I was told that the ship had already departed when I arrived at Ticket Street at 2 PM. I was surprised. The receptionist felt sorry and changed my reservation to a dinner cruise starting later that night, but it was a few hours later, and since I wanted to go whale watching, it felt like a waste. It was disappointing.
ここは、チケット通りの午後2時に行ったら、何んと船が出港済みですと言われました。びっくりでした。受付の人が気の毒がって、夜からスタートのディナークルーズに変えてくれましたが、数時間後スタートであり、且つ、自分が行きたかったのはホエールウォッチだったので、無駄にしました。残念でした。

On the day of my arrival in Hawaii, I was feeling jet-lagged and didn't have the energy to move around, so I decided to stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel. At first, it was enjoyable, but as the evening progressed, it got a bit chilly for the beach show, and the food was just average. I started to get bored with the show. The dancing was beautiful, but the time spent listening to the host talk while the dancers changed backstage was very dull. I guess it really is a language barrier...
ハワイ到着当日は時差ぼけもあるため動く気にもならず宿泊がキングカメハメハホテルだったので申し込みをしました。最初は楽しかったのですが、ビーチでのショーのため夕方少し涼しいのがだんだん寒くなり、ご飯も普通だしショーも飽きてしまいました。踊りは素敵だったのですが、ダンサーが裏で着替える間の時間稼ぎに司会者がしゃべるこの時間がとてもつまらなかったです。やはり言葉の壁ですかね・・・
Dear Kaori Moriya,
Thank you for visiting the Island Breeze Luau. I hope you are doing well despite the chilly weather and any fatigue you may have experienced.
I wish to create a luau show that can overcome any language barriers.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.

Amazing creatures. Definitely a must see activity if you are in Hawaii during the right time of year. I liked the fact that this tour allowed to you return until you actually see whales. I was fortunate to see my first time out, but nice to know I could have returned if I needed to without additional expense.

I arranged this for my parents who are over 60 years old. They mentioned that there was an hour of waiting time from when they were picked up until they boarded. Was that time for a stroll? They said that all the explanations underwater were in English, but even though my parents don't understand English, they were able to enjoy it to some extent.

I'm afraid the whales were very shy during our particular trip. We did see two on 4/5 occasions but only briefly from a distance. In these circumstances I think it's best to look upon the trip as a pleasure cruise because we were treated to great views of the Western side of Big Island. The crew deserve a mention...always polite and courteous...they looked after everyone with complimentary soft drinks.

