All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

Over 100 performers showcase songs and dances in a storytelling format. I've seen various luau shows, but this one is completely theatrical. Fortunately, I was seated in the front row, and I could feel the heat from the fire show, which was incredibly powerful.

Before the show starts, a Japanese guide takes you around the vast Polynesian Center, which was truly appreciated. For first-time visitors, it's easy to get lost and confused about where everything is.

100人以上の演者が物語形式で歌や踊りを披露します。ルアウショーは色々と見ましたが、こちらは完全に演劇です。幸運にも一番前の席に座れて、ファイアーショーの火の熱まで伝わって来てすごい迫力でした。

ショーが始まる前に広大なポリネシアセンターを日本人のガイドさんが回ってくれるのですが、これが本当にありがたかったです。初めて訪れる人はどこに何があるか掴めずグダグダになること間違いないです。

I only attended the show, but it was more wonderful than I imagined. I'm very satisfied! Elvis, Michael, and the hula girls were all amazing!

ショーだけ参加でしたが想像より素敵なショーでした。
大満足❗️
エルビスもマイケルも、フラガールも
最高でしたよ♪

I was looking for a place I had never been to and a tour I had never experienced before, and I found this tour. I have been to the Dole Plantation many times, but this was the first time I learned that you can take a factory tour right across the street.

On the day of the tour, it had rained the night before, so the ground was nicely damp, which was great. Our guide, Nori, took photos at various locations and also took us to sightseeing spots other than Haleiwa Town. I think it was because there were only a few participants that he was able to accommodate our requests.

今までに行ったことのない場所、経験したことの無いツアーを探していて、本ツアーを見つけました。ドールプランテーションには何度も行っていますが、向かい側で工場見学ができることを今回初めて知りました。
ツアー当日は、前夜に雨が降ってことで地面の土がほどよく湿っていて良かったです。
ガイドのノリさんは、場所場所で写真を撮ってくださり、ハレイワタウン以外にも観光名所に連れて行ってくれました。参加者が少人数だったのでリクエストに応えてくれたのだと思います。

We used the facility with 11 people from four families, ranging from 2 years old to their 60s. It was great to have a sense of openness and be able to relax. I think it would be even better if we could choose from the same menu as the regular restaurant.

2歳から60代まで4家族11人で利用しました。解放感があってゆっくりできて良かったです。
メニューが普段のお店と同じメニューから選べればなおいいと思いました。

From the moment we arrived, the festive atmosphere was inviting, the evening gave all guests a great mix of culture, cuisine, and excitement!!

A fun Hawaiian evening! The shell lei and included drink made for a festive welcome, and the luau dinner offered tasty traditional dishes!

The atmosphere was festive and authentic, making it a truly memorable evening.

The Friday add on of the fireworks at the end made the night extra special. Service was friendly and attentive, and the sunset views over Waikiki were stunning.

Even from the rear seating, the views were good, and the transportation made it easy to get there. A lively and memorable evening.

The Polynesian show was very entertaining, with skilled dancers. The boat service team was attentive, and the atmosphere was festive without feeling crowded. A fun and memorable way to enjoy a Hawaiian evening.

The sunset views from the deck were stunning, and the buffet offered a wide variety of tasty dishes.

The Polynesian show was top-notch, the dancers were expressive with the highlight, of the fire knife performance. It was beautifully choreographed!

After getting off the bus, I wasn't sure what to do, but when I showed the voucher on my smartphone at the ticket center, they issued me a paper ticket✋. This took away half of my anxiety, and the other half was about finding the Japanese guide. I managed to find where the guide was, and I met a wonderful volunteer guide (NENE), and it was amazing!!

Her service and hospitality were top-notch (laughs)👍. I want to come back and see her again!

Thank you, Nene-chan. See you again soon! 🤗👍

バスを降りてからとりあえずどうすれば良いか分からず、スマホのバウチャーをチケットセンターに見せると、紙のチケットを発行してくれました✋
これで不安は半分無くなりまして、あと半分は日本語ガイドさんを探すこと。何とかガイドさんが居る場所を見つけて、素晴らしボランティアガイドさん(NENEさん)に巡りあって、最高でしたー！！
気付いも、接客も営業も(笑)最高👍
また会いに着たくなりました！

ありがとう、ねねちゃん。またねー🤗👍

We used this for our honeymoon trip as a couple. We opted for a plan that included round-trip transportation to the hotel for an additional fee. While it was a bit pricey, the service and experience exceeded our expectations.

The server assigned to us was cheerful and very attentive. We also purchased additional photos, which became great memories.

