All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

I would highly recommend this for all to see. We had the best time. The dancers are wonderful.

WOW!! What a beautiful evening. The crew was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was good. The view AWESOME!! We would definitely do this cruise again.

The show and the meal were great. After the show, everyone went to the restroom, and it got really crowded. In the end, we were a bit late for the meeting time. It was also a struggle to find the car on the way back. I wish there could have been a better arrangement for the meeting time and finding the car, but with so many people and the distance, it was quite overwhelming...

ショーや食事は良かったです。
ショーが終わって、みんなトイレに行き大混雑。
結局集合時間を少し過ぎました。
帰りの車を探すのも苦労をしました。もう少し、集合時間と帰りの車についてなんとかなればと思いましたが、たくさんの人と道のりもありせいいぱいかなぁ・・・

I have enjoyed various dinner shows in different countries, but this is the first time I felt so satisfied. The staff's service, the delicious food, and the wonderful show! I booked a VIP seat, and the price was reasonable, which truly impressed me. It was also close to my hotel, which was fantastic. Thank you!

今まで各国の様々なディナーショーを楽しみましたが、これほど満足できたディナーショーは初めてです。スタッフの対応、美味しい食事そして素晴らしいショー！ＶＩＰ席で申し込みましたが料金もリーズナブルだし本当に感激しました。宿泊先ホテルからも近くて最高でした。感謝！

Wonderful for entire family. Toddlers, Mom & Dad and Grandparents all loved the night. Helped us to have a real appreciation of Kauai, the people and their history.

We really enjoyed this sunset cruise. Great mix of people, there was plenty of room on the boat with perfect sunset views.
Highly recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Oahu :)

Everything was in English, but I enjoyed the atmosphere! The sunset sinking behind the palm trees, the cheerful host, Hawaiian music, and the Polynesian show created a full Hawaiian mood!

On the left side of the stage, there is an IMU oven, so if you're interested, sitting closer will give you a better view. However, after the meat is taken out, it does have a bit of a burnt smell.

For drinks, there were Mai Tais, juice, coffee, and tea. There seemed to be other alcoholic options, but I wasn't sure about them. The Mai Tai was a system where you fill a bowl with tropical juice and have the staff add rum. It was delicious even without the rum.

The food included oven-roasted pork, chicken, beef, and various vegetable dishes. It's nice to be able to try a little bit of different Hawaiian dishes. The Kona coffee cake was delicious!

The Polynesian dance wasn't exactly amazing, but since it was performed by locals, the atmosphere was nice, and the location was great, so I enjoyed it.

In the second half, there was a Hawaiian music time for a cheek dance. We just watched, but it was lovely to see an older couple from the West looking into each other's eyes and dancing or embracing.

I recommend this show for fully enjoying the feeling of being in Hawaii!

すべてが英語ですが、雰囲気で楽しめました♪
ヤシの木の後ろに沈んでく夕日、陽気な司会とハワイアンミュージック、ポリネシアンショーとハワイアンムード満点でした！

ステージに向かって左側にIMUオーブンがあるので、興味がある方は近い席の方が前で見られると思います。
ただお肉を取り出した後、まわりがちょっと焦げ臭いです。

飲み物はマイタイ、ジュースとコーヒー紅茶がありました。他のアルコールもあったみたいですが、よくわからなかったです。
マイタイはボウルに入っているトロピカルジュースを自分で入れ、スタッフの方にラムを入れてもらうシステムでした。
ラムなしでも美味しかったです。

食べ物はオーブンで焼いた豚肉の他チキンもビーフもあり、野菜料理も色々とありました。
色々なハワイ料理を少しずつ食べられるのが良いです。
コナコーヒーのケーキが美味しかったです♪

ポリネシアンダンスは正直すごい！というほどではなかったのですが、本場の方なので雰囲気があり、ロケーションもよかったので楽しめました。

後半ハワイアンミュージックでチークダンスタイムがありました。
私達はただ見てましたが、欧米の老夫婦が見つめあって踊ったり抱き合ったりする様子はとても素敵でした☆*。

ハワイに来たー！という気分を満喫するのにおすすめのショーです。

The entertainment was amazing, and the food was great!

