「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>

Delicious buffet and exciting show! 美味しいブュッフェと興奮のショー!

Reviewed by: りょうた

I participated in my honeymoon trip. The explanation for the order of going to the buffet was a bit unclear, but I was able to enjoy various Hawaiian dishes. The food was delicious. By the way, there were mostly international guests, and I was a bit anxious about the few Japanese participants, but a dancer with ties to Japan was very considerate.

We were seated in the second floor, but we were only about 10 meters away from the stage, so we had a great view. The show featured performances by Elvis and Michael Jackson, and the final fire show was incredibly impressive.

It turned out to be the best trip to Hawaii!

新婚旅行で参加しました。
ビュッフェを取りに行く順番の説明が少し分かりにくかったですが、色々なハワイ料理を楽しめました。料理は美味しかったです。ちなみに、ほぼ海外の方で日本人の参加は少なくて不安でしたが、日本にゆかりのあるダンサーが気遣いをしてくれました。
ショーは2階席でしたが、ステージから10メートルくらいしか離れておらず、とてもよく見えました。ショーにはプレスリーやマイケルジャクソンも出てきましたし、ファイナルのファイヤーショーは迫力満点でした。
最高のハワイ旅行になりました!

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

Great Experience at the Rock A Hula

Reviewed by: Eric Y

My wife and I are in Honolulu for our honeymoon and we cannot have picked a better Luau. The dinner and show is conveniently located in Waikiki, central to all the shopping and hotels. We were happily greeted by the staff right from checking in and the performers, hosts, servers were also very nice. They go above and beyond to make sure that every guest has a great experience. The buffet dinner had a lot of variety of foods that cater to everyone. After dinner, we headed into the theatre for the show. They took us through the history of Hawaii with music and dancing which was very entertaining. All the performers were truly talented. Especially the fire dancing! We would highly recommend this to our friends and families.

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

A great and smoothly run experience!

Reviewed by: Stu

This sunset dinner cruise was a truely amazing experience for myself and my partner.
The three course dinner was ok, the appetiser and dessert were nothing special, but the main meal was incredible!!! We both couldn’t get enough of the crab!
The dancers were all very talented and was great entertainment onboard.
The singer and his niece also provided great entertainment in between meals.
The fireworks towards the end was also an amazing experience I will not soon forget.
One thing that stopped this from being a 5-star experience was that we were sat opposite a random couple on the same table as us, making this ‘date night’ a lot more awkward than we had expected.

「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>

A night of great excitement! 大盛り上がりの夜!

Reviewed by: ゆゆゆ

I was a bit anxious because there were mostly foreign participants and few Japanese attendees, but it was great that the luau buffet menu had Japanese descriptions. I was able to enjoy various Hawaiian dishes. A welcome drink was included, but any additional orders would incur extra charges. The roast beef and pork dishes were carved right in front of us. There were also desserts. Even from the second-floor seating, the show was very visible, but since both the show and buffet prioritize VIPs, I thought it might be worth paying for that. During the show, the Japanese attendees were wearing masks. The impersonations, hula, and fire dance were incredibly powerful and exciting, and I was glad to participate and feel the essence of Hawaii.

ほぼ海外の方で日本人の参加は少なくて不安でしたが、ルアウビュッフェメニューは日本語表記があったためよかったです。色々なハワイ料理を楽しめました。ウェルカムドリンクも1杯ついていて、それ以降注文する場合は別途お金がかかります。ローストビーフと豚料理は目の前で切り分けてくれました。デザートもあります。二階席でもショーはとてもよく見えましたが、ショーもビュッフェもVIP優先の順番になるため課金してもいいかなと思いました。ショー中は日本人の方はマスクをしていました。ものまねやフラ、ファイヤーダンスなどすごい迫力と盛り上がりで、参加してハワイを感じられてよかったです。

It was very delicious and the portion was large! とても美味しく量が多かったです!

Reviewed by: サーフ

I chose this restaurant with live music by the poolside for my 80-year-old mother, who is traveling abroad for the first time with my spouse, hoping to have a dinner that feels like Hawaii. As soon as we entered the hotel, we could hear the music, and it was easy to find the restaurant. We waited about 10 minutes in line with three other groups, but it didn't feel long. Our seats were close to the stage, and there was a reserved sign placed there. Since we were a party of three, we could order almost all the menu options available, and everything was delicious and generously portioned. I was surprised by the size of the salad, and seeing the two types of main dishes accompanied by mashed potatoes made me feel like I was in Hawaii (laughs). We didn't touch the Huli Huli chicken and took it home as takeout for dinner the next day. Even the next day, it was tender after reheating. I found the pineapple crème brûlée to be quite delicious.

