During our week on Oahu, we always attend a lu'au and our favorite is Paradise Cove! This was an annual gathering of Aloha Joe's Radio & TV listeners who join us from all over the planet. We all agree that the food & entertainment at Paradise Cove is THE BEST.

Choosing Paradise Helicopters was the best thing I've done while in Hawaii. The staff was courteous and very professional. You knew right away you and your family were in good hands. The ride was superb and worth the money you pay! They don't charge as much as other companies do!!

The meal was fine but the entertainment and the "carnival" atmosphere was the best. We have girls 12-20 years of age and each thoroughly enjoyed the vendors, the activities, the interactive things to do before the dinner and show. The meal starts at 7:00 PM but people must show up early (around 4:45 the gates open) to enjoy the cultural activities prior. First rate and all included in the price. My daughters all appreciated the good-looking performers, especially the "Fire King".

The Japanese staff explained everything from start to finish, so I was able to participate with peace of mind.
There were waves, and I got seasick, feeling quite ill even in the water. But I was really happy to see so many dolphins!
For lunch, I had a burger made by the captain! It was incredibly delicious!!!
I also got a tattoo sticker, which made for a nice memory!
I only had a little time for hula, but since it's not something I get to do often, I was glad to experience it.
It truly became a wonderful memory!
日本人の方が最初から最後まで説明してくれるので、安心して参加できました☆
波があったので、船酔いしてしまい、海の中でも波がひどく酔ってしまいました。でも、イルカがたくさんいてすごく嬉しかったです!
昼食は船長が作ったバーガーを食べました!すごく美味しかったです!!!
タトゥーシールも付けてもらえて良い記念になりました!
フラは少しだけの時間でしたが、あまりできないの体験なので、フラができてよかったです♪
本当に楽しい思い出になりました☆

This is about my 80th trip to Hawaii! I mainly come here for golf. Recently, prices have gone up everywhere in Hawaii, and in the metropolitan area, the Aqua Line has become cheaper at 800 yen. It’s more cost-effective to play golf around Chiba Prefecture for about 7,000 yen, and the facilities can't even be compared to Japan's luxurious golf courses. Among the few options in Hawaii, there are some reasonably priced courses where the fairway maintenance is on par with Japanese golf courses. I've played at Coral Creek several times, but the roads can be confusing, so I recommend renting a car navigation system or using a smartphone map to get there.
ハワイは約80回目位!
もっぱらゴルフに来ています。
ハワイは最近はどこも値段が上がり、首都圏ならアクアラインも800円と安くなり、千葉県あたりで7000円程度でゴルフした方が安上がりで設備にいたっては日本の贅沢なゴルフ場とは比較しようがありません。
そんな中で数少ないハワイの中ではまあまあ、お手頃でフェアウェイのメンテナンスも日本のゴルフ場並みにメンテされているゴルフ場。
何度かコーラルクリークでプレーしましたが、道がわかりにくいので、カーナビを借りられるか、スマホのマップを参照に行かれると良いと思います。

What a fun night. From the running commentary on the way there to the Chief who is hilarious, what a great sense of humour! My daughter and I loved the way the luau incorporated songs and dance from all of the Polynesian islands. Really well done. The whole audience were involved throughout. The location was fabulous with the cliff face on the one side, the ocean and Rabbit Island on the other. Beautiful.

First, I recommend securing a spot. The area near the wave pool is a great choice!
There is surprisingly little shade, so aim for the shade of the trees!
There are also plenty of slides, which are a lot of fun. Shaka has appeared on TV, so definitely check it out! The prices are reasonable, and I'm satisfied!
まずは場所の確保をオススメします。波のプール近くがオススメですよ
日陰が意外と少ないので木の陰を狙って下さい!
スライダーもたくさんあって楽しいです。シャカはTVにも出ているので是非!

This was my first time in Hawaii. I signed up for this tour because I wanted to see authentic hula dancing. When I got on the designated large bus at the hotel, it turned out we were the only Japanese people. The guide's announcements were all in English. When we arrived at the venue, I had a bad feeling as there were about 3,000 to 4,000 participants, almost 100% of whom were from Western countries, and I think there were probably fewer than three groups of Japanese people. The show was wonderful, but if you're not used to foreigners and not quite proficient in English, you might feel overwhelmed.
初めてのハワイ。本場のフラダンスが見たくてこのツアーを申し込みました。ホテルで指定の大型バスに乗ったらなんと日本人は私たちだけ。ガイドの案内もすべて英語オンリー。不吉な予感のまま会場についたら全体で軽く3~4千人はいる参加者はほぼ100%欧米の方で日本人はたぶん3組以下だったと思います。ショーはすばらしかったのですが外人なれしていて英語が相当達者な人でないとたぶんめげてしまうかも。

Basically, everything is in English. Honestly, we couldn't enjoy it much since we don't understand English. The show is very interactive, with a strong tendency to bring audience members on stage for fun conversations, which might not be suitable for those who want to see Polynesian dance. I think it would be very enjoyable for those who are fluent in English, have a good sense of humor, and are comfortable dancing in front of others. The staff was kind. There were several changes to the pickup location and time since the reservation, but they accommodated us when we informed them that there was a person in a wheelchair.
基本、すべて英語です。英語がわからない我々は正直あまり楽しめませんでした。
ショーも参加型のショーで観客を舞台に上げて楽しく会話をするといった傾向が強く、ポリネシアンダンスを見たいという方には不向きかもしれません。
英語が堪能でノリがよく人前で踊るのも平気という方にはとても楽しいと思います。
スタッフの方は親切でした。
予約時からピックアップ場所や時間が何回か変更になりましたが、車いすの人間がいることを伝えると対応していただけました。

