Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Fun Celebration Evening

Beautful sunset view from the top deck; great food and entertainment. The best part by far was the Jazz Ensemble! At the end, the cast and servers did an amazing ‘hula hula’ version of YMCA. The group loved it.

サンセット・ディナークルーズ 　スターオブホノルル号　ライブショーと選べるビュッフェまたはコースディナー

It was different from what I imagined, but that was good too! 想像とは違うけどそれもまたよかったです！

Reviewed by: ほのか

We participated as a family of four. The dinner is served buffet-style, allowing you to enjoy your meal while taking in the beautiful scenery. There are about ten different types of dishes, and some include coconut milk, so those who are not fond of it might have limited options. At the end of the tour, you can watch a show featuring hula dancing and other performances. The quality seems to vary, but it looked like the area next door (the more expensive course?) was really lively with a haka performance. To wrap things up, all the guests stood up and danced to the YMCA. My parents, who are approaching their sixties, were shy but had a great time dancing, which made for a wonderful memory (laughs).

家族4人で参加しました。ディナーはビュッフェ形式で美しい景色を見ながらご飯を食べることができます。種類は10種類くらいで、ココナッツミルクとかが使われている料理もあるので苦手な人は食べられるものが限られるかもしれません。ツアーの最後にはフラダンスなどのショーが見れます。クオリティはピンキリな印象ですが、隣のエリア(高いコース？)はハカみたいなのもやっていたようですごく盛り上がってました。最後の締めはゲスト全員が立ってYMCAを踊りました。還暦手前の両親が恥ずかしそうにしながら楽しく踊っていたので、それもまたいい思い出です（笑）

Star of Honolulu Dinner Cruise - Luxury Top Deck Sunset Dining Experience & Live Entertainment

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Anonymous

The upper deck was great for taking pictures. We started off with a charcuterie board that had tasty cheeses and fruit. The second course included lobster over a beet salad with a nice puree. My only reservation was the meat which was overcooked in my opinion, but to be fair, I'm sure many people prefer a medium-well filet. Taking pictures in between courses was a huge plus and didn't make us feel confined to the table. Overall, I would recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a good time.

A cruise is amazing when the weather is nice. 天気が良いと最高なクルーズ

Reviewed by: ココナッツ

I participated in a five-star dinner cruise this time. Perhaps because it was a weekday (excluding Friday), the exclusive fifth-floor area was quite empty, but the interior of the ship was very luxurious, and having fewer people allowed for a more relaxed experience. The weather was nice, and the views of Diamond Head and the sunset from the ship were beautiful. Fortunately, the crew spotted a whale, which became a wonderful memory. With the five-star experience, there is a private deck, so it might be great for those who want to take photos leisurely from the ship.

I felt that the number of courses was a bit on the lower side, but the portions were generous and the taste was delicious, so I was very satisfied. The cocktails I ordered were all tasty and visually appealing as well. The staff were friendly, making it a very memorable trip.

今回5スターでディナークルーズに参加させて頂きました。平日だった為か(金曜を除く)4Fの5スター専用フロアはかなり空いていましたが、船内はとても豪華な作りで人が少なかった分かなりゆったりと過ごすことが出来ました。天候もよく、船内から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやサンセットはとても綺麗でした。運よくクジラを船員さんが見つけてくれて見れたのもとても良い思い出となりました。5スターだと専用デッキがあるので、船上から写真をゆったり撮りたい方には良いかもしれません。

コース料理の品数は少なめに感じましたが、ボリュームがあって味も美味しかったのでとても満足できました。また注文したカクテルもどれも美味しく見た目も良かったです。
スタッフの方々も感じがよく、とても良い旅の思い出となりました。

This was my fifth sunset dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu, and no matter how many times I go, I always want to take it when I visit Honolulu. This time, I went with my grandchild, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time.

We were picked up before the scheduled time, which allowed us to smoothly get to the port and board the ship early, so we were able to sit at a very nice window-side seat.

Onboard, we first enjoyed a buffet of fruits and cheese. After that, we savored the course lobster and beef steak while watching the show. In between, we went out on the deck to enjoy the sunset and the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach, taking plenty of photos.

The show continued right up until just before disembarking, and we had a wonderful time. The singer was very talented, and I was captivated by their performance.

It was the best experience. Thank you very much.

