All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

The Toa Luau was a great first luau for our family (30 to 60 year olds). Waimea Valley itself is beautiful; definitely come at least 2 hours early to be able to walk to the waterfall and enjoy the scenery. The pre-luau activities like weaving grass head bands, husking coconuts etc were fun. The show itself was fantastic too - they performed authentic ceremonies and dances from different Polynesian islands. The host was hilarious! Only slight downside was the food was only mediocre. We are all vegetarian and our main entree was bland quinoa; but we were happy there was even a vegetarian option (you have to request ahead of time though). Overall this luau is definitely worth it and we will recommend it to all of our family and friends!!

Everything was amazing! First of all, Mr. Gaito's guidance was very thorough, which made me feel secure participating in the tour. The BBQ hamburger was also juicy and incredibly delicious! Above all, I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Hawaii! At the sandbar, I took photos right in the middle of the sea and admired the beautiful water. During the sea turtle watching, although they were a bit far away, I encountered two sea turtles. While snorkeling, I was able to swim alongside a sea turtle! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely love to participate once more!

全てが最高でした！
まず、ガイトさんの案内が非常に丁寧で安心してツアーに参加することが出来ました。BBQハンバーガーも肉汁が溢れてとても美味しかったです！
そして何よりハワイの海を満喫出来ました！サンドバーでは海のど真ん中で写真を撮ったり、綺麗な海を眺めたり。ウミガメウォッチングでは少し遠目ではありましたが、ウミガメ２匹と遭遇。シュノーケリングでは何とウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました！
またハワイに行く機会があれば是非もう一度参加したいです！

This tour was amazing. The crew were all super friendly and knowledgeable. The turtles were incredibly close and simply beautiful. Highly recommend this experience!

I participated with my daughter. The staff members were very kind and fun people. We were able to go to places we couldn't reach on our own and met many turtles, even swimming with them! It was a wonderful tour. However... I am very prone to seasickness, and I forgot to bring motion sickness medication to the hotel (tears), so I wasted half of the tour (free time) unable to do anything. I am really disappointed about that. I truly think the tour itself, including the staff, was absolutely amazing! I plan to take revenge next time (^o^)/

娘と二人で参加しました。スタッフの皆さんがとても親切で楽しい方々でした。自力では行けない場所に行け沢山の亀さんにも会え、一緒に泳ぐ事が出来る！とても素晴らしいツアーでした。ただ…私がとても波酔い船酔いしやすいのに、ホテルに酔い止め薬を忘れて（涙）ツアー半分（自由時間）を何も出来ない状態で無駄にしてしまいました。その事が残念でなりません。ツアーは自体はスタッフの方々含め本当に本当に最高だと思います！次回またリベンジするつもりです(^o^)/

The sandbar was beautiful even without the sand. It seems to depend on the weather, so it really is a matter of luck. The staff were very accommodating, and they took photos for us. The hamburgers grilled on the boat were delicious, and I enjoyed snorkeling for the first time without any worries. We scattered bread for the fish, so we got to see a lot of tropical fish, which made for a happy time.

サンドバーは砂が出ていなくても色が綺麗でした。お天気によるそうなので、これは本当に運です。
スタッフの対応がとても良くて、写真も撮ってもらいました。
船で焼いてくれるハンバーガーも美味しかったし、生まれて初めての
シュノーケリングも何も心配なく楽しめました。餌のパンを撒くので
とてもたくさんの熱帯魚に会えて、幸せな時間でした。

This was an amazing experience! I went with a group of friends and we all loved the environment of the cruise ship. The food was pretty amazing and the live jazz performance was very enjoyable. My favorite was definitely the Polynesian live dance performance. This 30-minute performance was the highlight of the night. The dancers wouldn't just perform, they would interact with the audience by giving high fives, springing peace signs at unexpected times and made our corner of the ship laugh the entire time. If you get seasick easily, I would recommend taking some kind of precaution/medication (the servers were able to provide some medication, too) since a few of my friends did start feeling queasy for a little bit and had to spend some time on the lower deck. However, don't let motion sickness keep you from the cruise! It was still altogether wonderful time.

The site mentioned it was about 1.5 feet, but in reality, the depth where we got off the boat was 130 cm, and in shallow areas, it was around 80 cm. The weather was nice, so the scenery was beautiful!

We were able to see sea turtles about three times, and the kids were thrilled.

