All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

We definitely go every year! The location is far, so it takes time to travel back and forth, but the American and wild attractions are so much fun. At first, I had to convince my family, who were hesitant, saying, "A pool in HAWAII?" (laughs)

There are many rides for two or three people, so it also allows for some bonding time.

Since it closes early, you can still have plenty of fun after returning to Waikiki, so I highly recommend it!

我が家は毎年、必ず行きます！
場所は遠いので、往復の移動時間は掛かりますが、アメリカンでワイルドなアトラクションが楽しいデス。
はじめは「ＨＡＷＡＩＩに来てまで、プール？」と渋る家族を説得して、行ったのですが（笑）

二人、三人で乗るライドも多いので、スキンシップにもなります。

早めの時間にクローズするので、ワイキキに戻ってからも、充分遊べるので、お薦めです！

Visiting the Poly. Cultural Center is a must do when visiting Ohau. This is a very enjoyable, educational and informative view of the Hawaiian Island. We had the VIP tour with a wonderful guide Wendy. Just when we thought it could not get any better we attended the theatrical show "Ha The Breath of Life" which was outstanding. What ever you do do not miss this.

Great time. Awesome value. Will return.

Is it only for Japanese people? All the participants were Japanese.
The staff was about half Japanese and half foreign. Everyone on the staff was very kind and energetic, which made it a lot of fun.

As for the weather on the day, it would definitely be more beautiful when it's sunny!

Is the sandbar's visibility above the water level just a matter of luck?
Unfortunately, when I went, it was not visible above the water and was submerged up to my knees.

日本人専用なのかな？参加者はすべて日本人でした。
スタッフも日本人と外国人半々くらいでした。スタッフの皆さんはとても親切で元気な人たちばかりで楽しかったですよ。


あとは当日の天候のみ、やっぱり晴れているときはキレイさが増すでしょう！！

サンドバーもどれくらい水面から出ているかは運次第？
私が行ったときは残念ながら水面からは出ておらず、膝位まで海水に沈んでました。

I participated at the request of my son, who is now in his first year of middle school. Our guide, Shin, was very attentive and there were no particular troubles. My son was able to dive properly. I think he did a great job for his first time. We encountered sea turtles twice. It was humorous to see them just floating and not moving much. The schools of fish seemed a bit sparse. Still, when I went in with the snorkel and had food in my hand, I was able to observe a large number of fish up close.

中学１年になった息子のリクエストで参加しました。ガイドのシンさんは、丁寧に教えてくれて特にトラブルはありませんでした。息子もちゃんと潜っていました。はじめてにしては上出来だったと思います。ウミガメに２回出会いました。ちょっとボ~ッとして動かないのがユーモラスでした。魚群は少し薄い感じがしました。それでも、シュノーケルで入ったとき餌を手にしていると多くの数の魚がまじかで観察できました。

When you think of Hawaii, you think of the ocean, but the water park was also a lot of fun. I had been to Wet 'n Wild in Florida before, so I made a reservation, and it was just as I expected; I had a great time.

ハワイといえば海ですが、ウォーターパークも大変楽しかったです。昔フロリダのウェット・アンド・ワイルドに行ったので、予約したのですが、期待通りで大変楽しめました。

Multiple slides are continuously closing.
There aren't enough floaties.
The operating hours for each activity are short.
It takes over 60 minutes to get there using the freeway from Waikiki.

The bodyboard lesson has no instruction or explanation,
but you can monopolize the wave pool for 30 minutes,
so you can ride the waves until you're tired.

The paved surfaces in the facility are so hot they can burn,
making it impossible to walk barefoot.

Initially, we were told that we were unable to tour the Arizona until 30 minutes before we needed to check out of our hotel. Our driver, Cousin Jerry, saved the day. He walked up to the ticket booth and obtained tickets for my entire family for a tour three hours earlier. This gave us plenty of time to tour the Arizona and Honolulu and have lunch. He really went the extra mile for us!

