All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

The weather was perfect! Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins, but it was still very enjoyable. My husband and I wore sneakers, which was a mistake. It's better to wear flip-flops or something similar. Also, if you go to the front of the boat, be prepared to get wet from the splashes; wearing something that can get wet makes it much more fun. My daughter and I were in regular clothes, but we enjoyed the thrill and the stunning views while getting completely soaked!

お天気にも恵まれて最高でした！残念ながらイルカには会えませんでしたがとても良かったです。夫とわたしはスニーカーを履いて行きましたがそれは失敗。ビーサンなどで行くのが良いです。また船の先端は水しぶきが凄く濡れてもいい格好で行くととても楽しめます。娘と私は普通の洋服でしたがずぶ濡れになりながらスリルと絶景を楽しんでいました！

We participated as a couple in our thirties. By chance, the receptionist was Japanese, and after handing over our voucher, we were guided to our seats. Since it was a VIP buffet, we received a drink service voucher and had priority in the buffet line. The seating was at a long table, and for pairs, we were seated next to each other, while the opposite side was a different group. Since we couldn't speak English well, it felt a bit awkward. However, the food was very delicious, and we were satisfied. During dinner, there was also a hula dance performance, and although we didn't participate in the dance lesson that took place, we enjoyed it to some extent.

The Rock-a-Hula show featured professional dancers performing hula, which was of impressive quality and enjoyable until the end. I recognized many parts of the Michael Jackson impersonation, but I was not familiar with Elvis, which made me feel a bit out of sync with those around me.

アラサー夫婦二人で参加しました。たまたまなのか日本人の受付の方で、バウチャーを渡すと案内してもらえました。VIPビュッフェとのことでワンドリンクのサービス券と、ビュッフェに並ぶ順番が優先されました。席は長テーブルで、ペアの場合隣通しで案内されるので、正面は別グループの方でした。英語ができない私達は少し気まずかったです。ただ、食事は非常に美味しく満足でした。ディナー中もフラダンスもあり、途中行われたダンスレッスンには参加こそしませんでしたがまずまず楽しめました。
ロック・ア・フラショーはプロのダンサーたちのフラダンスはさすがのクオリティで見応え十分で最後まで楽しめました。マイケルジャクソンのモノマネは知っている部分も多かったですが、エルヴィスはほとんど知らず周りとはやや温度差を感じました。

First, we had a meal. The food was delicious. They guided us in order, so we could eat without feeling rushed. The show featuring Elvis was amazing. He came to the audience and was very engaging. The fire dance was also wonderful. I thought the hula dancer was fantastic, as she perfectly executed various other dances as well. However, the most impressive was Michael. He was a bit overweight, but his face resembled the original.

The location was hard to find. We were about 30 minutes late. I recommend checking the map thoroughly before heading out.

まず、最初に食事でした。食事はおいしかったです。順番に案内してくれるので、焦る事なく食べる事ができました。ショーはエルビスが最高でした。客席まで来てくれて、サービス精神旺盛でした。炎のダンスも素敵でした。フラダンスを踊るダンサーは、他の色々なダンスも完璧にこなして素晴らしい、と思いました。でも、1番印象的だったのは、マイケルでした。太り過ぎだろ、、、顔は似ていました。
場所が分かりにくいです。30分位遅刻しました。しっかり地図を確認して出かけるこおをお勧めします。

Staying at the Hilton made transportation convenient.
I had to wait about 30 minutes from the meeting time until being shown to my seat. There is room for improvement.
The prices differ between the stage area and other areas. The order for the buffet is also different.
Once you take your meal, it will be cleared away afterward, so it's necessary to take what you want at the beginning without hesitation. The show time has also become shorter than before.

ヒルトン宿泊だった為、移動は便利であった。
集合時間から、席への案内まで30分程待たされた。改善の余地あり。
ステージの周囲とそれ以外で価格が違う。ブッフェの順番も違う。
食事は1回取ると後は片付けられるので、遠慮なくはじめに取っておく必要がある。ショーの時間も以前より短くなった。

Great greeters, buffet. Dinner entertainment and show! Beverages were bad. The Mai Tai didn't taste like a MT. Sdas watered down or missing half required syrup at $5 each. Excellent value. My teen son loved it. We all did. Thank you.

I booked a plan without meals that includes photos. I chose this because the reviews for the meals weren't great, but I think the plan without meals was sufficient. It felt like being in a movie theater where I could order drinks and enjoy the show while sipping on them. The seats were closer than I expected and easy to see!

