All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

Food was delicious, creds to the chefs! The firework show as well was awesome.

I used this for my honeymoon. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I made a reservation here in advance. There were many foreigners around, and I was initially anxious about my English, but I managed even without speaking much.

After the buffet, there was a hula dance lesson that interested participants could join.

I really enjoyed the show, but I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could understand English better. Perhaps because it was a weekday, there were quite a few empty seats, but I think it's a great deal to enjoy a buffet and a show at this price!

新婚旅行で利用しました。
初めてのハワイということもあり、事前に予約ができるこちらを予約しました。
周りは外国人の方が多く、もともと英語に不安がありましたが話せなくてもなんとかなります。
ビュッフェのあとには、フラダンスのレッスンがあり希望者は参加ができます。

ショーはとても楽しめましたが、英語が理解できたらより楽しめたのかなぁと思いました。
平日だったからなのか、空席が結構ありましたが、このお値段でビュッフェ、ショーが観れるのはお得だと思います！

There were many participants, and it felt like a dinner show. We had to wait quite a while to get our food. The Mai Tai was a bit too sweet.

参加者が多くてディナーショーの雰囲気でした。料理を取るのにもかなり待ちました。マイタイは少し甘すぎでした。

First Hats off to Veltra! They went above and beyond to accommodate us after I chose the wrong event!

This sunset cruise was amazing! The weather was perfect the crew was fun, accommodating and the music was perfect! We could not have asked for a better evening!

Our group had a great time! However, we weren't expecting to get wet on the ride. I think that should be included in the description - as I think it's quite common. Drinks were tasty and the views of the sunset at Waikiki were excellent.

On the last day of my trip, I wanted to feel a bit luxurious and wrap up my enjoyable memories. As expected from 5STAR! The course dinner was very delicious (^.^). The sunset and the lights of Waikiki from the sea were as beautiful as jewels! The stylish atmosphere with jazz will surely create unforgettable memories with my loved ones.

旅の最終日にちょっとリッチな気分で楽しい思い出の締めくくり。
さすが5STAR！コースディナーの味もとても美味しくいただきました(^.^)
サンセットも海上から見るワイキキの灯も宝石みたいなキレイさ！
JAZZでオシャレな雰囲気は大切な方との生涯忘れられない思い出になると思います。

It took forever to get our drinks. The food was awful. The entertainment was poor to say the least.

On the last day of my stay in Hawaii, I chose to participate in a dinner and hula show curated by Michel's! The pickup was not at the hotel entrance but next to the bus stop, which made me a bit anxious, but they arrived on time, and I was able to board safely. It was a good decision to take the tour since it took a while to reach the hula garden via the highway.

When we arrived at the hula garden, a hula girl welcomed us with a shell lei. Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, but the dinner location offered a wonderful view surrounded by a lake and mountains. Since we had some time before dinner, we enjoyed taking photos and making bracelets with ti leaves!

The much-anticipated dinner was indeed delicious, as expected from a Michel's curated experience, and I was very satisfied. During dinner, I was able to feel the essence of Hawaii while watching the hula dance up close. The fire show towards the end of the performance was very powerful and exciting! At the end, I was invited by a hula girl to try a hula lesson. I found it more challenging than it looked, and I realized that hula dance has great depth!

There were Japanese staff members at the hula garden who provided information about Hawaii. They were very lovely women! The meal and the atmosphere were so pleasant that time flew by! On the way back, I was taken back to the original pickup location. I had the best night on my last day ♡ I definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is considering it!

Hawaii滞在最終日はミッシェルズ監修ディナー&フラショーを選び参加しました！
ピックアップはホテルエントランスではなく、
バスストップの横だったので少し不安でしたが
時間どおりお迎えに来ていただき無事に乗車することが出来ました。
フラガーデンまでは高速に乗り時間がかかるので、ツアーにして正解でした。
フラガーデンに着くとフラガールがシェルレイをかけてくれお迎えをしてくれました。
この日はあいにくの曇り空でしたが、ディナーの場所は湖と山に囲まれた素敵な景色が広がっているところでした。ディナーまで少し時間があったので写真を撮ったり、ティーリーフでブレスレットを作ったりして楽しく時間を過ごしました！
お待ちかねのディナーは流石ミッシェルズが監修しているだけのことがあり、とても美味しくいただくことができ満足しました。
ディナー中、フラダンスを間近で見てHawaiiを感じる事ができました。ショーの終盤のファイアーショーは、とても迫力があり興奮しました！最後にはフラガールに誘われフラレッスンを受けてみました。見ているより実際にやってみると難しく、フラダンスは奥が深いなぁと感じました！フラガーデンには日本人のスタッフがいらっしゃってHawaiiの情報などを教えて下さいました。とても素敵な女性スタッフの方でした！！お食事、その場の雰囲気がとても良くあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました！帰りも最初にピックアップしていただいた場所まで送ってもらいました。最終日最高の夜を過ごす事が出来ました♡是非、迷われている方はこちらのツアーをオススメします！

The staff's stories were interesting. The boat trip was comfortable and pleasant. The beautiful starry sky and the sight of the Purple Mountain and Taylor Comet made it memorable. The fireworks themselves were a bit lacking compared to Japanese fireworks festivals, but this is not the tour's fault.

