Such a great time!

Reviewed by: Nicole, 2016/01/20

The Luau was amazing. The views were beautiful, the activities were fun, and the food was delicious. Also My mother is handicapped and it was very easy for her to get around in her motorized scooter. My husband and 2 year old son also had a blast. Overall well worth it and I would go again.

Best Ever

Reviewed by: Donna Langford, 2015/12/26

Paradise Cove is the very best Luau on the Hawaiian Islands. Veltra made reservations so easy and were excellent to work with. I felt very confident in them to provide a memory filled adventure. I highly recommend them.

Paradise Cove Luau Deluxe Package a must do...

Reviewed by: Mike & Jess Simpson, 2015/10/27

My wife and I had a great time at the Luau. We booked early and mentioned that we were celebrating our anniversary. We had booked the Deluxe package. Well we were greeted and received a lei and then escorted to our seats. He informed us of the activities and presented us with drink tickets and vouchers to buy at their store. We then took a canoe ride, took pictures with the exotic birds, checked out the Lei making. By this time we went to get drinks and noticed the marque scrolling and saw our names wishing us a Happy Anniversary it made my wife happy. They then called everyone over and the pig was dug up for everyone to see and smell as they paraded it by everyone. We then sat down and had dinner served to us. What a great meal and then the show began it was a great show even the audience members were picked and got envolved. All in all a good time had by all.

The best time ever!

Reviewed by: vanessa, 2015/10/18

As our first time in Hawaii, we couldn't have asked for a better host/guide than Cousin Mo! He kept us laughing and entertained the whole way there and back! As soon as we arrived we were greeted with a flower lei and a kukui nut lei. As we entered we were offered a Mai Tai and the option to take a photo with a hula girl/fire dancer. As you go in you see this breathtaking view overlooking the ocean. And there's so many activities to do, so you're never bored. Than right before the meal you're entertained by hula dancers while two men pull the feast pig from underground who than walk around displaying the pig. As recommended we mixed the "Poi" with soy sauce and ate it with the pulled pork; So delicious! During the meal we were entertained with music, dancers and a fire show. The ride back home was just as entertaining, as I said, thanks to Cousin Mo I will always think of him when i hear Whitney Houston. Definitely would recommend the Deluxe package! The best time ever!

This is the second time I've attended the Luau at Paradise Cove and I was NOT disappointed! The fun begins the moment you step on the bus. I took my daughter and her husband and they enjoyed themselves as much as I did.

Lots of Fun!!!

Reviewed by: JodieB, 2015/07/30

We had a fantastic time at Paradise Cove Luau. We almost were not going to book this Luau due to reading some bad reviews, but so glad we did! As soon as we boarded the bus to get there, the tour guide (Cousin Katie) made the trip so much fun. There were a variety of activities to participate in before the Luau commenced, such as canoe rides, flower lei and headpiece making, archery, bowling and temporary tattoos. The Luau itself was amazing! The dancers were great and the costumes very colorful. The food was very nice and the pork especially yummy! I would definitely recommend this, especially for families.

Thanks to our driver & host for making even the drive back so enjoyable.

Wonderful luau atmosphere! Beautiful location!!

Reviewed by: Katie Morales, 2015/06/16

We loved this luau! Our tour guide, Cousin Rich, was HILARIOUS and memorized everyone's name on the bus!! He took great care of us, and even sang us a lullaby on the way home...he's got one heck of a voice!

The games before the luau started were short & fun, and the hula dancers were great!! This was the first activity on our Honeymoon, and we were not disappointed. The emcee even mentioned our names during the show and had us get up to dance near the stage to the Hawaiian wedding song...it was an amazing experience. The food was good, the show was excellent, and the location was like a postcard! Singers, hula dancers, and fire twirlers were all part of the evening, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I highly recommend this luau!!

  • Gorgeous

  • Me & my hubby!

  • The dance show

  • We were so excited to see this announcement on the screen near the bar! It made us feel so special!!

Great location (kinda long drive from Waikiki) beach front, lots of activities before dinner, show was good, did 2 good, nothing made it stand out compared to other luaus, although the host on the bus ride was hilarious, remembered all of our names, telling jokes and gave us all a hug after dropping us off.....

Great way to end

Reviewed by: cali4nia, 2015/05/27

My husband and I attended on our last full day at Hawaii and I am sooooooooo happy that we did. I think this was a great way to end our vacation even though we hated having to leave the beautiful island! This place, the venue, the set-up, activities, dinner, drinks and show was just AMAZING to say the least. The staff, especially cousin Rich(ie), he was the best bus guide/tour guide/table attendent/just overall everything the best. He was able to memorize all of our names before we arrived at Paradise Cove and there were at least 50 minimum on the bus. Even more amazing during the festivities he checked on everyone to make sure we all had what we needed and if we had any questions/help he assisted. Now that's what I call excellent customer service! (there were hundreds of other people at the luau). To sum it all up, upon return to Hawaii I will definitely go back to Paradise Cove. Best Lava Flow drinks, met some great people, fantabulous show and created lifetime memories !!!!!!!

What a great time we had at Paradise Cove. The activities were fun and informative. Dinner was yummy. I really enjoyed the poi and coconut milk dessert. This brought back memories of when as a child I was at Schofield Barracks (Dad stationed there.) for 4 years. So glad we booked this tour with Veltra.

Deluxe package is the only way to go!

Reviewed by: Maiwayalways1, 2015/04/03

The deluxe package is fantastic. It's pricey but well worth the investment. We had three children with us and the seating was stage side. A great view for the children. The activities were great for our children and the Lava flows were great sipping while they were having fun. The meal was served to us by waitresses and the show was wonderful. We have been to the Polynesian cultural center for their deluxe luau and show and these two luaus were very comparable. Food selection was wider@ the cultural center but the shows were phenomenal. The seating was front row but set back further from stage@ the cultural center but still was entertaining. The kids really enjoyed the fire dance and to see it up close was a treat for all of us. Overall this is a great choice for a luau and the food was good.