夫婦で海外旅行初の80歳になる母親に、ハワイらしい場所でディナーをと思いプールサイドで生演奏のあるこのレストランを選びました。ホテルに入ると音楽が聞こえてきて、レストランの場所はすぐにわかりました。3組くらいの順番待ちで10分程度待ちましたが、長くは感じませんでした。席はステージに近い横の方でしたがよく見える場所で、リザーブの札が置いてありました。3人で参加したので、選択できるメニューはほとんど注文できましたが、どれも美味しく、どれも量が多かったです。サラダの大きさに驚いたのと、メイン料理2種類にマッシュポテトが添えてあったのを見て、ハワイに来た感じを受けました(笑)フリフリチキンは手を付けず、そのまんまテイクアウトして翌日の夕食としていただきました。次の日でもレンチンして柔らかいチキンでした。私はパイナップル・クレームブリュレがかなり美味しかったです。

This was our family’s first ever experience, snorkeling. We did not use the transportation, but drove ourselves. Parking was easy. The check-in process was smooth and on time. The crew was friendly, professional, and extremely entertaining. Sandbar volleyball was a lot of fun and lunch was delicious. We saw so many sea turtles on our way to the reef. We are beginners and the reef size was perfect for us to go all the way around and see lots of fish and turtles.

「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>

A truly wonderful showtime. とても素晴らしいショータイム

Reviewed by: emily

Five years ago, I was moved when I first saw this show, and on the last day of my trip to Hawaii after five years, I went again. Although I was in the second-floor seats (not reserved), I was only about ten meters away from the stage, and the seating was arranged theater-style, rising from the front to the back, so I could see the cast's expressions well. The reception at the show venue starts at 7 PM, the show begins at 7:40 PM, and ends at 9 PM. If you finish an early dinner and enter as soon as the reception starts, you can sit in a good seat right in front of the stage.

Due to the weak yen, the prices have gone up a bit, but compared to show prices in Japan, I think it's still a good deal. I especially recommend this show for fans of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. The show is entirely in English, but even if you don't understand English, you can enjoy it thoroughly.

5年前に初めてこのショーを見て感激し、今回5年ぶりのハワイ旅行の最終日に再び出かけました。2階席(指定席ではない)とは言ってもステージから10メートルくらいしか離れておらず、席は劇場スタイルに前方席から後方席にかけて高くなっているのでキャストの表情も良く見えます。ショー会場の受付開始が19時、開演が19時40分、終演が21時。ちょっと早めの夕食を済ませて、受付開始同時に入場出来ればステージ正面の良い席に座れます。
円安でちょっと料金は高くなりましたが、日本のショー料金と比べたら割安と思います。エルビスプレスリーのファンの方、マイケルジャクソンのファンの方には特におススメのショーです。ショーは全て英語ですが、英語が分からなくても十分楽しめるショーです。

「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>

A small group of Rock-a-Bye. 少人数のロック・ア・フラ

Reviewed by: ゆーー

I used this for my honeymoon.
I had a great time and was very satisfied.
I'll write about the plan details and other specifics.

First of all, I felt that there was a shortage of tourists in Hawaii overall, which led to a shortage of staff.
This wasn't a complaint, but perhaps due to the lack of Japanese tourists, there were few staff members who could speak Japanese, making it a country where good English is necessary.
At the reception area, there was supposed to be a hula dancer, but unlike the photos on this site, there was only one person... (laughs)
Since there were few people at the reception, it felt a bit lonely, but they danced just for us when we asked, so I think that was lucky in a way.

I mentioned that there were few tourists, and this tour also had a small number of participants, so there was plenty of space. However, participants were seated closely together, so the distance was quite close.
Unlike in Japan, no one was wearing masks, so if you're concerned about that, I think you should bring your own mask.
Also, we were told to share pineapples at the table, so there was some interaction with the people at the same table.

Regarding the buffet food, it was set up in a way that you go to each table island to get food, so it didn't feel like a place where you could freely go back for seconds.
I apologize for my poor serving skills, but the food itself was quite delicious. The welcome drink, Mai Tai, was also tasty, so I was satisfied.

