伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー　＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ＞

Stuck to the stage. ステージにクギ付け

Reviewed by: フクスケ

During my last trip to Hawaii, I was so moved by the show before the Hilton fireworks that this time I wanted to see it up close, and I also wanted to entertain my friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, so I made a reservation.

The reviews beforehand weren't great, but we were very satisfied with the show.

The table we were assigned to had few Asians, but the foreigners sitting next to us were very friendly. The conch shell contest was also fun, as we formed teams at each table, which created a great sense of unity. By the way, we watched from the general seating, and it was more than enough.

The stage show was thrilling, and the female MC's storytelling was easy for Japanese people to understand.

Once the show starts, you become glued to the stage, so you won't have time to go for seconds at the buffet or even focus on eating. I recommend eating well before the show begins.

前回のハワイ旅行でヒルトンの花火の前にやっていたショーを見て
感動したので、今回はすぐそばで見たいと思ったのと初ハワイの友人を楽しませたくて
予約しました。

事前の口コミはあんまりでしたが、私たちには大満足のショーでした。

私たちの案内されたテーブルは、アジアの人が少なかったのですが
隣になった外国人の皆さんがとてもフレンドリーに接してくれて
ほら貝のコンテストも、テーブル毎にチームになって
その一体感も良かったです。
ちなみに、一般席での観賞でしたが十分でした。

迫力満点のステージショーやMCの女性の話術も
日本人にもわかりやすくかったです。

一度、ショーが始まるとステージにクギ付けになってしまうので
バイキング料理をお替わりに行ったり、食事なんてしてられなく
なるので、ショーが始まる前に、しっかり食べておくことを
お勧めします。

ポリネシア カルチャー センター　ハワイ最大の伝統ルアウショー！ショーのみまたはビュッフェ・ディナー付きから選べるプラン＜送迎付きプランあり＞

You might want to see it at least once when you come to Hawaii. ハワイに来たら一度は見るべきかも

Reviewed by: M.M.

You often see Polynesian shows and fire dances on the southern islands, but the show by the poolside was definitely different in terms of intensity, number of performers, and scale.

With a large stage that can accommodate around 3,000 people, over 100 performers take turns telling a single story through dance and song. The highlight was the fire dance, which was so powerful that the heat of the flames reached the audience.

On the tour before the show, which visited the islands of Polynesia, a Japanese guide carefully explained each culture, making it a valuable experience in its own right.

ポリネシアンショーとか、ファイアーダンスは南の島でよく見ますが、プールサイドでやるショーとは迫力、人数、規模が断然違いました。

３千人ぐらい入る大型のステージで100人以上の出演者が入れ代り立ち代り一つの物語をダンスと歌で綴っていきます。圧巻は、ファイヤーダンス。客席まで炎の熱さが届くど迫力でした。

ショーの前のポリネシアの島々を尋ねるツアーでは、日本人ガイドさんが丁寧にそれぞれの文化を説明してくれて、これはこれで貴重な体験でした。

The Polynesian tour was great. This was our 2nd time going, but our grandson's first. He had a great time. We also upgrade with tour and our guide was fabulous,he knew his history of the islands. The luau and the food was good, we didn't try any poa. The students there serving were very helpful and good service. The best of all was the night show, loved it. Bus was on time. Our tour guide made it interesting on our way to the Polynesian Cultural center. Great tour to take. Though it was a long day, it's worth it.

Enjoyed the Polynesian dance show for the first time in 35 years!!! 35年ぶりのポリネシアン・ダンスショーを堪能！！！

Reviewed by: Ｊ＆J

In November 1979, I visited Hawaii on my honeymoon and saw a Polynesian dance show. This time, I participated in the Twilight Standard Plan with my spouse, as both families were visiting for our son's Hawaiian wedding. Although my English isn't great, I was moved by the impressive and easy-to-understand dance show. The final fire dance was the best.

Unfortunately, the buffet-style meal was not particularly delicious, and the one-way trip took about 1 hour and 30 minutes, which was quite far.

1979年11月、新婚旅行で訪れたハワイで見たポリネシアン・ダンスショーを、今回、息子のハワイアンウエディングに両家親族ともども訪れてたことから、懐かしくてトワイライト・スタンダードプランに夫婦で参加しました。英語はだめですが、見応えのあるわかりやすいダンスショーに感動しました。最後の火の踊りは最高です。
残念なのは、決しておいしいと言えないバイキングスタイルの食事と片道1時間30分と遠いことですかね。

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＞

Experiential luau. 体験型ルアウ。

Reviewed by: Saeko

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！

The show was amazing! ショーは最高でした！

Reviewed by: momi

I went to enjoy the meal and the show. The show was really great, and I was moved! The dinner was a buffet style, but there weren't many options, which was a bit disappointing...

The tour staff only takes you to the park, and there is no accompaniment inside the park, so you have free time. However, there are staff members who speak Japanese inside the park, so those who don't understand English can feel at ease.

食事とショーを楽しみに行きました。
ショーはとっても良くて、感動しました！
ディナーがビュッフェタイプだったのですが、あまり種類が無く
ちょっと期待はずれ。。。

ツアースタッフはパークに送るだけで、パーク内の同伴は無く、自由行動になります。
ですが、パーク内は日本語が話せるスタッフがいるので、英語が分からない方でも安心ですね。

We have attended luaus on other islands and the show at this luau was not impressive. The grounds were amazing , beautiful picture opportunities ....and the food was delicious!!! We were not impressed with the show. The seating was stadium seating which was extremely uncomfortable. The show was not interactive with audience......I believe the "host" was pre-recorded?

Again.....we've been to other islands and have been to much better.

