All Reviews for Food & Dining Experiences

We participated in a New Year's Eve luau show with a total of nine people, including my husband's parents and my family. It was a really lovely spot by the lagoon where we could see the sunset, which was different from our usual experiences.

The show's excitement captivated my one-year-old son, who even started dancing. My parents also moved closer to the stage and seemed to have a great time.

As for the buffet, it included traditional Hawaiian dishes and sushi rolls, making it easy for everyone from children to the elderly to enjoy. However, I wouldn't say the taste was extraordinary.

Unfortunately, the staff's efficiency wasn't very good, and we had to wait quite a while from gathering to getting to our dining seats, which was tough for my son.

Overall, I think it was a good experience since we were able to enjoy it as a family.

夫の両親、私の家族合計９名で大晦日のルアウショーに参加しました。普段とはちがいラグーンサイドでの、夕陽が見えるとっても素敵な場所でした。
ショーの迫力は1歳になる息子も興味しんしんで、踊りだすほど。私の両親もステージ近くまで移動し、相当楽しめた様子でした。
ブッフェの味と内容ですが、ハワイの伝統的な食事や海苔巻もあり、子供からお年寄りまで食べやすいものでした。お味は、感動的とまでは言えません。
ただ、スタッフの手際があまり良くなかったのか、集合から、食事の席までかなりの時間並び、息子には辛かったです。
総合的には、家族で楽しめたので良かったと思います。

This was my first time participating. I used it for my honeymoon. The sandbar was beautiful, and there was plenty of free time, so it was really great. The lunch on the boat, where they grilled meat, was very delicious.

The snorkeling was a bit cold, but I was able to see a lot of fish. After getting out of the water, they also prepared warm drinks, and the staff's service was excellent.

I highly recommend it.

初参加です。新婚旅行で利用しました。サンドバーも綺麗で、自由な時間もたっぷりあったのでとてもよかったです。ランチも船上でお肉を焼いてくれてとてもおいしかったです。
シュノーケルは水が少し冷たかったですが、たくさんの魚を見ることができました。海から上がったあとは、温かい飲み物も用意してくれてスタッフの対応も◎です。
おすすめです。

It was my first time participating!! I was deeply moved by the beauty of the sandbar. Also, I was able to take many wonderful photos. On the boat, I got to see a lot of turtles, which was very healing. Thank you very much☆

初の参加でした！！
サンドバーの美しさに大感動でした。また、写真もたくさんとっていただき、素敵な写真がたくさん撮れました。船の上では、カメをたくさん見ることができ、癒されました。ありがとうございました☆

It was great to see traditional Hawaiian dance easily near Honolulu. It was more impressive than I had imagined, and I was very satisfied.

ホノルルの近くでお手軽にハワイの伝統的な踊りがみれて大変良かったです。想像していたより見ごたえがあり満足しました。

I found out that a new show started in Waikiki, and I thought, "This is it!" so I decided to participate! The content exceeded my expectations!! I had a great time.

While it incorporates elements of Hawaii, the main focus is on dances other than hula, which is refreshing ✨ I think this American and exciting show would be great for those who are repeat visitors to Hawaii.

In this show, Elvis, Michael, Elton, and Lady Gaga made appearances. Each of them was a wonderful performer, and while watching the images projected on the big screen, I forgot they were impersonators and got completely absorbed in the performance♪ Michael's dance was fantastic! The costumes looked just like the real thing!

Since I’m in my twenties, I wasn’t very familiar with Elvis and Elton, but there were songs I recognized from dramas, so it didn’t matter, and I enjoyed it anyway!

The tropical drinks and cocktails named after the stars were also fun. I chose the Lady Gaga drink~♪

After the show, we took photos together as a memento. Everyone was very friendly and happily posed for pictures and signed autographs. I want to see it again!!!!