This time, my spouse and I stayed on the Big Island for six days.
We only booked the "Deluxe Tour to World Heritage Site Kilauea and Mauna Kea Stargazing (Volcano and Stars in One Day!) by Kailani Tours Hawaii" through VELTRA, so we also signed up for this plan to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere. It was definitely the right choice!
Although there were opinions in the reviews that everything was in English and it wouldn't be fun unless you were proficient in the language, I’m posting this to alleviate those concerns and help others enjoy it more.
1. First, the coupon reception
I attached a photo, but when you enter the Kamehameha Hotel and go to the right at the dedicated reception, you can present your coupon, and they will tell you the meeting place. (Staff were present at this reception from the morning.) This map was provided by the hotel. Since I’m not good at English, bringing it along to ask about the meeting place was a good decision. I might not have understood it just verbally... (It was in an area that seemed to explain Hawaii's history within the hotel.)
2. Meeting place and landmarks
I attached a photo for this as well, but there will be signs in the hotel, so that’s where you gather. The person at the dedicated reception told me to arrive by 5 PM, but be careful about that! It’s better to arrive about an hour early to secure a good spot in line. I arrived 50 minutes early and was at the front of the general line, but there was already one group in the priority line, and it became a queue after about 20 minutes. The seating is first-come, first-served, so it’s best to gather early!
3. Content
After lining up, I received a free lei (I didn’t purchase the paid ones) and took photos (they will come around selling them), and after checking in, we went to the venue to grab drinks and were shown to our seats. I was the first to arrive and sat in the front row center of the general seating, but the Japanese people who arrived normally and lined up were also seated together in fairly decent spots in a separate group. (It seems they make arrangements so that you can converse with others in Japanese.)
At the venue, a band was already performing, and there were free services like tattooing and weaving fish with grass. Of course, drinks, including alcohol, were free-flowing.
Dinner started around 6:15 PM, and it gets dark before 7 PM, so it’s best to wrap up your meal and drinks by then.
Having researched the structure of this event through reviews, I was able to enjoy it a lot even though I’m not good at English. It was fun. (I think it would be enjoyable even for families with children!)
今回はハワイ島に夫婦で6日間の滞在でした。
VELTRAさんの「高級バン(メルセデス・ベンツ)で行く!世界遺産キラウエアとマウナケア山麓星空観測(1日で火山と星 ♪)デラックスツアーby カイラニ・ツアーズ・ハワイ」しかツアーは申し込んでいなかったので、ハワイの雰囲気を堪能するためにこのプランも申し込みました。
参加して大正解でした!
口コミではすべて英語なので語学が堪能でないと面白くないとの意見も出ていましたが、そんな不安を解消するためと、より楽しんでもらうために投稿をします。
1.まずはクーポンの受付
写真を張りましたが、カメハメハホテルを入って右手の専用受付にクーポンを出すと、
集合場所を教えてくれます。(この受付は朝からスタッフが張り付いていました。)
この見取り図はホテルでもらった見取り図です。英語が苦手なため持参して集合場所を聞い
たのは正解でした。口頭だけだとわからなかったかも、、、
(ホテル内にあるハワイの歴史説明エリアみたいなところでした。)
2.集合場所や目印
これも写真を張りましたが、ホテル内に看板が出されるのでそこに集合です。
専用受付の人は17時に行けばいいと教えてくれますが、そこは注意!
約一時間前に行って列の先頭をとれるかとれないかの感じです。私は50分前に行って
一般列の先頭でしたが、既に優先席列には一組並んでいましたし、20分ぐらいしたら行列
になっています。観覧席は早いもの順なので早めの集合が良いですよ!
3.内容
行列に並んだあと、無料レイ(有料例は購入しませんでした)を受けもらって撮影後
(会場で売りに来ます)、本受付をしたのちに会場までいって飲み物を取って席に案内を
してもらいます。
私は一番乗りで一般席最前列中央でしたが、普通に来て並んでいた日本人たちは、別グルー
プでもそんなに悪くない席にある程度まとめて座らせてもらっていました。(日本語で他人
と会話ができるようにしてくれる配慮みたいです)
会場ではすでにバンドが演奏、タトゥーや草で魚編む体験など無料のサービスがあります。
もちろん飲み物もアルコールを含めてフリードリンクです。
1815ぐらいから食事開始で、19時前には手元も暗くなりますから、それまでに食事や飲み
物はひと段落しておいたほうがいいですね。
ある程度、このイベントの構成等を口コミ等で調べていたので、英語が苦手でもすごく楽しめました。
楽しかったです。(お子様がいても楽しめると思いますよ!)
Thank you for coming to the Island Breeze Luau Show.
And above all, we are filled with gratitude for your warm message.
We appreciate the love we receive from everyone and the opportunity to work in the Hawaiian breeze.
Our hotel staff and dancers always strive to ensure that everyone enjoys their experience, but due to the influence of returning guests and reviews, we have noticed that many guests line up very early before the reception starts. Therefore, this year we have changed the lineup location from the beachside to the cooler hotel interior.
Receiving comments like yours and such thoughtful explanations inspires us to think of better improvements and motivates us to ensure everyone has a great time.
If you have the opportunity to visit the Big Island again, please stop by. We will always be waiting to deliver warm breezes and aloha.