After a 15-minute ride on a medium-sized boat, we arrived at a shallow area with a depth of 20 to 30 centimeters. It was truly surprising. We walked around and chatted there, and then went snorkeling. However, we didn't have much time (about 30 to 40 minutes), which was a bit disappointing. There weren't as many fish as I had expected. The lunch was very delicious, but since it was probably around 3:30 to 4:00 PM, everyone was quite hungry. I think it's better to have a light snack if you're on an afternoon tour. However, I was very happy to unexpectedly receive Leonard's malasadas for free.

中型ボートで15分も走るとそこには20~30センチの浅瀬に。本当に驚きです。そこでウォーキングやおしゃべりなどをしてその後はシュノーケリングへ。ただあまり時間が取れず（30~40分位）そこがちょっと残念でした。お魚は期待していたよりいなかったです。ランチはとてもおいしかったのですが、恐らく3時半~4時位だったので、みんなお腹がペコペコでした。午後のツアーの場合、軽く食べていったほうがいいと思います。ただ、レナーズのマサラダが無料で配られ思いもよらなかったのでとても嬉しかったです。

The sandbar changes completely depending on the tides, and I think its uniqueness deserves a perfect score of 100. However, it's important to note that it doesn't always form a beach in the middle of the sea as shown in the pictures. Those who are lucky might find a beach, while others can enjoy the sea turtles.

サンドバーはそのときの潮の満ち引きによって全然景色が変わるし、珍しさは１００点だと思います。
ただ、写真のように海の真ん中に浜になっているとは限らないので要注意。運がいい人は浜に当たるかもね。浜に出会えない方は海ガメで楽しめるかも。

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying, passed by the "What Tree Is That?" tree, and arrived at the port. After a bathroom break, we boarded the boat. Before reaching the dolphin point, we were lucky enough to see a rare whale at the end of April. We snorkeled at the dolphin point. When we were told to "look down," we saw many dolphins! The underwater world, illuminated by sunlight, was beautiful.

My 4-year-old child was indeed scared of the ocean, but the staff helped by putting them on a kayak, and they seemed to have a great time.

The hula dance while feeling the wind was also enjoyable, and the CD of the photos I purchased turned out to be excellent. I brought an underwater camera, but I couldn't compete with the professionals.

Since it was April, I was glad I brought a hoodie.

宿泊してたホテルまで迎えにきてもらい、この木なんの木の横を通過し、港に到着。トイレタイムの後船に乗り込みます。イルカポイントに着く前に４月末には珍しい鯨に会えました。イルカポイントでシュノーケル。look downと言われ海の中を見るとイルカがたくさん！日の光が注ぐ海の中は綺麗でした。
４歳の子どもは、やはり海を恐がりましたが、スタッフがカヤックに乗せてくれて、楽しそうでした。

風を感じてのフラダンスも楽しかったし、購入した写真のＣＤも、申し分なく出来上がりの良いものでした。私も水中カメラを持って行きましたが、プロには敵わないです。

時期が４月ということもあり、パーカーを持って行って正解でした。

All in all, was a good experience. The entertainment was excellent. Much less people than at the Polynesian Cultural Center lu'au which was very nice. The only problem was the server who was extremely rude and sarcastic and made a part of the night very unpleasant.

I loved the entire experience. Will go back again. Should have booked the entire day.

楽しかったです、素晴らしい体験でした。スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございます。

It was fun, was an impressive experience
Your staff, thank you

I thought it would be an amazing place, so I participated, but it was just okay. However, I had fun!

凄いとこかなーと思い参加しましたが、まあまあでした。
でも楽しかったです！

I happened to sign up for the tour during the season when whales can be seen. Also, I thought that even if I couldn't see any whales, just being able to see Waikiki from the sea would be good enough, so I signed up with a light heart.

As a result, it was really great.
1. I was able to see the blue whales multiple times.
2. The food was much more delicious than what I had during the magic show, and even when the whales appeared, I was watching from the dining area while eating.
3. My wife usually gets seasick within an hour, but she didn't feel the engine's vibrations and was surprised by how little the boat rocked.
4. While Diamond Head is a great way to get a view of Waikiki, from the sea, we could see all the way to downtown.
5. I experienced my first ukulele class with Americans, Spaniards, and Hawaiians, which was an unexpected experience. It was also fun to see a white girl enjoying hula dance with sparkling eyes.

