All Reviews for Waikiki Beach, Oahu

We really enjoyed this laid back and super fun evening. Right after we set sail we saw an enormous sea turtle and several surfers who were fun to watch. Then we enjoyed a couple cocktails made by the crew which were great! Something for everyone including mock tails. We left the kids with family while we’re gone for just over 2 hrs, but school aged and pre-teens would probably really enjoy it as well. (The teens on-board all seemed thoroughly bored lol). We started heading back and a few minutes before sunset we stopped to watch the spectacular colors and views. That alone was completely worth it- it was so beautiful. Highly recommend and completely worth it!

I only reserved tickets for the show. The seats were not too far away, so there was no problem at all. Since the venue isn't that large, I think seats in the back would be fine as well. As expected in America, the venue was cold. I'm glad I brought a cardigan and socks.
The content felt like singing and dancing by stars from old America. I don't think younger people in Japan would understand it, but I think those in their 50s and 60s would really enjoy it! At the end of the show, you can take photos with the cast. No tips were required!

ショーのチケットのみ予約しました。席的には遠すぎず全く問題ない範囲でした。そこまで会場も広くないので後ろの方の席でも問題ないかと思います。会場はさすがアメリカ、、寒いです。カーディガンと靴下を持参していってよかったです。
内容は昔のアメリカのスター？の人たちの歌を歌ったりダンスしたりって感じです。日本の若い人には分からないと思うので50.60歳代の人なら盛り上がれるのではないでしょうか！
ショーの最後にはキャストと写真を撮れたりもします。ノーチップでした！

Great crew! Great snorkeling experience! We would recommend for anyone to do. It was my first time the crew was very helpful and made me feel very comfortable.

The staff was super friendly and we had a fun time. We were able to see a turtle and lots of fish. They supplied snorkel gear and drinks/soda. Just remember to bring a towel because it can get chilly. Location was easy to access as they are on the beachside of dukes Waikiki. Definitely recommend Manu Kai..

I'm satisfied. There are various things like only being able to go for food once, seating being strictly first-come, first-served, and long waits for taking photos, but if your budget allows, it's definitely worth it.

満足です。料理が一回しか取りに行けないとか、席が厳密には早いもん勝ちなので並ぶとか、写真撮影が長いとか色々あるものの、お金さえ許せば鉄板です

I think this is an activity unique to Hawaii. It's a bit expensive, but I'm very satisfied with the experience. It's interesting to take a boat to the submarine station and switch there. While waiting to board, you can enjoy the beach in front of the Hilton.

多分ハワイならではのアクティビティと思います。じゃっかん高いですが、内容的には大満足。船で潜水艦乗り場まで行って乗り換えるのもおもしろい。乗るのに待つ間にヒルトン前のビーチで遊べます。

Loved this tour, the boat was easy to find, and its nice that its close to the hotels and quick, as we did not want a full day on a boat!

We loved our sunset sail. The staff was knowledgeable and fun. They took the time to answer any questions. They always had our safety in mind. I would highly recommend this tour.

I had great time. Staff was real friendly and fun! I would definitely recommend this place.

The captain's notes were excellent. I laughed a lot. The conversations with the other passengers were friendly and enjoyable, and I felt relaxed. I will definitely ride again on my next visit to Hawaii.

船長の注意事項が最高です。笑いまくりです。同乗の他のお客さんとの会話もフレンドリーで楽しく、くつろげました。次回のハワイ訪問でも、また乗ります。

Our driver was amazing. So kind and friendly. The hike was beautiful. Definitely worth doing if you are in the area. I would do it again.

The show where you can feel the hula dance, music, and traditions of Hawaii is perfect for spending an evening during your stay. The dancers' smiles and performances are truly wonderful, and just watching them brings a sense of mindfulness.

Moreover, the performances not only feature Hawaiian music but also pay tribute to historical artists, creating an exhilarating atmosphere. There’s a chance that songs with personal significance will be played, which adds an emotional touch. The venue was quite full, and experiencing the different energy of the audience compared to Japan made it even more enjoyable.

