All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

It was a very enjoyable and fulfilling time for all generations. The food was delicious. We had fun during the meal with experiences like hula dancing and listening to Japanese songs played on the ukulele. The main performance was thrilling and exciting, making for a very satisfying experience.

どの世代であっても、とても楽しく充実した時間となりました。
お食事も美味しかったです。
フラ体験をさせてもらったり、ウクレレで日本の歌を聞かせてくれたりと食事中も楽しく、本公演はドキドキ、ワクワクした演出で大満足の時間となりました。

I had a great time. It was nice to receive energy from the young people. I hope to come again. I'll do my best.

楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。若い人から元気をもらってよかったです。また来ますように。がんばります。

The food and drinks were below average, but the show was truly amazing!! The proximity made it so powerful, with expressions, voices, and sounds all being very impactful.

食事やドリンクは普通以下でしたが、ショーが本当に最高でした！！距離が近くて、表情も声も音も、とても迫力がありました。

Beautiful gardens, well laid out trails
The luau and show was outstanding. So fun and informative too. 5 star + show and staff.
A great meal too. Thank you

Well worth the money the food is amazing the entertainment is fantastic before you even get to the theater you won't be disappointed I have nothing but great things to say about this event

I participated in activities like ziplining and buggy rides at Kualoa Ranch, flying a Cessna, jet skiing, and a tour of the waterfalls in Maui, but the best experience was this Mai Tai catamaran cruise.

On my last day in Hawaii, I enjoyed a drink while feeling the Hawaiian breeze with Western music playing in the background. Watching the sunset and reflecting on my trip to Hawaii, I realized that despite all the tours I took, the most luxurious and happiest moments were simply spending time like this, enjoying the pleasant wind of Hawaii.

ダイアモンドヘッド、クアロアランチのジップラインとバギー、セスナ操縦、ジェットスキー、パラセーリング、マウイの滝のツアーにも参加したが、1番よかったのがこのマイタイカタマランクルーズ。
ハワイ最後の日暮れ。洋楽が流れる中、ハワイの風を感じながらお酒を飲む。夕陽が落ちるのも見届けながら、ハワイ旅行の振り返りをする。いろんなツアーに参加したけど、結局ハワイは風が気持ちいいのだから、こーやってぼーっと時間を過ごすのが1番贅沢だなと幸せだなと感じました。

We enjoyed our visit ti the Polynesian Cultural Center. The entire experience wad seamless from start to finish.
Wr so appreciated your attention to detail.
Our tour guide driver, Shaft, wad excellent!
Mahalo!

Andrew is the best. He lets us see turtle head! I love it a lot.

We had a special night on the ke Kai watching the Friday night fireworks.

Staff were all lovely was a great vibe on the catamaran.

So nice seeing Waikīkī at night like that, the fireworks themselves don’t go for too long but still was magic.

We went with our kids and they loved it.

Great crew made this a fun evening on the water with beautiful views. If you are looking to get out on the water, this is an awesome way to see the coast and amazing sunset. Crew are pro’s with people to make sure all are safe and having a great time.

Sweetest and most talented cast. Loved the performance

I didn't have high expectations, but it was easy to get to near the hotel, and I had a great time. This time I only participated in the show, but joining with dinner also seemed nice. On the way back, Michael and Presley will see you off and take photos with you.

あまり期待をしていなかったが、ホテルの近くで行きやすく、楽しかった。今回はショーのみの参加でしたが、ディナー付きの参加も良さそうでした。帰りにマイケルやプレスリーがお見送りをして一緒に写真を撮ってくれます。

Had an absolute great time. It was a nice day outside, the water was calm. The staff was very nice, greeting, helpful with questions. The food was good, the buffet I couldn't complain. The chicken and roast beef were top notch as well as the salads and desserts. The entertainment was fun, learned out to do some Polynesian dancing on board and the dancers were really good and crowd uplifting. I would do it again. Cruise was about 2-3 hours on the water. Definitely good views of the sunset for photo taking.

The pickup on the way there was a bit scary due to the high speed. This was my third time, and I was satisfied with both the dinner and the show. As for the return bus, where would they drop us off? It was quite disappointing for the price, especially with no explanation provided.

