The food was delicious, and I felt the attention to each guest. Additionally, the smiles of the performers were wonderful and left a lasting impression. The quality of each star was also high and impressive. In particular, the singing voice of the fair-skinned Asian male performer was outstanding. The fire dance was also worth seeing. From Presley, flower leis were presented to several guests. After the show, the stars sent us off at the exit, which was very thoughtful.

お食事もおいしく、ゲスト一人一人に対する気配りを感じました。
また、フラショーの方々の笑顔がすばらしく、心に残ります。
それぞれのスター？のクオリティーも高く、すばらしい。
とくに、色白のアジア系の方？男性の歌声がすばらしかった。
ファイヤーダンスもみがいありです。プレスリーからは、お花のレイが、何名かの方々にプレゼントされていましたね。
終了後、スターが、出口でお見送りしてくださり、至れり尽くせりですよ。

The venue was conveniently located close to the hotel. There is also a famous Japanese restaurant, Suntory, just one floor below.

On the day we participated, there was unusually heavy rain in Hawaii. We had a buffet under a tent. As we moved to get our food to avoid getting wet, a Hawaiian dancer held an umbrella for us.

First, delicious juice or cocktails were served, followed by a whole roasted pig with an apple in its mouth, which was then cut into manageable pieces. There were also fish and meat dishes, and we enjoyed delicious desserts. During the meal, there was a hula dance show, and we had the opportunity to participate as well.

Afterward, we moved to the show venue and watched from the second floor. The view was at the same height as the stage, so it felt close even from the second floor. The quality of each star was high, and we had a great time. The fire dance, in particular, was amazing.

At the exit, we were able to take two-shot photos with various stars.

開催場所もホテルからほど近く便利でした。現地でも有名な、サントリー（和食レストラン）も、すぐ下の階にあります。
私たちが、参加した日は、ハワイでは、めずらしく激しい雨。テント下でのバイキング。
私たちが、濡れないように食事をとりに移動するところを、ハワイアンダンサーのかたが傘をさしてくださいました。
まず、おいしいジュースまたは、カクテルが運ばれ、その後、りんごを咥えた豚の丸焼きが、引き上げられ、その後食べやすくカットされてました。
魚料理、お肉料理もあり、デザートまでおいしくいただきました。食事の間に、フラダンスのショー。体験参加もありました。
その後、ショーの会場に移動して、2階席から観覧。目線が、ステージと同じ高さなので2階席でも近く感じました。それぞれのスターのクオリティーも高く。楽しめました。
特にファイヤーダンスは、すばらしかった。
出口では、いろいろなスター？と2ショッット写真も撮らせていただきました。

I was worried because I don't have a high income, but I was able to go up without feeling scared, and I enjoyed the best feeling! Before and after parasailing, I was taken by a boat, but the waves were quite rough and intense, so I got seasick! Also, if you wish, they will take photos for you, but it's $30 for cash and $35 for credit, so it's better to bring some cash, including tips.

高い所得意でないので、やらまで不安でしたが、怖がる間も無く上に上がっていけるので、最高の気分を楽しめました！
パラセイリングする前後に花で連れて行ってもらうのですが、そちらが結構波が荒く激しいので、船酔いしました！
あと、希望すれば写真を撮る撮ってくれるのですが、現金だと30ドルでクレジットだと35ドルなので、現金は、チップも含めてある程度持って行った方が良いです。

It's helpful that the pickup and drop-off are smooth with almost no unnecessary waiting time. The driver is also a kind person. The air conditioning in the car is quite strong, so it might be a good idea to bring something to wear over.

無駄な待ち時間もほとんどなくスムーズに送迎してもらえるので助かります。
運転手さんも親切な方です。
車内の冷房がきつめなので羽織るものを持っていた方がいいかもしれないです。

Wow! I didn't expect to experience such a refreshing feeling! We went out on a motorboat off the coast of Waikiki and went up with a parachute, getting a fantastic view of the city from the sea. I highly recommend it!