Reviewed by: ama

The food was just average. Since it's a buffet, you can eat as much as you want. A person came around playing the ukulele at each table, but it seemed like they were looking for tips, so feel free to decline if you don't want to give one. Dining outdoors had its challenges due to the season and weather, and it was a bit cold. We got VIP seats for the show, but I think you can enjoy it from the regular seats as well. The impersonations of Elvis and Michael Jackson seemed to be of high quality.

食事の味はまぁ普通です。ビュッフェなので満足するまで食べられます。
各席を回ってウクレレを弾いてくれる方が回って来ましたがチップ狙いのようなので不要であれば断ってください。
野外での食事で季節、天候の問題もあり多少寒かったです。
ショーはVIP席をとりましたが、通常の席でも楽しめると思います。

Waikiki Luau with All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Dinner, Fire Dance & Rock-A-Hula Show

Amazing performance with stunning dinner

Reviewed by: Gordon

This combo offers an immersive and entertaining experience that captures the spirit of Hawaiian culture. The evening begins with a warm welcome and traditional lei greeting, setting the tone for an authentic Hawaiian experience.

The dinner itself features a delicious buffet spread showcasing a variety of local dishes, including traditional Hawaiian favorites such as kalua pig, lomi lomi salmon, and poi. The food is fresh, flavorful, and provides a wonderful introduction to Hawaiian cuisine.

The performance showcases the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii and other Pacific Islands, with vibrant costumes, energetic dances, and soulful music that transport audiences to another time and place. One of the highlights of the evening is the fire knife dance, a mesmerizing display of skill and daring that never fails to impress. Watching the performers twirl, spin, and juggle flaming knives against the backdrop of the night sky is truly awe-inspiring and adds an exhilarating finale to the show.

On the day we arrived in Hawaii, we checked into the hotel at 3 PM and had a tour pickup at 4:30 PM. We were able to enjoy ourselves without getting too tired, had meals, and watched a show.

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「チーフズルアウ」豪華ビュッフェディナーと元世界チャンピオンのファイヤーダンスが圧巻のショー＜ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ内＞

The power of the fire dance is unparalleled! 【ベルトラスタッフ体験談】ファイヤーダンスの迫力は天下一品！

Reviewed by: S.VELTRA

I participated in the luau in November 2023. The fire dance performance was truly spectacular! The powerful dance and unique techniques, along with a large number of male dancers handling fire, made for a very impressive luau!

The location is in the Kapolei area, a bit away from Waikiki, and the luau is held on the grounds of the theme park "Wet 'n' Wild." I visited using a rental car, but there are also paid shuttles available from Waikiki, so if you're feeling uncertain, using the shuttle might be a good option.

The luau starts around the time Wet 'n' Wild closes. Staff dressed in Hawaiian attire greet you at the entrance and place a lei around your neck. Along the way to the venue, you can take commemorative photos before entering the open-air venue. The seating consists of plastic chairs, but they are neatly arranged, and a staff member guides you to your assigned seat.

During the bright hours before all the guests arrive, you can experience Hawaiian culture. I tried making a crown using coconut leaves. It might be fun for families with elementary school children or groups to participate in. There was also a traditional fire-starting demonstration on stage. You can enjoy a friendly atmosphere while waiting for the show to start.

Once all the guests have arrived, the show begins. First, there is a welcome performance by strong male dancers, followed by the meal time. The meal is served buffet-style, and you take food in the order you are seated. Since there were many large guests from the mainland, some menu items were gone by the time I went for seconds... It might be a good idea to take enough food during the first serving.

The staff also provides drinks with the meal. I refrained from alcohol since I was driving, but there are menu items like Mai Tai cocktails that you can only enjoy in Hawaii! If you're coming with a shuttle or with family, I recommend enjoying the exclusive drinks.

After enjoying a hearty meal, it’s finally time for the dance show. By the time the show starts, the sun has set, and the torches on stage create an atmospheric setting. The audience also starts to get excited. The dance show features about eight performers, showcasing not only hula but also Tahitian dance and moody performances, all of which are very engaging.

The highlight of this luau is undoubtedly the fire dance! The number of performers, the intensity, and the main dancer's skills combined to create an overwhelming performance. It ended with a standing ovation and loud applause. If you want to enjoy a show full of excitement, this is definitely a luau you should participate in!

It was incredibly impressive, and I'm glad I participated! Thank you to all the staff!

