All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

The meal included a salad (ordinary), the main dish of frilly chicken (huge and tender), an ahi poke bowl (deliciously seasoned), today's fish dish (lightly flavored white fish, very tasty), and dessert was ice cream.

The performance was authentic and truly wonderful! I was really impressed by the high level of talent!

However, the seating was a bit disappointing, as it was lined up right next to the stage, and the entrance behind the bar was clearly visible, making it feel less like a resort. Of course, there was no view of the ocean at all.

If I go again, I would like to sit in the area by the pool, which has a much larger space, without making a reservation. On this day, there were quite a few empty seats even after the performance started.

料理は、サラダ（普通）、メインのフリフリチキン（巨大で肉とろける）、アヒポケ・ボウル（味付け美味）、本日の魚料理（白身魚薄味美味）、デザートのアイスでした。
演奏は本格的で本当に良かったです！すごいレベルが高く感動しました！
席がちょっと残念で、ステージの真横にずらっとある感じで、バーの裏方の入り口が丸見えでリゾート？な席ではなく、海はもちろん全く見えずです。
次に行くことがあったら予約はせずプール側のまだ広い空間の方の席に行きたいなと思いました。この日は演奏始まってもかなり席が空いていました。

Every aspect of the luau was wonderful. The ambience, the view, the dinner, the singing, and the dancers!

The highlight of the night was the show, the music, dancing, and storytelling were captivating!

The performers were beyond amazing.
The table service was excellent.
The food was excellent - so delicious!
The price for premium upgrade- disappointing.
The ambiance could have been more authentic rather than long rows of very crowded tables and unbearable heat for the first 90 minutes before sunset.
Closer to the water maybe? Sail shaped tarps for shade maybe?
Definitely recommend.

food was good for buffet, and the entertainment was so much fun!!

Everything was beautiful, service was wonderful, food was authentically Hawaiian. Such a memorable experience for my family and I.

The show was entertaining and out of the ordinary. You won't find another show like this one on the island! Elvis and MJ both did a great job!

The luau show and the fire show were wonderful. The tattoo experience was also great, and I got a unique flower design. I could choose designs like turtles or tribal patterns for the tattoo. Of course, since it was done with a permanent marker, it faded by the next day.
The food was just okay—neither good nor bad.
I was able to see a beautiful sunset from the venue, and on Friday night, I watched fireworks that were among the best I've ever seen.

ルアウショーも、ファイヤーショーも素敵でした。タトゥー体験も素敵で個性的な花を描いてもらいました。タトゥーは亀とか部族の柄も選べました。もちろん油性マジックなので、次の日には消えました。
食事内容はまあまあです。可もなく不可もなくといった感じ。
会場から素敵な夕日も見れたし、金曜日の夜で花火を見たのですが、人生最高に近い花火でした。

The Xplore ride was really fun and brought out the kid in me! If you know a little about VR and Mixed Reality, this experience starts off with Mixed Reality with nice fish and marine life around you and some light educational sections on Waikiki and the beaches. The ride does transition into full VR at times with underwater volcanic vents, above ground volcanic eruption, a 360 visual aerial view above the islands (nice!), and an underwater route with all sorts of aquatic creatures around you, known to be local to the islands and some nice coral (this was my favorite part). There is more light educational pieces dispersed in these full on VR parts as well. The movement of the bus really gives you the sense of “traveling” through the VR worlds and even the fish “swimming” through the bus in Mixed Reality was enhanced by the movement. Our host was wonderful and really explained everything well! The driver was very friendly too. The experience can be heard in Japanese or English. Too me, the only negative, though the headsets are of very high quality, was the pass through video of the outside was a bit unfocused when it was too far in the distance (like the ocean views near Diamond Head). Final thoughts are that it is definitely worth it and please consider supporting this business and others that bring the beauty of nature and the immersion of technology and imagination together!

I saw Auwana for the first time. It was wonderful. Three generations of our family enjoyed it together. I had seen a Cirque du Soleil performance in Japan before. The theater is small, so you can enjoy a great sense of presence from any seat. It was cool, but it wasn't too cold even without a jacket.