たまたま鯨が見れるシーズンだったのでツワーに申込ました。また、鯨が見れなくても海上からワイキキが見れれば、それだけでも良いと軽い気持ちで申込ました。
結果として、すごく良かったです。
１．シロナガス鯨を何度も見ることが出来ました。
２．マジックショー等で食べた食事より数段美味しい料理　　で、鯨が現れても食事をしながら食堂から見てました。
３．１時間もすれば船酔いする妻ですが、エンジンの振動も　感じられず、揺れの少なさにもびっくりです。
４．ワイキキを一望する方法としてダイヤモンドヘッドもい　いですが、海上からだとダウンタウンまで一望できまし　　た。
５．アメリカ人、スペイン人、ハワイアンの人達と初めての　ウクレレ教室を体験し、予定外の体験をすることができま　した。白人の女の子が目を輝かせながらフラダンスに興じ　ているのを見るのも楽しかったです。

I traveled with my 82-year-old mother, and she was able to walk without any issues, which made us very happy. It was a tour that everyone in the family enjoyed. It was a very beautiful place, and it became a lifelong memory for both my mother and me. Thank you very much.

82歳母との同行でしたが、全く問題なく歩けてとても喜んでおりました。参加した家族全員が喜んで遊べたツアーでした。とても綺麗な場所で母にも私にも一生の思い出になりました。有難うございました。

My Boyfriend and I had an incredible time on the Navatek. The employee who greeted us at the hotel was our server on the boat. She was the nicest most attentive women ever. The sunset was beautiful. This trip was a sheer pleasure.

I had to go to the sandbar on my first trip to Hawaii! Although I was alone, the staff were young and friendly, and the ocean was incredibly beautiful. Of course, I also got to see sea turtles. It seemed difficult to take pictures, though. I’m good at snorkeling, so I easily cleared it and swam at the front of the tour, enjoying the fish in the clear waters.

初めてのハワイでサンドバー行くっきゃない！だけどぉ、独りは一人だったけどぉ。スタッフは若くて気さくな感じだし、海はとってもきれいなのだぁ。もちろんウミガメも見れたよぉ。写真に撮るのは難しそうだったけれどぉ。初種のーケリングも潜るの得意だから難なくクリアーでツアーの先頭を泳げば澄み切った海で魚たちを楽しめます。

It wasn't my first time, so there wasn't anything particularly new, but it was a bit cold in March. However, the pool in Waikiki is similarly (or even more) chilly, so it's not an issue with the facilities.

When I visited before, not all the slides were operating at the same time, and there were periods when some were closed. This time, I felt there were a bit more closures. According to the staff, it was due to water usage restrictions. I'm not sure if this will be resolved in the summer, but even on a Sunday, it wasn't inconvenient enough to be a problem; it would just be better if everything was available.

It seems that people who booked through other travel agencies were on the same pickup bus. I recommend booking through Alan 1.

はじめてではなかったので、特段目新しいことはなかったのですが、３月でちょっと寒かったです。もっともワイキキのプールでも同様（あるいはそれ以上）ですので、施設の問題ではありません。
以前に行った時も全てのスライダーが同時に稼働しているわけではなく一部が休止状態になる時間があったのですが、今回はそれがちょっと多いと感じました。係員によると水の利用制限が理由とのことでした。夏になると解消するのか否かわかりませんが、日曜の参加でも不便を感じるほどではありませんが、全部使えるとなお良いです。
他の旅行社で申し込んだと思われる人たちも同じピックアップバスです。Alan１での申し込みはお薦めします。

Waited 40+ years to go, way too long, something that every American should see. But needed more time, than 1 day. If opportunity came, would go back and spend more time.

The main benefit in this tour was to have someone else stand in line and get the tickets and drive around. The Arizona memorial and Missouri tours are handled basically self tours. My favorite portion was the oral history as told by our guide, Cousin Jerry. This was too short. I wish I had heard more from him.

