This isn't normally the sort of thing my husband and I do, organised fun isn't really 'us'. However the Luau at Paradise Cove was absolutely brilliant. The food and entertainment were fantastic, even our hotel pickup was brilliant (Thank you Cousin Mo!)
I honestly can't recommend this experiment enough, a great night, we loved it!!!

The bus ride to the Polynesian Cultural Center was ok. The guide who spoke most of the way there was not very entertaining. He did pass on a few useful tidbits, but not many considering he spoke for almost an hour and a half. The guide we got at the PCC was difficult to understand and was apparently supposed to shepherd about 20 or 30 people around. Since you had to be very close to him to be able to hear and understand him, most of what he said was missed by most of his charges. He led us from presentation to presentation for 2.5 hours, then, as he sent us on our way to our dinners, he gave us maps of the place. It would have been nice to have a program or something to explain what it was we were seeing in these presentations. The Luau was just ok. Waiters were passing out drinks in pineapples to select people...I was unaware of any offer of those drinks. I assume there was a separate charge, but I have no idea. The food was mediocre and the show after dinner was not much better. Then we went to the main event...HA, breath of life. Once again, we were not given any explanation of what the performance was showing us. A brief one-page synopsis would have been extremely helpful. Overall, I was very disappointed with this tour!

After having dinner, we watched the show.
The dinner started off with a fun atmosphere, thanks to a kind woman dressed in Hawaiian attire who adorned our heads with flower decorations and took photos for us.
To be honest, I participated with the show as the main focus and didn't have high expectations for the food, but I was surprised by how delicious everything was in the buffet! By the fourth day of our trip, I was getting tired of the heavy Hawaiian meats, but I was able to eat heartily. There were various performances during the meal, which made it enjoyable.
After the meal, we had dessert and felt great and full before watching the show. Honestly, I wasn't very familiar with the original material, but there were so many engaging elements that kept it interesting! The cast members were also very enthusiastic, which added to the fun. The highlight was definitely the Michael Jackson performance; despite a slight height difference, he looked just like the real thing! His dancing was incredible, and it felt like I was watching the real Michael. At the end, we took a photo together, and even up close, he looked just like him. I think anyone who knows famous rockers will enjoy this!
ディナーを食べてからショーを見る流れでした。
ディナーはハワイアンな格好の優しい女性が、頭に花飾りをつけてくれたり写真を撮ってくれたり、楽しい雰囲気ので始まりました。
実はショーをメインに考えて特にご飯には期待せずに参加しましたが、バイキング形式でどれも美味しくてびっくりしました!
旅行の4日目に行ったため、ハワイのお肉てんこ盛り&味のこってりしたものに飽きて来ていた中、ぱくぱく食べることができました。
食事中もパフォーマンスが色々あって、楽しかったです。
食事の後はデザートを食べて、満腹でいい気分になってからショーを観ます。
正直私が元ネタになっている人をよく知らないということがありましたが、それでも飽きさせない演出が沢山盛り込まれていました!
そしてキャストの方々がサービス精神旺盛でそれもまた面白かったです。
やはり特によかったのはマイケルジャクソンで、少し身長は違えど本人としか見えないぐらいそっくり!
ダンスもバリバリで、本人を見ているような気分でした 笑
最後に一緒に写真を撮ってもらいましたが、近づいてもそっくりです。
有名どころのロッカーを知っていれば、誰でも楽しめると思います!

The bus guide was Japanese, and for about an hour on the way, she talked a lot about Hawaii. Thanks to her, I felt like I was sightseeing during the journey. I chose the cheaper buffet, but there was everything from salad to dessert, and even a space where they cut the meat for us, so we were very satisfied. I had heard that we would be seated in the back, but in reality, we were in the fourth row from the front, which allowed us to feel the excitement of the show, and I was really happy about that.
バスガイドさんが日本人の方で、行きの一時間ほど、たくさんのハワイのことを話してくれました。おかげで道中も観光した気分になりました。ビュッフェは安い方を選びましたが、サラダからデザートまでお肉を切り分けてくれるスペースまであり私たちは大満足でした。ショーは後方席と聞いていましたが、実際は前から四列目のショーの迫力が感じられる席で嬉しかったです。

I was a bit confused about the meeting place, but the Japanese guide found me.

The content of the show was excellent. Since it combines a Polynesian show with an impersonation show, it might be the perfect choice for those who want to experience a show that feels Hawaiian. In fact, I would overwhelmingly recommend this over a typical Polynesian show.
The premium cocktail show I attended had seats on the second floor, but it offered a good view of the entire stage. If you opt for a dinner package with front-row seats on the first floor, you'll have more opportunities to shake hands with the performers. However, there is a greeting time for all audience members after the show (including photo opportunities), so that's not an issue.
It was a show that made me want to see it again when I revisit Waikiki.
ショーの内容は申し分なし。
ポリネシアンショーとそっくりさんショーの融合なので、ハワイらしいショーも観たいという人にはこれ一つでいいかもしれない。
というか、一般的なポリネシアンショーよりも圧倒的にこちらをお薦めする。
今回利用したプレミアカクテルショーでは二階席となるが、ステージ全体が見渡せるので悪くない。一階前方席が利用出来るディナー付きだと、演者との握手の機会などが増えるが、ショー終了後に観客全員に対するグリーティング(写真撮影も)タイムがあるので問題ない。
ワイキキに再訪する際にはまた観たいと思えるショーだった。

I attended a show with family members who were at a wedding. We enjoyed it from the VIP dinner seats. While the first-floor seats allowed us to see the show up close, we had to look up from our seats, making it seem like the second-floor general seating would provide a better overall view of the stage. It was an American-style impersonation show, and not only was the quality impressive, but the structure of the show and the performers' likenesses were also quite moving. Many stars, from Elvis to Michael, made appearances. Additionally, the fire dance and hula dance were very captivating.