2023年11月に参加させていただきました。1にも2にもファイヤーダンスが圧巻のパフォーマンス！大迫力のダンスと他に類を見ないような技術の数々、火を扱う男性ダンサーの数も多く、非常に見応えたっぷりのルアウでした！

場所は少々ワイキキから離れたカポレイ地区、テーマパーク「ウェット＆ワイルド」の敷地内で実施されているルアウです。私はレンタカーを使って訪問しましたが、ワイキキから有料送迎も出ているので不安な方は送迎利用も良いかもしれません。

ルアウの開始時間はウェット＆ワイルドの閉園と近い時間。入口でハワイアンの装いをしたスタッフさんたちが出迎え、1人ずつレイを首にかけててくれます。会場までの道中で記念写真を撮っていただき、オープンエアの会場へ。座席はプラスチックのイスですが、きれいに整頓されており、自分の指定席にスタッフさんが案内してくれました。

お客さんが全員揃うまでの明るい時間帯はハワイアン文化の体験ができます。私はココナッツの葉っぱを使った冠作りに挑戦。小学生連れのご家族やグループで楽しんでみても良いかもしれません。ステージの上では昔ながらの火起こし体験も実施されていました。ショー開始までの時間、和気あいあいとした雰囲気を満喫することができます。

会場にお客さんが揃った頃からショーの開始です。まずは屈強な男性陣によるウェルカムパフォーマンスがあり、そこからお食事タイムへ。食事はブッフェ形式で席に座っている順番に取り分けていく流れです。大柄なアメリカ本土のお客さんが多かったせいか、おかわりを取りに行った頃にはなくなっているメニューもいくつか…1回目のとりわけでしっかりと食べる分は取っておくと良いかもしれませんね。

お食事と共にスタッフさんがドリンクを提供してくれます。私は運転があったのでアルコールは控えましたが、マイタイカクテル等、ハワイでしか飲めないメニューも！送迎つきで来られている方やご家族で来ている場合は、限定ドリンクを楽しむのもお勧めです。

お腹いっぱいまでお食事を楽しんだ後は、いよいよダンスショータイムになります。ショー開始の頃には日も沈んで夜も更けており、ステージ上の松明が世界感を演出。会場に合わせて、客席も盛り上がってきます。ダンスショーは男女8名程度の構成で、フラダンスはもちろん、タヒチアンダンスやムーディーなダンス等、見応えたっぷりの演目が続きます。

このルアウの見どころはなんといってもファイヤーダンス！人数、迫力、メインダンサーの技術など、総合して圧倒的なパフォーマンスでした。最後はスタンディングオベーションで大拍手喝采。とにかく迫力満点のショーを楽しみたい方には、是非参加いただきたいルアウショーでした！

非常に見応えたっぷり、参加して良かったです！
スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました！

It was disappointing compared to what I imagined. 想像以下で残念でした

Reviewed by: ひざら

The welcome ceremony upon boarding had already ended, and we were just standing at the entrance of the ship.

The space between the seats was narrow, creating a feeling of pressure.

The welcome champagne was only filled halfway, and the glasses were dirty.

I ordered a Mai Tai for my second drink, but it was filled with a lot of ice and very diluted. If you order a drink, I recommend choosing one without ice.

The lobster was delicious, but everything else was not good. The steak, in particular, was rare and seemed like it hadn't been cooked on board. Moreover, even though it was served rare, the menu stated that consuming raw or undercooked meats increases the risk of foodborne illness, which made me question why they would serve it rare.

I made a reservation for Friday to see the Hilton fireworks, but during the fireworks, most passengers rushed to the land side, and despite reserving a window seat, we couldn't see anything. Additionally, people crowded to one side of the ship, causing it to tilt significantly, which was quite scary.

The only positive aspect was the performance of "65 Years of Aloha," where the performers were very energetic and entertaining.

If your goal is to see the fireworks, I think it's more reliable to watch them from land.

Unfortunately, the cost-effectiveness was low.