初めてアウアナを見ました。
素敵でした。
親子三世代で楽しめました。
日本でシルク・ドゥ・ソレイユの公演はみたことがありました。
劇場のサイズが小さいのでどの席でも臨場感たっぷりで楽しめます。
涼しかったけど、上着がなくてもそこまで寒くはなかったです。

Once it started, the performances continued non-stop. There were parts that engaged the audience and created a lively atmosphere, making it a very enjoyable and quick experience!

始まったらノンストップで演目が続きます。観客を巻き込んで盛り上げる部分もあり、とても楽しいあっと言う間の時間でした！

The entire staff was very accommodating- everything was wonderful from start to finish! We were waited on by the best staff and the drinks came often and quickly. Five stars!

This was so fun! The vibes were immaculate. Beautiful views, great music, open bar, and a fun a** crew. Definitely doing this again next visit.

My husband and I surprised my parents with a lei greeting in the airport upon our arrival in Honolulu, Oahu. Our greeter was wonderful and the leis were beautiful! I especially loved the leis the guys are wearing, they were so unique. Perfect start to any Hawaiian vacation!

The show was very good, the food not so much especially for the price. A lot of walking. A long drive from Waikiki in traffic.

This cruise was lovely! The 2 attendants on the boat were amazing. Super fun and personable, constantly making sure everyone was having a good time. The views were amazing! Highly recommend for a fun date night or group!

I attended with my elderly mother in a wheelchair. When I informed the theater staff about the wheelchair, they kindly escorted us to our seats, and after the show, they brought the wheelchair back to our seats. Their attentive service was very helpful.

高齢の母と車椅子で参加しました。　車椅子と当日劇場スタッフに伝えると　席まで連れて行ってくださり　ショーが終わると　また席まで車椅子を運んでくださいました。とても丁寧な対応で　助かりました。

It was a 90-minute show, and it was an overwhelming performance that both adults and children enjoyed. It was fun to buy popcorn in a cup before it started.

90分間のショーですが　圧倒されるパフォーマンスで　大人も子供も楽しるショーでした。
始まる前に　カップ入りのポップコーンを買ったりして楽しかったです。

Check-in was at 5 PM, and we were given three drink tickets per person and shown to our seats. Although the front row was fully booked at the time of reservation and we had the basic plan, we were seated at a two-person table on the edge of the third row, which had a good view. The waiters came by at just the right times to take drink orders and even offered to take photos, providing a pleasant service experience. At the end, the two leftover drink tickets were exchanged for cute paper packs of mineral water to take home.

During the time from check-in to the show, we observed the making of kapa and poi. The kapa-making demonstration had a bit of a line, but it was organized into small groups, and even if you didn't understand English, it was fun to see the cute hula girls up close. There was no making of na lawaia, but instead, there was a corner where they stamped your arm with a tattoo-like design. The show was scheduled to start at 7 PM, but in reality, singing and hula began around 6 PM and ended by 8:40 PM. It was nice that we could take photos with the performers at the end. Compared to the Hilton show I attended previously, the stage was smaller, but at the Hilton, there were a lot of people, leading to long lines for check-in, a buffet-style meal with more waiting, and shared large tables. Personally, I found this experience to be more satisfying.

17時にチェックイン、1人3枚のドリンクチケットを渡されて席に案内されました。予約時に前列確約が満席で基本プランでしたが、3列目端の２人席で見やすくてよかったです。ドリンクもウエイターがタイミングよく聞きに来てくれたり写真を撮ってくれたり、気持ちの良いサービスでした。最後に2枚余ったドリンクチケットはお持ち帰り用のかわいいミネラルウォーター紙パックと交換してくれました。チェックインからショーまでの時間はカパ作りやポイ作りを見学。カパ作りは少し並んで小グループごとに説明してくれる形式で英語がわからなくてもかわいいフラガールのお姉さん達を間近に見られて楽しかったです。ナ・ラワイア作りはなく、代わりに腕にタトゥーのようなのスタンプを押してくれるコーナーがありました。ショーは19時からと書いてありましたが、実際には18時台から歌やフラが始まり、20:40には終了でした。退場時に舞台出演者と写真が撮れるようになっていたのもよかったです。以前参加したヒルトンのショーに比べると小さめのステージでしたが、ヒルトンは人数が多くてチェックインに長蛇の列、食事はビュッフェに並びドリンクも取りに行かなければならず、席は大きなテーブルで相席だったので、自分的にはこちらの方が満足度が高かったです。

VR has advanced. It felt like I was traveling between the surface and the deep sea, which was a strange sensation. I was also glad to see Diamond Head up close.