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Legendary Waikiki Landmark Event

Reviewed by: Marisa

The Aha 'Aina luau provides the ultimate luxury luau experience in the comfort and proximity of Waikiki. Located in the famous Pink Palace of the Pacific, Aha 'Aina doesn't disappoint. The views and outdoor seating are a beautiful backdrop to the evening. The meal is served with musical entertainment and a historical introduction of how the guitar and ukulele were introduced to the islands. This is a great luau for those who love great music and tasty food! The table service is wonderful and the food is excellent. The history of Waikiki comes alive on stage as the dancers take you through time from when Kamehameha united the islands, to the Royal Hawaiian hotel's first opening in 1927. Get ready for a treat, because this is not only a feast for your taste buds, but your eyes and ears as well!

Experience Hawaiian spirits at the Green Room Dinner Show. グリーンルームディナーショーでハワイアンスピリッツを体感

Reviewed by: ゴンタ

We are a couple who visits Hawaii for about two weeks every year. For dinner, we usually go to restaurants we always visit or those listed in coupon books, but I remembered how much we enjoyed the cocktail show at the Rock-a-Hula show two years ago, so this year we decided to upgrade and participate in the Green Room & Dinner. We were warmly welcomed by the staff with smiles at the VIP entrance and guided to the Green Room backstage, where we started with a welcome drink of champagne and light snacks. I remember spending a relaxing time while enjoying a fresh fruit platter. After a polite greeting from the manager, we had a great time taking photos with Lady Gaga. Then, the manager began a backstage tour, showing us the dressing rooms, costumes, and stage equipment that we wouldn't normally see, which left my wife very impressed! Meanwhile, I was thrilled to see her enjoying herself... feeling grateful for participating. The staff preparing for the show were friendly, exchanging casual greetings, and at the end, the manager took a commemorative photo on stage. After that, we were guided to our seats in the front row of the VIP area in the center of the stage! I was thrilled, and the Hawaiian gourmet dinner was beautifully presented, rivaling even top restaurants, with each dish being delicious. The aloha spirit welcomed guests without fail! I was once again impressed. The best entertainment unfolded on stage, with Elvis's fun talk bringing laughter and emotion, leaving me deeply moved. I believe that experiencing it firsthand will give you the true thrill more than reading my post. For those visiting Hawaii for the first time and returning guests... there is no doubt that all guests will receive wonderful hospitality and a fantastic stage. Among them, the Green Room Dinner & Show offers a five-star experience that exceeds cost performance.

毎年、２週間ほどハワイを訪問しているリピーター夫婦です。ディナーはいつも立ち寄っているレストランやクーポンブックに掲載されているレストランなどで済ませるのですが、２年前ロックアフラショーのカクテルショーに参加し大変エンジョイ出来たのを思い出し、今年はグレードアップでグリーンルーム＆ディナーに参加しました。VIPエントランスからスタッフの笑顔の歓迎を受け、バックステージにあるグリーンルームに案内され、ウエルカムドリンクのシャンパンと軽食でスタートしました。新鮮なフルーツの盛り合わせなど頂きながらゆったりとした時間が経っていったのを記憶しています。また、支配人から丁寧な挨拶の後、レディガガさんの登場で一緒に写真を撮ってもらったり楽しい時間を過ごしました。その後、支配人によるバックステージツアーが始まり普段見ることのできない楽屋や衣装、ステージ装置など案内と丁寧な説明に妻も大感激！その横で私は妻が楽しんでいる様子を見ながら・・・参加してよかったと感激？していました。ショーの準備をしているスタッフもフレンドリーで気軽に挨拶を交わし、最後はステージ上で支配人が記念撮影？その後客席に案内して頂きました。ステージ中央のVIP専用エリアの最前列！で感激、ハワイアングルメディナーは一流のレストランにも負けないくらいの素晴しい盛り付けで一品一品美味しい料理でした。抜かりなくゲストを歓迎するアロハスピリッツ！またまた感激。ステージ上では最高のエンタテイメントが繰り広げられ、プレスリーの楽しいトークで笑いあり感動あり、またまた大感激。私の投稿で読むより実際に体験していただければ本当の感激を実感して頂けると思います。ハワイ訪問が初めての方、リピーターの方々・・・すべてのゲストに素敵なおもてなしと素晴しいステージであることは間違いありません。その中でもグリーンルーム・ディナー＆ショーはコストパフォーマンス以上の体験をさせてくれる五つ星のツアーです。

The dance in the show was really wonderful, and I was happy to see my favorite hula under the starry sky♪

I felt that waiting until it started was a bit of a waste of time. However, once the show began, it was great. Among them, Michael Jackson looked so much like the real thing with his mannerisms and gestures, and both his singing and dancing were excellent. "Over the Rainbow" was incredibly beautiful and moving. Lady Gaga also did her best. Elvis even came down to the audience to shake hands and throw out leis, which was a nice touch.

始まるまでに待ったされたのがチョット時間が勿体にいと感じました。でも、ショーが始まると良かったです。中でもマイケル、ジャクソンが段々見ているうちに本物の様に見える位癖とかしぐさがそっくりで歌も踊りも良かったです。オーバー、ザ、レインボーはすごく綺麗にはもって感動しました。レディー、ガガも頑張ってました。プレスリーも会場に下りてきて握手したりレイをかけたりサービス的でした。

I participated in the "Deluxe" course for the first time during the 50th anniversary campaign. The food was just okay, but the pineapple was very delicious since it was in season. The guide encouraged us to eat as soon as we arrived, and it was true that it gradually got crowded, leading to a line for entry.

I was able to watch the show from the fourth row, and the performers' energy was conveyed really well, making it a lot of fun. The final fire dance was also wonderful. The ice during the intermission was available for $5.

If it were a little closer to Waikiki...
