Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Luau

Reviewed by: Kathleen

We had never been to a luau so we had nothing to compare this to. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

The entertainment and activities before and after the meal were great, fun and appropriate for all age groups.

The taste and quality of food was good. The amount was plentiful. The alcoholic beverages that came with the VIP ticket was plentiful, although not very strong.

We bought the VIP package so that we wouldn't have to stand in line for the buffet. We went at a slow time in February (about 350 people) so it wasn't bad, but I would definitely recommend the VIP package in the peak season.

The lei and photos were very nice.

The fun didn't stop when we left the luau. The Paradise Cove tour guide sent to pick us up was fantastic. In the way to the luau we got to know the other people on our bus. We became a family of "cousins." On the way back we had music and humor based on our shared experiences. Our tour guide even played his ukulele and serenaded us. I didn't want to get off

Reviewed by: YSK

It was quite interesting!! We participated as a couple, and in Hawaii, which has a lot of Japanese people, I finally felt like I was overseas! Among the tour participants, I noticed that there were only a handful of Japanese people, and we communicated in English from start to finish! I think it's a must for those who can speak English, want to speak, are practicing, or want to immerse themselves in the feeling of being abroad!! The food was delicious, and as everyone has mentioned, the content was very fulfilling, but what I found particularly interesting was the bus guide's stories during the bus rides☆ Please join and experience it for yourself!

かなり面白かったです！！　カップルで参加したのですが、日本人の多いハワイで、やっと海外に来た気分になりました！　ツアー客の中で見たところ日本人はおよそ片手で数えられる人数しかおらず、最初から最後までずっと英語でのコミュニケーションでした！　英語が話せる人、話したい人、練習中の人、海外に来た気分に浸りたい人は必見だと思います！！　　料理も美味しく、内容も皆さんが書いておられるようにとても充実したものですが、その中でも特に面白かったのは、行き帰りのバスの中での『バスガイドさんの話』でした☆　　ぜひ、参加して体験してみてください！

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Great Experience - Thank you!

Reviewed by: Mr. John Walters

It was my first time visiting Hawaii, and I took my family to the Royal Celebration. We had a great time as a family learning, and experiencing the Hawaiian culture. It was a very unique and quiet interesting. The food was beyond my expectations, so so delicious, and the outdoor venue is perfect to watch the Waikiki Sunset, view of Diamond Head, and to watch some waves coming in to shore. Beautiful pink hotel and we can't wait to do it again in our next visit to Hawaii. It was definitely a different and once in a lifetime experience. It is not your typical Luau, this is royalty style celebration, and we loved every minute of it.

Thank you for the great experience!

The Laua is a special Hawaiian treat. It is an event that everyone should experience for the feel of the islands. The personnel was terrific, and met the quality standards we expected. The performers after dinner were Frist Class. They should be visited by many for just the pure ability of their craft. The women were beautiful, and very nice afterward to have photos etc. We have attended before and the quality is the best.

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

On October 11th, two women in their 50s who couldn't speak English participated. Most of the participants were American, and there were only eight Japanese people, including us. The male guide kept the atmosphere lively on the bus (all in English). I didn't understand everything, but it was bright and fun. When we arrived at the location, we received a mai tai and a shell lei, and we took some great commemorative photos. They were selling them for $15 on the way back. Before the show started, we experienced activities like spear throwing, a bowling-like game with stones and wood, and canoeing. Everything was free. There were also people making leis. The sunset was magnificent, and while I was taking photos, the show began with the sound of a conch shell. The show started on the beach and then moved to a circular stage. This show is so wonderful that you shouldn't miss it... We moved to the table for the final meal and watched the show while enjoying a buffet. It was truly amazing and very satisfying. The return bus ride was also fun, making us feel like we were in America. Both of us were still thrilled even after we got back to the hotel.

10/11に英語が喋れない５０代女子二人で参加しました。参加者の大半がアメリカ人で日本人は私たちを入れって８名でした。男のガイドさんがバスの中を盛り上げ（全て英語）意味は良くわかりませんが、明るくて楽しかったです。現地に着くとマイタイと貝のれいを貰い記念写真をパッチリ、帰りに１５ドルで販売しています。ショウが始まるまで、槍投げ・石と木のボーリングの様なもの・カヌーを体験しました。全て無料です。レイ作りをしている方もいました。サンセットが素晴らしく写真を撮っていたら、ほら貝の音でショウが始まりました。ショウは最初ビーチから始まり、次は円形になった舞台に移ります。このショウが素晴らしいので見逃さないように・・・最後の食事をするテーブルへ移動し、バイキングを食べながらショウを観ます。とても素晴らしく満足できました。帰りのバスもアメリカに来たんだなと思える盛り上がりで楽しかったです。二人ともホテルに着いてからも感激冷め遣らずでした。

Seating began a traditional ‘Oli (prayer) in the hall of the Royal Hawaiian. It was nice to know Hawaiians stick with protocol nowadays. One could almost feel as if being present at a Royal ball, after all, that is exactly what this Hotel was built for in the first place; which made the atmosphere quite unique.

As you approach the lawn and with your first drink you are invited to spooned portions of fresh Ahi Poke, Kalua Pig, Lomi Salmon, and Poi. Story-teller Joe starts by introducing himself and went directly into explaining what ingredients each spoon held and how it applied to Hawaiian post-western contact life. At the same time others from the hula halau demonstrated how kapa was made, inks were produced and designs printed. Ropes were intertwined by hand and foot and other chores were explained by docent-like-ladies-in-waiting. The Pupu platter was my favorite with the skewered chicken, crab cakes, and Butterfish that melted in your mouth.

