Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

What you'd want in a Luau!

Reviewed by: Catherine

I loved the Paradise Cove Luau! It's location is beautiful! A sunset party on a private beach is a great way to start off your Hawaiian vacation! I went to the luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center years ago, and the festivities were very nice, but there were no cocktails, and no beach. At Paradise Cove, it really felt like a party. I even got a Hula certificate for coming on stage to learn! We booked the Orchid (middle) level, and it seemed just right. I love the orchid leis that we received. If there was one thing I would like to change, it was that even though 3 drinks were "included" in my package, almost every drink still cost $1-$6 extra. I expected only to pay gratuity out-of-pocket when I got there. Overall, though, I had a great time!

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「パラダイス・コーブ 」開放的なオーシャンフロントで本場の雰囲気を味わえるショーやサンセット鑑賞＜現地集合可／コオリナ・リゾート内＞

I highly recommend it!!! オススメです！！！

Reviewed by: とん

I was a bit anxious after reading that there were mostly English speakers and few Japanese participants, but the staff explained things in broken Japanese, which was helpful. Although the conversations on the bus were mostly in English, they provided a schedule in Japanese, which made me feel at ease.

In the session I attended, there were three groups of Japanese participants. Even though I don't understand English at all, I was able to enjoy the overseas atmosphere and had a valuable experience.

Before the show started, we had the opportunity to go canoeing and encountered sea turtles. It was a fun and delightful experience, including getting a tattoo.

There was also time to have a meal before the show began. The fried chicken was excellent. During the show, when my drink ran out, the staff kindly went to get more drinks, allowing me to fully enjoy the show at a leisurely pace.

体験談に英語ばかり、日本人が少ない。と書き込みがあり、不安でしたが、スタッフの方が片言の日本語で説明してくださいますし、バスの中でのお話は、英語だらけですが、一日のスケジュールを日本語案内のメモを配ってくださいますし、安心です。
私の参加した回は、３組の日本人の方がいました。
英語の全くわからない私でしたが、海外の雰囲気・ノリを味わえ貴重な体験でした。
ショーが始まるまで、カヌー体験をしウミガメに出会えました。タトゥーを書いてもらったり、楽しいうれしい体験でした。

ショーが始まる前に食事をとりに行く時間があります。フライドチキン絶品です。ショーの最中に飲み物がなくなるとスタッフの方が気を利かして飲み物をとりに行ってくださり、ゆっくりとショーを満喫できました。

It was incredibly fun! 超絶に楽しかった・・！

Reviewed by: ぼん

I had an amazing time at a large pool in Australia before, so I was determined to go to one in Hawaii this time.

I signed up for the cheapest tour, which only included admission and transportation, and it turned out to be a fantastic decision! I was able to focus entirely on enjoying the attractions without wasting time waiting in lines for things like food.

While bringing in anything other than water is prohibited, the entrance security seems to be lenient, possibly because they think Japanese group tourists have good manners, so I think snacks like potato chips would be fine.

The thrilling rides and attractions that I’ve never seen in Japan were, of course, fun, but it was also great to ride with locals and get a tan while waiting. Everything felt so much more vibrant and happy on an international scale.

Thanks to this experience, I came back quite tanned! I would love to go again if I have the chance!

以前オーストラリアでこういう大型プールに行きものすごい楽しかったので、今回もハワイで絶対にいこうと決めていました。

入場料と送迎だけの一番安いツアーに申し込んだのですが、結果大大大正解でした♪
余計な時間(ごはんなど)に並んだり気をとられることなくめいっぱいアトラクションに集中して楽しめました！
水以外のもちこみは禁止ですが、入場セキュリティが甘いというか、日本人団体客はマナーがいいと思っているらしく見過ごしてくれるので、ポテトチップスなど余裕だと思います。

日本ではみたことない絶叫系の怖いすべりだいや乗り物などはもちろん楽しいのですが、そこで現地の人と乗り合わせたり、待っている間に日焼けできたり、すべてが海外規模でハッピーでした。
おかげで帰ってきた今では真っ黒です！

