All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

We sailed Christmas Day and it was the perfect way to spend the day. The crew were friendly and we had a great sail - well worth the cost

We participated as a three-generation family. The weather was perfect on the day of our visit, with clear skies, no wind, and calm seas. I had read past comments about the bus being cold, so bringing a long-sleeve shirt was a good decision.

We reserved our spot at the sandbar on a day and time when the tide was low during our stay in Hawaii, and it turned out just as expected (the water was shallow, about knee-deep). It was actually great for the kids to practice snorkeling. When I asked the staff to take photos, they took many wonderful pictures for us.

During snorkeling around the coral, we were lent floating sticks, which allowed my 6-year-old and 8-year-old to hold on and swim, and they were thrilled to see many fish. The staff were friendly, the weather was favorable, and we had a memorable and wonderful experience!

３世代で参加しました。当日はよく晴れて風もなく海も穏やかで最高の天気でした。
過去のコメントでバスの車内が冷えるとあったので長袖を持参して正解でした。
サンドバーはハワイ滞在中で潮位が低い日、時間帯を調べて予約したので、予想通りでした(浅いところで膝上くらい)。子どもたちがシュノーケルの練習ができたので、逆にちょうどよかったです。スタッフの方に写真撮影をお願いしたら、とても素敵な写真をたくさん撮ってくださいました。
珊瑚周辺でのシュノーケルのときは浮く棒を貸してもらえたので、６歳と８歳の子どもはそれにつかまって泳ぎ、たくさんの魚を見ることができて大喜びでした。
スタッフの方たちも気さくで、天気にも恵まれ、思い出に残る素敵な体験ができました！

We participated as a family of six (including three members in their 60s)! We signed up for the normal grade, but due to some mix-up, it seems the best seats were booked for us, and since it was fully booked on the day, we enjoyed the show from the front row. The impact was completely different!

We were able to go get the buffet early and enjoyed both the shell lei and the fresh flower lei, which made the family very happy! We took lots of photos, and everyone had the best smiles. I even got a drawing of my favorite honu (sea turtle) done with magic, which was super exciting!

Since it was a Polynesian show, we experienced various performances like hula, Tahitian, and Maori, and we received a lot of energy from it. At the end, we also got to take photos with the handsome and beautiful dancers, which made the older members of the family very happy (laughs).

After returning home, we kept talking about how great and fun the show was; it seems to have left a lasting impression. We definitely want to participate again, and of course, in the best seats!

家族６人(内３名は60代)で参加しました！
ノーマルグレードで申し込んだのですが、何かの手違いか一番良いお席がブッキングされていたようで、当日は満席のためそのまま最前列で楽しませて頂きました。やはり迫力が全然違います！
ブュッフェも早めに取りに行かせてもらいシェルレイと生花のレイと２つ頂き、家族は大喜び！
写真もたくさんとって頂き皆最高の笑顔でした♪
マジックで大好きなホヌ(海亀)を書いてもらい、めちゃあがりました！
ポリネシアショーなのでフラ、タヒチ、マオリなど様々でエネルギーを沢山頂きました。
最後に美男美女ダンサーさんたちと写真もとれて年配組も大喜びでした(笑)
帰ってきてからも、ショー良かったね楽しかったねと一番印象に残ったようです。
ぜひまた、参加したいです。もちろん一番良いお席で♪

We are from Argentina. The tour was amazong and the driver very kind, he explains everithing and always arrived in time. Beautiful experience.

The whole trip was very pleasent enjoyed the food and staff were very helpful

I searched for various luaus and chose Hilton Hawaiian Village this time. It was an impressive luau, and the venue was packed. The food was average, but it was definitely the right choice to get the premium seats; being guided to the very front was fantastic!

ルアウショウーをいろいろ検索して今回ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジを選択しました、迫力のルアウでした、会場も満席でした、食事はこんな感じで普通でした、プレミアムシートで正解でした一番前に案内されとても良かった！

Honestly, I didn't have high expectations, but I enjoyed it more than I thought. There were more sea turtles than I expected, and I was lucky enough to encounter a manta ray. The sandbar was deeper than I imagined, so it was a bit different from what I pictured. I joined without knowing what to do at the sandbar, but it was great to experience snorkeling.

