We had a very nice time at this luau. The setting was beautiful, the food delicious, plenty of drink available with fast service when refilling, and friendly staff. Something we really liked about this luau compared to one we attended on Maui is that this is a much smaller crowd which was very conducive when refilling beverages and getting your food at the buffet.

It was a wonderful show!
I feel like once is enough, but from start to finish, they portrayed the flow of human life through dance, and the seriousness of the dancers really came through.
I wonder if everyone is a student?
Keep up the good work!
素晴らしいショーでした^^
1度で十分かなーという感じなのですが
最初から最後まで人間の生まれれてからの流れをダンスとともに
演技されていてダンサーたちの真剣さも伝わりました。

I read in reviews that there would be a long line, so I arrived more than 30 minutes early, but there was already quite a queue. I was a bit worried because it was drizzling, but by the time we were allowed in, it had cleared up, which was a relief. Once seated, all the announcements were in English, so I didn't understand much and just followed the movements of others. At first, we passed by the food line to get drinks like Mai Tai and fruit punch, while others were happily chatting, dancing, and checking out the whole roasted pig. I couldn't join in the conversation due to my limited English, which left me feeling a bit bored. About an hour later, everyone finally started to get their meals, so the two of us went to get ours. There were local dishes like ahi poke and poi, making for quite an enjoyable meal. The luau show that finally started featured a person dressed as King Kamehameha and various dances, and I thought it was well done, just as the reviews had said. As an impatient Japanese person, I felt the pace was a bit slow, but I came to understand that it allowed for a more leisurely enjoyment. I believe it was a show worth the price.
クチコミでかなり並ぶと書いてあったので受付時間より30分以上早く行ったけれど既にかなりの行列になっていた。少し雨がぱらついていたので心配だったけれど入場の頃にはなんとかやんでホッ。席についてからの案内は全て英語なのでよく分からないまま他の人を動きを見ながら最初は食べ物の並んだところを通り過ぎてマイタイとかフルーツポンチなどの飲み物を取りにいき、他の人は楽しくおしゃべりしたり踊ったり豚の丸焼の見学にいったり楽しんでいるけど、こちらはカタコトの英語で会話には加われず、暇を持てあましてしまった。1時間くらいしてからやっとみんなが食事を取り始めたので、私たち二人も取りにいった。アヒポキやポイなど郷土料理もあってなかなか楽しい食事だった。やっと始まったルアウショーはカメハメハ大王に扮した人の入場や各種のダンスなど評判どおりなかなかよくできていたと思う。せっかちな日本人にとってはあまりにも流れが悠長だと感じたが、それはそれでゆっくり楽しめるということでもあると納得。値段に見合ったショーだと思う。
Dear Okeichan,
Thank you for your wonderful message.
I sincerely appreciate your enjoyment of the Hawaiian style.
I hope we can meet again. With Aloha.

The experience started with a pick-up, and we got to see a wonderful show on-site. Above all, my two-year-old child was quietly captivated. This made me realize just how amazing the show truly is.
We opted for the standard plan. The food had a lot of meat, and the taste was decent. The show featured dances from Hawaii and other Polynesian cultures presented in a storytelling format. Personally, as someone who practices hula dancing, I was truly moved to see how each dance resembled those from different countries.
The staff's service was excellent, and I was very satisfied! I would love to bring my parents next time.
送迎から始まり、現地での素晴らしいショーを見させて頂きました。
何より2歳の子供がおとなしく見入っていた。
そのことでもやはり素晴らしいショーなんだなと思いました。
今回はスタンダードプランでした。
料理は肉が多めという感じです。味はそこそこでした。
ショーはハワイをはじめ、ポリネシアの踊りが物語形式で出てきます。
個人的にもフラダンスをやっているので、各踊りがどの国の踊りと似ているのかという観点でみていると本当に感動しました。
スタッフの方の対応もよく満足!
次は両親でもつれてきたいですね。

The dinner at Gaylord's was wonderful. Later we were greeted by our torch carriers, who were friendly and informative. Pulu (Sean) was especially attentive and made us feel welcome. The very best part of the evening was the show and the story they told. It gave us a true feeling of 'being there' as the Polynesean's made their journey to Hawai'i. This was truly a gift from the actors & dancers in the show.

