Luxury Ko Olina Sunset Cruise with Snorkeling, Dinner Buffet & Premium Cocktails - Ocean Joy Cruises

Had a great time

Reviewed by: Arianna

Even if the weather wasn't really great during our experience, we still had a great time chilling in the boat watching the view, snorkeling and had dinner and drinks. It was a really good value for the price since the dinner and alcoholic beverage were also included. The crew was really great too and we spent time talking to them as well. Captain Don, Trent and Jacob were really fun and helpful throughout the experience. Even if we didn't see the sunset because of the weather, it was still great because we saw a humpback whale swimming next to us.

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Boring

Reviewed by: Sarah

We thought his luau was be dry boring and the show was not entertaining. We also are a younger couple it seemed maybe more geared toward older folks we called it the “retirement home luau” it was pretty disappointing for the last day of the trip. Also the food was a pre-fixed menu where u were waited on but for a picky eater it was not a good choice. I also went pregnant and the main appetizer was raw fish. I also don’t eat beef so all I was able to have was two tiny pieces of chicken and a small scoop of rice which was very mid. With two shrimps only. We both left hungry from a luau! Which is crazy it is supposed to be plentiful in food.

It was the best show against a beautiful sunset sky. きれいな夕焼け空をバックに最高のショーでした

Reviewed by: まるよっこ

Check-in was at 5 PM, and we were given three drink tickets per person and shown to our seats. Although the front row was fully booked at the time of reservation and we had the basic plan, we were seated at a two-person table on the edge of the third row, which had a good view. The waiters came by at just the right times to take drink orders and even offered to take photos, providing a pleasant service experience. At the end, the two leftover drink tickets were exchanged for cute paper packs of mineral water to take home.

During the time from check-in to the show, we observed the making of kapa and poi. The kapa-making demonstration had a bit of a line, but it was organized into small groups, and even if you didn't understand English, it was fun to see the cute hula girls up close. There was no making of na lawaia, but instead, there was a corner where they stamped your arm with a tattoo-like design. The show was scheduled to start at 7 PM, but in reality, singing and hula began around 6 PM and ended by 8:40 PM. It was nice that we could take photos with the performers at the end. Compared to the Hilton show I attended previously, the stage was smaller, but at the Hilton, there were a lot of people, leading to long lines for check-in, a buffet-style meal with more waiting, and shared large tables. Personally, I found this experience to be more satisfying.

17時にチェックイン、1人3枚のドリンクチケットを渡されて席に案内されました。予約時に前列確約が満席で基本プランでしたが、3列目端の２人席で見やすくてよかったです。ドリンクもウエイターがタイミングよく聞きに来てくれたり写真を撮ってくれたり、気持ちの良いサービスでした。最後に2枚余ったドリンクチケットはお持ち帰り用のかわいいミネラルウォーター紙パックと交換してくれました。チェックインからショーまでの時間はカパ作りやポイ作りを見学。カパ作りは少し並んで小グループごとに説明してくれる形式で英語がわからなくてもかわいいフラガールのお姉さん達を間近に見られて楽しかったです。ナ・ラワイア作りはなく、代わりに腕にタトゥーのようなのスタンプを押してくれるコーナーがありました。ショーは19時からと書いてありましたが、実際には18時台から歌やフラが始まり、20:40には終了でした。退場時に舞台出演者と写真が撮れるようになっていたのもよかったです。以前参加したヒルトンのショーに比べると小さめのステージでしたが、ヒルトンは人数が多くてチェックインに長蛇の列、食事はビュッフェに並びドリンクも取りに行かなければならず、席は大きなテーブルで相席だったので、自分的にはこちらの方が満足度が高かったです。

サンセットシュノーケリング・クルーズ　ハワイアンディナー＆アルコール4杯付き＜ワイキキ地区ホテル送迎あり／英語スタッフ／コオリナ発＞

It was amazing! 最高でした！

Reviewed by: Y&Y

First of all, Mason Captain's Japanese is incredibly good! I was surprised at how well he speaks, to the point where I thought he might be better than some Japanese people, as he learned it by ear.

We were the only Japanese people there, but he provided translations for all the announcements without slowing down the tempo, keeping everyone engaged. He is truly amazing.

The clientele was also great; there were elderly gentlemen and ladies who surprised me by snorkeling down to about 5 meters deep. Additionally, they opened the restrooms that were only for park members for us when we urgently needed them, which was very kind of them.

Before COVID, it seems that about 30-40% of the guests were Japanese, but after COVID, it appears that hardly any Japanese people have returned. However, even for those who are not good at English, there is really no trouble at all, and the food was delicious. It was the best activity, so I really hope everyone gets to experience it!

To Mason,
Wishing you and your fiancée happiness!
Thank you!

まず、メイソンキャプテンの日本語がめちゃくちゃ上手い！
耳で覚えたとのことですが、日本人より上手いんじゃないか、ってくらいのレベルでびっくりしちゃいました。

日本人は僕らだけでしたが、全部のアナウンスに和訳も添えてくれて、なのにテンポ落とさずに全員を盛り上げていて、本当にすごい人です。

客層も良く、高齢の殿方とご婦人もいらっしゃいましたが皆さんシュノーケルで5mくらいある底まで潜っていらっしゃったりしてびっくりしました。
あとパークメンバーオンリーのお手洗いを急を要していた我々のために開けてくれたりして、素敵な方々でした。

コロナ前までは3-4割は日本人のお客さんだったそうですが、アフターコロナはほとんど日本人が戻ってきてないそうです。
ただ、英語苦手な方でも本当に全く困らないし、ご飯も美味しくて最高のアクティビティだったので、是非みんな行ってみて欲しいです！

The trolley is decorated for Christmas and Christmas songs are playing, so you can enjoy a different atmosphere than usual.

