Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Wonderful !!

Reviewed by: Lilly

This is a MUST do for EVERYONE. We did the VIP box at the back and had the best seats in the place. The stage is still pretty close from the box and it is raised up at the same level as the VIP box so you see over top of everyone else who is in the general seating area. The VIP treatment really makes the whole experience so much better you get 2 pictures taken and don't have to wait in line ups. I couldn't imagine waiting in the long line that formed for the buffet!! There were lots of booths and activities before the dinner and show started we wandered around and watched some of the acts and tried the games they had set up, We walked out to the beach and the rocks which had an amazing view. It was just such a good time, perfect for the first night or two in Hawaii to get you in the "Hawaiian" mood!!! If you are going to do this activity do the VIP, you'll be happy you did :) The show was really good. Kids will love this but if you are a couple it is quite romantic!!

Had a lot of fun. Becca was a blast! She entertained us all the way there and back. I was expecting the food to taste better. The only food I truely enjoyed was the pig, which is surprising because I don't eat pork. I decided that I was not going to pass up the opportunity to taste this as it was prepared under ground. The show was great! I enjoyed all the dancers and different ceremonies throughout the evening.

Reviewed by: アルセウス

I had to wait in line for what felt like forever to enter the venue. It seemed that taking photos for each group at the entrance was the cause of the congestion, but couldn't they find a better way to manage that? The food was also hotel cuisine, and it could have been improved. It wasn't good. As for the show, the one at Sheraton Kauai was more interesting as it traced the history of Hawaii. Overall, it was quite disappointing.

会場に入るのにこれでもかというくらいならんで待たされた。はいるところで1グループごとに写真をとっていたのでそれが混雑の原因と思われますがもうちょっとなんとかならないものでしょうか？食事もホテルで出す料理なのでもうちょっとなんとかならないのでしょうか？まずかったです。ショーの内容もシェラトンカイウラニのショーの方がハワイの歴史をたどっていて面白かったです。全体的にいまいちでした。

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＞

Enjoy the traditional luau! 伝統ルアウを堪能！

Reviewed by: Lei

On September 1st, I participated in the Standard plan.

As others have shared in their experiences, stepping onto the large welcoming bus felt like entering another world! We were the only Japanese people, with most of the group coming from the mainland United States, along with some guests from Australia and Russia. The guide understood a bit of Japanese, but since all the talks during the ride, including tour notes, were in English, it might not be suitable for those who don't understand English at all.

Paradise Cove is located to the west of Waikiki, beyond the airport and Pearl Harbor, and since the bus ride is long, I recommend bringing a light jacket if you're sensitive to the air conditioning.

Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a welcome drink (ID is required for alcohol) and received shell leis for a commemorative photo. If you like the photo, you can purchase it on the way back. I think it was around $15.

We were guided to our dining seats, and after writing our names on the sticker on the table to secure our spots, we had free time. The park offered various activities and crafts, so we spent our time freely playing a game similar to javelin called Ooihe and getting Polynesian art tattoos (which wash off) until it was time for dinner.

The meal was a Hawaiian luau buffet, and the lomi lomi salmon and kalua pig were especially delicious. The plan included two drink tickets, which allowed us to exchange them for cocktails from a designated menu.

A point to note is to confirm your bus number and return time carefully, and as mentioned in the notes, a separate tip payment is required. This is a custom that may not be familiar in Japan, so it's easy to forget, but even though the tour fee has been paid, a small tip is appreciated when receiving crafts or drinks.

The show performed on the outdoor stage was spectacular! Along with hula and live music, the fire performance after a 15-minute break was definitely worth seeing. The beautiful sunset we unexpectedly witnessed added to the experience, making it a wonderful memory.

9月1日、スタンダードのプランに参加してきました。

他の方の体験談通り、お迎えの大型バスに乗り込むとそこは別世界！日本人は私達のみでアメリカ本土からが大半、他にオーストラリアやロシアからいらした方もいました。ガイドさんは日本語も少しわかる方でしたが、ツアーの注意点も含め車中でのトークは全て英語のため、英語が全くわからないという人には不向きかもしれません。

パラダイス・コーブはワイキキからハイウェイをひたすら西へ、空港を越えパール・ハーバーも越えた所にあり、バスの乗車時間が長いのでエアコンの効きすぎが気になる方は上着が1枚あるといいと思います。

到着するとウェルカム・ドリンク（アルコールはIDの提示が必要です）で歓迎され、貝殻のレイを首にかけてもらって記念撮影。この写真は、気に入れば帰りに購入することができました。15ドル位だったかな？？

