All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

I went expecting a Japanese magician, but it was a different magician. Still, it was fun. However, I think you can't really enjoy it if you don't understand any English.

日本人のマジシャンを期待して行ったけど違うマジシャンでした。それでも楽しかったです。ただ全く英語が分からないと楽しめないなとは思います。

It starts with a buffet. You can enjoy hula shows, ukulele performances, and hula lessons while you eat. The food was very delicious. A Mai Tai is included as well. After that, we moved to the theater. Although the seats were ordinary, we were seated about three rows from the front, in the middle, so we had a great view. I wasn't expecting much, but we got to see a wonderful show. I thought the Michael Jackson and Elvis impersonators would just be look-alikes, but their singing and dancing were so amazing that I could mistake them for the real deal. I'm really glad I participated in this show. On the way back, I was able to take photos with the cast, and I was very satisfied.

最初にビュッフェから始まります。フラのショーやウクレレの弾き語り、フラレッスンなど、食べている間も楽しめます。お料理はとてもおいしかったです。マイタイ一杯もついています。その後シアターに移動します。普通の席でしたが、前から3番目の真ん中あたりに座れて、とてもよく見えました。そんなに期待していなかったのですが、素晴らしいショーが見られました。マイケルジャクソン、プレスリーは「そっくりさんでしょ」と始まる前は思っていましたが、歌やダンスも本物かと間違うほどに素晴らしく、本当にこちらのショーに参加して良かったです。帰りにはキャストの方々と写真も撮れて、大満足でした。

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Waimea Valley Luau!
The pre activities were so fun; my son (23 years old) participated in the coconut opening and the palm head cover. He totally embraced the moment.
The area was beautiful! We did the falls and the gardens first.
The drinks were quite festive, and the food was awesome.
The “show” was engaging; I loved the music and dance. And, the fire was very impressive!
I would highly recommend this experience!

It was the best luau show I've ever seen.

The regular luau show part was good, but the Elvis and Michael sections were truly moving.

今まで見たルアウショーの中で1番でした。

通常のルアウショー部分も良かったですが
エルビスとマイケル部分は感動モノでした。

I participated five years ago and had such a great time that this time I joined with my parents and my brother's family, a total of ten people. The view of the Waikiki hotel district from the ocean side was refreshing, and we could see Diamond Head up close. The sunset was incredibly beautiful. The kids and my father had so much fun and were very happy, saying they want to participate again.

This time the waves were high, and I got a little seasick, but that's also a good memory.

5年前に参加し、とても良かったので今回は親と弟家族総勢10名で参加しました。海側から見るワイキキのホテル街も新鮮だし、ダイヤモンドヘッドも近くで見られるし、夕日が沈むのがとても綺麗でした。子供達も父も凄く楽しかった・また参加したいと大喜びでした。
今回は波が高くてちょっと酔ってしまいましたが、それも良い思い出です。

I had a great time enjoying myself and my friend did too. The music was spot on. The candor of the crew was lovely. I highly recommend this cruise!! I would definitely do it again

As mentioned in the description, there was an exciting thrill like an attraction. It was very fun with splashes of water. The sunset was beautiful, and I was able to fully enjoy the Hawaiian sea. The explanations during the cruise were only in English, and Japanese was hardly understood. Since there were people from small children to the elderly, I think a wide range of people can enjoy it. Although it says unlimited alcohol, they only provide one type of cocktail, and it seemed difficult to get anything else. Since they serve while navigating, it might be understandable, but it’s quite strong, so be careful not to drink too much.

説明にもあったように、アトラクション的なワクワクドキドキがありました
水しぶきがかかったりして、とても楽しかったです
夕日も綺麗でハワイの海を満喫できました
乗船中の説明は英語のみで、日本語はほとんど通じません
小さい子から年配の方までいらしたので、幅広い方が楽しめると思います
アルコール飲み放題とありますが、提供するのは一種類のカクテルで、その他はなかなかもらえなそうな雰囲気でした
操縦しながらの提供なので仕方ないかもしれないけど、結構キツめなので飲み過ぎ注意です

While waiting at the meeting point, a black Benz arrived about 5 minutes late to pick me up. I was a bit anxious since there was no specific guidance from the driver, but when I showed the reservation screen, they instructed me to get in the car, and we safely arrived at the venue. (I wish the driver had been a bit friendlier… haha.)

