The atmosphere was really nice under the beautiful moon. Both the show and dinner were excellent! It was a wonderful experience on the Big Island of Hawaii!
月も綺麗な下で、とにかく雰囲気がとても良かったです。
ショーもディナーも、最高でした!
ハワイ島での素敵な体験になりました!
駐車場がいっぱいだったので、早めに行った方がいいかもしれません。

The buffet had a wide variety of food and drinks, and I definitely overate. The Hawaiian songs and dances were also enjoyable. The sunset view in the background was lovely.
バイキングの料理も、飲み物も豊富で、食べ過ぎました。ハワイアンの歌や、踊りも楽しかったです。
背景の夕焼けの景色もステキでした。
The piña colada, a cocktail made with coconut milk and pineapple juice, was very delicious. I definitely recommend it.
ピナコラーダというココナッツミルクとパイナップルジュースのカクテルはとても美味しかったです。
ぜひ、おすすめします。

Our invoice said to check in at 4:15 but when we got there they said check in was 5:15 after checking in we waited another hour to enter and then dinner and the show didn't start until 7 pm! That was almost 4 hours of waiting. The show and dinner was great but the wait time was terrible.

The performers were beyond amazing.
The table service was excellent.
The food was excellent - so delicious!
The price for premium upgrade- disappointing.
The ambiance could have been more authentic rather than long rows of very crowded tables and unbearable heat for the first 90 minutes before sunset.
Closer to the water maybe? Sail shaped tarps for shade maybe?
Definitely recommend.
Dress light. Bring a hand fan.
Expect some rude people to walk up for a better look & block view

The content of the show was excellent! However, the service at the Hilton hotel was disappointing. When I checked in at Hilton's Kingsland, the concierge advised me to arrive early to secure a seat, but when I actually went, I couldn't enter until the scheduled time. Despite having reserved a premium seat, I was made to wait in the general line. There were people who were allowed to enter preferentially, while we were left waiting and then admitted as general attendees. The event was held at a completely different location than what the concierge mentioned. What is the point of having a concierge??? But the show was absolutely fantastic.
ショーの内容は最高でした!
が、現地ヒルトンホテルの対応はいただけない。
ヒルトンのキングスランドにチェックインの際にコンシェルジュに確認したときは早めに行って席を確保したほうがいいといわれたのに実際に行くと時間まで入れずプレミアムシートを予約していたにも関わらず一般の列に並ばされた。
優先的に入っていく人たちもいたのに我々は待たされた挙句一般で入場。
コンシェルジュの言ってた全く違う場所での開催でした。なんのためのコンシェルジュ???
でも、ショーは最高によかったです。
It's better to clearly communicate the details of the ticket.

Some comments mentioned that the food was not great, but all four of us were very satisfied. It's a buffet style where you can pick what you like, and since we had premium seats, we were able to get our food early while it was still available. The staff at our table frequently came to take drink orders. The show was enjoyable from start to finish. There were luaus, hula performances, and Hawaiian songs, allowing us to fully experience Hawaii. Although the exchange rate is poor right now, making it feel expensive, it was still a great way to create family memories.
食事が今一つというコメントもありましたが、我々4人は全員大満足してました。ブッフェスタイルで好きなものを取りにいきますが、プレミアムシートだったので、早めに空いている中で取りにいけました。飲み物はテーブル担当スタッフがこまめにオーダーを取りにきてくれます。ショーは、初めから最後まで楽しむことができます。ルアウもあればフラやハワイアンソングもあり、ハワイをたっぷり感じることができます。今は為替レートが悪いので高額に思いましたが、それでも、家族旅行の思い出作りにはよかったです。

