Oahu
My first paddleboarding experience, I’m 60 and my wife is trying it for the first time. There was a brief lecture, but experience is what matters most. We had a lesson just for the two of us from a teacher who spoke broken Japanese, and then we headed out to the sea.
It was quite challenging to maintain balance. Even when I finally managed to stand, it was difficult to paddle and move forward. Surprisingly, my wife was able to stand up quite easily. I’m glad we had a kind teacher.
はじめてのパドルボード、私は60.妻は初めてのボード体験。簡単なレクチャーはありましたがとにかく経験が大事。カタコトの日本語の先生から二人だけでレッスンを受けて海へ。
なかなかバランスが難しい。やっとスタンド出来てもパドルで漕いで進むのが難しい。
妻は意外と簡単にスタンドアップ出来ました。
優しい先生で良かった。
On May 4th, I visited with my second-grade child. The bus picked us up at the hotel at 8:55 AM and we arrived around 10 AM. We received a pamphlet with the meeting time for the return and a map of the park. The return meeting time was at 3:15 PM, which left us with less time to play than expected. There were shallow athletic pools for preschoolers who couldn't ride the attractions yet, as well as pools for elementary school students, so I felt reassured. The weather was cloudy and not too hot, making it comfortable, but the water was quite cold. It would have been better if it were a bit warmer. Once you enter the park, it's best to check the operating hours of the attractions first. The times when they are less crowded vary by attraction, so there is a possibility you might not be able to ride them. I thought the barbecue would be all-you-can-eat grilled meat, but it was disappointing to find only a small variety of salad greens, shredded meat, fruit, rice, and yakisoba. I'm considering whether to visit again.
5月4日に小学二年生の子供と利用しました。朝8時55分にホテルにバスがお迎え10時近くに着きました。迎えの集合時間が書かれてる用紙と園内の地図が付いたパンフレットを貰います。帰りの集合時間は15時15分と遊べる時間が以外に短い間。アトラクションがまだ乗れない幼稚園児が遊べる浅いアスレチックスのプールや小学生が遊べるプールがあるから安心でした。天気は曇りでそれほど暑くなく過ごしやすかったのですが、水が結構冷たいです。もう少し温かったら良かった。入園したらまずアトラクションの営業時間を確認した方がいい。アトラクションによって空いてる時間が違うから、乗れなくなる可能性もあります。バーベキューは、網で焼かれたお肉を食べ放題だと思ってたのですが、サラダ菜と細かく裂かれた肉とフルーツとご飯と焼そばで種類も少なく期待していただけにがっかりでした。 次利用するかは考えますね。
Despite the last-minute reservation, I was grateful that they came to pick me up at the hotel. It's embarrassing to see Japanese people carrying their suitcases on public buses; that's prohibited. Let's stop doing that.
直前予約であったにもかかわらず、ホテルまで迎えに来てくれて助かりました。公共バスでスーツケース運んでいる日本の方々、それは禁止行為です。見ていてこちらが恥ずかしいので、やめましょう。
Haneda (late night) → Kona, Hawaii Island → Honolulu, Oahu
On the day of travel, if you have a layover, you will arrive in Honolulu in the evening.
In this case, shuttle buses from HIS and JTB are not in operation.
Roberts' shuttle bus is always very convenient.
There is a Roberts reception counter right in front of the baggage claim area, which is reassuring.
Staff wearing brightly colored shirts are bustling around.
Compared to other companies, the waiting time feels shorter, and it seems like you depart for Waikiki quickly.
It's very convenient.
羽田(深夜)→ハワイ島コナ→オアフ島ホノルル
当日、乗り継ぎの場合、夕方、ホノルル着。
この場合、HISやJTBのシャトルバスは運行されておりません。
いつも、ロバーツのシャトルバスがとても便利。
荷物受け取り場所の目の前に、ロバーツ受付カウンターもあり安心です。
目立つ色のシャツを着たスタッフが大勢、ウロチョロしています。
他社に比べて待ち時間が少なく、ワイキキへ出発するように感じています。
とても便利です。
I thought they might be loose with time, but they were right on schedule, and the staff was friendly, which was great. However, I was disappointed when I found a cheaper option on-site, even though I thought VELTRA was the most affordable.
