Strolling through the spacious grounds of the Hilton, we made our way to the venue. As the sun set, we enjoyed the gentle movements of hula dancing and the impressive luau show, immersing ourselves in Hawaii's traditional culture. The buffet offered a wide variety of dishes, and I thought the seasoning was quite good. Although the venue was large, we had reserved premium seats, allowing us to see the dancers' movements up close.
ヒルトンの広い敷地を散策しながら会場へ。
日暮れとともに、優しい動きのフラダンス、迫力のルアウショーが続き、ハワイの伝統文化を堪能しました。バイキング料理もメニューが豊富で、味付けもよかったと思います。
広い会場でしたが、プレミアムシートを予約していたので、ダンサーの動きなどを間近で見ることができました。

We had a wonderful time at the Smith Luau. The site is amazing and utterly beautiful; the connection to Kauai history is impressive and impeccable. We enjoyed visiting and getting to know the other people at our table, even though they were strangers. The food was fantastic, varied and perfectly prepared. We loved the fact that nothing felt rushed or skimpy. The presentation in the theater was exceptionally well performed and really captured the variety of island cultures that have created this Pacific paradise. There was absolutely nothing about this evening that I would have made any different.

I went with two of my other friends were about 25 yrs old. It was our first time in Hawaii and were skeptics of the luau, but we were in Hawaii might as well experience it. And it was great !!! The price was a little steep especially with the Canadian exchange rate. We got complimentary Mai tai at the door received our beautiful lei and shown our seats. The venue was amazing!! There was a lot of activity but we opt for getting drinks with our cards and watched the sun set!!! The food was great could go easy on the salt tho but the show was awesome I didn't think I would like it as much as I did. And the stars were out and overall all we had a blast. Added side note the dancers are veerrrryy good looking like wow!

Went to my first luau and I have to say, it was a good experience. The staff are as friendly as can be and the performances were amazing. They are very much involved with the crowd making it a special experience and I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Food Buffett was also good, and my friends and I were approached with beautiful lays at the entrance and the best part was we all got 2 drink tickets with the packages we purchased online.

First of all, the car ride to the Polynesian Cultural Center was super cold! The air conditioning was too strong, and I asked others to adjust it, but... When we arrived at the Polynesian Cultural Center, a Japanese exchange student guided us, and they were very pleasant and likable. They provided simultaneous interpretation during the show, and the stories while we were on the boat were interesting and kept us engaged. The buffet had a limited selection, and I thought, "Well, this is what it is..." However, the night show was powerful and moving. We had standard seats, but there were no issues with visibility. After the show, I was worried about finding the bus in the parking lot, but I found it right away. I thought it might have been nice to stay a little longer.
まず、ポリネシア文化センターに行くまでの車内が超寒かったです!
エアコンが効きすぎていて、他の方が調整してくれるようお願いしてましたが・・・
ポリネシア文化センターに着くと、日本人の留学生が案内してくれるのですが、とても感じがよく好感が持てました。
ショーで話していることは同時通訳してくれるし、船に乗っているときの話はおもしろく、飽きることがありませんでした。
ビュッフェは品数が少なく、まあこんなものかと思いましたが…
ナイトショーは迫力があり感動しました。
スタンダード席でしたが、見え方には特に問題ありませんでした。
ショーが終わった後、駐車場のバスが見つかるか心配でしたが、すぐ見つかりました。
もう少し長く滞在しても良かったかなと思いました。
Thank you, farewell!

I participated in the afternoon tour. I was sound asleep on the bus as usual (laughs).
In the afternoon, we toured the park with a Japanese university student guide. The sun was quite strong, and since we would be walking a lot, it’s better not to carry heavy things. I think it’s more enjoyable to join a tour rather than just wandering around, as we got to hear various stories about the Polynesian countries. The show from Tonga was lively, with a Korean person really getting into it. It seemed like the English wasn’t getting through, and their funny movements made me laugh a lot.
For lunch, I chose the luau, which was a buffet of Polynesian cuisine. There was quite a variety, and it was fun. They even had a whole roasted pig! I selected desserts that weren’t too sweet, and I was satisfied with the meal. While enjoying the food, we could also enjoy dances on stage and participate in audience interaction dances. It might be fun for newlyweds! Couples from newlyweds to those who have been married for a long time came up to celebrate, greeting everyone and doing a simple dance... it was a wonderful show.
The evening show was full of excitement, and it felt like watching a performance by the Shiki Theatre Company; it was enjoyable. Some people got tired and fell asleep, but the fire show was amazing, and I’m glad I went to see it!
昼からのツアーに参加していきました。バスは相変わらず爆睡で(笑)
午後について、ガイドの日本人の大学生さんと一緒に園内を回ります。結構日差しもあったし、歩くので、重いものは持たない方がいいですね。ポリネシアンの国々ついていろんなお話も聞けるので、ふらっといくよりツアーの方が楽しそうだなと思います。トンゴのショーは韓国人の人がのりのりで、英語が伝わっていないのか、面白い動きをして、すごく笑いました。
ご飯はルアウにしました。ポリネシアンの料理のビュッフェです。結構いろいろあって楽しかったです。豚の丸焼きもでてきましたよ!
デザートも甘すぎずのものを選び、満足いく料理でした。料理いただきながら、ステージで踊りや、お客さん参加型のダンスなどが楽しめる感じです。新婚さんはいくと楽しいかも!ご夫婦新婚さんから熟年の方まで、お祝いで参加している方が前にでて、挨拶と簡単なダンスをするという。。。すてきなショーでした。
夜のショーは迫力満点で、劇団四季とか見ている感じで、楽しかったです。
疲れて寝てしまう人もいたけれど。。ファイヤーショーもすごかったし、見に行ってよかったです!
Thank you, Koko. Goodbye!

