「ロック・ア・フラ」ポリネシアンとロックを融合！有名キャストも楽しめるワイキキ最大のハワイアンショー＜ロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内＞

I was overjoyed to meet Elvis Presley. エルビスプレスリーに会えて大喜び

Reviewed by: フーミン

The granddaughters thoroughly enjoyed the shows featuring Hawaiian dance, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and more! The reason is that Elvis appears in the animated movie Lilo & Stitch, which is currently very popular among kids, and many of his songs are featured in the film. So, the 6-year-old and 3-year-old granddaughters were overjoyed to see an Elvis impersonator right in front of them. Of course, the hula dance was also wonderful! This event was great! Thank you very much.

ハワイアンダンス、プレスリー、マイケルジャクソン等々のショーを堪能して、孫娘2人は、大満足でした！
　その理由は、今、ちびっ子の間で、大人気のリロ&ステッチのアニメ映画の中に、プレスリーが出ているし、プレスリーの歌う曲が映画の中にいっぱいでているんです。だから、6才と3才の孫たちは、そのプレスリーのそっくりさんが目の前に出てきて、大喜びでした。
勿論、フラダンスも素晴らしかったですよ！本企画、良かったです！ありがとうございました。

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー　＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ＞

The guidance document is inappropriate. 案内文が不適切

Reviewed by: Makoto

The voucher issued states that the check-in location is "Hilton Hawaiian Village - Mid-Pacific Conference Center Rooftop." I heard that seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, so I planned to arrive early and wait on the rooftop for a good seat. However, even after the scheduled time, no reception staff or anyone else showed up, and the local contact number was unreachable as the business hours had ended. In the end, I just had to go down to the venue and check in directly after the scheduled time. Unfortunately, I ended up at the back of the line and couldn't get a good seat, which was very disappointing. The luau show itself was good.

発行されたバウチャーには、チェックイン場所が「ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ - ミッドパシフィック・コンファレンス・センター屋上」となっています。
席は先着順と聞いたため、良い席を取りたいと考え予定の時間より早く屋上に集合して待っていましたが、予定時間を過ぎても受付スタッフも誰も現れず、現地連絡先の電話番号も営業時間が終了しておりつながらず。結局時間を過ぎて会場まで下りて行って直接受付すればよいだけでした。おかげで列の最後の並んでよい席は取れず、大変残念でした。
ルアウショー自体はよかったです。

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 feel like I've stumbled into a village festival in Hawaii. ハワイの村祭りに迷い込んだ感が凄い

Reviewed by: からめた

It was an exotic experience centered around a luau show and Polynesian cultural experiences.

First, regarding the luau show, it is entirely in English, which is to be expected. I think other luau shows are not much different, so you should accept that.

The show features fire dancing and audience participation, making it enjoyable. The meal is a buffet and the taste is decent. I'm happy there are plenty of vegetables. Water and coffee are free, while alcoholic drinks are charged.

The audience consisted of only one family from Korea, not to mention Japanese or other Asian attendees, which added to the exotic atmosphere.

Depending on the plan, you can receive a $16 gift card, which you can use for drinks or souvenirs.

Before the show, you can enjoy activities like making flower crowns, experiencing body painting, and trying out Polynesian games. There was no aggressive tipping, and I had a great time.

ルアウショーとポリネシアン文化の体験やショーがメインの異国情緒漂う体験でした。
まず、ルアウショーですが、全編英語です。当たり前ですが。他のルアウショーも大差ないと思うのでそこは諦めてください。
ショーはファイアーダンスあり、観客参加ありと楽しいです。食事はビュッフェで味はまぁまぁ。野菜が多いのが嬉しいですよ。ドリンクは水とコーヒーは無料。アルコール類は有料です。
観客は日本人どころかアジア系も韓国の家族連れの方が一組のみ。とっても異国感です。
プランによっては１６ドル分のギフトカードが貰えます。お酒でもお土産でも好きなものをどうぞ。
ショーまでは花冠を作ったり、ペイントの入墨体験があったり、ポリネシアの遊び体験があったりで色々と楽しめます。チップにがっつく様子もなく、楽しく過ごせました。

Waikiki Luau with All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Dinner, Fire Dance & Rock-A-Hula Show

Michael Jackson at a Luau? We’re Still Confused.

Reviewed by: K Klouser

On July 19th, during our trip to Hawaii, my family and I (a party of 12) attended the Waikiki Luau with All-You-Can-Eat Buffet, Fire Dance & Rock-A-Hula. Unfortunately, it was one of the most disappointing experiences of our trip.

From the start, the event felt more like a tourist trap than a cultural celebration. The performers wore plastic grass skirts and danced on astroturf, which cheapened the experience and made it feel like a stylized imitation rather than a tribute to Hawaiian tradition.

The buffet was just as underwhelming. The meats were dry and chewy, and several of us left our meals half-eaten. We all ended up searching for food elsewhere after the show.