The snorkeling experience was as expected, but since it was our first time, I felt reassured by the staff's safety-first attitude.

For those who didn't participate in snorkeling, we had some playtime with the equipment, and thanks to the small number of kids, my child (5 years old, who can float but can't swim) was able to snorkel near the boat. One of the staff members spoke Japanese, and everyone was friendly, making it a fun experience.

I managed without marine shoes, but since Waikiki Beach has quite a few painful stones, I thought it would have been better to buy them for the entire stay in Hawaii.

サイトでは1.5feetくらいでしたが、実際はボートから降りた地点で130cm、浅いところで80cm程度でした。天気が良かったこともあり充分景色はきれいでした！
ウミガメも3回くらい見れて子供は大喜びでした。

シュノーケルはこんなもんかといった感じでしたが、初めてやるぶんにはスタッフの方が安全第一の姿勢だったので安心できました。

シュノーケル不参加組は道具を出して頂いてお遊びタイムでしたが、子供が少なかったおかげか、うちの子（5歳、プールに浮かべるが泳げない）はボートの近くでシュノーケルをさせていただいたようです。
スタッフの方は日本語ができる方が1名はおり、皆さんフレンドリーで楽しく過ごせました。

マリンシューズは無くても何とかなりましたが、ワイキキビーチも結構石が痛いのでハワイ滞在全体を通して買えば良かったと思いました。

I participated with my 5-year-old and 8-year-old children, and the sea was beautiful, we saw turtles, and the hamburgers we ate on the boat were fantastic. More than that, the crew's consideration for the children and their cheerful attitude made me want to join again.

5歳と8歳の子供連れで参加しましたが、海も綺麗し亀も見れて船の上で食べるハンバーガーも最高でした。それ以上にクルーの人の子供への配慮や陽気な感じ、また参加したいと思いました。

I couldn't get a reservation for the Star of Honolulu, so I booked this one instead. It felt a bit smaller than the Star of Honolulu (the Star of Honolulu has four decks, while the Majestic has three).

I had a meal in the first-floor seating, and while the buffet menu was generally good, I couldn't eat the mushrooms or drink the water. The mushrooms tasted like they were rehydrated from powder and weren't good, and the water had a chlorine smell (the American elderly couple at my table complained about it as well). There was live music on the second floor, which was played over the ship's speakers. It seemed to feature quite a bit of older country music. Songs like "Stand By Me" had everyone on board singing along, creating a nice atmosphere. The third floor was the only open deck.

The fireworks lasted about five minutes, which was a nice way to wrap up the cruise. It seemed like the Star of Honolulu was anchored off Diamond Head the whole time, but this one was cruising around, which was a plus.

スターオブホノルル号の予約が取れず、こちらを予約。スターオブホノルル号より一回り小さい感じでした(スターオブホノルル号は4階、マジェスティック号は3階)。
1階席で食事を取りましたが、ビュッフェのメニューは概ね良かったものの、マッシュルームと水はいただけない。マッシュルームは、粉末を水で戻した感じで美味しくないし、水はカルキ臭い(同席していた米国人老夫婦も文句たらたら)。2階席で生演奏が行われていて、それが艦内放送でずっと流されていました。割と古めのカントリーが多かった感じ。スタンド・バイ・ミーとか、艦内の皆でサビを斉唱するなど、良い雰囲気。3階のみがオープンデッキ。
花火は5分程度でしたが、クルーズの最後の〆として良い感じでした。
スターオブホノルル号は、ダイヤモンドヘッド沖にずっと停泊しているようでしたが、こちらはずっとクルーズしていたのも○。

The weather was unfortunately cloudy, but the bus transfer staff and the Japanese staff were very nice, even giving me advice on my GoPro.

The local staff were cheerful and energetic, making for a very enjoyable tour!

I was able to see many sea turtles, and the BBQ lunch after snorkeling was delicious. I really enjoyed the ocean at the sandbar!

天気はあいにくの曇でしたが、

If you go during Christmas, please be sure to experience it. Especially if you have children. For those who are not familiar with Hawaii, I recommend taking a tour. Especially at night, as the trolleys do not run.