Once we arrived at the venue, we had about 30 minutes to spare before it started, so we spent the time playing with tattoo stickers and Hawaiian games. The hula show and dinner began at 6 PM, and I enjoyed delicious food and drinks while watching the beautiful hula and fire shows. The venue was quiet with nothing around, giving it a private feel.

I felt it was a good decision to book this, as it had a more relaxed atmosphere compared to the hula shows at shopping centers or in the heart of Waikiki, allowing us to enjoy it at a leisurely pace.

集合場所で待っていると、5分遅れくらいで、黒のベンツで迎えに来てくれました。運転手から特に案内がなく、この車で合っているか不安でしたが、予約画面見せたら車乗るよう指示してくれて、無事会場に着きました。(もう少し愛想ある方だったらよかったなぁと…笑)
会場着いてからは、始まるまで30分くらい時間があり、タトゥーシールやハワイのゲームなどして過ごしました。18時からフラショーとディナーが始まり、素敵なフラやファイヤーショーを見ながら、美味しいご飯とお酒を楽しみました。会場は、周りに何もなく静かで、貸切感がありました。
ショッピングセンターやワイキキ中心部でやっているフラショーより、落ち着きがある雰囲気でゆっくり楽しめたので、こちらを予約してよかったと思いました。

Great experience overall, you will have to walk in ankle deep water so wear appropriate shoes. They offer free drinks and I’m not sure anyone was checking how many we had to I guess it’s unofficially unlimited. Wish it was a little longer of a ride the hour goes quickly

I had a wonderful dinner at Michel's before, so I tried to make a reservation again this time, but it was fully booked. While looking for options for our last dinner in Waikiki, I found this tour. I’m excited to hear that it’s a place used for wedding receptions. The meeting point was easy to find, so we didn’t have to go around to different hotels, making for a smooth transfer. Everyone was dressed up a bit in aloha shirts and dresses.

From the car window, we enjoyed views from the city to the highway and residential areas. While waiting for our meal to be served, which took about an hour, we strolled through the garden, made ti leaf bracelets, got traditional design tattoo stickers, and played some simple games... It was great to spend time leisurely. Since it was a private garden, we felt safe with no one else around except for the tour participants.

It was nice that we received two drink tickets. We could order drinks as soon as we arrived, and having a beer while looking at the garden and water in the evening was the best! There were several options for beer, wine, and other drinks. The meal prepared by the chef from Michel's was delicious, and I reminisced with my husband about our previous experience at Michel's, saying, "Yes, this Caesar salad! This steak sauce!" Both the shrimp and meat were satisfying, giving a more elevated impression compared to the typical barbecue or local cuisine often found on tours. As expected from Watabe Wedding.

Throughout the meal, there was live music, and we enjoyed watching various hula dances while taking in the scenery transitioning from evening to night. With only 14 participants, this hospitality felt luxurious. The show ended with an impressive fire dance and a short hula lesson, filling both our stomachs and hearts. I was a bit anxious because Japanese people don’t seem to know how to cheer during shows, and I thought it would be easier for the performers if there were more clapping and applause, but after all, there were only 14 of us (laughs).

The guide and the staff who served our meals spoke Japanese, which was great. The guide even took individual photos and explained the place, and I was happy they were able to assist despite being busy. I’m considering joining again next time with my elderly parents. Thank you very much!