いやぁ！あんなに爽快感味わえると思いませんでした(#^.^#)モーターボートでワイキキ沖に出て、パラシュート？で上に上がってワイキキの街を海から見放題(#^.^#)お薦めです(#^.^#)

I was surprised by how much speed I picked up!
I used the oars to paddle until we got out to sea.
I also enjoyed the sensation of being slammed down onto the water's surface when hitting larger waves.
Even for those who can't surf, it was a refreshing experience that allowed me to understand the feelings of surfers!

思いの外スピードが出たのでビックリしました！
沖に出るまでオールを使って漕いでいきます。
大きめの波に当たると落差でドンと水面に叩きつけられる感覚も楽しめました。
サーフィンが出来ない人でもサーファーの気持ちがわかるような、爽快感のある体験ができました！

I was worried about not being able to see any dolphins, but I ended up seeing a lot of them. I was so absorbed in dolphin watching that before I knew it, my husband and I had separated while watching. It was also fun dancing on the boat!

イルカに会えなかったら？と不安もありましたが、たくさんのイルカに会えました
イルカ鑑賞に夢中で、気付けば夫婦バラバラになって見てました。笑
船の上でのダンスも楽しくて良かったです

Das Boot hatte eine schöne Größe. Zuerst sind wir zum Schnorcheln raus gefahren und anschließend weiter. Hier konnten wir uns vorne ins Netz legen und die Wellen und die Sonne genießen. Sehr schön!

I was a bit anxious because the shuttle didn't arrive at the pickup location even after some time, but after waiting for a few minutes, it finally came to pick us up. For parasailing, I decided to go for the height of 150 meters since I was there. I was excited from the moment they put on the parachute, and once we took off, we quickly ascended high into the sky, revealing a breathtaking view that spread out before me. It felt wonderful to be so high up, and I wanted to keep flying forever. My husband seemed very satisfied as well.

At the end, we had a lot of fun splashing in the water up to our waists. I'm glad I participated; it became a wonderful memory.

On the way back, there were a few people who looked exhausted from seasickness. Fortunately, the weather was good and the waves weren't too high this time, but the boat does rock a lot, so I think it's better for anyone who isn't confident to take motion sickness medication in advance.

ピックアップ場所に時間が過ぎても送迎車が来なくてひやひやしましたが、数十分待って無事に迎えがきました。パラセイリングの高さはせっかくならと１５０ｍで参加。パラシュートを装着するところからわくわくし、飛び立ったと思ったらぐんぐんと高く上がり目の前にはとても綺麗な景色がいっきに広がり感動しました。とても高く上がるので気持ちが良く、いつまでも飛んでいたくなります。主人も大満足だったようです。
最後に腰の上あたりまでボチャンもしてもらって盛り上がりました。
参加して良かったです。とても良い思い出になりました。

帰り際には船酔いでぐったりされている方が数名いました。今回お天気がよくそこまで波は高くありませんでしたが、船はよく揺れるので自信がある方以外は事前に酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうが良いと思います。

I participated with my son, who is slightly taller than 92 cm. I was really worried about the height restrictions and what would happen if they said something, but we were able to board without any checks at all. This might have just been for this time, though.

The ladder to the submarine is steep, so children who aren’t good at climbing up and down in parks or playgrounds might feel a bit uneasy.

Once you dive, it really feels like an aquarium, and it’s hard to experience the sensation of being on a submarine. That was a blind spot for me. My son got bored quickly since we often go to the local aquarium, which was disappointing. The adults enjoyed it, though. We were lucky to see a sea turtle! But I did get seasick.

All seats were by the window with Japanese commentary. I think choosing the premium option at this time was the right decision.

