All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

There were various dishes, and all of them were delicious! The show was performed by a large group, which made it very impressive and moving! The fire dance, in particular, was entertaining, with everyone, both kids and adults, laughing!

料理もいろいろあり、どれも美味しかったです！ショーも大人数でやるので迫力がありとても感動しました！特にファイヤーダンスは子供も大人もみんな笑っていて面白かったです！

I participated with my wife on our honeymoon. It was held in the heart of Waikiki at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, and we were able to make good use of our time by visiting various shops before it started. We had a buffet-style meal outdoors on the fourth floor, where a whole roasted pig was presented, which was enjoyable to see. When I mentioned to the staff that we were on our honeymoon, they kindly offered us a complimentary glass of champagne. Everyone was entertained with singing and dancing.

After the meal, we moved to the theater to enjoy the main show. We watched performances featuring Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Katy Perry, and a fire show. The quality of both the singing and dancing was very high, and I was captivated. Personally, I was looking forward to Michael's "Smooth Criminal," but it was a bit disappointing.

I would like to use this experience again when I visit Hawaii.

ハネムーンで嫁と一緒に参加させていただきました。ワイキキの中心部、ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターで行われており開始前にも色々なお店に行き時間を有効に使えました。4階の野外で最初にビュッフェスタイルで食事をしました。子豚の丸焼きが登場し見た目でも楽しめました。スタッフの方にハネムーンで来たと言ったらシャンパンを1杯サービスして頂きました。歌やダンスで皆んなを楽しませて頂きました。
食事が終わった後にシアターに移動しメインのショーを楽しみました。エルヴィス•プレスリー、マイケル•ジャクソン、ケイティ・ペリー、ファイヤーショーを観賞しました。どの方も歌、ダンス共にとてもクオリティが高く聞き•見入ってしまいました。個人的にマイケルのSmooth Criminalが好きで期待してたのですが、、、少し残念でした。
またハワイへ行く際には利用したいと思います。

The Polynesian Cultural Center presented shows from the various groups that make up the Hawaiian Culture. The final show was good but too long and the food at the Luau was OK but nothing spectacular.

There were various boats departing, so it was a bit difficult to find the reception area, but I managed to get there somehow. The boat ride was absolutely wonderful! I plan to participate every time I go to Hawaii!

いろいろな船が出てるので、受付の場所が分かりにくかったのですが、何とかたどり着けました。船は最高に気持ちよかったです！ハワイに行ったら、毎回、参加しようと思います！

This was amazing, loved the top floor with the nice ocean breeze. I will definitely be doing this again when I come back!!

The Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise was the best I have ever experienced! Food was excellent and rates a 10!!! The service was top notch with the servers offering to do anything to make our trip pleasant and fun. The entertainment was more than expected and with the audience participation it made the evening so enjoyable. I would take my whole family next time!

This is my husband's fourth time in Hawaii, and since he has never seen a dance at this cultural center, I recommended it as someone who has seen it several times. I have taken hula and Tahitian dance lessons and have practiced with the dancers here, so I have seen their practice sessions. Being professionals, their practice was quite thorough. I think the dancers have a high level of awareness.

The dance has a storyline, and my husband really enjoyed it. I'm glad I recommended it! If you haven't been to the Polynesian Cultural Center, I definitely encourage you to go at least once.

As for the buffet, the variety of dishes was surprisingly limited and incomplete. However, there were plenty of crabs, so it might be good for crab lovers.

　今回ハワイが4回目になる主人は、このカルチャーセンターでのダンスを観たことがないので、何回か観たことのある私がおすすめしました。フラとタヒチアンダンスを習っている私は、ここのダンサーと一緒にレッスンしたこともあり、練習風景を見たことがあります。プロなだけあって、練習もしっかりしたものでした。ダンサーの意識が高いと思います。
　ダンスはストーリー性になっていて、主人もすごく楽しんでいました。おすすめした甲斐がありました(^^)v。
　ハワイと言えば、ポリネシアン文化センターだと思いますので、行ったことのない方は、一度是非行ってみてください。
　ビュッフェは、料理の品数が意外に少なく不完全でした。カニがたくさんあったので、カニ好きにはいいかもしれません。

It was a reservation for the day we arrived on the Big Island. Most of the guests were foreigners, and there were a lot of people in line. The weather wasn't great, and they were handing out simple ponchos while we waited. My wife's poncho seemed to be a bit defective, and she struggled to put it on, but several foreigners in line helped her, and she finally managed to wear it. It was a fun memory. As for the show, it started to rain heavily around the time we were having dinner, and the drinks became watered down, so due to the fatigue from the flight, we ended up leaving before the show started. What a shame! However, it seemed that the foreigners were enjoying themselves despite the rain.