正直、あまり期待してませんでしたが思ったより楽しめました。ウミガメは予想以上に多く、運良くマンタにも遭遇できました。サンドバーは思ったより深かったので、イメージとは少し違いました。また、サンドバーで何をするのか不明なまま参加したのですが、シュノーケリングを体験したのが良かったです。

I participated in January.
I could hardly see any turtles, just catching a glimpse of them far out at sea.
And it was only for a moment.

The sandbar was just a shallow area up to my waist, even for adults, and it was completely unimpressive.
Many participants who joined thinking there would be a beach in the middle of the ocean ended up spending most of their time on the boat because the water was too cold in winter, which was very disappointing.

I believe the tours should either be held during the season when there are many turtles or only during the season when there is a beach.

１月に参加しました。
亀もほとんど見れずに
遠く海上に出てくるのを見るだけ。
しかも、一瞬。

サンドバーも、大人でも腰ぐらいある浅瀬で
まったく感動なし。
海のど真ん中に砂浜があるという触れ込みで参加されていた方も
結局冬で水が冷たくて結局船で過ごされていた方も多く、
とても残念です。

やはり、亀がたくさんいるシーズンにするか
砂浜があるシーズンのみツアーを開催するべきです。

It was quite far, but I was able to see whales. I took photos before getting on the boat, and they were being distributed on the boat, but I wasn't sure if it was part of the service. I didn't receive any photos... However, it was great that there were photos of the whales taken by the staff with a telephoto lens available for purchase.

何とか遠でしたが、クジラを見ることができました。
船に乗る前に写真を撮って、船で配ってましたが、サービスだったのでしょうか。
よくわからず、写真もらえず。。
スタッフの人が望遠レンズで撮ったクジラの写真が販売されていて、よかった。

We participated as a couple. We checked the low tide times in advance and joined the morning plan to match the low tide during our stay. Since this was our first time participating, I'm not sure about other times, but I believe the scenery is definitely beautiful during low tide. While it's precious to see the sandbar completely exposed at the lowest tide, personally, I think the best view is when there's a thin layer of seawater just before and after that.

The snorkeling was a bit chilly, but we were thrilled to get quite close to a sea turtle! (It was a little scary being too close, though...)

The local staff were very lively and fluent in Japanese, which helped create a great atmosphere. They prepared warm soup after snorkeling, and there were towels laid out on each seat in the return bus, showing great attention to detail. This tour is definitely recommended.

夫婦で参加させていただきました。
事前に干潮の時間を調べて、ちょうど滞在期間中の干潮の時間に合わせて午前のプランで参加しました。今回が初めての参加なので他の時間はわかりませんが、やはり干潮の時が綺麗だと思います。最も潮が引いてサンドバーが完全に見えているときも貴重ですが、個人的にはその前後のうっすらと海水が乗っているときの景色がベストだと思います。

シュノーケリングは少し肌寒かったですが、たまたまウミガメとかなり接近することができ大興奮でした!（近すぎると逆に少し恐かったですが…）

現地のスタッフの方も、とてもノリが良く日本語もペラペラで、いい感じに盛り上げてくださいました。
シュノーケリング後に温かいスープを用意してくださったり、帰りのバスでは各座席にタオルが敷いてあったり、とても配慮が行き届いていたと思います。
間違いなくオススメのツアーです。

The weather was sunny with occasional clouds, but there was wind, and it was surprisingly cold. The sandbar had water levels up to my knees. Snorkeling at the coral reef had life jackets available, but it seemed deep and was scary for the children. We were lucky to see a sea turtle while snorkeling.

天気は晴れ時々くもりでしたが、風があり、意外と寒かったです。サンドバーは膝下くらいの水位でした。サンゴ礁にてのシュノーケリングは、ライフジャケットはありましたが、深くて子供には怖かったようです。シュノーケリングではウミガメも見れてラッキーでした。

We spent Christmas in Hawaii and went on this excursion and absolutely loved it!!! The crew was fabulous and we would do this excursion again!!! The sandbar was soooo cool and playing volleyball on it was so fun fun!!!

