All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

It was just a 10-minute program, but I was able to feed the dolphins three types of fish, dance with them using my favorite toy that I chose, and take a lot of photos with the dolphins. I'm really glad I participated in such a fulfilling program!

I think my enjoyment was also due to my complete lack of issues with English. Since communication with the trainers and the reception staff is in English, I imagine that those who lack confidence in their English conversation skills might only enjoy about 70-80% of the experience.

たったの10分のプログラムでしたが
イルカに3種類の餌の魚をあげたり
自分の選んだ好きなおもちゃでイルカと一緒に踊ったり、イルカと沢山の写真を撮っていただいて大変身のあるプログラムで参加して良かったです！

ただ私は英語能力に関しては全く問題ないのも楽しめた要因だと思います。トレーナーの皆さんや受付の方とコミュニケーションは英語になるので英会話に自信が無い方は楽しさも7-8割になるのかなぁと想像してます。

This was my second time at Sandbar. I had previously known about Captain Bruce's tours but had avoided them due to the cost. This time, I booked it at the request of my companion, and I received services that exceeded the price. The food on the boat was delicious, and the number of people on the tour was not too large. The staff was kind, and I had a great time.

サンドバーは2度目でした。以前も、キャプテンブルースのツアーは知っていましたが、料金面で避けておりました。
今回は、同行者の希望でこちらを予約しましたが、料金以上のサービスを受けられました。
船上の食事も美味しかったですし、ツアーの人数も多すぎず、スタッフも親切で楽しかったです。

Before the show, we had a meal at the buffet. There was pork, beef, chicken, and white fish. I thought it was quite tasty.
The show was enjoyable with impersonators and fire dancing. It was really great that it ended with the Hawaii Five-O theme song!

ショーを観る前にブッフェ での食事をしました。豚も牛もチキンも白身魚もありました。普通に美味しいと思います。
ショーは、そっくりさんが出てきたり、ファイアーダンスがあったりと楽しめました。最後、ハワイファイブオーの曲で終演したのがとてもよかったです！

We had an incredible guide for the whole day. The extra cost was worth being able to see most of PCC in a day with lots of information about each area! We had no stress as the guide got us around the park in a very well planned fashion. Even with the PCC app we would not have done all that we did if we were on our own without a guide.

Great experience but wish it was with better weather. High tide and very choppy waters made visibility difficult. Still a good opportunity!

I splurged on VIP seats for Michael, which I was really looking forward to! First, we enjoyed the meal, and then the opening! I was focused on the front, so I was surprised! We had a fantastic time with Presley, a local singer, and of course, Michael, along with hula and fire dancing.

The portion sizes were just right, and the staff was efficient. I think the show is well-adjusted for various age groups, so it would be great for families to experience together. After the show, they are friendly and willing to take photos with you.

マイケルを楽しみに奮発してVIP席を取りました！
まず、食事を堪能してから、オープニング！前方を注視していたので、ビックリしました！プレスリーと地元の歌手の方、楽しみにしていたマイケル、フラ、ファイアーダンスとてんこ盛りで楽しめました。
食事の量も丁度よく、スタッフもテキパキ。ショーの内容は、いろんな年代に広くアジャストするものだと思うので、ファミリーで体験するのも良いのではないかと思います。ショーの後も、気さくに写真撮影に応じてくれます。

We had a great time. Despite Neptune whipping sand up into the water making the clarity poor the crew made up for it and ensured we had a great time. We still saw green sea turtles both below and above the water. We had a great time just sailing the Cat when it was clear that snorkeling conditions weren't great.

I have used this place several times to celebrate my father's birthday. It started with a beautiful sunset, and after dinner, we went up to the cabin to enjoy the amazing night view. Each year, more hotels are being built, making the night view more vibrant.

親父の誕生日祝いに何度か利用させてもらってます。きれいな夕日からはじまり、食後はキャビンに上がって最高の夜景が楽しめました。年々ホテルが増えてきて、夜景がにぎやかになってきてます。

I attended a relative's wedding in Hawaii... aloha

The day before, we had a family dinner and went to see the Rock-a-Hula show, which I had really wanted to see when coming to Hawaii. ☝️

It was the best show where I could enjoy it together with the cast, just as I expected. The staff were friendly, which added to the fun.

Next time, I will go to see it with my friends.

親戚の結婚式がありハワイへ………aloha

前日、会食を兼ね親戚皆で
ハワイに来たら是非観たかった
ロック・ア・フラショーに行ってきました。☝️

期待通りにキャストと一緒に楽しめる最高のショーでした。
スタッフの方も気さくで愉しさが増しました。

次はお友達と一緒に観にいきます。

I attended in late October 2019. The venue was beautiful, and there were relatively few guests, allowing us to enjoy the show comfortably. The content was a fusion of rock, pop, and hula, including impersonations of Michael Jackson, which were entertaining. However, overall, I felt the material was a bit outdated and lacked excitement.

