All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

The cruise begins with a yacht ride from the beach. It's essential to wear sandals or go barefoot since you'll be getting into the water to board the yacht. Also, be aware that waves may come, so your clothes are likely to get wet! I ended up soaked up to my chest.

Even on the yacht, there's a chance of getting wet. A cool guy on the yacht serves drinks, including Mai Tais and soft drinks. Everyone sits together and enjoys the cruise.

I think it depends on the day, but it was quite rocky that day. Those prone to seasickness should be cautious; my friend got seasick. The kids were with us, but they didn't get sick and had a great time.

While enjoying the waves, I also took in the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki. The highlight was definitely the sunset! It was absolutely beautiful! The cruise continues until the sunset is over.

I highly recommend this tour for those who don't get seasick; it's a unique experience you can only have in Hawaii.

海辺からヨットに乗ってクルージングが始まります。注意は、海に入ってヨットに乗りますから、サンダル履きは必須です。それか、裸足になるか。 あと、波がきますから洋服が濡れる可能性大です！私は、胸あたりまで濡れてしまいました。
ヨットに乗っても濡れる可能性あります。
ヨットでは、カッコいいお兄さんが飲み物を渡してくれます。マイタイ、ソフトドリンクもあります。
皆さんで座っでクルーズします。
日によるのだと思いますが、この日はかなり揺れました。船酔いされる方は要注意です。私のお友達も酔ってしまいました。子供たちも一緒でしたが、子供たちは酔わずとっても楽しんでました。
ダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキを見ながら、私は波も楽しみました。
一番のポイントは、サンセット!とっても綺麗でした！
サンセットが終わるまでクルーズしてくれます。
船酔いがない方には、とってもおすすめでハワイならではのツアーですね。

It's a fun sailing experience with champagne, dancing, and just the two of us being Japanese. The captain and the bartender (who is cute and strong) really liven things up!

シャンパン飲んで、踊って、楽しいｾｰﾘﾝｸﾞです。日本人は私達2人だけでしたが、キャプテンとバーテン(可愛いて逞しい)が盛り上げてくれます‼

Waikiki is known for its many Japanese visitors, but on this cruise, everyone except us was a foreigner! We were able to enjoy a cheerful, exotic atmosphere while sipping cocktails!

日本人が多いワイキキですが、このクルーズは私たち以外は皆外人さん！カクテルを飲みながら陽気な異国の雰囲気を味わえました！

I participated in a sunset cruise for the first time. The waves were quite high and it was rocky, but I was fine since I took motion sickness medication. There was only one other group of Japanese people besides us. We had soft drinks, but everyone else was drinking Mai Tais. It gets a bit chilly, so a jacket is a must. We also got to see dolphins, which was very exciting. I would like to join the Hilton fireworks next time.

初めてサンセットクルーズに参加しました。
結構波が高く揺れましたが酔い止めを飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。日本人は私達の他に1人組みだけでした。私達はソフトドリンクでしたがみなさんはマイタイを飲んでいました♪肌寒くなるので上着は必須です。ドルフィンにも会え大盛り上がりでした。
ヒルトンの花火の金曜日に今度は参加してみたいです。

I watched it with a friend, and it was a fun time that went by in the blink of an eye. Thank you very much. The content was also packed, and I was very satisfied. I would like to watch it again.

友人と観覧しましたが、あっという間の楽しいひと時で、どうもありがとうございました。
内容も、盛りだくさんで、大満足でした。
また、観覧したいと思います。

This year, I went to Hawaii to participate in the Hapalua Marathon. Since I had a busy schedule of 3 nights and 5 days, I arrived without a plan. When the schedule is set from the beginning, I tend to get greedy and end up moving around too much, which prevents me from enjoying the relaxed pace that Hawaii offers. It was great that I could make arrangements on-site the day before! On the day of the event, we were the only Japanese passengers, which made it even more enjoyable. I highly recommend it to everyone.