2回席食事なし写真付きプランで予約しました。
食事の口コミがよくなかったので無しにしましたが
食事なしのプランでも充分だと思います。
映画館の様なところでドリンクを注文して、飲みながらショーを楽しむことができました。
席も思っていたよりも近くて見やすかったです！

We were the only Japanese people there, but it wasn't a problem that we couldn't speak English. There was some music and drinks that we could pay for as we went, and looking at Waikiki from the sea was a different experience that made for a very satisfying time.

日本人は私達だけでしたが英語が話せなくとも問題無いです。多少の音楽と、都度払いのお酒があり、ワイキキを海から眺めるのは又違う体験でとても満足した時間を過ごせました。

It's been four years since my last visit to Hawaii. About 15 years ago, I also took a ride on a catamaran, and the view of Waikiki from the sea was just as wonderful as I remembered. A sea turtle even popped its head up, and I felt lucky.

I completely forgot that I get motion sickness and ended up feeling nauseous, but the staff were attentive and offered ice, checking on my condition multiple times. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had prepared some motion sickness medication.

4年ぶりのHawaii。15年くらい前にもカタマラン号に乗船したことがありますが、海から見るワイキキの景色は昔と同じで素晴らしかったです。ウミガメも顔を出してくれて、幸運をもらった気分でした。
乗り物に弱いことをすっかり忘れて、乗り物酔いしてしまいましたが、氷をサービスして下さってスタッフは体調に気遣いして何度も声をかけてくださいました。酔い止めを準備しておくともっと楽しめたと思います。

We purchased a plan just for the show with our family, and since we arrived a bit early, we were able to sit in the front row, which was great. The show lasted about two hours and included traditional hula dancing, performances by Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators, and fire dancing, making it a very fulfilling experience. Additionally, after the show, we were able to take photos with the performers and get their autographs, so it was a lot of fun right until the very end.

家族でショーだけのプランを購入しましたが、少し早めに着いたこともあり、前の方の席で観れたのでとてもよかったです。約2時間のショーで伝統的なフラダンスから、エルヴィスとマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのショー、ファイヤーダンスもありとても充実したショーでした。また、終わった後に出演者と写真を撮ったりサインをもらうことができたので、最後の最後までとても楽しかったです。

I was a little late, and my husband and I hurried to the Royal Hawaiian Center for the luau, arriving about 10 minutes past the start time. However, we made it just in time, and as soon as we reached the reception, we were kindly greeted. Since we had opted for the commemorative photo, the photographer took our pictures. While we listened to the music leaking from the venue, we excitedly rushed to open the door to the second-floor seating area, where the actor playing Elvis Presley was performing with singing and dancing. I was already in a great mood and sat in the empty seats at the back! (You can see perfectly well from the back of the second floor!) The person playing Michael Jackson was also incredibly cool with both his singing and dancing. I was deeply moved to see the hula, which is a traditional Hawaiian dance, as well as the fire performances. During the final photo session with the actors, they happily obliged for autographs, and it was amazing to take pictures with Elvis and Michael! The actors looked just like them, haha. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

少し遅刻してしまい、ロックフラの会場のロイヤルハワイアンセンターまで夫と二人駆け足でいき、時間10分くらい過ぎてしまったのですがなんとか到着し、受付にくるとすぐに親切に声をかけてくださり、記念写真のオプションもつけていたので、カメラマンさんに撮影していただき、会場からの音漏れを聞きながらワクワク急いで二階席の会場の扉をあけるとエルヴィスプレスリー役の役者さんが歌とダンスでパフォーマンスしていて、もう気分はルンルンで後ろのすいてる席に座りました♪(二階席後ろでも全然よく見えます！マイケルジャクソン役の方も、歌もダンスもすごくカッコよくて、フラはハワイの伝統的なダンスやファイヤーのパフォーマンスも観れて大感動でした。最後の役者さんとの記念撮影の時はサインも快く応じてくだり、エルヴィスとマイケルと写真を撮れるなんて最高でした！！役者さんそっくりです笑
素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。

Our guides were super entertaining and helpful.
Some outstanding, picturesque views from the sail! Very nice experience!

Hanauma Bay is a beautiful place and the water is so pretty. The day we went, it was unfortunately very windy and the water was pretty choppy. We were able to see some fish, but the water wasn’t very clear due to the waves, but that’s nature for you! The snorkeling gear was very difficult for me. Water kept getting into my mask and it was very uncomfortable. I wish I had my own full face mask. But it was still an enjoyable time and would do it again. Our driver to the location was very friendly and did a great job. It was through kaimana tours.

