All Reviews for Honolulu Nightlife & Things to Do

My friends and I had the BEST night in Hawaii with this combo :D The drinks flowed freely (Get the shaker! TOTALLY WORTH IT!), the music was kicking, the views were awesome and the crew was on IT!

We wanted a to see the sunset and have some cocktails AND have a delicious dinner, and this fit the bill perfectly. Rather than shelling out $100 or more for a dinner cruise (basically a floating restaurant), we got to enjoy the sunset while under sail, had all of the booze we could drink (mimosas, mai tais and more!) and then had a yummy dinner that we got to grill up ourselves. Woot! Woot!

The dinner was hella tasty and it was great that we got the combo since I saw people walk up to the hostess at the restaurant and they got told that there would be an hour and a half wait. WHAT!? We checked in and got escorted right to our table. Yup! Yup!

Definitely a great choice for anyone looking to have a great island night in Waikiki~

I participated in a two-hour all-you-can-drink sunset cruise. With good music playing, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the lovely atmosphere! I wanted to drink a lot and soak in the ambiance, but unfortunately, this boat doesn't have a restroom... While there were plenty of elements to enjoy without drinking, it was a bit disappointing not to be able to drink much due to the lack of a restroom, especially since it was an all-you-can-drink option. However, the sunset was so breathtaking that it made me forget about that. Witnessing the moment the sun sets from the boat was incredibly romantic! I joined with two female friends, but I think this tour is perfect for couples and newlyweds. I highly recommend it! I'm glad I could participate without feeling seasick and had a great time.

２時間飲み放題のサンセットクルーズに参加しました。
良い感じの音楽とともに綺麗な景色を眺め、素敵な雰囲気！！
お酒を沢山飲んでこの雰囲気に酔いしれた～いと思ったのですが、この船トイレが無いんですね・・・。
お酒飲まなくても酔いしれる要素は充分にありましたが、せっかくの飲み放題なのにトイレが無いことによってあまり飲めないのはやや残念でした。
でも、そんなことを忘れさせてくれるかのようなサンセットは絶景です。
陽が沈んでいく瞬間を船上で拝めるなんて、何ともロマンティック！！
私は友人(女２人)と参加しましたが、カップルや新婚さんにはもってこいのツアーだと思いました。オススメです！！
船酔いもなく、楽しく参加できて良かったです。

I opted for the buffet style, and the food was delicious. I was able to talk with the people around me, the hula was great, and the show featuring Elvis was cool, with wonderful singing. Of course, Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson were also amazing.

ビュッフェ形式にしましたが、料理も美味しかったし、周りの人達とも話せたしフラも良かったし、ショーもエルビスが格好良かったのと歌もすばらしかったです。
勿論、ガガ、マイケルジャクソンも最高でしたよ。

Today, the wind was strong, and we had the main sail set to one point reef (reefed sail), but as expected from a catamaran yacht, we were able to enjoy the sunset comfortably without heeling. Also, the drinks inside were all-you-can-drink, which might be great for a first round of drinks with friends! I would like to use this service again.

本日は風が強くメインセールは１ポイントリーフ（縮帆）でしたがさすがカタマランヨット、ヒールする事もなく快適にサンセットを楽しむ事ができました。また中での酒は飲み放題で友人との飲み会の一次会にも良いかな！？また利用したいと思います。

My wife and I participated together. The course I chose involved dining outside before watching the show, but even during our meal, the hula dancers we saw before entertained us by coming around the tables to sing and dance. The staff was also very hospitable, making it enjoyable even before the show started. The location was easy to find on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, and of course, the show was fantastic.

