The cruise was excellent. We saw dolphins on the way out and on the way back. When we anchored we had about 2.5 hours to snorkel, jump off the boat and play with the various water equipment. The kids particularly enjoyed using the paddle board. The breakfast and lunch was great and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this trip.

We have attended luaus on other islands and the show at this luau was not impressive. The grounds were amazing , beautiful picture opportunities ....and the food was delicious!!! We were not impressed with the show. The seating was stadium seating which was extremely uncomfortable. The show was not interactive with audience......I believe the "host" was pre-recorded?
Again.....we've been to other islands and have been to much better.

The Aha 'Aina luau provides the ultimate luxury luau experience in the comfort and proximity of Waikiki. Located in the famous Pink Palace of the Pacific, Aha 'Aina doesn't disappoint. The views and outdoor seating are a beautiful backdrop to the evening. The meal is served with musical entertainment and a historical introduction of how the guitar and ukulele were introduced to the islands. This is a great luau for those who love great music and tasty food! The table service is wonderful and the food is excellent. The history of Waikiki comes alive on stage as the dancers take you through time from when Kamehameha united the islands, to the Royal Hawaiian hotel's first opening in 1927. Get ready for a treat, because this is not only a feast for your taste buds, but your eyes and ears as well!

Our tour had no enthusiasm and excitement in his voice. The crew seemed like this was a task. The Hawaiian dancers were good, the singer was good.
Had been on the Fern Grotto tour a few years ago and was much better.

I couldn't find the check-in location, and before I knew it, there was a pretty long line for check-in. Even with a reservation, you need to line up early to get good seats, so be careful.

As mentioned in other comments, I couldn't understand Japanese at all. However, the staff brought several people who could speak Japanese and were very considerate of us throughout the tour. It truly made me feel warm and was wonderful! The show was interactive, and the dinner buffet at sunset was incredibly satisfying in terms of both taste and scenery. Drinks were included too! I will cherish the commemorative photo they gave us at the end as a memory. Thank you very much!

We are a couple who visits Hawaii for about two weeks every year. For dinner, we usually go to restaurants we always visit or those listed in coupon books, but I remembered how much we enjoyed the cocktail show at the Rock-a-Hula show two years ago, so this year we decided to upgrade and participate in the Green Room & Dinner. We were warmly welcomed by the staff with smiles at the VIP entrance and guided to the Green Room backstage, where we started with a welcome drink of champagne and light snacks. I remember spending a relaxing time while enjoying a fresh fruit platter. After a polite greeting from the manager, we had a great time taking photos with Lady Gaga. Then, the manager began a backstage tour, showing us the dressing rooms, costumes, and stage equipment that we wouldn't normally see, which left my wife very impressed! Meanwhile, I was thrilled to see her enjoying herself... feeling grateful for participating. The staff preparing for the show were friendly, exchanging casual greetings, and at the end, the manager took a commemorative photo on stage. After that, we were guided to our seats in the front row of the VIP area in the center of the stage! I was thrilled, and the Hawaiian gourmet dinner was beautifully presented, rivaling even top restaurants, with each dish being delicious. The aloha spirit welcomed guests without fail! I was once again impressed. The best entertainment unfolded on stage, with Elvis's fun talk bringing laughter and emotion, leaving me deeply moved. I believe that experiencing it firsthand will give you the true thrill more than reading my post. For those visiting Hawaii for the first time and returning guests... there is no doubt that all guests will receive wonderful hospitality and a fantastic stage. Among them, the Green Room Dinner & Show offers a five-star experience that exceeds cost performance.
毎年、2週間ほどハワイを訪問しているリピーター夫婦です。ディナーはいつも立ち寄っているレストランやクーポンブックに掲載されているレストランなどで済ませるのですが、2年前ロックアフラショーのカクテルショーに参加し大変エンジョイ出来たのを思い出し、今年はグレードアップでグリーンルーム&ディナーに参加しました。VIPエントランスからスタッフの笑顔の歓迎を受け、バックステージにあるグリーンルームに案内され、ウエルカムドリンクのシャンパンと軽食でスタートしました。新鮮なフルーツの盛り合わせなど頂きながらゆったりとした時間が経っていったのを記憶しています。また、支配人から丁寧な挨拶の後、レディガガさんの登場で一緒に写真を撮ってもらったり楽しい時間を過ごしました。その後、支配人によるバックステージツアーが始まり普段見ることのできない楽屋や衣装、ステージ装置など案内と丁寧な説明に妻も大感激!その横で私は妻が楽しんでいる様子を見ながら・・・参加してよかったと感激?していました。ショーの準備をしているスタッフもフレンドリーで気軽に挨拶を交わし、最後はステージ上で支配人が記念撮影?その後客席に案内して頂きました。ステージ中央のVIP専用エリアの最前列!で感激、ハワイアングルメディナーは一流のレストランにも負けないくらいの素晴しい盛り付けで一品一品美味しい料理でした。抜かりなくゲストを歓迎するアロハスピリッツ!またまた感激。ステージ上では最高のエンタテイメントが繰り広げられ、プレスリーの楽しいトークで笑いあり感動あり、またまた大感激。私の投稿で読むより実際に体験していただければ本当の感激を実感して頂けると思います。ハワイ訪問が初めての方、リピーターの方々・・・すべてのゲストに素敵なおもてなしと素晴しいステージであることは間違いありません。その中でもグリーンルーム・ディナー&ショーはコストパフォーマンス以上の体験をさせてくれる五つ星のツアーです。
Thank you for visiting Rock Aloha Waikiki. We are all very happy to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your time with us. We look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii next year. The cast and show content may change, so we believe you will enjoy it again. Have a wonderful stay in Hawaii!