また機会があれば行きたいですー！

A bit overrated and touristy, im a vegetarian who does eat seafood but there were no vegetarian options so veggies beware as you;ll be stuck only eating salad, activities sound a lot more interesting on paper then in person, consists of a 2 second canoe ride in a circle near the shore, throwing a stick at a bale of hay, someone making you a flower bracelet, and throwing a wooden thing and a stone against a board, the actual luau dance was pretty good and the fire dance was amazing, dinner should be served sooner and the real entertainment should start earlier, the bus took forever to get there and your free mai tai just tastes like juice and no alcohol. drinks were way overpriced but is nice that your ticket includes 3 free drinks but our quite small and they loor people into buying bigger ones for 3 dollars each so they make the money back. all in all it was good to experience it for my first time but it was very unauthentic and cheesy to us.

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The facilities for children are well-equipped, and the kids had a great time. There are many types of slides, so even the smaller slides for young children have a reasonable wait time, even when crowded.

In addition to the slides, they also enjoyed water guns, mushrooms with flowing water, and shooting fountains.

Moreover, the waves in the wave pool were high, adding to the thrill.

However, since we visited on a Sunday, attractions meant for families had long lines, and we had to give up on some of them.

Also, since the pickup time was at 2:30 PM, I felt that a little more time would have been nice.

子供向けの施設が充実していて、子供たちは大いに楽しんでいました。
スライダーは種類も多いので小さな子供向けのスライダーも
混んでいてもそれ程長時間並ばなくても順番が回ってきます。

There is a place to buy food near the lockers, and most menu items were around $10 (like the fries set).

For women, there were simple spaces for toilets, showers, and changing clothes☆
(I heard that men didn't have showers.)

So, you can change!
The lockers are large and cost $18.
You get $5 back when you return.

We participated as a family.
There were many inflatable slide attractions, and even the adults had a lot of fun.
It’s a primitive system where you receive an inflatable ring from those who have finished and carry it back to the starting position yourself.
The BBQ chicken was delicious, but it felt like a waste of time to eat.
It was disappointing that the attractions were suddenly interrupted, possibly due to staff breaks or inspections.
The wave pool had waves that were almost painfully strong, which was entertaining.
The kids were thrilled and said they want to go again.

Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii Water Park Admission Tickets

Teenagers love it year after year

Reviewed by: SoCalMom

We have been to this water park for the last 5 years in a row. We have four teens and they want to go each year. There are more rides now and the kids are occupied the entire time. We don't pay extra for the buffet because it is not really that enjoyable for teenagers. They prefer the hamburgers and fries that they can get whenever they want. The buffet is more multicultural and more formal. They do not have enough poolside chairs and alot of parents sit on the grass by the lazy river. The parents would float longer in the lazy river but there are not enough inner tubes and you have to get out of the lazy river after one turn around and get back in line. For parents in there 40's or even 50's that becomes tiresome. There is a hot tub for adults over 21 but it is not open the entire time. As far as the kids are concerned this place gets 5 ***** stars! They have a really great time and love it! If they love it then I want to take them:)

I went to Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ行ってきました

Reviewed by: mischiba

During our honeymoon trip to Oahu, we definitely wanted to visit Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. To sum up my impressions, I highly recommend it! We participated in an optional tour, and since there weren't too many people, we enjoyed our favorite attractions multiple times. One attraction we particularly liked was a seemingly simple pool that generates artificial waves. The waves are quite high, making it feel like a mini attraction, and we had a lot of fun.

One thing to keep in mind is that for slide-type attractions, you need to secure your own floaties or boogie boards at the bottom of the slide before climbing to the top. In Japan, it seems like staff would hand them out at the top, but if you forget, you'll have to go back down to get them.