家内と二人で参加しました。私が選んだｺｰｽは、外で食事をしてからｼｮｰを見るものでしたが、食事の前に見たﾌﾗﾀﾞﾝｽの人たちが食事中もﾃｰﾌﾞﾙを回って歌や踊りを見せてくれたり、ｽﾀｯﾌもﾎｽﾋﾟﾀﾘﾃｨ溢れていて、ｼｮｰを見る前から楽しめます。場所もﾛﾔﾙﾊﾜｲｱﾝｾﾝﾀｰ４階と分かり易く、勿論ｼｮｰも最高でした。

I entered the restaurant at 6:30 PM and enjoyed dinner on the terrace while chatting with a Japanese person at the next table. The food was just average; it wasn't particularly delicious or bad. However, incorporating hula into the experience made it truly enjoyable. So, the food didn't really matter. From 8:00 PM, there was a fun showtime featuring well-structured performances with songs and dances from Gaga, Michael, and Elvis. It was seriously fun! At the end, we took a photo together, which became a nice memory. Thank you! The Elvis impersonator and the photo with my daughter were great.

18：30に入店し、テラスでディナーをしていると相席の日本人の方とお話しながら、お食事を進めました。お食事は　まぁ普通で特に美味しいとかまずいとかはないです。でも、フラを間に取り入れてくれて本当に楽しい時間でした。だから、食事はどうでもよかったです。２０：００からは楽しいショウータイムで、ガガ、マイケル、エルビスと歌に踊りにフラによく構成された内容でした。マジ！！楽しかったです。最後は　写真を一緒に撮ってくれて、思い出になりました。サンキュー♪　エルビスのそっくりさん、娘とのフォトGOODでしたよ。

I thought the event might be canceled because it was raining quite heavily by the meeting time, but we set sail 30 minutes late in light rain. There were only two Japanese families, including us; the rest were all foreigners. Mai Tai was served, and we all toasted together. Mixing with the cheerful foreigners and aided by the drinks, we ended up having quite a bit of fun. Although the enjoyment of sipping cocktails while watching the setting sun was somewhat diminished, the rain stopped, and we were treated to a beautiful double rainbow, so it turned out well.

集合時間になっても結構強い雨が降っていたので中止になるのかと思っていましたが、30分遅れで小雨の中を出航。日本人は私たちともう1家族だけで後はすべて外国人でした。マイタイがサーブされてみんなで乾杯。陽気な外国人に混ざって、酔いも手伝って結構はしゃいでしまいました。沈みゆく夕日を見ながらカクテルをという楽しみは半減しましたが、雨がやんでダブルの虹がきれいに見えていたので良しとしました。

Since it was my first time, I think it was good to see it at least once. The food was average, but it was served quickly. The fire show was the most impressive.

はじめてだったので、一度は見ておいてよかったかたかと思います。
お料理は普通ですが、しまわれるのが早かった。
ファイアーショウが一番見応えがありました。

Honestly, it could not have been better! Everything was perfect!!! Recommend? YES, absolutely!

The title is a little confusing when booking the Friday sunset cocktail sail ...... kinda sounds like you're getting the fireworks at the end. Unfortunately, that's a totally different sail, but would have been nice. The sail kind of just goes back and forth between the Hilton and the Westin until sunset then goes in. I wasn't fond of the run drink they served, but it comes with the price. All in all, the captain and 1 person crew/bartender were accommodating. I would recommend it.

I read the reviews and everyone had such great things to say that I really wanted to participate, so I joined the Green Room Dinner Show monitor tour. Since our hotel was Aulani, a Disney Resort in the Ko Olina area, I was very grateful for the transportation provided to this location.

We left the hotel at 3:50 PM and, despite getting caught in quite a bit of traffic around Waikiki, we arrived at the venue around 5:20 PM. Since the entrance was at 6:00 PM, we had to wait about 40 minutes near the VIP entrance, which left us with some extra time, but once we got inside, we had a wonderful time.

First, only three groups of ten people were guided into the Green Room, where we were served cocktails and some snacks and fruits. We took photos with an Elvis impersonator who came to greet us (this photo was included in the tour price, and we also got Elvis's autograph after the show).

After that, the theater manager gave us a fun tour of the backstage and dressing rooms, and we even took photos on stage. We then joined the VIP tour group for dinner, and our seats were right up close to the stage, allowing us to enjoy a very powerful show.

The meal started with lobster, and the meat was tender, with the mashed potatoes as a side being very delicious. However, the mashed potatoes might have been a bit too much in quantity. I ordered a non-alcoholic Blue Hawaii drink, which was also tasty. The chocolate cake for dessert was very good, but it was a bit too sweet for us Japanese, making it hard to finish.