行きの送迎は、猛スピードで少し怖かった。
今回3回目でしたが、ディナーもショーも満足でした。
帰りのバスは、何処で降ろしてくれるのか？
何の説明も無く金額の割にはお粗末でした。

I wanted to see a hula dance and fire show in Hawaii, so I searched for various options and decided to participate in this one. Unlike others, it was a cozy, intimate dinner show with a very special atmosphere! You can see the performance up close, and since it's not a buffet, you can enjoy your meal at a leisurely pace. I recommend this for those who want to enjoy a Hawaiian show and meal slowly. If I could make one request, since the dishes are quite substantial, I think it would be nice to have lighter desserts like sorbet or fruit!

ハワイでフラダンス・ファイヤーショーが観たくて色々探し、こちらに参加させていただきました。
他の物とは違い、こじんまりとはしていますが少人数でのディナーショーですごく特別感のあるものでした！
近くで見ることもでき、ビュッフェではないので食事をゆっくりと楽しみながら楽しめます。
ハワイアンショーと食事をゆっくりと楽しみたい方におすすめです
ひとつリクエストするなら、お料理がしっかりと出るのでデザートはシャーベットやフルーツなどサッパリするものが嬉しいと思いました！

For those of us in our 60s, it was a nostalgic favorite song. The dancing was also great. The fire dance was the best. The food had improved compared to before.

我々６０代にとっては懐かしい好みの曲でした。ダンスも上手かった。ファイヤーダンスは最高でした。料理も以前より良くなっていた。

Our group really enjoyed the sunset cruise. Great service, fun environment and the drinks were a bonus treat. LOVE this trip we plan on doing it again in 2024!

The crew was cheerful and kind, and the sunset over the Waikiki night view along with the free drinks on board was fantastic🥂 I will definitely ride again next time!

クルーの方も陽気で親切で、ワイキキの夜景にサンセット、船上でのフリードリンクは最高でした🥂
次回も絶対また乗ります！

Honestly, before I signed up, I thought $208 was a bit high... but since I was in Hawaii, I wanted to see the luau show, so I went ahead and signed up.

In the end, I’m glad I did! There were so many hula dances, fire dances, and shows to see, it was very impressive!!

When we arrived, we were welcomed with leis. After being shown to our seats, we had a little time before the buffet opened, so there was a space to enjoy making leis and headbands, which was fun. I thought I might not participate when I signed up, but it turned out to be a unique Hawaiian experience, and I loved it!!

We took a commemorative photo with the sunset in the background, and since we had tickets for two drinks, we ordered the first one and toasted together.

When the buffet line opened, everyone lined up and went to get their food in a serving style. The taste was good, but there weren't many options.

After the sun set, the show continued. The various regional dances and performances were really wonderful!!

It rained a little on the day I attended, but I think it would have been even better if it had been sunny! I highly recommend it.

正直、申し込む前は$208は少し高いな…と思っていたのですが、
せっかくのハワイなので、ルアウショーを見たいと思い申込ました。

結果は、申し込んでよかったです！
何といってもたくさんのフラダンスやファイヤーダンスやショーが見れて、
見応えがありました！！

到着するとレイでお出迎えしてくれました。
席に案内されると、ビュッフェのオープンまで少し時間があるということで、
リストレイつくりや、ヘッドバンドつくりの体験を楽しめるスペースがあり楽しかったです。
申し込んだときはやらないかな・・・と思っていたのですが、
ハワイならではの体験で、良かったです！！

夕日をバックに皆で記念撮影をし、
ドリンクも2杯分のチケットがついていたので、1つめを注文し、皆で乾杯。

ビュッフェラインがオープンすると皆ぞろぞろと列になり、配膳のような形で取りに行きます。
味は美味しかったですが、種類は多くありませんでした・

夕日が沈んでからは、ショーが続きます。
色々な地方のダンスや、ショーはとても素敵でした！！

私が参加した日は少し雨だったのですが、晴れていたらもっと良かったと思います！
おすすめです。

The show was really great!! There were hula lessons and interactive elements, and the various areas of hula, dance, and luau were all very impressive.

However, I think it's best not to have high expectations for the buffet. The show was very splendid, but the variety of the buffet was limited, and the staff put the food in boxes without allowing you to choose your preferred amount. (They might do it if you ask, but with such a long line, it didn't feel like the right atmosphere to ask...) The way they served the food was also quite careless, which was really disappointing.