時間にルーズなのかと思っていたが、キッチリ時間通り、スタッフもフランクでよかったです。
ただ、VELTRAが一番安いと思っていたのに現地でもっと安いのを見つけた時はがっかりでした。
It was disappointing that the instructor who was in charge seemed to favor my beautiful friend. My friend also noticed this and mentioned that the treatment felt unnatural. Even though it was my first time, for some reason, my friend was leading while I was left stranded in the middle of the ocean, being told to make my way back on my own, which made me anxious several times. ^^ There were also many photos of my friend. Since the service was inconsistent, I’m giving it a lower rating. I do not recommend it.
担当してくださった講師の先生は美人な友人に贔屓めだったのが残念。友人もそれには気付いていたようで対応が不自然だと言っていました。初めてなのになぜか友人だけリードして私だけ海の真ん中に取り残されて自力で来いと言われて不安になった事が何度も^^;写真も友人が多かったです。対応にムラがあるので星は少なめ。お勧めはしません。
The cloudy sky was a blessing, allowing us to enjoy almost all the attractions in the cool weather. We had an unexpectedly great time.
曇り空が幸いし、涼しいなかほとんどのアトラクションに乗ることが出来ました。想像以上の楽しさを満喫しました。
I think it's a tour that is influenced by the tides. It was my first time participating, but I was able to land on the sandbar successfully. Maybe it's because I've been behaving well lately—haha! I was also able to see the honu (sea turtle) properly. When it was time to return to the port, the guide waved goodbye and came to greet us!
We practiced snorkeling in the shallow waters, and the guide stayed with us, constantly checking in to see if we were okay, which was reassuring. The meal we had on the boat was super delicious. I especially loved the chili beans. I definitely want to participate again!
潮の満ち引きで左右されるツアーだと思います。初めての参加でしたが、しっかりサンドバーに上陸出来ました。日頃の行いが良いからかなぁー笑
ホヌちゃんにもしっかり会う事ができました。また、港に蛙時間になったら、武具さんがバイバーイって、ご挨拶に来てくれました!!
浅瀬で、シュノーケリングの練習もするし、一緒に着いてきてくれて、また大丈夫?って、常に声をかけてくれるので安心でした。
船で頂いた食事も、超~美味しかったです。
特にチリビーンズがお気に入りです。
是非、また参加したいでーす。
Aloha! I'm really glad you were able to enjoy your first sandbar experience with peace of mind. Chili beans are delicious, aren't they? We look forward to having you join us on another tour!
アロハ〜!初めてのサンドバー安心して楽しんで頂けて本当によかったです。
チリビーンズ美味しいですよね!! また食べに。。。。いえいえツアーにご参加お待ちしております。
Excellent crew made sure everyone was comfortable and also made sure everyone got to snorkel with the turtles.
Had a great time especially for the price it was a great value
Chartered bus and boat with meals included. They also lend you masks and fins, so you don't have to worry about arranging those yourself. The meals are sufficient considering the location, and the prices are attractive compared to other companies. This tour is one of the few that allows snorkeling near the coral reefs and accepts children. Unfortunately, we weren't blessed with good weather, so I will participate again. Next time, I will dive in without a life jacket from the start!
バスと船のチャーターおまけに食事付き。マスクとフィンも貸してくれますので、自分で手配する煩わしさを考えると言うこと無しでしょう。
食事も場所を考えると充分ですし、価格も他社比較でも魅力的です。
サンゴ礁付近でスノーケリングができて、子供の参加を受け付けてくれるのはこのツアーくらいでは?
残念ながら天候に恵まれなかったので、また参加します。次回は最初からライフジャケット無しで潜りまくります!
I used the shuttle service from the airport to the hotel. After exiting the airport, I was smoothly guided to the shuttle bus, and there was no waiting time, so we departed promptly! I arrived at the hotel without any stress. The price was reasonable, and I will use it again.
