後に2枚余ったドリンクチケットはお持ち帰り用のかわいいミネラルウォーター紙パックと交換してくれました。チェックインからショーまでの時間はカパ作りやポイ作りを見学。カパ作りは少し並んで小グループごとに説明してくれる形式で英語がわからなくてもかわいいフラガールのお姉さん達を間近に見られて楽しかったです。ナ・ラワイア作りはなく、代わりに腕にタトゥーのようなのスタンプを押してくれるコーナーがありました。ショーは19時からと書いてありましたが、実際には18時台から歌やフラが始まり、20:40には終了でした。退場時に舞台出演者と写真が撮れるようになっていたのもよかったです。以前参加したヒルトンのショーに比べると小さめのステージでしたが、ヒルトンは人数が多くてチェックインに長蛇の列、食事はビュッフェに並びドリンクも取りに行かなければならず、席は大きなテーブルで相席だったので、自分的にはこちらの方が満足度が高かったです。

Reviewed by: デコデコマン

The pickup at the hotel and boarding went smoothly. Our table was by the window, but since we moved to the deck to actually look outside, I don't think it was necessary to be too particular about it.

People from various countries, including the mainland United States, gathered, creating a lively atmosphere, and the staff kept the energy up right until the countdown.

I found myself dancing at the YMCA, which was a bit out of character for me.

I was surprised at how delicious the steak and lobster were, even better than I had expected.

The fireworks were quite close, featuring star mines and large shells, reminiscent of the Japanese style.

On the way back, it gets crowded, so it's best to move to your bus early.

It was a fun New Year's Eve, and I think I got my money's worth.

ホテルでのピックアップ、乗船まではスムーズ。テーブルは窓際でしたが、実際に外を見るときはデッキに移動するのであまりこだわる必要はないと思います。
アメリカ本土を含めて様々な国からたくさんの人が集まってきており、賑やかで、カウントダウン直前までスタッフが盛り上げてくれます。
YMCAとか、年甲斐もなく踊ってしまいました。
予想していたより料理のメインにでたステーキとロブスターが美味しくて驚きました。
花火も結構近いところで上がります。スターマインや尺玉もある日本式ですね。
帰りは混雑するので自分の乗るバスまで早めのご移動を。
楽しい年越しになりました。料金分は十分楽しんだと思います。

Star of Honolulu New Year's Eve Fireworks Cruise - Dinner & Cocktail Packages

A safe place to be on New Year's Eve

Reviewed by: Chris M.

With illegal fireworks killing and injuring people all over Oahu, it was great to be out on the water aboard the Star of Honolulu for its New Year's Eve cruise. The surf and turf dinner was excellent, as was the live entertainment. Beverage service was quite slow; the large number of diners ordering beverages simultaneously clearly overloaded the staff. Prospective participants need to be prepared for the fact that in order to see the midnight fireworks better, hundreds of attendees move to one side of the boat causing it to tilt quite a bit. But that was the only detectable motion; even people with motion sickness could take this cruise. I had a good time and would do it again. The event was a good value, too.

Private Honolulu Sunset Cruise - Oahu Boat Rental by Pau Hana Yacht Charters

The best sunset experience!

Reviewed by: S. Engelhardt

When looking at activities for our honeymoon, we were definitely looking for an on the water experience. There are lots of options in regards to sunset or fireworks(every friday) but most of them seemed to include having to be on a boat with many other families. While we are not opposed to spending time with strangers and getting to meet people, we really wanted to have a "next level" experience where we had pictures to share and memories to make.

Pau Hana sailing delivered on every single level. Captain Austin made sure our experience was one to remember. He helped us take pictures and was an absolute gem to spend two hours with.

Considering the pricing to be on our own private charter was only slightly more than being on one with tons of other families, there was absolutely no downside. I cannot recommend Pau hana sailing enough.

When we come back for an anniversary we will absolutely be booking again. Mahalo!
