All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

The ship departed with nearly 30 passengers on board. The sunset, just before it disappeared, was truly beautiful. However, shortly after boarding, I found it difficult to hold in my need to use the restroom, which was quite challenging. I held on for a while but didn’t realize there was a portable toilet available. The foreign guests were drinking and having a great time, chatting a lot. I would like to learn from them.

約30？名ほどの満席に近い状態で、出港しました。
夕日が、落ちる間際が本当にきれいでした。が、乗った早々ﾄｲﾚを我慢出来なくなり大変でした。しばらく我慢をしていましたが・・・簡易トイレがあることが分からず・・・
外人さんは、飲んで騒いで・・・本当によく話をしていました。見習いたいです。

I am so happy that I was able to participate on this activity - it was WONDERFUL! I loved my Cousin Lloyd who was my group guide... everyone was wonderful, friendly, informative, and very respectful of their responsibilities - portraying to us the visitors a part of history and sharing of their culture. Everyone was funny, attentive and kind. I loved it! I will definitely do this again for my future visits. The Luau was delicious and Ha: The Breath of Life was incredible... too bad the video was not available for me to bring for my family to see in AZ. A big thanks for everyone that makes this possible from funding, to costumes, practices, etc... I truly appreciate all the work and effort involved in this. God bless!

It was my first time visiting Hawaii, and I took my family to the Royal Celebration. We had a great time as a family learning, and experiencing the Hawaiian culture. It was a very unique and quiet interesting. The food was beyond my expectations, so so delicious, and the outdoor venue is perfect to watch the Waikiki Sunset, view of Diamond Head, and to watch some waves coming in to shore. Beautiful pink hotel and we can't wait to do it again in our next visit to Hawaii. It was definitely a different and once in a lifetime experience. It is not your typical Luau, this is royalty style celebration, and we loved every minute of it.

Thank you for the great experience!

Spectacular setting! I've been to many luaus before and this one has the best scenery. Well organized and excellent food! I was slightly disappointed in the show as it was lower energy than others I've attended. I didn't like the way they captured ALL the cultures (Chinese, Japanese, Phillipines) as I felt it brought the energy of the entire show down and removed itself from being "Hawaiian". Over all though - we had a great time.

We wanted to do something special for our Anniversary. We're celebrating 6 years. We've never done anything like this.
Taking the Navatek was a nice experience.
We had the best seat. We recommend paying extra for the window seat its worth it. And the Sunset was soo Awesome. I was worried about getting sea sick I'm sorta sensitive, But I was uneffected. I did not get sick :)
I've lived in Hawaii my whole life and my Husband has been here for over 10 years so we see beautiful senaery everyday, And I've danced hula and tahitian Yet, Its just nice to get away and enjoy Hawaii for yourself...
We had a Great Time and would Do it Again :)
Maybe next time we'll take my Mom in Law I think she'd love it!

This cruise was a great way to start our two week vacation in Hawaii!
We had a great time although the way the gentlemen at the check in referred to it as the booze cruise, you had wave down a crewmen in order to get a drink or a refill!
We had a great sunset and a full moon rising which made it extra special.

We have been to many luaus on all the islands and this is one of the best. The food was plentiful and very enjoyable. The host and his father 2nd and 3rd generation we very informative and available to every one. They worked the tables and made sure everyone felt at home.

The entertainment during dinner was continuious. We even had a couple get engaged after the hula class. Very sweet.The bar service was fast and the special drinks well prepared.

The entertainment was very professional and varied dances form the different pacific islands. The special effects were just great.

Would we go back. In a heart beat.

I did this as a surprise for my daughter, she loved it. She was greeted as she got off the plane and after receiving the lei the agent helped take her to baggage claim.
Great experience!
Thanks

It was so nice to have your staff member waiting with sign for our Leis...I was thrilled..

I participated in a tour to watch the evening show that started in the afternoon.

Since it was quite far from Waikiki, I thought I could catch up on some sleep during the ride. However, the woman in charge provided interesting explanations about things we saw from the bus window, shared stories related to them, and talked about her own experiences, which were all very engaging, and I couldn't sleep at all.

Following her advice, I had dinner at the buffet right after we arrived, allowing me to enjoy my meal without overlapping with those who had arrived earlier for dinner. (Since the bus arrived relatively smoothly, I couldn't participate in the program, but I was able to take a leisurely walk around the park after eating.)

The show featured various dances and costumes that followed a storyline, and I felt it was worth participating in this tour.

