My husband and I went to the rock a hula show and had a great time! We decided to go with the dinner and a show option and the meal was very good! They give you plenty of food and your own spot at a table super close to the stage where you get a great view of the performers! When we went the performers were Elvis, Michael Jackson, and Katy Perry. The performers were all very good and super friendly, they came down to the crowd and shook hands and interacted with many people, you'll especially get a hand shake if you choose to be in the VIP section! Elvis started it off and it was pretty hard to tell the difference between his singing and the real deal. Michael Jackson was probably my favorite, sounded and actually looked just like him, and with him you'll also see a very authentic moon walk! There were big TV screens that came up and showed fun pictures of the real Elvis, Michael Jackson and Katy Perry while they all performed. Also there were hula dancers that performed during all of the performances and they were absolutely fabulous! At the end of the show, there was a fire juggler that came out and both my husband and I were awe struck by his performance! The way he was able to spin the sticks of fire was so amazing, when I think of Hawaii, this was definitely what came to mind! The staff was super friendly and very helpful, the service was quick and they could also whip up some delicious cocktails which just added to the fun! All in all we we're looking for just a fun night out and I love going to shows and this show definitely exceeded our expectations, I would recommend this show to anyone wanting to have a good time and see a truly authentic Hawaiian show!

Would go again. It was great and we had lots of fun

Recently, whenever I go to Hawaii, I always make sure to sign up for it. The sunset cruise with free drinks is fantastic for both the mood and the scenery. I'm looking forward to the next time!

ココ最近ハワイに行くときは必ず申し込ませてもらっています。
フリードリンクでのサンセットクルーズ、気分も景色も最高です。
また次回も楽しみにしています

I debated between the Star of Honolulu and this one, but I chose this based on the price and atmosphere. As mentioned in other reviews, I felt that there were relatively more participants from Western countries than from Asia, but it wasn't unusual to see Japanese people, and I was able to make friends. Since it's not a large ship, it sways a bit and there are some splashes from the waves, but that's part of the fun of sailing. The selection isn't extensive, but the drinks were delicious, the view was great, and it was a wonderful experience that makes me want to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii.

スターオブホノルル号と迷いましたが、お値段と雰囲気からこちらを選びました。
他のレビューにあるように、参加者は比較的アジア圏よりも欧米圏の方が多いと感じましたが、日本人も珍しくなく、仲良くなることができました。
大きな船ではないため多少揺れ、波しぶきはありますが、それもセーリングの楽しさということで。
種類は多くないですが、お酒も美味しく、眺めも良く、次のハワイ旅行でも参加したいと思える良い体験でした。

Crew was great and entertaining. Weather was perfect for the sunset. My wife and I had a great time.

On Friday, fireworks will be launched from the Hilton, and you can watch them from the sea. It was a very special experience. Additionally, there was an all-you-can-drink option for Mai Tai, making it a cost-effective tour. It might get chilly at night, so I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear over.

金曜日にヒルトンから花火が上がるので、それを海の上から見ることができます。とても特別な体験でした。
さらに、マイタイというお酒が飲み放題でしたので、価格的にもお得なツアーでした。
夜は冷えるかもしれませんので、一枚羽織れるものを持ってくといいかと思います。

Dining while cruising and enjoying the sunset, the night view of Waikiki, and even watching fireworks was a truly luxurious experience. However, the fireworks from Hilton lasted only about five minutes, so if you're imagining the quality of a Japanese fireworks festival, you might find it a bit lacking. Please keep that in mind when attending the fireworks every Friday! ^^

クルーズで食事を取りながらサンセット、ワイキキの夜景、さらに花火を見たりするのはとても贅沢な時間を過ごせられました。ただヒルトンからの花火は5分程度だったので、日本の花火大会のようなクオリティを想像していると物足りなさが出てしまうため、毎週金曜日の花火はそのつもりで参加されてくださいね^^

The structure of the show and the performers are slightly different each time, so I participate every time I go to Hawaii. Influenced by the lively spirit of the American people, I can't help but cheer in a way I never do in Japan, and that has become a fun memory as well. This time, I wonder if Michael's singing was a bit hard to hear?

ショーの構成や出演者も毎回微妙に違うのでハワイに行くたびに参加しています。
アメリカの人たちのノリの良さに影響されて
ついついこちらまで　日本ではあげたことのないような歓声をあげてしまいますが
それもまた楽しい思い出になってます。
今回のマイケルは歌が聞こえにくかったかな？

The Mai Tai Catamaran Cruise was my second experience. The departure location is on the beach between the Sheraton Waikiki and Halekulani, so it was convenient for me since I was staying at the Sheraton. The staff is cheerful, and it's a fun cruise!