今年もハパルアマラソン参加でハワイへ行きました。今回は3泊5日と忙しいスケジュールだったのでノープランで到着。初めからスケジュールが決まっていると欲張ってつい動いてしまい、ハワイならではのゆっくりした時間を満喫できなくなってしまうので、現地で動きながら前日に申し込みできるので、とても良かったです！
当日、乗客は日本人は私達のみで、それまた楽しく
皆さんにおすすめです。

17 people! All housewives participating in a large group.
With unlimited alcohol and soft drinks, everyone was in high spirits!
While watching the sunset, we (in our 50s) and other foreigners all had a great time together.
I absolutely recommend it!
It was incredibly fun!

17名！全員主婦の大人数での参加。
アルコール、ソフトドリンク飲み放題で皆んなテンション高め！
サンセットを見ながら私たち(50代)も他の外人の方も皆んなで大盛り上がりで楽しめました。
絶対にオススメです‼︎
最高に楽しかった！

I cannot recommend this sunset cruise enough! My friends and I had an amazing time. The crew and captain were so friendly and welcoming and created such a fun atmosphere on the boat. The views were unbelievably beautiful, we had perfect weather and a gorgeous sunset. The price is more than fair considering the length of time on the water (1.5 hours) and the fact that the drinks are included. I would absolutely do it again!

The content of the show was excellent. Since it combines a Polynesian show with an impersonation show, it might be the perfect choice for those who want to experience a show that feels Hawaiian. In fact, I would overwhelmingly recommend this over a typical Polynesian show.

The premium cocktail show I attended had seats on the second floor, but it offered a good view of the entire stage. If you opt for a dinner package with front-row seats on the first floor, you'll have more opportunities to shake hands with the performers. However, there is a greeting time for all audience members after the show (including photo opportunities), so that's not an issue.

It was a show that made me want to see it again when I revisit Waikiki.

ショーの内容は申し分なし。
ポリネシアンショーとそっくりさんショーの融合なので、ハワイらしいショーも観たいという人にはこれ一つでいいかもしれない。
というか、一般的なポリネシアンショーよりも圧倒的にこちらをお薦めする。

今回利用したプレミアカクテルショーでは二階席となるが、ステージ全体が見渡せるので悪くない。一階前方席が利用出来るディナー付きだと、演者との握手の機会などが増えるが、ショー終了後に観客全員に対するグリーティング(写真撮影も)タイムがあるので問題ない。

ワイキキに再訪する際にはまた観たいと思えるショーだった。

Everything was as promised...and better! Would definitely recommend!

It was great to experience a foreign atmosphere with 80% of the people being Westerners. Those who are not good at English or are prone to seasickness might find it difficult.

欧米人が8割で、外国っという雰囲気が味わえてよかったです。　　英語が苦手な人や船に酔いやすい人はつらいかも

The waves were high, and I felt sorry for the small child who got sick, but our family enjoyed the sunset, sea breeze, and waves. The meeting point was a bit hard to find, but we were satisfied with the sailing.

波が高く、気分が悪くなった小さいお子さんがいらっしゃって気の毒でしたが、うちは一家で夕日、潮風、波を楽しみました。集合場所が分かりにくかったですが、セイリングには満足です。

The sunset cruise on the yacht was absolutely beautiful!

About 30% of the guests were Japanese, and there were no explanations in Japanese, so it might not be suitable for those who are anxious without Japanese language support. I was amazed by how much the guests from other countries enjoyed their drinks! That was fun too.

However, the yacht does sway quite a bit, so I wouldn't recommend it for those who are prone to seasickness. I saw reviews saying it wasn't too rocky, so I thought, "Maybe I'll be okay?" and took some motion sickness medication before participating, but for me, the swaying was significant, and I ended up feeling very seasick. However, I was the only one who got seasick, so I think those who don't worry too much about it can enjoy themselves thoroughly!!!

ヨットでのサンセットクルーズとってもきれいでした！

日本人のお客さんは全体の3割程度で日本語での説明もないので、日本語じゃないと不安な方にはむいてないかもしれません。他の国の方々のお酒の飲みっぷりにおどろかされました！それも楽しかったです。

ただ、わりとヨットが揺れるので船酔いしがちな方にはおすすめしません。あまり揺れないというレビューを見て「これなら大丈夫かな？」と思い酔い止めを飲んで参加したんですが、私にとっては揺れが大きく結局ひどい船酔いになってしましました。でも、船酔いになっていたのは私だけだったので、そんなに心配のない方は十分楽しめると思います!!!

