Kona Sunset Dinner Cruise to Kealakekua Bay with Live Entertainment | Body Glove

Great Time

Reviewed by: KCarson

The sunset dinner cruise my wife and I took lived up to the hype. The food was excellent! The western coast of the Big Island was just beautiful at that time of day. We also got to see a pod of dolphins (I would say at least 20 jumping out of the water) along the way. Can't recommend this activity enough!!!

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

Three and a half hours. たっぷり３時間半

Reviewed by: madai

I stayed at the Courtyard King Kamehameha Hotel. The show takes place at this hotel.

We were supposed to gather at 5:00 PM, but when we arrived, there was a long line in the hallway next to the lobby. I recommend arriving early for check-in, as being late in line can affect your meal time later. If you pay a special fee, you can get seats closer to the front and don’t have to wait as long.

When you line up, they will ask if you want a flower lei or a shell lei. The shell lei is free, while the flower lei comes at a cost. We exchanged shell leis with each other. After that, we exchanged our vouchers for tickets and headed to the venue.

Once we arrived at the venue, soothing Hawaiian music was playing continuously. We waited at our seats until everyone was at their tables. Drinks are self-serve near the entrance. Adults can have beer or mai tais, while children only get red cranberry juice. My 10-year-old child was not allowed to have that. At the same time, there was an introduction to about five traditional games, where you could decorate your face and feet with stamps. Participation in these activities was optional.

Afterward, there was a hula dance lesson, and explanations about traditional dishes, such as meat wrapped in banana leaves and steamed, along with about 30 minutes of free time. Hawaiian music continued to play during this time. About an hour after entering, King Kamehameha finally arrived from the sea.

After that, it was finally time for dinner, but we had to go up to the buffet in order from the front tables. However, we couldn’t go up freely. They called each table, so we had to wait at least 30 minutes after the first table was called. My 10-year-old fell asleep without eating, despite being hungry, as it took a long time for our table to be called.

Desserts, coffee, and tea were available. Just when I thought we could return to our room after finishing our meal, the show finally began. The show featured Hawaiian dances and a fire show, which were quite good, but it took a considerable amount of time to get to the meal and to watch the show. You really need to have a relaxed mindset and plenty of time, or else you might end up feeling exhausted.

The Hawaiian music was very pleasant, and my two sons and husband dozed off, swaying their heads during the crucial part of the show. It ended at 8:30 PM. I think it’s a show more suited for adults. My 10-year-old ultimately didn’t wake up and managed to eat a packed meal of chicken nuggets, fries, white rice, and meat after we returned to the room. It’s a show aimed at older audiences rather than children.

コートヤードキングカメハメハホテルに宿泊してました。ショーはこのホテルで行われます。
１７:００集合でしたが、行くとロビー横の廊下に長蛇の列ができてました。
後のことも考えると受付には早くいくことをお勧めします。並ぶのが遅いと、後々食事時間に影響します。
特別料金を払うと前の方の席になり、あまり並ぶ必要もありません。
並ぶと順番に対応してくれますが、花のレイか貝殻のレイか聞かれます。貝殻は無料で花のレイ有料です。お互いに貝殻のレイをかけあいました。
その後バウチャーをチケットにかえ、入場する会場に向かいます。
会場につくとず～っとゆったりとしたハワイアンミュージックが演奏されています。全員がテーブルにつくまで、席に座って待ちます。飲み物は入口の近くに自分でとりにいきます。大人はビールやマイタイが提供され、子どもは赤いクランベリージュースのみです。１０歳の子供はそれがダメでした。それと同時に５種類くらいの昔の遊びや顔や足にスタンプのような飾りをつけたりと伝統的な昔の遊びの紹介があります。それに参加するかどうかは自由です。その後フラダンスのレッスンがあつたり、伝統的な料理、バナナの皮に肉を包んで蒸すなどの説明があったり、３０分くらいの自由な時間があります。その間もハワイアンミュージックがずっとかかってます。入場して一時間くらい経つとようやく海からカメハメハ大王が陸に上陸してきます。
それが終わるとようやく食事ですが、前方の席から順番によぱれ食事(ビュッフェ)を取りにいきます。でも自由には取りにいけないのです。テーブルごとによばれるので、とにかく最初のテーブルの人たちが呼ばれてからもさいてい３０分は待ちました。１０歳の子供は、ゆったりとしたミュージックと昼のシュノーケリングでとうとうご飯を食べずに寝てしまいました。お腹がへっているのに、なかなか順番は来ず、自分のテーブルの順番を待ってやっとご飯を食べました。
デザートコーヒー紅茶はあります。
御飯が食べ終わってもう部屋に帰ってもいいんじゃないのと思う頃にようやくショーが始まりました。ショーはハワイアンダンスにファイヤーショーがあったりなかなかよかったですが、とにかく食事にありつくのにも、ショーを見るのにも時間がかなりかかり、心と時間にかなりゆとりをもたないと、逆に疲れてしまいました。
ハワイアンミュージックはとても心地よく、息子二人と旦那もウトウト肝心のショーの時には、
頭が揺れてました。終わりは20:30。大人が参加するショーかなと思います。
１０歳の子供は結局起きず、何とかチキンナゲットとポテト、白ご飯とお肉だけをいただいたパックに詰め込んで、部屋に戻ってから食べました。
子どもより年配の方々向けのショーです。