ワイキキで新しいショーが始まったと知り、これは！と思い参加してきました！
内容は期待以上！！とっても楽しむことができました。

ハワイの要素も盛り込んであるのですが、フラダンス以外のダンスがメインで新鮮✩
ハワイリピーターの方にはこんなアメリカンでエキサイティングなショーもいいと思います。

今回のショーではエルビス、マイケル、エルトン、レディーガガが登場しました。
どの方もすばらしいパフォーマーで大きなスクリーンに映し出される映像を見ていたら
彼らがそっくりさんだなんて忘れて聞き入っていました♪
マイケルのダンスがよかったです！衣装も本物そっくり！

２０代のため(～)エルビス、エルトンにはあまり親しみがなかったのですが、
ドラマで聞いたことある曲もあったりして、そんなことは関係なく楽しめましたよ！

トロピカルドリンクや、スターの名前にちなんだカクテルなども楽しい。
私はレディーガガのドリンクを選びました~♪

ショーのあとはみんなと写真撮影で記念にもなりました。
みなさんとてもフレンドリーで心よく写真撮影、サインに応じてくれます。
また見にいきたいです！！！！！

We participated for Green room and got front row seats.
The “stars” came off the stage and sang to me and shook my hand.
“Elvis” comes so close that you can lightly smell his perfume.

When they first come to the stage, you may think they are kind of chubby, but once they start to sing and dance, you will be amazed. It’s unbelievable that they are not lip singing.

The stage equipment and audio system is great. During the performance, there is a video on the screen that shows the real star singing. The “star” on stage and the star on the screen come in sync and you start to believe that the “star” on the stage is real.

Even though you don’t know the star, they will sing many popular songs old or new, so any generation can enjoy the performance.

After the show the stars will be at the lobby, and they will give you autograph and take a picture with you.
In my mind I believe that “Michael Jackson” was real to me so I got excited and screamed.

Once in a while I heard they

I participated in the monitor tour this time.

At pickup, an old bus arrived, which made me a bit anxious, but there were no problems at all! The driver even entertained us with singing while driving (laughs).

Upon arrival, we boarded the boat. First up was sea turtle watching. We were lucky to see many that day. Then we arrived at the sandbar. Unfortunately, it was only knee-deep, but we could stand in the middle of the ocean, and the view was beautiful!

Since I went in January, there was a perfect photo opportunity when the sun came out! At this time, we could practice snorkeling, but it was cold, so I quickly returned to the boat.

For lunch, we had homemade hamburgers!! They were incredibly delicious☆ During this time, the crew sang while playing the guitar, and we enjoyed a relaxing time.

Next, we moved to the coral area! Finally, it was time for snorkeling. It was cold, but once I got in, I was amazed by the coral and fish!

Before I knew it, the fun time had passed.

This tour seems to have started in the last few years, and since it was a small group, the staff were entertaining, which made it really great☆

Mahalo♪

今回モニターツアーで参加しました。

ピックアップ時にはちょっと古いバスが来て不安でしたが、
全然問題なし！運転手さんが運転しながら歌の披露とかしてくれました(笑)

到着して船に乗り込みます。まずは海亀ウォッチング。
この日はたくさん現れてくれました。
そしてサンドバーへ到着。残念ながらひざ下くらいでしたけど、海の真ん中に立てて、眺めもキレイでした！

私が行ったのは1月だったので、太陽が見えた時にシャッターチャンス！！という感じで写真を撮ってくれました。
この時にシュノーケルの練習ができますが、寒くてすぐに船に戻りました。

そして昼は手作りハンバーガー！！
めっちゃおいしくいただきました☆
このときにクルーの人がギターを片手に歌ってくれたりして、ゆっくりとした時間を過ごします。

そして、珊瑚エリアへ移動！
いよいよシュノーケル。寒いけど、入ってしまえば後は珊瑚と魚に感動！

あっという間に楽しい時間が過ぎました。

このツアーはここ数年からはじめたらしく、少人数だし、スタッフさんも面白くて、本当に良かったです☆

マハロ♪

Since I participated in the green room, my seat was right in front of the stage. The stars came down from the stage to sing right in front of me and even shook hands. They came so close that I could faintly smell Elvis's cologne!

Even if I thought, "Wait? A bit chubby?" when they appeared, their singing, dancing, and even their talk and gestures were so realistic that I was completely drawn in. It's amazing that there was no lip-syncing!

