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.

Kool show super packed parking was crazy I recommend parking off site because 200 people plus a fishing tournament and whatever else is happening in the area leaving at the same time it took 45 min just to get out of the parking lot.
If parking is limited something else is going on in the area leaving will be not fun

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。
ハワイならではのルアウを楽しんでください

I splurged on a helicopter ride, thinking I might never come back to the Big Island again. I was moved by the breathtaking scenery that can only be seen from a helicopter, such as valleys, cliffs, and the traces of flowing lava. It was also great that I could ask questions and talk with the pilot through the microphone.
もう2度とハワイ島まで来られないだろうと、奮発して搭乗しました。
普通では見られない渓谷や岸壁、溶岩が流れた跡など、ヘリコプターならではの風景に感動しました。パイロットさんとマイクを通して質問したりお話し出来たのも良かったです。
If I had splurged a little more and taken the passenger seat, it might have been even more fun. I took so many photos and videos that before I knew it, my smartphone ran out of battery. Let's be caref
あともう少し奮発して助手席にすればもっと楽しかったかも。

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。

I was excited to share the Lei Greeting with my family, since I recall it was a great way to start off the trip when we did it years ago. However, the Greeter just sort of handed you a Lei and Bracelet and said welcome. There was no big greeting, she was too busy to offer to take a picture, never looked us in the eyes and looked like she was overworked and just trying to hand out meals to 50 small school children as fast as possible. I ended up pulling my family aside and asking a stranger to take our photos and then explained how this is a great way to start off our family vacation.

I experienced it on May 7, 2025.
1. I was very satisfied with the location, the pilot, and the staff. I highly recommend it. 100 points.
2. Since my seat was on the left side, all the highlights were on the right side of the journey. The aircraft blocked my view, and I couldn't take the photos I wanted, which was disappointing. I requested the pilot to make a turn, but it was only accommodated once. Minus 40 points.
2025年5月7日体験しました。
1、体感は、ロケーション、パイロット、スタッフのみなさんには大満足でした。
おすすめです。100点
2、席が左サイドだった為、見所は全行程右サイドで、隣りの人越し、機体が邪魔になり、せっかくのロケーションが写真も思うように撮れず、心が折れましたよ
パイロットに旋回をリクエストしたがその1回切りの対応でした。
マイナス40点。

I've been to Hawaii nearly 20 times, and until now, my visits were primarily for golfing. However, as I've gotten older (79 years old) and my companions have diminished, this time I went with my wife and two of her friends.
At the women's request, we went whale watching for the first time. I couldn't understand the guide's English, but I could feel the boat's determination to chase after the whales. Unfortunately, we couldn't encounter them up close, but we did catch a glimpse of a black whale breaching in the distance, along with a faint spout of water.
While I wasn't completely satisfied, the anticipation was definitely there. On the way back, the sight of the white waves crashing against the coastline of the Big Island was a breathtaking view that you can't see from the ground. However, the boat's light snack was just a single pasta dish, which was disappointing.
ハワイは20回近くいっていますが、今まではゴルフ目的でしたが、歳を重ね(79歳)同伴者がいなくなり今回は妻と妻の友達2人でした。
女性陣の希望で初めてホエールウォッチングをしました。
ガイドは英語で理解出来ませんでしたが、船は懸命にクジラを追っているな感じは伝わって跳ねるきましたが、近くでの遭遇出来ず、遠くで微かに吹き上がる潮と跳ねる黒いクジラが一瞬見られました。
大満足は出来ませんでしたが、期待感は十分でした。
帰路船からみるハワイ島の海岸に打ち上げてある白い波しぶきは地上では見られない迫力ある光景でした。
船の軽食はパスタが一品だけで期待ハズレでした。
Before boarding, there is a process to input personal information into the computer, which took some time. Therefore, I think it's best to arrive with plenty of time before your boarding time.

ご参加いただき、初めてのクジラ観察の冒険を共にしていただき、ありがとうございます。また、体験を共有していただき、心より感謝申し上げます。ビッグアイランドの海岸線の素晴らしい景色を楽しんでいただけたことを嬉しく思いますが、クジラの目撃は時には距離があることもあることを理解しています。これらの素晴らしい生き物は自然の生息地で自由に動いていますので、私たちは誇り高いNOAA準拠のツアーオペレーターとして、クジラの安全と健康を確保するために、少なくとも100ヤードの距離を保ちながら、最高の観賞機会を提供しています。

Thank you for joining us on your first whale-watching adventure and for sharing your experience. We truly appreciate your visit and your feedback. While we’re glad you enjoyed the stunning views of the Big Island’s coastline, we understand that whale sightings can sometimes be at a distance, as these magnificent creatures move freely in their natural habitat. As a proud NOAA-compliant tour operator, we respectfully maintain a distance of at least 100 yards from whales to ensure their safety and well-being while providing the best viewing opportunities possible.
We also appreciate your feedback on the snack offerings and will take it into consideration as we continually strive to enhance our guest experience. Mahalo for choosing Body Glove Cruises, and we hope to welcome you aboard again for another adventure!

It was my first time on a helicopter, and it was exciting. The pilot provided explanations in Japanese, which was helpful. Well, since it was volcanic activity, it couldn't be helped, but I didn't get to see the red lava of Kilauea. Also, it wasn't a landing tour to the waterfall, but I was hoping to see it, so I was a bit disappointed.
ヘリコプターの初搭乗なこともありますが、エキサイティングでした。パイロットさんが日本語でも解説してくれたので、助かりました。まあ、火山活動なので仕方ないですが、キラウエアの赤い溶岩は見られませんでした。あと、滝への着陸ツアーではありませんが、見られると思っていたので少し残念です。
I think it would be better if it were the passenger seat. When someone outside the group rides in the co-pilot seat, their clothing and behavior can affect the comfort and visibility for the people in
やはり助手席だったらと思います。グループ外の人がパイロット助手席に同乗した場合、その人の服装、振る舞いで、後席の人は快適性、外の見易さに影響アリです。ガイダンス通り暗めの服装をして欲しいです。

This tour was exactly what we were looking for...all details taken care of. All we had to do was get ourselves to the Kona Airprt. Our tour guide, Moana, met us at the airport in Honolulu and explained every step of the way...where and when to meet her for the next stop. All of the memorials were so special and we felt such gratitude to these soldiers who risked and gave their lives for us. The USS Missouri was especially impressive to us for its enormity and how she continues to serve our country as a representative of the great battleships that protected our country.
We especially recommend the tour if you are on another island, as they make your flight plans.