The show ended in the blink of an eye! Although it was just the show plan, I was extremely satisfied!

ハワイのフラダンス、音楽、伝統を感じられるショーは滞在中の一夜を費やすのに最適です。ダンサーさんみんな笑顔でのパフォーマンスは本当に素敵で、見ているだけでマインドフルネス。

それに、ハワイミュージックのみならず、歴史的アーティストを真似たパフォーマンスは盛り上がりも絶頂に。思い入れのある曲が出てくる可能性もあり、今度はジンときます。
会場の席はかなり埋まっていて、日本とは違うオーディエンスのテンションを味わえるのも楽しさが増しました。

あっという間に終演でした！ショーのみのプランでしたが、大満足でした！

The show was very entertaining, all of the singers and dancers are outstanding. The food was delicious, and a lot of options to choose from. Seating was comfortable and we didn’t get wet from the rain because we were covered. All in all it was a great experience for us.

I participated in a limited-time monitor plan where the second person is free, and I only watched the show. The shows featuring Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson were incredibly lively, with impersonators that looked just like them. There were also continuous videos of the real Elvis and Michael playing in the background while the impersonators sang and danced.

Since it’s open seating, I recommend arriving about 15 minutes early to get good seats towards the front. I was seated on the aisle in the front, and during the show, Elvis came over and shook my hand!

In addition to the two shows, there were hula performances, singing, dancing, and fire dancing, all of which were impressive, especially the dancing. While hula shows can be found all over Waikiki, a show that mixes in a rock vibe with a distinctly American feel is quite rare, so I recommend it for that reason. There were overwhelmingly more international guests than Japanese, which made the atmosphere even more exciting.

I arrived early and also checked out the dining plan, and I was able to see the hula dancing up close, and the food looked quite delicious. I thought it might be nice to participate in the dining plan next time.

Finally, while passing through the hallway where the performers were, we could take photos freely, and there were staff members available to take pictures for us. My husband and I got a photo with Michael, which made for a great memory!

二人目無料の人数限定モニターで、ショーのみを見るプランに参加しました。
エルビス・プレスリーと、マイケルジャクソンのショーは、本人そっくりのものまねで、すごく盛り上がりました。エルビスとマイケルの本人たちの映像もずっと流れていて、それを見ながらのそっくりさんの歌やダンスでした。
自由席なので、オープンの15分前くらいの早めに行って、前の方の良い席を取るのがおすすめです。通路側の前の方の座席だったので、ショーの途中でエルビスが握手をしてくれました！
二人のショー以外も、フラや歌、ダンス、ファイヤーダンスに見応えがあり、特にダンスが素晴らしいです。フラのショーはワイキキのあちこちでやっていますが、THE・アメリカ！っていう感じのロックも混ざったショーはなかなかないので、そういう意味でもおすすめです。日本人より、圧倒的に海外の方のほうが多いので、盛り上がりが半端なかった。
早めに行って、食事付きのプランの食事の様子も見てみたのですが、フラの踊りも近くで見ることができて、食事もなかなか美味しそうでした。次回は食事付きに参加しても良いかも、と思いました。
最後に出演者がいる廊下を通りながら、自由に写真を取ることができ、写真を取ってくれるスタップもしっかりいるので、主人と二人でマイケルを囲んで撮ってもらい、よい記念になりました！

We were with children, but we enjoyed ourselves without any seasickness! The captain was kind to the kids, which made us feel safe and allowed us to have a great time.

子ども連れでしたが船酔いなどすることもなく楽しめました！
キャプテンが子どもにも優しく接してくれて、安心して楽しみました

We had a wonderful time and the food was yummy! We had a blast and this cruise is totally appropriate for kids and family’s. The staff was amazing and super friendly!!!

We had an amazing time on our trip. The whole crew was very professional, yet loose and fun loving making it a real intimate outing. We had another couple with us who had never been on a catamaran before and they said they will definitely do this again. Drinks were flowing the minute we stepped on board!! Oh, and the selection of music put it over the top!!!