It was very powerful and moving! I highly recommend it as a finale for your trip to Hawaii.
I signed up for the deluxe course early on. The difference between the deluxe and standard courses is the dining and the seating for the show. I definitely recommend the deluxe course!
The meal is served buffet-style, and even if you get tired of barbecue, the roast steak is really delicious. Also, the fried chicken tasted a lot like Kentucky Fried Chicken and was tasty.
The seating for the show is chosen randomly, but I was lucky enough to be in the second row from the front.
The show is composed of English and a local language that I couldn't quite understand, but you could sense what they were trying to express. The fire dance was very powerful, and even from the second row, I could feel the heat of the flames. The dancing was very synchronized, making it enjoyable to watch and listen to. I highly recommend it!
とても迫力があり、感動しました!ハワイ旅行のフィナーレにめちゃんこおすすめです。
私は早い時期にデラックスコースを申し込みました。デラックスコースとスタンダードコースの違いは、食事とショーの観客席になります。絶対デラックスコースの方がおすすめです!
食事はバイキング形式ですが、(バーベキューに飽きていても)ロースステーキがとても美味しいです。また、フライドチキンはケンタッキーみたいな味で美味しかったです。
ショーの席は勝手に選択されてしまいますが、運良く前から2列目でした。
ショーは英語と現地の訳のわからない言語で構成されていますが、感覚的に何を表現したいのかかがわかるものでした。また、ファイヤーダンスがとても迫力があり、前から2列目でもその火の熱さがわかりました。ダンスもとても揃っていて、見て聞いて楽しめるものです。めちゃんこおすすめです!

We really enjoyed the food and the show. Great costumes and history of the culture. If you're staying at the Royal Kona Hotel, you can see the show for free from the poolside. But the food was delicious and it was fun being included on stage and in the show itself. We're not drinkers, so the value for money wasn't there for us, but we still truly enjoyed ourselves. We brought our three kids with us and they had a lot of fun as well. It was entertaining for everyone!

This time, I participated from noon. As soon as I arrived, the canoe show started, and I was already overwhelmed from that point. Is it held once a day? I think this show is a must-see.
After that, we toured each village while the guide explained things to us. The guide was a student, but he answered our questions accurately (though he did forget some things occasionally, which was funny), and it was very educational. The experiences that showcased the characteristics of the region were also enjoyable.
For the meal afterward, I chose the deluxe option, and I was satisfied. The banana ice cream was delicious. And finally, it was time for the show. We were in the second row, right in the middle, so the intensity was incredible, and the energy came through directly.
There was a proper storyline, and it was truly an impressive show.
今回はお昼から参加しました。着いてからすぐにカヌーショーが始まりましたが、すでにそこから圧倒されました。1日に1回なのでしょうか?このショーは見た方がいいと思います。
その後は、ガイドさんに説明されながら、それぞれの村を周ります。ガイドさんは学生さんだそうですが、聞いたことにも的確に答えてくれ(たまにド忘れしちゃったこともありましたが笑)、とても勉強になりました。地域の特徴が出ている体験も、楽しかったです。
その後のお食事は、デラックスにしたので満足でした。バナナアイスが美味しかった

After reading some experiences, I wanted to see this show when I went to Hawaii. Since I wanted to enjoy it to the fullest, I made a reservation for VIP seats. The experience started with dinner, and then we leisurely watched the show. Those who reserved VIP seats were able to enjoy cocktails and snacks before dinner. I didn't have high expectations for the food, but the steak was delicious, and the mashed potatoes with truffles were very tasty. The content of the show was also very fulfilling, and I had a great time until the end. I definitely want to go again when I visit Hawaii.