空港からホテルまでの送迎にて利用しました
空港出口を出てからスムーズにシャトルバスまで案内され、
待ち時間もなくスムーズに出発!
何のストレスもなくホテルへ到着できました。
料金もリーズナブルでまた利用します。
While enjoying a Mai Tai, we slowly went sailing. There were more foreign participants than Japanese, and the atmosphere and vibe were truly American. If the weather is favorable, it will be the best sunset cruise, but even with a bit of cloud cover, the colors of the sky gradually changed, which was quite moving. Since you board directly from the beach barefoot, it's best to wear clothes that can get wet, and depending on the weather, I think a light jacket is necessary.
マイタイを飲みながら、ゆっくりとセーリングしていきます。
日本人より外国人の参加が多く、雰囲気、乗りは、まさにアメリカンです。
天気に恵まれれば最高なサンセットクルーズとなりますが、少々曇っていても、空の色が徐々に変わっていって、なかなか感動ものでした。
浜辺から裸足で直接乗船するので、濡れてもよい恰好で、天気によっては寒いので羽織ものは必要かと思います。
It's definitely geared towards tourists, but it's the perfect place to experience the vibe of Hawaii! The dinner buffet is also of very high quality!
がっつり観光客向けですが、ハワイの気分を味わうには最高です!ディナーブッフェもかなりクオリティーが高いです!
Thank you very much for attending Rock Aloha.
We are very pleased that you enjoyed the show, experienced the Hawaiian atmosphere, and were satisfied with the meal!
We look forward to welcoming you again with all our staff!

Swimming with turtles and sailing with dolphins was amazing! It felt like a great deal for the price. I participated in the morning session, and there were hardly any Japanese people, so it was a deep American tour.
カメと一緒に泳げ、イルカと一緒にセーリング出来て最高でした!
値段の割にかなりお得感があります。
午前中の時間帯に参加したのですが、日本人がほとんどいなくてディープなアメリカンなツアーでした
When I go to Hawaii, I always feel like I have to see this show... I've watched it about 4 to 5 times, but I think the structure wasn't as good as before? It seemed like they focused too much on hula dancing, which diminished the fun of the traditional impersonation show. The person who resembles Elvis, who always performs, is stable, but compared to the impersonators I've seen before like Steven Tyler and Celine Dion, I felt a bit disappointed with the others. However, since different performers come out each time, I think I will go again.
ハワイに行ったら必ず…という感じで、4~5回は観ていますが、構成が今までで一番良くなかったような?
フラダンスを押し出し過ぎて、従来のモノマネショーの楽しさが半減していた気がします。
いつも出ているエルビスに似ている方は安定していますが、他は今まで見たスティーヴン・タイラー、セリーヌ・ディオン等のモノマネの方と比べて、ちょっと残念だった気がしました。
でも毎回出てくる方が違うので、また行くと思いますが。
Thank you very much for visiting us again. We appreciate your valuable feedback. We will work together as a team to address the issues moving forward. We sincerely look forward to your visit when you come to Hawaii again.
再度ご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。貴重なご意見、有難うございます。今後の課題として、スタッフ全員で改善に取り組みたいと思います。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
This was my second time on a dinner cruise, but this ship didn't have any special stage performances, just a few band members and one Hawaiian dancer, which felt quite simple. There wasn't really a show to speak of, and there were no announcements for birthday or wedding celebrations, which made it a bit lonely. The cheerful atmosphere of Hawaii is very enjoyable, so it was a bit disappointing. The price wasn't too high, so maybe that's to be expected? Since we were a group of six, we had reserved seats, but some groups had to sit together at shared tables. It's also based on the order of boarding, so I recommend boarding early.
夕食付きクルージングは、2度目ですが、今回の船には、特段舞台もなく、数名のバンドと一人のハワイアンダンサーでさっぱりしたものでした。
ショーと言えるものはなく、お誕生日お祝い、結婚祝いなどの呼びかけもなく、ちょっと寂しかったかな。ハワイの陽気な雰囲気は、とても楽しいので、
残金でした。料金もそれ程なのでやむ得ないか?