The stage setup was quite elaborate, synchronizing with real footage, and combined with their singing skills, I gradually started to feel like I was watching the real thing.

Even for generations that don't know the originals, there are standard songs woven in, so I think everyone can enjoy it with a sense of recognition like, "Oh, I know this song!"

After the show, the stars casually responded to requests for autographs and photos at the exit. Since I was already feeling like I was with the real ones, when I took a photo with Michael, I couldn't help but let out a squeal of excitement!

It seems like there is a variety of cast members, so I definitely want to go again.

グリーンルームで参加したので席はステージまん前でした。スターたちがステージから降りてきて目の前で歌ってくれたり握手してくれます。エルビスの香水がほんのり香るほど、身近に来てくれます！

登場したときに「えっ？ぽっちゃり？」とか思っても、歌のうまさ、踊りのうまさ、トークやしぐさまで本物そっくりで、ぐんぐん惹きこまれます。口パクはいないというのがすごい！

ステージの装置もかなり凝っていて、本物の映像とシンクロしてきて、歌のうまさとの相乗効果で、次第に本物と錯覚してきました。

本物を知らない世代でもスタンダードな曲が織り込まれてるので「あ、この歌知ってる！」とどの世代にも楽しめると思います。

ショーの後、出口でスターたちが気軽にサインや写真撮影に応じてくれます。すでに見てるほうも本物と錯覚してるので、マイケルと写真を撮るときには「キャー」と黄色い声を上げてしまいました！

出演するキャストにバラエティがあるようなので、是非また行きたいです。

Hawaiian traditional feast "LUAU."
This time, I participated on New Year's Eve.
The luau here is very accessible since it's located in Waikiki, so you can feel safe even without transportation.

Additionally, from the lagoon venue, you can enjoy a beautiful sunset.

Last time, I attended another luau held in a location farther from Waikiki, but unlike that one, there were no attractions we could participate in (like lei making or games), and the setup was more about enjoying a buffet-style meal while watching the show.

In terms of experiencing a luau for the first time, I think this is a luau that you can enjoy easily with its accessibility and food.

I definitely recommend this activity for anyone visiting Hawaii!

ハワイ伝統の宴「LUAU」。
今回は大晦日の夜に参加しました。
ここのルアウは、ロケーションもワイキキ内なため、とても行きやすく送迎がなくても安心です。

また、会場であるラグーンからは、ちょうどサンセットが綺麗に見えます☆

前回はワイキキから離れた場所で開催されている、他のルアウに参加したのですが、そちらのように自分たちが参加できるアトラクション(レイメイキングやゲーム等)はなく、ショーを観ながらビュッフェスタイルの食事を楽しむ構成になっていました。

初めてのルアウを体験するという意味では、アクセスのし易さや食事等、気軽に楽しめるルアウだと思います。

是非ハワイを訪れた人には体験してもらいたいアクティビティです♪

Sunset and fireworks viewing! Friday only dinner cruise.

It's just the best.

The staff is friendly, and you can enjoy wine while watching the sunset, and at the end, there are fireworks!!

I especially recommend it for couples.

サンセットと花火を観賞！金曜日限定ディナークルーズ
とにかく最高です。

スタッフの方も気さくだし、夕日を見ながらワインを飲んで
最後には花火！！

特にカップルにお勧めですよ

We participated in an early morning plan with a 7:30 pickup for a three-generation family trip. This was our fourth stay in Oahu, but it was our first time visiting the heavenly sea sandbar, and everyone was filled with excitement.

The beauty of Kaneohe Bay was astonishing; we could see coral and tropical fish right at the harbor where the boats were docked. Once we boarded the boat and headed out to sea, we spotted sea turtles (honu) here and there. The water at the sandbar was about knee-deep, but the location was truly as wonderful as advertised. During snorkeling, we encountered a school of fish swimming among the corals just three seconds after diving in—absolutely amazing.

Surrounded by a rich ecosystem, beautiful sea, friendly and cheerful staff, and picturesque views in every direction, it became a memorable experience for us. Our whole family was very satisfied.

