The Star of Honolulu sunset cruise, was awesome! My husband surprised me with the dinner cruise to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Once on board, we met and had a picture taken with the Captain. We visited with some of the staff, they were fascinated that we were American Indians. Once the cruise set off, appetizers were served and it was the beginning of the amazing 7 course dinner. Each course was better than the previous dish served. The serving staff were fantastic, took care of any needs or questions we had. The entertainment was extraordinary, from the piano player, Hawaiian dancers to the beautiful singer at the end. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something very special for any occasion.

From the moment that we first interacted with staff at the shuttle bus pick-up, the whole package was seamless. Staff made the bus ride and boarding so easy that we just had to be swept along and enjoy the experience. The management on the boat was also superb, but kept personal. The Friday night fireworks just completed a beautiful night.

The day after our wedding in Hawaii, we took both families, including our parents and grandmothers, to see some activities! We were satisfied with the food, and the main show was enjoyable for both our student cousins and grandmothers. It had a strong element of impersonation and was of high quality.

Shows at each of the Polynesian cultures were scheduled to flow from one to the other. Huki: A Canoe Celebration was a beautiful gathering of the features of all cultures represented at the park. Being a small physical park area, walking between activities was not stressful and workers were happy to help if you couldn't find a show. Great value for money.

On the day of the event, it was a bit disappointing that the luau was held indoors due to the weather, but I was greeted with a lei at the entrance and chose a Mai Tai. There were many types of food available to fill up before the show, and I was quite satisfied. The show included audience participation events, creating a friendly atmosphere. The singing and hula were fantastic, and the fire dance brought everything to a climax. It was an incredibly enjoyable evening.
当日は天候の影響で室内でのルアウとなり少し残念でしたが
入り口でレイを掛けていただき、マイタイをチョイス。
ショーの前の腹ごなしも多くの種類が並び満腹になりました。
ショーでは客席参加型のイベントもあり和やかな雰囲気でした。
歌、フラも最高、ファイヤーダンスで最高潮となり

I took advantage of the long holiday to travel to Hawaii. While looking for optional activities, I found Paradise Cove in Ko Olina, where you can enjoy an authentic luau, and I signed up out of curiosity. On the day of the event, when I arrived 30 minutes before the opening, there were already many people lined up. Once the doors opened, we received a welcome drink (either alcoholic or soft drink) and were greeted with leis as we entered. After that, they reserved seats for us from the front. I understood the meaning of lining up. You can enjoy activities until the meal. Everyone gathers at the sound of the conch shell. Even if you don't understand the language, you can have fun. By the way, there were no Japanese people there today. It really felt like being in a foreign country! The meal is served buffet-style, and you can also enjoy traditional whole roasted pig. The show is amazing. It's different from any hula or luau I've seen before. You definitely have to try it!!
連休を利用してハワイ旅行に行きました。オプショナルを探していたところコオリナに本物のルアウを堪能できるパラダイスコーブがあることを知り興味本位に申し込みをしました。申し込みの日、開場の30分前に行くともう大勢の人が並んでいました。開場が始まりウエルカムドリンク(アルコールかソフトドリンク)をいただきレイの歓迎を受け入場しました。その後、席の場所を前の方から予約してくれます。列ぶ意味がわかりました。食事までアクティビティを楽しめます。ホラガイの音に皆集まります。言葉がわからなくても楽しめました。ちなみに今日は日本人は一人もいませんでした。外国に来たってかんじですか!食事はバイキング方式で伝統の豚の丸焼きも食べれます。ショーは最高です。今まで見たフラ、ルアウと一味違います。ぜひご賞味あれ!!

We attended with seven family members in the Diamond Seat. The price is high, but the major benefits are being able to watch the show from the front row and having priority access to the buffet. The buffet had a long line, possibly due to the Golden Week crowds, and it was disappointing to be cut in line by those who didn't have priority. The drink bar also had a Japanese menu available. Additionally, they take a photo of you at the beginning, and later a staff member comes around selling the framed photo for $50, which is amusing. After the show, the performers allow you to take pictures in the hallway, so that was satisfying.
家族7人で、ダイヤモンドシートで参加しました。
価格は高いですが大きいメリットは、最前列でショーを観れる・ビュッフェが最優先で並べるの2点です。ビュッフェはGWの混雑のせいか長蛇の列で、優先ではない方に割込みされ残念でした。
ドリンクバーは日本語メニューもありました。
また、最初に写真撮られ、後でまわってくるスタッフさんが写真たて付き50ドルで売りに来ます笑
ショーの後、出演者の方が廊下で写真を撮らせてくれるのでそれで満足でした。

We purchased the Super Ambassador package and we were treated like royalty. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and respectful. Iotua was our guides name so we highly recommend him. Learning about the other islands in the pacific was fun. They told you just enough that now we would like to visit each one. The parade on water was really something you don’t want to miss.