When purchasing tickets, we noted that they included premier seating for the show—something we specifically chose so the younger members of our group could engage and see the performance clearly. However, we were seated near the back with no explanation. The seating appeared entirely random, and there was no effort to honor the premier designation.

The show itself was bizarre. It was supposedly a journey through Hawaiian music and culture, but the execution was confusing. While we expected an Elvis tribute, it felt like a full concert with song after song. Then came a Michael Jackson impersonator performing Thriller and several other full-length songs. We learned during the show that he once performed at Aloha Stadium, but the connection felt forced and irrelevant. A few of us dozed off, while others sat in disbelief trying to make sense of it.

The performance dragged on far too long. With a tighter runtime and focus on authentic Hawaiian culture, it could have been enjoyable. The fire dancer was the highlight, but came too late to redeem the evening.

Overall, this luau was inauthentic, overpriced, and not worth it. We wouldn’t recommend it.

It was a wonderful show! 素晴らしいショーでした！

Reviewed by: こち

The various workshops and experience events, such as lei making, really captured the Polynesian atmosphere and were enjoyable. My child was delighted to take pictures with a parrot.

The show was very authentic, featuring not only female dancers but also male hula dancers, and we enjoyed both traditional dances from various countries (hula kahiko and Tahitian 'ote'a) and contemporary dances (hula 'auana and Tahitian aparima). The dancers were very skilled, and it was not just a show dance but truly impressive. The hosts, singers, and backing musicians were also wonderful, and the food was delicious, making it a very memorable luau experience.

Although the entire presentation was in English and there was no Japanese support, I felt that using a translation app would solve any issues.

レイメイキングなどの各種ワークショップや体験イベントはポリネシアンの雰囲気がとても出ていて楽しめました。
こどもはオウムと写真を撮れて喜んでいました。
　
ショーはとても本格的で、女性ダンサーだけでなく男性のカネダンサーもおり、各国の伝統的なダンス(フラカヒコやタヒチアンオテア)と現代風ダンス(フラアウアナやタチヒアンアパリマ)どれもとても楽しめました。
ダンサーの皆さんがとても上手で、ショーダンスではなく、本格派で素晴らしかったです。
司会、歌手、バックミュージシャンの皆様も素晴らしく、お料理も美味しく、とても思い出に残るルアウ体験となりました。
　
オールイングリッシュで日本語対応はありませんが、翻訳アプリなどを使えば問題ないと感じました。

You can enjoy an American-style show casually in Waikiki. ワイキキで気軽にアメリカンスタイルのショーを楽しめます

Reviewed by: 水戸黄門

You can enjoy songs and dances based on the historical concerts held in Hawaii, starting from the music and dance of the 1920s, through Elvis in the 1950s and 60s, to Michael Jackson in the 1980s and 90s. After the show, you can interact with the performers and take commemorative photos. The two lead roles may be played by different artists than those shown in the promotional photos, as they might be double or triple cast. I believe even those who are not familiar with that era will find it enjoyable.

1920年代のハワイ音楽とダンスから始まり、1950〜60年代のプレスリー、1980〜1990年代のマイケルジャクソンと、ハワイで歴史的なコンサートを行なった事実をベースに歌とダンスで楽しめます。ショー終了後は出演者たちとの触れ合いや記念写真が撮れます。主演の2人はダブルキャストかトリプルキャストだと思うので宣伝の写真とは違うArtistが出演する場合があります。当時を知らない世代の方でも楽しめると思います。

Not suitable for families with children. 子連れには向かないかな

Reviewed by: Minao

Not suitable for families with children, hence the ⭐️3 rating. It might be good for those who like Elvis and Michael Jackson. I think the show wouldn't fit well for young people who are not familiar with the two mentioned. During the performance, the kids were sound asleep the whole time. The live music and singing were very nice.

子連れには向かない。という事での⭐️3です。
エルビス、マイケルジャクソンがお好きな方には良いかも。子連れや上記の2人をあまり知らない若い方にはあまりフィットしないと思われるショーでした。時間帯的にも子供は終始爆睡でした。生音と生歌なのはとても良かったです。

We were staying at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki. I would look down from our room and see the small area the luau was being performed in. I was skeptical because any luaus we had previously been to were done in large areas. We were all pleasantly surprised at how welcoming the staff were! The show itself was very well done and the acts were both beautiful and memorable. The setting was small and intimate. There were 9 of us total and we were all very pleased!

Immersive Luau Experience with Dinner, Fireknife & Hands-On Cultural Activities

Simply the Best

Reviewed by: Parks Family

Tonight we went to an immersive and interactive luau -it was simply the best and I would highly recommend!

We all had such a great time - we were welcomed like family! We loved learning to drum, spin fire “knives”, wrap fish for cooking, bury the fish to cook on the hot rocks, have a traditional kava ceremony, and weave tea leaves to make bracelets, leis, etc. We then had a catered kalua pork dinner and got to eat the fish we wrapped and cooked. This was so much better than the commercialized luaus we have attended before! If you want a true family experience this is for you. If you want the commercialized cocktail filled experience this isn’t it!
