All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

All day excursion. Wonderful experience. Our guide, Stau, was enthusiastic, fun, and knowledgeable. The different villages, with all of the friendly people, entertainment, and learning opportunities were well done. The luau was good. The Ha, Breath of Life show was amazing. Will go again next time I visit Hawaii. Thanks so much for the experience.

This will be a repeat visit.
The scenery, the wind, and the vibe are truly amazing.
It can get a bit chilly when you head out to sea, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket.
I will use this service again.

We participated as a mature couple. Our understanding of English is just enough to grasp what is being said, but we had an amazing time. The cheerful captain and the foreign participants really enhanced the atmosphere, making it a fun cruise. We were also deeply moved by the views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the beauty of the sunset from the sea. We definitely want to participate again next time!

熟年夫婦で、参加しました。英語は、なんとなく言ってることが理解できる程度の私達ですが、最高に楽しめました。陽気なキャプテンや外国人の参加者が場を盛り上げてくれ楽しいクルーズとなりました。また、海から見るワイキキの景色、ダイヤモンドヘッド、サンセットの美しさに大変感動しました。次回も絶対参加したい！

I couldn't reconfirm using the phone number written on the voucher. If reconfirmation was necessary, I would have liked to know that before making the reservation. It's quite difficult for those who are not good at English.

On the day of the event, while I was being shown to my seat and went to get a drink, another staff member seated a different customer, which caused us to lose our seats. Again, my limited English made it hard to communicate with the staff. The staff, seeing the situation, called a Japanese staff member to help us explain, and we finally secured a seat, but it was at a different table. The person who originally had that seat was upset. (I couldn't understand what they were saying, but their gestures and tone indicated they were angry.) It seemed that they told the staff, and we ended up staying at that table, feeling quite uncomfortable.

We were looking forward to the show as a couple, but it was very disappointing. Moreover, the food was served by table, and it took a long time for it to come around, so we were almost last. When I went to get food, there was hardly anything left. There were no plates either. We could only get food until the show started, so we barely had anything to eat. I chose this for our last memory on the Big Island, but it turned into the worst memory. The show itself was good.

Please improve communication among staff regarding who was seated where. Well, I won't be using this service again.

とりあえずバウチャーに書かれた電話番号ではリコンファームが出来なかった。
そもそもリコンファームが必要ならば、予約前に分かるようにして欲しかった。英語が苦手な人にはかなり難易度が高い。

開催当日、席に案内され
ドリンクを取りに行ってる間に別のスタッフが別の客を席に通してしまい、私たちの席がなくなってしまった。
またここでも英語が苦手なのでスタッフに上手く伝わらない。スタッフが見かねて日本人スタッフに電話して電話をかわり私たちが説明してようやく席を確保されたが、そこはまた別の人の席で。
元々の席の人には怒られて。(何を言ってるかはよく分かりませんがジェスチャーと口調で怒ってるようでした。)その人がスタッフに言ったようで、私たちはこのままの席になりましたが、肩身の狭い思いをしました。
夫婦で楽しみにしてたショーだったのにもううんざり。
しかも料理はテーブルごとで、中々順番がまわってこずにほぼ最後。
料理を取りに行ったら、料理がほとんどない。皿もない。ショーが始まるまでしか料理は取りに行けないから、私たちはほぼ食べる事が出来ませんでした。
ハワイ島最終日に最後の思い出と選んだのに最悪の思い出になりました。
ショー自体は良かったです。
もっと、誰をどこの席に通したかとか、スタッフ同士で連携してください。
まあ、二度と利用しませんが。

It was a great seat, but I wanted to see more from the center! I definitely want to come again. The tour bus guides, two university students, were cheerful and articulate, which made the experience very pleasant.

いい席でしたがもっと真ん中で観たい！またぜひ来たいです。ツアーのバスのガイドさん、大学生のふたりも明るくハキハキしていてとても気持ちよかったです。

This was a great show. We have been to luaus before and we promise not to do it again because we feel that they are way overpriced but we decided to gamble on this one since it had great reviews and it sounded different with the rock and roll and boy it did not disappoint. Our whole party of 6 really enjoyed the show from beginning to end. I highly recommend this show to everyone. My favorite was Elvis. Its like watching Vegas in Hawaii. The buffet dinner was good too. The roast pork was great. They also had tofu and other vegetables for my vegan daughter. Very well organized and everybody was great.