以前ミッシェルズでの夕食がとても美味しかったので、今回も予約しようとしましたが満席。
ワイキキ最後の夕食をどうしようか探していた際にこちらのツアーを見つけました。
結婚式のレセプションでも使われる場所とのことで期待が膨らみます。
集合場所はわかりやすく一か所だったので、あちこちホテルを回らず、スムーズな移動。
皆さん、アロハシャツやドレスでちょっとおしゃれされてました。
車窓は街中からハイウェイ〜住宅地まで見られて楽しめました。
お食事が出てくるまで１時間ほど、お庭を散策したり、ティリーフで腕輪を作ったり、伝統的デザインのタトゥーシールを貼ってもらったり、簡単なゲームもありました。。。のんびり過ごせたのはとても良かった。
プライベートガーデンなので、ツアー参加者以外にいなくて安心。
ドリンクチケットが２枚付いているのも良心的。
現地に到着早々にドリンクが注文できて、夕方のお庭や水辺を見ながらのビールは最高！ビールやワイン、ドリンクは数種類ありました。
ミッシェルズにいたシェフが作るお食事は、とても美味しく、「そうそう、このシーザーサラダ！このステーキソース！」と以前のミッシェルズでの思い出を夫と話しながらいただきました。
エビもお肉も満足なもので、ツアーにありがちなバーベキューや現地料理的なものから一段上な印象です。
さすがワタベウェディング(^^)
お食事の間ずっと生演奏が流れていて、次々雰囲気の違うフラダンスを見せていただきながら、夕方から夜になっていく景色をゆったり楽しむ。参加者14人でこのおもてなし。。。贅沢だなー(^_^;)
ショーの最後は迫力のファイヤーダンスとフラのショートレッスンもついていて、お腹も心も満たされました。
日本人はショーの盛り上げ方が分からなくて、本当はもっと手拍子や拍手があったほうが演者さんが演りやすいんじゃないかなーとハラハラしたりしましたが、何しろ14人ですからね(笑)
案内の方始め、お食事のサーブをしてくれたスタッフさんは日本語が通じるので、その点も良かった。特に案内の方は個別に写真を取ってくれたり、場所の説明をしてくれたりとお忙しいのに対応してもらえて嬉しかったです。
次回は高齢の両親と参加してもいいかもと思っています
ありがとうございました(^^)

The drinks are all-you-can-drink, but there are no restrooms, so I couldn't drink much. After the fireworks at night, the night view of the sea is beautiful, but it got a bit chilly, so it's better to have a jacket. ^_^

飲み物は飲み放題ですが、トイレがないので、あまり飲めなかったです。
夜の花火の後は、夜の海で夜景は綺麗だけど、少し肌寒くなってきたので、上着があった方が良いです^_^

What a great experience! The crew were professional, fun and knowledgeable.

It was a good experience with my kids and families . We enjoy the performance and dances . The food is great we enjoy it too.

ALOHA!
It had been a while since I celebrated my 60th birthday in Hawaii, and I participated in a sunset sailing tour.
There were only my wife and me as the two Japanese participants, which made me a bit anxious, but despite getting soaked from the splashes, we were able to enjoy the sunset while drinking delicious beer and Mai Tais.
MAHALO!
I definitely want to participate again.

ALOHA!
還暦を迎えて久しぶりのハワイ、サンセットセーリングに参加しました。
日本人が私と妻の二人しかおらず若干不安でしたが、波しぶきでビシャビシャになりながらも、おいしいビール、マイタイを飲みながらサンセットを、見ることができました。
MAHALO！
また是非参加したいと思います。

It was my first time at Sea Life Park, and I enjoyed it more than I expected. The kids loved the area with all the birds.

The luau show was very impressive. The MC had great timing, and the handsome leader did a fantastic job.

I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

シーライフパーク自体が初めてでしたが予想以上に楽しめました。
こども達は鳥がたくさんいるエリアがお気に入り。

ルアウショーは迫力満点。
MCのテンポもいいし、イケメンリーダーの回しもよかった。

機会があればまた参加したいです。

The sunset, night view, and Friday fireworks were all very beautiful. The food was delicious, but I felt it was a bit lacking in quantity. The five-star seats were quite cold, so a jacket is a must. It was so cold that I often went outside to warm up. (laugh)

サンセット、夜景、金曜日の花火どれもとても綺麗でした。料理は美味しかったのですが少し量が足りなくて物足りない感じです。5スターの席はかなり寒いので上着は必須です。寒すぎて船外にちょくちょく暖をとりに行ってました。笑

This cruise was not very good. The food was cold and the meat was mostly fat and if I could guess, it was about a 2 ounce cut of fat. The show was 2 people, doing a song. Not what I would think a show of the culture would be.