Amazing!!!! Great tour, including seeing multiple whale contacts.
Weather and boat were awesome, and the crew were amazing, being informative and making sure all the guests were happy and involved.
This was our second year of touring with this catamaran and even though I do not really like the water, it was fun, relaxing, and thrilling all at the same time.

This is my second time with this outfit. The crew is great, and kind. We had a blast. they are all super chill and fun. It's not a loud party boat with maI tais. Great time. I had a blast on the trampoline in front, laughing the entire time!!!!

I had a great time challenging myself with my grandchild and another person. I asked for the departure location, but I was given directions to an unrelated area. When the time came, I returned to the reception to ask again, and to my surprise, it was right next door. I was told to go to the Atlantis boarding area, and the guidance was unacceptable.

孫と３人で挑戦でとても楽しかったです。
出発の場所を聞いたのに関係ない方角を教えられ、時間が来てしまったので受付まで戻り聞くとびっくりです。隣でした。アトランティス乗り場をおしえられ、案内が悪かったのはありえませんでした。

After making a reservation through VELTRA, I received an SMS with information in English about the meeting place and consent form. It might be a bit challenging if you don't understand English.

On the day of the trip, the weather was cloudy and it was quite windy, which caused the boat to sway a lot, and I felt seasick the entire time. Although drinks were unlimited, I didn't feel like drinking alcohol in such rough conditions, so it was hard to get my money's worth.

Because of the clouds, I couldn't see much of the sunset either. Overall, it turned out to be a bit of a disappointing trip.

VELTRA経由で予約した後にSMSで英語の集合場所や同意書に関する案内が来ました。英語がわからないとややハードルが高いかもしれません。

乗った日の天候は曇りかつ風が強かったためか、船がものすごく揺れまして、始終船酔いでした。ドリンクは飲み放題ですが、この揺れの中でお酒をガンガン飲む気分にはなれず、元を取るのは難しいと思われます。

曇りのためあまり夕日も見れず。
ちょっとがっかりな旅になりました。

This time, I participated in a limited-capacity monitor show without meals, along with my girlfriend on her first overseas trip. I initially thought there would be many Japanese tourists, but over 80% of the audience was foreign, and the energy was very much in line with international standards, which made it interesting and enjoyable.

The show started with dances and music that touched on Hawaii's history and culture. In the middle, Elvis and Michael joined in, and the show heated up to its peak. As a fan of Elvis and Michael, I certainly enjoyed it, but my girlfriend, who isn't very familiar with Western music, was also thoroughly satisfied and had a great time.

The production and music were wonderful, and overall, it was a very captivating show. Furthermore, the expressions and gestures of the performers conveyed their pride in and love for their culture. It was a valuable experience to understand Hawaii's culture and history and to connect with the charm of the land.

I highly recommend this fantastic show to everyone. Next time, I would like to make a reservation that includes a meal! You will have an amazing night, so definitely consider participating! Mahalo!

今回は食事無しの人数限定のモニターショー初海外旅行の彼女と2人で参加しました。
日本人観光客が多いのかなとの印象でしたが8割以上が外国人の方で盛り上がり方も海外仕様でその点も面白く参加できて良かった。

ショーの内容は前半はハワイの歴史や文化に触れる踊りや音楽からスタート。
中盤からはエルヴィスやマイケルが参加しショーはヒートアップし盛り上がりが最絶頂でした。
私はエルヴィス・マイケルのファンでもちろん楽しむこともできましたが、
洋楽をあまり知らない彼女も十分満足し楽しんでました。

演出や音楽も素晴らしく、全体として非常に魅力的なショーでした。さらに、出演者たちの表情や仕草から、彼らがその文化に誇りを持ち、心から愛していることが伝わってきました。ハワイの文化や歴史を理解することができ、その土地の魅力に触れることができた貴重な体験でした。
全ての方におすすめできる、素晴らしいショーでした。

次回は食事ありで予約してみたいと思います！
最高の一夜を過ごせるのでぜひ参加してみてください！
マハロ！

My husband and my two boys and I went on a sunset cruise and had a fantastic time. We got to drink our own drinks so we didn’t have the watered down stuff. They usually serve on these types of cruises. The crew was incredibly friendly. We saw a beautiful sunset and multiple rainbows.

Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our trip. There were three groups on board, including us, and as we headed offshore, it seemed that we accidentally dropped the parachute into the sea while trying to spread it out, causing a bit of a scramble to retrieve and re-spread it.

We were the first group, but because of the drop, seawater dripped down the parachute lines after we ascended, making our eyes and faces hurt.

Also, for some reason, we were facing away from Waikiki Beach instead of towards it during the flight, so we couldn't enjoy the scenery much.

The other two groups didn’t get as wet and were able to enjoy the view towards the beach, which made us envious.

Additionally, I found that I wasn't as comfortable on the boat as I had expected, so overall, I didn't enjoy it very much. My husband seemed to enjoy the boat ride, though.

当日はあいにく曇天でした。自分たち含め3組で乗船し、沖合に向かっていき、パラシュートを広げる時に誤って？海に落としてしまったようで慌てて回収して広げなおしていました。
私たちは1組目だったのですが、海に落としてしまったせいで上昇してからパラシュートの紐づたいに海水がしたたり落ちてきて目や顔が痛かったです。

また、飛んでいる間、なぜかワイキキビーチ向きでなく沖合向きになっていたのでほとんど景色を楽しめませんでした。

そのあとの2組はあまり濡れることもなく、ビーチ側向きで楽しめていたのでうらやましかったです。

また、私は船が思ったより苦手だったので総合的にあまり楽しめませんでした。
旦那さんは船の移動含めて楽しめているようでした。

Amazing experience for us. The crew were incredibly nice and helpful. We saw lots of turtles and was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii.

Mahalo!

I was very satisfied to see many sea turtles and fish. The weather was bad, but the ocean was very beautiful. We also saw dolphins on the boat during our travels.

海カメも魚もたくさん見れて大満足です。天気は悪かったですが海がとても綺麗でした。移動の船ではイルカも見れました。

The first time I saw the fireworks, it was great, but afterwards it was just drifting, so I think it would have been better if it had been shorter. Also, the music was loud like rock, and more relaxing music would have helped me unwind.

最初に花火を見た時は良かったが、その後は漂っているだけだったので、もっと短い時間で良かったと思う
また音楽もロックの様なうるさいもので、もっとゆったりした音楽の方がリラックス出来た

The boat crew were absolutely great! The drinks were on point, and they let us request music. Would book again!

I signed up to experience something I usually wouldn't do in Japan. Unfortunately, the day I participated was cloudy, and we didn't get to see a beautiful sunset, but I had so much fun that I forgot about that. The all-you-can-drink alcohol was like a "Wanko Mai Tai" instead of "Wanko Soba," with Mai Tais being poured one after another. They also give you small bags of snacks, which makes you want to drink more.

There weren't many Japanese participants, but the receptionist, Miko, spoke Japanese. The staff's talk on the boat was in English, so I regretted not understanding the witty jokes. Next time, I want to join the fireworks sailing.

普段日本ではやらないことを体験したくて申し込みました。
生憎参加した日は雲が多く、きれいなサンセットではありませんでしたが、そんなこと忘れるくらい楽しかったです。
飲み放題アルコールは、マイタイが次々注がれる『わんこ蕎麦』ならぬ『わんこマイタイ』状態。スナック菓子の小袋がもらえるのでまたお酒が進みます。

日本人参加者はほとんどいませんが、受付のミコ嬢は日本語OKでした。
船上でのスタッフさんのトークは英語なので、軽妙なジョークが分からなかったのは悔しいなぁ。
次回は花火のセーリングに参加したいです。

It was so much fun!! The sky felt close, I could see the mountains, and right below was the ocean. Participating with my friends made it an unforgettable memory.

とっても楽しかったです！！空が近く、山も見えて、真下は海で、友達と参加できたことが、忘れられない思い出になりました。