I think the show would be more interesting if it mixed new and old elements more effectively.

2019年10月下旬に参加しました。
会場は綺麗で、比較的客数も少なく、ゆったりとショーを楽しむことが出来ました。ロックやポップとフラを融合した内容です、マイケル・ジャクソンの物真似など、面白い内容ですが、全体的にネタが古く、イマイチ盛り上がりに欠けると思います。

新旧織り交ぜるともっと面白いショーになると感じました。

I finally got to see a sea turtle! I was so happy to see it up close, and the guide was bright, fun, and amazing! I was also thrilled that I could do stand-up paddleboarding.

念願のウミガメに会えました！
近くで見ることが出来て嬉しかったし
ガイドさんが明るく楽しく最高でした！
サップが出来た事も嬉しかったです

I was thrilled to see dolphins so clearly! I didn't expect to see them up close, so it was truly moving. The slide activity was incredibly fun!

イルカがばっちり見れて最高でした！
こんなに近くで見れると思ってなかったので感動でした。
アクティビティの滑り台が最高に楽しかったです！

I went with my son, who is in the upper grades of elementary school, and my family of three. This was our second visit, as we went last year as well. The weather was nice, the crowd was just right, and it was a very enjoyable day. Climbing the stairs to participate in the attractions was quite tiring, but my son enjoyed it without a care.
I definitely want to go again.

小学校高学年の息子と家族3人で行きました。昨年も行って、2回目の訪問です。お天気も良く、混み具合もちょうど良くとても楽しい1日でした。アトラクションに参加するために階段を上って行くのがとても疲れましたが、そんなことはお構いなしに息子は楽しんでいました。
是非また行きたいです。

I participated in the afternoon session. The sandbar had water up to my knees even in shallow areas. Still, I was able to take many wonderful photos! The staff members all spoke Japanese and were very proactive in taking pictures and showing great consideration. Also, the lunch was delicious! It was so good that I went back for seconds! Snorkeling was a lot of fun, with sea turtles coming very close and plenty of fish to see!! If you have a GoPro, you can capture the fish and sea turtles underwater, so I definitely recommend bringing one if you have it! It would also be great to have a float. I participated in November, and while it was a warm day, the water was still a bit cold... I recommend bringing a thick hoodie ('ω').

I definitely want to participate again (〃ω〃)ノ

午後の部に参加させていただきました。
サンドバーは、浅いところでも水が膝上くらいでした。
それでも、素敵な写真がたくさん取れました！
スタッフさんが日本語が話せる方ばっかりで積極的に写真を撮ってくださったり、気配りも素晴らしかったです。
そして、ランチが美味しかったです！
美味しくて、おかわりをしちゃうくらいでした！
シュノーケリングも、ウミガメがとっても近くて魚もいっぱい見れてとても楽しかったです！！
Go Proがあれば、水の中のお魚やウミガメも撮れるので、ある方は絶対持って行った方が良いです！浮きがあればなお良いと思います。
11月の参加で、暖かい日でしたが、それでも水の中が少し寒かった…。厚手のパーカーを持っていくことをお勧めします('ω')

またぜひ、参加したいと思います(〃ω〃)ノ

We had a great experience with the shuttle to Hanauma Bay. The driver was very polite and helpful. The van was comfortable and the timing was perfect. The company representative I talked to on the phone was very helpful and gave me excellent advice on where to park our car while we were on the excursion. I would highly recommend this experience. Well worth the price!

It’s an experiential luau that families with small children and couples can all enjoy, and my family had a fantastic time! Before the show started, there were activities like fire-starting and making headbands using banana leaves, which kept the audience engaged. They celebrated guests who were there for special occasions on stage, danced with the audience, and above all, the chief's stories were very entertaining, making us laugh from the bottom of our stomachs multiple times! The food and Mai Tai cocktails were also very delicious.

The final fire knife dance was impressive! My 2-year-old son watched intently without blinking!

Definitely experience Chief's Luau! The chief and the crew will surely entertain you!!!

小さいお子様連れの家族、カップル、全ての方が楽しめる体験型ルアウで、私達家族もめいいっぱい楽しませていただきました！ショーが始まる前に火起こしやバナナリーフを使用したヘッドバンド作り体験等があり、観客を飽きさせないような構成になっています。記念日で来ている観客をステージでお祝いしたり、観客とのダンス、また、何よりもチーフの話がとても面白く、途中何度もお腹の底から笑わせていただきました！食事やマイタイカクテルもとても美味しかったです。

最後のファイヤーナイフダンスは見応えありです！私の2歳になる息子も瞬きせずにしっかりと観ていました！

チーフスルアウ、是非、体験して下さい！チーフとクルーがきっと楽しませてくれます！！！

Excellent experience!!
Very beautiful place and our family really enjoy!!