マイタイ カタマランクルーズは2回目の体験でした。
出航場所がシェラトンワイキキとハレクラニの間のビーチなので、シェラトンに宿泊している私には便利です。
スタッフも明るく楽しいクルーズですよ。

Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I wanted to see the sunset from the ocean, so I booked this tour. It's a yacht rather than a large boat, so it sways more than I expected! I think it's better to be out on the deck and feel the wind rather than stay inside.

As soon as we set sail, drinks were served, and after a while, there was a buffet-style dinner. Although no one spoke Japanese, the staff was very friendly, so I didn't have any issues. We set sail at 5 PM, and by before 6 PM, the drinks and dinner were finished. I thought to myself, "Do I really have to stay in this sway for over an hour?" but on the way back, the swaying stopped due to the direction of the waves, and I was able to enjoy the much-anticipated sunset and relax.

It may depend on the day, but I think those who are not prone to seasickness will enjoy it even if it sways.

せっかくハワイに来たので海からのサンセットが見たくこちらのツアーを予約。
大型船ではなくヨットなので思っていた以上に揺れる！
室内にいるよりデッキに出て風に当たる方がいいと思います。
出航してすぐドリンクが提供され、しばらくしてバイキング形式のディナー。日本語は全く通じませんがスタッフはとてもフレンドリーで困ることはありませんでした。
17時に出航して18時前にはドリンクとディナーが終了、まだ１時間以上もこの揺れの中いるのかぁ、、と一瞬挫けそうになりましたが戻りは波の向き的に揺れがなくなり期待のサンセットを見たりのんびり過ごせました。
日にもよると思いますが揺れても大丈夫な船酔いに強い方は楽しめると思います。

A pleasant sea breeze and a speeding yacht.
We’re feeling tipsy with Mai Tais.
The two beautiful women next to us synchronize with our toast.
We hit it off and enjoy a fun dinner together.
Italian food at Waikiki Beach.
The best night until late into the evening.
Thank you.

心地よい海風をうけ、疾るヨット。
マイタイでほろ酔いかげんな僕ら。
カンパイの音頭に隣りの美人二人連れがシンクロ。
意気投合して、楽しい夕食を伴に。
ワイキキビーチのイタリアン。
夜が更けるまで最高の夜。
ありがとう。

Great captian and crew. Free pick-up and return from Waikiki, didn't have to be concerned about drinking too much. Fun evening and great fireworks.

We participated as three generations of our family. The sunset was very beautiful, and the Mai Tai was delicious! My clothes got a little wet from the splashes, but that's also a nice memory.

親子三世代で参加しました。夕日がとても綺麗で、マイタイも美味しかった〜。水しぶきで服も少し濡れたけど、それもいい思い出。

I had the most moving moments during this trip. It's not often in life that you experience something that makes you want to cry just from seeing the scenery. I would definitely recommend it to others, and if I have the chance to come back to Waikiki, I will make sure to include it in my schedule.

今回の旅行の中で、最も感動する時間を得る事が出来ました。景色を見て泣きそうになることなど、人生の内でそうそう体験出来るものではありません。他の人にも進めると同時にまたワイキキに来ることがあれば、必ずスケジュールに入れたいと思います。

The hospitality from everyone at the luau was outstanding! I was surprised by the bright and cheerful service. It was an incredibly fun time. Also, it was my first experience with a whole roasted pig. And once I tried it, it was exquisite; I've never had such delicious pork before. The show exceeded all my expectations and was incredibly lively. It's also convenient to be able to see it in Waikiki.

フラの皆さん、ホスピタリティ高過ぎ！　明るく楽しいおもてなしでビックリです。最高に楽しい時間でした。それから、ブタの丸焼きも初めての経験。しかも食べてみれば絶品で、こんなに美味しいブタを食べたのは初めてです。ショーも期待をはるかに上回る盛り上がりでした。ワイキキ内で見られるのも便利ですね。

I made a reservation for pickup at the Ala Moana Hotel, but when the pickup time came, no one showed up. After 30 minutes, I called the tour company but couldn't get through, and 45 minutes later, I had to take a taxi to the location and barely made it onto the ship just before departure.

