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>

It became a great memory. いい思い出になりました。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

To my surprise, everyone on the bus was foreign! We were the only Japanese people. The guide was of Japanese descent and spoke Japanese, which was helpful. However, the conversation on the bus was in English, so I couldn't understand what they were talking about, but it was definitely lively. I was glad to have a little chat with the two beautiful women sitting in front of me! The show was great, and the various activities before the show were also enjoyable.

Thank you very much, guide. If there’s another opportunity, I would appreciate your assistance again.

驚いた事にバスの中はみんな外人の方ばかり!!
日本人は私達だけでした。ガイドの方が日系だったので
日本語が話せたので助かりました。ただ、車中は英語だった
ので何を話しているのかわかりませんでしたが、盛り上がっていたことは確かです。
前に座っていた綺麗な女性2人とも少しお話できてよかったです!!
ショーもよかったし、ショーの前のいろいろなアクティビティーもよかったです。

ガイドさん、本当にありがとうございました。
また機会がありましたら宜しくお願い致します。

The translation couldn't keep up.. but the guide was amazing! トランスレート追いつかず・・でもガイドが最高でした!

Reviewed by: なんきんまま

I participated with my daughter, who is in the second year of junior high school. I knew this tour would be quite an adventure for Japanese people, but it exceeded my expectations as a native tour. On the large bus, we were the only Japanese, and after the guide mentioned that they didn't understand Japanese, there was not a single word of Japanese for the entire 7 hours. I was quite confident in my English skills, but the rapid-fire talking on the bus, the American jokes, and the translations couldn't keep up. Moreover, the guide encouraged a sense of camaraderie by suggesting handshakes and shoulder rubs with our neighbors to liven up the party (luau)! This was also true at the venue, where we sat at tables by bus, making communication essential. It was challenging in many ways, but it was a fresh Hawaiian show even for me, who has been to Hawaii five times. As someone else wrote, the important thing is to remember your bus number and return time (around 9:30). Once you arrive, there are many free activities until meal time, so participate actively! There are shows like climbing palm trees and net fishing signaled by the conch shell, so be sure to check those out! It's important to participate actively. The Polynesian Cultural Center explains the history and differences of the islands clearly, but this tour was all about participation centered around dance, so they can't be compared. It was a tour that made me truly feel the American spirit of enjoying the moment. If you can think, "It's okay if I don't understand English," it becomes easier. It might be better to have a larger group to enjoy together!

中2の娘と二人で参加、かなり日本人には冒険のツアーということは知っていたが聞きしに勝るネイティブツアー。大型バスの中で日本人は私たち母娘のみ、ガイドに日本語わかりません、と一言前置きされてから7時間まったく一言も日本語なし。英語力にはかなり自信ありでしたが行き返りのバスでの弾丸のようなしゃべり、アメリカンジョーク、トランスレートは追い付きません、しかもお隣さんや後前さんで握手や肩もみなんていう仲間意識をあおってパーティー(ルアウ)を盛り上げよう!的なガイドからの要請もある!現地でも然り、バスごとにテーブルにつき盛り上がるのでコミュニケーション必須かも。色々大変だけどハワイ5回目の私にも新鮮なハワイアンショーでした。誰かが書いてくれたとおり大事なのは、自分のバスナンバーと帰り時間(9:30ごろでした)を忘れないこと。現地に着いたら食事までの時間はかずかずのアクチビティーがタダなのでどんどん参加すること、ホラ貝の合図でヤシの木のぼりや地引網漁などのショーがあるのでそちらに行ってみること!積極的に参加することが大切です。ポリネシアン文化センターは島々の歴史やその違いがわかりやすく説明される催しですがこちらは踊りを中心に全部が参加型、比較はできません。アメリカ人のその場を心から楽しむ精神を痛感するツアーでした。英語わからなくてもいーやーと思えればラク、できれば大人数のほうがうちわで盛り上がれるのでいいかも!

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

What we imagined a luau to be!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My husband and I were first time visitors to Hawaii and definitely wanted to attend a luau. After checking out all the reviews several times, we decided on this one. We opted for the deluxe dinner package w/ VIP seating and it was well worth it. The only downside to the whole trip was that the bus was late leaving the pickup point (seems to be a regular problem with them for some reason but you quickly learn the meaning of "Hawaii time") so we had less time to check out the grounds but a great time anyway. Cousin Kahale was quite entertaining on the bus and had explained everything to us by the time we got there. Once we arrived we received our leis and were whisked away to begin our VIP treatment. We had a personal escort take us inside, get our complimentary photos taken at the entrance and given a personal tour of the grounds and where to find everything. I would definitely recommend bringing several bucks extra in cash if you're like me and love getting the full experience,