The show featured Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Lady Gaga. All three were excellent singers, and the performance was fantastic. The luau that took place between their shows was also of very high quality.

From start to finish, I had a truly enjoyable time and was very satisfied. At 9:40 PM, we were guided to the shuttle and taken back to the hotel. The people who provided the transportation and the woman who guided us to the venue were all very friendly and kind, making for a truly wonderful half-day experience, for which I am very grateful.

Next time I visit Hawaii (even if it's not a monitor tour), I definitely want to participate again.

レビューを読ませていただき皆さんの評判がとても良かったのでぜひ参加したいと思いグリーンルーム・ディナーショーのモニターツアーに参加させて頂きました。
今回私たちは滞在ホテルがコオリナ地区のアウラニディズニーだったのでこちらまでの送迎があったのもとても有難かったです。
さてPM3:50にホテルを出発して途中ワイキキ付近ではかなりの渋滞に巻き込まれながらもPM5:20くらいには会場まえに到着しました。入場はPM6:00ということでVIP入口付近で40分ほどの待ち時間があり少し時間を持て余してしまいましたが、入場してからはとても素敵な時間を過ごせました。
まずグリーンルームに3グループ10人だけが案内され、カクテルとちょっとしたおつまみ・果物のサービスを受け、挨拶に来てくれたエルビスのそっくりさんと各グループづつ写真を撮ってもらいました。(この写真はツアー料金に含まれっており、私たちはショー終了後にエルビスにサインもしてもらいました。)
その後劇場支配人がバックステージと楽屋を案内してくれてとても楽しく説明してくださり、舞台上で写真も撮ってもらいました。
その後VIPツアーの方たちと合流してお食事を頂きましたが、やはり席は舞台かぶりつきでとても迫力あるショーを楽しめました。
お食事はロブスターに始まりお肉も柔らかく付け合わせのマッシュポテトもとても美味しかったです。ただマッシュポテトちょっと量が多すぎたかな？
飲み物は私はノンアルコールのブルーハワイを頼みましたがこれも美味しかったです。
デザートのチョコレートケーキも味はとても良かったのですが、日本人の私たちにはちょっと
甘すぎて完食は厳しい感じでした。
今回のショーの出演はエルビスプレスリー・マイケルジャクソン・レディーガガでした。3人ともとても歌がうまくて素晴らしいショーでした。パフォーマンス最高です。
彼らのショーの合間に行われたルアウもとてもクオリティの高いものでした。
最初から最後まで本当に楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来てとても満足しました。
PM9:40に送迎車に案内されホテルまで送ってもらいました。
送迎してくれた人たちも会場まで案内してくれた女性も皆とても気さくで親切な人たちだったので本当に素晴らしい半日を過ごすことが出来、とても感謝しています。
次回ハワイに行った折には(例えモニターツアーで無かっとしても)ぜひ参加したいと思っています。

Although my stay in Hawaii was short, it was my first trip to Hawaii, and I was overwhelmed by the various entertainment options. However, this live performance was packed with authentic live music, hula dancing, and Polynesian culture, and I was very satisfied. There were also many honeymooners from around the world.

今回、ハワイ滞在期間が短いものの、初めてのハワイ旅行ということで、色々なエンタメが魅力的で困っていましたが、このライヴは、本格的なライヴもフラダンスもポリネシアンもすべてがギュッと詰まっていて大満足でした。
世界中からハネムーンで来てるお客さんも多かったです。

We did the activity our first night and Hawaii and it started the trip off right. We had a wonderful time!

We took the sunset cruise on our last night in Waikiki. It was such a fun way to end our trip! The crew was great and took great care of us aboard the boat. It was such a relaxing way to spend the evening. If we lived closer, I would take this cruise all the time!

This is Hawaii!
It's incredibly refreshing!
The scenery is wonderful!
Last time, I watched the fireworks from Mai Tai on Friday night, but this time, I recommend the sunset!