92cmよりやや大きめくらいの身長の息子と参加しました。身長制限のこと、何か注意されたらどうしよう！と気が気じゃなかったのですが、全くチェックせずに乗船できました。今回だけかもしれませんが。

潜水艦へのハシゴは急なので、公園や遊び場などで上り下りしっかりできない子供はちょっと不安かもしれません。

潜ってしまうともう、まさに水族館といった感じで、潜水艦に乗っている！という臨場感は味わいにくいですね。盲点でした。
よく近所の水族館に行っているので、息子はすぐ飽きてしまって、残念でした。
大人は楽しめました。
ウミガメが見れました。ラッキー！
でも、船酔いしました。

日本語解説付きの全席窓際でした。この時間のプレミアムを選んだのは正解だったと思います。

It was my first time snorkeling, and I was satisfied! I thought the photos would have been prettier if the weather had been better, but I was glad to see a sea turtle! There weren't any 17cm fins or floaties for children, but it was fine to wrap a stick as a substitute for a float or swim side by side.

初シュノーケルでしたが満足です☆天気がもっと良ければ写真も綺麗だったかなぁと思いましたが、海ガメも見られて良かったです！
子ども用の17cmの足ひれと浮き輪はありませんでしたが、浮き輪がわりの棒を巻きつける、または横並びで泳げば問題なしでした。

Great just don’t bother paying the extra for all you can drink it can be a little bumpy out there

The VIP experience was amazing. As soon as I entered, I was greeted with a chilled, delicious Mai Tai and snacks, which really boosted my excitement! The seating was in the front row, allowing me to enjoy both the meal and the show comfortably from the same spot. The food was generous in portion, with tender meat that was very tasty. The show started with Hawaiian music and was vibrant with various songs and costumes that were a delight to watch! Presley and Michael were both great at singing and dancing, and everyone was laughing out loud. After the show, they happily posed for photos, and I was able to get some great keepsake pictures. The VIP experience was very satisfying. I'm glad I participated.

vipはすごく良かったです。入場してすぐに冷えた美味しいマイタイとおつまみをいただいて、テンションが上がりました！座席は最前列で、食事もショーも同じ席でゆっくりすることができました。お食事もボリュームがあり、お肉が柔らかくてとてもおいしかったです。ショーは ハワイアンからはじまり、様々な曲や衣装で華やかに楽しませてもらいました！プレスリーとマイケルは歌もダンスも上手で面白くてみんな大爆笑でした。ショーが終わって写真撮影にもにこやかに応じていただけて、良い記念写真がとれました。vipは大満足でした。参加して良かったです。

In the afternoon session I participated in, there were two Japanese and five foreigners. I joined alone and was worried because I’m not very good at swimming and don’t have much stamina, but Chieko and Dan helped me throughout, and I was able to enjoy it until the end. The sand was swirling, so the visibility wasn’t excellent, but I was able to see many beautiful fish and sea turtles. They also took photos, which can be downloaded for free from Facebook, so I think that’s considerate. It was a hot summer day, but there were many cold spots in the sea, and I often found myself shivering. Out of the seven participants, five were able to swim from one end of Hanauma Bay to the other. This was my second time participating in a snorkeling tour, and I felt that you really need to be able to swim to some extent and have stamina to enjoy it fully. Overall, I was very satisfied with the tour and had a great time.

私の参加した午後の部は、日本人２名、外国人５名でした。私は１人参加で、泳ぎも得意なほうではなく、体力もあまりないため、心配していましたが、チエコさん、ダンさんに終始手を引いていただき、何とか最後まで楽しむことが出来ました。砂が舞っていて透明度は抜群とは言えませんでしたが、たくさんのキレイなお魚や海ガメも見ることが出来ました。写真も撮っていただき、Facebookから無料でDL出来るので、良心的だと思います。夏の暑い日ではありましたが、海は冷たいところも多くあり、震えることも多かったです。７名中５名は、ハナウマ湾の端から端まで泳げました。シュノーケリングツアーに参加するのが２回目でしたが、やはりある程度、泳げて、体力もないと厳しいと感じました。ツアー自体は、とても満足がいったし、楽しかったです。

I felt安心 knowing that there were Japanese staff on board. The sea was beautiful, and I enjoyed delicious hamburgers and salads that were grilled on the ship. I was surprised when I got stung by a jellyfish, but the staff quickly applied medicine for me. I recommend wearing a wetsuit for those who are concerned.