The weather was nice, and I had high hopes, but unfortunately, I didn't get to see any whales. However, I enjoyed the views of Diamond Head and other sights from the sea. I was so focused on the direction where the photographer was aiming his camera, hoping to spot a whale, that I ended up feeling a bit seasick.

The lunch buffet might be a bit disappointing if you imagine it by Japanese standards; it felt more like a school cafeteria lunch. If you stay out on the deck trying to see whales, you might miss out on eating. Once you head back, the food will be cleared away, so it's better to go inside and eat at your convenience.

Even though they say there is a "Japanese guide," the person who picks you up and the one explaining about the whales both spoke English. There might have been someone who could speak Japanese somewhere, but you need to look at the photo materials on the boat to learn about the whales yourself.

If you don't see any whales, the tour is just a boat ride out to sea and back to the port, so whether you enjoy it or not really depends on luck.

天気も良く期待していましたが残念ながらクジラには会えませんでした。
しかし、海から見るダンヤモンドヘッドなどの景色は楽しめました。
カメラマンがカメラを構えている方向にクジラが出るのかと海面に目を見張っていたせいか、ちょっと船酔いしてしまいました。
ランチビュッフェは日本基準で想像するとちょっとがっかりかもしれません。学食のランチのような感じです。クジラを見ようとずっとデッキに出ていると食べ損ねてしまいます。帰路についたら片付けられてしまうので適当に中に入って食べたほうがいいです。
「日本語ガイド」といっても送迎の人も、クジラの説明の人も英語です。おそらくどこかに日本語ができる人がいたのかもしれません。自分で船内の写真資料を見てクジラのことを知る必要があります。
クジラが見られなければ港から沖に船で出て帰ってくるだけのツアーですので楽しめるかどうかは「運」次第です。

I participated in a breakfast-only tour.

It rained on and off from the time we departed until we reached Angel's Beach, but we were able to see sea turtles, and by the time we arrived at Angel's Beach, the weather had cleared up, so I am satisfied with the tour content.

For this tour, we traveled to the site with two buses, but one of the pick-up buses took a long time to arrive... In the end, it was about 45 minutes after the first bus left that they finally came to pick us up.

The guide who was with us on the way seemed to leave because they were going to the next tour time, and they said, "Please wait here. If it rains, wait over there (at the public restroom with a roof)!!" which made me feel very anxious.

I never expected to feel so uncomfortable just because the buses were different, even though it was the same tour. It's really disappointing because the content of the tour was very good.

朝食のみのツアーに参加しました。
出港時〜天使の海に行くまでの間雨が降ったりやんだりを
繰り返していたのですが、ウミガメは見ることができましたし、天使の海に着いた頃には晴れていたのでツアーの内容には満足しています。

今回のツアーは２台のバスで現地まで行ったのですが
迎えのバスのうち１台がなかなか来ず。。。
最終的に１台目のバスが出発してから４５分ほどたってやっと迎えに来てくれる・・・といった感じでした。

行きにはいてくださったガイドさんも次の時間帯のツアーにいくからなのか
【ここで待っていてください。雨が降ったらあそこ（屋根のある公衆トイレ）で待っていてください！！】という言葉を残し、行ってしまったのでとても不安な気持ちになりました。

同じツアーなのに
バスが違うだけでこんなに嫌な気持ちなるなんて思いませんでした。
ツアーの内容はとてもよかったので残念でなりません。

There are many attractions like the Jumbo Ocean Pool at Nagashima Spa Land. Moreover, the wait time is almost zero! I had a great time. However, due to the limited number of staff, there were some slides that couldn't be enjoyed at certain times, so you'll need to plan accordingly to experience all the rides.

