Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing
2 Thumbs Up
Reviewed by: K Born
This was an excellent show and we were so glad we attended. We actually chose to drive to Sea Park, however due to the distance and evening hours, we decided to contact Hawaii Activities to add the transportation 6 hours prior to departure. Hawaii Activities handled everything, and gave us simple instructions to hop aboard the tour bus which was a 1/2 block from where we stayed.
As for "Chiefs Luau", this was so much fun, the entertainment included so many from the crowd, and the "Chief" can definately entertain and bring so much laughter.
Plan on the early activities and particpate. They want to share there culture which is even more fun.
With the evening show, take a light jacket as it can get breezy once the sunsets.
Camera & Video - A MUST

日本語の説明がなかったので、ドキドキものでした。
とりあえず自分のバス番号を確認しておくのがいいと思います。
食事は準備されている時間が短いように思えました。
色々なダンスを見ることができて充実していると思います。

集大成のイベントでした
Reviewed by: トウホウ
ただの4時間で、ビーチ、夕日、カルチャ、フラダンス、食事などいろいろ楽しめる、集大成のイベントでした。バスでの送迎もあって便利です。フラダンスのクオリティは高かったです。特に最後のファイアダンスは最高でした。
ルアウは親戚を集めて宴会を開くようなものなので、参加したら内輪だけで楽しむのではなく、周りの人と積極的にしゃべったほうがいいです。ガイドさんや司会者も、参加者皆をcousinと呼び、たびたび参加者間の交流を促してくれます。

テーブルは購入したランクのエリアで先着順にアサインされます。どの位置でもショーが見えないということは無いでしょう。
ショーが始まるまでは、アクティビティなどで時間を過ごします。
食事、ドリンクともに特筆するものではありません。あくまでショーを楽しむのがメインですので。海外ですので、ステージに上がって一緒に参加するのも楽しいですよ。

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show
A showery day at PCC
Reviewed by: Islander77
We upgraded to the full day, rather than sticking to the late entry. We wanted to have more time to check out the presentations etc. The presentations were interesting and well done. They came over as authentic rather than cheesy or Disneyesque. The staff were excellent all 'round. There were showers passing through, but it didn't take away from our day, as there were plenty of buildings/huts to head into, and showers don't seem to last too long in this part of the world. The entertainment and food at the Luau was good. It did take a long time to get to the lining up and eating part, but there were a lot of people. It would have been better if they started processing the tables through the buffet right after the unveiling of the pig, and we could just watch the entertainment as we went, instead of largely sitting for nearly an hour before anyone started lining up. The HA show was amazing, and I would recommend it too anyone going to Oahu. Overall an opportunity to learn about

まあまあかな？
Reviewed by: hiro
１２月３１日ファミリーで参加、オアフは何度も行っているが、コオリナ地区は初めてなので参加しました。
迎えに来たバスに乗り込むと乗客は全部外国人、バス内の説明も英語のみ、それも弾丸のようなスピードで話すので多少英語がわかる私ですが理解できなかった。ただバスの番号等は紙に書いたものを見せながらの説明なのでわかると思います。
到着してからショーが始まるまでの間アクティビティーに参加の方法がわらなかった。食事についてはフライドチキンが味は良いがあまりに硬くてたべれない、まして母は入れ歯なのでたべれませんでした（笑）。デザートは甘すぎ！
ショーは見ごたえがあったが、私としては全体的にみてワイキキからコオリナまで行かなくてもいいかな？と言う感じです。

Reviewed by: ぎゅうまお
食事とルアウショー前にカヌーややり投げ、タトゥーを書いてもらったりと面白い体験が色々と出来ます。
ドリンク券も２枚ついていてアルコールも大体ＯＫだったのがよかったです。
食事は可もなく不可もなく・・・。フライドチキンは固くてすごくまずかったです。
日本語での説明でないので、英語が苦手な私は聞きとるのに必死でした。
英語が分かればショー自体ももっと盛り上がれるんじゃないかなと思いますが、分からなくても十分楽しめました。

Very Educational
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
I have been here before, so this was my second visit. Just as amazing as the first time I was there. The students who run the programs are so friendly and knowledgeable. The day is very busy, but so much fun. Definitely worth having the tour guide. The center is kept spotless and all of the shows are enjoyable. The best place to visit to learn about the culture you are visiting. Would visit here every time I am on the island. Great trip! Luau is fun and upbeat. The night show is the best!

Alii Luau Polynesian Cultural Exp
Reviewed by: Visitor from Kentucky
This was a full day. Prepare to be exhausted by the end of it. BUT it was well worth it. We paid the extra to use our guide for the day (cousin Cissy) which for sure was the best plan since we would not have seen half of the exhibits and demonstrations that he took us to had we gone it alone. Well worth the extra expense. Cousin Cissy was the best guide - he was totally passionate for his culture and very knowledgeable. He genuinely cared that we saw the best of his people. A perfect day out which ended with an amazing show - a must to see. Our only compaint was the food - it was disappointing and bland. But plenty of it so we did not go hungry.

Everyone was nice almost to the creepy extreme if you are from NY or Chicago. Big BYU influence may have been the reason for the overly dressed female workers. Very child friendly environment. Would defiantly take a young family there.