Wow what a great way to see the fireworks over the Hilton Hawaiian on a Friday night in Honolulu. The staff on the MaiTai Catamaran was wonderful and the fresh MaiTais were delicious and refreshing!!!!

About 80% of the guests were from English-speaking countries (there were 6 Japanese people), and the captain and bartender on board were also American. All announcements were in English, but since the explanations for drinks and life jackets were simple, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Personally, I preferred this place over one filled with only Asians. I made friends with other American passengers and had a great time. By the way, drinks were all-you-can-drink, and there was sparkling wine available. My recommendation is the Mai Tai!

利用客の8割型が英語圏の方(日本人は6人)で、クルーとして乗っている船長、バーテンもアメリカ人でした。全てのアナウンスメントが英語ですが、飲み物の説明や救命胴衣の説明などシンプルなものなので、あまり困らないでしょう。
個人的には、アジア人ばかりの場所よりもこちらが好きでした。他のアメリカ人の乗客とも仲良くなり非常にたのしかったです(^^)
ちなみにドリンクは飲み放題でスパークリングワインもありました。イチオシはマイタイです＾＾

Seeing Waikiki from the ocean side and Diamond Head was great, and the sunset was beautiful! I want to participate every time I go to Hawaii.

海側から見るワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドも良かったですし何と言ってもサンセットが綺麗でした！ハワイに行く度に参加したいです。

The crew was nice and competent. But, two groups of early 20's drove the music played by the Captain. Frankly, I didn't take the sunset cruise to listen to music with F- Bombs and MF.

This is the second time we have had an excursion with these guys, last Sept 2016 we did the Sunset one ( sensational !!) This time the fireworks and had the best night. can't wait to come back next year and do it again !!!

I attended a show with family members who were at a wedding. We enjoyed it from the VIP dinner seats. While the first-floor seats allowed us to see the show up close, we had to look up from our seats, making it seem like the second-floor general seating would provide a better overall view of the stage. It was an American-style impersonation show, and not only was the quality impressive, but the structure of the show and the performers' likenesses were also quite moving. Many stars, from Elvis to Michael, made appearances. Additionally, the fire dance and hula dance were very captivating.

結婚式に参加の親族でショーを見学。
ＶＩＰディナー席で観賞しました。
１階席で目の前でショーを見れますが、席からは見上げる形になり
舞台全体を見るなら、２階の一般席の方が見やすそうでした。
アメリカ版モノマネショーでしたが、出来栄えもさることながら
ショーの構成も演者さんのそっくり度も、かなりの感動ものでした。
エルビスからマイコーまで多くのスター？が登場します。
また、ファイアーダンスやフラダンスも、とても見応えはありました。

We had a wonderful sail, and said we could have done it every night of our trip! Unlimited MaiTai's, friendly crew and crowd, it was the perfect way to start the evening! So beautiful and relaxing!

I was a bit worried about taking my 83-year-old sister-in-law on the cruise, but it was really enjoyable. The night view of Waikiki, the fireworks, and the sailing were all very pleasant. While some other catamarans weren't sailing, the captain was great, and I was truly satisfied. When boarding, your feet can get wet, so it might be helpful to bring a towel and find a way to warm your feet. My sister-in-law put her feet in a plastic bag.

83歳の義姉を連れてのクルージングちょっと心配だったのですが楽しかったです。
ワイキキの夜景、花火、セーリングとても気持ちよかったです。他のカタマランはセーリングをしていない船もありましたがキャプテンが良い方で本当に大満足です。乗るときに足がぬれますので、タオル、足を温める工夫が必要かも。義姉はビニール袋に足を入れておりました。

Watching the fireworks from the yacht became a wonderful memory! The night view of Waikiki was beautiful, and everyone was kind! I read reviews that mentioned discrimination against Japanese people, but that was absolutely not the case; they even gave us beer!!