新婚旅行でオアフ島へ訪問したときに是非これは行ってみたいということでウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイに行ってきました。
感想からいうと是非おすすめですよー。オプショナルツアーで参加したのですが、人もそんなに多くないので気に入ったアトラクションを何回も行きました。私達が気に入ったのは、一見地味ですが人工波が出るプールです。結構な高さの波が出てくるのでちょっとしたアトラクション級で楽しめますよ。
注意しておいた方がいいのが、スライダーのような滑る系アトラクションに必要となる浮き輪やビート板みたいな器具は各自滑り台の下で確保して頂上に登る仕組みみたいです。日本だと頂上で係の人が渡してくれそうですが、間違えるとまた麓まで取りに行くことになりますよ。

It's close to the dolphins. イルカと近いです

Reviewed by: karibu

First of all, this tour has a high quality. Usually, expensive tours aimed at Japanese people always have a Japanese guide, but this tour does not. However, there is an excellent local guide who understands the Japanese spirit and provides detailed guidance, so it's perfectly fine even if you don't understand English at all. I felt that this tour was thoroughly researched for Japanese participants.

Of course, regarding the important rendezvous with the dolphins, this was the closest encounter I've had on any tour so far, and it really felt like we were swimming together. I highly recommend this tour for those looking to meet dolphins. I was also impressed by the service that sends a group photo if you register your email (of course, for free).

　まず、このツアーはクオリティーが高いです。
通常は、日本人向けの値段の高いツアーには必ず、日本人ガイドがいるのですが、このツアーにはいません。
しかし、日本人の心を理解した優秀な現地ガイドさんがいまして、きめこまやかなガイドをしてくれるので、英語がチンプンカンプンでも全然オーケーです。
かなり、日本人向けに研究されているツアーと感じました。
　もちろん、肝心のイルカとランデブーですが、今までのツアーの中で一番の最接近で、本当に一緒に泳いでいる感じがしました。
イルカと逢いたいツアーをお探しの方は、おすすめです。
Ｅメールを登録すると、集合写真を送ってくれる（もちろん、無料）サービスも、感心しました。

The large bus shuttle made it easy to travel comfortably. The good thing about taking the time to go there was that there are various types of pools and attractions that can only be found here, allowing for water play suitable for different ages.

On the day we visited, both the lazy river and wave pool were too crowded, making it dangerous for small children (no outside floaties allowed, rentals available). Although I thought we could play quite a bit from 10:30 to 14:40, it felt busier than expected. I think once is probably enough.

大型バスの送迎でゆったり行き来は出来ました。
わざわざ時間を掛けて行って良かった点は
色々な種類のプールやここにしかないアトラクションがあるので年齢に応じて水遊びできる事位。

It was fun as always. いつもどおり楽しかったです

Reviewed by: てるももぱぱ

I participated on July 29, 2010. This was my third time on the tour, but this time I joined by myself (with a rental car). It's always a lot of fun every year. The pool has many attractions, and there's hardly enough time to enjoy everything in the park. All the attractions are thrilling and enjoyable, but my kids seem to like the wave pool the most.

It's a bit far from downtown Honolulu, but it's about a 35-minute drive if you have a rental car.

Bringing food and drinks is prohibited (there's a bag check at the entrance), but you can bring bottled water. However, I noticed that the locals were secretly bringing in Spam musubi.

The rental lockers come in both large and small sizes, so it's best to minimize your belongings. Also, the number of floaties at each attraction was limited, so we ended up renting some for an additional fee.

There aren't any attractions that require a rash guard, so it's fine to wear just a swimsuit and beach sandals in the park. However, for sun protection, having a rash guard might be better later on.

You’ll be barefoot on the stairs and while waiting in line, so your feet might get hot or hurt.

There’s also a kids' pool area, so families can enjoy it together.

I haven't experienced the meal option, so I can't comment on the taste, but you can purchase meals separately for around $10 (there was a new fried rice option on the menu, but it wasn't very good).

I highly recommend this optional tour. Please give it a try!