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　ボイジャーズ・オブ・ザ・パシフィック（ロイヤルコナリゾート内）＜月・火・水・金催行／ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

You can fully enjoy the Hawaiian mood. ハワイムードが満喫できます

Reviewed by: ひまわり

Everything was in English, but I enjoyed the atmosphere! The sunset sinking behind the palm trees, the cheerful host, Hawaiian music, and the Polynesian show created a full Hawaiian mood!

On the left side of the stage, there is an IMU oven, so if you're interested, sitting closer will give you a better view. However, after the meat is taken out, it does have a bit of a burnt smell.

For drinks, there were Mai Tais, juice, coffee, and tea. There seemed to be other alcoholic options, but I wasn't sure about them. The Mai Tai was a system where you fill a bowl with tropical juice and have the staff add rum. It was delicious even without the rum.

The food included oven-roasted pork, chicken, beef, and various vegetable dishes. It's nice to be able to try a little bit of different Hawaiian dishes. The Kona coffee cake was delicious!

The Polynesian dance wasn't exactly amazing, but since it was performed by locals, the atmosphere was nice, and the location was great, so I enjoyed it.

In the second half, there was a Hawaiian music time for a cheek dance. We just watched, but it was lovely to see an older couple from the West looking into each other's eyes and dancing or embracing.

I recommend this show for fully enjoying the feeling of being in Hawaii!

すべてが英語ですが、雰囲気で楽しめました♪
ヤシの木の後ろに沈んでく夕日、陽気な司会とハワイアンミュージック、ポリネシアンショーとハワイアンムード満点でした！

ステージに向かって左側にIMUオーブンがあるので、興味がある方は近い席の方が前で見られると思います。
ただお肉を取り出した後、まわりがちょっと焦げ臭いです。

飲み物はマイタイ、ジュースとコーヒー紅茶がありました。他のアルコールもあったみたいですが、よくわからなかったです。
マイタイはボウルに入っているトロピカルジュースを自分で入れ、スタッフの方にラムを入れてもらうシステムでした。
ラムなしでも美味しかったです。

食べ物はオーブンで焼いた豚肉の他チキンもビーフもあり、野菜料理も色々とありました。
色々なハワイ料理を少しずつ食べられるのが良いです。
コナコーヒーのケーキが美味しかったです♪

ポリネシアンダンスは正直すごい！というほどではなかったのですが、本場の方なので雰囲気があり、ロケーションもよかったので楽しめました。

後半ハワイアンミュージックでチークダンスタイムがありました。
私達はただ見てましたが、欧米の老夫婦が見つめあって踊ったり抱き合ったりする様子はとても素敵でした☆*。

ハワイに来たー！という気分を満喫するのにおすすめのショーです。

Reviewed by: Family traveler

We originally arrived on a Friday to see the show, but shortly after we started the meal,we were completely rained out. That was very disappointing and upsetting that we weren't forewarned by email about the strong possibility of rain, as we had come over from Hilo for the luau. However, we received a rain check for another luau on the following Monday. Fortunately, we were able to rearrange our schedule to come before flying home. The Monday night luau was lovely - entertainment and emcee were fantastic all around. Food was good, not great. Service was okay. Location was beautiful.

I was able to enjoy a long sightseeing tour. 長時間遊覧できました

Reviewed by: くるり

I signed up for the helicopter tour because I wanted to take in the expansive views of the Big Island and see the flowing lava.