Additionally, unfortunately, the weather was rainy... It wasn't raining the entire time, but when it rains outdoors, it really dampens the mood.

The show itself was very good, so I would be happy if they could improve the buffet format a bit!

ショーはとても良かったです！！
フラのレッスンや参加型のものもあり、
色々なエリアのフラやダンス、ルアウも迫力満点でした。

ただ、ビュッフェは期待しない方がいいかなと思います。
ショーはとても立派なのに、
ビュッフェの種類も少なく、また、スタッフさんが勝手にボックスに入れるので、
好きな量を好きな分だけ選べるわけではありません。
（言えばやってくれるのかもしれませんが、長蛇の列でそんなことを言える雰囲気でもなく・・・）
入れ方も雑で、そこだけすごく残念でした。

また、生憎の天候が雨で・・・全部雨だったわけでないですが、
やはり野外で雨が降るとなかなかテンションがあがりませんでした。

ショー自体はとっても良かったので・・・ビュッフェの形式を少し改善してもらえると嬉しいです！

After the reception, we were welcomed with a lei made of real flowers. I was able to take photos with the performers. Before the show started, there were photo spots and experiences like making crowns from leaves and flower bracelets, which made the waiting time enjoyable for children as well. I participated in the buffet course, but I felt there were fewer types of dishes, and since the staff served the food, it gave the impression of a bento-style meal. The food was delicious.

I was a bit dissatisfied with the variety of the menu and the way it was served. We received two drink tickets, allowing us to choose our favorite drinks from the counter, including alcohol and soft drinks!

Unfortunately, it rained on the day of the event, and I had to participate wearing a raincoat, so I couldn't see the sunset, which brought my mood down a bit, but that's just the weather... The show itself was authentic, and I thoroughly enjoyed traditional dances like hula and fire dancing. Some parts of the show involved audience participation, which was fun. However, since the show was primarily conducted in English, it might be a bit difficult to understand if you don't know any English.

I got the impression that there were more Western participants than Japanese ones. Overall, I enjoyed it, but considering the content of the food and the overall cost performance of the experience, it felt a bit overpriced.

受付が終わったら本物のお花でできたレイでお出迎え。パフォーマーの方々と一緒に写真を撮ることが出来ました。
ショーが始まる前には、写真撮影スポットや葉っぱで作る冠やお花のブレスレット作りの体験が用意されていて、待ち時間はお子様にも楽しめる工夫がされていました。私はバイキングコースに参加しましたが、お料理の種類は少なめで、係の方が取り分けてくれるスタイルのため、お弁当形式に近い印象を受けました。料理の味は美味しかったです。
メニューの種類と提供の仕方には少し不満かな。
ドリンクチケットが２枚ついていてドリンクカウンターでアルコールやソフトドリンクから自分が好きなものを選ぶことが出来ました！

当日は残念ながら雨が降り、レインコートを着ての参加になり、夕日も見られず少しテンションが下がってしまいましたが、これは天候なので仕方ないですね。。。ショー自体は本格的で、フラダンス、ファイヤーダンスなど伝統的なダンスをたっぷり堪能しました。
ショーの一部観客も参加型になっていて楽しむことが出来ました。
ただ、基本的に英語での進行なので、英語が全くわからないと少し理解しにくい部分もあるかもしれません。

参加者は日本人より、欧米系の方が多かった印象です。
全体として楽しめましたが、料理の内容や体験全体のコストパフォーマンスを考えると、若干割高に感じました＞＜

I boarded three times before the COVID-19 pandemic. The atmosphere was nice, and there were staff members who could speak Japanese. I was really looking forward to this trip to Hawaii after a long time, but the staff prioritized foreign guests and were not friendly towards Japanese guests. The drinks I ordered took over 30 minutes to arrive, and they didn't even ask if I wanted a refill on the bread. The only saving grace was the beautiful fireworks from Hilton. Overall, I'm just disappointed.

コロナ禍前に3回乗船しました。
雰囲気も良く、日本語も出来るスタッフもいました。今回久しぶりのハワイでとっても楽しみにしてましたが、スタッフは外人のゲストファーストで、日本人には愛想無し。頼んだドリンクは30分以上来ない。パンのおかわりさえ聞かない。唯一ヒルトンの花火が綺麗だった事が救い。
とにかく残念の一言

From beginning to end this was a wonderful experience! The entertainment and the food were exceptional, as was the hospitality. I highly recommend this event.