２０１０年７月２９日参加しました
３回目のツアー参加ですが、今回は自力で（レンタカーで）の参加でした
毎年とても楽しいです
プールにはたくさんのアトラクションがあり園内の時間が足りないくらいです
どのアトラクションもスリルがあって楽しいですが、うちの子供たちは波の出るプールが一番好きなようです

ホノルル市街からは少し離れていますが、レンタカーであれば３５分程度です

飲食物の持ち込みは禁止（入口で荷物検査があります）ですが、ペットボトルの水のみ持込み可です
地元の人たちは内緒でスパムむすびを持ち込んでいましたけどね

レンタルロッカーは大でも小さいので、荷物は最小限にした方がいいです
また、各アトラクションでは浮き輪の数が減っていましたので、ウチでは別料金で借りちゃいました

ラッシュガードが必要なほどハードなアトラクションはありませんので、園内は水着とビーチサンダルで大丈夫です
ただ日焼けの点ではラッシュガードがあったほうがあとでよいかも

階段や順番待ちの際は裸足になるので足の裏が痛かったり暑かったりします

子供用のプールエリアもありますので、家族で楽しめます

食事付きは体験したことないので味はわかりませんが、別に１０ドル前後で食事は購入できます（メニューにチャーハンが新しく加わっていましたが味はいまいちでした）

It was better than I expected. 予想より良かったです

Reviewed by: ゆきさと

I thought my stay might be too short, but I was able to experience all the slides and bodyboarding. The meals are served buffet-style, and you can eat freely within the designated time. I think the items for sale are cheaper, but there were long lines, which made it take a while to purchase. (You show your wristband at the same store to get drinks, but it took so long that I ended up only getting them once during my stay.) If you're moving within a short time frame, I think a lunch-inclusive tour would be more efficient. The area is smaller than I expected, but considering the wait times for slides at a certain famous pool in Japan, the wait for the slides here is shorter. I was glad I participated, more than I had anticipated before going. Depending on the weather, the wait times for the slides can make the soles of your feet quite hot. If you have sandals or beach shoes that can be securely fastened around your ankles, you can ride the slides without taking them off, so I recommend this for those planning to go.

滞在時間が短いかな・・・と思いましたが、とりあえず全部のスライダーとボディーボード体験ができました。
食事はブッフェ形式で、決められた時間内に自由に食べられます。販売されているものの方が安いと思いますが、すごく並んでいて購入まで時間がかかりました。
（同じお店でリストバンドを見せてドリンクを貰うのですが、とにかく時間がかかるため、結局滞在中１回しか貰いませんでした。）
短い時間内で動くのであればランチつきツアーの方が効率的だとおもいました。
敷地は思っていたよりも狭いですが、日本の某有名プールのスライダーを待つ事を考えれば、スライダーの待ち時間も短いです。
行く前に予想していたより、参加してよかったと思いました。
天候にもよりますが、スライダーの待ち時間に足の裏がかなり暑くなります。足首にしっかり固定出来てはずれないサンダルやビーチシューズだと途中で脱がずにスライダーに乗れますので、これから出かける方にはお勧めします。

Reviewed by: kaji

? Shuttle Service
I stayed at the Ilikai Hotel, and the shuttle service was provided by the neighboring Prince. The pickup was scheduled for 8:50 AM for a 10:30 AM opening, which was a bit early. However, the shuttle only goes directly to the location from the Prince and Hilton. We arrived around 9:40 AM and waited at the gate until opening. For the return trip, since the Prince was the first hotel, we arrived in about 30 minutes. It was nice to return quickly. The guide spoke Japanese, which was reassuring.

? Attractions
Since it was Saturday, it was quite crowded. We lined up before opening and managed to get a shaded chair bed in front of the wave pool. The shaded spots disappeared in no time. The attractions were thrilling, with intense waves that almost made my small 8-year-old child drown. The popular multi-person slide gets crowded, so it might be best to go right after opening.

? Meals
Only water is allowed to be brought in. Everything else must be purchased on-site. However, by lunchtime, the shops were extremely crowded. We bought a plate from the less busy barbecue area for $10. It was enough to satisfy three family members, as the portion sizes are generous in Hawaii. The taste was good.