VRが進歩していました
地上と深海を行き来しているようで、不思議な感覚でした
ダイヤモンドヘッドも間近で見られて良かったです

The content exceeded my expectations. The acrobatic show was, of course, impressive, and there were also fun performances that involved the audience, creating a sense of unity throughout the venue.

期待を遥かに超える内容でした。
アクロバットなショーはもちろん、観客を巻き込んだ楽しい演出もあり、会場全体が一体感を持ってショーが行われていました。

I thought it was for kids, but adults can enjoy it too.
VR often makes me feel nauseous, and I'm not good with it, but this time I was fine.
I felt the progress of VR.

子供向けかと思いきや、大人でも楽しめました
VRは気持ちが悪くなりやすく、苦手でしたが、今回は大丈夫でした
VRの進歩を感じました

To be honest, I watched the show without much expectation, but it was a very packed show with hula, pop, and fire performances, and I really enjoyed it.

正直、あまり期待せず観覧したショーでしたが、フラからPOP、ファイヤーショーまで、とても盛り沢山なショーで楽しめました

I hardly speak any English, so I was very anxious at first. However, there were moments when Japanese was mixed in, and I really had a great time. The magic was also amazing! The conversation was lively, but since it was in English, I couldn't keep up with everything, and I truly regretted not studying English more. I really don't understand much English, but I had an incredibly wonderful time!

英語がほとんど話せないので、初めはとても不安でした。しかし、ところどころで日本語を混ぜでくださり本当にとても楽しい時間でした。マジックもとても素晴らしかったです！トークも軽快でしたが、英語だったため全てにはついていくことができず、英語を勉強しておけばよかったと心から後悔しました。
本当にほとんど英語がわからないですが、非常に素晴らしい時間を過ごせました！！

Everything was perfect. Perfect Crew, perfect boat, perfect ocean ...... and perfect drinks.
MAHALO

There are tours for all of Pearl Harbor, but there are no standalone tours just for the Aviation Museum. You have to go directly to the site, but this time I was helped by getting tickets that couldn't be obtained from the official page.

パールハーバーの全部ツアーはあるが航空博物館だけというか3つの単独ツアーがない中現地へは直接行かなければ行けませんが今回は公式ページでは取れないチケットを取ってもらい助かりました

Our dinner cruise was nothing short of exceptional. The vessel was spacious, ensuring a smooth, comfortable ride without any hint of seasickness. Boarding and disembarking were seamless, and despite the ship’s size, the atmosphere felt intimate rather than crowded. The meal was beautifully prepared and flavorful, complemented by lively entertainment. Our server’s vibrant energy and warmth elevated the entire experience. The true magic, however, unfolded on deck—watching Waikiki’s shimmering skyline from the water as fireworks lit up the night sky. An unforgettable evening I would gladly repeat.

It was an emotional experience! I didn't expect to see it in Hawaii, but I would like to see it again when I come back to Hawaii. Thank you.

感動の体験でした！
ハワイで見るとは思っていませんでしたが、またハワイにきたら見たいと思います。
ありがとうございます。

If you're going to Waikiki, I highly recommend this show, so I made a reservation before my trip. The quality of the dancers was high, and the story about the lei and the engaging service made for a very enjoyable time while feeling the breeze of Waikiki. It was a bit disappointing that the dining area was a bit far away, but there was a wide variety of delicious food to enjoy.

ワイキキに行くのなら是非このショーをと紹介されて、出発前に予約しました。
ダンサーのクオリティが高く、レイについてのストーリーと観客を盛り上げるサービス、ワイキキの風を感じながらとても楽しく良い時間を過ごせました。
食事を取りに行く場所が離れていたのが少し残念でしたが、料理の種類も多く美味しく頂きました。

It was an experience on Thursday. Unlike a cruise ship, the refreshing feeling was exceptional, and with all-you-can-drink options, it seemed that not just us, but all the passengers were enjoying themselves.

木曜日の体験でした。クルーズ船とは違い、爽快感が格別で、飲み放題であり、
当方のみならず、乗客みんなが楽しんでいるようでした。