If you're looking to enjoy the lively atmosphere of Hawaii, this might not be the right fit for you. However, I think watching the sunset while listening to jazz in a calm setting is a unique experience that’s hard to come by.

There were about 10% Japanese guests, and while the menu had some items in Japanese, all orders and communication were in English. The introductions of the musicians and the engaging talks were also all in English, so having some understanding of the language would make it more enjoyable.

夫婦の新婚旅行で利用させていただきました。
追加料金でホテルまで往復送迎していただくプランに。
やはり金額的にはいいお値段でしたが、期待以上の対応と内容でした。

担当のサーバーの方は陽気ですごく気が利く方でした。
写真も追加購入し、いい思い出となりました。

ハワイの陽気な雰囲気を楽しみたい方は合わないと思いますが、落ち着いた雰囲気でジャズを聞きながらサンセットを見るのはなかなか出来ない経験だと思います。

日本人は約1割いるかどうか、メニューは日本語も記載ありましたが注文やコミュニケーションは全て英語。
ミュージシャンの紹介や、盛り上げるトークも全て英語なので多少理解出来ると面白いと思います。

I went on the day I arrived in Hawaii, looking forward to the performance. I was moved and thrilled by the overwhelming performance from start to finish, and it was worth the trip.

ハワイ公演を楽しみに、ハワイ到着日に行きました。最初から最後まで圧倒したパフォーマンスに感動、感激で来た甲斐がありました。

"It truly felt like the real Hawaii!" It was the best night ever. The transportation from Waikiki was easy and convenient. Upon arriving at the Hawaii Country Club, we were welcomed by relaxing Hawaiian music, which instantly lifted our spirits. The food was full of local flavors, and everything was delicious, leaving us very satisfied. The hula dance show was incredibly graceful, and I couldn't help but be captivated by it.

「これぞ本場ハワイ！」と思える、最高の夜でした。
ワイキキから送迎付きで移動もラクラク。会場のハワイ・カントリークラブに到着すると、まずはゆったりしたハワイアンミュージックに迎えられ、気分が一気に高まりました。料理はローカル感たっぷりで、どれも美味しくて大満足。フラダンスのショーはとても優雅で、思わず見入ってしまいました。

You can experience a wonderful sunset.
All-you-can-drink is the best!
It's reassuring that there are restrooms available.
Since the sea breeze is strong, it's recommended to bring a jacket.

素晴らしいサンセットの時間を体験できます。
飲み放題で最高！
トイレ付きなのも安心です。
海風が強いので上着持参をお勧めします。

I was busy filming a video, so I couldn't take pictures of the fireworks, but watching the fireworks while drinking beer on a dark boat was the best!

ビデオ撮るの忙しくて、花火の写真は撮れてませんが暗い船の上からビールを飲みながら花火鑑賞は最高でした

I think it can be enjoyed by everyone from small children to adults. The fusion of a show and circus makes it even more enjoyable if you understand English.

小さい子供から大人まで楽しめると思います。
ショーとサーカスの融合で英語がわかればさらに楽しめると思います。

I have seen both "O" and "K" before, and the content of this performance is on par with "O." The 90 minutes flew by in no time. Since it was a weekday in November, the venue was about 70% full. There were empty seats on the sides, making it relatively easy to find seats. I watched from the front row, and it was very impressive, but my neck got tired. I recommend sitting in the 4th or 5th row from the front.

今までに「オー」と「カー」を観てきましたが、公演の内容は「オー」に匹敵するほどのレベル。あっという間に90分の時間が過ぎていきました。
11月の平日ということで会場は7割程度の入り。脇の席が空いていて、比較的に席は取りやすいようでした。最前列の席で観覧し迫力満点でしたが、首が疲れます。前から4〜5列目がお薦めです。

I was really impressed! The stage was smaller than I expected, and the proximity to the audience made it feel very intimate. The performers moved through the aisles, so even from the back seats, you could enjoy the show fully! I sat in the front row, and it was amazing to have a performer sit next to me and feel the stage fabric brush against my legs. It felt like a musical that requires incredible physical ability, almost like a circus. The acting, direction, singing, music, and physical beauty were all abundant! I highly recommend it! I'm really glad I went!