This cruise was a highlight of our trip. We spent our 34th anniversary with delicious food, wonderful music and great company. we had our own private table but had wonderful people sitting next to ours. The live music was relaxing and entertaining throughout the dinner. Our waitress was very courteous and helpful. We hope to spend another anniversary in the future on the Star of Honolulu!! Quyana - Mahalo - thank you.

At the pool in Japan, large slides often require a fee or have long lines, making it difficult to ride them. However, I was able to enjoy riding multiple times without any hassle.

It seems that floaties are available at each pool for anyone to use, but it started to get a bit crowded in the afternoon, and I couldn't get a floatie to float along the lazy river (laughs). I didn't see anyone bringing their own floaties, but if you really want to use one, it might be a good idea to bring your own.

Also, I heard that the BBQ lunch was all-you-can-eat, but perhaps due to the low number of participants, it wasn't a buffet style. Instead, we were given lunch boxes. The amount was more than enough and it was delicious, so I was totally fine with it, but my partner, who wanted to eat a lot of meat, seemed a bit disappointed.

Lastly, the round-trip bus can get quite cold, so I think it would be good to bring something to wear over your clothes!

日本でのプールだと、大きなスライダーは有料だったり、行列が出来てなかなか乗れなかったりますが、サクサク何度も乗れるのでとても楽しめました。
浮き輪は各プールの所に置いてあり、好きに使っていいみたいなのですが、昼からは少し混み始め、流れるプールで浮き輪をゲットできずに流れられませんでした(笑)かと言って自前の浮き輪を持ってきてる人は見ませんでしたが、絶対に浮き輪を使いたい！という人は持っていった方がいいかもしれません。

あとBBQランチ食べ放題とのことでしたが、参加人数が少なかったのかビュッフェ形式ではなく、ランチパックに入ったお弁当みたいなものを渡されました。十分すぎる量だったし美味しかったので私は全然良かったのですが、肉ばかり食べたい！！と言っていた彼は少し残念そうでした。

あと往復のバスがかなり寒いので、羽織るものがあればよいと思います！

This was my third time. Each time, I rate it as the most enjoyable activity for my family. The hospitality of the guides is excellent. The hamburgers on the boat are delicious too. Don't forget the $5 for beer. We always see sea turtles, but this time we were able to see a manta ray. Everyone was thrilled. I will work hard again to return to the sandbar soon.

これで、３度目でした。毎回家族で一番楽しかったアクティビティと評価しています。とにかく、ガイドの方々のホスピタリティがいいです。船の上のハンバーガーもうまいです。ビール代５ドルも忘れずに。毎回海がめは見れるのですが、今回はマンタ様を拝見できました。一同感激でした。早くサンドバーに
戻る為、またお仕事頑張ります。

On the last day of our trip, we searched for activities near Waikiki and made a reservation the day before. The other participants were mostly foreigners, and there were no explanations in Japanese, but we managed to follow along. About 10 minutes after departure, snorkeling began. There weren't many fish, but we saw three sea turtles. The ocean was surprisingly beautiful. After that, we enjoyed sailing and took in views of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea. We had a lot more fun than we expected, even near Waikiki!

旅行最終日にワイキキ近くでできるアクティビティを探して前日申込みました。
参加者は私達夫婦以外は外人ばかりで、日本語の説明も全くありませんでしたが、流れでついていきました。
出航から10分くらいでシュノーケルが始まりました。魚はあまりいませんでしたが、ホヌは3匹は見れました。海は意外にもキレイでした。
その後セーリングでダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキを海から眺めました。
ワイキキ近くでも予想以上に楽しめました！

It was a very peaceful tour, and I think there’s a chance to encounter whales, but I was satisfied to see them clearly! The food was also very delicious. If I had to say something, I wish I had known in advance how far we would be from the whales, as it felt a bit too far.

とても穏やかなツアーで鯨に出会える確率もあるとは思いますが、しっかりと鯨を見させて頂けて満足！料理もとても美味しくて良かった
しいて言うなら、鯨に近づける距離は事前に解っていたらなーって　ちょいと遠過ぎる気がした

Paul Patron was an excellent pilot, made the tour very calm and safe. Informed us interesting facts of the island.This is a MUST do, an experience like no other. We were able to see about 2/3 of Oahu by land on a 10 hr bus tour the day before and then be able to see the same amount of the island in 45 min!! Views were magnificent, just like if you were to see it on National Geographic or something.

I saw dolphins a few times. It might be a luxury, but this is my evaluation of the tour.