This time, we participated as a three-generation family, including small children. Since it was early April, the rooftop of the hotel was quite cool, and with the wind, it felt cold even with a light jacket. Not just us, but those around us also seemed to be feeling the chill. We took a commemorative photo at the entrance, and it was up to us whether to purchase it later. After being seated, we were served juice or cocktails, and then we had to wait in a long line to get food from the buffet before the show, which was quite tiring. Since the children's and adults' food stations were in different places, I had to line up for the children's food first, and then go to the adults' station, which was a bit of a hassle. Aside from the food, the show featured hula dancing, male dancers, and some active performances with fire, making it quite fulfilling. After the show, there was a farewell from the cast at the exit, where we could take photos. I thought it was a nice opportunity to see such a well-organized show up close.
今回は小さな子供を含む3世代での参加でした。4月のはじめということもあってか、ホテルの屋上はかなり涼しく、風もあり羽織ものを持っていても寒かったです。私たちだけではなく周りも寒そうにしておりました。入り口で記念写真をとり、後で購入するかは、自由でした。席に着くジューズかカクテルを持って来てもらい、すこしして、ショーの前にビュフェの料理で取りに行くのにかなり並び、食事にありつくまで、疲れてしまいました。子供用と大人用の食事を取りにいくのが違う所だったので、子供の所に並んで、、、それから大人の所に並んでと、いった感じで、めんどうでした。食事をのぞけば、ショーはフラダンスや、男性のダンス、そして、男性が火を使ったアクティブなものもあり、なかなか充実しておりました。ショーが終わってから出口のところでは、キャストのかたのお見送りがあり、そこでは、写真撮影ができました。身近でこのようなまとまったショーを見るにはいいのではとおもいました。

Booked an "Ambassador Package" as it seemed to offer a comprehensive itinerary and very glad we did as it took care of all the planning necessary to view the centre in a day.
The prime rib and seafood buffet was as good as expected considering the amount of guests it was catering for. The different cultural villages provided a good mix of information and humour as not to overload visitors brains. Guest involvement in traditional customs such as weaving and drumming was fun.
The "Ha" show was excellent, keeping the audience fully focused and entertained.
I would recommend the travel inclusive package from Waikiki. Smooth bus operation and after a full day, an opportunity to relax after the event. The guide on the outward journey was entertaining and informative.
What really made this a day to remember was our centre guide "Tori". Through all our years travelling the world, she was beyond doubt the most friendly, informative and caring person we have ever encountered in this role.

I visited after more than 20 years. The Japanese student guide, YURI, was very energetic and it was fun until the end. Since I booked the deluxe option, I was able to watch an amazing show from the best seats, and I was truly moved. This is a show that you must see when you go to Hawaii (laughs).
If I had to mention a downside, the buffet-style meal was delicious, but each portion was quite large (the pieces of meat were huge). As a big eater, I was disappointed that I couldn't try all the varieties. Even so, I think it's a wonderful activity.
20数年ぶりに訪れました。ガイドの日本人留学生のYURIさんはテンションが高く、最後までノリノリで楽しかったです。デラックスで申し込みましたので最高の席で圧巻のショーを観ることが出来て本当に感動いたしました。このショーはハワイに行ったら必ず観ないといけません(笑)

It was my first time on the Big Island, so I decided to immerse myself in the Hawaiian atmosphere by participating. There were hardly any Japanese people, and I didn't understand much of what was being said, but I enjoyed the show itself. The meal was BBQ, which was decent, but the portions were generous, and the drinks were all-you-can-drink, with the Mai Tai being delicious. Since we participated on the first day we arrived, my child was half asleep, but it seems they were satisfied with the meal. The luau show offers a great taste of Hawaiian culture, so I recommend participating at least once.
初めてのハワイ島でしたので、まずはハワイアンな雰囲気に浸ろうと参加しました。ほとんど日本人はいませんでしたし、言っていることもよくわかりませんでしたが、ショー自体は楽しめました。食事はBBQなのでそれなりでしたが、ボリュームは満点、飲み物も飲み放題で、マイタイがおいしかったです。着いた初日に参加したので子供は半分寝ていましたが、食事は満足したようです。ルアウショーはハワイ情緒が十分味わえますので、一度は参加をお勧めします。