I highly recommend this luau recommendation at the Royal Hawaiian. I had excellent service by Veltra.
Thank you, Connie

A shuttle bus came to the hotel and it took about 30 minutes to the venue. There were no Japanese people on board, which made me quite anxious. However, the driver said "Japanese!" and encouraged travelers from different countries.

At the venue, I could only confirm one other group of Japanese participants besides us, but I felt that it actually enhanced the atmosphere. The shuttle service and the local staff were attentive, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any major issues. There was a dedicated staff member who spoke Japanese for the Japanese guests. The staff's words, "Please feel free to reach out if you need anything," provided a great sense of reassurance.

Drinks were exchanged for tickets, and while some drinks required an additional fee, most could be enjoyed with the tickets. The food mainly featured Hawaiian dishes, which were decent, and I thought it wasn't bad at all. The show combined traditional elements with entertainment, and I enjoyed it throughout.

Since everything was primarily in English, I couldn't fully understand the details of the conversations, but I was able to catch bits and pieces. It started with a Hawaiian sunset, and I received a lei, allowing me to feel the weight and beauty of an authentic lei. Overall, I thought it was a very good experience.

ホテル前に送迎バスが来てくれて会場まで30分ほど。車内には日本人はいなくてとても不安でした。ただ、運転手さんが「Japanese！」と言ってそれぞれの国の旅行者を盛り上げてくれました。
会場でも日本人の参加は私たちの他に一組しか確認できなかったですが、それがかえって雰囲気が出たように感じました。送迎、現地スタッフの方が気を配って下さり特に問題なく楽しめました。日本人の為に日本語が話せるスタッフが専属で対応してくれました。「何かあったらいつでも声掛けてください」というスタッフの言葉にとても安心感がありました。
飲み物はもらったチケットで好きなドリンクと交換する形でした。ドリンクによってはプラスアルファで料金を払いますが基本的に大体のドリンクはチケットで飲めました。食事は、ハワイのものがメインでまずまずでしたが、悪くはなかったと思います。またショーは伝統的なものとエンター的なものがうまく合わり、終始楽しめました。
基本的に英語だけなので話している内容は詳しく理解できませんでしたが、所々聞き取れ
ました。ハワイのサンセットから始まり、レイをもらい本場のレイの重みや綺麗さも感じることができました。全体的にとても良かったと思います。

The show was fun, and time flew by; I had a fulfilling time. I have fallen in love with Hawaii again. I will be a repeat visitor.

ショーは楽しく、時間が経つのが早く充実した時が過ごせました。
ハワイがまた好きになりました。
リピーターになります。

Eine sehr beeindruckendes Erlebnis!
Kann ich allen empfehlen.

I participated with just a show ticket. Although I was in the public relations section, it wasn't too far away, so it was fine. After the show, you can take photos with the cast. I wanted to take a picture with the backup dancers, but it was only with the main cast, which was disappointing.

ショーチケットのみで参加しました。
広報の席はでしたがそこまで距離があるわけでもないので大丈夫でした。
ショーの後にはキャストと写真を撮れます。バックダンサーの方と撮りたかったがメインキャストのみだったのが残念です。

Loved the food and the show was great. I will come back and recommend everything

It was an exhilarating show that was completely different from what I had imagined a Polynesian show would be! First of all, the power of the Polynesian show was incredibly moving. And the rock show was the best. Michael's singing and dancing were a sight to behold! After the show, there was a greeting and photo opportunity. I took a picture with Michael and shook his hand, but I was shaking all over, and I could tell he was performing despite being exhausted, which brought me to tears. It's a soulful show that I highly recommend everyone to see!

自分が想像していたポリネシアンショーとは一線を画す大興奮ショーでしたよ！
まず、ポリネシアンショーの迫力は凄く感動しました。
そして、ロックショー、最高でした。マイケルの歌、ダンス、一見あり！
ショーの後、グリーティング、写真撮影出来ました。
マイケルと写真撮影して握手してもらいましたが、全身震えていて、満身創痍でパフォーマンスしているのが分かり、涙が出ました。
そんな魂のショー、是非皆さん観てください！