Really enjoyed our luau experience! The event is well organized. Our section's server was very friendly and funny, and very quick to bring rounds of drinks from the bar. Our section was one of the last to be dismissed to get food but there was still plenty of food as new trays were continually being refreshed. Location of the luau is very picturesque but bring a jacket/sweater as our night (end of April) was very windy/chilly - some people were in winter parkas!

The concert features high-level singers and dancers, making it a rich experience. The appeal lies in being able to enjoy hula and fire dancing simultaneously, but the number of dancers left a slightly small impression.

歌手やダンサーのレベルは高く内容が濃いコンサートです。フラやファイヤーダンスも同時に楽しめる点が魅力ですが、ダンサー数の規模感が若干こじんまりの印象は残りました。

Honestly guys, this is a must do when you go to Oahu. You get to learn about the Polynesian culture while having fun! The center was huge and there’s lots of activities to do throughout the day. There’s several shows that we’re OUTSTANDING!!! The food at the luau was amazing as well. The final show: HA, was sooo good, it’s a must see. Highly recommend!

We didn't apply for VIP, so we first had a meal on the terrace while listening to music and watching hula. The food was delicious! We moved indoors and got to see a lot of songs and hula in the show. The hula was really cute!

私たちはVIPを申し込まなかったので、まずはテラスで音楽を聴きながらとフラを見ながら食事しました。ご飯も美味しかったです！室内に移動してショーも沢山の歌やフラを見れました。フラがすごく可愛かったです！

Had a good time- definitely recommend. Crew were fun and drinks were good!

Only comment for improvement would be the food and the entertainment. Seemed that it was better when I went 5 years ago. There was a larger variety of food as well as more talented entertainment

Overall the whole experience was great. Loved how everyone very involved and interacting with the audience. Loved the setup of how they lead us from one place to the next and drinks were amazing. Also loved how Elvis came to up to my baby. This was definitely my top experience in Hawaii this week. I felt as if I was in a movie because everyone was so friendly and we’re treating us all so nicely. The involvement of the employees from the dinner to the show was amazing on how they were involved The Who way through. I’m happy this was one of the first things we did on our list because it made the trip start of very good.

Great Crew, very good food, meet a lot of nice people. Enjoyed the beautiful sunset and fireworks!! Definitely a must do while in Waikiki. Was the best way to end our Hawaii holiday!!

We participated with eight people.
Michael was a bit on the heavier side with a bit of a belly, which disappointed everyone, but Elvis was perfect in both singing and appearance!!!
After the show, he took pictures and signed autographs, and everyone was thrilled.
Definitely give it a try at least once!

８人で参加しました
マイケルはちょっと太めでお腹出てて みんながっかりだったけど
エルビスは歌も容姿もバッチリ！！！
ショー終了後に、写真撮ってくれたりサイン書いてくれたりと喜んでました
是非一度は体験下さい！

Since the premium seats were fully booked, I participated in the standard seats. It was a time of unusual weather with a lot of rain and clouds, but fortunately, it cleared up, and I was able to enjoy the show with a beautiful view of Diamond Head and the ocean. I was satisfied with the variety of entertainment, including singing, hula dancing, live ukulele performances, and a fire show. For those who have never seen a Hawaiian show, I think it's a great option to enjoy with family for a special occasion. There were also many children present.

プレミア席が満席だったためスタンダード席で参加。
異常気象で雨や曇りが多い時期でしたが、運良く晴れてダイヤモンドヘッド、海も綺麗に見える中でショーを楽しめました。
歌、フラ含めた踊り、ウクレレ生演奏、ファイヤーショーなどいろいろなものを楽しむことができ満足です。ハワイアンショーをまだ見たことが無い方は、何かの記念日などにご家族で利用するのもとても良いと思います。子供もたくさんいました。

The fireworks on Friday night in Waikiki were amazing! The captain and the staff were kind, and I had a great time. I want to go again.

ワイキキの金曜日の夜の花火最高でした！船長さんもスタッフさんも親切で楽しい時を過ごせました。また行きたいです。

The boat I wanted to take was canceled due to maintenance, and I made a last-minute reservation without much expectation. However, being close to the water and feeling the pleasant sea breeze while watching Waikiki transform from day to night was really wonderful. The casual style allowed us to sit at the front of the boat and relax. We could see the happy Friday fireworks from the front, making it feel like we had them all to ourselves. Drinks were unlimited, and the crew promptly checked on us when our drinks ran low and made more for us. The food was delicious too. They brought desserts around to the guests, and everyone was really nice. Although I'm not very good at English, there were staff members who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. I usually don't get motion sickness in cars or boats, but I was a bit worried about seasickness when we headed out. Surprisingly, it didn't sway much even while docked. I felt the price was a bit high when I signed up, but it was totally worth it. It was the best experience!

