Oahu
Since I participated on Friday, I watched the fireworks from the Hilton instead of enjoying the sunset. The crew members were very fun, but there were free Mai Tai cocktails being served, and the boat was quite crowded and chaotic. On the day of the event, there was an announcement that the sea was relatively calm, but there were people who got sick from the alcohol and seasickness, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication.
金曜日参加だったので、サンセット鑑賞ではなくヒルトンの花火を船上から観ました。
クルーさんがとても楽しい方でしたが、フリーのマイタイカクテルが振舞われるのと船内が人いっぱいでカオス状態でもありました(^^;;
参加日当日は、割と海が静かだというアナウンスはありましたが、お酒と船酔いで吐いていた人もいるので、乗り物酔いをされる方は、酔い止めを服用されることをオススメします。
Unfortunately the weather gods were not on our side and we had high winds and very rough ocean.
However the boys who run this trip make it fun for everyone - the unlimited bar is just an added bonus.
Even though we didn't see the sunset due to weather I can imagine what it would be like on a perfect Hawaiian day.
We will definately go again on our next trip.
Fantastic experience.
Plenty to do and see during the whole day.
Enjoyed the shows in each country.
The boat and crew are awesome! Highly recommend! Me and my girlfriend and roommate have a blast. All you can drink and it’s all inclusive. I lived in Hawaii for 18 years and every time I go back to visit I try and go on a booze Cruze.
I participated in a honeymoon trip. If you're staying at Outrigger Reef, the meeting place is close and I recommend it. The sailing time was quite long, and I really enjoyed the cruise.
It was great to see the diamond head clearly. Since it was March, the wind was stronger than expected, and it got quite cold in the second half. Since you'll be taking off your shoes, I think it's better for those who get cold easily to dress warmly.
There was a wide range of participants, from young to old. Most were Westerners. There were various cocktails and alcohol available, making it a very enjoyable cruise.
新婚旅行で参加しました。アウトリガーリーフに滞在の方は集合場所が近くてオススメです。航海時間も結構あり、クルーズを満喫できました。
ダイアモンドベッドがしっかり見れてよかったです。3月でしたからか予想以上に風が強く後半はかなり寒かったです。くつも脱ぎますので、寒がりの方は着込んだ方がいいと思います。
老若男女という感じで幅広い方が参加されてました。ほぼ欧米人でしたが。
カクテルなどアルコールも色々あってとても楽しいクルーズでした。
The sunset was the goal, but due to bad weather, we couldn't go out into the bay. I didn't have high expectations for the food, but it was not delicious at all. It felt more like just having a meal inside the boat rather than a sunset dinner cruising experience.
サンセットが目的でしたが天候悪く湾の外に出られませんでした。料理については期待はしていませんでしたが全く美味しく有りませんでした。サンセットディナークルージングでは無く舟の中で食事だけした感じです。
It was raining in the morning, and the venue was changed, making it very difficult for non-staying guests at Hilton Hawaiian Village to find the location! However, while wandering around, we noticed more and more groups who seemed to be lost like us, and we all searched together, which eased our anxiety. Among them, a family from NJ seemed to be staying in the tower with the ballroom after the change, and although it was unrelated to the show, the concierge we asked at the hotel was not very helpful. The venue felt like a large wedding hall and had a smaller number of attendees, but we had seats in the front center, where we could closely watch lei-making and even get temporary tattoos done by magicians. The children had a great time as well. They came to our seats to take drink orders for three rounds, and we were allowed to go to the buffet first, with both the food and desserts being delicious. The show started quite early, so I was very grateful for the priority seating. Of course, we got to see an impressive show, and even though the rain in Hawaii had us feeling a bit down, we enjoyed a fun night with a fire show by three masters.
朝から雨が降っていて、場所が変更されての開催でしたが、ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ非滞在者にはとても場所が分かりにくい!!しかし、うろついている間に、同じような迷子?グループが増えていき、みんなで探して不安がまぎれました。なかでもNJからお越しのご家族は、変更後のボルルームのあるタワーに宿泊していたらしく、ショーとは関係ないですが、質問したホテルのコンシェルジュが頼りなかったです。会場は大きな結婚式場みたいな感じで人数も少なめな感じでしたが、前方中央席で、近くでレイ作りや、マジックで入れ墨?を書いてくれたり、子供も多いに楽しんでいました。ドリンクも三杯分、きっちり席まで聞きに来てくれたし、バッフェも優先に取らせてもらえて、料理もデザートもおいしかったです。ショーは結構早く始まったので、優先で取れるのは大変ありがたいと思いました。もちろんばっちり迫力のあるショーが見られたし、雨のハワイではテンションも下がり気味でしたが、三人のマスターによるファイヤーショーも見られて、楽しい夜になりました。
The pickup was late, and I waited for about 20 minutes. It seems there was a problem, but I would have appreciated some communication.
