The food was delicious, but the variety of drinks was limited. My child seemed dissatisfied as they could only drink the same beverage. The cake was tasty at first, but after eating a lot, it caused some heartburn. I recommend it for those who can communicate in English, but it might be better to avoid it for those who don't understand English. The sunset over the ocean was beautiful. The atmosphere was fantastic!

There is no Japanese guide, but the staff did their best to explain in Japanese. When you see the whales, you completely forget about the language barrier. It was a wonderful experience.

This dinner cruise was awesome! The crew were most helpful and friendly, the food was delicious, the guide was beautiful and very informative, the boat has little tables for your plate and cup holders for your drinks which is all most convenient, and Captain Rick made it super fun. We recommend it to everyone who asks us what to do in Hawaii. Thank you all for the great night. See you next year!

Thank you for the best hour. When I received the contact for the helicopter arrangement the day before, I was pedaling hard on my bike to get to Ocean Entry and didn't notice it. I confirmed via email and was able to secure a reservation for the much-anticipated doorless helicopter. On the day, the explanation was in English by a foreign pilot, and even though I didn't understand everything, I was able to see the flow of lava, the road I biked yesterday, and the sky above Ocean Entry. It was my first time riding in a helicopter, and I thought that riding in a doorless helicopter right next to me might not happen again unless I come back here. I appreciate this valuable experience. Please let me consult with you when planning my next options. Thank you.
最高の1時間ありがとうございました。
前日にヘリの手配で連絡が来た時はオーシャンエントリーへ行くため一生懸命自転車をこいでいて気づきませんでした。メールにて確認も取れ念願のドアなしヘリでの予約も取れました。当日は外人パイロットでの英語説明でしたがわからないなりに聞き溶岩の流れ・昨日自転車をこいだ道・オーシャンエントリーの空の上から見る事ができました。ヘリに乗るのも初めてでしたが、すぐ横にあるドアのないヘリに乗るのも今後ここに来るほかは無いかと思いました。貴重な体験感謝です。次回オプションを計画する時には相談させてください。ありがとうございました。

We went to the Legends of Hawaii Luau at the Hilton Waikoloa Village on the big island of Hawaii on February 21st, 2017, and we had a great time.
We were not part of a tour, nor were we staying at the Hilton, so we went with Ali'i VIP seating that included valet parking, table side desserts/appetizer/drinks, faster access to the food, and closer seating over the normal tickets. I think it was worth the extra $30 for the VIP seating.
We were right in the front row, and had excellent seats. The show itself was great. In particular, we loved the fire dancers.
Before the show, we could see part of the sunset in the sky with the palm trees.
The only negative was before the show. Both me and my wife can only stand for a limited amount of time. After you check in and get the picture taken, it was something like a 1/2 hour wait until the doors opened. In the queue after the check-in, there was no seating. There was some (but not much) seating before the check-in.

We come to this Luau every year! We have a timeshare so this year was our 7th time to the big island and the 4th time to this show. We tried shows in other places but came back to this one because the food is the best, the setting is right on the water, and the show is most entertaining. Everyone makes it fun from the host who takes tickets and encourages a lei purchase, the photographer, the announcer for the show, the musicians, the artists who go through many costume changes and the wait staff. We recommend this show to anyone who asks. Thank you all for your committed and talented time. See you next year!

The event started at 17:30, but I lined up for the general seating from 17:00 and was able to be shown to a seat quite far forward. The children's buffet was ready to eat right away, so I had my child go get some, and I enjoyed it as a snack. The main buffet was delicious as well. I got a bit sleepy during the middle of the show, but the fire performances were impressive.

Fun filled 3 hour cruise. Great food, music, and tour. The crew were all exceptional. Within 3 minutes of leaving the dock the crew had already located 2 whales we could watch. Right before dinner, they located a manta ray as well. The crew also found another whale on the ride home. Great time and very family friendly.

I was able to catch a glimpse of it three times from a distance. However, it was too far away to capture in a photo, and it was just for a moment. Still, I enjoyed the cruise. The staff couldn't speak any Japanese, but they were very friendly. Later, during the dolphin watching in Oahu, I was lucky enough to see whales up close several times, which was great.

I have experienced various luau shows, but this one felt a bit lacking. The structure was stretched out, with a lot of band performances in between the hula. The meal was a 60 out of 100. I left early, so perhaps it got more exciting in the second half.

We've been on multiple whale tours over the years. We saw multiple whales but the boat was crowded and pretty dated. The microphone didn't work for the first 30 minutes and they never used the hydrophone after mentioning that they had one. Definitely not the "spacious deck with ample seating for all passengers and first class amenities" as advertised. The Kawaihae Harbor location is setup weird. After arriving and checking in we had to board a bus for a 5 minute ride to the boat. Every cruise in the past allowed us to park and then walk on without a shuttle bus. The crew was friendly.

So I decided to propose on this particular cruise, and I couldn't have picked a more romantic, thoughtful, and special cruise to do it. I was so incredibly nervous, but the customer service rep was extremely communicative and responsive for my specific request. John, the captain of the vessel, was so knowledgable in the marine life, that my fiance and I asked if he had majored in Marine Biology in college. He had a lot of passion for the marine life and he spent a lot of time speaking with us. Also, the wait staff was beyond courteous, they took pictures of my engagement, and they made us feel so special with their champagne toast.
I also set-up an original song to sing for my fiance, and the musician onboard actually learned my song before-hand, and played it perfectly as I sang it in front of 40 strangers! His tunes really bring that cool, Hawaiian vibe, and the MC was great with her meticulous tour and crowd work. I couldn't have asked for a better sunset, a perfect location, and the greatest staff that I have probably ever encountered. That's saying a lot as I had been a musician on several international five-star cruise lines in the past. I would HIGHLY recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a special event with incredible food.