ナガシマスパーランドのジャンボ海水プールみたいなアトラクションがたくさんあります。
しかも待ち時間ほぼ０！とても楽しめました。
ただ、スタッフが少ないからなのか、時間帯によっては楽しめないスライダーもあったので、全種類遊ぶためには工夫する必要があります。

A family with five children aged 4 to 14 participated. The weather was favorable, and we had truly wonderful views and experiences. The sea was a bit cold, so the 4-year-old couldn't stay in for too long, but they enjoyed it.

4歳から14歳まで子どもが５人の家族で参加しました。
天候に恵まれ、本当に素晴らしい景色と体験が出来ました。
海は少し寒かったので、4歳の子は余り長い時間入ってられませんでしたが、たのしめました。

It wasn't that close, but I was able to see the whales' spouts several times. The staff were very nice, and when I said I didn't understand English, they explained everything in Japanese. Even if I hadn't seen the whales, just cruising in the waters of Hawaii was very pleasant.

そんなに近くはなかったんですが、何度か鯨の潮吹き見れました。
スタッフさんもとてもいい方で、英語がわからないと言ったら日本語で説明してくれました。
クジラが見れなくてもハワイの海をクルージングしているだけでとても気持ち良かったです。

The day I participated was clear and the wind was gentle, making it incredibly beautiful! The contrast between the sea and the sky was stunning! I heard there are cloudy days as well, but when it's sunny, the view is breathtaking!! I want to go again!

参加させて頂いた日が快晴で風も穏やかだったのもあり、凄く綺麗でした！
海、空のコントラストが美しかったです！
曇りの時もあるみたいですが、晴れている時は絶景です！！ もう一度行きたいと思いました！！

I joined a morning tour. The guide was interesting and I had a great time, and I saw quite a few sea turtles. In the morning, when we got off the boat, the water was about waist-deep, and we walked a bit to the sandbar. Even so, it was still up to my knees. The sea was very beautiful.

朝出て行くツアーに乗りました。ガイドさんは面白くて楽しめましたし、ウミガメもかなり見えました。朝は船を降りると腰ぐらいまでの深さがあり、少し歩いてサンドバーに。それでも膝上くらいまではありました。海はとても綺麗でした。

This was the second year we took this tour. The check in crew, driver of the bus, and narrator were very friendly and courteous. It was a fun time for my family and I !

The sailing tour was my first experience, and it was incredibly refreshing. Lying on the net and listening to the sound of the waves made me feel like my whole body was being purified. I only nibbled on snacks and selected drinks, but I hardly touched them because I was so absorbed in sailing. If you get tired from shopping, taking this sailing tour could be a great way to refresh yourself, which is a typical way to enjoy Hawaii.

セーリングツアーは初めての体験でしたが超が付くほど気持ちいい。ネットに寝ながら波音を聞いていると全身が浄化されていくような感じがします。
スナックはつまむ程度、ドリンクはセレクトしましたが、セーリングに夢中でほとんど口にしませんでした。
お買い物に疲れたらこのセーリングツアーで気分転換するのもハワイらしい過ごし方かもしれません。

Even in Hawaii, it was cold in December. The half-day course was just right. I recommend it as a trial for those who want to try snorkeling. Since you just swim back and forth while looking at the coral, it was fine even if you’re not very confident in your swimming skills. As others have commented, the sandbar depends on the timing of the tides, so it was a bit disappointing. However, I was happy to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays!

ハワイと言えども、１２月寒かった。半日コースでちょうど良かったです。
シュノーケリング始めてみたい方にはお試しとしてお勧めです。
行列を作りながらサンゴを見て往復するだけなので泳ぎに多少自信がなくても大丈夫でした。
サンドバーは他の方もコメントしている通り、潮の満ち引きのタイミングもあるので残念ながらといった感じでした。
ただし、ウミガメはもちろん、マンタも見られたのでhappy!でした！

Unfortunately, we couldn't see any whales. While it's part of the luck of the draw, I wished there had been more entertaining activities to enjoy.