Pros: pig roast being done onsite, got to witness uncovering and presentation of the pig. (my son hated this portion!). menu and performances were both great! I liked different island nations being represented in music and dance and a little bit of story telling/history to tie it together. performance was good length and sunset was gorgeous! desserts and beverages were also delicious.
Cons: attempted to check in entire luau at one time slot. made for a lot of time waisted waiting in hotel lobby check in line. check in inside and then second check in outside felt redundant. we arrived at 5:22, email confirmation had suggested 5:30 check in, but spent several (20+ minutes) waiting to check in. by the time we arrived in luau area, we missed the 'activities' portion of the luau. we also missed the royal entrance of the luau show. we did however have great seats so first-come-first-seated wasn't an issue.
brief meet and greet with performers after the show felt rushed -- they were spread along exit sidewalk and available for a quick picture but were ushering us along immediately, without any chit chat -- which is a huge difference compared to other luaus.
professional photography of your party was an additional $25 for digital download. fresh lei's were an additional $10 each, which in my opinion were reasonably priced but I've had digital photography and leis included at other similarly-priced luaus.
having dined at this marriott the night before and spoken to several guests in the week it seems this particular marriott has become quite overpriced for the level of service and age of property it's become. it has an outstanding location, but is overpriced for the level of service or hospitality i've experienced at other similarly priced marriotts in the islands. pool and restaurants were crowded and bonvoy perks were lacking/zero. kids meals were reasonable, but got charged $10 each for kids scoop of vanilla icecream.
go earlier than confirmation email suggests if pre-show activities or royal entrance are important.

Of course you can’t predict rain in Hawaii but you can have spots to seek cover. The event did pass out rain plastic but only once at the beginning and we did not get any.
Once the rain passed there was no attempt to wipe chairs so even if the rain stopped you were still soaked.
The hurried the show to see a quick fire dancer set but that was not that good.
Even without the rain you couldn’t see. The tables in rows made it difficult. The food was ok. The drinks didn’t not taste like any alcohol was in them just super sweet drinks. Overall I was not happy with the event.
Look for a smaller venue.

I highly recommend this luau. I was very satisfied with the delicious food and entertainment.
The process starts with checking in at the hotel, after which you are guided to outdoor party tables. Before the show begins, there is a drink bar and interactive activities. You can enjoy free games, a dance experience, and watch the digging up of kalua pig, which is cooked in an underground oven called an imu. Everyone was taking lots of videos and photos! Please note that this activity ends fairly early.
The buffet meal is followed by the grand entrance of King Kamehameha from the sea, and the show starts on stage! There are plenty of dances and songs inspired by Tahiti and Samoa, the ancestors of Hawaiians. The final fire dance was breathtaking. The emcee speaks entirely in English, but I think you can enjoy it fully even if you don't catch everything.
To be honest, I hesitated about whether to participate due to the price, but I ended up being very satisfied.
◆ One point to note is to arrive early for check-in. Check-in starts at 5:15 PM, but when we arrived at 4:45 PM, there were already about ten groups in line. Seating is assigned in the order of check-in, and you proceed to the activities from there, so if you check in late, it might be difficult to participate in the activities.
こちらのルアウはとてもお勧めです。
美味しい食事とエンターテイメントを楽しめてとても満足しました。
流れとしてはホテル館内で受付後、野外のパーティテーブルに案内されます。
ショーが始まる前にドリンクバーと参加型のアクティビティがありました。無料のゲーム、ダンス体験やイムという地中の釜で料理したカルアピッグ(豚の丸焼き)を掘り出す様子を見られます。皆さんビデオや写真をたくさん撮っていました!
このアクティビティははやい時間で終わってしまいますので注意が必要です。
ブッフェのお食事、海からのカメハメハ王の登場に続いてステージでショーがスタート!
ハワイアンの祖先であるタヒチやサモア風のダンスや歌が盛りだくさん。最後のファイアーダンスは圧巻でした。
司会はすべて英語ですが、すべてを聞き取れなくても充分に楽しめる内容だと思います。
正直なところ、お値段的に参加するかどうか迷いましたが結果は大満足です。
◆注意点は早めに受付に行くことかと思います。
受付スタートは17:15-ですが、私たちが16:45に行った時にはすでに10組ほどが並んでいました。席は受付順で案内され、その流れでアクティビティに進むので、受付が遅くなるとアクティビティ参加がむずかしくなるかもしれません。
I didn't feel much of a language barrier. Enjoy the unique luau that Hawaii has to offer!
言葉の壁はそれほど感じませんでした。