ヨットからみる花火はすごく素敵な思い出になりましたー！ワイキキの夜景もキレイだったし、、みなさんが親切でした！口コミでは日本人を差別するみたいなこと書かれてましたがまったくそんなことは無くビールくれました！！

Basically, if you can speak English and enjoy drinking, you'll have a great time. We were also able to see whales, which I think is a fantastic deal. At first, I was cautious thinking I might get seasick, but I was strongly encouraged with, "You're on the Mai Tai boat, so why aren't you drinking a Mai Tai?!" and after that, it was a big party!

基本的に英語が喋れて、飲める人は、すごく楽しめます。私たちは、クジラを見ることも出来ましたし、凄くお得と思います。最初、船酔いするかもと用心していたら、「マイタイ号に乗ってて、なんでマイタイ飲まないんだ！」とガンガン勧められて、あとはどんちゃん騒ぎでした！

The location of the show is very convenient, making it easy to get to. The food at the show was also very delicious, and the performance itself was impressive and moving. I definitely want to use this again when I go to Hawaii!

ショーの場所は、とても立地が良く、行くのに便利です。ショーの食事もとても美味しくて、ショー自体も迫力があり、とても感動しました。またハワイに行くときは、ぜひ利用したいです！

I was torn between choosing a dinner cruise or something else, but I made the right choice with this one as it offered the most beautiful sunset. The staff were all friendly and kind, and I was able to enjoy a lively cruising experience.

ディナークルーズにするか、悩んでこちらを選んだのですが、最高に美しい夕暮れでこちらを選んで正解でした╰(*´︶`*)╯♡スタッフもみんなフレンドリーで優しくてノリノリなクルージングを楽しむことができました。

Was a great experience. Was extremely fun. Crew was very friendly, funny, and dedicated to giving a great experience. Definitely planning on repeating this.

Wonderful experience. Yummy drinks and a lot of fun.

About 20 minutes after departure, we set sail with the sails up, and right after that, the captain shouted, "Wow, a whale!" Looking ahead, we saw a whale spouting water. The sunset was incredibly beautiful, and we had unlimited drinks including beer, Mai Tais, and soft drinks. The boat also had a proper restroom, which was reassuring. Plus, if you're lucky, you might get to see whales and dolphins like we did—it's a great and easy tour.

Just be careful as the explanations are all in English, and watch out for seasickness. But you can manage to catch the gist of the English through the atmosphere.

出航して20分ほど経ってから帆を張っての航行になるのですが、その直後キャプテンから「ワオ、ホエール！」と大きな声。前をよく見るとなんとクジラが潮吹きしているではありませんか。サンセットがとても美しかったのはもちろん、ビールやマイタイ、ソフトドリンクなどが飲み放題で、船にちゃんとトイレもあるので安心です しかも運が良ければ今回のようにクジラやイルカを見ることもできるお得で手軽なツアーです。
説明が全部英語なのと船酔いだけはお気をつけください。でも英語は雰囲気でなんとか聞き取れますよ。

I'm glad I participated. Although the meeting time was changed the day before, I received notifications via both email and phone, so I was able to join without any worries. It's much quicker and more reliable to enjoy the fireworks than searching for a restaurant at Hilton that has a view of them.

参加して良かったです。前日に集合時間が変更になりましたが、メール、電話の両方で連絡頂き、何の不安もなく参加する事ができました。ヒルトンの花火が見れるレストランを探すより手っ取り早くしかも確実に花火を満喫できます。

We went on a cruise with a senior couple we are close to. This was our second time, following last year, and since we had such a great experience then, we invited the senior couple along. The views from the boat were spectacular, and what I particularly recommend is seeing how the shape of Diamond Head changes from different angles as the boat moves. What made it even better was that the senior couple was truly impressed. We could go every time!

お世話になっている先輩ご夫婦と私たち夫婦でのクールスでした。私たちは昨年に続き２度目で、昨年とてもよかったので先輩ご夫婦をお誘いしました。船からの景観が総会で、とくにおすすめなのが、船からの角度の変化によって、ダイヤモンドヘッドの形が変わっていく様子を見ることができることです。何よりもよかったのが、先輩ご夫婦が感激してくださったことです。毎回行ってもいいですね。