The reception staff included Japanese speakers, which was reassuring.
It's a Hawaiian show that you can enjoy starting from dinner before the show begins.
The food included Hawaiian dishes that we wouldn't typically choose ourselves, and everything was delicious, even the dessert!

The show was enjoyable for all ages, tracing the history of hula as well as famous artists.

My parents are from the perfect generation and used to listen to this music a lot, so I want to take them next time.

受付には日本語対応のスタッフさんもいらっしゃって安心でした。
ショー開始前のディナーから楽しめるハワイショーです。
食事もハワイのお料理など自分たちでは選ばないようなものばかり、
味も美味しくデザートまで楽しめました！

ショーはフラの歴史はもちろん有名アーティストの歴史をたどるような年代に関係なく楽しめるものでした。

両親がドンピシャ世代で昔良く聞いていたので今度は連れて行ってあげたいなと思っています。

The wait from when we were seated until the meal started was quite long, and I ended up having a lot of time on my hands. We were seated at a long table in the order we arrived, so the people sitting next to me were from groups I didn't know at all. While we were waiting, a local person with a ukulele sang songs upon request, but they weren't very good, and it was quite tough to be forced to tip them. However, the food was delicious, and I enjoyed the hula show.

席に座ってからご飯が始まるまでの時間が長く、かなり時間を持て余してしまいました。席は来た順番に長机に向かい合わせで座っていくので両隣はまったく知らないグループになります。待っている間ウクレレをもった現地の方が勝手にリクエストに応じて歌ってくれますがあまり上手でとなく、またチップを強制的に払わされるのが結構しんどかったです。でもご飯はおいしかったですし、フラショーは楽しめました。

Really fun evening! We would recommend this luau to our friends visiting.

On our honeymoon, we wanted to experience the essence of Hawaii on our first day, so we participated in this show!

First, we were excited to receive leis around our necks! When we sat at our table, there were two other Japanese couples already there.

As soon as we sat down, a woman with a ukulele appeared, inserting a $10 bill into her instrument. After playing a couple of songs, she immediately asked, "Do you know tip?" which, while feeling somewhat American, was a bit of a letdown. I wondered how much tip we would be expected to pay before even eating (laughs). The other Japanese couples at the same table seemed a bit taken aback.

After that, we enjoyed our meal while watching hula dancing. The food and the dance were not bad, but I felt that we shouldn't expect the same level of hospitality as in Japan.

The following show was of very high quality and quite lively. The dancers all looked like they were having fun, and it was really enjoyable to watch.

At the end, I got a photo and autograph from Michael. This was a nice keepsake!

I think once is enough for this experience, but since the location is good, participating in the show just to feel the Hawaiian vibe might be worth it!

ハネムーン、着いた初日にハワイらしさを味わいたく、このショーに参加しました！
まずはレイを首にかけて貰ってテンションアップ！テーブルに着席すると同じく日本人カップルがもう2組いました。
着席するやいなや、ウクレレを持ったおばさんがウクレレに10ドル紙幣を挟み登場。2曲ほど弾いたあとに、Do you know tip〜? とすかさず聞いてきて、ある意味アメリカらしさを感じつつも興醒めしました。ご飯を食べる前からこれか、一体いくらチップを払わされるんだろう…と(笑) 同テーブルの日本人カップルは若干みんな引き気味でした。

その後はフラダンスを観ながらご飯を食べました。ダンスもご飯も悪くはありませんが、日本ほどのホスピタリティを求めて行ってはいけないかなと感じました。

その後のショーはとてもクオリティも高く、盛り上がりました。ダンサーさん達もみんな楽しそうに踊っていて、観ていてとても楽しかったです。

最後にマイケルに写真とサインをしてもらいました。これは良い記念になりました！

1度行けばもういいかなと思いますが、まぁ立地も良いですしハワイらしさを感じるにはとりあえずショーだけ参加するのはありかもね！と思います。

The location was great, making it convenient for shopping and dining. The shows featuring not only hula dancers but also singers impersonating Elvis and Michael Jackson were very impressive. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand the exchanges in English between the performers and the audience. It seemed that the American tourists from the mainland enjoyed it even more.

立地が良いので、買い物や食事に合わせて利用できた。フラのみならずプレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンに扮した歌手によるショーは見ごたえ充分。残念なのは、タレントと観客との英語による応酬がこちらに分からなかったこと。本土から来た米人観光客たちは、一層楽しんだようだった。

It took about 30 minutes from the time we sat down for our meal and received our drinks until we went to the buffet. The roast beef at the buffet was delicious. The show was so enjoyable that I was completely captivated. I experienced a lot during this trip, but this was my favorite.