During my visit, the lava was at a lower flow rate, so I couldn't see much of it flowing, but I was able to witness the red masses burning through the trees.

Additionally, I could view areas that are difficult to reach by car, such as Hilo and the northern mountainous regions and waterfalls, from the air.

Although it is expensive, it was a satisfying sightseeing flight.

ハワイ島は広いので、空からぐるっと眺めたいのと、流れている溶岩が見たくて申し込みました。

溶岩は丁度少な目の時期でしたので、そこまで流れている感じは見ることができませんでしたが
赤い塊が木々を燃やしている様子は見ることができました。

また、ヒロ方面や北部の山岳地帯・滝など
車では行きにくい方も空から眺めることができました。

高額ではありますが、満足できる遊覧飛行でした。

Talented and great looking actors, musicians and hostess. The food was high quality. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is the Mai Tais. They were mainly juice, super sweet and head-ache inducing. The bar closed much earlier than dinner ended, so I couldn't take advantage of the open bar. Another thing that didn't seem fair is that teenagers paid the same as adults. And of course they weren't drinking...

Reviewed by: naonao

After reading everyone's reviews, we decided not to upgrade our seats and lined up in front of the reception about 30 minutes early to wait for it to open. Naturally, there weren't many people lining up that early, so we were first in line. As a result, we were guided to the best seats in the general area, which had a great view. The food was just okay.

This might be true for shows everywhere, but even though this is Hawaii, I was a bit disappointed that there were more revealing Tahitian dances than elegant Hawaiian hula. However, the final fire knife dance is always a highlight, no matter how many times you see it.

皆さんの口コミを見て、席のグレードアップはせず、30分くらい前から受付前に並び、開くのを待ちました。当然こんなに早く並んでいる人たちはおらず、私たちが1番。なので一般席の中でも1番前の見やすい席へ案内してもらえました。料理もまあまあかな。
どこのショーにも共通して言えることなのでしょうが、ここはハワイなのに、優雅なハワイアンフラよりも、露出度の高いタヒチアンダンスの方が多いのがちょっとだけ不満です。
でも、最後のファイアーナイフダンスは何度見ても良いものですね。

I had reserved standard seats, so I checked in early and waited for the opening at 5:30 PM. As a result, I was guided to standard seats close to the stage.
Looking around, I noticed there were few Japanese people, which made me feel like I was abroad.
The buffet line started with the premium seats, so I had to wait quite a bit. The buffet offered a variety of dishes, including Hawaiian cuisine, and the portions were generous.
The hula dance and fire dance shows were impressive. The engaging female host guided the show, and the Western audience was really into her talk. I realized I need to improve my English skills.
Overall, I had a very satisfying time with the show, the food, and the atmosphere around me.

　スタンダート席を予約してましたので、早めに受け付けをして17:30からの開場を待ちました。その結果、舞台に近いスタンダート席に案内されました。
　周りを見ても日本人は少なく、海外に来たなと感じました。
　ビュッフェの順番はプレミアム席の後にスタンダート席なので、少し（だいぶ）待ちくたびれました。ビュッフェ料理はハワイ料理のほか種類も多く、ボリュームたっぷりでした。
　フラダンスとファイアーダンスのショーは迫力がありました。味のある司会者（女性）がショーの進行をされており、そのトークに欧米人はかなりノリノリでした。私は英語力をつけなければと痛感しました。
　全体的には、ショー、料理、周りの雰囲気などとても満足した時間を過ごせました。

I shouldn't have changed my seat (TT). 席を変更しなければよかった（TT）

Reviewed by: miyu

I decided to change to a premium seat at the last minute because I wanted to see as close as possible. I admit I was at fault for making this plan on the day I arrived, but since the hotel was on the premises and the seats were assigned, I thought it would be fine even if I was a bit late. However, when I got there, there was already a group in front of me, making it very difficult to see. Even though they advertised free drinks, they didn't come to take my order when I called out (they did go to other foreign guests), and I wasn't given a lei either. I regretted changing my seat many times. I also had a bad experience at the Hilton in Oahu, and I think this was the worst. I was really looking forward to it...