お食事の席まで案内され、席を確保するためテーブルに貼られたシールに名前を書いたらそこからはフリータイム。パーク内は様々なアクティビティやクラフトなどが体験できるようになっていたので、私達はオオイヘというヤリ投げのようなゲームや、ポリネシアン・アートのタトゥー（洗えば落ちるもの）をしてもらったりしてお食事までの時間を自由に過ごしました。

お食事はハワイアン・ルアウ・ビュッフェで、特にロミロミ・サーモンとカルア・ピッグが美味しかったです。今回のプランにはドリンクチケットが2枚含まれていたので、決められたメニューの中からカクテルと交換することができました。

注意点としては、自分のバス番号と帰りの時間をしっかり確認しておくことと、備考欄にもある通り別途チップの支払いが必要ということです。クラフトやドリンクをサーブしてもらった時など、日本には馴染みのない習慣なので忘れがちですが、ツアー代金は支払済みといえども気持ち程度のチップは必要です。

野外ステージで行われるショーは圧巻！です。フラや生演奏はもちろん、15分程の休憩後の炎を使ったパフォーマンスは一見の価値ありだと思います。思いがけず見ることができた綺麗なサンセットもプラスとなり、いい思い出になりました。

Everything was GREAT except for the location.. I was disappointed cuz I booked this with a beach location in mind.. or at least, close proximity or along the beach; which I heard was the case for some time. Instead it was on the rooftop of the parking structure! Anyway, you probably would get more outstanding reviews if you only put the luau back on the beach or the grass area between the Lagoon Tower & Rainbow Tower! That would've made it PERFECT!

Discover ways to enjoy Hawaii beyond the ocean! 海以外のハワイの楽しみ方を発見！

Reviewed by: ミッキー

We participated in a program called "Luau" with a Japanese guide as a family (three members: a couple and their 10-year-old daughter). Since we experienced activities like making flower leis, hula dancing, and ukulele lessons, I think it was great for the child to have a program that was more than just observation. The dinner included with the tour was a buffet, allowing us to eat as much as we liked, and the seasoning was also fine. During the meal, we enjoyed a show, and after eating, we moved to a different location for an approximately 1 hour and 30-minute Polynesian show (with a 10-minute break), which was a wonderful story-driven performance that made the time fly. Overall, I believe the cost performance was good, and I am satisfied. I think I will go again next time I visit Hawaii.

「ルアウ」というプログラムで日本語のガイドが付いたプログラムにファミリー（夫婦と10才女児の３名）で参加しました。アクティビティー（生花のレイ・フラダンス・ウクレレレッスなど）を体験したので、子供にとっては見学や鑑賞だけのプログラム充実して良かったと思います。ツアーについている夕食もバイキングで好きなものを好きなだけ食べられ、味付けなども問題ありませんでした。食事の際にもショーを鑑賞しながらでしたが、食事後は場所を移動して、約1時間30分（途中10分位の休憩有り）は時間を感じさせないポリネシアンショー（ストーリー仕立て）は素晴らしい内容でした。トータルとしてコストパフォーマンスも良かったと思い、満足をしております。次回、ハワイに行ったらまた行くと思います。

The show exceeded my expectations! ショーは　予想以上でした！

Reviewed by: PAT

The evening show was wonderful and powerful, to the point where I thought it could rival "Shiki Theatre Company"! Since it was a student show, I didn't have high expectations and thought it would just be women dancing hula. I thought about how around ¥15,000 for an adult ticket seemed expensive, but the show alone is worth that much.

A male student served as our guide for about ten of us. I was truly impressed by his sincerity and enthusiasm. He translated everything into Japanese. I thought it was amazing that he had only studied for two years. However, since he translated everything, I felt that the Polynesian atmosphere was somewhat diminished. I can speak English well enough for everyday conversations, so I found this a bit disappointing. It would have been better if the experience had been conducted in English only.

I wish there had been a bit more time for dinner before the show and shopping after the show.

夜のショーは　"劇団四季"も顔負けかなと思う位の素晴らしい、迫力あふれるショーでした！
学生のショーという事で、あまり期待せず、女性がフラを踊るぐらいかなと思っていました。
大人一人約￥１５,０００は　高いなあと思っていましたが、ショーだけでもその位の価値があります。

男子学生が　私たち１０人ぐらいの　ガイドになってくれました。彼の誠実さ、熱心さには　頭が下がるほどでした。全てを日本語に訳してくれました。２年間勉強しただけなのにすごいと思いました。
ただあまりにも全てを訳すので、ポリネシアの雰囲気が逆に消されているような気がしました。
私は　英語は日常会話に困らない程度に話せますので、これが却って残念でした。体験の時には　英語だけの方が良かったです。