The half-day tour took us from one end of Oahu to the other. I didn't have high expectations based on the reviews, but it was great to visit places that you can only reach by rental car. At Hanauma Bay, we only took photos from above, but the clear blue water was beautiful. There were many people snorkeling to see the dead coral reefs. Haleiwa had a rural town atmosphere and was very photogenic, so I took a lot of pictures. We stopped at the Hawaiian Coral Factory, and I thought it would be nice to enjoy trying on some items. I also found rings for about $15 at the edge and purchased one.
At the Polynesian Cultural Center, I learned about the differences in dances from various regions and had various experiences. The hula dance show on the boat was definitely the most wonderful part.
For dinner, I upgraded to the middle class, received a fresh flower lei, and enjoyed my meal while watching the show.
時間通りに迎えが来ず、20分ほど待ちました。トラブルがあったようですが、連絡が欲しかったです。
半日観光は、オアフ島の端から端まで連れて行ってもらいました。レビューからあまり期待してませんでしたが、レンタカーをしないと巡れないようなところばかりでよかったです。ハナウマベイは上からみて写真を撮るだけでしたが、透き通った青がきれい。死んだサンゴ礁?を見るためにシュノーケルしてる人がいっぱい。ハレイワは田舎町のような雰囲気でフォトジェニックだったので、たくさん撮りました。途中でハワイアンコーラルファクトリーに寄りますが、試着を楽しめばいいかなと思いました。端っこに15ドルくらいの指輪も並んでたので購入。
ポリネシアン文化センターでは、いろんな地域のダンスの違いを知り、いろんな体験ができます。船上のフラダンスショーがやっぱり一番素敵でした。
夕飯は真ん中のクラスにアップデートし、生花のレイをかけてもらい、ショーを見ながら食べました。
such a fun way to begin our trip in hawaii. We arrived and headed straight for the cruise and it was just amazing.. the staff were awesome and never let your glass become empty. Such a nice way to see the whole of Waikiki beach. Highly recommended!!
We considered taking a cruise on the day of our family trip with 10 members as a memorable experience. We debated between a large cruise ship with meals included or a sunset cruise on a catamaran yacht. Having previously experienced both, and thinking about the grandchildren, we chose the catamaran yacht since it was "closer to the sea." Seeing the joy of our four grandchildren during the cruise and after disembarking made me realize that we made the right choice with the yacht. No one in our family got seasick, but those who are sensitive to motion should take precautions like taking medication.
10名の家族旅行の記念にと思い、急遽 当日に乗船を検討。食事付きの大型客船か双胴船ヨットでのサンセットクルーズにするか悩みましたが、以前 大型客船とヨット双方に乗船経験があり、孫を中心に考えると「海が近い」双胴船ヨットを選択しました。クルーズ中と下船した時の孫4名の喜びを見ると、ヨットにして良かったと実感しました。我が家族の中には船酔いした者はいませんでしたが、船に弱い人は薬を飲む等の対策は必要です。
We participated as a couple. The sunset was beautiful.
Hawaii has many sunny days, but it's rare to see a beautiful sunset with clouds near the horizon.
By the way, the sunset can also be beautifully viewed from the beach.
The staff provided a notice specifically for Japanese guests and were very proactive in taking photos, which was wonderful service.
The music played by the DJ felt a bit dated, and there were women in their 40s and 50s really enjoying it.
I thought the duration could be a little shorter.
夫婦で参加しました。夕日は綺麗でした。
ハワイは晴れの日が多いですが水平線の辺りは雲が多く綺麗なサンセットが見られるのはなかなかないかと思います。
ちなみにサンセットはビーチからでも綺麗に見れます。
スタッフも日本人専用注意書きをくれ、写真も進んで撮影してもらい、素晴らしい対応でした。
DJがかける音楽は少し世代が古く感じられ、40〜50代くらいのおばさんがノリノリでした。
時間はもう少し短くても良いかなと思いました。
Both the dinner and the show were amazing! We had dinner with our reluctant child, but the staff were very kind and helpful. The dance in the show had a high quality, and it progressed at a good pace, so we never got bored!
ディナーもショーも最高でした☆嫌々期の子供も一緒にディナーでしたが、スタッフのみなさんがとても親切で助かりました(*^^*)ショーのダンスもクオリティーが高く、テンポよく進んだので飽きませんでした☆
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
It was very good.