I don't think there’s much worry about seasickness due to the boat's structure and the calm sea, and the activities were enjoyable for everyone, from kids to grandma. If you have the chance, I highly recommend it.

　３世代家族旅行の折に7:30ﾋﾟｯｸｱｯﾌﾟの早朝ﾌﾟﾗﾝに参加です。家族みんなでのオアフ滞在は4度目だったのですが、天国の海サンドバーへは初めてで一同ワクワク感たっぷりで臨みました。
　驚くのはカネオヘ湾の綺麗な事、船の係留されている港でいきなり珊瑚や熱帯魚が見られ。いざ船に乗って沖に出ると、あちらこちらでウミガメ(ホヌ)を確認。サンドバーは膝下位の水位でしたが、看板に偽りなしの素晴らしいロケーション。その後のシュノーケルでは、潜って3秒で珊瑚の間を泳ぐ魚の群れに遭遇で言う事なし。
　豊かな生態系と美しい海、親切で陽気なスタッフ、どこを向いても絵になる素敵な景色に囲まれ、心に残る体験となりました。我が家のみんな大満足です。
　船の構造と穏やかな海で船酔いの心配もそうないと思いますし、体力的にも子どもからバアちゃんまで各々に合わせて楽しめる内容で問題なし。機会あれば、ぜひお勧めです。

I watched the show from the Premium Circle on New Year's Eve. The show was packed with content and very enjoyable. I think it was also great in terms of experiencing the local culture.

大晦日のプレミアムサークルでショー観覧しました。ショーは内容盛りだくさんでとても楽しかったです。現地の文化に触れるという意味でもとてもよかったと思います。

I was really happy that everyone received a lei when we signed up for the premium seats.

The show featured powerful fire dancing by male dancers, and since we were in the front row, we could feel the heat from the flames.

It's enjoyable for everyone, from small children to grandparents!

Before the show started, the dancers even drew pictures with magic markers for the children who wanted to imitate their tattoos.

プレミアムシートで申し込みすると、全員にレイをかけてくれてとっても嬉しかったです。

ショーは男性のダンサーのファイヤーダンスが迫力満点で、前席だったので火の熱さが伝わってきました。

小さい子供からおじいちゃん・あばあちゃんまで楽しめましすよ！

ショーが始まる前に希望者の子供にはダンサーの方が直接、タトゥーを真似てマジックで好きな絵も描いてくれました。

The Hilton Hotel is very spacious, and I got quite lost trying to find the meeting place. I wish they had provided a clearer map or something similar.

The show itself was enjoyable, and the food was delicious. I chose the Golden Circle seats, and they guided us from those seats to the buffet, so I’m glad I opted for this seating. The people in other sections had to wait in long lines.

ヒルトンホテル内がとても広くて、集合場所が分からずかなり迷いました。もうすこし分かりやすく地図なども入れてくれればいいなと思いました。
ショー自体は楽しく、食事もおいしかったです。ゴールデンサークル席にしたのですが、ビュッフェ形式でこのゴールデンサークル席から案内してくれるのでこの席にしてよかったです。他の席の人たちはかなり並んでいました。

The beauty of the sandbar was stunning, and encountering a sea turtle was moving. The snorkeling experience and the relaxed pace of the itinerary felt very much like Hawaii, and it was physically easy as well.

This experience is highly dependent on the weather, so I think the evaluation may change accordingly, but it would be excellent if it's sunny.

In any case, I liked that the itinerary was slow-paced.

The ocean is relatively cold during New Year's, so I think it's better to bring long sleeves.