During pickup, the tour guide did not hold a sign, which caused confusion as I couldn't identify the vehicle. Another company's guide helped me, so I boarded just in time for departure. As usual, we took photos immediately upon arrival and were billed later. Despite being a buffet, the menu was unusually limited. It was difficult to order drinks. It was terrible.

ピックアップの時、ツアー担当者が看板を手に持たず、どの車かわからず困惑。他社のガイドさんが教えてくれたので、出発ぎりぎりに乗車。お決まりの到着すぐに写真撮影し後から請求。ブッフェなのに異常に少ないメニュー。飲み物をオーダーしにくい。ひどかった

I participated because I could enjoy the sunset while drinking. The boat was simpler than I imagined, so it was affected by the waves. My wife was a bit scared of the rocking. For those who are not comfortable with the sea, a dinner cruise might be a safer option. The experience itself was very enjoyable with unlimited drinks and great music, and I was able to take many beautiful photos. If you prefer being close to the sea, I definitely recommend it.

夕方のサンセットが飲みながら見れるとのことて参加。
想像しているより簡素な船の為、その分波の影響等も受けます。
夫婦で参加しましたが、波の揺れに若干嫁は怖がっていました。
海が苦手な方はディナークルーズ等の方が安心かと思います。
内容自体は飲み放題のドリンクと音楽が非常に楽しく、綺麗な写真もたくさん取れました。
海との距離が近い方が好きな方はぜひ。

This was my first time doing anything like this, and I have to say, it defied my expectations in a good way. I had prepared myself for something flashy—bordering on gaudy, even—but what I got was something casual and relaxing, yet still elegant. There were no forced performances or over-the-top dramatizations, just a well-prepared dinner, prompt service and outstanding views. In a word, the whole experience felt genuine. It didn't feel pre-packaged or manufactured. I highly recommend it, especially for a group.

What a wonderful evening!
The boat is very elegant and has three decks with excellent viewing areas. The large windows are a plus, no matter where you are seated you will get a great view of Waikiki. My favorite part was the lounge area on the second deck, after dinner we enjoyed some cocktails listening to great Hawaiian Jazz music. The transportation was punctual and the staff is very friendly. The dinner buffet is good and there are options for everyone.
I had a really nice time with my friends at the Majestic, I would definitely recommend it for everybody.

I made a reservation through this site and went to see it in Hawaii, and it was great.
At the end, you can take photos with all the cast members. Everyone is very kind.
The fire dance was impressive.
The live performance was also wonderful.

ハワイ現地でこちらのサイトで予約して見に行きましたが、よかったです。
最後にキャストの皆さんと写真を撮れます。みなさんとても親切です。
ファイヤーダンスは圧巻でした。
演奏も生演奏で素晴らしいです。

Covered a lot of ground in one day. Too bad we didn't get more time at the cultural center. We didn't get there until 1:30.

We originally arrived on a Friday to see the show, but shortly after we started the meal,we were completely rained out. That was very disappointing and upsetting that we weren't forewarned by email about the strong possibility of rain, as we had come over from Hilo for the luau. However, we received a rain check for another luau on the following Monday. Fortunately, we were able to rearrange our schedule to come before flying home. The Monday night luau was lovely - entertainment and emcee were fantastic all around. Food was good, not great. Service was okay. Location was beautiful.

Show was amazin, national dances from lot of another cultures, like New Zealand, China etc..
After check in is a small train tour around Botanic garden with guid. Tour is around 15 min, guid show you all kind of trees what you can see in hawaii island.