First, make sure to arrive early when boarding the boat. The staff will ask you to fill in from the back, but those who know will sit in the front.

Sitting in the front makes it easier to secure a spot near the staff who are aware of where the dolphins are, as people in the front will jump into the sea first.

Also, it’s inconvenient if there’s no basket for your belongings under you, so try to sit where there is a basket.

You will inevitably have to swim close to the staff. Other guests may kick you or push you aside, but keep moving forward without giving up.

After seeing the dolphins, the staff will say, “Those who haven’t seen a dolphin yet, please come to the front,” but those who are at a distance where they can’t see the dolphins at that point cannot move forward.

This is because those who have seen the dolphins do not give up their spots.

The staff warns not to touch the dolphins beforehand, but even when someone tried to touch them, they didn’t seem to pay much attention.

It’s possible that the group I participated in had a lot of people, and that’s why there were such guests.

At the very least, I felt that it was an unfair tour where some people could see many dolphins while others could not, even though we all paid the same amount.

I don’t think the number of people who can board the boat is the same as the number of people who can enjoy the tour.

It’s dangerous to be kicked by fins, and I think it would have been better to sign up for an experience where you can swim with dolphins at an aquarium instead of insisting on wild dolphins.

イルカは数回、見えました。
贅沢かもしれませんが、それでもツアーとしては
この評価です。

まず、船に乗る際は早めに行きましょう。
スタッフに奥から詰めるように言われますが
分かっている人は手前に座ります。

手前に座っている人から海に飛び込むため
イルカの場所を把握しているスタッフさんの
近くの場所を確保しやすいからです。

また、自分の下に荷物のかごがないと不便なので
下にかごがある場所に座りましょう。

スタッフさんの近くまで泳ぐのは必至で泳ぎます。
他のお客さんに蹴られますし、手で押しのけられますが負けずに進みましょう。

イルカを見た後スタッフの方が
「一度もイルカを見ていない人は前に」といいますが
その時点でイルカが見えない距離にいる人は
前に行けません。

イルカを見た人が前を譲らないからです。

イルカには触らないようにとスタッフの方が事前に注意していますが
触ろうとした人がいても、特に注意をしていませんでした。

私が参加した回が人数が多く、たまたまそういうお客さんだった
可能性もありますが、

すくなくとも、同じお金を払い同じ回に参加したとしても
たくさん見れる人と見れない人がいる不公平なツアーだと感じました。

船に乗れる人数とツアーを楽しめる人数は同じではないと思います。

フィンのついた足で蹴られるので危ないですし
別に野生のイルカにこだわらなくても
水族館のイルカと泳げるものに申し込んだ方がよかったと思っています。

We had the most wonderful morning! The boat was clean and the staff was excellent. We even saw dolphins! We will definitely be taking this tour again!

The sunset is beautiful. If you want to feel the essence of Hawaii, I recommend this. The food is generally delicious, and there is a good variety. The cruise lasts about two hours, so the kids might get a little bored, but I think it's a good value for adults to enjoy at a leisurely pace.

夕陽がきれい。ハワイらしさをまず感じるなら、おススメです。料理も普通に美味しく、品揃えもあります。
クルーズ時間が2時間くらいありますので、子供が少し飽きてきますが、大人がゆっくり楽しむにはコスパ良いと思います。

What an experience!! Great food, entertainment and I think we got the best server!! Darian was amazing! Would do it again!

I did the Green Room package which was neat being able to go back stage to see how things work behind the scenes along with being able to sit right in front of the stage to eat and watch the show which gave you a great view being so close to the performers. I like how they always include a local artist to perform too, so you are able to see not only Michael Jackson and Elvis but someone local as well. It's also nice that everything is indoors so you don't have to worry about the weather ruining your plans.

This is my third Luau that I have been to so far and this one is by far my favorite! The crew is so nice and attentive and I loved how Chief Sielu is so family oriented. He made several points to bring guests on stage and include them in the show and they even had a special moment for two children through the Make A Wish Foundation that were there which was so sweet!
You are entertained all night long whether it's by the dancing, the Chief's jokes or the amazing fire dancers. I would also highly recommend the Royal package, we had great seats up front and were one of the first in line for the buffet.

It was my first time participating in a tour, and I had a great time! The staff were all cheerful, and even though I didn't participate in snorkeling, there were various free floats and equipment available, which was fun! The food was delicious, and I got to see sea turtles, so it was a very satisfying tour!

初めてのツアー参加でしたが、楽しく参加させてもらいました！スタッフは皆さん明るくシュノーケルは参加しませんでしたが、無料の浮輪や道具が色々あり楽しかったです！ご飯も美味しく海ガメも見れて大満足のツアーでした！