I thought it would be nice if the comparison of the price list was a bit easier to read.
I really wanted to have dinner while watching the dance show, but it was a bit disappointing that we made a mistake with the reservation due to our oversight.
とても良かったです。
料金表の比較等をもう少し見やすくしてくれると良いなぁと思いました。
本当はダンスショー見ながらご飯食べたかったけど私達の見落としで間違えて予約してしまったのが少し残念でした。
Thank you very much for visiting us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
During a day with a thunderstorm forecast, it miraculously cleared up, and although it wasn't perfect, I was able to witness an inspiring sunset. The moody music and the sunset illuminating the hotels in Waikiki, along with Diamond Head, are definitely worth seeing. However, the waves were over 3 meters, so those prone to seasickness should be cautious.
雷予報の一日の中、奇跡的に晴れ、完ぺきとはいえないまでも、感動する夕焼けを観ることが出来ました。ムーディーな音楽と夕日に照らされたワイキキのホテル、ダイヤモンドヘッドは一見の価値ありです。
しかし、波が3メートル以上あり、船に酔いやすい方は注意が必要。
The first thing I got confused about was the description of the location, "there are stairs beyond the pool at Sheraton Waikiki." When I arrived, there were no participants for the tour, and I was flustered! In fact, there were two conditions written on the paper! For those going on the tour, please remember this well! The pool at Sheraton Waikiki is not the one with the waterslide; it is the pool that is for people aged 16 and over! So please be careful!
私はまず迷ったのは、「シェラトンワイキキのプールの先に階段があって」という場所説明ですね。行ってもツアーに参加する人がいなくてあたふた❗️実は紙に書いてある条件のところは2つあったのです‼️ツアーに行く方はよーく覚えておいてください!シェラトンワイキキのプールというのはウォータースライダーがあるプールではなくて、16才以上の人が入れるプールのことです‼️
なので気をつけて‼️
I participated with two friends.
At the bus stop, there were many buses in the same place, and while I was looking for my bus on the road, I almost missed it.
The Japanese guide was very straightforward and funny.
Once we arrived, we had free time until the return trip.
First, we had a buffet, and since we had a little time, we looked at photos and souvenirs in the park and watched a show.
The buffet for regular guests was Western food that was a bit bland for Japanese people.
Foreign children seemed to enjoy it.
友達2人で参加しました。
バスの乗り場には、同じ場所にバスが沢山いて、車道でバスを探していたらバスに乗りそびれそうになってしまいました。
ガイドの日本人の方はとてもズバズバ話される方で面白かったです。
着いたら帰りまでは、自由行動です。
まずビュッフェを食べてから、少し時間があったので園内の写真やお土産をみて、ショーを観ました。
普通の方のビュッフェは、日本人には大味な洋食です。
外国の子供は喜んでいる様子でした。
As expected, the food and service at the Royal Hawaiian are excellent. The staff is efficient, making it very pleasant to enjoy the experience. I had my small children, aged 4 and 6, with me, and they provided considerate service for the kids as well. It's a bit pricey, but the quality is satisfying.
さすがにです、ロイヤルハワイアンの料理とサービス。従業員もテキパキしていて、とても気持ちよく鑑賞できます。小さな4歳、6歳の子が一緒でしたが、子供に対しても気を使ったサービスをしてくれます。少し高いですが、満足のいく内容です。
I had a great time. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, and I couldn't see the sunset, but I thoroughly enjoyed the food and live music. However, the air conditioning on the ship was quite strong, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket.
楽しく過ごさせていただきました。
残念ながら曇りで、日の入りは見ることができませんでしたが、お料理や生演奏は満喫できまきた。
ただ、船内がけっこう空調がきいていたので、上着を持参する方がいいかもしれません。
This is a place you definitely should visit when you come to Hawaii. You can experience the lifestyle of the Polynesian islands' people, such as weaving crowns from palm leaves by hand! There’s also a performance by a funny Hawaiian guy who climbs tall palm trees like a monkey to get coconuts, which is very entertaining and fulfilling. Booking through Veltra is the cheapest option, and I really had a great time!
ハワイに来たら、必ず行った方が良い所です、
ポリネシアンの島々の人達の生活振りやヤシの葉を手で編んで
冠を作ったりなどの体験も出来ます!
ハワイアンの面白いおっちゃんが高いヤシの木に猿の様に登って
ココナッツ取るなどのパフォーマンスもあってとっても面白く充実して
います、ベルトラで申し込むのが1番安いし本当に楽しかったです!