Friendly staff, music, Mai Tai, and the night view of Waikiki from the ocean. The slow cruise means no worries about seasickness. The atmosphere was lively, and a foreigner sitting next to me asked where I was from, which led to fun conversations with various people. When it got a bit chilly, I ordered a Mai Tai with no ice for a refill. Just before we arrived, some people were dancing to the latest music as the drinks kicked in! Families, couples, and groups of friends were all enjoying the night view in their own ways.

フレンドリーなスタッフと音楽とマイタイと沖から見るワイキキの夜景。ゆっくりな航海なので船酔いも心配なし。気分も盛り上がり隣に座っていた外国人からどこから来たの？と声をかけられ、それがきっかけで色々な方と楽しいトーク。少し寒くなってきたらマイタイはノーアイスでお代わり。到着間際は酔いも回り最新音楽に合わせてダンスする方も！
ご家族、カップル、友達グループ、色々な方が思い思いの夜景を楽しんでいました。

My family and I enjoyed it so much we can't wait to do it again!

Loved everything about the trip. Was fun and worth it. Learned lots, the view was beyond amazing. The staff where wonderful and funy/outgoing. Would recommend for anyone and their families.

Excellent crew. Fun adventure. Definitely recommend

I went with a friend. The cocktails were delicious, the show was fun, and it was really great. I definitely want to go again.

友人と２人で行きました。
カクテルも美味しく、ショーも楽しく、とても良かったです。
また是非行きたいです。

This was awesome! The boat is beautiful and the scenery even better! Food was a nice buffet and there was plenty to go around. The crew is the best and take care of you all evening! A must do on Friday nights!

We brought 6 people to luau. I had been to Smith's Luau 3 times in the past, the others (my Fiancee, our daughters, and their friends) had not. My daughter had been to a couple of "real" Hawaiian family luaus in the past. I advised our group that this would not be like those, it would be a very structured and commercial setting with a really great Polynesian show at the end.

The Smith's are a wonderful family, very accommodating, welcoming, and freiendly beyond words. The tour, Imu ceremony, and food were as good as they had ever been in the past.

The thing that earned the Smith family only 3 stars on this visit was the quality of the performance at the end. I was looking forward to the male warrior portion of the show, but found that the current cast was lacking in stature and talent. With only 3 young men in the cast, two of whom were in the range of 100 to 130 pounds, the warrior aspect suffered dearly.

Hopefully the Smith family can rebuild this cast, or at least get a gym membership for the current cast members, and return the show to the quality that I had experienced in the past.

Had an awesome time, food was good, entertainment was good....would do it again in a heartbeat! I would recommend this cruise to everyone whose going to be in honolulu.

My family had a great time! Crew was amazing, boat wasn't crowded and the views were beautiful. Almost booked a second cruise on our trip.

Last time, I participated in a night show tour, but I wanted to see more, so this time I chose a full-day tour. Since I am learning Tahitian dance, I am very interested in Polynesian life and dance, and this time I was able to see a canoe show, which was thrilling and extremely satisfying.

In the island area, I was able to experience hula, fire-making, and tattooing, and just when I thought, "I'm getting a bit hungry," it was suddenly dinner time. The area was so large that I couldn't explore it all, so I want to go back again.

The night show was also wonderful, and I think if I saw a similar show in Japan, it wouldn't even cover the cost of this full-day tour. I definitely recommend the full-day tour.

前回は夜のショーを見るツアーに参加しましたが、もっと色々見てみたいと思っていたので、今回は1日のツアーを選んでみました。
タヒチアンダンスを習っているので、ポリネシアの生活やダンスに大変興味があり、今回はカヌーショーも見る事が出来たので、もぅドキドキの大満足でした。
島エリアで、フラや火起しやタトゥー体験も出来て、「なんかお腹が空いたなぁ〜」って思ったら、アッと言う間にディナータイムになっていました。広くて回りきれなかったので、また行きたいです。
夜のショーも素晴らしく、日本で同じ様なショーを見たら それだけで今回の1日のツアー代金ではおさまらないと思います。是非1日のツアーをおすすめします。

It was me and my husbands anniversary and head a great time on the dinner cruise. The all you can eat crab was great :)

Without Problems; in Time; very good Organization; friendly staff

Since it was far away, I went on a tour. On the bus ride there, the guide shared various interesting stories about Hawaii's past and present.