The classic luau show. The food is surprisingly good, but the content of the show itself is quite ordinary and traditional. If you don't mind the number of meals or dancers, the free Aloha Friday show at the Hyatt every Friday might be sufficient. On the day I attended, due to the weather, it was held indoors and there was no fire dance. That might be one reason it felt overpriced. There was no clear notice about the change of location, which left a somewhat unkind impression.
定番のルアウショー。食事が意外に美味しいので良いが、ショーの内容自体は昔ながらで極めて普通。食事やダンサーの人数に拘らなければ、毎週金曜日にハイアットでやってるアロハフライデーの無料ショーで十分かも。参加した日は天候の都合か屋内での開催でファイヤーダンスは無し。それも割高に感じた理由かも。場所が変更になった旨の分かりやすい案内もなく、ちょっと不親切な印象を受けた。

My wife, 11 month old daughter, and I got the chance to attend the Chief’s Luau at Sea Life Park, under the Paradise Package. I usually don’t expect much from the food and drinks at these sorts of events, but I was pleasantly surprised. The food was very good, especially considering that it is a buffet, and the drinks were not watered down. In regards to the show, it was absolutely fantastic. The cast performed dances from the various Polynesian Islands and the entire time, the Chief is telling jokes (the jokes contain a bit of innuendo) and making sure everyone is having a good time. There is a reason Chief Sielu performs all over the island, practically every day: not only is he a very skilled performer, but he is absolutely hilarious. I will definitely be coming again. Please note that the cast does pull members of the audience for different parts of the show, however, it is not the run-of-the-mill “let’s all dance at the end” type thing, they are actually part of the festivities.

On the day of the show, it started with Presley, Steven Tyler, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and then Presley again. To be honest, aside from Steven Tyler, the performances were a bit underwhelming, and I felt that the impersonators in Japan were better at portraying Michael and Madonna. It seems that the performers change depending on the day, but overall, the show had an enjoyable structure, and I was able to see Polynesian dance at both the opening and closing, so it felt like the content of the show was worth the price.
当日は、プレスリー、スティーブンタイラー、マイケルジャクソン、マドンナ、プレスリーの順番で、ショーが始まりました。
正直、スティーブンタイラー以外は微妙で、マイケルやマドンナに関しては日本でモノマネしている人の方が上手かった様な気もします。
日によって出演者が異なる様ですが、全体的にショーとしては楽しめる構成となっており、ポリネシアンダンスもオープニングとエンディングで見れましたので、金額に見合ったショーの内容であったように思えます。
Thank you very much for attending the Legend in Concert. We are delighted that you enjoyed the show. The performers are usually the same every day. We look forward to welcoming you again.

The show was very entertaining, we had so much fun! The staff were very friendly and caring. Since I have small children; they were always checking on us, made sure that my kids are entertained as well! The dancers were amazing too!
I brought my entire family with me, my husband, and our children (ages 8, 6, and 12mos), at first, I had to think twice if I really should bring them to this kind of show but since they love music and they’re on their spring break too, I took them there anyway…and I never regret it!
WOW! The show was outstanding! Michael Jackson had the real moves and never failed our expectation, it was so real! Steven Tyler looks exactly like Steven, performing in front of our eyes and his entrance to the stage was the best when he flew in a harness to the stage. We absolutely loved their performances that even my kids were dancing too! This show is definitely a great place to take your stress away!
Dinner buffet at the Tree Top Lanai are very delicious as well.