スタッフの話が面白かったです。船は快適で気持ちの良い小旅行でした。きれいな星空とちょうど紫金山・テイラー彗星が見えて、メモラブルでした。花火自体は日本の花火大会と比べると物足りませんでしたが、これはこのツアーの責任ではありません。

I thoroughly enjoyed a full day walking around the Polynesian Cultural Center, being introduced to the different cultures, learning history, watching free performances, and buying HI things for family back home. The buffet dinner was outstanding with excellent, friendly service from staff.

The best part was the "HA Breath of Life" show. I've seen Broadway in NY and a show in the west end of London, and this show as just as good, maybe even better as it revolves around true cultural experiences for the audience to witness. I actually got tear-upped more than once. I hope many other will get the opportunity. It was worth every penny and the late bus ride back into Honolulu.

Food was not good. Meat was too tough and dry. Chairs were uncomfortable and too close together. I could not see the show at all!

It was a great experience. Worth the money. All the workers were very friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed it.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Luau. The show was fantastic and the food was great! The scenic drive to and from was a cherry on top.

Luau was amazing
Food was amazing
It’s just a shame that you guys didn’t pick us up.
Had to get a taxi to the show which was lucky we found one that could take my husbands mobility scooter.
Made some phone calls to complain and sent an email to complain
We were promised a ride back to hotel on bus.
The hostess on the bus on the way was very rude to us
We did receive a small refund which we will grateful for.
Just a suggestion (which I did mention in my emails) for future tours. That maybe your host on the buses actually go and check with all persons that may be waiting by the pickup point or little further away from pickup point. You are dealing with tourists and not everyone will know where the exact pickup points are. Also in our case have the actual name of the tour in front window of bus. Our bus did not have this. Otherwise we would like have know. The host for our tour actually started walking down towards where we were standing but turned back around half way down. She would have seen my husband was in a mobility scooter and would i assume have this information written on your paperwork.

The cruise was amazing
Food was delicious
My husband was in a mobility scooter and we were told by your company that he could not use it as weighed too
Much so had to hire a wheelchair.
When got on the bus we mentioned it to the star of Honolulu host and she said we did not need to do that. So maybe for any future customers you could check your information first.

Good service and great show. Totally worth the VIP experience.

The crew are experienced and fun! They cracked jokes and worked with the atmosphere of the guests on board. Music was blasting and the drinks were flowing. They even had a photographer to capture personal or group photos for purchase! It was amazing to see the fireworks from the boat. I would highly recommend this cruise if you want to have a good time!

We participated as a couple! Since it was my husband's birthday, we wanted to have a delicious meal that would also be memorable, so we chose this tour.

The shuttle was so comfortable that I ended up sleeping the whole way. We had about an hour before the show started, but the staff took our photos together and we were able to enjoy drinks beforehand, so the time flew by. I had seen reviews before and honestly wanted to relax without participating in games or activities, so it was great that there was no pressure to join in.

I appreciated being able to borrow insect repellent spray.

The first half featured hula dancing, and the final performance with fire was amazing. The hula dancing was a bit long, so it could have been shortened a little. The food was served at just the right timing. It turned out to be a memorable dinner.

夫婦2人で参加しました！
夫の誕生日ということもあり、美味しくて思い出にも残る食事にしたいと思いこちらのツアーを選びました。

送迎車ではずっと寝てしまうほど快適でした。
ショーが始まるまで1時間ほどありましたが、係の方がツーショットを撮って下さったり、ドリンクも先に飲めたりであっという間でした。
以前口コミを見ていて、ゲームやアクティビティは正直参加せずのんびりしたいなと思っていたので、強制参加のような雰囲気はなく良かったです。
虫除けスプレーを借りられるのが有り難かったです。

中盤くらいまではフラダンスで、最後に炎のパフォーマンスで素晴らしかったです。
フラダンスの時間が長かったので、もう少し配分が少なくても良かったです。
料理もちょうどいいタイミングで運ばれてきました。
思い出に残るディナーになりました。

The dinner cruise on Star of Honolulu was awesome. The crew were very welcoming and efficient. The dancers were terrific-we really enjoyed them and how close to the audience they were. But the food was the best part. Crab legs, beef and chicken with all the trimmings. Wonderful experience. Would highly recommend.

One of the joys of going to Hawaii is being able to see Presley. I have been a big fan since he was alive. I got to see him again this time. From a distance, this Presley looked quite similar to him. His physique, voice, and singing were nearly perfect. The venue was at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which is close to the hotel, and even better, there is a food court on the second floor of this building where we had dinner. He sang six songs, including "Blue Hawaii" and "My Way." His show can't be seen without going to Las Vegas, but this one is not inferior; at the end, you can take a photo together. I highly recommend it.