It was my first experience with snorkeling!

Even though I wore a life jacket, it was quite challenging for me, who can't swim, to get used to using the fins ^^;

However, they assessed how well each participant could swim at the beginning and provided support, so I was able to swim with peace of mind ;)

The water wasn't as clear as in photos or stories, so I couldn't see the dolphins clearly underwater or swim with them, but I could hear their voices! ((＠0＠) From the boat, I was able to see several mother-dolphin pairs and groups☆

The captain and crew were incredibly kind, and the hamburgers were delicious ♥ When I was on the kayak, I got to see a sea turtle up close, which was truly moving (:_; )

And above all...

The ocean was so beautiful!!!!

I forgot everything and felt so relaxed ´ω`

The final hula experience was also a lot of fun *^'*b

I think anyone, whether friends, couples, or families, will definitely enjoy it!!

I highly recommend it for those who want to experience Hawaii in just one day＼^0^／

シュノーケリング初体験でした！

ライフジャケットを着用していたものの、
泳げない私はフィンの使い方に
慣れるまでなかなか大変でした^^;

でも最初にどのくらい泳げるか
参加者の状態を把握して

海はそれほど透き通ってなかったので、
写真や体験談のように
水中でイルカをハッキリ見たり、
一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、
声が聞こえましたよっ((＠0＠
船上からは何頭もの親子や群れを
見ることができました☆

キャプテンやクルーの皆さんは
とーっても優しいし、
ハンバーガーはおいしいし♥

友達、カップル、家族、
誰と参加しても必ず
楽しめると思います!!

一日でHawaiiを体験したい方には
本当にオススメです＼^0^／

I participated for the first time in late March, as I visit the Hawaiian Islands every year between December and April for child-rearing. We had the option to choose between two sizes of cruising boats, and after some hesitation, I decided to go with the smaller boat that seemed more maneuverable.

"Bingo!" On that day, we were able to see a mother humpback whale and her calf up close, which was truly moving. It seemed we were very lucky.

The breakfast included was disappointing, but since the whales were the main attraction, I guess it was acceptable?

毎年１２月~４月の間に　子育てのためハワイ諸島近海を訪れるという事で初めて（３月下旬）参加しました。クルージング船が大小２種類のうちの選択でしたが、迷ったあげく、小回りの利きそうな双同船を選ぶことにしました。
「ビンゴ！」私たちは当日、ザトウクジラの親子を目の当たりに見ることができ、感動致しました。とてもラッキーだったようです。
朝食付きの「朝食」は期待外れでしたが、でもクジラがメインでしたのでよしとするかな？

The day after arriving in Hawaii, three women in their 50s escaped Waikiki and, without knowing what to expect, the first challenge we took on was the Tornado at the world's largest and best water park. It was incredibly thrilling, and we lost ourselves in excitement, screaming together. We eagerly tried one attraction after another. Although we participated without much thought, we ended up having an absolutely wonderful day. When I shared this with others, they expressed a strong desire to try it at least once.

ハワイ到着の次の日50過ぎの熟女3名でワイキキを抜けだし、世界最大最高のウォータパークで訳も分からず、一番最初にチャレンジしたのが、トルネード。最高にスリル満点で、我を忘れて皆でキャーキャーと絶叫し、次から次へと他のアトラクションにチャレンジ。考えもせずに参加しましたが、最高に楽しい一日を過ごすことができました。
他の人に話をしたところ、ぜひ一度参加してみたいと、言っていただけました。　

This was my second time in Hawaii, and while I went into the ocean last time, I thought just soaking in the water was boring. Since I was in Hawaii, I decided to fully enjoy some water activities and participated in this one. I'm not good with thrilling rides, but I found it wasn't too scary while holding onto the tube, or big float. I think I will participate in this activity again the next time I come to Hawaii, as I felt it was just right for "getting used to the water."