サンドバーの美しさをみて、ウミガメに遭遇して感動、シュノーケル体験とゆったりとした時間の行程なのでハワイらしいですし、体力的にも楽です。

この体験は天候に非常に左右されるので、それによって評価は変わるかと思いますが、晴れたら非常によいでしょう。

とにかく行程がゆっくりしていたので、気に入りました。


お正月の海は比較的冷たいですので、長袖は持参された方がいいと思います。

There were several similar shows, and I was a bit confused, but since it was in Waikiki, I chose this one! There were more participants than I expected, and it was a bit chilly since it was outdoors, but I really felt like I was in Hawaii!! I had a great time! I think it's worth seeing at least once! The hotel also had many shops, and I enjoyed shopping on the way back♪

同じようなショーがいくつかあって迷いましたが、ワイキキということで、このショーにしました！　思っていたよりも参加人数が多く、屋外の為少し寒い思いもしましたが、ハワイに来た！！という感じがして楽しい時間を過ごしました！１度は見ておいて損はないと思います！ホテルにはお店も沢山あり、帰りにはお買い物も楽しみました♪

The facilities and content were both great!

設備、内容ともに良かったです！

While driving in Kailua, I saw people kayaking towards an island, and I just had to try it myself, so I quickly returned to the hotel and signed up for a guided tour.

My 9-year-old son and my 70-year-old father, along with the whole family, enjoyed it. While paddling towards the island, the staff kept a watchful eye on us, which made us feel safe. The beauty of the ocean goes without saying, and once we landed on the island, they provided explanations about nature in Japanese, which was very informative.

For lunch, we chose pizza, and it was incredibly delicious, which surprised us. The slices were large, so I was worried about whether we could finish them, but they were so tasty that our whole family devoured them.

I'm really glad I participated since it's an experience you can't easily have in Japan! This is an activity I want to repeat.

カイルアをドライブしていてカヤックで島に向っていく様子をみかけたので、どうしてもやりたくなって、早速ホテルに帰ってガイド付きのコースを申し込みました。

９歳の息子も70歳の父も家族全員で楽しめました。島にむかって漕いでいる間はスタッフが目をくばってくれるので、安心です。海の美しさは言わずもがな、島に上陸してからも自然についての説明を日本語で行ってくれるのでとってもためになりました。

ランチで私達はピザを選びましたが、このピザのおいしさがとんでもなくおいしく、びっくり。スライスが大きいので食べれるか心配でしたが、あまりのおいしさに家族みんなぺろりでした。

日本ではなかなか経験できないので参加して本当によかった！リピートしたいアクティビティです。

This was an excellent half-day experience. We went out on a large, spacious catamaran with a crew of 4, and in the course of 2 guided snorkling drops we had multiple sightings of dolphin, saw a giant turtle moving along the sea floor and another (or possibly the same one) pausing to breathe at the surface, and encountered countless colorful (and near-fearless) fish. We saw coral, too, with coral arches (our guide dived down and swam under one) and a "coral garden" area.

After the second dive we were given hot BBQ sandwiches and mixed fruit, with a choice of chicken or pork sandwhiches. There was plenty of room for everyone to find a spot in the sun (when it shone), and cabin shelter when we felt chilly.

The crew were friendly, safety-conscious, and proactive in large and small ways. Everyone was encouraged to wear a lifejacket for the first snorkel drop, and there were 2 crew members in the water with us, one as a guide and one to stay with the first-timers (he brought a surfboar

A must-see for Elvis fans! Even those from generations who don't know him can enjoy it to some extent (laughs). Unlike Japanese impersonations, it's incredibly authentic. The lookalikes of Michael and Gaga were also quite well-crafted.

エルビスファンなら必見！知らない世代の方もそれなりに楽しめます（笑）日本のモノマネと違って限りなく本物志向ですね。マイケルやガガなどのソックリさんもかなり作り込んでいました。

The location is great, and the horse training is very well done, so the horses are calm and you can enjoy trail riding with peace of mind.

At first, we did a 90-minute family trail ride at a walk. Other beginner families also participated, and we were able to enjoy it safely and happily.

Next, we went for a canter and encountered many horses and cows while they were grazing. Advanced riders can also enjoy this experience.

There are no vending machines here, so I think it's better to bring your own drinks.

It was a ranch where you can experience the authentic atmosphere of an American farm. It was nice and simple since it hasn't been commercialized as a tourist spot.