I signed up for the half-day course. Each group had a guide who provided explanations. However, it seemed that we couldn't visit all the locations in just half a day, so we didn't get to see everything. I wonder if those who signed up individually were able to see the places they liked? I wasn't quite sure about that.
The final show was, needless to say, spectacular! (^^)

The luau was really good.. We went as a family and everyone enjoyed it. I would recommend that you request a middle table. We made our reservation (premium seats) 6 months previously and were seated at the far right table. Some of the people with regular seats had better views than our seats. Although we enjoyed it a lot it would of been nice to have the center tables to the stage especially for the premium price we paid.
The food was great as well as the service

We were greeted by our guide who made sure we were in time for all of the activities. She would have us leave a little early to get to shows that were especially popular so we could get good seats. When it was time for dinner, we opted for the prime dining instead of the luau, so I cannot comment on the luau. After dinner we had a few minutes before going to the show. The show was a fabulous way to end the evening. It was a history of Hawaii that sort of reminded me of the Broadway play, "The Lion King". I would definitely take guests who had never been to the Polynesian Culture Center. I doubt that my husband and I would go again unless we wanted to try the luau. Not because it wasn't enjoyable, but because we have already experienced it. About the staff: they were wonderful! Our guides were so protective over us that it was hard to get away from the group to buy a soda! There is no alcohol served here which suited us fine.

The information about the locations within the hotel is unclear, so it's best to arrive early. The show is a mix of Hawaiian, Polynesian, and Micronesian performances, but it feels like a basic dinner show you would find in Hawaii. There are few staff members for the show, and after visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center in the north, it feels lacking. The meal is not as luxurious as one might imagine. The price is appropriate for the food and the show.
I must say again, the guidance boards for the locations are inadequate, and I couldn't find the venue!

I arrived about 30 minutes late, but I was happy that the staff welcomed me warmly.
The meal was a buffet, and there were a lot of carbohydrate-based dishes. Since the show started while I was eating, I couldn't really eat too much. The drinks included two tickets, and I enjoyed some beer and wine. They were cold and delicious. There were also cakes and coffee. I think it would have been nice to have some "Hawaiian-style" gravy sauce hamburgers as well.
The show was enjoyable for adults. I couldn't help but notice the dancers' inner muscles... However, for elementary school students, the entire show was in English, and they seemed to not understand much. Well, I guess that's due to their lack of study...
Since I was staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, there was little travel involved, and there was a fun photo booth with the dancers on the way back, making for an enjoyable dinner.
In February, the outdoor nights can be a bit chilly, so a jacket is a must.
30分程遅れて行きましたが、スタッフの方々も気持ちよく対応していただいて嬉しかった。
食事 いわゆるビュッフェです。炭水化物系が多く、食べてる間にショーが始まるのであんまりガツガツ食べる事が出来ませんでした。飲み物もチケット2枚がついていてビールやワインをいただきました。冷えてておいしかったですよ。ケーキやコーヒーもありました。もうちょっと「ザ・ハワイ的」なグレービーソース系ハンバーグとかがあっても良かったかな。
ショー 大人が見るには楽しいショーでした。ダンサーのインナーマッスルが気になって、気になって・・・。ただ小学生的には全編英語で、何やらわからんかったようです。まぁ勉強不足がいかんのでしょうけどもね・・・。
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたので、移動も少なく、帰りにダンサーとの記念設営ブースもあり楽しいディナーになりました。

It was my first time in Hawaii, so I thought it would be nice to see a Hawaiian show. I got good seats, but the place I was directed to was far from the stage. In the end, it was fine because I had children with me, but it wasn't until halfway through the show that the staff finally realized their mistake and spoke to us, yet we didn't move. The stage was clearly visible from anywhere, so I think it wouldn't be a problem to sit anywhere. The food was as I expected—neither particularly good nor bad. I was captivated by the powerful dancing of the performers in the show.