乗船する際のウエルカムフラは既に終わっており船の入口に立っているだけでした。

席と席の間隔が狭く圧迫感がありました。

ウェルカムシャンパンもグラスの半分も入れてくれません。グラスも汚れていました。

二杯目にマイタイを頼んだのですが氷がたくさん入っておりとても薄かったです。飲み物を頼むなら氷を使わない飲み物がおすすめです。

食事はロブスターは美味しかったのですが、それ以外は良くなかったです。
特にステーキはレアで、船内では調理していないような出来でした。しかもレアで出してきたのにメニューには生や半生の肉類を食べることは食中毒のリスクが高まることをご了承くださいと記載があり、ではなぜレアで提供するのか意味がわからなかったです。

ヒルトンの花火を見るため金曜に予約をしたのですが、花火の時間に乗客のほとんどが陸側に殺到して窓際席を予約したのに全く見られず、しかも船の片方に人が殺到し船がかなり傾き怖かったです。

唯一よかったのは65イヤーズ・オブ・アロハの演出でめちゃくちゃテンションの高い演者がいて楽しめました。

花火目的でしたら陸地から見る方が確実だと思います。

費用対効果は残念ながら低かったです。

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー　＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ＞

[Beltra Staff Experience] A Hawaiian show overflowing with hospitality! 【ベルトラスタッフ体験談】ホスピタリティーに溢れたハワイアンショー！

Reviewed by: S.VELTRA

I had been curious about the "Waikiki Starlight Luau" for a while, and this time I enjoyed it luxuriously from the Diamond Premium seats.

The venue is located within the Hilton Hawaiian Village, in a building adjacent to the Grand Waikikian. It's very close to the main entrance of the Hawaiian Village, so if you're feeling unsure, just head towards the entrance, and you should see the Starlight Luau sign nearby. I was a bit nervous about finding the venue since it was my first time attending, but there were plenty of signs, so I was able to arrive without getting lost.

The event was set to start at 4:45 PM, so I took my time, but by the time I arrived around 4:35 PM, there was already a long line! The seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, so I recommend arriving a bit early if you're in the Golden Seats. With the Diamond Premium seats, you can enter before the Golden Seats and are guaranteed seats close to the stage, so you don't have to rush too much to secure a good spot.

The weather was beautifully sunny, typical of Hawaii! When the venue first opened, I could enjoy the pleasant blue sky, the Hilton buildings, and a view of Waikiki beach. Being able to enjoy the time from daylight to night is one of the unique pleasures of this luau.

Once inside, I received a lei greeting and took a commemorative photo, then headed to my seat with a Mai Tai in hand! All the seating is communal, so I chatted with guests from the mainland who were sitting nearby while enjoying the welcome music and hula dance on stage.

After a while, when all the guests in the Golden Seats had entered, the showmaster made the opening announcement. First, it was time for dinner, served buffet-style with music. Guests from the Diamond Premium seats lined up first to serve themselves. The quality of the food was exceptional. Everything, from the meat to the bread and salad, was delicious, and I found myself going back for seconds of the mini malasadas and roast beef. It's great to be able to get plenty of vegetables through the salad, especially since they can be lacking during a stay in Hawaii.

You can also order alcoholic drinks with drink tickets, but be prepared to show an ID. Many Japanese people often look younger than those from the mainland, so it's a good idea to keep a copy of your passport handy. Additionally, many staff members circulate around the tables, so if you need help, they are quick to assist. It was nice when they approached me with friendly questions like, "Are you having fun?" which made me feel at ease.

After finishing the meal and as dusk approached, the dance show began. In my session, six dancers performed various tropical dances. The beauty of the women's hula dance was breathtaking. The Tahitian dance, which is not something I usually see, was also powerful and very interesting. During the show, there was a scene celebrating an anniversary, and the atmosphere of everyone enjoying the luau was delightful. Many children from the mainland were participating, and it was adorable to see them dancing with their mothers!

The finale of the dance show featured a fire dance by strong male dancers! The atmosphere became intense as preparations began, and men with torches appeared on the dark stage. Having seen several fire dances in my line of work, I can say that the dancers at the Starlight Luau had impressive techniques! Their performances, including fire manipulation and combinations with each other, created a captivating show that kept my eyes glued to the stage. It was a fantastic performance that was fitting for the grand finale. I was applauding enthusiastically alongside the American guest next to me.

Another great point is the easy access from the center of Waikiki compared to other luaus. If you have time, it might be nice to stroll around the Hilton Waikiki Village before the show. There are plenty of shopping, dining, and café options within the Hilton Waikiki Village to enjoy for a while.