日本人スタッフが乗船していて安心できました。海はきれいで船内で焼いたハンバーガーとサラダなどをおいしくいただきました。クラゲに刺されてびっくりしましたが、すぐにスタッフが薬を塗ってくれました。心配な人はウェットスーツ着用をおすすめします。

On our honeymoon, we challenged ourselves with 120m! From Waikiki, we had a beautiful view of Diamond Head, and it was the best scenery! The wind felt nice too. During the trip, I experienced a bit of seasickness, but the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made me feel better. While parasailing, there was less swaying than I expected, and I truly enjoyed it! Since it was my husband's birthday, it was really the best memory!

ハネムーンで、120mに挑戦しました！ワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッド一面が綺麗に一望でき、最高の眺めでした！風も気持ち良かったです。移動中は、少し船酔いがありましたが、スタッフの方が笑顔で親しみやすく対応してくれたので、気分が良くなりました。パラセーリング中は、思ったより揺れなどなく、心から楽しめました！夫が誕生日だったこともあり、本当に最高の思い出です♪

We had such a great time!
Such a friendly and amazing staffs!
We are so glad that we made our sand bar trip with captain bob.
I think his name is Mike, one of the staff, he even kindly gave us some information where we should visit in OAHU.
We were so amazed by their kind and warm welcome!!
Thank you so so much!

The view of Oahu Island from the sea was amazing. The crew was also fun and hospitable. I bought a photo SD card for $30. I'm worried about whether the pictures turned out well, but I bought it as a keepsake. (laughs) It feels great! You should definitely do it!

海から眺めるオアフ島は、最高でした。
クルーの方も楽しくもてなしてくれます。
写真のSDカード30$で購入 ちゃんと写っているか心配ですが記念に購入しちゃいました。（笑） 気持ちいいですよ！やるべき

If you're going to Hawaii, surfing is a must. In fact, I had been taken surfing three times by a junior colleague from my company before, but I couldn't manage to take off and had given up. However, I decided to join this opportunity.

I participated alone, but the driver who picked me up and the receptionist explained everything in Japanese, which was a great help since I don't understand any English at all.

Finally, we headed to the ocean at Waikiki. I received a brief lecture in English on the beach and then we quickly went into the water. The surf point was quite far from the shore, and I paddled out, but at 50 years old, I found it pretty tiring. I couldn't help but say "very tired," and the instructor responded with a smile.

I faced the board towards the shore, waited for the waves, and the nice instructor timed it perfectly, telling me when to paddle and when to go, and I successfully took off. I was so worried about taking off, but I managed to do it from the first try, and it was incredibly fun and exhilarating.

One thing to note is that while it's fine to stand, there are many rocks, so I think I need to be careful as my feet ended up all scratched. However, the waves weren't too high, and with the instructor's good timing, I believe anyone can stand up.

It was a fantastic experience. Thank you!

ハワイに行くならサーフィン
実は以前に会社の後輩に３回ほど連れて行ってもらいましたがテイクオフ出来ず諦めていたのですがこのチャンスにと参加しました
一人で参加しましたがピックアップの運転手さん受付の人が日本語で説明していただき全く英語がわからない僕ですが助かりました
いざワイキキの海へ
海岸で英語で軽くレクチャーを受け早速海へ
ポイントは岸からかなり遠くパドリングで向かいましたが50才の僕には結構疲れ"very tired"と思わず発するとニッコリと笑顔で答えられる
ボードを岸に向け波待ちインストラクターのナイスガイがタイミングをみてパドリングそしてGoと指示してもらいテイクオフ成功
あれだけ悩んでいたテイクオフが1度目から出来とても楽しく気持ち良かったです
ひとつだけ、足はつくのはいいのだが岩が多いので足が傷だらけになるので気を付けなければいけないと思います
しかし波もそんなに高くなくインストラクターのタイミングがいいので絶対に立てると思います
とても良かったですありがとうございます

We were with a group of three. It took about 10 minutes to reach the ocean, and the flight lasted around 5 minutes overall. There were occasional bumps from the wind, but it wasn't too scary. It was a lot of fun. There was an option to have photos taken during the parasailing for $30, which we used as a keepsake.