The event will be held as usual despite the typhoon. 台風の中＝通常とおり開催ですよ＝

Reviewed by: ＪＵＮＪＩ

Due to the impact of the typhoon from the previous day, I thought, "Will it be canceled?" as I headed to the venue, which was supposed to take place as scheduled. The event was held not outdoors, but in a hotel convention hall. However, they smoothly guided the approximately 500 attendees, and the show started on time. The singing and speaking of the male vocalist, whose voice resonated well, along with the powerful dance performances, were no different from what you would experience outdoors. The food was delicious (I was particularly impressed by the tenderness of the roast beef and went back for seconds!) and you could enjoy two drinks (beer or soft drinks). After the show, I took photos with the dancers and felt great as I stepped outside, only to be met with a downpour that made me wonder if it had been canceled. Of course, it must be amazing outdoors as well, but I had a valuable experience. The reservation process was easy, the food was tasty, and it was fun to be surrounded by lively groups of foreigners.

P.S. There was no fire dance since it was indoors.

前日からの台風の影響で、時折スコールや風があったため「中止かな」と思って会場に行きました。
ところが、予定通り開催するとのこと。
会場は屋外でなく、ホテルのコンベンションホールを使っての実施でした。
　しかし、５００名はいたであろう観客をスムーズに案内し、ショーは定刻にスタート。
　声のよく透る男性歌手の歌と話。そしてダンスパフォーマンスの迫力は、屋外と何ら変わりませんでした。
食事もおいしいし（特にローストビーフの柔らかさに感動！おかわりしちゃいました♪）ドリンク（ビールorソフトドリンク）も２杯飲めるし。
　ショーが終わってダンサーたちと写真をとって気持ちよく外にでたら、途中で中止だったかなと思わせるほどの土砂降りでした。
　もちろん、屋外でもサイコーなんでしょうけど、貴重な経験をさせてもらえました。
　予約も簡単だし、食事もおいしいし、ノリノリの外人グループたちに囲まれて過ごすのも楽しいですよ。
　追記：室内だからファイヤーダンスはありませんでした。

Our driver/guide was awesome. I won't forget him! I can't recall his name because it was extremely long, but he did an EXCELLENT job guiding us through the island during our drive to PCC. This is our first time to Oahu and he did such a great job in getting us familiar with the area. He was extremely friendly and made us feel very welcome, like we were his own Ohana.

The Polynesian Cultural Center is an AMAZING place! Theres a 15 minute boat ride that takes u around the center to visit the different villages.

I was also very pleased with the ice cream service during the show. This time I chose the twilight course, but next time I plan to take my time and spend the whole day.

This is the real luau! これぞ本物のルアウ！

Reviewed by: soro

The luau at Paradise Cove is amazing, which is surprising considering how little it is advertised in tourist information in Japan! It's a fantastic tour that can't be summed up in just one word. An American from the mainland boasted, "You have to see this when you come to Hawaii. It's absolutely unmissable!" It seems to be quite famous in the U.S., and there were people who took vacations just to experience it.

Once you get on the bus, the guide is full of energy, and the tour begins in an exciting atmosphere.

First of all, the location is fundamentally different from the mock luaus held around hotels. The venue is set in a resort area, making it feel like a genuine festival (luau). Participating in various events while watching the sunset over the ocean is a delightful part of the luau experience.

However, if I had to point out one downside from a Japanese perspective, it might be the question of whether the food is suitable for a dinner show. Well, the buffet-style Hawaiian cuisine... might be a bit too bland. Aside from top-tier hotel buffets, this is probably the norm.

But once the lights go down and darkness falls, it becomes truly spectacular! As the spotlight shines and the intense flames dance, the show begins with a mix of enchanting hula performances that drive toward the climax. The excitement and emotion are so overwhelming that the taste of the food fades away.

I was impressed by the service, such as when a shy girl got the chance to go on stage... Truly, this is Hawaii's No. 1 luau! What I think about now that I'm in Hawaii is, "This is something you absolutely can't miss!"