ハワイ島に到着した日の予約でした。お客さんはほとんど外国の人で、大勢の人が並んでいました。天気が良くなくて　並んでいる時に簡易ポンチョが配られていました。家内のポンチョはちょっと不良品だったようで　着るのに苦労していると　周りに並んでいた外国の方が　何人も手伝ってくれてやっと着用できました。楽しい思い出です。　肝心のショーの方は、食事をとってきた頃から雨が激しくなりドリンクも水っぽくなってしまったので　飛行機の疲れもあってショーが始まったころに退席してしまいました。残念！！　外国の方は雨もなんのその　皆さん楽しまれていたようです。

Came to Maui for my honeymoon and of course had to see a luau. We had originally booked another luau but heard great things about the royal Lahaina so we decided to change it last minute. They were able to seat us in the second row as VIP. The ocean view was breathtaking, the dancing was amazing and the dancers were gorgeous. Unlimited food and drinks made it that much more fun. It rained during the luau but it was definitely an experience my fiancé and I will never forget. Would definitely recommend it to everyone!

My wife and I are in our mid-fifties so we cant do the extreme sports or activities. We still wanted to do an activity in Hawaii so we chose Rock a hula and we couldnt be happier. The food was very tasty, they even had a pig like they do in traditional luaus. My wife really enjoyed the coconut fish and the desserts. The dinner was a 10! The show included amazing impersenators of Elvis and Micheal Jackson. We weren't to familiar with the third, but the rest of the younger crowds did seem to enjoy her. I think there is no going wring with this Rock a hul, it will surely let everyone have a great time!

Let me start by saying, I'm not easily impressed. From the start, with our pick up the staff was friendly and accommodating. Our pick up driver was on time. Being that we were also brining our small 9mo old we were ruining a few minutes behind yet, he kindly waited. We got there and were escorted to the theater. While we waited for dinner they put on a little show with hula dancers. Once we were allowed to enter the dinning area the staff all greeted us with smiles and genuine recognition. The drinks were delicious!! My husband isn't a fan of mixed drinks, but instead of his usual beer he actually drank two mai tais. We learned a few hula dances at dinner my son and I, that was my favorite.The food presentation was beautiful and very tasty, dessert my favorites cake, ice cream and cookies good for everyone's taste buds. The show itself was a perfect mix of Hawaiian and traditional entertainment. I actually enjoyed the Hawaiian parts best. I would recommend to more of my family and friends to attend, I already have. They take great care of you!

We had a great time! Met some awesome people! The crew was fantastic! Amazing views

My wife and I both enjoyed the luau at Smiths. The grounds are beautiful and the facilities are well maintained. The friendly family service provided by the Smiths was first rate. The food at the luau was incredible and plentiful. Open bar lasted about 1 1/2 hours featuring "mai tais" and beer. The luau show had a very real feel to, not like a "Hollywood" production and was fantastic. They accepted the Veltra voucher without any question. Loved the experience. Thanks to the Smith family and Veltra.

Great fireworks, sailing, and Maitais! Definitely do it again.

When we set sail, we were rocked by the waves, but once we got out to sea, it felt like a comfortable cradle. We thoroughly enjoyed the fireworks, and as the night sky darkened, the stars began to shine, and the sparkling night view of Waikiki was beautiful. It was the best cruising experience, with the sea breeze blowing. However, when disembarking, the high tide caused the waves to be rough, and someone fell due to the strong waves. It's recommended to keep your phone and other items in a waterproof case.

船出した時は波に揺られましたが、沖に出てしまえば、心地良い揺りかごのよう。花火はもちろん堪能しましたが、暮れゆく夜空に星々が輝き始め、ワイキキの夜景の煌めきも美しく、海風に吹かれて最高のクルージングでした。ただし下船の際に満潮で波が高く、高波の直撃を受けて転んだ方がいました。携帯等は、防水ケースに入れておくのがオススメです。

Originally, I hoped to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center from the afternoon to the evening, but it was fully booked. I ended up joining the morning tour, and I was very satisfied!