3組と一緒でした。沖まで10分くらいで到着し、空中は総じて5分位だったでしょうか、たまに風に乗って揺れましたが、そこまで怖くないです。とても楽しかったです。オプションでパラセイル中の写真をとってくれるサービスが30ドルであり、記念に利用しました。

The guys on boat really do a great job. We had a lot of sharks around and great memories made. We will be coming back again for sure. Only wish a few other types of sharks would have joined us. A hammerhead or tiger shark would have been a treat. I studied sharks in Oceanography for 3 years. So know a ton about sharks. Loved every second of being in the water with them.
Mahalo

I did see sea turtles, but the sandbar I was looking for was underwater! The water was up to my waist, which was pointless! I was disappointed. However, the staff were friendly and took great care to ensure that snorkeling was very safe. I didn't participate, though.

ウミガメは確かに見られました。しかし目的のサンドバーが海の中！腰のあたりまでの海水、意味が無い！がっがりです。でもスタッフは新設でシュノーケルもとても安全に気をくばっていました。私はやりませんでしたが。

I participated in the hula show this time, and I would like to share my experience. I hope it will be helpful for those considering attending. My wife does hula dancing and has always wanted to go to a dinner show, so when I searched online, I came across the VERTLA page. I was torn between the one at Hilton Hawaiian Village and the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, but I decided on the Royal Hawaiian since it was within walking distance from our hotel. I booked the VIP seats for this dinner show before leaving Japan. I brought a copy of the reservation email from VERTLA.

On the day of the show, we arrived right at the 6:15 PM meeting time and immediately took a photo with Michael Jackson (they come around during dinner to ask if you want to purchase it). We waited in the lobby for about five minutes with a Mai Tai cocktail (there's a non-alcoholic option as well) and snacks (if we had arrived earlier, we could have enjoyed more fruit). After that, we were guided to a table for two. There was a schedule, and according to it, the show was set to start at 8 PM and last about 1 hour and 15 minutes. We enjoyed delicious food (see the menu photos) and drinks while chatting with a newlywed couple sitting next to us, and the time flew by until showtime.

The show featured performances by Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and their collaboration with hula, as well as solo hula and fire dancing. Everything was truly wonderful, and I particularly felt it was worth it for Michael Jackson's dance and the female vocalist's singing ability. The fire dance was also impressive. My wife seemed to want to see more hula. We were very satisfied with our VIP seat reservation, but the people in the second-floor seats who came just to watch the show without dinner were also very enthusiastic. I have attached a few photos for your reference. We are talking about wanting to go to the show at Hilton Hawaiian Village next time.

今回フラショウに参加しましたのでその体験談を書かせていただきます。
参加を検討されている方々の参考になれば幸いです。
私の妻がフラダンスをやっていて一度はディナーショーに行ってみたいと言っていましたのでネット検索した所、VERTLAのページに出会い色々載っている中からヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのものと今回のロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターとで迷ったのですが宿泊ホテルから歩いて行けるロイヤルハワイアンに決めてこのディナーショウのVIP席を日本出発前に申し込みました。VERTLAからのメールの予約票をコピーして持参。当日の流れを言いますと、18時15分集合時間ちょうどに到着、すぐにマイケルジャクソンと写真撮影（食事中に購入するかどうか聞きに来ます）。
マイタイカクテル（ノンアルもあり）とおつまみでロビーにて5分程待機（もっと早く行けばフルーツ沢山食べられた）。その後案内されて二人用のテーブルへ。スケジュール表がありそれによるとショウは20時から1時間15分程。お隣に居合わせた新婚さんと楽しくおしゃべりしながら美味しい食事（メニューの写真参照）とお酒でそれほど長く感じる事無くショウタイムに。ショウは大まかに言うとエルビスプレスリー、マイケルジャクソン、彼らとフラの共演。フラ単独。ファイヤーダンス。といった感じで実際どれもすばらしく特にマイケルジャクソンのダンスと女性ボーカルの歌唱力には来たかいがあったなと思いました。ファイヤーダンスも迫力がありました。妻はもっとフラが見たかったようですが。今回はVIP席の予約でとても満足でしたが2階席の食事無しのショウだけを見に来た方々もとても盛り上がっていました。何枚か写真を添付しましたので参考にしていただければと思います。次回はヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのショウにも行ってみたいねと二人で話しています。