乗りたい船がメンテナンスでキャンセルになり、ぎりぎりで予約して期待してなかったのですが、海面が近くて、海風が心地よくワイキキの町を日が沈み夜景に変化していく姿もとっても良かったです。ラフなスタイルのため船の前の方に座ってのんびりできます。happy　Fridayの花火他の船より前で見ることができます。花火独り占めな感じです。飲み物も飲み放題でした。船員さんも飲み物なくなるとすぐ聞いてくれて作ってくれます。食べ物もおいしかったです。デザートを船のあちこちにいるお客さんの所に持ってきてくれてとってもいい人達でした。英語得意ではないですが日本語できるスタッフいるので安心でした。普段車酔いや船酔いなどしない方ですが、沖に出るため船酔いを気にしましたが停泊中も意外と揺れなかったです。お値段は少し高いかなーと感じて申し込みましたが全然良かったです。最高でした。

Due to a sudden change for the inspection of the hull, I participated here. The weather was favorable, and I was able to see the best sunset view, but the food was still somewhat lacking. Since there were many participants and it was a buffet style, I had to wait in line for a long time to eat. The good weather and scenery were the greatest relief.

船体の点検の為、急遽変更し、こちらに参加しました。天気に恵まれ最高の夕日の景色を見ることができましたが、食事はやはりもうひとつと言った感じです。参加人数も多かった事もあり、ブュッフェスタイルなので長い時間並ばないと食べれず、天気と景色が良かったのが何よりの救いでした。

I was recommended this show by the taxi driver I took from the airport and made a reservation. The tables are shared, and everyone chats in a friendly atmosphere.

Not only does it feature relaxed Hawaiian hula dancing, but it also showcases various Polynesian dances from Tahiti, Samoa, and more. There are several interactive performances as well (like children dancing on stage together), making it a show that families, couples, and people of all ages can enjoy together.

One thing to note is that there are many moments where English proficiency is helpful. This includes communication at shared tables and understanding explanations, such as going to the buffet to get food for your table; if you don't catch it well, you might find yourself confused.

家族連れやカップル、様々な年齢の人が一緒に楽しめるショーだと感じました。

注意点といえば、英語能力が欲しい場面が多々あります。
相席でのコミュニケーションもですが
ビュッフェで食事をテーブルごとに取りに行く等の説明が、よく聞き取れてないと「あれっ」てなるかも

This is my second time here, but unfortunately, it started to rain. I had high hopes for the show. I was disappointed by the rain. It would be necessary to prepare a large tent (like at a festival in Germany).

これも2度目ですが、あいにく雨が降って来てしまいました
ショーを期待していた気持ちは大でした。
あの雨にはガッカリしました。大きなテントを準備する（ドイツの
お祭りのように）とかの必要あり。

The personnel were attentive to the needs of their clients. Check in was a breeze.
Sailing on this catamaran was an enjoyable time, along with good drinks and a great view!
The skipper and bartender/2nd hand were very friendly, entertaining and are very competent sailors. I would recommend this activity to anyone who likes to sail and want to see a portion of the island from a different perspective, this ride is for you! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

While enjoying a Mai Tai, we slowly went sailing. There were more foreign participants than Japanese, and the atmosphere and vibe were truly American. If the weather is favorable, it will be the best sunset cruise, but even with a bit of cloud cover, the colors of the sky gradually changed, which was quite moving. Since you board directly from the beach barefoot, it's best to wear clothes that can get wet, and depending on the weather, I think a light jacket is necessary.

マイタイを飲みながら、ゆっくりとセーリングしていきます。
日本人より外国人の参加が多く、雰囲気、乗りは、まさにアメリカンです。
天気に恵まれれば最高なサンセットクルーズとなりますが、少々曇っていても、空の色が徐々に変わっていって、なかなか感動ものでした。
浜辺から裸足で直接乗船するので、濡れてもよい恰好で、天気によっては寒いので羽織ものは必要かと思います。

It's definitely geared towards tourists, but it's the perfect place to experience the vibe of Hawaii! The dinner buffet is also of very high quality!

がっつり観光客向けですが、ハワイの気分を味わうには最高です！ディナーブッフェもかなりクオリティーが高いです！

When I go to Hawaii, I always feel like I have to see this show... I've watched it about 4 to 5 times, but I think the structure wasn't as good as before? It seemed like they focused too much on hula dancing, which diminished the fun of the traditional impersonation show. The person who resembles Elvis, who always performs, is stable, but compared to the impersonators I've seen before like Steven Tyler and Celine Dion, I felt a bit disappointed with the others. However, since different performers come out each time, I think I will go again.

