Coach K did an amazing job introducing our daughter to tennis over four lessons. She made…read moreeverything fun, played to our seven year old's strengths and gave her a desire to continue with lessons. Unfortunately our vacation in Honolulu was all too brief, and we are having to continue with lessons on the mainland where they are not nearly as fun, instructive or motivating. Coach K is awesome and we can't wait for our next trip back to the islands for more amazing tennis lessons with the Fun Factory. Thank you!

Oahu Ocean Edventures offers a different kind of Hawaii experience -- an educational one…read more I worked with Don Isaacs, the CEO of the company, to develop a course for my wife who is intimidated by the minute-by-minute unpredictability of the ocean. He was not only receptive, but motivated and appreciative to work with her, as he is concerned by the number of people who live here who lack a sufficient ocean education. This gets to his vision for his company and for the island population -- to educate people on water safety though experiencing the water! This isn't just some tourist surf instructor, you work with highly experienced, highly educated people who are passionate about educating people on how the ocean works, why it does what it does, and how to have fun without compromising safety. I booked my wife for a two-hour course, one hour classroom-type education, and one-hour practical in the water. Don's passion for the topic actually resulted in a three-hour course, equally split between water and 'classroom' work. She loved it. The course met exactly what she was looking for, and delivered with the expertise expected of an experienced professional. We will absolutely use them again for future recreational or educational needs!

I am writing only to review the swim lessons for kids, which are great. We don't belong to the club…read moreand have never used the tennis courts. But the pools are large and slightly heated. It's really difficult to get time slots for the lessons. They will tell you the date when registration opens and you have to be online at midnight in order to get a spot. Fortunately once you are in, you can keep the spot for the following sessions. Lessons are only 15 minutes, which I doubted at first. But turns out that is just the right amount of time for a 6 yo! And when the kids get older, you can book 2 sessions back to back, totaling 30 minutes. Our two boys love their instructor, Conner. He's serious, gets right down to business, and works hard with them to really perfect their strokes. We're very pleased.

I grew up going to this club for swimming lessons and then for tennis lessons. We came here today…read moreto play a tennis match for a league. A lot has changed since I was here as a child. There's a pool near the front that's not just a kiddie pool. There's a ramp and not just stairs at the entrance (good for handicap/stroller accessibility). Unfortunately they closed the snack bar (used to be my favorite place to get gummy snacks after practice). I heard the tennis courts now have a surface that is squishy and unlike regular courts which is not too good. But other than that, it's just as I remember! The parking lot is pretty beat up and today had lots of pooling water in potholes. At least the parking is free!

The regulator I used had scum on the mouthpiece which seems really unsanitary. And his mask kept leaking...he didn't initially believe me which also soured the experience. The issues with my mask flooding caused me a great deal of anxiety. Instead of being empathetic or trying to understand my concerns, Manny kept telling me, "I can't force you to have fun!" I read another review where it was mentioned that Manny seems to be inpatient with "difficult" students, and I would wholeheartedly agree with that statement. The other person who was present shared that he also felt Manny's equipment was subpar. This gentleman didn't even bother coming back for the 2nd dive day. At least Manny refunded me the camera/photos fee after I asked him... although he initially quickly exclaimed he couldn't refund me the whole charge (which I didn't even ask for). I feel like his quickness to defend his fee might be indicative of this not being the first time someone has felt like the whole experience was just an expensive waste of time and hope... I was originally going to give Manny a higher rating but after thinking through it, I didn't feel I should conceal this information from others about to make an investment in diving. I luckily did one dive with the boat captain on the first day, who loaned me her mask and she took me down. I did a full mask clear and swam for nearly 30 minutes. So, I don't think my negative experience can be pinned on me not wanting to have fun, not being capable of diving, etc. Definitely wasn't worth the money diving with this instructor and had I known the experience would have been so negative, I would have much rather paid more to go with a more experienced instructor who isn't so dismissive of safety concerns.

I can't recommend Ivan enough. After just one lesson, I felt significantly more confident in the…read morewater and had a much better understanding of what I needed to work on to progress my surfing. Instead of just pushing me into waves, he focused on technique, positioning, wave selection, and the specific adjustments I needed to make to transition toward riding a shorter board. What impressed me most was how personalized the instruction was. Ivan quickly identified areas where I was struggling and gave clear, practical feedback that immediately improved my surfing. I left the lesson feeling more comfortable, more capable, and with a clear path forward for my progression. If you're serious about improving and eventually downsizing to a shorter board, this surf school is absolutely worth it. The lesson accelerated my learning far more than I could have on my own.