どういう訳か…日本で目にする観光案内にはあまり宣伝されていないのが不思議なくらい、パラダイス・コーブのルアウは最高です！
一言では言い表せないファンタスティックなツアーです。
「ハワイに来たら必ず観るのさ。絶対に外せないネ！」とメインランドからきたアメリカ人が豪語してましたが、米国では相当に有名らしく、これが楽しみで休暇をとって来たという方もいらっしゃいました。
バスに乗り込めば、もうガイドはノリノリ。エキサイティングな雰囲気に包まれてツアーが始まります。

先ず、ホテル周辺で開催される模擬的なルアウとは根本的なロケーションが違い過ぎます。リゾート地に会場を設け、地に着いたお祭り（ルアウ）そのものからして本物だと実感させられます。
海に沈み行く夕日を眺めながら、会場内にある数々のイベントに参加するのもルアウの楽しいひと時です。
ただ一つ、日本人からの難点を挙げるとすれば、ディナーショーにふさわしい料理か？という不満はあるかも知れません。
まあ、ハワイ料理のビッフェスタイル…大味のオンパレードは仕方ないかも。一流ホテルのビッフェを除けば大抵はこんなモノでしょうかね。
しかし、一旦照明が落ちて漆黒を迎えてからが圧巻です！
スポットライトが射し込み、強烈な炎の舞で一気に幕が開くと、妖艶優美なフラとが入り乱れてクライマックスへ向けて延々とドライブが続きます。
もう料理の味など吹っ飛ぶほどの興奮と感動を堪能するのです。
シャイな娘が舞台に上がる機会をいただけたり…客へのサービスも演出された、さすがハワイNo.1のルアウだな！と感銘した次第。
ハワイに来て今想う事は、「これだけは外せない」です！

I booked a deluxe package because I wanted to see the night show from a good seat. The show was very impressive and absolutely fantastic. I was happy to have a seat in the fifth row from the front, close to the center. It felt just like the final scene of the movie "Hula Girls" (of course, it was much more authentic).

I also participated in a daytime tour around the park, where I could watch a small instrument show and had a brief experience with hula and ukulele. However, I wished there were more flexible options for how to spend the daytime. In my case, I wanted to see the night show from a good seat but also had a strong desire to take a hula workshop during the day. I consulted with the guide, but it wasn't possible. I had heard from a friend who works at a travel agency that such changes could be accommodated, so I was hoping to ask the guide on the day of the event. However, the guide who assisted us had only been in the role for three months, so they might not have been accustomed to handling irregular requests.

I was very moved by their efforts to preserve and pass on Polynesian culture. I highly recommend visiting!

夜のショーをいい席で観たかったためデラックスで申し込みました。ショーはとても見ごたえがあって最高でした。席は真ん中に近いブロックの前から５列目を押さえてもらってたので嬉しかったです。まるで映画フラガールの最後のショーの場面のようでした。（もちろんもっと本格的です）
昼間に園内をめぐるツアーに参加しましたがそこでも小さな楽器のショーが観れたりほんの数分ですがフラ体験やウクレレ体験ができたりしました。
ただ、昼間の過ごし方の選択肢にもっと柔軟性があればいいなと思いました。
私の場合夜のショーをいい席で見たいけど昼間はフラのワークショップをがっつり受けてみたい・・・という願望があったのでガイドさんに相談してみましたが無理でした。そういう変更も聞いてもらえるそうなので当日ガイドさんに聞いてみてください・・・と旅行会社に勤める友人から聞いてたのですが(-_-)当日担当してくれたガイドさんが始めてまだ３か月の方だったのでイレギュラーな対応に慣れてなかったのかもしれません。

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！

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

had fun

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My family and I absolutely loved visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center while in Oahu. I highly recommend spending the extra money and getting the Ambassador All day package. You will get a very personal tour guide of all the Polynesian villages. You are kept well entertained and learn a lot about the Polynesian cultures. The luau and the food was great, and the Night Show was beautiful and entertaining. I wished i had know the we were able to return on the ticket purchased to go back and go through it slower and get to do some of the events. please check out how to return

ポリネシア カルチャー センター　ハワイ最大の伝統ルアウショー！ショーのみまたはビュッフェ・ディナー付きから選べるプラン＜送迎付きプランあり＞

It might be better to join in the afternoon. 昼から参加がいいかも

Reviewed by: HIRO

I participated in the Twilight Deluxe on June 9. The ride to the destination was enjoyable, thanks to the interesting stories from our student guide, and we arrived in no time. The meal was a buffet, so it's best to go with an empty stomach. The show was impressive as we were seated in the third row from the front in the center. There was someone on the same bus who was attending for the second time, and they mentioned, "It's better to join in the afternoon." That made sense to me.

6/9トワイライトデラックスで参加しました。
行きの車中は、学生ガイドさんの話がおもしろくあっという間に目的地に着きました。食事はバイキングでした。お腹はすかして行った方がよいですよ。ショーは真ん中の前から３列目でしたので迫力ありました。同じバスの方で２回目の方がいらっしゃいましてその方曰く「昼から参加した方がいいよ」ということでした。なるほどと思いました。