クリスマスに行かれた方は　是非体験してください
お子様連れは　特に
ハワイに慣れていない方は　ツアーをお勧めします
特に夜は　トロリーも走っていないので

I had to wait to board the boat, but during that time, I was able to go to the restroom. It was cloudy at departure, but once we got out to sea, the weather turned nice, which was great. When we arrived at the sandbar, the water was up to my waist, but we had fun playing beach volleyball, and afterwards, we enjoyed delicious hamburgers! It was the best! Everything except alcohol was free, and there were many options, so it might be good for kids as well. After that, we moved on to look for turtles, and luckily, we even saw a manta ray by chance. Then we went snorkeling around the coral, and I got a bit exhausted, but I managed to swim. I got so caught up in the fun that I ended up with a sunburn. Make sure to apply sunscreen regularly (laughs). Yuki, who guided us, explained everything clearly, and the other members were nice too! Thank you very much.

船に乗るのに待たされましたがその間にトイレに行けました。出発時は曇っていましたが沖に出たら良い天気になって良かったです。サンドバーに着いたら腰あたりまで海水がありましたが楽しくビーチバレーで遊んで、その後美味しいハンバーガー！最高でした！アルコール以外は無料で種類も多いのでお子様にも良いのではないでしょうか。その後移動して亀探し、ラッキーなことに偶然マンタまで見れました。その後シュノーケリング珊瑚の周りを1周してちょっとヘトヘトになりましたがなんとか泳げました。遊びに夢中になりすぎて全身日焼けしました。日焼け止めはコマ目に塗りましょう（笑）案内してくれたユキさん説明がわかりやすく、他のメンバーも良い方でした！ありがとうございました。

I walked from the hotel where I was staying to the pickup location. Since only the hotel name was written down, I went to that place, and because it was in a back alley, while I was waiting, a large bus arrived. I was given a waterproof wristband and boarded the bus, arriving at Wet 'n' Wild about 30 to 40 minutes later! I went through a bag check at the entrance. The large coin locker costs $16. Only card payments were accepted. It's essential to wear your swimsuit under your clothes. The changing rooms are quite basic. The kids' pool is safely monitored, and there were lifeguards present. There are many slide pools, and since I went on a weekday, even though there were lines, I only had to wait a few minutes, and I had a lot of fun! I want to go again next time!

ピックアップ場所に泊まっているホテルから歩いていきました。ホテルの名前だけ書いていたので、その場所まで行き、裏通りだったので、
待っていたら大きいバスがきて、手首に濡れても大丈夫な紙を巻かれてバスに乗って30~40分後にウエットアンドワイルドに到着！
入り口で持ち物検査受けて入りました。

平日に行ったので並ぶといっても数分で
かなり楽しめました！
また次回も行きたいです！

This excursion was so much fun. The staff went out of their way to make our time great. The hamburgers were great and the alcoholic drinks were available for $5 which is a good price here. We saw Manta Rays which they said wasn’t so common and two giant turtles.

(1) When I arrived around 11 o'clock, the water level was up to my waist due to the tides. It's not sandy like in the pictures, so those who want to stay dry should be careful.
(2) I swam near the coral reef where I could see fish up close while snorkeling. I took off my glasses and injured my knee on the shallow coral reef. Those with poor eyesight should be careful.

⑴ 私が到着した11時頃は潮の関係で腰まで水位がありました。写真のような砂地ではありませんので濡れたくない人はご注意ください。
⑵ シュノーケリングで魚が身近に見える珊瑚礁付近を泳ぎました。メガネを外していたので浅瀬の珊瑚礁で膝を怪我しました。目の悪い方、ご注意ください。

Easy and convenient way to get to and from the Waikele Outlets. Coupon booklet was a great bonus and added to the savings. Would highly recommend adding a 4:00pm shuttle to the service as I could have shopped for longer.

I had wanted to go for a long time, and this time my wish came true. The weather wasn't very good, but even in the shallowest areas, the water depth was up to my knees. I should have checked the tide times a bit more and planned my schedule accordingly. After that, I went to Maui, and the ocean there was definitely much more beautiful. I got to see turtles!

ずっと行きたかったのですが、今回念願叶い参加しました。天気もあまりよくなかったこともありますが、一番浅いところでもひざ下までの水深で、もう少し満ち引きの時間を調べて日程を決めればよかったです。
その後Mauiに行きましたが、海は断然そちらの方が綺麗でした。
亀には会えました！

I joined because I wanted to meet sea turtles. The weather wasn't great, but the captain grilled the BBQ patties, which were thick and delicious. It was my first experience playing beach volleyball, and everyone from different countries cooperated, making it much more fun than I expected.