Since I stayed at the King Kamehameha Hotel, I had no travel time at all. I wasn't sure where the reception was and got a little lost, but I saw a line forming, so I joined it. While waiting, I was asked if I wanted to buy a lei and had the chance to take some photos.
After checking in, I went to the venue next to the beach and made my way to my seat with a drink in hand. The Mai Tai was really delicious. I ordered various drinks and enjoyed them. The staff guided us to our seats as we arrived. Once seated, I chatted with the people next to me and across from me while waiting for the show to start. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but everyone was kind and spoke to me.
The show was entirely in English, but it was enjoyable to watch, so I found it interesting. It was an impressive performance.
However... since it was outdoors, there was a downpour, and I received a raincoat from the staff to watch the show. The show proceeded as scheduled despite the rain. Even in the downpour, I laughed with those around me, saying, "Wow, the rain is intense!" This became a good memory.
The food was delicious, especially the meat, taro, and poke. I think it's better to take a lot at once so you can enjoy the show at a leisurely pace. There are many types of drinks, so I believe you'll find a favorite.
I think this Hawaiian show offers an experience of "Hawaii" that you can't find on Oahu.
I would love to participate again if I stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel.
キングカメハメハホテルに泊まって参加だったため、移動時間がまったくありません。
受付の場所がわからず、少し迷ってしまいましたが行列ができていたので並びました。並んでいる間はレイを購入するか聞かれたり、写真をとったりしながら並びます。
受付後、ビーチ横にある会場に行き、ドリンクを片手に席まで行きます。マイタイがとってもおいしかったです。いろいろなドリンクを注文してたくさん飲みました。席は来た人から係の人が案内してくれます。席に着くと隣の人や向かいに座っている外国の方と話しながらショーを始まるのを待ちます。英語があまり話せないので不安でしたが、皆さん優しく話してくれました。
ショーはすべて英語ですが、見て楽しめるので面白かったです。
迫力のあるショーです。
しかし。。。
野外の為、スコールになってしまい、係の人にカッパをもらってショーを見ました。
ショーは雨天決行の為、普通にショーは進みます。

Dear Sakamai,
Thank you very much for attending the Luau show. I imagine it must have been quite challenging in the rain, but in Hawaii, we consider it a blessing. It means "the rain washes away the town, the people, and the hearts, making everything clean." We proceeded with the show with smiles, and it warms my heart to hear that you have good memories of it.
The show at the King Kamehameha Hotel received high praise, and it is a place we hold very dear in our long-standing relationship. We hope you will visit us again. It would be wonderful for us if you could enjoy plenty of food and drinks!

I was excited for my first dinner show, and I’ve lost track of how many days I’ve been in Hawaii. Being here makes me forget the days of the week and the date. I’m looking forward to the dinner show, which I’m seeing for the first time. The hula dancing was impressive; I can’t believe how much they can move their hips! Everyone was beautiful and wonderful, and the male dancer who used fire was great. Seeing the fire drop live was a fresh experience.
However, the disappointing part was that I couldn’t understand English, so I didn’t know what the host was saying. The meal was rushed, and the drinks ended quickly, leaving me unsatisfied. It’s a shame! I had higher expectations, and I wish they could improve that aspect of the dinner show. After the show, I took photos with the dancers, which was a nice memory.
I’m thinking of traveling again to see another dinner show. I have many memories from my time in Hawaii, and one of them is the dinner show. Next time, I want to study a bit more English so that I can understand the host’s talk better!
初めてのディナーショーワクワク、ハワイも何日目かなぁ〜、ここに居ると曜日も日にちも忘れてしまう。ディナーショー楽しみ、初めて見る。フラダンス、よくあれだけ腰が動くなと感心‼︎みんな綺麗で素敵でした、炎を使った男性良かった、炎を落としたところも、生で見たからわかるこのであって、新鮮でした。でも残念なことは…英語がわからなくて、司会の方がなにを言ってるか分からなかった。そして、食事、慌ただしく食べた、飲み物も、早く終わり、物足りなかった。残念‼︎もっと期待して居ただけに、ディナーショーってこんなもの、その辺を何とかしてもらいたい 。ディナーショーが終わって、ダンサーの方と写真を知りました。これも、思い出 (^∇^)また旅行してディナーショー見に行こうと思います。ハワイでの思い出いろいろあります。その中のひとつがディナーショー、今度は英語がもぅ少し分かるくらい勉強して、司会の方のトークが理解できるくらいになりたい〜(*^_^*)
Dear Mami Mami,
Thank you very much for attending our dinner show. For us, who love Hawaii and Polynesia, it is a great joy to share the beauty of our hearts, the land, and our traditions through dance with everyone.
During the show, our host provided explanations of the story, hula lessons, and activities, as well as traditional dishes, to help everyone enjoy the experience even more. We tried to express ourselves as much as possible through gestures, even when language barriers existed, all while ensuring that you could relax and enjoy your time with us, which is an important role for us as your hosts. Thank you for your valuable words; we are deeply grateful.
We are currently creating a pamphlet that we can share with everyone in Japan. We hope that next time, we can be even closer to you, Mami Mami, and that you will enjoy the show even more. Our team was born in Polynesia and has deep connections with people from Japan.
Although it's just a little, some of us have learned Japanese, and the male fire dancer loves "shabu-shabu." After the show, greeting everyone and taking photos is one of the dancers' joys, so please feel free to speak to us in Japanese☆.
We look forward to the day we can meet again. With Aloha.