残念ながら、クジラは見ることができませんでした。これは時の運もあるのでしょうがないのですが、それ以外にもっと楽しませるエンターテイメントが欲しかった。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see any whales. The boat was quite rocky, and since the ride was long, I wouldn't recommend it for those who get motion sickness (I had hardly ever experienced seasickness, but I was completely affected this time). However, I did enjoy the scenery, so that was a positive aspect.

クジラが見れず残念だった。
船が揺れやすく、乗船時間が長いので、乗り物酔いをする人はおすすめできません（私は船酔いを殆どしたことがなかったのに、完全にやられましたから）。
景色は楽しめたのでその点は良かった。

Service and crew were great! Saw a couple humpback whales swimming from a distance. May have not been late enough in the season to see as much as expected.

I decided to go to Wet 'n' Wild after being recommended by my sister who lives in Hawaii. After arriving in Hawaii, I signed up and participated with my son and niece. Since we drove there with a rental car, my wife and daughter went shopping at a nearby shopping mall.

We arrived at the venue about five minutes after the opening time, but the ticket booth was open, and I was able to receive my tickets immediately after showing the voucher. Since bringing food and drinks into the park is prohibited, we had to dispose of our partially consumed drinks at the entrance. The lockers are assigned automatically; you just enter your preferred PIN, and you get a locker right away. A single large locker was sufficient for the three of us.

The facilities have a great variety of slides! Despite it being the year-end holiday season, we were able to ride most of the slides without any wait. There are single and three-person tubes available. You can freely take the tubes placed near the slide exits. We enjoyed our favorite slides and screamed together, having a fantastic time. (The Tornado was closed, and only two boats were in use for the Raging River, so we waited about an hour.)

When I asked the kids if they wanted to have lunch, they said it would be a waste of time, so we enjoyed the attractions, including the lazy river and wave pool, for as long as we could.

Hawaii has great beaches, but Wet 'n' Wild is definitely an experience I recommend! I look forward to enjoying it again next time!

ハワイ在住の妹から勧められ、ウェット・アンド・ワイルドに行くことを決めました。ハワイ到着後に申し込み、息子と姪の３人で参加しました。レンタカーで行ったので、妻と娘はすぐ近くのショッピングモールで買い物です。
開場時刻を５分ほど過ぎて現地に着きましたが、発券所は空いており、バウチャーを見せたらすぐにチケットを受け取ることが出来ました。
園内への飲食物は持ち込みが禁止されているため、飲みかけのドリンクは入り口で捨てていくことになりました。ロッカーも自動販売機で、好きな暗証番号を入力すればすぐにロッカーが割り当てられます。３人分の荷物も大サイズ１つで十分な大きさでした。

施設はスライダーが充実！年末の休暇中にもかかわらず、ほとんどのスライダーに待ち時間なく乗ることが出来ました。浮き輪も１人乗りから３人乗りまであります。スライダーの出口付近に置いてあるものを自由に持っていきます。それぞれ気に入ったスライダーを楽しんだり、３人で一緒に絶叫したりと、思いっきり盛り上がりました。
（トルネードは休止中で、レイジングリバーはボートが２つしか使われてなかったため、１時間ほど待ちました。）
子どもたちにランチを食べるかと聞いたら、遊ぶ時間がもったいないからということで、流れのあるプールや波の出るプールなど、時間いっぱいアトラクションを楽しみました。

ハワイは海もいいけれど、ぜひ体験してほしいウェット・アンド・ワイルドでした。
次回もまた、楽しみたいと思います！

I finally fulfilled my dream of swimming with dolphins! I was worried that the sea in December would be cold, but the weather was nice, and thanks to borrowing a wetsuit, I didn't feel cold at all. The crew spoke Japanese very well, which made me feel at ease.

The view from the boat while searching for dolphins was beautiful, with the green mountains and blue sea being absolutely stunning! With my heart racing, the time finally came to enter the water! Once in the sea, the crew dove down and brought up a starfish! Immediately, the photographer took pictures.

While we were doing this, I was told to look down, and when I did, I saw a pod of dolphins! I was so excited to see dolphins swimming so close and followed the pod. I encountered the dolphins multiple times, and I even got to see them jump out of the water, which was exhilarating the entire time!