とにかく感激しました！舞台は思っていたより小さくて観客との距離が近いのと席の間を演者の人たちがすごい通るので後の席でも十分楽しめる感じです！私は一番前の席にしましたが隣の席に演者の人が座ったり舞台の布が足に触れたりと臨場感がすごかったです！サーカスというか身体能力がすごくないと出来ないミュージカルという感じでしょうか。演技演出歌音楽肉体美…盛りだくさん！かなりお勧めです！ほんとに行って良かったです！

The meal was hearty and delicious, featuring Hawaiian cuisine and roast beef, although the dining time felt a bit long. Once the show started, the atmosphere changed dramatically, with a packed lineup of hula dancing, fire performances, and shows featuring Elvis and Michael Jackson. Many of the songs were not from our generation, but the production was authentic and engaging, making it very enjoyable. Since we had VIP seats, we were able to watch from the central front row, which was impressive. After the show, we also had the opportunity to take photos with the performers, which made for a great keepsake.

食事はハワイアン料理やローストビーフなどボリュームがあり美味しかったですが、食事の時間は少し長めに感じました。
ショーが始まると一気に雰囲気が変わり、フラダンスやファイヤーパフォーマンス、エルヴィスやマイケル・ジャクソンのショーなど盛りだくさんの内容でした。私たちの世代ではリアルタイムではない曲も多かったのですが、演出が本格的で見応えがあり、とても楽しめました。VIP席だったので、中央前列で見れて迫力がありました。
ショーの後には出演者の方と写真を撮ることもでき、良い記念になりました。

This is my first time at this kind of show, and it was more enjoyable than I expected. The venue isn't very large, so I think you can enjoy it from anywhere.

この種のショーは初めてですが、思った以上に楽しかった。
会場はそんなに広くないのでどこから見ても楽しめると思います。

The content was very good, but the venue was unexpectedly too cold, and by the end, I found myself wanting to leave quickly. However, it was fun.

内容はとても良かったが、会場が予想異常に寒すぎて最後のほうは、早く出たいと思ってしまいました。
でも楽しかったです。

I was able to see beautiful sunsets and rainbows, creating truly wonderful memories of Hawaii. The staff's service was also fantastic, and they really lifted our spirits! We participated with our 0-year-old child, and everything went smoothly. However, I got quite seasick, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness bring some medication!

綺麗なサンセットも虹も見ることができて本当に最高のハワイの思い出ができました。
スタッフさんの対応も素晴らしく私たちを盛り上げてくれました！
0歳児も一緒に参加しましたが問題なく過ごすことができました。
ただ私は結構酔ったので、酔いやすい人は酔い止めを持参することをオススメします！

It was an incredibly fun show that fused various elements like hula dancing, fire shows, and Michael Jackson! I had a great time✨ Since it was a weekday, there were only about a third of the seats filled.

フラダンスやファイアーショーやマイケルジャクソンなど様々な分野が融合してて最高に楽しいショーでした！とても楽しめました✨
平日だったのでお客さんは会場の1/3ほどしかいませんでした。

We booked the Friday night fireworks cruise for Halloween. We got married that day and this was a fun way to celebrate with our adult children. The cruise was fun and the kids enjoyed the open bar. The fireworks were great.

On the evening before my return home, I visited. I was very satisfied with both the meal and the dessert, and the live music was great as well. Dining outdoors while listening to Hawaiian music in the evening breeze became a memorable experience.

帰国前日夕方、伺いました。食事もデザートまで、又ライブも大変満足できました。
屋外、夜風の中でのハワイアンミュージックを聞きながらの食事、思い出になりました。

The seat was in the second cheapest location, but it was very good! By chance, there were many empty seats, and the actors were close, which really excited me! Perhaps because there were small children, the actors in the audience winked and waved, which was fun.

座席は2番目に安い場所でしたが、とても良かったです！
たまたまですが空席も多くアクターが近くてテンション上がりました！
小さい子供がいたからか客席のアクターはウインクしてくれたり、手を振ってくれたり楽しかったです。

This was my first time seeing Cirque du Soleil. According to my companion, it's rare to see a performance in such a small venue where the distance to the stage is close from any seat. We watched from the very front row, and if you have the budget, definitely choose the front row. The immersion is incredible. You can feel the water splashes, the performers' breaths, sweat, and voices. I have become a fan of Cirque du Soleil. It made my trip to Hawaii even more special.

今回初めてシルクドソレイユを見ました。
連れ曰くこんなに小箱で見せてくれるところは珍しいらしくどの席からも舞台の距離が近いです。
1番前の席から私たちは見ましたが、お金に余裕があるならぜひ1番前の席を選んでください。没入感がすごいです。
水しぶきや演者の呼吸、汗、声を感じることができます。
私はシルクドソレイユのファンになりました。
ハワイの旅をより一層特別なものにしてくれました。