これぞハワイ！
最高に気持ちいい！
素晴らしい景色！
前回は金曜夜の花火をマイタイからみましたが、今回のサンセットのほうがオススメです！

Was it because of the sunset? We waited over 30 minutes before departure, but we got to see a beautiful sunset. The crew was very friendly, and they kept refilling our wine, which made us very satisfied. It's a great tour for those who enjoy drinking.

日の入りの関係か？出航まで30分以上待たされましたが、綺麗なサンセットが見れました。クルーたちも大変気さくで、ワインのお代わりもいっぱい注いでもらい大満足でした。お酒好きにはお得なツアーです。

My fiancé & I absolutely loved every second of this sunset cruise. The staff is fantastic, the drinks are amazing, & the views are just perfect. We have already decided on our next trip, we will for sure be doing this again. If you're smart, you'll take them up on the offer prior to boarding the boat. They offer a shaker with a house cocktail which you get before boarding to pregame but it also gets you on the boat before anybody else (plus the drink is so so good)

I participated in a tour during Silver Week. The sunset viewed from the catamaran and the Waikiki sunset were amazing. The Mai Tai was a bit weak in alcohol but still delicious. I switched to beer and enjoyed a few Mai Tais along with some beer. We encountered some rain and got soaked, but that was part of the fun. It was a very enjoyable two hours.

The only downside was that although the meeting time was set for 5 PM, when I asked the staff before 5 PM, they said, "We won't check in for another 20 minutes," and we ended up waiting nearly 30 minutes before departure. I wish I could have done more shopping during that time, so I deducted one star for that. However, it was such a fun tour that I almost forgot about that.

シルバーウィークにツアーに参加してきました。
カタマランから見るサンセット、ワイキキの夕日、　最高でした。
マイタイもアルコールが薄いけれども　おいしかったです。
ビールへの変更もでき、マイタイ数杯と、ビールを飲んできました。
途中で雨に会い、びしょ濡れになりましたが、これも醍醐味。
とても楽しい2時間でした。
ただマイナス点は、集合時間が5時になっていたのに、5時前に係りの人に尋ねると、「後20分くらいしないとチェックしない」と言われ、出航まで結局 30分近く待っていました。
それならもっと買い物したかったのに、、、と時間がすこしもったいなかったのでマイナス星１つです。
でもそれを忘れるくらいたのしいツアーでした。

On the evening of our arrival in Honolulu, we boarded the Mai Tai Catamaran. A nice breeze was blowing, and it was perfect cruising weather with big waves. We thoroughly enjoyed a wonderful sunset with cocktails in hand, accompanied by a lively crew and great background music. I will definitely ride again!

ホノルル到着日の夕方にマイタイ・カタマラン号に乗り込みました。良い風が吹き、波も大きなクルーズ日和。ノリの良いクルーとBGMでカクテル片手に素晴らしいサンセットを心行くまで楽しみました。また絶対乗ります！

We booked this event last minute e.g. the afternoon before the event day and we're lucky that we got on. We enjoyed the trip. The food was ok perhaps average for the price of the event. 2 alcoholic baverages were included subsequent alcoholic drinks were 1$ (beer, wine) or 2$ (cocktails, mixed drinks) which is very cheap. So a good deal for people who can drink a lot. The crew was friendly, helpful and knowledgable.

We were a family of 8 people that included 4 young adult children looking for a fireworks cruise that included dinner and found this cruise on this website that was very well priced.
The fireworks are on at the Hilton Hawaiian Village every Friday night and the Hilton put on a fireworks cruise at a more expensive price but I wasn't sure if we would like the food so decided to go for this cruise that included BBQ buffet dinner at Shore Bird restaurant in the Outrigger hotel. We met the Holokai catamaran on the beach directly out front of the Shore Bird restaurant. The crew were friendly and we were able to purchase our drinks on board and got to keep our cocktail shaker that we bought our drinks in, nice souvenir! We sailed out to position in front of the Hilton Hotel Rainbow tower.
Such a lovely tour to do whether you are a small or large group and then return to the beach to make your way to a BBQ of fish,chicken or steak and help yourself to the all you can eat salad buffet followed by desert.
We had the steak and fish for dinner and we're happy with our meals, I especially liked their potato salad int the salad buffet as well.
The restaurant overlooks the beach and they also have karaoke. I would highly recommend this cruise as it is well priced and it gives you the option of dinner or no dinner if you would prefer to eat elsewhere.

