Dolphin Quest Hawaii - Dolphin Swim & Encounter at Hilton Waikoloa Village

So much Fun!

Reviewed by: Waikoloa2026

Three of my kids participated in the swimming with the dolphins and LOVED IT! One even said it was the best day of her life! It was very informative and Patrick had a really great personality and interacted with well with all the participants in the group. I highly recommend going to Dolphin Quest at the Hilton Waikoloa!

You need to do something about large groups that get very drunk, are disrespectful towards the event and its participants. Loved the show but it was a distraction and didn’t allow us to enjoy the whole show experience.

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー  レジェンズ・オブ・ハワイ(ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジ)<日・火・金催行/ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題>

It's very beautiful and impressive! とても美しくて、迫力あります!

Reviewed by: Y.K

The hula dance was very beautiful and relaxed, which eased my mind. The flowing dresses that matched the movements and the graceful fingertips were elegant. The Tahitian dance was powerful and impressive. I really enjoyed the Hawaiian atmosphere. I'm glad I came to see it.

Dancing myself was fun, even though it was just for a short time during the meal. Many people left during the cool time when they took a break for dinner, but since the dance continued until 8 PM, I was happy to see it until the end.

If you're staying at the Hilton Waikoloa Village Hotel, I recommend going to see it.

フラダンスはとても美しくゆったりとしていて心が和らぎました。動きに合わせて流れるようなドレスも、滑らかな指先も優美でした。タヒチアンダンスは迫力があって圧巻でした。ハワイ気分を満喫できました。見に来てよかったです。
自分でダンスをするのは、食事の席で短い時間でしたが楽しかったです。
途中で食事時間を取るクールタイムに帰ってしまう人が大勢いましたが、20時までダンスはあるので最後まで見れて良かったです。
ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジホテルに泊まるなら、見に行く事をお勧めします。

Dolphin Quest Hawaii - Dolphin Swim & Encounter at Hilton Waikoloa Village

Once in a lifetime!

Reviewed by: Gina & Denise

How often can you get a kiss from a dolphin!? For me, this is once in a lifetime experience.. at least until I I come back and do it again!! The dolphins were great to interact with, our dolphin handler really ensured we all had time to interact with the dolphins. And Jennifer made sure that we understood how to appropriately interact with them. Always wonderful when animal handlers ensure the welfare and safety of the animal is a priority.

We had a wonderful time watching an impressive Hawaiian show. As the night got cooler, it might be a good idea to have a cardigan or something to wear during the winter.

圧巻のハワイアンショーを見ながら素敵なひと時を過ごしました。夜になるにつれて肌寒かなったので、冬はカーディガンなど羽織があると良いかもです。

Oceanfront Royal Kona Resort Luau Voyagers of the Pacific Show - Dinner, Drinks & Fire Knife Dance

Great show at smaller venue

Reviewed by: Dad of 5

The food and show were both great. It seemed like a smaller venue than one we went to on Maui a few years ago, which was nice because there was less wait to get food and every seat had a great view of the show. Great for the kids, it wrapped up around 7:30pm. Fire dance was pretty cool as well.

Reviewed by: Experience of a lifetime

What a wonderful experience to get close to dolphins! My daughter (11) loved it so much. She got to swim with the dolphins and work with the trainer to give commands to the dolphins. It was so exciting to see all the amazing knowledge these beautiful creatures have. The trainers provide so much information as to the care and conservation of dolphins.

Loved this tour - our tour guide was very accommodating and knowledgeable and we saw some beautiful spots of the island. Definitely recommend this trip as you get to see a lot in one day.