I recommend caution for those requesting a pickup. It was the worst experience. I would like a refund for the taxi fare.

Later, I received a contact from VELTRA, and they coordinated with the tour company to refund the taxi fare. Since I received the refund, I will revise my rating from 1 star to 3 stars.

アラモアナホテルお迎えで予約しましたが、ピックアップ時間になっても来ないため、30分後にツアー会社に電話かけても繋がらず、45分後に急遽タクシーで現地へ向かい出航寸前の船に飛び乗りました。
お迎え頼む方は注意された方が良いです。
最悪でした。
タクシー代返金して欲しいです。

後日 VELTRAから連絡があり、ツアー会社と調整いただきタクシー代の返金がありまた。
返金いただいたので評価を見直し⭐️１から３に変更します。

I participate every time I travel to Hawaii. This time, I joined on the first day of my arrival. The waves were a bit high, and it swayed like an attraction, but everyone was fine! Haha. We drank and drank, and our spirits were at their peak. Cheers to the healing journey that starts today!

毎回、ハワイ渡航中に参加します。今回は、到着日初日に参加。ちょっと波が高くて、アトラクション的に揺れたけれど、みんなへっちゃら！笑。飲んで飲んで、気分は最高潮。今日から始まる癒しの旅に乾杯！

I was worried that the strong winds from the typhoon would cause the trip to be canceled, but I’m glad we were able to set sail as planned. I participated with three friends, and it was their first experience, while I had been before. We saw three turtles and intentionally sat in a spot to get splashed by the waves, enjoying the beautiful blue sea and sky. My friends were very happy, which made me glad as well. Personally, I prefer the aggressive daytime experience of getting splashed over the quiet drifting at sunset. I want to participate again next time!

台風のせいで風が強く、中止になるかと不安でしたが、予定通り出帆してもらえてよかったです。
友人3人で参加し、私以外は初体験。亀が3匹見られましたし、わざと波をかぶる席に座り、青い海と空を満喫しました。友人もとても喜んでくれたので、よかったです。
個人的には、静かに漂うサンセットより、波しぶきを浴びるアグレッシブな日中の方が好きです。次回もまた参加したいです！

I ride this yacht almost every time.

This time, there was wind but the waves were calm, with only the right edge at the front getting splashed, so it was a bit lacking in excitement. However, I saw two turtles and there were flying fish jumping around, which made me finally feel like I had arrived in Hawaii. I'm glad my companions enjoyed it too.

This was about my sixth time, but for the first time, there was a Japanese staff member who spoke fluent Japanese, so it was great to learn various things from them.

ほぼ毎回このヨットに乗っています。

今回は、風はあるけど波が穏やかで、先頭の右端しか波がかからず、揺れもあまりなく、ちょっと物足りなかったですが、
亀も二匹見られたし、トビウオみたいなのも跳ねてましたし、
これに乗って、ようやくハワイに来た感じがしました。
同行者も気にいってくれたので良かったです。

今回で6回目くらいですが、初めて日本語ぺらぺらの日系人スタッフさんがいましたので、色々教えてもらえて良かったです。

If you are prone to seasickness, you might be a little worried. The atmosphere was very nice, and I felt it was worth participating. The drinks were sufficient. The meeting place was hard to find.

船酔いがある方は 少し心配かなとも おもいます。雰囲気はとても良く 参加して良かったと思いました。ドリンクだけで 充分でした。集合場所が わかりにくい。

Definetly do the 5 star....it was my wife's 40th Birthday and we had a great meal, beautiful views! Awesome sunset! GREAT music....the staff was wonderful and the setting was very romantic. I would do it again!!!

As mentioned in other people's experiences, the claim that this is "the only dinner cruise in Hawaii that can take you from Waikiki to offshore Diamond Head" was false. It followed the same route as Star of Honolulu and turned back well before reaching Diamond Head. It may have been due to high waves on the day, but there was no explanation provided. I had explained to other first-time visitors to Hawaii that we would go to offshore Diamond Head... The food was delicious. It was also nice that it wasn't as large as Star of Honolulu and had fewer people.