During the time I stayed, the sunset was positioned more to the right, making it difficult to see from Waikiki due to buildings obstructing the view. However, on this cruise, I was able to see the sunset beautifully! It was a wonderful experience.

私が滞在した時期はサンセットが右寄りに見えるため、ワイキキからは建物などで遮られて見えづらい時期でした。でもこのクルーズだときれいにサンセットが見られました！とても良い経験でした。

We received amazing service my wife and I! We celebrated our 1 month anniversary being married and Armando took outstanding care of us and we had such an amazing time. At the very end of the night we were pleasantly surprised with the song we played for our first dance on our wedding day, we were invited to dance up front and the servers were so enthusiastic and fun the entire time. 11/10 would recommend to a friend and we will be returning next special occasion!!

The Star of Honolulu was awesome… what a great time me and my wife had… nice big ship lots of room… and what a show at the end… they do a great job getting us all in position out on the water for the sunset. I would highly recommend this option for a dinner sunset cruise… plenty of helpful staff and dinner service was superb…!!!!

The admission ticket for Sea Life Park was valid for three days, so I enjoyed the aquarium the day before the Luau show and took my time to watch the show on the day itself. Many people were wearing aloha shirts and dresses, and it felt like everyone was looking forward to the show. There were almost no Japanese tourists, so it was great to enjoy the show in an international atmosphere. And the food was very delicious! I participated in all the activities prepared before the show, so I never felt like I had too much free time. Above all, the performance at the end of the Luau show, where they spun the flaming blades at high speed, was breathtaking!

シーライフパークの入場券が3日間使えたので、ルナウショーの前日に水族館を楽しんで、当日はゆっくりショーを見に行きました。
アロハのシャツやドレスを着ている方も多く、みなさんショーを楽しみにして来た感じでした。
日本人の観光客はほぼいなかったので、海外の雰囲気のままショーを楽しめたのはよかったです。
そして料理もとてもおいしかった！
ショーの前に用意されているアクティビティも全て参加し、時間を持て余すことは一切なかったです。
何よりルナウショーの最後の、炎の刃を高速回転させるパフォーマンスは圧巻でした！

Great professional sailors and coast guard certified crew. Great “Holokai Hooch”, gotta be careful, that hooch will sneak up on you, especially if you mix it with champagne for that carbonated kick hehe!

Great romantic time with my husband, watched the sunset as sugar ray played lightly in the background. We are a young couple but we love 90s music!

The only drawback is that the trip was too short.

Would definitely do it again, maybe try to nudge them to stay sailing a little longer.

Was super fun for 7 year old and 2 adults. Would recommend. Have a great time.

I used the Rock-a-Flush Show Luau for the first time!

It was our honeymoon in Hawaii, filled with first-time experiences! I was a bit anxious about fully enjoying Hawaii, so I booked this show to feel that Hawaiian vibe. To sum it up, I truly believe it was a great decision to make the reservation.

First, we received a beautiful lei made of fresh flowers! It was a bit exciting to receive that coveted lei from a hula girl, just like I had seen on TV! After that, we were kindly shown to our seats, and while enjoying a Mai Tai welcome drink and welcome pineapple, we were entertained by live ukulele performances for each guest, creating a welcoming atmosphere during the wait!

Then the luau began! We enjoyed beautiful hula dances by the hula girls and took part in an authentic hula lesson, making my heart feel Hawaiian. After the hula dance show, we indulged in a delightful buffet. The local dishes, fresh fruits, and grilled foods were all amazing, and by this point, both my eyes and stomach were completely satisfied!

But this is just the beginning! We moved to the show venue, where the hula dance evolved with the times, and the dynamic dances and songs kept raising our excitement! The final fire show was mesmerizing, and I couldn't take my eyes off it for a second! I never expected to be so moved, and both my husband and I truly felt that making the reservation was the right choice.