It was a fun New Year's Eve with the family. 楽しい家族での年越しになりました。

Reviewed by: デコデコマン

The pickup at the hotel and boarding went smoothly. Our table was by the window, but since we moved to the deck to actually look outside, I don't think it was necessary to be too particular about it.

People from various countries, including the mainland United States, gathered, creating a lively atmosphere, and the staff kept the energy up right until the countdown.

I found myself dancing at the YMCA, which was a bit out of character for me.

I was surprised at how delicious the steak and lobster were, even better than I had expected.

The fireworks were quite close, featuring star mines and large shells, reminiscent of the Japanese style.

On the way back, it gets crowded, so it's best to move to your bus early.

It was a fun New Year's Eve, and I think I got my money's worth.

ホテルでのピックアップ、乗船まではスムーズ。テーブルは窓際でしたが、実際に外を見るときはデッキに移動するのであまりこだわる必要はないと思います。
アメリカ本土を含めて様々な国からたくさんの人が集まってきており、賑やかで、カウントダウン直前までスタッフが盛り上げてくれます。
YMCAとか、年甲斐もなく踊ってしまいました。
予想していたより料理のメインにでたステーキとロブスターが美味しくて驚きました。
花火も結構近いところで上がります。スターマインや尺玉もある日本式ですね。
帰りは混雑するので自分の乗るバスまで早めのご移動を。
楽しい年越しになりました。料金分は十分楽しんだと思います。

Star of Honolulu New Year's Eve Fireworks Cruise - Dinner & Cocktail Packages

A safe place to be on New Year's Eve

Reviewed by: Chris M.

With illegal fireworks killing and injuring people all over Oahu, it was great to be out on the water aboard the Star of Honolulu for its New Year's Eve cruise. The surf and turf dinner was excellent, as was the live entertainment. Beverage service was quite slow; the large number of diners ordering beverages simultaneously clearly overloaded the staff. Prospective participants need to be prepared for the fact that in order to see the midnight fireworks better, hundreds of attendees move to one side of the boat causing it to tilt quite a bit. But that was the only detectable motion; even people with motion sickness could take this cruise. I had a good time and would do it again. The event was a good value, too.

City Lights after five years. 5年ぶりのシティライツ

Reviewed by: キューコ

We were supposed to meet at 5 PM, but I was surprised that we had to turn back for three Americans who were late. Is this our responsibility? The three of them didn't apologize and were overly cheerful; could this be a difference in national character? It finally got dark around 6:15 PM, and the illumination was beautiful, but what do you think about the timing set from 5 PM to 7 PM? I think it would have been better if it started from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM, so we could enjoy it after it got dark.

17時集合でしたが、遅れたアメリカ人三人のため引き返し、びっくりしました。
自己責任でしょうか？
三人は謝りもせず、やたらテンション高くて国民性の違いでしょうか？
6時15分くらいにようやく暗くなりイルミネーション綺麗でしたが、17時から19時の設定はどうでしょうか？
せめて17：30から19：30が暗くなってから楽しめたと思います。

The crowd levels at the venue vary greatly depending on the day of the week and the time of day. Personally, I recommend going on weekdays before sunset. 曜日と時間帯で会場の込み具合がぜんぜん違う。個人的には平日の日没前から行くのがオススメ。

Reviewed by: 犬バカ

The last time I visited, it was a bit late in the evening and there were many people, making it quite crowded both inside and outside the city hall, which made taking photos a bit challenging.

This time, considering I had small children with me, I thought the crowds would be difficult, so I chose to go on a weekday before sunset. The venue was less crowded, and it was much easier to take photos.

After enjoying the inside of the city hall, we went outside as it was getting dark, allowing us to enjoy the outdoor illuminations without the crowds, and we were able to leave early, which was convenient.

Next time I go, I plan to visit on a similar schedule. It seems to have created good memories for the children as well, which was great.

以前に訪れた際は少し夜遅めの時間帯で人も多く、市庁舎の中も外もかなり込み合っていて、写真を撮るのもちょっと大変でした。

今回は小さい子供がいたため人混みは大変だと考え、平日の日没前の時間を選択して参加したところ、会場が空いていて写真も撮りやすかったです。

先に市庁舎の中で楽しんだ後、暗くなるころに外に出れば込み合うことなく屋外のイルミネーションも満喫でき、帰る時間も早めでラクでした。

また行く際は、同じようなスケジュールで訪れようと思います。子供にとってもいい思い出になったようで、良かったです。

City Lights was incredibly enjoyable. This time, since it was the 40th anniversary, there were many beautiful illuminations, making it quite festive. However, the voucher pickup location was listed as "Waikiki Shopping Plaza - Royal Hawaiian Avenue entrance," but in reality, it was across the road from that entrance. I almost got left behind. They were also 15 minutes late, which meant I couldn't enjoy the pre-event. Other than that, I was satisfied.

シティライツは最高に楽しめました。今回は40周年というかとで，イルミネーション飾りも沢山あり、華やかでした。ただ、バウチャーのピックアップ場所は「 ワイキキ ショッピング プラザ - ロイヤルハワイアン通り側出入口」となっていたが、実際は「 ワイキキ ショッピング プラザ - ロイヤルハワイアン通り側出入口の道路向い側」であり、危うく置いていかれるとこでした。時間も15分も遅れてくるし。お陰で事前のイベントも楽しめず。それ以外は満足でした。

With the ocean and Diamond Head as a backdrop, the show was based on history and was so moving that even those who aren't fluent in English could appreciate it. The singing and dancing were incredible and truly touched my heart.

The food was plentiful and delicious, but unfortunately, we couldn't finish it all since we don't eat much. The drink tickets included three drinks plus coffee, but we couldn't use all of our drink tickets. Overall, I was very satisfied.