I had participated in a tour on Oahu before, and surprisingly, I had a lot of fun, so I assumed that on the nature-rich Big Island, I would see plenty of fish. However, it was disappointing. But I think first-timers will enjoy it. The submarine is about a 5-minute ride from the pier, which is more convenient than Oahu.
以前オアフ島で参加したことが有りその時は意外にも楽しかったので、自然豊かなハワイ島ならさぞかし沢山の魚が見られるものと思い込んでいたら、期待外れ。

On our last night in Hawaii, we decided to go to a luau. It was our first time, and I'm glad we went. We walked from a nearby hotel, and it's conveniently located in the town. We arrived early, and even 30 minutes before check-in, there was quite a line (the line is divided into one for extra fee and one for regular; if you arrive early for the regular line, you can get seats that are almost the same as the extra fee ones). There were hardly any Japanese people, possibly because the entire event was in English, and it seemed like most attendees were from the mainland and India. Although my child doesn't understand English, they enjoyed various experiences, starting with the shell lei received upon entry, the vibrant show, delicious food, and activities like making fish from coconut leaves and getting temporary tattoo-like stamps on their body. The show featured not only Hawaiian hula but also dances from various Polynesian islands, which felt quite impressive, and we enjoyed it nonetheless.
ハワイ島最後の夜はルアウに行こうと決めていました。初めてでしたが、行って良かったです。近くの別のホテルから徒歩で行きましたが、町中の便利な場所です。早めに行って、受付スタートの30分前でもかなりの行列でした(extra feeを払う列とregularの列に分かれて並びます。regularでも早めに行けば、extraとほとんど変わらない席に座れます)。全編英語のためか日本の方はほとんどいなくて、mainlandとIndiaからの方々が多かったようです。子どもは英語はわかりませんが、入るときにいただく貝殻のLeiに始まり、華やかなshowや美味しいお料理、そして、Hulaやcoconut leafでお魚を作る体験、体にtatoo風のスタンプを押してもらう体験などいろいろ楽しんでいました。ShowはHawaiian Hulaだけでなく、ポリネシアのいろんな島々の踊りがあって、かなりshow up された感じは受けましたが、それはそれで楽しめました。
Dear Yano,
My name is Ninomiya, and I have been providing Japanese support since September. Thank you for attending the luau show.

I attended the luau as a reluctant adult. I booked the luau so that my 12 year old goddaughter would see Pacific Island dances and experience some Hawaiian and South Pacific culture. It was way beyond my expectations! Of course it is touristy, but it is also a good overview of Pacific culture, dance, music and food. I also liked the light-heartedness of the event and it was super educational for my goddaughter. The food was much better than I expected and the activities were fun for both my 12 year old and myself. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

I told friend of mine that I was going to be in Kona with my family and he highly recommended that I take Captain cooks dinner cruise. He couldn't remember the actual name of the dinner cruise but with this info I googled it and found it. I was skeptical at first about going on the three hour cruise because we were a huge party of 12 women, children and one man (me), but let me tell you, it was the funnest event of our entire 10 days in Kona. For the most part people seem to be nice and easy-going on the Big Island, but the entire crew of the boat - from the "captain" to the bartender - where the coolest, nicest, and funniest people we met on our entire trip to the Big Island. They really bend over backwards to make you feel at home and they definitely keep you entertained with an interesting historical overview of the Hawaiian Islands given by a Hawaiian storyteller, as well as by a great musical performance given by a talented and recognized young music artist. I highly recommend this dinner cruise for anybody wishing to have a great time in Kona!

