I was able to sit in the front row when I arrived on time.
The show featured wonderful hula dancing, powerful male fire performances, and a packed schedule that made the time fly by.
The food was served buffet-style, which allowed me to adjust the amount I ate, and I thought that was great. The taste was fairly good.
集合時間通りに行ったら、一番前の席に座ることができました。
ショーの内容は素敵なフラダンス、
迫力満点の男性の火を使ったダンスと盛りだくさんの内容であっという間の時間でした。
お料理はブュッフェで、自分が食べる量を調節できたのでよかったと思います。味はそれなりに美味しかったです。

Short and sweet ... the tour of the grounds was lovely; the food and mai tai's were superior; but the dances needed some umph! That was a sad ending to an event that started great.

Although I have no English skills at all, I participated in the "English Guide." At first, I was anxious, but even if I didn't understand much of the announcements on the bus, I could somehow keep track of the time!
I was happy to have a light snack and warm drinks at the summit. There were a few clouds, but I was able to see the sunrise, and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at the golf course (the guava juice was too diluted with ice!). There were three options to choose from for breakfast.
I made a confirmation call after my flight was delayed, which was past 19:30. The paper said it was okay until 23:00, but when I called, I was told it ended at 19:00! I was a bit flustered, but on the day of the event, I was able to participate without any problems.
I was more bothered by the cold on the bus ride there than at the summit!

We did the full day PCC package and definitely loved it. However, its all about the tour guide. If you go try to get cousin Main he was extremely knowledgeable and manage to get us in the front row for all the events. Also, learning about how the majority of the proceeds go to student tuition it is a nice to know. Lastly, the HA fire show definitely is one of, if not, the best fire show luau ever.

After reading so many reviews, we expected this experience to be great; however, we found most of the evening to be okay at best. The prime rib and seafood, "prime" dining, is not good. Much of the hot food was luke-warm, the roast beef...I mean prime rib...although pretty sure it was roast beef, was way overcooked and just gross, and much of the food was slimy and just inedible. There was one hot seafood item which was somewhat hot/somewhat still frozen, and my husband said was disgusting. It was not prime dining. I would suggest skipping dining there altogether.
We had some time to walk around; however, most of the exhibits are just artifacts or movies/shows. The Samoa live show was interesting and entertaining, but the videos were boring and I can't imagine what you could spend an entire day there doing (we went late at 4 PM and had plenty of time). The "Ha, Breathe of Life" show was the best part for sure. The show was entertaining; however, it was very long. We went to another luau and show earlier in our trip, booked through the cruise line, and I would say that show was better. "Ha, Breathe of Life" was very long and had a lot of repetitive dancing. They do a part of the show for each Island, so after awhile the dancing gets repetitive. Some aspects were really neat: fire dancing, a few of the dances with props, etc, but it would have been better if it hadn't been so extremely long and repetitive.
Overall, I can't say that I would recommend this experience. If I did, I would recommend the show, without eating dinner. Additionally, be prepared to pay extra for everything and have things that cost money constantly offered to you (I understand, it is a vacation destination, but for the Polynesian Cultural Center, which doesn't allow tipping and is all about culture, it just seemed weird after awhile). Next time we go to Hawaii, we will try a luau closer to the resort area, and skip the Polynesian Cultural Center.

The show is authentic, and the activities are plentiful. I love this halau!!
Compared to hotel shows, the time commitment is longer, but I recommend it for those who want to see elegant hula!
However, there are basically few Japanese participants, and it's English-only. Well, you can manage even if you can't speak much.

This time, I attended a dinner show for the first time in Waikiki.
It was a standard plan, but I was able to enjoy the dance performances and the food was reasonably delicious.
However, the time between receiving the welcome drink and going to the buffet was too long, which was quite exhausting.
Depending on the seating order, some guests were served a bit earlier, but it would have been better if they could have accommodated us sooner.
Since I had an alcoholic welcome drink, I ended up getting tipsy before going to get the food.
The show itself was very satisfying.
今回ディナーショーはワイキキで初めて行きました。
スタンダードのプランでしたが、
十分にダンスを知覚で見れて料理もそれなりに美味しくいただきました。
ただ、ウェルカムドリンクがきてから、ビュッフェをとりにいくまでの時間が長過ぎてしんどかったです。
席の順番によってはやや早い方もいましたが、もっと早めにたいおうしてもらえると良かったです。