Our first luau was enjoyable for all seven family members!
Before participating, I thought it might be too expensive considering the cost performance, but overall, I was satisfied with the experience.
This is just my personal opinion, but I’ll provide some detailed information for future participants since there isn’t much written about it.
We drove to the Hilton venue with a rental car, and both self-parking and valet parking are available. I arrived late at 5:15 PM, so I opted for valet parking to save time. I was prepared to pay a relatively high parking fee even with validation (discount or free parking). However, when I picked up my car after the event, valet parking was free! Just remember to tip the valet. I recommend valet parking for those using rental cars. When you drop off your car, they will ask if you are a guest or a visitor, so just say "Visitor, luau show," and you’ll be fine even if your English isn’t great! Don’t forget to get the validation sticker from the staff after the show. You can shop in the Hilton without worrying about parking fees after the show.
Since I arrived late, there was no waiting time to enter! If you’re late, you’ll go directly to the venue, so first-timers who aren’t hotel guests might get lost. You need to take the escalator from the "Rainbow Bazaar," a shopping area next to the self-parking building, to reach the venue, so be careful if you’re running late.
I was seated at a table at the far end, but the tables are arranged in a U-shape around the stage, so even from the standard seats, the view was impressive. Some might feel that their seats are "a bit far," but unless it’s a special occasion, I don’t think premium seats are necessary. The order for getting food is called starting from the premium seats, but since there were few people in the premium seats and there are two food serving areas, I only waited about five minutes. You might wait 20 to 30 minutes before being called, but since it’s a trip, I think chatting and having fun will make the time fly by. Once you get your food, you won’t have to wait in long lines for refills.
初ルアウ、家族7人みんな楽しめました!
参加前はコストパフォーマンスを考えると高くて余り期待できないかなと思いましたが総合的に結果満足です。
あくまで個人的な意見ですが、次の参加者の参考の為にあまり書込みが無い内容を多めに、少しだけ細かく記載します。
会場のヒルトンへはレンタカーで行きましたが、パーキングはセルフパーキングとバレーパーキングが利用できます。
私は17時15分の開場に遅刻した為、バレーパーキングで車を預け時間短縮の最後の悪あがき(笑)
バレーパーキングだからヴァリデーション(駐車料金割引もしくは無料)を受けても、ある程度高い駐車料金を払う覚悟をしました。
しかし、終了後に車を引き取るとバレーパーキングでも無料でした!! でも、チップは忘れずに渡しましょう。
レンタカーで行かれる方はバレーパーキングをお奨めします。
車を預ける際に宿泊ゲストかビジターか聞かれますので「ビジター、ルアウショー」と言えば英語が苦手でも大丈夫!!
ショーの終了後に会場スタッフからヴァリデーションのシールを忘れずに貰ってください。
ショーの終了後もヒルトン内で駐車料金を気にする事無く買い物も出来ちゃいます。
会場入りは遅刻しているので当然待ち時間なし(笑)
遅刻すると直接会場まで行く為、ホテル宿泊者意外で初めての方は必ず迷います(笑)
セルフパーキングビルの横にある「レインボーバザール」というショッピング街の中からエスカレーターで会場まであがって行きますので集合時間に遅刻した方は注意してください。
案内された席は一番端のテーブルでしたが、テーブルはステージをコの字に囲むようになってるのでスタンダード席でも迫力満点で観賞できました。
席によっては「ちょっと遠い」と感じる人もいると思いますが、特別な場合で無い限りプレミアムシートの必要性は無いと思います。
料理を取りに行く順番もプレミアムシートから案内されますが、プレミアムシートの参加人数が少なかった事と、料理の配膳箇所が2箇所ある事で、5分程度の待ち時間で済みました。
案内されるまでに20~30分待つこともあると思いますが、せっかくの旅行ですので楽しくおしゃべりをしていれば苦になる時間ではないと思いますよ。
一度料理を取ってしまえばお替りの際に長い列に並ぶ事はありません。

This time, I participated in an activity with my company's group. Since it was my first overseas trip, I was a bit anxious, but having a Japanese guide made me feel at ease and allowed me to enjoy myself. Also, the show was of very high quality and I was completely satisfied with the content. Next time, I want to go with my family!
今回は会社のグループでアクティビティに参加しました。
私自身は初めての海外旅行と言う事もあり不安でしたが日本語ガイドが付いてくれたりと安心して楽しむ事が出来ました。
又、ショーもすごくクオリティーが高く十分満足の行く内容でした。今度は家族で行きたいと思います!