6人で行ったので、予約席がありましたが、数名のグループは自由席で、相席状態でした。それも、乗船順なので、早めに乗船することを勧めます。
I was picked up on time for the early morning transfer. I didn't have to worry about tipping, and even though I was using a domestic flight, they still provided a proper send-off.
早朝の送迎、時間通りにピックアップしてもらえました。
チップの心配もなく国内線利用でしたが利用口まだきちんと送ってくれました。
Although the cloudy weather was disappointing, the staff were delightful and our conversations mixed with Japanese made for a very enjoyable time. Watching others from the boat, I was surprised at how quickly they ascended, but in reality, it was a smooth ascent without feeling any G-forces, which was very pleasant. They kindly took photos with my camera, and I highly recommend this experience. Don't forget to tip!
曇天模様は残念でしたが、スタッフが愉快な人で日本語交じりのおしゃべり、とても楽しいひと時でした。
他の方をボートから見ていると速いスピードで上がっていくのでビックリ、しかし実際はスーと上がっていきGも感じずとても気持ちよかったです。
持ち込んだカメラで快く写真も撮っていただき、おススメだと思います。くれぐれもチップは忘れずに!
I was able to find the luggage pickup area at the airport right away, and they greeted me with a smile and gave me a shell necklace as a token. After waiting for about 15 minutes for other passengers at the airport, we departed for the third hotel. The driver spoke English and clearly stated the name of the hotel, so I felt at ease since the tip was included. The car was a bit cold.
空港の荷物受取り場所ですぐに見つけることが出来、笑顔で握手して印の貝ネックレスをくれました。空港では15分位他の乗客を待った後出発し、3軒目のホテルでした。ドライバーは英語ですが、ホテルの名前をはっきり言ってくれるし、チップ込なので安心です。車中はやや寒いです。
I went surfing for the first time in my life. For a guy nearing his sixties, it was definitely a bit of a tough activity. But it was so much fun!
生まれて初めてサーフィンをしました。還暦近いおじさんにはさすがに少々ハードな遊びです。でも最高に楽しかった!
I used the service in June 2017. It was good that I could book the service on-site and print the voucher, but I was also able to fax the voucher to the hotel. The shuttle service was smooth as well.
2017年6月に利用しました。
現地でサービスを予約、バウチャーを印刷する必要がありましたが、バウチャーをホテルへFax送信することもでき、良かったです。
シャトル利用もスムーズにできました。
It was pouring rain on the way there, which was disappointing, but by the time we arrived, the rain had stopped. I felt reassured to see several staff members who spoke fluent Japanese. We rented bicycles from Kailua Adventure. Although the waves were high and we couldn't enjoy snorkeling, we had a great time shopping and cycling. Since we had a long stay, we were able to enjoy a variety of activities.
向かう時は土砂降りで、残念な気持ちでしたが、到着したら雨が上がっていました。スタッフさんに日本語ペラペラな方が数人みえて 安心でした。レンタサイクルもカイルア・アドベンチャーさんでお借りしました。波が高くてシュノーケリングは楽しめなかったけど、ショッピングやサイクリングを満喫しました。滞在時間が長いからいろいろ楽しめますよ
Dear Nancy,
Thank you for visiting us and for taking the time to write a review. It has been raining a lot lately, which is a bit unfortunate, but we are glad to hear that you enjoyed biking and shopping. We hope that next time, when the weather is clear, you will have the chance to enjoy Kailua Beach.
We sincerely look forward to your next visit. Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
The Staff at Kailua Beach Adventures

ご来店及びレビューのご記入ありがとうございました。
最近、雨が多く、ちょっと残念ですが、自転車やショッピングを楽しんで頂けたようで嬉しく思います。
次回、晴れているときに是非、カイルアビーチを楽しんで頂きたく思います。
またのお越しを心よりお待ち致しております。
ありがとうございます。

They arrived on time to pick me up, and it was smooth. I was asked about my return airline and was dropped off there. The handling of my luggage was pleasant, and the driving was not rough, so I would like to use their service again.