The entire event is c

以前から気になっていた「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」。今回は贅沢にダイヤモンドプレミアシートで楽しませていただきました。

会場はヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ内、グランドワイキキアンに併設した建物です。ハワイアンビレッジのメインエントランスからすぐ近くですので、不安な方はひとまずハワイアンビレッジのエントランスに向かえば、近くにスターライトルアウの看板が見えるはずです。初めての参加で、会場探しからドキドキしましたが、看板の数も多いので迷うことなく会場まで到着することができました。

16:45から会場とのことでゆっくりしていましたが、私が到着した16:35頃には既に長い列が…！並んだ順に好きな席に座っていくスタイルなので、特にゴールデンシートでご参加の方は少し早めに到着しておくことがお勧めです。ダイヤモンドプレミアムシートの場合は、ゴールデンシートより先に入場ができる他、ステージ間近の席が確約されているので、急ぎすぎなくても良い席を確保できそうでした。

当日はハワイらしい快晴！開場したばかりの頃は気持ちの良い青空とヒルトンの建物群、ワイキキの海も見渡すことができました。明るい時間帯から夜までの時間を楽しめるのは、このルアウならではの醍醐味ですね。

会場に入ってレイグレイーティングと記念撮影をいただき、その後はマイタイを手に持って自席へ！全ての席が相席ですので、近くに座ったアメリカ本土からのお客さんとも会話をしながら、ステージでのウェルカム演奏やフラダンスを楽しみました。

しばらくたってゴールデンシートのお客様も全員が入場した頃から、いよいよショーマスターより開会のアナウンス。まずは音楽とともにお食事タイム、ビュッフェスタイルです。ダイヤモンドプレミアムシートのゲストから順番に並んで取り分けていきます。お食事のクオリティはさすがの一言。お肉もパンもサラダも全て美味しく、ついついミニマラサダやローストビーフをおかわりしてしまう程でした。ハワイ滞在中に不足しがちなお野菜もサラダでたっぷり摂れるのは嬉しいポイントですね。

食事に合わせドリンクチケットでアルコールも頼むことができますが、IDカードの提示を求められることも。。日本人は米国本土の方より若く見える人も多いので、パスポートのコピー等はすぐ出せる場所に持っていると安心です。
また、たくさんのスタッフがテーブルを回ってくれていますので、困ったことはすぐにサポートしてくれます。「楽しんでる？」という風に、向こうから親しげに話しかけてくれることも、気持ちが和らぎ、ありがたいとこでした。

一通りお食事が終わり、夕暮れも進んだころから、ダンスショーが開幕です。私の回では、男女合計6名のダンサーさんにて、様々な南国のダンスを披露してくださいました。特に女性のフラダンスは息を飲む美しさ。普段馴染の少ないタヒチアンダンスも迫力がありとても興味深かったです。
ショーの途中には、アニバーサリーを祝うシーンもあり、会場全体でルアウの時間を満喫している空気が心地よかったです。米国本土から参加しているゲストの子供たちも多く、お母さんたちと一緒にダンスを頑張っている姿は可愛かった～！

ダンスショーのフィナーレは屈強な男性ダンサー陣によるファイヤーダンス！！
直前からものものしい雰囲気で準備が始まり、暗いステージに松明を持った男性たちが登場します。仕事柄これまでもファイヤーダンスはいくつか見てきましたが、スターライトルアウのダンサーさんたちはテクニックが見事！火を舐めるようなパフォーマンス、ダンサー同士のコンビネーション技など、目を離せないショーが繰り広げられ、見入ってしまいました。
ショーの締めくくりにふさわしい素晴らしい演目です。私も隣の米国人と一緒に拍手喝さいでした。

他のルアウに比べて、ワイキキ中心地からアクセスが良いことも嬉しいポイントですね。
時間のある方は、ショーの前にヒルトンワイキキビレッジ内を散策してみるのも良いかもしれません。ショッピングやレストラン、カフェ巡りなどヒルトンワイキキビレッジだけでもしばらく楽しめる施設があります。

なお、全行程が英語で案内されていきますが、丁寧なスタッフたちが親身にサポートしてくれます。またダンスショー自体は言葉を超えたパフォーマンスですので、英語が苦手な方でも十分楽しめるはず！
（一部ショーマスターの話す冗談など、英語ネイティブでないと難しい内容もありましたが、ほとんど不自由は感じませんでした。）

ハワイの風を感じながら参加できること、ヒルトンさんならではのクオリティ、ホスピタリティにも溢れたショーケースでした。
スタッフの皆様、本当にありがとうございました！

The crew members were all wonderful, and I made great memories. Thank you!

