一昨年 友人と二人で参加。バスに乗り込むや、すごいノリの外国人達に圧倒され、これは何事が起きるんだろうと、それはもうドキドキでした。帰るまで、一度も日本人に会うことも無く、不思議な世界に放り出された気分でした。そのワクワク体験を別の友人にも感じてもらいたくて、再度 このツアーに申し込みました。今回も大うけで、とても楽しめました。また機会が有れば、参加したいです。

I would highly recommend this activity as a 'must do' during your Hawaii vacation.
The whole tour, from initial booking via Hawai Activities, to collection from our hotel, transport, and the Luau experience at Paradise Cove was sensational!
The tour guide Pomai was entertaining and knowledgable and 'included' everyone as a family unit. The staff at Paradise Cove were friendly and helpful and their enthusiasm and smiles made the experience unique and breathtaking.
The hospitality, food and entertainment was second to none.
One of our best holiday experiences ever!!!!

今回、家族での初めての旅行で思い出の地のHAWAIIを選択してこのツアーに申し込みました。
ここは自分も初めてのところでしたがガイドさんの対応も良くとても楽しめました。
子供たちも、ワイキキでは「外国に来た気がしないね」と言っていましたがこのツアーは「外国に来た気がする」(笑)と言って大喜びでした。最初は緊張していましたがHOTELに帰ると興奮してショーの話をしていました。
ポリネシアンカルチャーセンターに比べ小振りでアトラクションも少ないですがその分ゆっくり楽しめたので良かったです。
ありがとうございました。

The luau was good. The only thing I would suggest is to not have the people waiting outside so before getting on the bus. The temperature outside was already hot and then the heat from the bus's engine made it worst. We waited outside the bus for 45 minutes before we could get on.

There was too much going on. We were standing in the lines to do the crafts before we realized that the main events were going on elsewhere. Not sure how we were supposed to know what was going on, but I feel like we missed a lot. Food was good and the main show after dinner was good.

Dears Sirs, Aloha. I completely enjoy your show and over all Luau, and have attanded your facility for three consecutive Island visits.
Each time I come, I bring new visitors to the Islands and they always enjoy the Luau activities/show.
I remember additional games and venders and missed them both this late trip.
I will continue to visit and recommend you to others s a must do when in Oahu.
Aloha

You get lei'd and you get a welcome drink and your picture taken with a hula dancer. You get to do activities like how to make a lei and get your picture taken while you are ona canoe ride. Then you get a little bit of Polynesian history of how to get and break a coconut, how the old hawaiians catch fish, and the many different ways to wear a sarong. Then everyone gathers in the Imu Stadium where you see the unveiling of the slow cooked wrapped in Ti leaves, Kahlua Pig from the pit. Then they sit you down for a delicious luau feast. And you can asks for 2nds and 3rds. Then concluding night of an hour long fantastic entertaining show of music, hula dancing and a Samoan fire dance. It is located in Ko Olina. Fabulous ocean views and sunset. Do not forget your camera! Alooooooooooha!

Paradise Cove was suggested to us by our travel agent and she was right! The bus was a little noisey for us but everyone was having a great time! The activities before the show were a lot of fun, the food was delicious and the entertainment was top notch. This was a great experience and we will certainly return!

I went to Polynissian culture center last year, and I choose to paradise cove this time. I have to recommand this warm, friendly, delightful environment that not only provided me good foods, but also great entertainment!
The drink was great too. Even with the cheapest ticket, I still got two free alcohol drinks.
It was awesome to see sunset on the beautiful beach and interesting shows at the same time.
I enjoyed paradice cove a lot, it's a good place to go if you like unique place to enjoy luau and Hawaiian cultures.

There were a lot of lines all night. From the moment we met the bus until the moment we got off. We had to wait to get in but fortunately a beverage was provided in that one. We had children who wanted to do many of the activities and they made sure you didn't miss them with a load conch call. This brought a huge crowd to see each event. My kids would not let us miss one. The bummer was the cove and location was beautiful and we didn't get a moment to take it all in as a family because one of us was in line the entire time. You should know that dinner is not served until after 7pm so make sure you have a late lunch. I wish I would of known that. Show was great but the many costume changes meant many slow intermission like moments all night. Not my favorite night.

This was our second time attending the Paradise Cove Luai. It was nice seeing, hearing, and experiencing a Christmas theme to the evening. Two items, the evening seemed rushed, there was not enough time between activities to truely enjoy the evening - our bus arrived, dropped us off, and the race was on... we did not get to participate in all of the pre-show activities. The second was the food was okay, but not what I would consider great - which is why the value rating dropped to so-so.