できるだけ近くで見たいと思い直前にプレミアシートに変更をしました。現地へ着く日にこの予定を入れたのはこちらにも落ち度があったけどホテルは敷地内だし席は決まっているのだし、遅れても大丈夫だと思い行ってみると、前には既に団体がいてとても見えにくい位置でした。飲み物もフリードリンクといいながら、声をかけてもオーダーを取りに来ないし（他の外人のところへは来る）レイもかけてもらえなかったし、こんなことなら席を変更しなければ良かったと何度も思いました。オアフでもヒルトンではいい思いをしなかったし最低だと思いました。楽しみにしていたのに・・・。

There is an order to take the dishes. 料理を取る順番があります。

Reviewed by: カツパパ

Let's arrive a little before the scheduled time! The lines can be longer than expected, so it's recommended to come early.

You'll line up neatly until the time, and then you'll be guided to your seat with a drink in hand. They will ask if you prefer to sit side by side or facing each other, so choose according to your preference!

Although we had regular seats, if possible, I recommend splurging a bit for the premium seating. It seems to come with snacks and better service. Also, there will be an early signal for the meal.

The dining is buffet style, but initially, the order is determined by your seating, so if you're at the back, just wait for your turn!

The whole roasted pig is exciting when it comes out, but the aroma is a bit strong and might be more than expected... it varies by person.

It was a genuinely enjoyable show. You can see the sunset from the left side of the stage, so be sure to have your camera ready and time it right! It's a must-see.

時間より少し前に行きましょう！思ったより並びますので、早めがオススメです。
時間までキッチリ並んで、最初にワンドリンク片手に席へ案内されます。横並びか？向かい合わせか？聞いてきますので、好みに合わせましょう！
普通席でしたが、出来れば少しおごってプレミアムな良いせいがオススメです。前の先で、スナックが付き、サービスが良い気がします。また、早めに食事の合図があります。
食事は、バッフェスタイルですが、最初は席により順番が決まっているので、後回しになっても指示を待ちましょう！
豚の丸焼きが出てきて興奮しますが、少し香りが強く思ったより・・・個人差があります。
本格的なショーでとても楽しかったです。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

Enjoying Hawaii Island from the sky. ハワイ島を空から満喫

Reviewed by: Cooper

You will take a shuttle from Blue Hawaiian Helicopters and arrive at the office in about 10 minutes. Upon entering the office, you will check in, but it seems there are no staff members who speak Japanese. You will leave your bag and hat there. After completing the check-in process, you will watch a flight safety video, and then it's finally time to board the helicopter.

The tour departs from Waikoloa and covers Mauna Loa, Kilauea, and Waipi'o. The aircraft is called ECO-STAR, which seats two people in the front and four in the back. We sat in the two seats on the right in the back.

As we ascend, you can clearly see the flow of lava. The Waikoloa side is barren, either covered in lava or grassland.

During the flight, you will wear headphones to hear the pilot's voice. The crew speaks into a microphone, and everyone can hear them. Other passengers are conversing in English; while I can generally understand what they are saying, my English skills aren't strong enough to actively participate in the conversation, so I mostly remained quiet.

The helicopter heads towards Mauna Loa. If there were no clouds, we might have been able to see the summit of Mauna Kea, but it was obscured by clouds. The slopes of Mauna Loa are gentle, and you can see the different colors of the ground following the flow of lava. As we flew over Mauna Loa, the greenery gradually increased. After flying past Mauna Loa for a while, we saw smoke rising through the clouds. As we descended closer to the crater, we could see red lava coming from it. This is a view that can only be seen from the helicopter, and it is truly breathtaking. The pilot circles around the crater, changing direction so that both sides can see, allowing us to take plenty of photos and videos.

After that, the helicopter heads to another location. Here, white smoke or steam is billowing from the ground, and as we get closer, we can see some red lava within it. I think the lava appeared closer here than at the Kilauea crater. This is a place that cannot be seen except from the helicopter.

Next, we pass over the town of Hilo, and shortly after, we see Waipi'o Valley. The helicopter briefly flies past Waipi'o Valley and along the coastline. The coastline features steep cliffs with several waterfalls cascading down. After viewing these waterfalls, the helicopter makes a U-turn and heads back to Waipi'o Valley. As we enter the valley, we can see a large waterfall in the distance. Continuing further into the valley, we discover several waterfalls on the mountainside. I never imagined there would be so many waterfalls until we entered the valley. The helicopter flies along the mountainside, circling and maneuvering. The turns here are quite thrilling, combining turns with altitude changes, creating a bit of an attraction-like experience. This is arguably the highlight of the flight.