時間通りに迎えに来てもらえ、スムーズでした。帰りの航空会社を聞かれてそこに降ろしてもらいました。荷物の預かり,渡しも感じよく、運転も荒くなくてまた利用したいです
The pickup location I was worried about was easy to find. The staff at the desk were nice, and the transfer to the hotel was smooth. It was also good that it mentioned tips were included.
心配していた迎えの場所も分かりやすかったです。デスクの方もいい感じで、ホテルまでスムーズでした。チップ込みと書いてあったのも良かったです。
You can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere since it's not crowded. Walking along the coast feels very nice. It's a homely atmosphere at the riding club.
空いててゆったりと楽しめます。
海沿いを歩くのでとても気持ちいいです。
アットホームな雰囲気の乗馬クラブです。
This time there were 49 people. It was my second time sailing.
I wondered if there was a toilet on this boat, but when I sat down, I found that the area near the toilet was quite spacious after opening the red lid and going down the stairs. People who had drunk too much kept going in and out.
This time we set sail at 7:30, and since the fireworks started at 7:45, everyone chatted and drank for the remaining hour, and it was once again a lot of fun.
今回も49名
2回目のセーリングでした。
この船にトイレ?と思いましたが、座ったところがトイレの近くで、赤の蓋を開けて、階段を降りると思ったより結構広いスペースがー
飲みすぎた人たちが入れ替わり立ち代り入って行きましたー
今回は7時30分出航で、7時45分から花火だったので、残り1時間はみんな喋って飲んでとまたまた楽しかったです。
Great staff who made the trip lots of fun. Saw tons of turtles, though not a great variety of other fish - but I was there to see turtles, and so I was happy as can be!
Got a little woozy after being out on the ocean, and they immediately recognized it (without me having to say anything!) and offered me a dab of lavendar oil behind my ears/under my nose that cleared it right up.
Overall a great trip, highly recommend!
If you're going to fly, of course, aim for 150m.
The clear weather and height provided an amazing view.
The staff were also great, taking photos with us.
飛ぶならもちろん150m。
晴天、高さもあって眺めが最高でした。
スタッフも一緒に写真とってくれるなど対応も良かったです。
We participated as a couple.
The weather on the day was cloudy with occasional rain, which made the scenery disappointing.
The snorkeling visibility was not great due to the lack of sunlight. It was cold for late April with this weather.
The lunch was delicious, and the staff's service was very good.
A sea turtle came right up close, and we were able to observe it closely.
夫婦で参加しました。
当日は曇り~時々雨といったところで、景色は残念なものに。
シュノーケリングも太陽光が無いため視界がイマイチでした。
4月下旬で、この天気だと寒かったです。
ランチは美味しく、スタッフの対応はとても良かったです。
ウミガメがすぐそばまで来て、じっくり見れました。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Heaven's Ocean tour as a couple. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the meal. I hope next time you can enjoy even more of Heaven's Ocean under the sun.
アロハ!ご夫婦で天国の海ツアーご参加ありがとうございました。
お食事楽しんで頂けて安心しました。次回は太陽の元でもっと天国の海を楽しんで頂けますように。
Knowing that I could enjoy both the sunset and fireworks on Friday night, I finally boarded the dinner cruise I had been longing for. After 23 years since we first came to Hawaii for our honeymoon, it was a special trip for just the two of us. We received blessings from the captain during our vow renewal, making it a truly memorable conclusion to our journey.
金曜日の夜に夕陽と花火の両方が楽しめると知って、念願のディナークルーズに乗船した。新婚旅行でハワイに初めて来てから23年、夫婦水入らずのハワイ。バウリニューアルで船長に祝福してもらって、感動の旅の締めくくりとなりました。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
It's been 23 years since you last visited Hawaii, and I can imagine the lovely couple renewing their vows.
I am truly happy that we could assist in making your important trip a little more special.
Please do come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