Polynesian Culture Center
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
The Polynesian Culture Center was a great experience. The representations of the countries were great. The canoe ride, the canoe parade, and the activities were very well done. Our guides, Hannah and Saydie were awesome. They really made our tour special, and were very informative. The HA fire show was amazing !
The only thing that was disappointing was the dinner. There wasn't much of a variety. I went back for seconds and there was barely any food left, and no fruit. It seemed that we were rushed throught dinner. I was very disappointed in what I thought would be an "authentic" luau.

異文化を楽しめる
Reviewed by: ブライアン
ポリネシアン文化センターとは違う雰囲気で、ルアウ専用施設は興味津々でツアーに参加しました。
ピックアップ場所には大勢の人が並んで、人気ぶりは凄いですね。日本人観光客はは少なく、私が乗ったバスには６名だけでした。英語オンリーでしたが、ガイドのスタッフがバスの中で盛り上げていました。英語は分からなかったのですがパフォーマンスはボディーランゲージで気軽に楽しめました。
ルアウの内容は、珍しく、また、様々なアクティビティが楽しめます。そして素晴らしかったのが風景。当日は晴れていて、夕日と海岸線がハワイって感じでした。
スタッフの対応が、慣れなのか、とても良いという感じはしませんでした。サービル業なので、笑顔とかがあればもっと良かったですね。
デラックス・ディナーパッケージ（VIPロイヤルボックス席）で会場後方でした。配膳などのサービスもありました。
料理は、ルアウメニューなので、まぁまぁ食べれましたが、口に合わない人もいるかもしれません。
日本人観光客も少なく、英語オンリーなので、異文化を楽しむには、コーブは面白いとおもいます。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort
The Second Time
Reviewed by: Russ Matthews
This was the second time that we had attended this event. The first time was in 2010 right after we got married on the beach.
This time, we brought another couple as told them just how great of an event that it would be and you would be sorry if you did not attend.
After the Luau, they both agreed that it was worth the time and money. The shops are great, the events are wonderful, the food is superb, and the show is fantastic.
I would recommend this Luau to whomever I see and/or states that they are going to Hawaii.
Last but surely not least, the lady (Bev) that was assigned to us for the evening was just the cherry on top of the Sunday. She needs to be praised for her wit, professionalism, her personality, and maybe even her dance (I would give her a 8.5).
May you continue to provide the, "Best Luau on the Island!"
Once again, "We will be back" and thank you.

A great time had by all
Reviewed by: Karen
I attended the Chief's luau with my husband, siblings/spouses, and my elderly parents. A great time was had by all....even got my parents (temporary) tattooed at the event! We enjoyed the pre-show activities and the food was delicious. Chief and his group of entertainers put on an excellent show. This was my first luau, but my siblings had been to others on previous visits and said Chief's luau was their favorite.

I was a little anxious about picking out a luau because of how long they all are. However, the Paradise Cove luau has lots of activities so you don't have to worry about getting bored.We got the basic package with no frills and there was plenty to enjoy. The drinks were great, the buffet was just wonderful, the dancers were amazing--it was my favorite event of our trip! I even got on the stage for the hula dance lesson!

The Best Luau
Reviewed by: Blaze Daniels
This was our first Luau and we are confident in saying that it is quite possibly the best Luau you could attend. It was very authentic and Chief Seilu put on a great show from the dancing to music to his corky comedy. The activities before the Luau and the show itself are a perfect experience for anyone visiting Oahu.

PPC Ambassador tour
Reviewed by: B&B
Were entertained by Walter on the road to the Center. Before arriving Walter "strongly" encouraged everyone to purchase the lunch buffet for an additional $15 The buffet was nothing spectacular.
As an "ambassador package group" we were herded around by Elvis. We started out as the first group but somehow ended by late for all the demonstrations. Elvis was in such a rush to get us in place that he provided very little in the way of cultural information. Supposedly the Ambassador group see only the "highlights". The Canoe pageant costumes were first class but the boats looked "tired". Somoa action was well done and very funny. Drumming show in Tonga really energized the audience.
The Luau dinner food was nothing to write home about.
The Pacific show was outstanding but could eliminate the pineapple delight - too much - too messy for such a large audience,,,left trash everywhere in theatre. At a minimum you should end intermission with going through the aisles with tr

The Luau is so much fun, they have some games, and you can ride a canoe, take pictures with some beautiful birds, and there are jewerly that you can buy. I love this purple earrings that I bought! The food is good, but the drinks are water down. I would defintely go again. Hey when your in Hawaii you gots to go to a Laua. Also our activity guy was cuzin Mo, and if you get him, he is sooo funny! He made our ride to the Luau(about 30mins or so)not boring at all. He was singing and making jokes and everything. So if you get him, your very LUCY!

A Lovely Event & Evening
Reviewed by: Leigh
1 - A very informative and interesting event
2 - A fantastic location for the event, with mountains and the sea in the back-drop
3 - Talented dancers!
4 - A hilarious chief who makes the entire crowd get involved and excited
5 - Decent food for a buffet, some unique Hawaiian dishes. Nothing too fancy. It's not about the food, much more about the experience overall.
It was our first time in Hawaii and our first and only luau. We are happy we went and experienced it on the 2nd night of our vacation. It is worth it to have the luau experience and great fun!
