When you go to the reception at check-in time, you are first seated at a long table outside. The spacing between the chairs is a bit tight, so it feels like you're crammed in among strangers.
You receive a complimentary welcome drink, along with two free drink vouchers (you can choose whether they include alcohol). The meals are served buffet-style, and there were also some light entertainment during the meal. The taste was average, but the drinks (cocktails) were delicious.
Before long, we were guided inside the venue to watch the show, and finally, it was time for the Hawaiian show.
It started with hula dancing, followed by impersonations of Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross, and there was also a fire dance. The quality of the show was high, and I really enjoyed it.
チェックインタイムに受け付けに行くと、まず外にある長いテーブルに座らされます。椅子の間隔がやや狭いので、知らない人の中に詰め込まれる感じです。
無料のウェルカムドリンク、それとは別にドリンク2杯の無料券がもらえます(アルコール有無が選択できる)。
食事はビッフェ形式で、食事中もちょっとした余興がありました。お味は普通かな。飲み物(カクテル)は、美味しかったです。
そうこうしているうちに、ショーを見るために館内へ入るように案内され、いよいよハワイアンショーです。
フラダンスに始まり、エルビス・プレスリー、マイケル・ジャクソン、ダイアナ・ロスのそっくりさんショーがあり、ファイアーダンスもありました。ショーの完成度は高く楽しめました。

We celebrated the night before our marriage on this event. We were a large group of 27. They accommodated us and sat us all together. The entertainment and the food were excellent. The servers kept everything flowing and joyful. Very organized and fun. I really enjoyed the dancers and singers. They performed in front of us and had them all over so everyone could enjoy them. The only bummer was that I specifically chose to go on the Friday sunset cruise for the firework show. However, it didn’t happen due to the winds. I was very sad. Other than that, I thought it was a fabulous experience.

My new wife and I celebrated our marriage by visiting this place. It was phenomenal. I suggest you pay the extra money and upgrade to the royalty package. We sat right in front of the stage, were served our food and drinks, no need to get in line, given two commemorative bags for hot or cold food, and enjoyed ourselves so much. The host on the tour bus, Sia, gets Five gold stars and 100 thumbs up. She was so entertaining. Even when coming back, she was interactive at an exponential level. We are so impressed and happy when we think of her and the luau.
We will certainly be doing this again. Hopefully soon.

My first experience at Chief’s Luau 9 months ago was great, so when my family decided on attending a luau during this trip to Oahu, I thought Chief’s Luau would be a great choice. With pure luck, we were sat at the same table as the last time and it was front and center seating. Any closer, our eyebrows probably would of burned off by the fire show. In addition to the great seating, we loved Chief’s jokes, the dancers all performed amazingly, and the staff were all really nice. I would definitely recommend to others.

Michael Jackson was terrible.
He was overweight, danced poorly, and lip-synced.
I wonder what he was trying to do—was there a lack of talent?
There was no emotion or satisfaction.

太めで、ダンスが下手で口パク

The grounds are beautiful and larger than I expected. We allowed an hour to explore the grounds but could have easily spent 2-3 hours looking at all of the scenery. The luau was a lot of fun. There were some hands-on activities before we were seated which were fun. Once seated, we had a great meal and were offered seconds. I could barely finish my 1st plate:)
The entertainment was truly fun. Lots of stories, dancing, singing and some comedy. The closing of the show had fire dancers and one was a 10-year-old boy who could twirl the fire stick outrageously fast. Overall, this was a great experience which I would do again if I were in Honolulu with a car.
Aloha Kris! We're glad that you had a great experience at the luau and had fun. Mahalo for this review, we greatly appreciate it! Hopefully you'd visit us again. Mahalo nui loa!

I had a great time with the show, which featured a variety of attractions like Michael, an Elvis impersonator, Hawaiian dance, and fire dance, keeping us entertained throughout. It's also within walking distance from the Hilton, making it a nice stroll. As a bonus, it includes a buffet. With the group, there were quite a number of people, seated at long tables of about ten. Since everything is in English, if you can communicate to some extent, you can enjoy conversations with the guests next to you. I had some light conversations with a family from the mainland. Their daughter was adorable. One downside is that there is quite a bit of time to wait for the buffet, making it a bit challenging to pass the time.
マイケル、プレスリーのそっくりさん、ハワイアンダンス、ファイアーダンスなど、次から次のアトラクションで、飽きさせない構成のショーで、十分に楽しめました。また、ヒルトンからも歩いていける距離なので、お散歩がてらにもよかったです。おまけと言っては何ですが、ビュッフェ付きです。団体さんも含めるとかなりの人数。順番に10人程度の長テーブル単位。すべて英語ですので、ある程度コミュニケーションできるとお隣のお客さんとも会話を楽しめるかと思います。私は、本土からのご家族とたわいのない会話。娘さんがかわいかったです。ビュッフェの順番まで時間が結構ありますので、時間つぶすのが難点です。