The bus guide's stories about Hawaii were enjoyable, and when it was time to say goodbye, I genuinely felt that I wanted to come back.

In the afternoon at the Polynesian Cultural Center, I had lunch and explored each village. On the flight there, I watched "Moana" and realized that they really lived a similar lifestyle, which made me feel the resilience of humanity.

The show of climbing the palm trees was breathtaking! I was amazed by the incredible speed and height!

This is a recommended spot to visit when you come to Hawaii!

元々ポリネシアカルチャーセンター着からの
昼から夜希望でしたが、予約でいっぱい。
朝一からのツアーになりましたが大満足でした！

バスガイドさんのハワイ話は楽しく
別れの時にはまた来たいと素直に感じました。

昼からポリネシアカルチャーセンターで
昼食から各村を見学。
行きの飛行機でモアナと伝説の海を見ましたが
本当に同じような生活をしていたのだと実感し
人間の逞しさを感じました。

ヤシの木を登るショーは圧巻！
尋常じゃないスピードと高さに度肝抜かれました！

ハワイにきたら行ったほうがいいオススメスポットです！

It was my first time seeing Waikiki from the ocean. The fireworks ended in about five minutes, but since we were seated on the third-floor deck for the appetizers, we had a great view during the fireworks.

海からワイキキをみるのは初めてでした。花火はものの5分程度で終了しましたが、アペタイザーは３階のデッキに最初から座るので花火のとき良い席でした。

I returned to my teenage years and reaffirmed that Hawaii is an indispensable legend. It was great.

10代にもどれました、またハワイに欠くことの出来ないレジェンドで在った事を再認識しました、良かったです。

Didn't expect the tropical garden setting. Didn't expect dinner with live music and then the show.
Pleasantly surprised at the subtle differences to others I've been too. Made me sit up and actually really take notice.
Thoroughly enjoyed everything and would recommend this Luau by far.

It was hard to find the location, and I got lost. There is a boarding area at the beach inside the Sheraton. Before boarding the yacht, we took some photos and then got on. The welcome drink was a Mai Tai, followed by an all-you-can-drink option. There were about three groups of Japanese people, but most of the guests were white. However, I really enjoyed that it was the most interaction I had with foreigners during my trip to Hawaii.

場所がわかりずらく迷いました。シェラトンの中のビーチに乗り場があります。ヨットに乗る前に写真撮影し、乗船。アルコールはマイタイがウエルカムドリンク。その後飲み放題。日本人は3組程度でほぼ白人でした。が、ハワイ旅行で一番外人と触れ合えたのが楽しかったです。

It is a fun tour starting right from Waikiki Beach. The tide was high when we left so it was a bit if a challenge to get on board but once on it, it was a great evening. A good adult punch and local beer was all it took ...

When getting on and off, high waves came, and I got quite wet up to my waist. I had read reviews about this, so I wore a quick-drying dress, flip-flops, and a swimsuit underneath, which allowed me to enjoy without any stress.
The black yacht named Mai Tai stood out and looked cool, and the staff wore matching colored T-shirts, so I thought I would definitely buy one if they had it.
Drinking a Mai Tai, seeing a rainbow, and viewing Diamond Head from various angles felt really nice.

乗るときと降りるときに高い波が来て、けっこうビシャっと腰まで濡れました。そんな口コミを見ていたので、すぐ乾くワンピースに、ビーサン、中には水着を着ていったので、ストレスなく楽しめました。
マイタイ号の黒いヨットは、目立っていてかっこよく、従業員さんが同じカラーのTシャツを着ていたので、あればぜったい買ったのになぁと思いました。
マイタイを飲んで、虹も見れて、ダイヤモンドヘッドも色々な方向から見れて、とても気持ちが良かったです。

Good luau. Little cheesy but good food and atmosphere

The Ambassador pass was outstanding! The tour guide was perfect, the shows were fabulous. Food was delicious. The whole day was amazing!

While being rocked by the boat, the crew also got everyone excited, and with some drinks in us, we all became cheerful, dancing and singing. We had a great time and definitely want to participate again next time.