ウミガメに会いたくて参加しましたお天気がイマイチでしたが、BBQのパテは船長さんが焼いてくれ、分厚くて美味しかったですビーチバレー初体験でしたが、多国籍のみんなが協力して思った以上にメチャ楽しかったです

It might have been because of the rain, but I felt like, "Where's the sandbar???" There was no white sandy beach anywhere, the sea was murky, and the scenery was the worst.
However, the crew members were very cheerful and kind, which made for a fun time!

雨だったせいもあるけど、サンドバーどこ？？？?って感じで、白い砂浜なんてどこにもなく、海はにごり、景色は最悪でした。
でもクルーのみなさんはとても陽気で優しくておかげで楽しい時間になりました！

On the day of our visit, the weather was unusually rainy (a flood warning was issued), but on the contrary, there were fewer customers, which made it enjoyable. However, some of the slide attractions were closed, which unfortunately affected my overall rating. I believe it's a facility where children can have a great time, so I hope everyone else enjoys it too.

当日は、稀に見る雨の天候(洪水注意報出ていました)でしたが、逆にお客さんが少なくて楽しめました。ただ、スライダー系のアトラクションは、おやすみしている物もあり、そこは評価を下げざるおえない感じです。お子様も十分楽しめる施設だと思いますので、皆さんにも楽しんで頂きたいです。

It was absolutely wonderful.
It was unfortunate that the weather was rainy.
Last time, I was able to see dolphins and the weather was perfect...
Next time, I will check the weather forecast before making a reservation.

最高に気持ちよかったです。
雨模様の天気だったのが残念でした。
前回はイルカも見れてお天気も最高に良かったのですが・・・
次回は天気予報確認してから予約させていただきます。

I reserved the front row guaranteed seats. We arrived around 16:40, but there were already about 15 people in line. We didn't know where the entrance was and ended up walking all the way around the Hilton, so I recommend getting there as early as possible! The show is definitely worth it. The muscular men are mesmerizing. I especially recommend taking videos of the fire show and the finale so you can look back at them later. It's better not to have high expectations for the buffet. We didn't have much of an appetite due to jet lag, so we just had a light meal and then relaxed at the bar afterward. There are other luaus, but this one is calm and I recommend it for travelers who don't have much time!

前方確約席を予約。
16:40頃に到着しましたが、既に15名ほどの方が並んでいました。
私たちは入口が分からず、ヒルトンをぐるっと一周してしまったので、なるべく早めに行く事をお勧めします！！
ショーは見応え十分。
ムキムキの男性陣にうっとりします。
特にファイヤーショーと、フィナーレは動画にとると、後で見返せるのでお勧めです。
ブッフェは期待しないほうが良いですね。
私達は時差ボケの為あまり食欲が無かったので軽く食べて、終わった後にのんびりバーに行きました。
他にもフラショーはありますが、ここは落ち着いて観れるし、時間がない旅行者の方にもお勧めです！

I booked a day pass tour with transportation included. It was cloudy that day, so it was very quiet. The venue opened at 10:30, and I was able to enter right away. The locker instructions were easy to understand, and I could rent one without any hassle.

Thanks to the low crowd, I was able to enjoy the attractions without much waiting. However, due to the limited number of staff, some attractions were closed at certain times, so I recommend adjusting your schedule accordingly.

For lunch, I found hamburgers and pizza at the concession stand, which I could enjoy on a nearby bench. The area was more compact than I expected, and since it was not crowded, I was able to experience all the attractions and have plenty of fun until the bus departure at 15:00.

The attractions were more thrilling than I anticipated, making me want to experience them again and again. I definitely want to go back!