Was it because of the rain that the stage was moved from outdoors to indoors? I was looking forward to the fire dance, but it was canceled, and the show ended about an hour earlier than scheduled, which was disappointing. The food was also limited in variety and not as good compared to other luau shows.
雨降りで、ステージが屋外から屋内に移動になった為なのでしょうか?
楽しみにしていたファイヤーダンスもなく、予定時間の1時間ほど早く終了になり、ガッカリです。
食事も、他のルアウショーと比べると種類も少なく味も良くなかったです。
I recommend a luau show at another hotel.
別のホテルのルアウショーをお勧めします。

The location is a 15-minute walk from Ocean Tower, and it takes about 15 minutes by tram as well. Check-in for general seating is on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 16:45, so we lined up at 16:00 and were the first ones there. Premium seats are prioritized in the front, while general seating is in the back blocks. The show runs roughly until 20:30, and at the end, everyone can take photos. The meat at the buffet was delicious. Additionally, the American couple at the neighboring table kindly struck up a conversation with us, which made for a very enjoyable experience.
場所はオーシャンタワーから徒歩15分、トラムに乗車でも15分くらいかかります。先着順16:45チェックイン(一般席)との事で、16:00に並んで1番乗りでした。席はプレミアムシートは優先的に前側、一般席はそれよりも後ろのブロックになります。ざっくり20:30までショーがあり、最後には写真撮影も各自出来ます。ビュッフェの肉が美味しかったです。また、私たちはとなりの席のアメリカのご夫婦が優しく話しかけてくれ、とても楽しい気分でした。

So from other reviews you know the lines are long, especially in the heat. Now they have water fountains, and it does move semi quickly. But it would make sense to have the vip's seated 1st, then the GA seats enter by sections.
This would help with standing in the sun for to long.
The show it self was fantastic! Very entertaining, and kept you wanting more.
My only gripe, is that I am diabetic, and needed to eat sooner than later, and since I was the last table to be sat, we were the last table to be approved to get up to the Buffet. Also there was no sugar free desserts. Other than that the foods I was able to eat was delicious and flavorful. But I did end up in the restroom for most of the evening once returned back to the room. Could have been that some foods were in the temp danger zone for to long.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I couldn't travel to Hawaii in 2020 and 2021, but I resumed my trips to Oahu in 2022 and 2023, and this time, it was my first trip to the Big Island in five years. As usual, I stayed at the Hilton resort in the Waikoloa area, but I felt that I couldn't truly experience the Big Island without seeing the traditional luau and hula Hawaiian show, which I also hadn't seen in five years. On the day of the event, it started drizzling, and as we transitioned from the first traditional hula show to dinner, the staff quickly distributed vinyl raincoats. By the time the Polynesian dancers' torch-lit group dance reached its peak, the rain had turned into a light mist, and most of the audience removed their raincoats. With the host's lively lead, the audience became one with the show and was filled with excitement. However, perhaps due to the rainy weather from the start, the program was moved up, and the audience participation hula was skipped, which was a bit disappointing.
コロナ禍で2020、2021年はハワイに行けなかったが、2022、2023年とオアフ島(ホノルル)で旅行を再開して、今回、5年ぶりのハワイ島旅行となった。いつもの様にワイコロア地区のヒルトンのリゾートに滞在したが、やはり伝統のルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショーを見ないとハワイ島に来た感じがしないと思い、これも5年ぶりの観覧となった。当日はスタートから小雨模様で、最初の伝統フラのショーから食事に切り替わる頃に、スタッフが手早くビニルのレインコートを配ってまわり、ポリネシアンダンサーのトーチを使った集団ダンスが佳境に入る頃には雨も細かい霧雨に変わり、観客の殆どがレインコートを脱ぎ去り、司会者の軽妙なリードで会場が一体となってショーに熱狂した。今回、スタートから雨模様のためか、プログラムの進行が全て前倒しで進められ、観客参加のフラがスキップされたりしたのが少々、残念であった。