I had a reservation for 12:40 PM, but when I arrived early, they moved my start time up to exactly noon, and I ended up playing alone. While I was getting ready at the 10th tee, the group of four in front of me kindly let me go ahead, and I was able to finish the front nine in about an hour and a half. Since it was not crowded, I was able to practice my approaches and putting several times along the way, and I was very satisfied.
午後零時40分の予約でしたが、早めに到着したところ、インスタートを正午ちょうどに繰り上げてくれ、1人で回ることとなりました。10番ティで準備していると前の4人組がお先にどうぞということになり、1時間半程度でハーフを終えることができました。すいていたため、途中でアプローチやパットを何度も練習でき、大満足でした。

It's a water slide that feels like it's not in Japan! A couple in their late 20s had a great time!
However, even with the all-you-can-drink option, I honestly only had about two drinks.
As for the lunch buffet, it might be better not to have high expectations for the price?! There’s plenty of junk food available, so that was totally fine for me.

I went for the first time.
It was a Saturday, but it was not crowded, so it was nice not to have to wait in line.
However, not all facilities are open all the time, so it might not be ideal for those who want to visit the same facility multiple times.
Also, if you have small children, the places to play are limited, so the cost-performance ratio decreases quite a bit. I took my 4-year-old, and while there were plenty of options in the children's pool, we were able to have a good time.
初めて行きました。
土曜日でしたが空いていて、並ばず混まずで、よかったです。
ただし、全ての施設が常時開いているのではないので、同じ施設に何度も行きたい人にはいまいちかも。
また、子供が小さい場合は、遊べるところが限られるのでコスパはかなりさがりますが、4歳児を連れていきましたが子供用プールも充実していたので、それなりに遊べました。

I visited with my 7-year-old, 4-year-old, and 7-month-old children. They had a decent time at the wave pool and the kids' pool, but the other activities like water slides seemed unsuitable for them. I want to let them try those when they are a bit older!
This time, we used a plan that included transportation and free drinks, but the counter for redeeming drinks at the food court was not open very often, and we waited in line for about 30 minutes... Lunch can only be purchased at that food court, so there was always a long line. Since outside food is completely prohibited, I wish there were more dining options available! The food was also not that great...
Additionally, there is hardly any shade, so I recommend that families with small children secure a paid space.
Children in upper elementary school might enjoy it enough.
7歳、4歳、7ヵ月の子どもを連れて利用しました。
波の出るプールやキッズ用プールは、そこそこ楽しめましたが、その他のウォータースライダー等のアクティビティは、うちの子どもたちには不向きだったようです。もっと大きくなってから挑戦させたいです!
今回、送迎とフリードリンク付きのプランを利用しましたが、ドリンクを引き換えるフードコートの窓口があまり開いておらず、30分くらい並んで待ちました。。。ランチも、そのフードコートでしか購入出来ないので、常に長蛇の列。持込みが全く出来ないので、もっと食事が出来る設備が欲しかったです!味もイマイチです。。。
それから、日陰がほとんどないので、小さなお子さんがいる方は、有料のスペースを確保することをおすすめします。
小学校高学年のお子さまくらいからなら、十分楽しめるかもしれません。

I was surprised that the attractions were operated on a timed basis. I think it was probably due to the New Year period and the lack of staff. I expected there to be fewer visitors than there actually were, so I thought I could ride multiple times, but in the end, because of the timed system, there were crowds at the popular attractions, and the wait time was about 20 to 30 minutes, which was disappointing.
If you purchase the most expensive ticket, you can experience the surfing attraction. I recommend that for those who want to surf.
アトラクションの運営が時間制になっていたのは驚きでした。おそらく、お正月時期で、監視員が少なかったからだと思います。利用客が思ったほど少なかったので、何回も滑れるかと思ってましたが、結局、時間制だったため、人気のアトラクションに人が貯まっていて待ち時間が20~30分くらいあったことが残念でした。
一番高いチケットを購入すると、波乗りのアトラクションを体験することができます。波乗りしたい方はそちらの方をお勧めします。

It's a really fun water park that meets expectations! My daughter (8 years old), who loves thrilling rides, was very satisfied with the exciting water slides suitable for adults as well. Even with small children, they can play in the kids' pool, and there are plenty of reclining chairs to relax in. The food is just light snacks like pizza and fries, and the taste is okay. By the way, the drinks are mostly carbonated, and other than Pepsi, they taste like diluted syrup for shaved ice, which isn't very good. Food and drinks are not allowed to be brought in, so let's give up on lunch for the day! Instead, let's have a blast playing!
期待通りかなり面白いウォーターパークです!!
大人も十分エキサイティングできるウォータースライダーも含め娘(8歳)は絶叫系の乗り物が大好きなだけにかなり大満足したようです。
小さい子供がいても子供用プールで遊べるし、リクライニングチェアーも数が多いのでゆっくり休むことも可能。食事はピザやポテトなど軽食だけど味はまあまあです。
ちなみに飲み物は炭酸ものばかりだし、ペプシ以外はかき氷のシロップを薄めたような味でおいしくないです。飲み物、食べ物は持ち込み禁止なのでこの日のランチはあきらめましょう!