The service was excellent, and the food, especially the truffle mashed potatoes, was delicious. The show was lively and enjoyable, with many non-Japanese audience members present.

サービスはとても良く、食事は特にトリュフ入りのマッシュポテトが美味でした。
ショーは観客にたくさんの日本人以外の方がいらっしゃったので盛り上がり楽しかったです。

It seems that the cruise on Saturday coincided with a local anniversary gathering, resulting in quite a crowd. There was also a group of about eight Japanese people from a company trip in the Kansai area. The crew was all very friendly, and we had a great time. The boat goes quite fast. Since we departed in the evening, it was a great idea to bring a long-sleeved shirt. We were able to take some lovely sunset photos. Since there was an all-you-can-drink option, be aware that while there are restrooms available, my husband and son mentioned that it might be a bit difficult for women to use them.

土曜日のクルーズと言う事と、地元の人の記念日の集まりにも重なったようで、かなりの人出でした。関西方面の会社の社員旅行の8名ほどの日本人のグループもご一緒でした。クルーは全員大変にフレンドリーで楽しめました。船はかなりスピードが出ます。夕方出発と言う事もあり、長そでを一枚持って行って大正解。素敵なサンセットの写真も撮れました。飲み放題と言う事もあり、飲み過ぎてしまうとトイレもありますが、女性はちょっと入りにくいだろうと、主人や息子の感想でしたのでご注意を。

Last year, I attended the "VIP Dinner & Cocktail Show," and both the food and the show were excellent, so I was determined to end my last night in Oahu here. This year, I upgraded to the "Green Room & Dinner Show." Unexpectedly, I was able to participate through a monitor tour.

Before entering the venue, I handed over my voucher at the reception and received a neck strap pass. At that moment, I felt like Cinderella. A charming and elegant prince guided us to the Green Room. There was drink service, but there wasn't much time to relax and enjoy. On that day, there were three other participants besides us. We sat on the white sofa indoors and took some photos.

After that, we were guided through the stage setup, lighting, costumes, props, and dressing rooms with clear explanations. I felt like a star on the empty stage and took a snapshot there too! Thanks to the backstage tour, I found the show I usually watch casually even more interesting, with quick costume changes and surfboards crossing the stage.

The dinner featured tender steak and mashed potatoes, which were delicious. The tasty bread was available for seconds. The salmon and lobster had a slightly fishy taste. The dessert was quite sweet, but it paired perfectly with the coffee.

The show featured Elvis, Michael, and Little Richard. Since I had familiarized myself with the lyrics beforehand, I was even more moved than last time. The dancers, including those performing Tahitian hula, delivered sharp performances that transported me to a dream! Especially the fire dancer's powerful and beautiful dance is something words can't express. You must experience it for yourself.

昨年参加した≪VIPディナー＆カクテルショー≫が食事、ショー共に内容がとても良かったので、オアフ最後の夜は絶対ここで締めようと思っていました。
今年は≪グリーンルーム＆ディナーショー≫にグレードアップ。思いがけずモニターツアーで参加出来ました。

会場に入る前に受付でバウチャーを渡し、ネックストラップのパスを受け取ります。この瞬間からシンデレラに変身？上品で素敵な王子様がグリーンルームに案内してくれます。ドリンクのサービスが有りますが、のんびり楽しむ程の時間はありません。当日は私達の他に３人の参加が有りました。室内の白いソファに腰掛け写真を撮ってもらいました。

その後、舞台装置や照明、衣装、小道具、楽屋などを分かりやすい説明を交え案内してくれました。まだ誰もいない舞台でスターになった気分でここでもパチリ！スターの早変わりや舞台を横切るサーフボードなどバックステージツアーのおかげで普段何気なく見ているショーが一層、面白く感じました。

ディナーの柔らかいステーキとマッシュポテトが美味しい。これまた美味しいパンはおかわり
できます。サーモンとロブスターは少し生臭い気がしました。デザートはかなり甘いのですが
珈琲とベストマッチです。