Here are some photos from the Rock-a-Hula stage.
Not only hula dancing, but also impersonations of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson were presented in chronological order.
Elvis felt a bit out of place due to the era, but for those in their late 20s, I think they would enjoy the Michael Jackson songs, as he only performed songs that people would recognize.
The venue can hold about 750 people, but I think there were only about 60 during our time.
It felt very sparse, and it seemed like the performers were dancing just for us.
After the show, my wife and I took a photo with Michael.

I wrote this roughly, but it was truly a fun tour.
The waiter during the meal was also dancing in the show, and I couldn't help but think it must be tough for them, but the content was wonderful.
It was sad to feel that such a great show had so few people.
It was so enjoyable that I definitely encourage everyone to participate in this tour.

ハネムーンで利用しました。
とても楽しかったので大満足でした。
プラン内容やその他の詳細書いていきます。

まずはハワイ全体として観光客不足で、それに伴って人手不足だったと感じました。
それが不満だったわけではないのですが、日本人観光客が少ないせいか、日本語を話せるスタッフも少なく、しっかり英語が必要な国になってます。
③受付スペースでフラダンスを踊ってくれていたのですが、このサイトの写真とは異なり1人だけでした、、。笑
そもそも受付している人が少ないので、少し寂しい印象でしたが、お願いすれば自分達のためだけに踊ってくれたので、それはそれでラッキーだったのかなと思います。

②観光客が少ないと書きましたが、このツアーもやはり参加者が少なく、スペースとしては余っていました。しかし、参加者同士は詰めて座らされるので距離はかなり近いです。
日本と違ってマスクしてる人なんていないので、そういうのを気にされる方はご自身でマスクをつけていくべきかと思います。
また、みんなでフラダンスを踊ったりするだけでなく、テーブルでパイナップルを分け合ってくれ、とも言われるので同じテーブルの人とは多少交流することになります。

④ビュッフェの料理ですが、テーブルの島ごとに並んで取りに行く感じなので何回も自由に取りに行く雰囲気ではないです。
私の盛り方が下手で申し訳ないのですが、ご飯自体はかなり美味しかったです。ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイも美味しかったので、満足です。

①ロック・ア・フラのステージの写真です。
フラダンスだけでなく、エルビス・プレスリー、マイケルジャクソンのモノマネが歴史を追って順々に披露されていく感じです。
エルビスは年代からズレているのでふーん、と言った感じでしたが、マイケルジャクソンは20代後半くらいであれば聞いたことある曲しかやらないので、楽しめると思います。
会場自体は750人入れるらしいですが、私たちの時は60人くらいだったと思います。
非常に少なく、演者の人たちが自分たちだけに踊ってくれているように感じました。
ショーの後、私と妻はマイケルと3ショットで写真を撮ってもらいました。

ザックリと書きましたが、本当に楽しいツアーでした。食事の時のウェイターの人が、ショーでも踊っていて、なんだか大変なのかなぁと思ってしまいますが、内容としては素晴らしいです。
こんなに良いショーなのにこんなに人が少ないなんて悲しい、、と感じてしまうほどでした。
とても楽しいので、ぜひ皆さんも参加していただきたいツアーです。

I was disappointed. がっかりしました。

Reviewed by: ダグミ

The voucher mentioned that water would be provided, so I thought it would be cumbersome to carry water while climbing the mountain and decided not to bring any. However, water was only available during lunch, and there were no places to purchase it. At first, I reluctantly started walking towards the waterfall, but it was very humid, and the incline was steeper than I had imagined, making it a tough journey. I took a short break along the way, and realizing that continuing without hydration would be a burden to others, I decided it was best to turn back. It seems that those who participated through HIS were informed in detail to bring their own water since it would only be provided at lunchtime. I believe it's necessary to include such detailed information for future participants. It was very disappointing as this was my husband's retirement trip, and it had been three years since our last visit to Hawaii.

バウチャーに水がいただけると書いてあったので、山に登るのに荷物になると思い水は持参しませんでした。しかし水をいただけるのは昼食の時で購入する場所も一切なくで、最初は仕方なく滝に向けて歩き始めましたがとても蒸暑く想像していたより傾斜がありハードな道のりでした。途中少し休憩をしたので水分補給なしでこのまま最後まで歩くのはかえって他の方に迷惑かかると思い無理と判断して引き返しました。HISから参加した方は細かく水は昼食時に渡すので持参してくださいと記載があったようでした。今後参加する方の為にも細かい記載は必要だと思いました。主人の定年退職記念旅行で3年ぶりのハワイだったので非常に残念でした。

This is my first time joining the Luau dinner with Polynesian Show. When we arrived there was a traditional Hawaiian dance to greeting us. The Luau dinner was tasty. But the line was moving a bit slow. Buffet dinner was starting at 6pm, but when we started getting the food, it was already passed 6:30pm. Not enough time to enjoy the food.