After exiting Waipi'o Valley, we ascend and head to the other side of the mountain. The lush green scenery of the valley suddenly gives way to a dry landscape with no trees. I was surprised at how distinctly the climate changed in such a short distance.

After that, we head south along the coastline of the Kohala Coast. After a while, we can see the helicopter pad where we started. This aerial journey comes to an end here.

Although it was a bit pricey, this experience is something you can't do anywhere else, and the satisfaction level is incredibly high. If given the chance, I would love to do it again, and I think it would be a shame not to see this scenery after coming all the way to the Big Island. If the pilot had been Japanese, I might have understood more details, but even without understanding English, I think just seeing the scenery is enough to grasp the experience. I highly recommend it to everyone.

ブルー・ハワイアン・ヘリコプターの送迎車に乗り、10分程度でオフィスに到着します。
オフィスに入って受付をしますが、日本語の話せるスタッフはいない模様。バッグと帽子を預けます。
チェックインを済ませて、フライトの説明ビデオを見て、いよいよヘリに乗り込みます。

ツアーはワイコロアを出発しマウナロア、キラウエア、ワイピオを回るものです。
機体はECO-STARと呼ばれるもので、前に2人、後ろに4人座れます。私たち2人は後ろの右2席へ座りました。

上昇するにつれて、溶岩が流れた様子がよく分かります。ワイコロア側は溶岩か牧草地で何もないです。

飛行中はヘッドフォンをしていて、パイロットの声が聞こえるようになっています。乗員はマイクで喋るとその声がみんなに聞こえます。他の乗客は英語で普通に喋っていますが、こちらは相手の言っていることはだいたいわかりますが積極的に会話に加われるほどの英語力はないため、ほとんどしゃべることはありませんでした。

ヘリはマウナロアに向けて進行していきます。雲が無ければマウナケアの山頂も見えたかもしれませんが、そちら方向は雲に隠れて見えません。
マウナロアの山は緩やかな傾斜で、溶岩の流れに従って地面の色が分かれているのがよく分かります。
マウナロアの山を越えるに従って、少しずつ緑も増えていきます。
マウナロアを過ぎて暫く飛ぶと、雲の間から煙が見えたきました。高度を下げて火口に近付くと火口から赤い溶岩が見えます。
まさにヘリからしか見えない景色、感動の景色です。
両側の席のそれぞれが見えるようにパイロットは旋回する向きを変えながら火口の上を旋回してくれます。おかげてたっぷり写真とビデオを撮ることができました。

ヘリはそのあと、別の場所へ向かいます。そこでは地面からいくつもの煙とも水蒸気とも入れない白いものが吹き出ており、近ずくとその中に赤い溶岩が幾つか見えます。キラウエアの火口よりも溶岩が近くに見えたと思います。この場所はヘリ以外では絶対見えない場所です。

その後、ヒロの街を通り過ぎ、暫くするとワイピオ渓谷が見えてきます。
ヘリは一旦ワイピオ渓谷を過ぎて海岸に沿って進みます。海岸線は絶壁になっていて、幾つもの滝が流れ落ちています。それらの滝を見たあとヘリはUターンしてワイピオ渓谷へ引き返します。渓谷の中へ進むと奥に大きな滝が見えます。その滝からさらに奥へ進むと山肌に幾つもの滝が現れます。これほど多くの滝があるとは渓谷に入るまでは想像できませんでした。ヘリは山肌に沿って飛行したり、旋回したりしながら進んで行きます。ここでの旋回はかなりスリリングで旋回と上下が組み合わさり、ちょっとしたアトラクション気分です。この飛行の最大の見せ場と言えます。

その後、ワイピオ渓谷を抜け上昇して山の反対側へ行きます。今まで緑一杯だった渓谷の風景から一気に木がなくなり、乾燥した大地が現れます。これだけ、ちょっとの間にはっきりと気候が分かれるのにびっくりしました。

その後は、コハラコーストの海岸線を見ながら南下していきます。暫くすると、出発したヘリポートも見えてきました。この空の旅もここで終わりです。

ちょっと値段は高かったですが、この体験は他ではできないものですし、満足感はすごく高いです。
機会があれば、また乗ってみたいとも思いますし、せっかくハワイ島まで来てこの景色を見ないのはもったいないと思います。
パイロットが日本人ならもっと詳しく理解できたでしょうが、英語が分からなくても景色を見るだけで十分理解できると思います。
みなさんに、おすすめできます。

ハワイのような場所はありません。 There's no place like Hawaii

Reviewed by: Cooper

The voucher stated to meet at Kamehameha Court, but the map indicated the main entrance. Initially, I waited at the entrance, but something felt off, so I went directly to the luau venue, which turned out to be Kamehameha Court. I should have ignored the map.