エルビス・マイケル・リトルリチャード３人のショーでした。前もって代表的な歌詞の内容を把握して行ったので、前回以上に感激しました。
タヒチアンフラを含めダンサー達の切れの良いパフォーマンスにしばし夢の中！特にファイアーダンサーの力強く美しいダンスはとても口では表現できません。是非ご自身で感じてください。

I got bored during the show.
There wasn't much to eat. If you miss the first round, there's nothing left.
The seating is arranged in two rows in a U-shape with the stage in the center. The front row seems to be reserved for guests, so you can't sit there even if you arrive early.
You have to wait until the people in the front row finish before you can go to the buffet.
It's expensive for what you get, but since it's the Hilton, I suppose that's to be expected.
It became a memorable family trip.

ショーは途中で飽きちゃいました。
食事は食べるのもがあまりない。最初に取り損ねるともうありません。
席は２列でコの字でステージが中央にある。前列は宿泊者専用なのか早くても座れません。
バイキングの取りに行く順番も前列の席の人が終わってからじゃないといけません。
値段の割には高いですがヒルトンなので仕方が無いと思います。
家族旅行の記念にはなりました。

I made a reservation because I wanted to see hula (since it feels like Hawaii). The food was quite delicious, and the atmosphere was nice. Additionally, it was fun to see various Polynesian dances, not just hula. The Tahitian performance was the most exciting, and my dad was invited on stage to dance, which made for a fun experience. Since we chose the standard seating, the stage was a bit far, but they danced facing different directions, so it was enjoyable even from the side. It was a bit pricey, but I think it was worth the cost.

フラが見たくて（ハワイっぽいから）予約しました。食事も結構美味しかったし、雰囲気も良かった。それに、フラだけではなくポリネシアンのいろいろなダンスが見られて楽しかった。タヒチは一番盛り上がり、うちのパパは誘われてステージにあがって踊らされ、楽しく過ごせた。スタンダードにしたのでステージは少し遠かったけど、いろいろな方向を向いてダンスしてくれていたので正面じゃなくても楽しめる内容だった。少し割高だけど、値段だけのことはあると思いました。

We participated as a family of three. Unfortunately, due to the poor weather and high waves, some people became unwell. However, the boarding area was good, taking less than 10 minutes from the Royal Hawaiian Center. I think it's very nice that you can interact with other travelers since it's a shared experience.

Depending on the weather, it could be the best experience!

3家族で参加しました。天候が芳しくなく波が高かった為、体調不良者も出て残念でした。
しかし、乗船場もロイヤルハワイアンセンターから10分掛からずにＧＯＯＤ。乗り合いの為、他の旅行者とも交流ができる点は非常に良いと思います。

天候次第では最高になると思います！！

Overall we had a good time at the Luau. I felt the food was pretty good with the exception of the fish not being cooked enough but the wife felt the food was lacking a fair bit. The show was very enjoyable and entertaining. Met some great folks at the table with us and overall really enjoyed the show.

+ The sunset is beautiful
+ Drink as much as you want!
+ Crew was friendly and we stayed a bit longer
+ The extras: they take a nice photo of you

I had decided during my last trip that I would definitely go see this next time, and my wish came true. The newlyweds who joined us were friendly and refreshing, which was great.

As for the show, perhaps my expectations were too high... ^^; Michael Jackson was amazing, but I thought Elvis could have been even more over-the-top.

I believe there was an announcement that photography was allowed as long as no flash was used, but I was taking pictures without flash and was still told off by a staff member. I wonder why that happened?

前回の旅行時点で次は絶対見に行こうと決めていて念願がかないました。
同席した新婚さんも気さくで爽やかな方達で良かったです。
ショーの感想ですが期待が大きすぎたせいか・・・^^;
マイケル・ジャクソンは素晴らしかったですがエルビスはもっとオーバーアクションでも良かったと思いました。

フラッシュを使わなければ撮影OKとアナウンスがあったと思いましたが、フラッシュ無しで撮影してたのに係の人に注意されましたが何故でしょう？