食事の席に着いてドリンクが来てからビュッフェを取りに行くまでの時間が30分ほどありました。ビュッフェはローストビーフが美味しかったです。ショーは全てが見入ってしまう程楽しかったです。この旅で色々体験しましたが一番お気に入りでした。

I wasn't very interested in the show at first, but I made a reservation anyway. However, once I participated, I had a great time and I'm glad I went! My family enjoyed it as well! It was also nice to have time to take photos with the performers after the show!

あまりショーは興味がなかったのですが、とりあえず予約しました。
しかし参加してみるとすごい楽しく、参加して良かったです！家族も楽しんでおりました！
ショーの後に演者と写真をとれる時間もまたよかったです！

During the cruise, I encountered a pod of dolphins!! They were jumping around just like you would see in an aquarium, and it was amazing! Also, there were plenty of sea turtles swimming around, which was great!!

I was expecting to see tropical fish like Nemo since it was a glass-bottom boat, but I only saw some dark, plain fish, which was a bit disappointing. However, I'm glad I participated!

クルーズ途中、イルカの群れに出会えました！！
まるで水族館で見るようにイルカ達が飛び跳ねていてすごかったです！
また、当たり前にウミガメもたくさん泳いでいました！！

グラスボートということでニモをはじめとした熱帯魚が見れると期待していましたが、黒っぽい地味な魚がみられるだけでそこはちょっと残念でした。
でも参加してよかったです！

The level of dancing was high, and even the children who didn't know the era enjoyed it. The adults had a great time in a tipsy mood after dinner.

踊りのレベルが高く、時代を知らない子供達も楽しんでいました。大人はディナーの後のほろ酔い気分で最高でした。

The show was wonderful, but I was disappointed with the waiting time from check-in to being seated and the quality of the food.

ショーは素晴らしかったですが、チェックインタイムから着席までの待ち時間と料理の質にゲンナリしました。

I thought there would be many Japanese participants, but about 80% of the group was non-Japanese. With so many people, I expected the buffet to be more crowded, but everyone maintained order, and we were able to enjoy our meal without chaos. The taste was average, but since it's a buffet, the portions were generous, and the two included drinks made it feel like a good deal.

The show is recommended for those who might get bored with just hula, as well as fans of Elvis and Michael Jackson. While the impersonations of Elvis and Michael Jackson don't go beyond imitation, the stage is luxurious, the sound quality is good, and they perform classic hit songs, so I think you'll enjoy it. The hula performance was impressive from the VIP seats. Please see the photos. You can take pictures freely without flash (video and recording are not allowed).

Here are some points to note: The reception staff can speak Japanese, but once you enter the dining area, it's in English. The meal is outdoors, while the show is indoors with air conditioning, so it's advisable to bring a jacket. The show ends after 9 PM, and there are no trolleys for the return; you'll need to walk, take a taxi, or use The BUS if you're able. For those staying nearby, it shouldn't be a problem.

Overall, it's a comfortable evening event.

参加者は日本人が多いかと思ったら、8割くらいが日本人以外の団体でした
。人数が多く、ビュッフェがもっと混雑するかと思いましたが、皆さん秩序を守っていて、混乱なく食事をとることができました。味は、まあ普通ですが、ビュッフェなのでボリューム満点で、ドリンクも2杯ついてくるのでお得感はあります。
ショーは、フラだけだと飽きてしまう人、プレスリー、マイケルジャクソンのファンの人にお勧めです。プレスリーとマイケルジャクソンは物真似の域を出ないですが、舞台が豪華で音響もよく、定番のヒット曲を披露するので、楽しめると思います。フラも、VIP席でしたので迫力がありました。写真をご覧ください。フラッシュなしなら、自由に撮影できます。（ビデオ、録音は不可）
以下、注意点です。受付の人は、日本語大丈夫ですが、食事会場に入った後は英語です。食事は屋外、ショは屋内で冷房が効いていますから、上着持参が望ましいです。ショーの終了は9時過ぎですので、帰りは、トロリーはなく、徒歩、タクシー、使える人はThe　BUSになります。ホテルが近い人は問題ありませんが。
全体に、快適に過ごせる夜のイベントです。

We were the only Japanese participants, but after the overall explanation in English, they provided individual explanations in clear English, which made it very considerate and easy for us to participate.