ハワイに行く一つの楽しみは、プレスリーに会えることです。彼が生きている頃から、大のファンでした。今回も会えました。今回のプレスリーは遠目には顔もよく似ていました。体形、声、歌も満点に近い存在でした。会場は　ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターにあり、ホテルから近くであり、さらにいいことはこの建屋の2階にはフードコートがあります、ここで夕食を済ませて行きました。ブルーハワイ、そして最後にマイウェーなど6曲も歌ってくれました。彼のショーはラスベガスに行かないと見れませんが、ここはそれに引け劣りません、最後には一緒に写真も撮ってくれます。おすすめです。

The Luau was amazing, food was great and the entire show was so entertaining!! Me and my partner had a great time. I definitely recommend!

Enjoyed the day very much. Dinner was very good with so many choices - not just your average luau food. The Show itself was worth the price of admission. Our seats were so close to the stage we could feel the heat from the torches. It was a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this tour to future Honolulu visitors.

Beautiful relaxing evening. Free-flowing drinks. Thoroughly enjoyable sail.

It was a great experience! The activities were fun and educational! Great family environment! Wonderful performances, amazing performers, good food and drinks! The best activity and experience on our vacation! You have to go!

My husband and I had a good time on the cruise. The food was good and the show was fun!

You know how you can never quite describe the atmosphere, moments and beauty of something? That was this experience. From a long distance traveler- this was once in a lifetime. Tell everyone you know and bring them with you. 10/10.

We enjoyed a dinner curated by Michel's while overlooking the breathtaking Ko'olau Mountains and Kaneohe Bay at the Kahaluu Fishpond! The homey atmosphere was impressive, and we were constantly moved by the incredible dancers performing right in front of us! The activities, including making tea leaf bracelets, tattoos, and hula lessons, were all first-time experiences that were so much fun. Every dish in the dinner course was delicious, and our driver was kind and safely transported us both ways. Reina, who managed the operations, was also very thoughtful. Thank you all for a wonderful evening!

絶景のコオラウ山脈とカネオヘベイに囲まれたカハルウフィッシュポンドを眺めながらミッシェルズ監修のディナーとフラ＆ファイアーダンスを楽しませていただきました！アットホームな演出が印象的で、素晴らしいダンサーの皆様がすぐ目の前で踊って下さるショーに終始感動しておりました！アクティビティのティーリーフブレスレット、タトゥーやフラレッスンも初めての体験でとても楽しかったです。ディナーコースも全皿美味しくいただきましたし、ドライバー様も往復安全運転で親切に送迎して下さり、オペレーションを仕切って下さったレイナさんのお心遣いもとても素敵でした。皆様素晴らしい夜を誠に有難うございました！

I arrived a little early, and the staff greeted me, allowing me to take photos with the hula dancers, enjoy the ukulele, and have some drinks. The food was delicious as well. I think it would be nice to have a bit more Hawaiian cuisine. The show was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was seated in the second row, center, so I could see the performers' expressions clearly. I was also able to take a photo with Michael and Elvis at the end. It was a different kind of enjoyment compared to the hula show at the Hilton.

少し早めに到着しましたが、受付の方に声掛けいただき、フラダンサーとの写真撮影・ウクレレ・飲み物などの対応を受けました。
食事も美味しかったです。もう少しハワイらしい料理が多いと良いかなとは思います。
ショーもすばらしく楽しく過ごせました。場所も２列目真ん中で表情まではっきりと見えました。
マイケル･エルビスとも最後に写真を一緒にとれました。
ヒルトンのフラショーとは違う楽しみ方ができ楽しめました。

Although there were few Japanese participants, I felt that it actually enhanced the atmosphere. The transportation and local staff were attentive, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any major issues.

The food and drinks were mainly Hawaiian and were decent; I don't think they were bad at all. The show combined traditional elements with entertainment very well, and I was never bored. The dancers were also very accommodating for photos.

Overall, I thought it was very good. I recommend it.

日本人の参加は少なかったですが、それがかえって雰囲気がでたように感じましたし、送迎、現地スタッフの方が気を配って下さり特に問題なく楽しめました。
食事と飲み物は、ハワイのものがメインでまずまずでしたが、悪くはなかったと思います。またショーは伝統的なものとエンター的なものがうまく合わり、全く退屈しませんでしたし、ダンサーの方も記念撮影にも心よく応じられてあかました。
総合的にとても良かったと思います。おすすめします。

I booked this on a whim (had seen a few recommendations from a travel group on Facebook). I am so glad I did!!! This was hands down our favorite thing we did. Our trip to PCC included transportation there and back, which was convenient because we didn’t rent a car. From the time we were dropped at the center to the time we arrived back at our drop off spot in Waikīkī, we were impressed. The story telling, the interactive demonstrations, the hospitality and excitement of everyone working at the center was nothing less than amazing. We ate at the restaurant called Pounders for lunch, the service was excellent and the food was some of the best we had our whole time here. We both learned so much about the Polynesian Cultures and the end show “Ha breathe of life” is one of the best live performances we’ve gone to. Anyone visiting should definitely book this, you won’t be disappointed! We spent one day at PCC, but I think you could definitely spend multiple days and really immerse yourself in each culture and spend time participating in all the activities!