My first trip to Hawaii and the first option tour!
It was great that the driver was Japanese, and I could hear various stories.
At Dole, the pineapple and soft serve were quite substantial, but they were very delicious.
After that, we went to the beach to see sea turtles, but unfortunately, the turtles didn't show up. My wife was very disappointed, but we caught a glimpse of one while driving.
In North Shore, we had lunch and did some light shopping (we could have used a bit more time).
Finally, it was time for horseback riding. My horse was quite well-behaved, but my wife's horse was a bit stubborn?! We struggled a bit, but the sea breeze along the coast felt really nice.
On the way back, thanks to the driver's suggestion, we stopped by a nut farm, which was also delicious.
It was a really great tour. Thank you!

初めてのハワイで最初のオプションツアー！
運転手さんが日本人で色々な話しも聞けて良かったです
Doleではパイナップルとソフトクリームなかなかのボリュームでしたがとても美味しかったです
そのあと海ガメを見に海岸へ行きましたが残念ながら亀さんは現れず妻がとても残念がっていましたが車で移動中に一瞬見れなんとか…
ノースシェアでは昼飯と軽いショッピング(もう少し時間が)
いよいよ乗馬、自分の馬はなかなかお利口さんでしたが妻の馬はちょっとわがまま？！で悪戦苦闘しましたが海岸沿いは浜風が吹きとても気持ち良かったです
帰りは運転手さんのはからいでナッツ園に寄って頂きこれまた美味しかったです
とても良いツアーでしたありがとうございます

So amazing!!! My husband and I have looked over our footage everyday since

It’s beautiful just don’t opt for the all you can drink it’s to short of a journey to try and catch a buzz while admiring the views!

Unfortunately, I couldn't meet the dolphins on my first attempt, but on my second try, I was able to meet them successfully! The staff were all cheerful, and I had a wonderful time!

１回目は残念ながらイルカとは会えませんでしたが、２回目のチャレンジで無事会えることができました！スタッフの方も陽気な方ばかりで、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました！

The airport to hotel transfer was very smooth. On the return trip, they easily loaded my heavy suitcase. They dropped me off near the airline counter and carefully handled my luggage while seeing me off.

I truly felt at ease. I plan to use this service again next time. Thank you very much.

空港～ホテル　の送迎！　とってもスムーズでした。
帰りは、重たくなったトランクも軽々と積み込んで頂きました。
航空会社のカウンター近く迄送って下さり荷物も丁寧に下して
見送ってもらいました。

本当に安心出来ます。次もお願いしようと思います。
　　　　　ありがとうございました。

It was a bit cloudy, but we were able to go to the sandbar on a very beautiful day! I'm not very good at swimming, but if the person you're going with can swim, I definitely recommend participating in snorkeling! Not only can you see many fish in a mysterious spot with a depth of 10 meters, but a sea turtle also popped up, and I was able to swim with it! The snacks were delicious, and since it was a buffet, I was very satisfied! However, it starts early in the morning, so it does require some stamina. (laughs)

少し曇りでしたが、サンドバーがとてもきれいな日に行けました！私はあまり泳ぎがとくいではありませんが、一緒に行く人が泳げるなら絶対シュノーケリングは参加をお勧めします！水深10mの神秘的な場所で、たくさんの魚を見ることができるだけでなく、ウミガメが顔を出してくれ、一緒に泳ぐこともできました！軽食もおいしく、ビュッフェ形式なので満足度が高かったです！ただ、朝早いのでなかなか体力が必要です。（笑）

My husband, who had never swum before, was able to swim for the first time! Thanks to the attentive support from the guides, we also got to see turtles, which was amazing!

カナヅチで泳いだことのなかった、夫が初めて泳げました！ガイドさん達の丁寧なサポートもあり、カメも、見れて最高でした！