今回で２回目のハワイでしたが、前回は海に入ったけど
ただ海に浸かっているだけじゃつまらないと思っていたので
せっかくのハワイだし思いっきり水遊びしようと今回の
アクティビティーに参加させていただきました
私は絶叫系はニガテなんですが、チューブ？大きな浮き輪？
につかまって柔らかかったのかそんなに怖いと感じませんでした。
次回またハワイに来たらこのアクティビティーは前半で参加しようと思っています
何ていうか「水に慣れる」のには丁度良いアクティビティーだと感じました

On the day of our visit, we drove there with a rental car. It’s easy to spot right after you exit the freeway.

There were three of us in the family, including a 4-year-old boy (105 cm tall). However, the height restrictions were quite strict, and although he was close to being able to ride, he wasn’t allowed (which is understandable for safety reasons). He seemed to find the slides in the kids' pool a bit lacking.

It was early March, and while there was quite a bit of sunshine, the water temperature was low, making it chilly even for adults.

I think kids in upper elementary school would really enjoy it. You can experience slides on a scale that you can't find in Japan.

The wave pool was also quite impressive and exciting. Young children can participate if they are with an adult, but since each inflatable ring can only hold one person, it can be dangerous if they can’t hold on (even for toddlers).

Personally, I found the restrooms and changing rooms to be old and dirty, which was a downside. It felt like more locals were visiting than tourists.

I recommend it for groups looking to have fun or families with older children.

当日はレンタカーで向かいました。フリーウェイを降りるとすぐ見えてきます。

家族3人、子供は4歳男の子（身長105センチ）でしたが、身長制限がけっこうシビアであと少しで乗れそうなのですが、やらせてもらえず、（安全上仕方ないですけど）子供専用プールのスライダー類ではあまりもの足り無かったようです。
3月の上旬で、日差しはけっこうありましたが、水温が低くて、大人でも冷たかったです。

小学校高学年くらいになれば、かなり楽しめると思います。
日本には無いスケールのスライダーを、楽しめます。

波のプールもけっこう迫力あって、もりあがります。幼児でも大人と一緒なら参加できますが、浮輪ひとつに一人ずつなので、（幼児でも1人）つかまっていられないと危ないです。

個人的には、トイレや更衣室が古くて汚かったのがマイナス要素でした。
観光客より、ロコが来ているという印象です。

グループでワイワイ、もしくは家族でもある程度の年齢の子供がいるファミリーにおススメです。

This was my first time participating.

The slides had a thrilling design that you can't find in Japan, and I was able to enjoy sliding on all of them. Even though it was a holiday, the wait times were only about 5 to 15 minutes, so I was able to slide a lot. However, since you have to climb the stairs to slide each time, it can be quite tiring on your legs. The Tornado and Shaka slides were particularly good.

I also took a bodyboard lesson, and we had the entire large wave pool to ourselves with just five people for 30 minutes. During the lesson, no other guests were allowed in, so it was just the five of us who participated that day. Even for those who had never tried bodyboarding before, the staff provided support, making it easy and fun to ride the waves.

今回、初めて参加させて頂きました。

スライダーは日本にはない絶叫設計？でどれも楽しくすべることができました。休日でしたが、待ち時間も5分~15分程度で、たくさんすべることができました。ただ、どれも自分で階段を上ってすべるので、足に結構きます。
特にトルネードとシャカがGOODでした。

ボディーボードレッスンも受けましたが、あの広い波プールをたった5人で30分も貸切状態。レッスンタイム中は一般のお客さんは入れないので、この日参加した5名だけでした。
ボディボード未経験者もスタッフさんがサポートしてくれるので、どんどん乗れて楽しいです。

We just went for the late arrival and only got to visit a couple of the islands before dinner and the "HA" show. We would have enjoyed the whole day.

I previously experienced dolphin watching in Guam, but this time it was whale watching. I was told that the chances of seeing them were fifty-fifty, but I was able to see them multiple times. The boat didn't rock much, and I didn't get seasick. It was comfortable!!

いるかウォッチングは以前、グアムで経験しましたが、今回はクジラ。会えるかどうかは五分五分といわれましたが、何回も見ることができました。
船もあまり揺れず、船酔いもなし。快適でした！！