ロケーションも良く、また馬の調教もとても良くできていて、馬もおとなしいので安心して外乗できます。

初めはファミリーで常足外乗９０分しました。他の初心者のファミリーも参加しましたが安全に楽しくできました。

続いてキャンター外乗しましたが、放牧中のたくさんの馬や牛と出会いました。上級者の方も楽しめます。

ここは自販機が無いので飲料を持参するほうが良いと思います。

アメリカの素の牧場の雰囲気を味わえるRANCHでした。観光地化されていない分、素朴で良かったです。

The duration was three hours, but it wasn't just continuous dancing; there were audience interactions and various shows, making the time fly by. It was a lot of fun. I thought it might be a bit of a luxury, but it created wonderful memories for my mother and me on our trip. Thank you very much.

所要時間が3時間だったのですが、ただダンスが続くだけでなく、観客を巻き込んだり、色々なショーが観れてあっという間の時間でした。とても楽しかったです。ちょっと贅沢かなと思ったのですが、母娘旅に良い思い出ができました。ありがとうございました。

At the first spot, we couldn't see many dolphins, but when we moved to the second spot and got into the water, a surprising large group swam right in front of us. The cheeseburger we had on the boat was also delicious.

始めのポイントではイルカをあまり見ることが出来なかったが二回目のポイントに移動してもらい海に入るとびっくりするくらい大群が目の前を泳いでくれた。　船の上で食べたチーズバーガーもおいしかったです

This was my second time participating, and I was very happy that the same crew members remembered me from the last time!

Although I couldn't swim very close to the dolphins this time, I really enjoyed watching the crew's hula dance.

It was a bit disappointing that the pineapple didn't come out...

I would love to join this tour again!

２回目の参加でしたが前回と同じクルーの方が覚えていてくれたことがとてもうれしかったです！

今回はイルカとあまり近くで泳げませんでしたがクルーの方のフラも見れたりとても楽しめました★

パイナップルがでてこなかったのはちょっと残念でしたが･･･

また参加したいツアーです！

The weather was bad, and the seawater was up to my knees, but it was a good experience. The snorkeling was fun even though the water was murky, as there were lots of fish. The sea was very beautiful.

お天気が悪く膝くらいまで海水がありましたが良い経験になりました。
シュノーケリングも海は濁っていましたがお魚がたくさんいて楽しかったです。
海はとてもきれいでした。

It was my first dolphin tour, and it was great! I want to go again!

初めてのイルカツアーでしたが、よかった！
又行きたいー！

It was early in the morning, but everything was so enjoyable that I forgot about my sleepiness! The staff were friendly and seemed to prioritize making everyone have a good time, which impressed me.

Seeing wild dolphins up close and being able to enter the sea with them was like a dream come true. The hula was also fun!

Thank you!

朝早くからでしたが
全てが楽しくて眠気なんか忘れるほどでした！
スタッフのかたも気さくでみんなを楽しませる
ことを1番に考えているのだなと感心しました。

野生のイルカを生で見ることができ、一緒の海に入ることができたのは夢のような時間でした。
フラも楽しかったです！

ありがとう！

This was a show that truly felt like Hawaii. The scale has shrunk quite a bit since I first saw it several decades ago, but it was a good show. The fire dance, in particular, was impressive. The food was buffet style; it wasn't bad, but it was just okay. I recommend it for those visiting Hawaii for the first time.

これぞハワイと言う感じのショーでした。
数十年前に始めてみた時からは大分規模はシュリンクしていましたが、良いショーでした。
特に火の踊りは圧巻でした。
料理は、ビュッフェスタイルで、まずくはありませんが、まずまずというところでした。
ハワイへ初めて行く人にはお勧めです。

I always had experiences that I couldn't enjoy from the land or the hotel garden. When you think of Hawaii, you think of the ocean, and the romantic presentation from the sea.

いつも陸やホテルの庭からでは味わえない体験をしました。
ハワイといえば海、その海からのロマンある演出、

A dolphin swam right in front of me, and it was amazing. She was a little clumsy, but there was no problem because we had life jackets. The crew was all fun and fantastic!

イルカが目の前をとおり、感動です。彼女が金槌でしたがライフジャケットがあるので問題なし。クルーもみんな楽しくてさいこーでした。