The show was powerful, but it wasn't particularly moving. However, I had a great time taking photos and interacting with the dancers. If you're staying in Kona and want to enjoy a meal while watching a luau show, I think it's definitely worth participating. As for the food, there were not many dishes that I found delicious.
ショーの迫力と言いますか、それほど感動する物ではありませんでしたが、
ダンサーの方々と写真を撮ったり、触れ合う時間があったので、全体的には楽しかったです。
宿泊地がコナで、ルアウショーを見ながら食事がしたいという希望があるならば、十分参加する価値はあると思います。
料理については、おいしいと思える物が少なかったです。
Dear Suematsu,
Thank you for attending the luau show. I sincerely apologize for the delay in my response.
I hope you enjoyed the Polynesian culture, but I feel that we could have delivered something more heartfelt in both the cuisine and the show’s performance.
Thank you for your feedback. We would love for you to join us again at the luau show! With gratitude and apologies.
Suematsu 様
ルアウショーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。すぐにお返事ができず大変申し訳ございませんでした。
楽しくポリネシア文化を見ていただけたかと思いますが、お料理にもショーの演出にも
もうすこし心に届くものをおとどけできればと感じました。
ご意見をいただきありがとうございます。また是非ルアウショーにお越しください☆ 感謝とお詫びを込めて

I feel that the water's transparency is low. However, the children seemed satisfied as they were able to ride in a submarine and see fish and a sunken ship. I thought it might be short, but it seemed to be enough for the kids.
海の透明度が低い気がします。
でも子どもも潜水艦に乗って、魚や沈没船を見れて満足してそうでした。短いかなと思いましたが、子どもには十分そうでした。

It's not just about watching the show and eating Hawaiian food at the buffet; activities before the show and meal, such as hula, poi ball, lei making, and tattoos, are also enjoyable. It feels like you can experience Hawaiian culture with all your senses. However, everything is in English (and spoken very quickly), and there are very few Japanese guests. If you want to fully enjoy the luau, I, with my middle school level English skills, struggled to keep up. Ah, I wish I had better English skills!
ショーを観て、ビュッフェでハワイアンフードを食べて〜というだけではなく、フラ、ポイボール、レイメイキング、タトゥー等々、ショーや食事の前のアクティビティーが楽しい。ハワイの文化を五感で体験できるといった感じ。ただやはり全て英語(しかも超早口)、日本人のお客さんもとても少ない。ルアウをフルに楽しもうと思ったら、英語力中学生レベルの私は、ついて行くのに精一杯でした。あぁぁ英語力が欲しい!
Dear Seako,
We are very pleased that you enjoyed not only the luau show but also other activities. We strive to deliver Aloha with all our hearts and bodies, and we sincerely apologize for the lack of Japanese guidance and appreciate the great effort you made. It is also our challenge to create a stage that Japanese guests can enjoy, so we would like to discuss your valuable feedback further.
Please do come and visit us again when you are in Hawaii Island. We feel like family during your second visit. We are truly looking forward to your return, Seako.
Seako様
ルアウショーのほかアクティビティもお楽しみいただけてとても嬉しくおもっております。
心と体いっぱいでAlohaをお届けできるよう努めておりますが、日本語のご案内がない分大変な努力をしていただききましたこと
深くお詫びを感謝を申し上げます。日本人のお客様にもお楽しみいただけるステージになることは
私達の課題でもありますので、貴重なご意見としてまた話し合っていきたいと思います。
また是非ハワイ島にきたら、会いにいらしてください。私達も2度目のお越しはOhana(家族)のような気分になります。
Seako様のお越しを心からお待ちしております。

The cruise was excellent. We saw dolphins on the way out and on the way back. When we anchored we had about 2.5 hours to snorkel, jump off the boat and play with the various water equipment. The kids particularly enjoyed using the paddle board. The breakfast and lunch was great and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this trip.