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Great time!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My husband and were first time visitors to Hawaii and this seemed like a nice thing to do. We got the 3 star package with the celebration plan and definitely had a great time. This was our last planned event during our stay and it was a wonderful way to spend our last night in Hawaii. We were quickly shown to our table and the dinner service went smoothly from there. We went up to the deck above several times to check out the view of Waikiki Beach all the way down to Diamond Head. Dinner was wonderful (although a little messy since we had the lobster) and the entertainment (a jazz duo with a saxophonist for a couple numbers) during dinner was lovely. We came back to our table at one point to find the photo they took right after we boarded sitting in a very nice cover on our table, free with the package we ordered. The show after dinner was quite entertaining, especially when they got everyone in the room up on their feet and dancing in one big mass of people, it was so much fun!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We are two aunts who love Hawaii.
We participated in this tour where Japanese was not understood while we were learning English conversation.
We were the last to be picked up, and as soon as we got on the bus, the atmosphere was incredibly lively. Although we didn't understand the meaning, we had a great time.
We took photos with the dancers at the entrance, and those who wanted could buy them later, but since we didn't need the photos, I wish we could have skipped that part from the beginning. I felt a bit guilty for not buying them.
We participated in various performances, watched the show while having dinner, and the return bus was full of energy.
It was an experience unlike anything I had ever had before.
Thank you, our guide Poma'i.
I want to improve my English skills and participate again.

ハワイ大好きのおばさん二人です。
英会話学習中で日本語が通じないこのツアーに参加しました。
私たちが最後のピックアップで、バスに乗車したとたん中は凄い盛り上がりで、意味がわからなかったけれど楽しかったです。
入口でダンサーと写真を撮っり、ほしい人は後で買うのですが、私たちは写真はいらなかったので、はじめからスルーできたらよかったと思いました。買わないことにちょっと罪悪感が残りました。
いろいろなパホーマンスに参加したり、食事をしながらショーを見て、また帰りのバスも元気一杯。
今まで味わったことのない体験でした。
ガイドのポーマイさんありがとう。
もっと英語力を付けて、また参加したいです。

Memories of Hawaii ハワイの思い出

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I think this luau show is special. For those who want to spend a memorable Hawaiian night and enjoy the charm of the magnificent dances and spiritual Hawaiian hula, it will surely be a lifelong memory. The location is also fantastic; you can enjoy hula while being tickled by the pleasant sea breeze near the beach, listening to the sound of the waves, and watching the beautiful sunset glowing in vibrant orange.

What makes this show special is its location and atmosphere. You can't experience this in the middle of Waikiki. While being on Oahu, it has a neighborly vibe, and people from the mainland flock to participate in this show, which is said to be the most popular in Waikiki.

I really enjoyed conversing with a family from San Francisco that I met there. I will definitely participate again.

このルアウショーは特別だと思います。特別なハワイアンの夜の思い出を過ごしたい方、華麗な踊りとスピリチュアルなハワイアン・フラの魅力を堪能されたい方、一生の思い出に残すこと間違いなしです。ロケーションも、オーシャンフロント、鮮やかなオレンジ色に輝くきれいなサンセットを見ながら、波の音が聞こえるビーチのそばで、心地よい潮風にくすぐられ、フラを楽しむことができます。

 このショーのスペシャルなところは、そのロケーションと雰囲気です。ワイキキの街中では絶対に味わえません。オアフに居ながらネイバーの雰囲気があり、本土の人もこぞってこのショーへ参加し、ワイキキの中では一番人気だそうです。

 一緒になったサンフランシスコから来たという家族と会話も楽しむことが出来て本当に良かったです。また絶対参加します。

The kind of romance we were after..

This was a very nice dinner cruise. It wasn't too long and it delivered on a great sunset.

The food was delicious too. We did the 1 Star package which came with crab legs, steak and mashed potatoes. Everything was better than I had expected it to be. It came with a complimentary Mai Tai which was also very good.

The Hawaiian music was good and the dancers were a lot of fun. My hubby and I got a really nice photo from them too.

I would recommend this to any couple looking for a little romance on their trip to Hawaii.

I was travelling alone, but with all the cousins I met I had a blast. Even the bus ride to Paradise Cove was fun because cousin Trina was awesome! I enjoyed all of the activities and the show was great. The property is georgeous and beautiful sunset photos here. I payed for the Deluxe VIP package and was happy with it because as soon as I was at my table I didn't have to leave. I was brought my very tasty dinner to my table, as well as drinks whenever I needed. I would definately recommend this especially for groups or people celebrating something. I want to go to Paradise Cove again!