3月はじめ、まさに津波の日に予約していましたが、まったく連絡なくキャンセルに。ピックアップ場所で1時間以上も待ちながら電話をかけつづける(つながらない)という大惨事に。アラン1さんのご尽力もあり、次の日にずらして参加できましたが、ショーの前のいろいろなイベント(木登りとか、カヌーとか・・・)、ショー、食事、すべてが微妙でした・・・ メリハリがないというか、散漫というか・・・ フラを楽しみにしていましたが、常磐ハワイアンセンターのフラのほうがよっぽどよかった・・・。印象がよくないのは、とにかくめちゃめちゃ寒かったからかも・・・。海辺のロケーションが売りなわけですが、それだけに風も強いし、日が落ちるとかなり寒かったです。私はもう行きませんが、行かれる方は、季節によって防寒対策をしっかりしていくことをおすすめします。

家族で参加しました。
私たちはバスツアーではなく、レンタカーで現地に向かいましたが、下道もハイウェイも渋滞で遅刻参加になってしまいました。
英語が不得意ですが、到着が遅れることを連絡したかったので電話をかけてみると、日本語が分かるスタッフに代わってもらえました。
1時間ほど遅刻しましたが問題なく会場に入れました。
体験談で読んだ通り見たところ日本人は私たち以外一人もいませんでした。
服装はほとんどの男性はアロハシャツ、女性はムームーを着ていました。
ステージが始まる前に、民族の伝統文化の紹介などがあり、少しずつ盛り上がってきました。
18:30くらいから石のベンチのステージでハワイアンバンドの演奏が始まり、ダンスや、料理の紹介があり、19:00からはビュッフェディナーをいただきながら、メインステージでのショーが始まりました。
歌、ダンス、ファイアーショー、どれもすばらしく、ハワイを堪能できました。
迫力のポリネシアンダンスの後は、希望者がステージに上がり、ノリノリでダンスをしてとてもおもしろかったです。
料理は美味しい物はありませんでした。
英語の不得意な私は、他の人が飲んでいた、フルーツが乗ってる美味しそうな飲み物は何かなーと思いながら、ドリンクメニューを見ましたがよくわからず、結局コロナビールを頼んで飲みました。ドリンクチケットは余りました。
言葉の不自由はあったものの、とても満足できる内容で、家族みんなとても楽しませていただきました。
次回の旅行の際も是非参加したいと思いますが、次回はバスツアーに参加したいと思います。
夕方は毎日渋滞するらしいので、車で参加の人はかなり余裕を持って出発されることをおすすめします。

This luau was really fun and I am glad we chose it over the PCC so we could have the real mai tai's! Our guide (cousin Kahale) was a hoot! He made the trip so enjoyable and deserves a raise. We got stuck in traffic so it took forecer to get there and then we were rushed to try and do the activities which were just hum drum to begin with. But the absolutely stunning scenery on the beach where it is located is to die for and made up for the lack of interest in activities. I enjoyed the food and the show very much and would defiantely go back and take the whole family.

We reviewed this Luau on the internet prior to our arrival and felt that this was the one and we were sincerely not disappointed. In fact, this was our second Luan during our stay and I assure you that this one is and was the best.
Not only was our Luau experience the best the drive to and from the event on bus #5 was fantastic. The driver was U and the guide/orator was Pompani (I think). You should have at least ten (10) Pompani’s since he made the experience a time to remember.
He was courteous, experienced, and a real performer. He was able to make the trip to and from one to remember. In addition the Luau, performance, food, and location were fantastic. We would sincerely recommend this to anyone that we will interface with if they want places to go on their Hawaiian vacation.
Please let Pompani know that he made the evening one to remember and do whatever it takes to keep him on your staff.

I loved the Paradise Cove Luau! It's location is beautiful! A sunset party on a private beach is a great way to start off your Hawaiian vacation! I went to the luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center years ago, and the festivities were very nice, but there were no cocktails, and no beach. At Paradise Cove, it really felt like a party. I even got a Hula certificate for coming on stage to learn! We booked the Orchid (middle) level, and it seemed just right. I love the orchid leis that we received. If there was one thing I would like to change, it was that even though 3 drinks were "included" in my package, almost every drink still cost $1-$6 extra. I expected only to pay gratuity out-of-pocket when I got there. Overall, though, I had a great time!

体験談に英語ばかり、日本人が少ない。と書き込みがあり、不安でしたが、スタッフの方が片言の日本語で説明してくださいますし、バスの中でのお話は、英語だらけですが、一日のスケジュールを日本語案内のメモを配ってくださいますし、安心です。
私の参加した回は、3組の日本人の方がいました。
英語の全くわからない私でしたが、海外の雰囲気・ノリを味わえ貴重な体験でした。
ショーが始まるまで、カヌー体験をしウミガメに出会えました。タトゥーを書いてもらったり、楽しいうれしい体験でした。
ショーが始まる前に食事をとりに行く時間があります。フライドチキン絶品です。ショーの最中に飲み物がなくなるとスタッフの方が気を利かして飲み物をとりに行ってくださり、ゆっくりとショーを満喫できました。

A bit overrated and touristy, im a vegetarian who does eat seafood but there were no vegetarian options so veggies beware as you;ll be stuck only eating salad, activities sound a lot more interesting on paper then in person, consists of a 2 second canoe ride in a circle near the shore, throwing a stick at a bale of hay, someone making you a flower bracelet, and throwing a wooden thing and a stone against a board, the actual luau dance was pretty good and the fire dance was amazing, dinner should be served sooner and the real entertainment should start earlier, the bus took forever to get there and your free mai tai just tastes like juice and no alcohol. drinks were way overpriced but is nice that your ticket includes 3 free drinks but our quite small and they loor people into buying bigger ones for 3 dollars each so they make the money back. all in all it was good to experience it for my first time but it was very unauthentic and cheesy to us.