１日利用券の送迎付きツアーを申し込みました。
この日は曇りだったので、非常に空いてました。10時半開場で、すぐ入場することができました。ロッカーの案内もすぐわかることができ、簡単に借りられました。
空いているおかげで、アトラクションにもほとんど並ぶことなく乗ることができました。ただし、スタッフの人数も少ないせいか、時間帯によっては閉まっていたりしたので、時間をズラして回ることをおすすめします。
昼ご飯は売店でハンバーガーやピザが売っていたので、近くのベンチで食べることができました。
広さは思ったよりもコンパクトで、空いていたので、ひと通りのアトラクションを体験することができ、15時集合のバスまで十分に楽しむことができました。
アトラクションは思ったよりもスリルがあったので、何回でも体験したくなるものばかりでした。
是非とももう一度行ってみたいと思います。

Since it was a trip to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary, we booked the Diamond Seat. The front row center seat was impressive. I'm glad we chose the Diamond option. The meal was a buffet, and while it wasn't exceptionally delicious, it was decent. There was also a separate dessert buffet with pineapple cake and fruits. Each person received three drink tickets, but we couldn't use them all. The performers engaged with the audience, calling out to people and dancing on stage, which made it lively and interactive. After leaving the venue, we were able to take photos with the performers (no tips required).

Negative points: The meeting location had changed. It would have been helpful to have directional signs along the way to reach the location. I felt anxious while searching around.

両親の結婚50周年祝いの旅行だったため、ダイヤモンドシートで予約。最前列中央席で迫力があった。ダイヤモンドにしてよかった。食事は、バイキングで特別美味しいという程ではないが、まあまあでした。デザートも別にバイキングあり、パイナップルケーキやフルーツ。ドリンクチケット1人3枚づつあったが、使い切れなかった。パフォーマーの方が、客席の人に声をかけ、ステージで踊ったりと参加型で盛り上がった。会場を出たところで、パフォーマーの方達と写真を撮ることができた(チップ不要)
マイナスポイント:集合場所が変更となっていた。また、場所までたどり着くための途中に案内表示などがあったらよかった。不安なまま探し回ってあせった。

I have been watching it every year since I saw it three years ago (^o^)
It's wonderful every time.
I especially love Michael Jackson's songs and dances ♪
Each time he was different, but the quality is high (^o^)

三年前に観てから毎年観ています(^o^)
毎回、素晴らしいです
特にマイケルジャクソンの歌とダンスが大好きです♪
毎回違うマイケルでしたがクオリティが高いです(^o^)

I really felt like I was in Hawaii.
It's something you should definitely see at least once when you come to Hawaii.
Making a reservation was also very easy.
Amazing!!

ハワイだな〜〜と実感しました。
ハワイに来たら一度は見るべき
予約も簡単にとれまささた。
最高！！

I booked this as a memory for our honeymoon. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The show was also very impressive, and I enjoyed it a lot. Since we were in the front row, I was very happy to shake hands with the stars and receive gifts. After the performance, there was a photo session with the cast, which became a wonderful memory.

新婚旅行の思い出として申し込みました。
料理もおいしく、サービスも充実してました。
ショーも見応えあるものでとても楽しめました。
最前列での鑑賞だったので、スターとの握手やプレゼントを頂きとても嬉しかったです。
終演後、出演者との撮影会もあり、良い思い出になりました。

Sailing tour from Hilton Hawaiian Village.
The weather was great, and we saw sea turtles swimming before departure.
Once we set sail, we enjoyed dolphins jumping and splashing.
The views were fantastic, and it was the best tour ever.

It seems that a sandy beach forms in the middle of the sea due to the tides, but when I participated, the water was already up to my waist, so I couldn't walk on the beach.

I went snorkeling to see turtles and fish in deeper areas, but I gave up halfway. I was thinking, "Oh, I wanted to see them..." when the staff called a turtle over (was it their pet? lol), and I was able to swim with the turtle in shallower water! So, don't worry if you can't snorkel... it's not a big deal!

After that, we played on stand-up paddleboards and had a BBQ lunch on the boat! The food was really delicious!! The staff were bright and funny people! I wish I had given them a tip (;^_^A.

満ち引きによって海の真ん中に砂浜ができるみたいなのですが、私が参加したときはもう腰くらいまで海水があって砂浜を歩くことはできませんでした。

シュノーケルで深いところまで行ってカメや魚を見るのですが、私は途中までいって断念。あーあ、見たかったなー・・・と思っていたらスタッフさんがカメを呼んでくれて（スタッフさんのペット？笑）浅いところでもカメと泳ぐことができました！
ですからシュノーケルできないし・・・と残念に思わなくて大丈夫です！
そのあとはスタンドアップボードで遊んだり、船の上でBBQランチ！
料理がとてもおいしかったです！！
スタッフさんも明るくて面白い方でした！チップ渡せばよかった(;^_^A

My family had a great time. Thanks Riley and your team for an outstanding customer service, very well organized and awesome hospitality.