他の方の体験談にも記載がありましたが、「ワイキキ沖からダイヤモンドヘッドの沖合いまで行くことができるハワイ唯一のディナークルーズ」というのは嘘でした。スターオフホノルルと同じコースを辿り、ダイアモンドヘッドのはるか手前で折り返し。当日は波が高かったのでそうなったかもしれませんが、その説明は無し。他の初ハワイの人たちに、「ダイヤモンドヘッドの沖まで行く」と説明したのに・・・。食事は美味しかったです。スターオフホノルルほど大きくなく人が少ないということも良かったです。

My wife and I booked this during our honeymoon and definitely enjoyed ourselves! The food was delicious, the view was spectacular and gave us plenty of picture opportunities at sunset on the back of the ship! We definitely enjoyed the on board entertainment with the hula dancers, the gentleman on the ukelele, solo vocalist, pianist and they even had a saxophone player who dabbled in the art of the jazz flute! What a great night out!!

This time, it was my third participation in two years. I always enjoy the wonderful show that has been enhanced each time. It's not just a simple impersonation show; I am moved by the high quality every time. I have seen similar shows in Las Vegas, but this one does not fall short at all. However, I felt that there were fewer performers this time and that the showtime was a bit shorter.

今回、２年ぶり３回目の参加でした。毎回ショーアップされた素晴らしいショーを楽しんでおります．単なる物まねショーにとどまらずそのクオリティーの高さには毎回感動しております。
同様のショーをラスベガスでも見たことがありますが決して見劣りしておりません、但し今回は
出演者も少なくショータイムも少し短かった様な気が致しました。

This was so much fun and our hosts amazing, Ryan and Felipe. Thank you so much for a great start to our honey moon.

I applied for the VIP dinner and cocktail show after seeing it featured in "In Love with Hawaii 2." I attended with my 75-year-old mother. The food was decent, but it seemed like there was too much for my mother. She also complained about the quick removal of the dishes (it seemed like the woman next to us was saying something similar). However, the show itself was absolutely wonderful, and my mother was very happy. The impersonation show was great, and the fire dance was very impressive. It was also a nice touch to be able to take a photo together on the way out. I would like to visit again if the opportunity arises, but next time, I think it would be better to have dinner elsewhere before attending.

ハワイに恋して2で紹介されて気になっていた所、VIPディナー&カクテルショーのモニター募集があったので申込みしました。75歳の母との参加です。食事の味はまあまあでしたが、母には量が多かったようでした。また、食事を下げるのが早いと不満をこぼしていました。(隣の女性もそのような話をしていたようです)ただ、ショーの内容はとても素晴らしく、母もとても喜んでいました。そっくりさんのショーもそうですが、ファイヤーダンスとても迫力がありました。帰りに一緒に写真を撮ってもらえるのも嬉しいサービスです。機会があればまた伺いたいと思いますが、その時は食事は他でしてきてからの参加でいいかなと思います。

After entering, you can enjoy cocktails, chips, and fruits in the pre-show area. Once you enter the show venue, the meal will begin, followed by the show. The dancers make surprising entrances from the ceiling. I recognized the shows of Presley and Michael, but unfortunately, I didn't know the songs in Katy's show. The hula show was also more impressive and had more performers than the one on the ship.
The meal is not much different from the dinner on the ship. The content of the show is better here, so if you're not particularly interested in the sunset, I recommend this option.

入場後、前室でカクテルとチップとフルーツがいただけます。ショーの会場に入場後、食事が始まります。その後、ショーが始まります。ダンサーが天井から登場したり、意表を突かれます。プレスリーとマイケルのショーはわかりますが、ケイティーのショーは残念ながら曲がわかりませんでした。フラのショーも船上で行っているものよりも人数が多く迫力のあるものでした。
食事の内容は、船上のディナーと大差はありません。ショーの内容はこちらのほうが上で、サンセットに興味が強くなければこちらのほうをお勧めします。

I was worried that the clouds would obstruct the sunset, but I was able to see the sun setting on the horizon after all. The atmosphere was fantastic, and I felt very relaxed. I would love to ride again.

雲が多く夕陽か見えるか心配でしたが、何とか水平線に沈む夕陽が見えました。
雰囲気は最高で、とても癒されました。
また乗りたいと思います。

Very relaxing. Beautiful sunset, my husband & I enjoyed it very much!

I was anxious about my first trip to Hawaii, especially since the guide couldn't speak Japanese, but I had no problems and enjoyed myself completely! The night view and fireworks were wonderful! Since it can be a bit chilly, it's definitely a good idea to bring a jacket!

初めてのハワイで不安、しかもガイドさんは日本語が話せない…と不安でしたが全く問題無く楽しめました！夜景に花火素晴らしかったです！
肌寒いので必ずアウター持っていくといいです！