娘と二人で参加です
５スターは上の階でピアノ演奏とジャズを聴きながらゆっくり食事ができました。
３スター？(下の階)は賑やかで楽しそうな音楽が聞こえ、次はそちらに申し込もうかな！？
食事は良かったです。
30年振りのハワイでとりあえず何しよう？
色々考えてディナークルーズに申し込みました。
水平線に沈む夕陽がとても綺麗でした
クルーの皆さまも素敵な方ばかりで良い思い出ができ、ありがとうございました。

Last memories of our honeymoon. 新婚旅行最後の思い出

Reviewed by: ヨッピー

The most memorable part of this dinner cruise was being able to enjoy the sunset in Honolulu without any obstruction from buildings, all in a wonderfully fun environment on the water.

The delicious course dinner, the recommended cocktails, and listening to a professional singer accompanied by a piano performance while watching the sunset was just fantastic!

Additionally, it seemed that there were many Japanese guests, and the local staff were accustomed to serving Japanese customers, which made our dinner cruise enjoyable and hassle-free.

However, there was one concern. That was seasickness. The ship didn't sway much, and I was fine, but my wife got seasick and seemed to have little appetite during the first half and middle of dinner. After stepping outside to get some fresh sea air, she started to feel better, and from there, we were able to enjoy dinner.

For those who want to experience a dinner cruise and are aware that they are prone to motion sickness, I strongly recommend taking anti-nausea medication beforehand. A special memory of your Hawaii trip could turn into an unpleasant one...

In conclusion, we took this dinner cruise on the last night of our Hawaii trip and were able to create the best memories of our time there. If you're on the fence about it, I definitely recommend participating in this tour!

今回のディナークルーズに参加して、一番思い出に残ったことは、ホノルルの夕焼けを他の建物の邪魔なく、すごい楽しい環境で海の上から見れたことです。

美味しいコースディナーを食べ、オススメのカクテルを頂き、プロのピアノ演奏に合わせてプロの歌手の歌を聞きながらの夕焼けは最高でした！

また、日本人のお客も多いのか、現地の従業員の方も日本人対応に慣れており、特に不便なく楽しくクルーズディナーを終えることができました。

しかし、1つ気がかりだった点があります。それは、船酔いです。
船内は大した揺れもなく、私は何事もなかったのですが、妻が船酔いしてしまい、ディナーの前半、中盤は食欲がなさそうでした。
船外にでて海風に当たってから調子が良くなり、そこからディナーを楽しむことができました。

これから、ディナークルーズを体験したいと思う方で、車酔いや船酔いしやすいと自覚がある方は、事前に酔い止めを飲んでおく事を強くオススメします。せっかくの特別なハワイ旅行の思い出が嫌な思い出になるかもしれないので...

最後になりますが、
私達はこのクルーズディナーをハワイ旅行の最後の夜に行き、ハワイでの最高の思い出を作ることができました。
迷っている方は、ぜひこのツアーに参加することをオススメします！

More than the price. お値段以上

I was completely satisfied with the staff's attention, the quality of the food, the view from the boat, and the excitement of the show.

スタッフのアテンド、料理のクオリティ、船からの景色、ショーの盛り上がり、どれを取っても大満足でした。

I was supposed to participate in the repeat... りぴ参加のはずが・・・

Reviewed by: SYUNPAN

This was my second time on the sunset dinner cruise. It was truly a wonderful show, no matter how many times I see it.

However, I had requested a surprise cake for my family's birthday, and unfortunately, the staff forgot to bring it out... (I understand they were busy).

In the end, they brought it out just as the cruise was ending, but we couldn't eat it and had to take it home. Given the high temperature, the cream melted, and it ended up being ruined. It became a memorable experience, but not in a good way.

りぴ２回目のサンセットディナークルーズ
何度見ても本当に素晴らしいショーでした。

ただ、家族のバースデーのためにサプライズで頼んでおいたケーキをスタッフの方がまさかの出し忘れ・・・（忙しいのは分かりますが）

結局終わり掛けに出してくれたのですが、食べれず持ち帰ることになり、気温も高いことからクリームは解けるはで結局台無しになってしまいました。
悪い意味で思い出になりました。