船に揺られながら、クルー達も盛り上げてくれて、お酒が入った私達もみんな陽気になり、踊ったり、歌ったりとっても楽しめました。次回もまた、必ず参加したいです。

Had a great time. It's worth it. Highly recommeded

The Rock a Hula show was good, including Elvis presley, michael jackson, and katie perry. It also included traditional festive hawaiian misic, and dance, as was quite entertaining.!! I would recommend taking the show-laua package, food was great, and hosts were sooo nice!! I hope you will decide to go. The fire knife dance was also very entertaining!! He pressed the fire directly to his tongue, and held up the fire directly with his feet! Also twirled the fire with both hands! I cannot believe how he can stand the heat!! Elvis presley sang many songs, and came off the stage into the balcony, and shook my hand, and hugged my wife, unbelievable!! Michael jackson did his moonwalk, and sang classic mj songs like billie jean, etc., so entertaining!! He really looked like michael jackson, the black geri-curled hair, signature white glove, red dance jacket, and those famous michael jackson dance moves, WOW!!
I can't say enough about the venue, the hotel which held the show, the drinks were awesome, all the staff were so nice, so accomodating, and everyone was helpful!! When I return to hawaii in june I plan to go again with my sons!! You would really enjoy this show, I highly recommend it!! The total experience was an unforgettable pleasure!!

My husband took me here for our Anniversary. We had a great time at the buffet! The food was amazing and so was the dinner entertainment! There isn't a bad seat in the place! They engaged the audience in the performance and not only were the main acts great, the dancers were amazing and kept the audience attention the whole time. You weren't ready for it to be over, but it was nice to take pictures wth the entertainers after the show. It was my husbands second time attending, so I bet we will be back for another show! Worth every penny!

During my trip to Hawaii with my mother, I wanted to see a hula dance show since we were in Hawaii. I found information about this hula show in other guidebooks and thought it might be famous, so we decided to participate. The location was excellent, right in the center of Waikiki, and the show ended after 9 PM. I was a bit worried about walking back to the hotel, but there were plenty of people around, and we were able to walk back safely.

We gathered at the Royal Hawaiian Center around 6:30 PM and had our meal in a tent-like area outside. It was a lot of fun to interact with others seated nearby. The buffet-style meal was delicious, and the staff were all very cheerful, creating a bright and enjoyable atmosphere. After having dessert and taking a restroom break, we entered the venue right in front of us and took photos with the performers.

When the performance started, the hula dance and impersonation show began, and everything was really enjoyable. Watching the performers dance so happily lifted our spirits as well. The impersonation performers ranged from stars of the grandmother generation to current popular figures, making it a show that people of all ages could enjoy.

Seeing this show energized me and made me feel very cheerful. It was a lot of fun!

母と2人でハワイへ旅行した際に、ハワイに来たからにはフラダンスを見たいと思い、他のガイドブックにもこのフラショーについて書いてあり、有名なのかなと思い参加してみました。立地がとても良く、ワイキキの中心部にあり夜9時過ぎに終演で、帰り道など危なくないかと不安でしたが、人通りも多く、ホテルまで歩いて帰れました。
18時30分頃ロイヤルハワイアンセンターへ集合し、食事は外のテントのような所で食べました。席が近くなった方と交流したりとても楽しかったです。また、食事はビュッフェスタイルでとても美味しい料理ばかりでした。スタッフの方もとても陽気な方ばかりで、明るい雰囲気がとても楽しかったです。 食後のデザートを食べ、トイレ休憩した後は目の前の会場の中に入り、パフォーマーの方と写真を撮りました。 パフォーマンスが始まると、フラダンスとモノマネショーが始まりどれもとても楽しかったです。パフォーマーの方がとても楽しそうに踊っている姿をみて、私たちも楽しい気分になりました。モノマネパフォーマーのおばあちゃん世代のスター〜今時の流行りの方だったりと、どの世代も楽しめるようなショーでした。
このショーを見れて元気が出ましたし、とても明るい気持ちになりました。 楽しかったです！

Fireworks, free Maitai's, and sailing at night along Waikiki beach. How can you go wrong? You can't. This is the best Waikiki attraction for the bucks. And the drinks were excellent.

OPEN BAR!!!!

Mahalo.