ハワイに行ったら必ず…という感じで、４～５回は観ていますが、構成が今までで一番良くなかったような？
フラダンスを押し出し過ぎて、従来のモノマネショーの楽しさが半減していた気がします。
いつも出ているエルビスに似ている方は安定していますが、他は今まで見たスティーヴン・タイラー、セリーヌ・ディオン等のモノマネの方と比べて、ちょっと残念だった気がしました。
でも毎回出てくる方が違うので、また行くと思いますが。

This was my second time on a dinner cruise, but this ship didn't have any special stage performances, just a few band members and one Hawaiian dancer, which felt quite simple. There wasn't really a show to speak of, and there were no announcements for birthday or wedding celebrations, which made it a bit lonely. The cheerful atmosphere of Hawaii is very enjoyable, so it was a bit disappointing. The price wasn't too high, so maybe that's to be expected? Since we were a group of six, we had reserved seats, but some groups had to sit together at shared tables. It's also based on the order of boarding, so I recommend boarding early.

夕食付きクルージングは、2度目ですが、今回の船には、特段舞台もなく、数名のバンドと一人のハワイアンダンサーでさっぱりしたものでした。
ショーと言えるものはなく、お誕生日お祝い、結婚祝いなどの呼びかけもなく、ちょっと寂しかったかな。ハワイの陽気な雰囲気は、とても楽しいので、
残金でした。料金もそれ程なのでやむ得ないか？
6人で行ったので、予約席がありましたが、数名のグループは自由席で、相席状態でした。それも、乗船順なので、早めに乗船することを勧めます。

We loved it so much we're going to be booking again for next Friday!

I was able to enjoy the show from the front and center seat☆
The hula was wonderful!! The food was delicious too!
I'm glad I could participate!
Thank you very much☆

一番前の真ん中の席でショーを堪能できました☆
素晴らしいフラでした！！食事も美味しかったです！
参加できて良かったです！
ありがとうございました☆

This time there were 49 people. It was my second time sailing.

I wondered if there was a toilet on this boat, but when I sat down, I found that the area near the toilet was quite spacious after opening the red lid and going down the stairs. People who had drunk too much kept going in and out.

This time we set sail at 7:30, and since the fireworks started at 7:45, everyone chatted and drank for the remaining hour, and it was once again a lot of fun.

今回も49名
2回目のセーリングでした。

この船にトイレ？と思いましたが、座ったところがトイレの近くで、赤の蓋を開けて、階段を降りると思ったより結構広いスペースがー
飲みすぎた人たちが入れ替わり立ち代り入って行きましたー

今回は7時30分出航で、7時45分から花火だったので、残り1時間はみんな喋って飲んでとまたまた楽しかったです。

I reluctantly participated here as I couldn't secure a reservation for the Star of Honolulu and Majestic. However, this cruise takes a detour to ensure a clear view of Diamond Head, and thanks to the surrounding sailboats, you can capture beautiful photos. Unfortunately, on the day of the cruise, the weather was cloudy, so we couldn't see the sunset, but it would have been visible without any issues on a clear day. The buffet can be thought of as simple fast food and drinks, so I don't think it will be a major issue. As for the evening fireworks, it was surprisingly close, which was quite moving.

One point to note right after boarding is that the announcements will be made in Japanese in the cabin and in English on the deck. It’s definitely advisable to secure a spot on the deck. The announcements include the locations of the restrooms (two at the back), explanations of the boat/life jackets in case of an emergency, and how to order drinks, which are all straightforward matters.

スターオブホノルル号とマジェスティック号の予約が取れず、渋々こちらに参加しました。
然るに、本回遊はダイヤモンドヘッドがしっかり見えるまで迂回し、周りの帆船の甲斐あって、美しい写真が撮れます。当日は残念ながら曇天につき夕陽は拝めませんでしたが、快晴であれば問題なく見れたでしょう。ビュッフェは簡単なファストフード&ドリンクと思って頂ければ大きな問題にはならないと思います。後は夜の花火ですが、意外と間近で拝見することになり感無量になります。
一点、乗船直後の諸注意連絡ですが、日本語説明をキャビンで、英語説明をデッキで行います。どう考えても場所取りはデッキを押さえるべきです。連絡事項はトイレの場所（後方2箇所）、不慮の事故の際のボート/ライフジャケットの説明、ドリンクオーダーの仕方などで全く問題ない内容です。