Next time I go to Hawaii, I would like to join a daytime program and also try taking photos in Polynesian costumes that were near the show venue.

午後集合の夜のショーを観るツアーに参加しました。

ワイキキからかなり離れた場所にあるため、車中では睡眠がとれる！と考えていましたが、
担当してくださった女性の方が道中、車窓から目についたものの説明やそれに関する話、ご自身の話などをしてくださったのが、たいへん興味深くおもしろく、一睡もできませんでした。

その方のアドバイス通り、到着後すぐにディナーバイキングで食事をとったため、昼から来ていた方たちの夕食時に重ならずに、ゆっくりと食事することができました。
（バスが比較的スムーズに到着したため、プログラムに参加することは無理でしたが、食後に園内をぐるっと歩いて一周することができました。）

ショーは、ストーリーにそっていろいろな踊り、衣装を見ることができ、このツアーに参加してよかったと思いました。

次にまたハワイに行くときは、昼間のプログラムにも参加してみたいのと、あとショー会場近くにあったポリネシアの衣装を着て写真を撮るのをやってみたいです。

Great entertainment! Good food, good friends and good drinks.

My husband and I booked the Ambassador package which provided a small group guided tour. DeGe, our guide, was knowledgeable and funny. The tour didn't give us much time to see each village but the center is too big to be seen in one day so, with DeGe, we were able to see a little bit of everything. The luau was fun and the food was good. The Ha performance was also very entertaining. Well worth the money for the package.

Since it was a cloudy day in Oct., we didn't really get a spectacular sunset, but that's not the cruise company's fault. The ride to Diamondhead and back was nice. Staff was very friendly, and the hula/ singing show was pretty good. The big bus picked us up a block away from our hotel, so we didn't have to deal with trying to find the boat, or parking. A big plus!

In Waikiki, various shows are held. The most representative one is the hula show, but I definitely wanted to experience the traditional Hawaiian luau show at least once! So, I participated. Basically, everything is explained in English during the show, but it's not a problem if you don't speak English. I think if you join with a positive mindset of "Let's have fun!", it will be even more enjoyable.

ワイキキではいろんなショーを開催しています。代表的なのはフラショーですが、やはりハワイ伝統のルアウショーを１度は体験してみたい！ということで参加しました。基本的にすべて英語で説明されショーは続きますが、英語がダメな人でも問題ありません。『楽しもう！』とポジティブな気持ちで参加されると、より楽しくなると思います。

I saw in other people's posts that they had their event on the rooftop, but during our time, we had it in a spacious courtyard, which felt very open and was great. You can also see the ocean.
The show featured various dances, had a good rhythm, and was enjoyable. The host spoke in English, and there were moments when some audience members participated. (The foreign guests were very lively and engaged.)
The fire dance was amazing!
At the end, there were several dancers at the exit, and we were able to take photos with them.

他の人の書き込みに屋上でやったとありましたが、私たちのときは広い中庭でやり、非常に開放感がありよかったです。海も見えます。
ショーもいろいろな踊りがあり、メリハリがあり楽しかったです。司会は英語で観客が何人か参加する場面も有りました。（外国の方はのりがよく盛り上がっていました）
ファイヤーダンスはすごかったです！
最後に出口にダンサーが何人かいて一緒に写真をとってもらうことができました。

This was a wonderful reception to Hawaii. The Lei Greeter was so helpful to us. She greeted us, gave us our leis, took us over to get out bags from the airport terminal, and helped us get information about sites and events in Hawaii. Wonderful, Wonderful!! We would recommend this to anyone traveling to Hawaii, especially your first time.

The cruise was great!
The staff was very efficient, and helpful too.
Ambiance onboard was great, with music and a unique openbar!
I recommand this cruise to everyone, couple or friends!

We attended two different evening Laua's on the island, but the SMITH'S was the best!!!

We really enjoyed ourselves from start to finish!

A Great Cap to our trip!

THANKS!!!

When I saw the luau show, there were many foreign guests, and the venue was incredibly lively. The performance entertained the audience, and it was clear that the performers were enjoying themselves while dancing and singing. It was truly a wonderful show, and I would love to see it again.

Luau is often featured in guidebooks about Hawaii, so I had been curious about it for a while, and this time I finally got to see a luau. It was even better than I expected; the dancing and singing were excellent and simply wonderful. We had our children with us, and it was a show that the whole family could enjoy. I highly recommend it for family trips.