The title is a bit confusing ... sunset and fireworks cruise ... I thought I was ordering the fireworks cruise but in fact it was a sunset booze cruise. Weather wasn’t great but that’s not their fault. The 5:30 cruise is the sunset cruise. 1 1/2 hours all you can drink MaiTais and champagne. Friday night the yaucht club races, so that was pretty cool to watch. When we got off the boat we walked down the beach and actually had a really good view of the fireworks so it all worked out.
I made a reservation in Japan to take home the best memories on my last night in Hawaii. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't perfectly clear, which brought down the mood a bit. However, we were the only Japanese people there, and everyone else was foreign! The atmosphere was lively, and both the captain and the bartender (a woman) were very cheerful, which made us feel really happy.
While the sunset can be affected by the weather, the staff knew how to make the experience enjoyable beyond that. Watching the night view of Waikiki from the ocean and soaking in the atmosphere, I had four Mai Tais and felt absolutely wonderful.
ハワイ最後の夜に最高の思い出を持って帰ろうと日本で予約して行きました。
あいにく天気は快晴とはいかずややテンション下げ模様でした。
しかし日本人んは我々のみで、すべて外国の方!テンションもアゲアゲで船長&バーテンダー(女性)もノリがよく気分はとてもハッピーになりました。
サンセットという意味では天気には左右されますが、それ以上にどう楽しませるかわかっているスタッフでした。
沖から見るワイキキの夜景や雰囲気にのせられ、マイタイも4杯頂き最高に気持ちよかったです。
Enjoyed the evening from start to finish - loved the meet and greet, the food was great and the selection unbelievable. The entertainment at the dinner and the participation by those having dinner created a happy and enjoyable experience. Following dinner the meet and photo session with Katie got everyone off to a great start for the show. I am a mad Elvis fan and an Australian who has been to Graceland 5 times, I had photos taken with Elvis after the show and told him that I have seen many Elvis impersonators and he is the best by far. I loved the show and the added input of the Beach Boys who I also love. The added attraction of the films behind the entertainers was fantastic. The backing band also were tops and the Hawaiian dancers right up there with the best.
My personal favorite part of the show - Elvis for sure - he blew me away and the way he moved about the audience during the songs made sure everyone had a great time. Will make sure during our next visit I and my colleagues will attend the show again!
The Makani No. 2 was a two-hull yacht.
In March, Hawaii is in its rainy season, and unfortunately, the weather was not great, but luckily it didn't rain.
We set sail from Kewalo Basin and enjoyed a round trip of about two hours near Diamond Head. I was able to experience the Hawaiian sea right beneath us and had a thrilling time.
Along the way, I got quite cold, but the staff member kindly served us warm herbal tea. The cookies were delicious too! ^_^
マカ二号は二艘式のヨットでした。
3月はハワイは雨季で、あいにくのお天気でしたが、なんとか雨ではなかったのが幸いでした。
ケワロ湾を出航、ダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで往復約2時間の航行。ハワイの海を真下に体感しながら、スリリングな時間を楽しめました。
途中、とても体が冷えてきましたが、スタッフのお兄さんが温かいハーブティをサービスしてくれました。クッキーも美味しかったです^_^
I was able to eat a lot of my favorite foods, and they were delicious, leaving me completely full. The post-meal show, with the dance while spinning fire, had me on the edge of my seat and my heart racing.
食事も好きなものをたくさん食べれて美味しくてお腹一いっぱい。
食後のショー、火をグルグル回しながらのダンスなんてこちらが手に汗握りドキドキしました
Loved the dinner and show from start to finish! All of the performers were interactive and welcoming. Would definitely recommend for all ages!
From the bus ride (Bow was a great and informative guide) to the food to the great show that was put on, it was an awesome time. Never a dull moment. The staff went about and beyond to make sure we had a great time. I would definitely recommend this luau.
My family and I had an exciting time on this cruise. We got to mingle with people, laugh, talk, drink and the best part- dance while cruising on water. We had an awesome time and will definitely be cruising the Maitai Catamaran again!!!
The cruise was great and relaxing! The crew was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed how the trip brought us to see a scenic view of the island. Food was ok. Drinks were better! Would have been better on a less cloudy day but really no complaints.
Aloha and Mahalo for taking the time to share your Sail Makani experience with us. So glad to hear you got to relax and enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian Sunset.
We really enjoyed ourselves on this dinner cruise! The entertainment was great as well as the food! The view of the city from the cruise ship was beautiful. We would definitely do it again!
What a totally enjoyable day. Well worth it. I recommend getting the group guided tour inside the Center to save time and get a better experience.