? Overall Impression
Overall, it was a fun experience with a level of excitement not found in Japan. I would like to go again if I have the opportunity.

？送迎について
イリカイホテルにとまり送迎はとなりのプリンスでした。
10時半オープンに対してホノルルの西側からピックアップするようで待ち合わせは8時50分。
ちょっと少し早いのが難点。
しかしながら送迎はプリンスとヒルトンのみでそのまま現地に直行。
到着は9時40分ごろ。そこからオープンまでゲートで待ちました。
帰りはプリンスが始めのホテルなので30分ほどで到着。
帰りは早くてよかったです。
ガイドさんは日本語も喋れる方でしたので安心です。

？アトラクションについて
土曜日だったので結構混んでいました。
オープン前から並んだので、波のプール前の屋根つきのチェアーベットをゲット。
あっというまに日陰席はなくなりました。
アトラクションは豪快。波は激しい波で、8歳児で小柄なわが子はおぼれる寸前。
人気の複数人が乗れるスライダーは混むので、まずオープン直後に行くのがいいかもしれません。

？食事
持ち込み可能なのは水のみ。
あとは現地で購入。
しかし昼になると売店は大混雑。われわれは空いていたバーベキューコーナーのプレート（$10）を購入。
ハワイ量なのでひとつで家族３人のおなかを満たしました。
味はおいしかったです。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Paradise Cove Luau - July 2010

Reviewed by: RC

As a first time visitor to Hawaii ,I was not sure what to expect from a Luau. The Luau actually begins on the bus ride to Paradise Cove. We were greeted, welcomed and entertained by our host, "Cousin Bronson." He told funny stories and jokes and explained what to expect before we arrived to our destination. This made everyone feel "connected" and a part of the "family."

Paradise Cove Luau was enjoyable and it was a great experience for all of us. The Paradise Cove entertainers were very well trained and showed a great deal of confidence and expertise in their skills and their dances. Afterwards, they were available for pictures and autographs. Paradise Cove is a wonderful setting for a luau. Very beautiful location for the setting sun pictures.

The trip back to our hotel was another entertaining ride with more stories and jokes from Bronson. I would recommend Paradise Cove Luau to anyone. Great job!

You can really swim with wild dolphins. 本当に野生のイルカと泳げます

Reviewed by: 雷太

I had signed up for a different tour last time, but we ended up chasing dolphins in the bay, with phrases like, "Hey, chase them! They're over there! Look, over there!" and ultimately, we couldn't see them underwater. I thought to myself, "It's wild after all," when I saw the photos of people swimming with dolphins, thinking this was a rare case. However, to my surprise, I was able to see a pod of dolphins swimming underwater from above and the side, just like in the photos. I believe this was largely thanks to the instructors. They carefully guided us by saying, "Come over here! Look ahead, look down!" to show us where the dolphins were.

On the boat, the captain, who somewhat resembled Gary Sinise (which reminded me of Forrest Gump), along with the staff, performed hula and played the ukulele! Even when they were distributing the hamburgers for lunch, they always created a cheerful atmosphere that made the guests feel a sense of unity. The staff, especially one who resembled the cheerful enka singer Jero, helped create a relaxed feeling.

The only downside was that there was a family with a child around three years old, and at first, the child was crying loudly, which scared the dolphins away. I hope participants consider the age of their children when joining.