On the last day of my trip to Hawaii, I wanted to participate in an activity that was quintessentially Hawaiian, so I decided to see a luau show. Through this show, I was able to learn about Hawaiian culture and thoroughly enjoy authentic hula dancing, which was wonderful. The food consisted of Hawaiian dishes that I had never tried before, and I was very intrigued. I'm glad I was able to spend my last day in Hawaii so enjoyably.

It was a very enjoyable show, and I really felt it was worth seeing. I was able to fully experience Hawaii, and I could say it was the highlight of my trip to Hawaii. If you're going to Hawaii, definitely check out a luau show!

とても楽しめるショーで、本当に見て良かったなと
思いました。ハワイをたっぷり感じることができ、
ハワイ旅行のハイライトと言ってもいいくらい。
ハワイに行く方は、ぜひルアウショーを！

At first, I didn't know what a luau show was, but I went to see one at the recommendation of a friend I traveled to Hawaii with. The fire dance was impressive, but I found the hula dance to be very memorable. The synchronized movements and the graceful dancing were wonderful. I still vividly remember it. The meal was a buffet and delicious, but it was so filling that I ended up eating a bit too much... Next time, I would like to see a luau at another hotel.

最初は、ルアウショーというものを知らなくて、

The weather on the day was wonderful, and the venue for the luau show was packed with people. Since it’s a popular show, I was glad I made a reservation in advance. The venue offered a beautiful sunset view, and the breeze from the beach was pleasant, making it an ideal setting to watch the luau show. The show was a continuous series of surprises and emotions with the dances and performances! It was truly a wonderful show that will remain a cherished memory for a lifetime.

As expected from a popular entertainment option in Hawaii, I was moved by a truly wonderful show that did not disappoint. The highlight, of course, was the fire dance! It was very exciting, and I was overwhelmed by its intensity. It was also great to learn about Polynesian culture while watching the show. Additionally, the food was Hawaiian cuisine, and everything was quite delicious and very filling. I absolutely recommend this show to anyone going to Hawaii.

さすがハワイの人気エンターティメントだけあって、
期待を裏切らないとても素晴らしいショーで感動しました。

I'm really glad I saw this luau show! The performance, the food, and the atmosphere of the venue were all great, and my whole family was very satisfied. I definitely want to see it again the next time I visit Hawaii.

今回このルアウショーを見て本当に良かったです！
ショーのパフォーマンスも食事も会場の雰囲気も全部良くて、家族みんな大満足でした。
次にハワイを訪れた際にも必ずまた見たいと思います。

Free alcohol (unlimited) and the ocean? Awesome time! One of the best values on my trip. Paid WAY more for WAY less one some other ones!

My friend and I went to this Luau at the Hilton. Wwhen I heard where it was I thought it was strange to be on top of the roof of a building but you really have nice view of the Lagoon and the Ocean. I like that the tables are a U shape around the stage because everyone had a great view of the dancers! They even had me up on stage to try and blow the Conch Shell, it was hard but I did it! The food was really good, I went back for seconds of the Poke and Pork. The dancers were really talented and the fire twirling guys at the end were awesome.

I went to a luau show with two friends. All three of us enjoy shows and musicals, and we often watch them, but this luau show was particularly wonderful compared to others we've seen. The mystical hula dance and the powerful fire dance were very moving. The food was also delicious, and we left feeling satisfied. It was a night to remember.

友達と3人でルアウショーを見てきました。
3人ともショーやミュージカルなどが好きで良く見るのですが、今回のルアウショーは今まで見た中でも特に素晴らしかったです。
神秘的なフラダンスや、迫力満点のファイヤーダンスはとても感動しました。また食事も美味しくてお腹も満足。
とても思い出に残る夜を過ごせました。

This was my first trip to Hawaii and my first luau show. I had heard great things from friends and was looking forward to this luau show the most before my trip. I was moved by the amazing performances of hula and fire dancing by the performers. Not only was the performance outstanding, but the atmosphere was great, and the audience was fully engaged, creating an incredible excitement. I truly enjoyed my evening in Hawaii and was very satisfied.

今回始めてのハワイ旅行で、初めてのルアウショー。
友達からも評判を聞いていて、旅行前からこのルアウショーを一番楽しみにしていました。
出演者によるフラやファイヤーダンスの見事なパフォーマンスには感動しました。パフォーマンスもさることながら、雰囲気も良くて観客も一体となりすごい盛り上がりでした。
ハワイの夜を本当に楽しく過ごすせて大満足でした。