I thought it was a bit expensive, but the show was impressive, the location was great, and the food was really delicious. The male dancers were cool!
I opted for the premium plan, but I don't think there was much difference in viewing the show. It was more about being able to eat first at the buffet. I'm not sure about the standard seats, but the seats at the very back were arranged as round tables for 5-6 people, and you could see the stage directly, so that might have been better. The show is conducted in English, but there was someone who explained the process of making clothes from tree bark in Japanese.
ちょっと高いかなと思っていましたが、ショーは見ごたえがあり、ロケーションがよくて、食事もすごく美味しかったです。
メンズのダンサーがかっこよかったですよ~
プレミアムプランにしていましたが、ショーの観覧にはあまり差はなかったと思います。どちらかというと、食事(ビュッフェ)が先に食べられるということだけかな。スタンダード席かどうかわかりませんが、一番後方の席が5-6人の丸テーブルになっていて、正面にステージが見られるので、そのほうが良かったかな。
ショーは英語で行われますが、その前の木の皮から服を作る工程については、日本語での説明をしてくれるひとがいました。

I arranged this as a surprise for my 85 year old mother for her first trip to Hawaii. She was so thrilled and very impressed by the young lady (Briana) who met us with the lei and took pictures of us together. It was the perfect start to a beautiful and memorable vacation. My mom wore the lei for several days and couldn’t resist telling everybody about her experience
Aloha Karen!

Everything you want in a luau...take your sandles off, walk by a lagoon at sunset while drinking a mai tai, and then enjoy a feast while watching an amazing Polynesian performance. The pre-luau events were fun for the whole family. My favorite was the shower of flowers. While the actual shower of flowers was fragrant and beautiful, I was most impressed by the person who climbed to the top of the palm tree within 30 seconds...while carrying a linen bag full of flowers! My future mother-in-law's favorite activity was the spear throwing. Even though she missed the target, she had fun and we enjoyed cheering her on.
This luau is packed full of fun activities and entertainment. You're sure to leave with memories you'll cherish.

From the greeters to the servers to the Chief himself, everyone treated us like we were a part of the family. It felt like a big family reunion.
The food was delicious, and even if you're vegetarian or vegan like me, there are plenty of options! I had a mountain of food on my plate and didn't leave hungry.
The entertainment was my favorite part. Talented hula and warrior dancers performed traditional dances from various regions of Polynesia. So it was both entertaining and educational. I highly recommend this luau!

I made a reservation for my mother, who loves hula. The weather was favorable in early April, and it was comfortable at first, but as the sun went down, it became chilly, and I regretted not bringing a jacket. The show was of high quality, and I was satisfied to be able to show her authentic hula. This time, I chose the Golden Seat, but since we arrived late, we ended up with seats on the edge, which was disappointing. Next time, I definitely want to reserve the Diamond Seat and see it up close.

This luau show was a bit different from what I've seen before, and as expected from Hilton, it was great! I had a very good seat in the front center. However, since the venue is relatively small, I think the experience would still be quite impressive from any front row seat, not just the center ones.

There were families present, so I felt comfortable enjoying it! The dynamic fire show and the beautiful hula were both fantastic. I even got to participate in the show with the dancers... The buffet-style meal, where you can choose what you like, was also great. Everyone who participated was very happy, and I was extremely satisfied!

This is a must do experience if one wants to know more about the Polynesian Culture!
My friends and I got the Ambassador package and was extremely amazed with how all the performers, guides and crew were doing everything with so much heart and passion! There is no lying on how one consistently feels so intrigued with learning about another culture.
Despite this being a manicured and curated tourist attraction with a make-believe setting, it doesn't disappoint. Being called "family" all the time does make the entire experience different.
The Luau night show is not be be missed! The show is called Hai and is so well done that I personally want to experience it again!
Overall, there is nothing much to fault. Also note that tickets purchased and not single entry! You can go back again on another day to continue your tour if you have missed out on certain experiences.
Thumbs up!
