Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing
Fun First Time Family Activity
Reviewed by: Michelle Thompson
I brought my family to the luau since it was our first time to Hawaii. The dancers, musicians and fire knife dancers were very impressive. The food was abundant and pretty good. The weather cooperated, and it was a lovely evening.
Compared to other luau experiences I looked at, this one was affordable. However, I didn’t feel like the food was as good as it could have been. The chicken was good—but it was dark meat. The pork was tender but had little flavor. The dessert was cake with a few pieces of pineapple next to it. Pretty expensive for dinner and entertainment.
It was nice that two drink tickets for beer, wine or Mai Tais were included with each ticket and free water and juice were available to all.
It was fun that the cast came out afterwards so people could have their pictures taken with them.

They say Hawaii is beautiful I totally agree, we had the deluxe package, I wasn’t feeling good and almost canceled wow I’m so glad I didn’t it was amazing, the tour guide was hilarious and sweet, the food was emasculate,you get plenty, there were games to play and tattoos the only thing that was disappointing was my husband ask to take a picture of the beautiful birds next to the water and was told No, but the rest of the people we’re great the singers, and especially the dancers but a huge shout out to the fire show it was worth everything penny that you pay it’s something everyone should see it was my birthday so I got a shout out Thank you so much, I wanted this since I was seven yes old and didn’t get to enjoy it like I wished but I made it thank you all for an awesome day the Arms family

最高でした❣️
Reviewed by: オリーブ
今回、家族5人、妹家族3人、友達家族5人で参加しました。
以前、ポリネシアンセンターのフラを見たのですが、ご飯もイマイチで、遠かったため、今回はアウラニ滞在中に歩いて行けたのも魅力的でした。
前方かBox席のどちらかというのを申し込みましたが、後ろのBox席で、やすい席だと、写真が有料、ビッフェスタイルなのが、写真付き、お食事も配膳され、大人1人20ドル子供1人19ドルのクーポンがついてきたので、それで飲み物やお土産を買うことができ子供がいても持ってきてもらえるのがとても助かりました。
ショーが始まるまでに、写真を撮ったり、レイを作ったり、ポリネシアンタトゥーをダンサーの方達が腕に描いてくださったり、とても楽しい時間が過ごせました。
食事も、はじめは、サラダから。しかも3種ほどのっていて、美味しかったです。これも、量がすごい！
次にポーク、チキン、フィッシュと、ご飯でたくさんのっていて、どれも美味しかったです。
食事の後はダンスショー！
フラも、ファイヤーダンスも子供たちも釘付けで、暗くなると星も本当に綺麗で、来てよかったなーと、本当に思いました。
コオリナなので、ワイキキからは、遠いと思いますが、料理やサービスを考えると行って良かったと思います。

Unless you pay for the front seats you cannot see anything.
Reviewed by: Dee
I sat towards the center tables to the left. I couldnt see anything because the performers sit too low on the stage. Also many people in the front seats (as if they already not happy enough with their view) would stand up and block our view. I missed the fire show. :(

現地のハワイアンショーのフラダンスやファイヤーダンス等とっても楽しかった！！
ただ、現地での日本語アナウンスは無いので、
ノリにはついていけず。
日本人も殆どいませんでした。
多少英語ご話せるなら、もっと楽しめたし、

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing
Kind of disappointed…
Reviewed by: Mandy
The show was overall good, especially the fire dance at the end. And the chief is quite talented because he needs to run the show, tell jokes and play drums.
Anyway,
This luau is inside the water park, and we use the restroom inside the water park which is a 5 minutes away from the luau place. Before the sun goes down, it’s very hot and sweaty. And we don’t have much space while seating. The experience was not pleasant.
Also, after everyone takes a picture and ready to seat down, they give u a cup of mai tai and takes one of the drink tickets. Don’t take that Mai Tai drink right away, just go to the bar section for the drinks.
And there are one thing I can’t figure it out, before the buffet starts, they showed us a roast pig and said this is gonna be one of the main course tonight. And everyone go line up for the buffet, the only dish pork-related is the pull pork which has nothing to do with the roast pig for sure. And they didn’t cut the roast pig in front of everyone. It looks like the roast pig is one of the actor for the luau.
For the price we are paying, we expect more.

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing
Save your money
Reviewed by: Tonette
The pre-show activities ? None of those happened.
I was really looking forward to experience their culture but NO. When we got there, we were welcomed (speech and all that) then lined up for food and drinks then the show started.
I paid for a VIP royal package expecting my experience will be smooth… The only distinction between VIP and non VIP is the table arrangement and priority line for food but doesn’t apply if you wanna get drinks… which was very inconvenient.
Bottom line, I didn’t get my money’s worth.
Hope this helps.

Reviewed by: Melinda Kennedy
My daughter and I had a wonderful time at chief’s luau. The Chief was so funny and they all put on a great show! You could really feel the warmth of his personality shining through his speech and his humor made everything great. Tons of fire dancing, singing, story telling, and more dancing all around. Great food and great people to share the experience with. Felt like you were still in paradise. Definitely recommend purchasing close up seats and the lei package so you can get the full experience. Especially if it’s your first time in Hawaii. Totally worth every penny.

Aloha Val, I'm sorry we didn't have enough of a variety of food to your liking. We couldn't serve you a completely authentic Hawaiian food buffet because you probably wouldn't eat it. We had to do more of a local variety of island favorites to have more of a Hawaiian/American buffet. We offer baked fish, grilled boneless chicken, kalua pork(cooked in the imu, or underground oven), and teriyaki beef along with a fruit salad, macaroni salad, pineapple cole slaw, white rice, plus lomi salmon,& poi(a hawaiian staple)....sweet rolls, and couple desserts. Truly that is quite a variety of food. Not sure how much alcohol you expected,...but we have had some feedback about certain drinks being too strong, so I'm surprised. I'm not sure why the guy collecting the trash missed you, but I apologize for him. Thank you so much for your feedback, and hope that you will one day return to our island and our luau again!! Mahalo, Germaine's Luau