When I checked in, the staff member put a lei around my neck and took a photo. I later purchased this photo at the hotel's photo corner.

The venue opened at 5:30 PM, and we were guided to our seats. We were seated in the middle row, and since there were two people in the front row, we took the next row. Looking around, there were only a few people who seemed to be Japanese, while most of the surrounding guests appeared to be American.

Since we had premium seats, we were given priority to go get food first, and if we wanted drinks, we could just tell the butler, and they would bring them to us. The meal included Hawaiian dishes, which I prioritized trying, and they were decent in taste. The kalua pig was delicious, and the ahi poke tasted as I expected, but the ube didn’t quite suit my palate. There was a bit of heavy rain during the meal, but by the time we finished eating, the rain had stopped.

After we settled down with our meals, the show began. It combined hula and fire dancing, and the emcee guided the proceedings. Being close to the stage made it quite thrilling. At one point, I was chosen by a dancer to go up on stage and dance hula with them. I could only move my body somewhat awkwardly, but I managed to get through it by mimicking what I saw.

Personally, I think it would have been better if the show started a bit earlier during the meal to shorten the overall time, but I believe it was an enjoyable show. By the end, I found myself humming the phrase, "There's no place like Hawaii."

バウチャーにはカメハメハコート集合と書いていますが、地図の場所はメインエントランスになっていました。
最初エントランスで待っていましたが、何か様子が違うので直接ルアウの会場へ行きましたがそこがカメハメハコートとのこと。地図、見ない方が良かったです。
受付をすると、係りの人がレイを付けてくれて写真撮影です。この写真はその後、ホテルの写真コーナーで購入しました。

17:30から開場となり、席に案内されます。席は真ん中の列で最前列に2人いたのでその次の列となります。
周りを見ると日本人らしき人も何人かいた程度で、席の周りはアメリカ人のようです。
プレミアム席なので、食事を取りに行くのは最初に優先的に行けますし、ドリンクも飲みたいものをバトラーへ伝えれば持ってきてもらえます。
食事にはハワイの料理などもあり、そちらを優先的に食べてみましたが、そこそこの味でした。
カイルアピッグは美味しかったし、アヒポキも予想していた味でしたが、ウベはちょっと口に合いませんでした。
食事中に少し雨が強くなることもありましたが、食事が終わるころには雨は止みました。

食事も一段落したころ、ショーが始まりました。
ショーはフラとファイアーダンスを組み合わせたもので、司会の進行で進められていきます。ステージに近いので、迫力があります。
途中、ダンサーに指名されてステージに上がり、一緒にフラを踊ることになりました。適当に体を動かすしかできなかったですが、見よう見真似でなんとか乗り切りました。

個人的には、食事の途中からショーが始まるようにしてもう少し全体を時間を短くしてもらったほうが良かったとは思いますが、楽しめるショーではないかと思います。終わるころには、「There's no place like Hawaii」のフレーズを口ずさんでいました。

Luau & Hula Hawaiian Show Hilton ルアウ＆フラ ハワイアンショー ヒルトン

Reviewed by: くーちゃん

I was very moved because I wanted to see the dinner and Hawaiian show. Since I stayed at the Hilton Waikoloa Village, it was convenient to move around the property. I received a lei, and there was all-you-can-drink and all-you-can-eat. The luau and hula were impressive and wonderful!

ディナー＆ハワイアンショーを観たかったのでとても感動しました。宿泊場所のヒルトンワイコロアヴィレッジだったので移動も敷地内。レイを掛けてもらい飲み放題食べ放題。ルアウもフラも迫力満点で素敵でした！

It was great. よかったです

Reviewed by: ようこ

I wasn't very satisfied with the show itself since I do hula dancing, but the location was outstanding, and I enjoyed the atmosphere at the venue with the beautiful sunset. I recommend arriving early as there is quite a line before the doors open.

フラを自身がやっているため、ショー自体にはそれほど満足していませんが、ロケーションは抜群に良く夕日の綺麗な会場で、雰囲気を楽しめました。開場までに結構並ぶので早めに行かれることをお勧めします