Since I stayed at the King Kamehameha Hotel, I had no travel time at all. I wasn't sure where the reception was and got a little lost, but I saw a line forming, so I joined it. While waiting, I was asked if I wanted to buy a lei and had the chance to take some photos.
After checking in, I went to the venue next to the beach and made my way to my seat with a drink in hand. The Mai Tai was really delicious. I ordered various drinks and enjoyed them. The staff guided us to our seats as we arrived. Once seated, I chatted with the people next to me and across from me while waiting for the show to start. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but everyone was kind and spoke to me.
The show was entirely in English, but it was enjoyable to watch, so I found it interesting. It was an impressive performance.
However... since it was outdoors, there was a downpour, and I received a raincoat from the staff to watch the show. The show proceeded as scheduled despite the rain. Even in the downpour, I laughed with those around me, saying, "Wow, the rain is intense!" This became a good memory.
The food was delicious, especially the meat, taro, and poke. I think it's better to take a lot at once so you can enjoy the show at a leisurely pace. There are many types of drinks, so I believe you'll find a favorite.
I think this Hawaiian show offers an experience of "Hawaii" that you can't find on Oahu.
I would love to participate again if I stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel.
キングカメハメハホテルに泊まって参加だったため、移動時間がまったくありません。
受付の場所がわからず、少し迷ってしまいましたが行列ができていたので並びました。並んでいる間はレイを購入するか聞かれたり、写真をとったりしながら並びます。
受付後、ビーチ横にある会場に行き、ドリンクを片手に席まで行きます。マイタイがとってもおいしかったです。いろいろなドリンクを注文してたくさん飲みました。席は来た人から係の人が案内してくれます。席に着くと隣の人や向かいに座っている外国の方と話しながらショーを始まるのを待ちます。英語があまり話せないので不安でしたが、皆さん優しく話してくれました。
ショーはすべて英語ですが、見て楽しめるので面白かったです。
迫力のあるショーです。
しかし。。。
野外の為、スコールになってしまい、係の人にカッパをもらってショーを見ました。
ショーは雨天決行の為、普通にショーは進みます。
スコールでも周りの人と「雨すごいね」と笑いながら見ました。
これも良い思い出です。
食事もおいしく、お肉、タロイモ、ポケがとてもおいしかったです。
一回でたくさん取ったほうがゆっくりショーが見れますので良いと思います。

Dear Sakamai,
Thank you very much for attending the Luau show. I imagine it must have been quite challenging in the rain, but in Hawaii, we consider it a blessing. It means "the rain washes away the town, the people, and the hearts, making everything clean." We proceeded with the show with smiles, and it warms my heart to hear that you have good memories of it.
The show at the King Kamehameha Hotel received high praise, and it is a place we hold very dear in our long-standing relationship. We hope you will visit us again. It would be wonderful for us if you could enjoy plenty of food and drinks!
With Aloha.

The dinner was amazing, the filet was cooked perfectly and the crab legs kept on coming. We got a complimentary mai tai that was actually a very good drink (not that pre-mixed yucky stuff) and also ordered the $40 bottle of champagne. When dinner was finished, they put on a Polynesian show within the cabin that was loads of fun. Unfortunately the sunset was blocked by cloud cover but the show made up for it. The waitress was fantastic and the room supervisor was very attentive. Would definitely do this again! An additional note: they took the usual souvenir photo and charged $27 which we thought was way over the top...but it was framed beautifully (book-bound style) and ended up being the best photo of our entire honeymoon!! Worth every penny!

This was our first luau experience and it was fantastic. Transportation was included, the bus was on time and comfortable. When we arrived, they took a photo that had a beautiful back drop (amazing scenery with the mountain and the ocean), photo was $10 and quite decent quality. There were fun pre-show activities and drinks available. The buffet was good, we paid for the middle of the road package which was worth it. The emcee was funny and personable and the show was very entertaining, the woman sitting next to us said that they had been to several luaus and this was by far the best fire show they'd seen. We were called onto stage because it was our honeymoon and they gave me a nice flower bouquet. Overall it was really a great experience! The whole staff worked hard to make the night a good one.

When we first booked this tour it was at the recommendation of my parents who had visited a few years previously. My husband and I were originally going to explore the center on our own, however, after spending an hour on the bus with Jermaine (hope I spelled that right) and learning that he was giving the tour, we decided to pay a little extra and join the tour group. Best investment we made on our vacation. Not only was Jermaine knowledgeable, friendly, and seriously hilarious, but he got us to all the shows and we saw more than if we had tried to navigate the center ourselves. Highly recommend this place to everyone, and pay the extra for a guide. Well worth it.
