The Luau was very nice, good food, exciting, and romantic. My husband and I really hate buffets because people like putting their hands directly into the food. Which is totally gross but all luaus are buffets. Even though it was against our norm friends advised us when going to Hawaii it was one thing we just had to do. We decided to try it even though we are super against buffets. I must say we were wrong and we were totally glad we went to this one. We reserved it on my birthday evening and it was really romantic. It was on a roof top so you could see the beach and sun setting, the food was really good, the staff, dancers, entertainment were great and kept our attention. Everyone was so friendly and staff was very attentive. It was the most exciting, fun, and romantic birthday I ever had. I must add not one person placed their dirty little paws in the food which was a big relief for us.
Thank you all for making it the most remarkable and memorable birthday ever.

Not bad. Food and entertainment in different areas. We have been to a few on the beach on Oahu and Maui that were excellent. This one rates OK. Nice grounds but came for Luau.

We had an awesome time and even though I originally dreaded the bus ride it was actually a lot of fun. Our guide, Kai, was so helpful and we had a blast with him. I highly recommend this luau and your services.

The event started at 17:30, but I lined up for the general seating from 17:00 and was able to be shown to a seat quite far forward. The children's buffet was ready to eat right away, so I had my child go get some, and I enjoyed it as a snack. The main buffet was delicious as well. I got a bit sleepy during the middle of the show, but the fire performances were impressive.
17:30開始ですが17:00からジェネラル席の列に並んで待ったところ、だいぶ前の席を案内してもらえました。
子供用のビュッフェはすぐに食べられるので子供に取りに行ってもらって、
つまみがわりにいただきました。メインビュッフェもどれも美味しかったです。
ショーは中盤眠くなりましたがファイア系は迫力ありますね。

the food was good and all the activities but after we finished eating it poured down rain .Those of us sitting out in the open tried to get to cover , There was room in a covered eating place and they would not let anyone in .After the rain quit then they provided ponchos for us ( a little too late )

The quality of the performers' impersonations was surprisingly high, and the production was excellent, making it an enjoyable show overall. However, the group of guests in the front row was drunk, and it was very unpleasant that they kept crossing in front of me during the show, either to go to the restroom or for other reasons.
出演者のモノマネのクオリティが予想以上に高く、また、演出も素晴らしくてショーとしては十分楽しめました。ただ、前席の団体客が酔っ払っており、トイレに行くのか、ショーの真っ最中に代わる代わる目の前を横切って行くのが非常に不愉快でした。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We appreciate your valuable feedback. I will report it to the person in charge and we will work on improvements. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.

The photo service was supposed to be included, but it was not reflected in the organizer's list, and I was asked to pay for the photos.
The parking ticket is paid at the end when exiting, but please note that the payment method is only by credit card.
The show was very nice and had a great atmosphere by the sea.
Photo service がincluded のはずなのに、主催者側のリストに反映されておらず、写真代を要求されました。
駐車券は最後に出庫時に払いますが、支払方法はクレジットカードのみでしたので注意が必要です。

The luau is just average. The show portion of the luau is in a "theater" type setting making it seem removed from the luau. The food was ok. They did try hard to accommodate my food allergy and prepared a separate plate for me.

I have experienced various luau shows, but this one felt a bit lacking. The structure was stretched out, with a lot of band performances in between the hula. The meal was a 60 out of 100. I left early, so perhaps it got more exciting in the second half.
いろいろなルアウショーを体験しましたが、ここのルアウショーはちょっと寂しかったです。間延びした構成で、フラの合間のバンド演奏が多かった。食事は60点。途中で帰ったので、もしかしたら後半で盛り上がったのかもしれないですね。

I had originally booked standard seats, but on the day of the show, I was able to upgrade to better seats for an additional fee. I'm glad I did, as it was great to see the performance from a good spot. The story was easy to follow, and I thoroughly enjoyed the various dances. The buffet was delicious too! Next time, I hope to spend a whole day here.
スタンダードの席で申し込んでいましたが、当日ショーの座席だけ追加料金でアップグレードすることができました。せっかくなので、良い席で見れて良かったです。
ストーリーも分かりやすく、いろいろなダンスが楽しめて大満足でした。
ビュッフェも美味しかったです!次回は丸1日こちらで遊びたいなと思いました。