参加者の中で日本人は私達だけでしたが、全体で英語で説明した後に個別にわかりやすい英語で説明してもらえたり、とても気にかけてくれて参加しやすかったです。

Before returning on the round trip, we encountered a pod of wild dolphins. The sailing boat was spacious, and the staff were friendly, which made for a great experience. As we headed out to the open sea from around Diamond Head, the waves became higher, so those who are prone to seasickness might feel unwell. The view from the sailing boat is absolutely stunning.

往復の帰り着く前に野生イルカの群れに遭遇しました。
セーリングボートも広く、スタッフの方も親切でとても良いです。
ダイヤモンドヘッド辺りから外洋に出て波が高くなりますので船酔い
しやすい方は酔うかもしれません。
セーリングボートから見える景色は最高です。

It's a bit disappointing that the location has changed to the rooftop parking lot; it used to be in the courtyard. As a result, the space feels smaller, and the scale of the show seems reduced. The fire dance has also become smaller. Perhaps it's due to the high cost of living.

場所が駐車場の屋上になったことが、少し残念。以前は中庭でした。
その分スペースが小さくなり、ショーの規模も小さい気がします。
　ファイヤーダンスも規模が小さくなってしまった。
　料理もかな
　物価高だから仕方ないのかもしれません

Lunch was delicious on top of a wonderful day at the park.

I wanted to have a meal separately, so I chose a course that only allowed me to experience the show. When it was time, we were allowed into the theater, but it seemed that the middle area was reserved for those with meals, so guests who only attended the show were guided to the seats on the sides. The show was quite good overall. The kids didn't react much since they aren't very familiar with Elvis or Michael, but they seemed to enjoy the fire show. It might have been better if there had been a bit more acrobatics. There were perhaps too many songs, which made it slightly boring... As for Michael, he was a bit chubby and I wouldn't say his dancing was great. Of course, the real Michael is incredible, so it's understandable that he can't be imitated, but the overall quality was solid and it was enjoyable as entertainment. However, what we had imagined was enjoying music outdoors while feeling the sea breeze, so it was a bit of a surprise to be completely inside the theater in a sealed space. I thought maybe a show at a hotel would have been better. Well, I was glad to see the authentic Hawaiian hula dance, so next time I would like to book a package that includes a meal and some activities.

食事は別でしたかったので、ショーだけを体験できるコースを選びました。
時間になるとシアターに入れますが、どうやら真ん中のエリアは食事付きの人の分みたいでショーだけのお客は左右のシートに案内されます。
ショーは普通に良かったです。子供たちはエルビスもマイケルもあまり知らないから反応は薄かったですが、ファイヤーショーなんかは楽しめたみたい。
もう少しアクロバットな感じがあったら良かったかもしれませんね。
歌が多すぎて若干退屈だったかも…
マイケルもね。。太っちょマイケルで、お世辞にもダンスが上手とは言えない感じで。本物がスゴすぎるのでマネをすることはできないんでしょうけどねもちろん全体の完成度はしっかりしておりエンターテインメントとして楽しめました。
ただ、私たちが想像していたのは屋外で海の風を感じながら流れる音楽を楽しんで…というものだったので、シアターの中に完全に入って密封空間になったのはちょっと誤算でした。
それならホテルなんかでやってるショーでもよかったかなとちょっと思ったり。。
まぁでも本番ハワイのフラダンスは観られたので良かったです次は食事付きで、ちょっとしたアクティビティもついてる方を申し込んでみたいと思います。

It was a very powerful performance. In Hawaii, hula shows are held everywhere, but I don't think there are many fire dances using torches. It was a memorable show.

とても迫力ある演出でした。ハワイではそこかしこでフラショーが行われていますが、トーチを使ったファイアーダンスはあまり無いと思います。印象に残るショーでした。

The expensive seats are of course close to the stage, but I thought it was a good deal to be guided to the front rows if you line up early in the regular seats. The area is flat without any steps, and you watch the show while eating at a U-shaped buffet. There were six dancers and one host, which felt like a larger group than I expected. Both types of seats had the same buffet options. It seemed like the people in the expensive seats took their food first, followed by those in the regular seats. One fun service was that they offered to draw tattoos on your arm with a magic pen if you wanted!

価格が高い席はステージから近いのはもちろんだけど、普通席で列に早く並んで前の方の席に案内されたらお得だと思いました。段差がある訳でもなく平坦なところでU字でビュッフェを食べながらショーを見ます。ダンサーさんは6人で司会1人でそれを思ったより大勢でみる感じでした。ビュッフェはどちらの席も同じものを食べます。高い席の人から取っていき、普通席の人が取っていくという感じでした。楽しかったのは腕にマジックペンでタトゥーを書いてくれるサービスが希望すればあったことです！