前回別のツアーに申し込んだのですが、イルカがいる湾内で、”ほれ、追いかけろ！あそこにいるぞ！ほれ！あっちだ”みたいな感じで、ひたすらイルカを追いかけて、結局水中では見られませんでした。やはり野生だからね~~と、こちらの一緒にイルカと泳ぐ写真をみたときも、こういうのはまれなケースだよと思っていましたが、なんと、写真と同じ、群れをなして泳ぐイルカを水中で上から、横から見ることができました。それはインストラクターのスタッフのお陰によるところが大きいと思います。”こっちきて！前見て、下見て”とイルカがどこにいるか、丁寧に誘導してくれます。また、船上では、どことなくケーリー・シニーズに似た船長（なので、フォレストガンプを思い出しました）とスタッフによるフラや、ウクレレ演奏！そして昼食のハンバーガーを配るときもいつも陽気にお客さんに一体感を感じさせる演出をしてくれます。親切で陽気な演歌歌手ジェロ似のスタッフを始め、リラックスした気持ちにさせてくれます。
ただ残念だったのは、3歳くらいの子供を連れた親子がいたのですが、最初子供が泣き叫び、その声でイルカが逃げて行ってしまいました。参加する人も子供の年齢を考えてほしいものです。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

nice experience

Reviewed by: jeannette

Going to a luau is something everyone should do at least once. Paradise cove is beautiful and the staff very friendly. The "games" are not impressive, but give you something to do. The show is good. The food is good but not labeled, so try everything. Did not like most of the native dishes, but the pork and chicken were excellent. The drinks are poured in front of you, shots measured and often generous. Unless you are a drinker, I would not say they are watered down. You can purchase bigger, "better" drinks as well. (i didn't need to.) Had the standard package and would not bother with more expensive packages, seats are all good and buffet lines move quickly and plenty of food. Bring small bills for tips. I would recommend this activity to family and friends. Some small children there, ok for kids.

ウェット アンド ワイルド ハワイ　絶叫ウォータースライダーなど25種類以上のアトラクションが揃うウォーターパーク　ランチやドリンク付きパッケージプランあり

Wet n Wild ウェット・アンド・ワイルド

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated on June 21, 2010.
This is my second time joining the tour, following last year.
It's always a lot of fun!
The pool has many attractions, and there’s hardly enough time to enjoy everything in the park.
Every attraction is thrilling and enjoyable.

It's a bit far from downtown Honolulu, but it's convenient because they pick you up at the hotel.
Bringing food and drinks is prohibited (there's a bag check at the entrance), but you can bring bottled water.
While there are free drinks available, they only offer soda, so I think it's a good idea to bring your own water.
The rental lockers are small, so it's best to keep your belongings to a minimum.
There aren't any attractions that require a rash guard, so you can get by with just a swimsuit and beach sandals in the park, but you have to take off your sandals when riding the attractions.
You’ll be barefoot while going up stairs or waiting in line, which can be painful or hot on your feet.
Having marine boots is convenient because you can wear them on the attractions.
There’s a pool area for kids as well as an adult area (which has an additional fee, but you can drink alcohol), so families can enjoy it together.
The all-you-can-eat meal at Big Splash was tastier than last year.
I highly recommend this optional tour.
Please consider participating at least once!

２０１０年６月２１日参加です
去年に続いて2回目のツアー参加です
毎年とても楽しいです
プールにはたくさんのアトラクションがあり園内の時間が足りないくらいです
どのアトラクションもスリルがあって楽しいです

ホノルル市街からは少し離れていますが、ホテルでピックアップしてもらえるので便利です
飲食物の持ち込みは禁止（入口で荷物検査があります）ですが、ペットボトルの水のみ持込み可です
フリードリンクですが、ソーダー類しかないので水を持って行くと良いと思います
レンタルロッカーは小さいので、荷物は最小限にした方がいいです
ラッシュガードが必要なほどハードなアトラクションはありませんので、園内は水着とビーチサンダルで大丈夫ですが、
アトラクションに乗るときはビーチサンダルは脱がないといけません
階段や順番待ちの際は裸足になるので足の裏が痛かったり暑かったりします
マリンブーツがあると履いたままアトラクションに乗ることができるので便利です
子供用のプールエリアも大人用のエリア（別料金ですが、アルコールも飲めます）もありますので、家族で楽しめます
ビックスプラッシュについている食べ放題の食事は去年よりもおいしくなっていました。
とってもオススメのオプショナルツアーです
ぜひ一度参加してみてください