Getting situated to the seating was very easy. Staffs were very friendly and helpful. The dinner itself had a good variety buffet style and was tasty. Overall the line on waiting for the food could have been better. Took me appx 30 minutes before I was lining up for the buffet line. By the time I got my food, only had about 30 minutes left to eat.

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

Review

Reviewed by: Marisa Ramirez

Upon arrival to the Luau we were greeted by a young lady selling beautiful purple lei’s. Of course we had to have one not only for the beauty, but the feeling of being welcomed in to the community as well.
The host/dancer/MC/ bartender was extremely friendly with everyone. We were ushered to our seats by a wonderful young man that not only performed at the luau, but also at Rock a Hula. This young man was full of passion for the culture and the love of dance.
The drinks and pineapple were at great start to our dinner as well as the traditional dancing while we waited for the main course.
There was plenty of dishes to chose from including seafood, pork, beef, chicken, and even vegetarian choices. I personally recommend the fried pig skin as it was the absolute most delectable dish we were privy to enjoy during our visit. After dinner we tried each of the 5 different desserts. None of them blow your socks off, but are nonetheless tasty as well. There is also after dinner coffee for those of you who enjoy a nice hot cup of Joe before the Rock a Hula.
You could order drinks during dinner and before the Rock a Hula began as well.
The choice of a local musician and singer was a wonderful way to start the show. The classic Elvis performance seemed to fit the show perfectly and added to the fun filled and interactive show. The only thing that felt out of place was the Michael Jackson performance. While it wasn’t bad, it just didn’t seem to fit in to the rest of the event in general. I would give the luau and Rock a Hula a 7 out of 10 stars.

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

Exactly as expected and a little more

Reviewed by: Josh B

Overall we got exactly what we were expecting, which, for us, was actually refreshing. So many businesses mislead these days. We were happy with our experience and pleasantly surprised at the Rock A Hula show afterwards.

Our first impression was great. The setup under the large tents and the decor and dishware were all very nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were seated quickly and immediately served our complimentary Mai Tai and offered fresh pineapple at the table. We ordered more adult beverages and while they tasted fine, did not seem to have much if any alcohol in them. The MC did a good job of keeping things running smoothly and had an upbeat attitude. We enjoyed the dancers and learning to hula felt very welcoming. They presented the roasted pig with the traditional apple in its mouth. Definitely try some along with the crispy skin. We found the food at the buffet somewhat bland, but that was our experience throughout most of Hawaii.

After dinner we proceeded to the large theater for the show. This presentation is much bigger and longer than we anticipated. We would attend this show by itself without the dinner and pay handsomely for it. The Elvis and MJ impersonators were great! The charisma and crowd interactions of both of them and other entertainers were spot on! The show is a bit long and disjointed though. And while we do love MJ and his songs, some seemed a bit "off-brand" for a Hawaiian themed hula show. Thriller was one, even though the zombies were great and so was Michael.

Overall we'd give the luau and show a 7 out of 10. Food and drinks could be better and show could be shorter and more on-brand. We would still highly recommend it, especially for the price.

  • Elvis is in the building!

  • The luau

All-Inclusive Oahu Island Tour with Lunch & Waimea Valley Waterfall Nature Walk

Beautiful spots and a great guide

Reviewed by: Laura J

The list of places to visit is nicely curated and I think we had enough time to walk around each site, take photos, and even buy souvenirs. Our guide, Jojo, was fantastic. He had too many stories to tell to keep us entertained and was very knowledgeable about Hawaii's culture, history, and ecology.
The only downside of this tour was that you are on a large bus so, if you are picked up last and have a seat at the back of the bus, you're going to spend a lot of time going on and off. However, Jojo knew that this might be frustrating and started counting time right after the last person was out.
The bus was clean and the lunch was ok.

We attended the Chief's Luau and had a great time. The meal was very good, and the show was outstanding. The chief himself was very entertaining and funny.