The young lady that delivered the leis met us as we exited the plane and arrived in the terminal. She was very friendly and offered to take our picture. The leis themselves were large, full leis that were very pretty. (A little heavy, due to the size.) Definitely worth it for my wife, who has put up with me for 20 years of marriage!
Aloha NC Hairston!
I am so glad that you two loved your leis! The both of you look marvelous and our deluxe leis are one-of-a-kind! I hope your trip to our beautiful islands was well worth it! Wishing you a wonderful and happy life,

I went with a friend who is learning hula♪
Since we wanted to take our time, we chose the "Deluxe Dinner Package."
It mentioned that it comes with three drinks, but we received a $25 card to order any drinks we liked. Although our bus driver wasn't Japanese, there was a Japanese driver who spoke to us in Japanese and brought us chopsticks★ As the reviews said, communication in Japanese was limited, but the lively atmosphere was really fun. A couple celebrating their anniversary was dancing nearby, and it was lovely〜★
The dance in the show was really wonderful, and I was happy to see my favorite hula under the starry sky♪
フラを習ってる友達と行きました♪
ゆっくり見たいでの「デラックス・ディナー・パッケージ」にしました。
ドリンク3杯付きと書いてありましたが、25ドル分のカードがもらえ、その中で好きなドリンクを注文する感じです。私たちのバスのドライバーではなかったのですが、ドライバーさんで日系の方がいて、日本語で話しかけてくれて、お箸を持ってきてくれました★口コミ通り日本語は通じなかったですが、ノリの良さはホントに楽しかったです。記念日のカップルが脇でダンスをしてて、素敵でした〜★
ショーのダンスはとっても素敵で、星空の下、大好きなフラが見れて幸せでした♪

I felt that waiting until it started was a bit of a waste of time. However, once the show began, it was great. Among them, Michael Jackson looked so much like the real thing with his mannerisms and gestures, and both his singing and dancing were excellent. "Over the Rainbow" was incredibly beautiful and moving. Lady Gaga also did her best. Elvis even came down to the audience to shake hands and throw out leis, which was a nice touch.
始まるまでに待ったされたのがチョット時間が勿体にいと感じました。でも、ショーが始まると良かったです。中でもマイケル、ジャクソンが段々見ているうちに本物の様に見える位癖とかしぐさがそっくりで歌も踊りも良かったです。オーバー、ザ、レインボーはすごく綺麗にはもって感動しました。レディー、ガガも頑張ってました。プレスリーも会場に下りてきて握手したりレイをかけたりサービス的でした。

I participated on the first night of my arrival in Hawaii. The final fire show was incredibly powerful and captivating. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I planned to immerse myself in the experience right from the first day, and it was definitely the right choice! There was a bit of time between when the venue opened and when the meal started, so I was hit by some drowsiness, but the food was very delicious, especially the meat.
ハワイ到着1日目の夜に参加しました。最後の火を使ったショーは最高に迫力があり見応えありました。ハワイが始めてだったこともあり、初日からハワイを感じられるように計画しましたが大正解でした♪会場してから食事が始まるまでに少し時間があったこともあり眠気に襲われてしまいましたが、食事もお肉がとても美味しかったです。

I attended on June 13th. I was disappointed that I arrived late to the venue and ended up with a seat at the back. The ritual of wrapping a whole pig in banana leaves and digging it out from the hot earth was impressive. The show by the seaside was unique to Hawaii, and everyone at the venue had a great time. The buffet meal was also satisfying.
6月13日に参加しました。会場に行く時間が遅くなり席が後ろになってしまったのが残念でした。豚1頭をバナナの葉でくるんで熱い土の中から掘り出す儀式は、圧巻でした。海辺のサイドでのショーは、ハワイならではで会場は、皆で盛り上がり楽しかったです。バイキングの食事も満足でした。

I went to this luau with my wife to celebrate our anniversary. The oceanfront location was great, and we were staying at the Wailea Beach Marriott so it was convenient. The food was great. I know a lot of people were not keen to try their "poi" but what's the point of travelling if you don't eat something different? I personally liked it when I ate it with the "lomilomi." The fire-knife dancer was AMAZING. It's crazy how he's not burning himself! They also had a lot of vendors you can purchase souvenirs from. My wife bought some jewelry. Highly recommended.

I didn't know what to expect before I got there, but they surprised me. The facility was very clean and organized, and the exhibitions were great. I learned so much about Hawaii's marine life, and they had a lot of unique species that only available in Hawaii.
I was impressed by the shark exhibition. I could be there all day watching these magnificent creatures. A perfect for everyone who is interested in the marine life. I went to the snorkel tour the next day, and I got to see some of the fish I saw at the Maui Ocean Center so it was very educational.