ロック・ア・フラショー ルアウを初めて利用しました！

初めてのハワイで初めて尽くしのハネムーン！ハワイを満喫できるか不安もあり、ハワイっぽさを感じたくこのショーを予約！
結論から言って、予約して本当に良かったと心から思います。

先ずは生花で作られたレイのプレゼント！テレビで見てたあの憧れのレイをフラガールから貰えるなんて、ちょっと嬉しい！
その後丁寧に席に案内され、マイタイのウェルカムドリンクとウェルカムパイナップルを楽しみワクワクしながら待っていると、ウクレレ演奏をゲスト毎に生演奏で披露してくれ、待ち時間も楽しませてくれるウェルカム感！
そこからルアウのスタート！美しいフラガールによるフラダンスを楽しみ、本格的なフラレッスンを受けて、私の心もハワイアン。
フラダンスショーが終わってからはお楽しみのブュッフェ。地元料理や新鮮なフルーツ、グリル料理はどれも最高で、ここまでで既に目も胃袋も満足感間違いなし！

でもここからが本番です！ショーの会場へ移動し、時代と共に進化を遂げいくフラダンス、躍動感溢れるダンスに歌でどんどんテンションが上がっていきます！ラストのファイヤーショーは一瞬たりとも目が離せませんでした！こんなに感動するとは思っておらず、夫婦揃って本当に予約して良かったと心から思いました。

Really got to see the island like never before. Was really great.

I received a clear explanation of the history of the Kingdom of Hawaii in Japanese. It was a meet-up at the location, but it was close to the bus stop, and since the area is residential, it was fine. It was my first time doing hula dancing, but they taught it slowly, so I was able to keep up! Making leis was also fun. I highly recommend it!

ハワイ王国の歴史を日本語でわかりやすく説明していただきました。現地集合でしたが、バス停からも近く、周囲は住宅街なので大丈夫でした。フラダンスは初めてでしたが、ゆっくり教えてくださったので、ついていくことができました！レイ作りも楽しかったです。お勧めです！

Sweet short voyage to watch the fireworks. Captain and staff were lovely - very welcoming and happy to answer all your questions about beautiful Oahu wonderful singing and commentary

My family and I had such an amazing time at this Luau. Felt so welcomed, the staff was so friendly and organized. Really appreciated the digital photos included and the veggie dish I received was so yummy!

The day we visited, it was a private event. In a homely atmosphere, time passed without boredom as we enjoyed hula and fire dancing. I have experienced several dinner shows while watching hula, but this was the best, with delicious food and a luxurious time. The transportation to Kaneohe was also considerate, allowing us to relax without worry. The staff who spoke Japanese were kind and helped to uplift our spirits. Thank you very much. I highly recommend it.

私たちが、利用した日は、貸切状態でした。
アットホームな、雰囲気の中、フラや、ファイヤーダンスなど、飽きることなく時間がすぎました。
フラなどを見ながらのディナーショーは、いくつか体験させていただきましたが、1番、食事が美味しく、贅沢な時間でした。
カネオヘまでの、送迎も、色々気遣いしていただき、安心して過ごせました。日本語が、話せる方も、親切で、私たちを、盛り上げてくださいました。ありがとうございました。
是非、おすすめします。

We participated with our daughter and her husband, along with our one-year-old granddaughter. The buffet had a wide variety of delicious food! In a fun atmosphere, we headed to the show. I was worried about how our granddaughter would react since she is so small, but once the music started, she got into it and danced all the way to the end. She had the most fun of all! Thank you for the wonderful memories of Hawaii!

娘夫婦と1歳の孫娘と私達夫婦で、参加しました。ブッフェも、種類が多く美味しかったです！楽しい雰囲気のままショーへ　孫が小さいので、どうなるか心配でしたが、音楽がかかるとノリノリで踊りだして最後まで、孫が、一番楽しんでました。楽しいハワイの思い出をありがとうございました！