I wanted to try stand-up paddleboarding during my free time, but due to the sea conditions, I couldn't, which was a bit disappointing. However, I did get to encounter a sea turtle, and I had a wonderful time!

The hamburgers made on the boat were delicious, and the photographer played the ukulele very well. The woman who danced the hula was also skilled, and there were many entertaining elements that kept us engaged.

At the end, we had photo opportunities at the helm, took pictures with the crew, and had a group photo with all participants, which was a lot of fun!

Since there were some people who got seasick, it might be a good idea for those who are anxious to take motion sickness medication for peace of mind.

ずっとイルカと泳ぎたいと思っていた夢が、やっと叶いました！
12月の海は冷たいかと心配していましたが、天気も良く、ウェットスーツを借りたおかげもあって寒さは感じませんでした。クルーの方が、日本語がお上手なので安心です。
イルカを見つけるまでの船からの景色も、とてもキレイで、山の緑と海のブルーが素晴らしかったです！
ドキドキしながら、いよいよ海に入る時が来ました！
海に入ると、クルーの方が潜ってスターフィッシュを取ってくれました！
すると、すかさずカメラマンの方が写真を撮ってくれました。
そうこうしていると、下を見て〜と言われ、下を見るとイルカの群れが！
こんなに近くを泳ぐイルカを見て興奮しながらイルカの群れについて行きました。
何度もイルカの群れに遭遇できたし、水上でイルカのジャンプも見れ、終始大興奮でした！
自由時間に、スタンドアップパドルに挑戦してみたいと思っていたのですが、海の状況で、できないとのことで、少し残念でした。
でも海ガメにも遭遇できとても楽しい時を過ごす事ができました！
そして、船上で作られたハンバーガーもおいしかったし、カメラマンのウクレレ演奏もお上手だし、フラを踊られた女性もお上手で、飽きさせない工夫がされていました。
最後は操縦席での写真撮影や、クルーの方達との写真撮影、参加者全員での写真撮影もあり、みんなで楽しむ事ができました！

船酔いされてる方がいたので、不安な方は酔い止めのお薬を飲まれた方が安心かもしれませんね。

We used it with our family, including a first grader and older children, in late December.

It was around the time when whale watching starts, and we considered a boat cruise, but thought it might be boring if we didn't see any whales, so we opted for a yacht, which turned out to be a good choice. It didn't sway much, and instead, it was refreshing to feel the thrill of the waves. However, my younger child seemed a bit scared at first from the rocking, so while it wasn't dangerous, it might have been a bit too early for them.

The cruise lasted an hour and a half, going around the other side of Diamond Head. On the way there, we felt excited, and on the way back, we were a bit more calm. Opinions might differ on whether it was worth the price, but I felt like I experienced Hawaii, and I was happy with it. As many have mentioned, I had been interested in beach yachts for a while, and even though the programs are different, it would cost two to three times more in Japan's Shonan.

By the way, it was fully booked with about 40 people, but our family was the only Japanese. I didn't understand much English, but since it was just about feeling the waves and the wind, language didn't really matter.

小１と高学年の子供と家族で、12月下旬に利用。

クジラが始まる頃で、船クルーズも考えたけど、見えなかったらツマラナイと思い、ヨットにしたけど良かったです。
そんなに揺れないし、むしろ波を感じる疾走感で爽快だったけど、下の子が、最初は波に揺られているのが怖い様子だったので、危険はないけど、ちょっと早かったかな。
ダイアモンドヘッドの向こう側まで回り込む一時間半のクルーズ。行きは気分が高揚、帰りは少し冷静にという感じなので、高い・安いは、ギリギリ意見が別れるかも知れないけど、ハワイ体験した気分になり、僕は良かったです。
みんなが書いている通り、前々からビーチのヨットが気になっていたし、日本の湘南だとプログラムは違えど、２～３倍はかかるし。

なお、約４０人の満員でしたが、日本人は我が家族のみ。英語は余り分からなかったけど、波を感じ風を感じるだけなので、言葉は関係ないですもんね。