After arriving, a Japanese student guided us, and we had a great time exploring. We visited villages from six countries in the Polynesian Islands and experienced shows. Due to time constraints, there were moments when we had to move on while others were still participating in activities, but the area is so vast that it's definitely recommended to go on a tour.

Personally, I thought the Tonga show was the best! Men from various countries are selected, and the third one is chosen from among Asians, so I hope the selected person enjoys it.

The dinner buffet was also delicious. The watermelon was lighter than the ones in Japan, but it was refreshing and tasty after sweating, and I had plenty.

Finally, there was the night show. It felt like everyone who visited was there, as there were so many people, and the energy was incredible. I didn't understand all the content of the stories, but there were many performers dancing and using fire, so I enjoyed watching it. During a break, they started selling ice cream, and there was a line for it. Everyone seemed to be enjoying it.

We arrived back at the hotel a bit late, but it was a fun day experiencing the true essence of Hawaii. I recommend the tour not just at night but also during the day!

遠いのでツアーでいきました。行きのバスではガイドさんがハワイの昔や今の色んな話をしてくださったので興味深かったです。

到着してからは学生さんが(日本人)案内をしてくれて楽しくまわることが出来ました。
ポリネシア諸島の6つの国の村をまわり体験やショーを見ます。
時間の関係もあって他の方達が体験されてるのを横目に進んでいく時もありましたが、ツアーでないとまわりきれない広さではあるのでやはりツアーがお薦めです。

個人的にはトンガのショーが最高でした！色んな国の男性が選ばれますが、三人目はアジア人から選ばれるそうなので選ばれた方はぜひ楽しんでもらいたいです。

夕食のビュッフェも美味しかったです。
スイカも日本の物よりはアッサリですが汗をかいた身体には美味しく、沢山頂きました。

最後にナイトショーです。
来園された方が全員入られたのでは？と思うくらい沢山の方が見に来られていて熱気も凄かったです。
全ての話の内容がわかった訳ではないですが、沢山の出演者の踊りや火を使ったものもあるので楽しんで見れました。
途中の休憩でアイスクリームの販売が始まり行列をなしていました。皆さん美味しそうに食べてられましたよ。
帰りはホテルに少し遅く着きますがハワイらしいハワイを体験出来て楽しい１日になりました。
夜だけでなくお昼からのツアーがお薦めです！

As the final night event, I went to check it out. I only participated in the cocktail portion, but it was definitely worth seeing. Of course, there were impersonators of Celine, Michael, and Elvis, but I was most excited about the Hawaiian dance (Fireman and Hula dance)!! The sound was amazing, and the visuals in the background, along with the high quality of the surrounding dancers, made it a very good quality show that you can see quite up close. At the end of the show, you can take photos together in the meeting area. I was hesitating, wondering if tips were necessary since I didn't know the going rate, but it turned out that tips weren't needed, and they were happy to take photos casually! 😊

最後の夜のイベントとして、いってみました。カクテルだけの参加でしたが、見る価値絶対あります。セリーヌ、マイケル、エルビスのそっくりさんはもちろんですが、私はハワイアンダンス（ファイアーマンやフラダンス）が一番興奮しました！！　サウンドも素晴らしいし、バックに映る映像の演出、周りのダンサーのQuality の高さなど、ShowとしてはとてもよいQualityで結構近くでみれます。ショーの最後にミーティングエリアで一緒に写真もとれます。もしかしてチップとかいるのかな？相場がわからないな？と躊躇していましたが、Chipなども必要なく、気軽に写真撮影に応じてもらえましたよ＾＾