I thought my aunt, who teaches dance, would really like this, so I signed up. The meal was a buffet, so I didn't have high expectations, but it was actually quite good. They piled a lot of big crab on my plate, but I couldn't finish it.
The show was mesmerizing, with a handsome guy and a lovely woman. The dancers had beautifully toned bodies. The story was easy to understand, and my aunt was so moved that she teared up.
I'm really glad I participated, and I would love to see it again if I have the chance. However, next time I will dress warmly. It was incredibly cold while watching the show, and I was shivering. I couldn't even enjoy the complimentary ice cream...
ダンスを教えている叔母が好きそうだなと思い申し込みました。
食事はブッフェなので、あまり期待せずにいきましたが、全然悪くなかったです。大きな蟹をお皿にたくさん盛ってくれましたが、食べ切れませんでした。
ショーは、イケメンのお兄さんと可愛らしい女性にうっとりしました。ダンサーたちの鍛え上げられた肉体はとても美しかったです。ストーリーは分かりやすく、感極まった叔母は涙ぐんでいました。
参加して本当に良かったし、機会があればまた見たいです。ただ、次に行くときは厚着していきます。ショーを見ている間、ものすごく寒くて震えながら見ました。サービスのアイスは食べられませんでした…。

I was worried about the weather, but even if it rained during this time, it stopped quickly (raincoats were provided). The sunset behind the stage was very beautiful. There were many participants due to Christmas, but the seats were close, allowing us to fully enjoy the show. The show was authentic and very impressive.
天気が心配でしたが、この時期は雨が降ってもすぐにやみました(カッパが配られました。)
舞台のバックでは夕景が非常にきれいでした。
クリスマスで非常に参加者が多かったですが、席も近くショウを堪能できました。
ショウは本格的で見ごたえ十分です。

We went to this luau with our two adult daughters. It was such a beautiful place to explore! We were able to walk around and take pictures. The dinner was good and nicely displayed. There was a little of something for everyone to like. The show was very good and entertaining. It got a little hard to sit for that long on the forward slanted seating though. I would recommend for a fun night.

I chose the deluxe type because I thought it would provide good seats to watch the show. Indeed, I had a great seat in the sixth row from the front, right in the center. The deluxe package included not only the show but also special meal vouchers for dishes like crab and ice cream, although I didn't use them (I had already eaten a bit too much). The buffet area was separate from the standard one. Dinner starts at 6 PM, but they cleaned up quickly, and by before 7 PM, there was only a little left. I guess the main focus is on carving the meat. The food was just okay. The crab had about four to five legs, and the Japanese guests sitting next to me seemed to enjoy it. Unfortunately, the downside is that you can't take any photos during the show. I wished I could capture a few memories. Also, it takes over an hour from Waikiki, so the distance is a bit of a concern. However, the show is enjoyable as it has a story format and lasts just under an hour and a half.
デラックスタイプを申し込んだのは、ショーを見る席が良いと思ったからでした。その通りに中央の前から6列目の良い席でした。デラックスはショーだけでなく、食事もカニやアイスクリーム等の特別料理の引き換え件がついていましたが、私は利用しませんでした。(ちょっと食べすぎになっていたので)、バイキング会場もスタンダードとは分けられていました。食事は6時からスタートですが、片付けが早く7時前には少しだけになっていました。お肉の切り分けがメインなのでしょうか。料理はまあまあという感じです。カニは足が4~5本程度あり、横の席の日本人の方々は美味しいと食べられていました。残念なのは、やはりショーでの写真が一切取れないことです。思い出に少し写真が取れれればと思いました。またワイキキからは1時間以上かかるので、少し遠いところにあるのも気になる点ではあります。でもショーは物語仕立ててで楽しめるものです。1時間半弱です。

The first time was in mid-June last year, and the venue was fully booked, so we had to wait in line to get in. Our seats were standard and located at the back. This time, since it was January 3rd, I was prepared for even more crowds than last year, but it was quite empty. I booked good seats, so we were able to see the show right in front of us, and my daughter danced on stage, creating wonderful memories. I was very satisfied.
1度目は昨年6月中旬で満席状態で会場入りも結構並びました。席もスタンダードだったので後ろでした。今回は1月3日ということもあり昨年以上に混雑を覚悟して来ましたが、空き空きで席もいい席を申し込んだので、目の前でショーを見ることができ娘もステージで踊っていい思い出になり大変満足しました

I enjoyed both the hula dance and the impersonation show. Since it was Christmas, they also sang Christmas songs. The children seemed to have a great time, especially enjoying the Michael Jackson dance. The meal before the show was delicious, and the location at the Royal Hawaiian Center was very easy to find, which was great.
フラダンスとモノマネショーの両方を見れて、楽しかったです。クリスマスだったので、クリスマスソングも歌ってくれました。子供たちは、マイケルジャクソンのダンスがすごかった~とそれなりに楽しめたようです。ショーの前の食事も美味しかったですし、場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンターということでとても分かりやすくてよかったです。

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that it had poured down during the luau but according to Paradise Cove Luau, it is their operating procedure to for their staff to distribute ponchos to their guests.
We hope that on your next visit to Hawaii, the weather conditions will be better and the luau experience will be much more memorable.