It started with a happening and was very fulfilling. ハプニングから始まり大変充実

Reviewed by: watanabe

This time, participating in the Luau & Hula Hawaiian Show was a truly memorable day. As mentioned in the title, there was a bit of a mishap. The bus was supposed to pick us up from the hotel for the tour, but we completely misunderstood the meeting point for tomorrow's tour and ended up at the gathering place for the Hyatt Regency at 4 PM instead of Ohana Waikiki West! Well, since the tour bus had arrived there before 4 PM, we were waiting in line without any worries, but the guide seemed to notice something was off. It was then that we realized we had made a mistake and hurried to Ohana! Half of us ran, while the other half lagged behind! It turned out that the bus was indeed for that tour… The latecomers managed to get on the bus, while half of us didn’t.

Somehow, we managed to get on the bus and became quite famous among the passengers. Most of the participants were foreigners, and since the guide didn't speak Japanese, that added to the confusion. However, since we were in a foreign country, we wanted to be as far away from Japanese people as possible. Everyone was friendly, and even with broken English, it was more than enough! The attractions before dinner and the show were also great. We got to ride in a canoe, make head leis, and play around with various activities. Before we knew it, it was time for the show!

The show was incredibly impressive. We are quite familiar with Hawaii (having been there 7 or 8 times), but this was a really good tour with rich content that allowed us to enjoy both the foreign atmosphere and Hawaii. I think it’s a fantastic tour. On the way back, they even took photos for us until the very end. That’s probably why so many foreigners gather for it. I would love to participate again.

今回、このルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショーに参加させて頂きとても思い出になる一日でした。タイトルにある様にハプニングというのは、ツアー参加のためにホテルまでバスで迎えに来て貰えるのですが、なんと私達は明日のツアーの集まる所と全く勘違いをしていて私達は4時にオハナワイイキキウエストなのにハイアットリージェンシーの集まり場に来てしまっていて!まぁそこに4時前にそのツアーのバスは来ていた為、何も気にせずに並んでたのですがガイドさんが何かおかしい様子。そこで私達も集まる所を間違ったと気づき急いでオハナへ!が我々の半分は走り、半分は少し出遅れ!所がそのバスはそのツアーのバスだった様で…。出遅れチームはバスに乗れ、半分は…。
とか何とかでなんだカンダでバスに乗れ一躍バスの中では有名人。そう、なんとこのツアーはほとんどが外人。ガイドも日本語通じないのでこんな事に。が、やはり海外に来たからには日本人とはなるべく離れたい。皆フレンドリーで片言英語でも十分!また内容も夕食&ショーの前のアトラクションがまたいい。カヌーに乗ったり頭のレイやプレス、色々遊んでくれました。あっという間に時間がたちショーの時間!
これまた迫力ありあり。私たちは結構ハワイのリピーターですが(7.8回)行ってますが。なかなか良いツアーで内容濃いし外国またハワイを堪能でき、すごく良いツアーだと思います。帰りも最後まで写真の対応をしてくれたり。だからこそ外国の方々も集まるのだろう。また参加したいです。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Great Cruise

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was our second time to Oahu and our second sunset cruise. The first time was with Navatek and that was a nice cruise but we felt that one was overcrowded (we upgraded our cruise on both trips). The cruise on the Star of Honolulu was much more expensive than our upgraded Navatek cruise so we were looking for a much improved experience.

The Star of Honolulu cruise was VERY personal as there were very few people who upgraded to the upper deck package. Matt and Captain Roy were extremely attentive and a pleasure to be around.

Unfortunately it was very overcast and the ocean choppy for our voyage but the dining experience was first class. The jazz show was phenomenal as well.

The coach ride felt like herding cattle, and at the price of our ticket I would expect a more personal form of transportation (I realize a personal car required an additional upgrade, but would have expected something more intimate than a full sized tour bus). There was little to no information given

Unique Experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was a unique experience for me because I have never been on any sort of cruise ship before. Although the waves were a little choppy, overall I had a great time. The food is great (one star), service is good, and the atmosphere is satisfying. Just a little advice for all the couples out there who want a special "one-on-one" type of evening, spend the extra money to get a table for two. If not, you may end up sharing a table with another couple. I lucked out and the couple that was supposed to show, didn't. This is also a type of outing that is geared more towards tourists. So this may not be so entertaining for many of the locals. It also does get a little chilly, so bring some sort of jacket (for the men), or a jacket/shawl (for women). Overall, I enjoyed the quality and experience this activity had to offer. I would definitely do it again sometime.