This is a MUST do for EVERYONE. We did the VIP box at the back and had the best seats in the place. The stage is still pretty close from the box and it is raised up at the same level as the VIP box so you see over top of everyone else who is in the general seating area. The VIP treatment really makes the whole experience so much better you get 2 pictures taken and don't have to wait in line ups. I couldn't imagine waiting in the long line that formed for the buffet!! There were lots of booths and activities before the dinner and show started we wandered around and watched some of the acts and tried the games they had set up, We walked out to the beach and the rocks which had an amazing view. It was just such a good time, perfect for the first night or two in Hawaii to get you in the "Hawaiian" mood!!! If you are going to do this activity do the VIP, you'll be happy you did :) The show was really good. Kids will love this but if you are a couple it is quite romantic!!

Enjoy the traditional luau! 伝統ルアウを堪能！

Reviewed by: Lei

On September 1st, I participated in the Standard plan.

As others have shared in their experiences, stepping onto the large welcoming bus felt like entering another world! We were the only Japanese people, with most of the group coming from the mainland United States, along with some guests from Australia and Russia. The guide understood a bit of Japanese, but since all the talks during the ride, including tour notes, were in English, it might not be suitable for those who don't understand English at all.

Paradise Cove is located to the west of Waikiki, beyond the airport and Pearl Harbor, and since the bus ride is long, I recommend bringing a light jacket if you're sensitive to the air conditioning.

Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a welcome drink (ID is required for alcohol) and received shell leis for a commemorative photo. If you like the photo, you can purchase it on the way back. I think it was around $15.

We were guided to our dining seats, and after writing our names on the sticker on the table to secure our spots, we had free time. The park offered various activities and crafts, so we spent our time freely playing a game similar to javelin called Ooihe and getting Polynesian art tattoos (which wash off) until it was time for dinner.

The meal was a Hawaiian luau buffet, and the lomi lomi salmon and kalua pig were especially delicious. The plan included two drink tickets, which allowed us to exchange them for cocktails from a designated menu.

A point to note is to confirm your bus number and return time carefully, and as mentioned in the notes, a separate tip payment is required. This is a custom that may not be familiar in Japan, so it's easy to forget, but even though the tour fee has been paid, a small tip is appreciated when receiving crafts or drinks.

The show performed on the outdoor stage was spectacular! Along with hula and live music, the fire performance after a 15-minute break was definitely worth seeing. The beautiful sunset we unexpectedly witnessed added to the experience, making it a wonderful memory.

9月1日、スタンダードのプランに参加してきました。

他の方の体験談通り、お迎えの大型バスに乗り込むとそこは別世界！日本人は私達のみでアメリカ本土からが大半、他にオーストラリアやロシアからいらした方もいました。ガイドさんは日本語も少しわかる方でしたが、ツアーの注意点も含め車中でのトークは全て英語のため、英語が全くわからないという人には不向きかもしれません。

パラダイス・コーブはワイキキからハイウェイをひたすら西へ、空港を越えパール・ハーバーも越えた所にあり、バスの乗車時間が長いのでエアコンの効きすぎが気になる方は上着が1枚あるといいと思います。

到着するとウェルカム・ドリンク（アルコールはIDの提示が必要です）で歓迎され、貝殻のレイを首にかけてもらって記念撮影。この写真は、気に入れば帰りに購入することができました。15ドル位だったかな？？

お食事の席まで案内され、席を確保するためテーブルに貼られたシールに名前を書いたらそこからはフリータイム。パーク内は様々なアクティビティやクラフトなどが体験できるようになっていたので、私達はオオイヘというヤリ投げのようなゲームや、ポリネシアン・アートのタトゥー（洗えば落ちるもの）をしてもらったりしてお食事までの時間を自由に過ごしました。

お食事はハワイアン・ルアウ・ビュッフェで、特にロミロミ・サーモンとカルア・ピッグが美味しかったです。今回のプランにはドリンクチケットが2枚含まれていたので、決められたメニューの中からカクテルと交換することができました。

注意点としては、自分のバス番号と帰りの時間をしっかり確認しておくことと、備考欄にもある通り別途チップの支払いが必要ということです。クラフトやドリンクをサーブしてもらった時など、日本には馴染みのない習慣なので忘れがちですが、ツアー代金は支払済みといえども気持ち程度のチップは必要です。

野外ステージで行われるショーは圧巻！です。フラや生演奏はもちろん、15分程の休憩後の炎を使ったパフォーマンスは一見の価値ありだと思います。思いがけず見ることができた綺麗なサンセットもプラスとなり、いい思い出になりました。

This is the real luau! これぞ本物のルアウ！

Reviewed by: soro

The luau at Paradise Cove is amazing, which is surprising considering how little it is advertised in tourist information in Japan! It's a fantastic tour that can't be summed up in just one word. An American from the mainland boasted, "You have to see this when you come to Hawaii. It's absolutely unmissable!" It seems to be quite famous in the U.S., and there were people who took vacations just to experience it.

Once you get on the bus, the guide is full of energy, and the tour begins in an exciting atmosphere.

First of all, the location is fundamentally different from the mock luaus held around hotels. The venue is set in a resort area, making it feel like a genuine festival (luau). Participating in various events while watching the sunset over the ocean is a delightful part of the luau experience.

However, if I had to point out one downside from a Japanese perspective, it might be the question of whether the food is suitable for a dinner show. Well, the buffet-style Hawaiian cuisine... might be a bit too bland. Aside from top-tier hotel buffets, this is probably the norm.

But once the lights go down and darkness falls, it becomes truly spectacular! As the spotlight shines and the intense flames dance, the show begins with a mix of enchanting hula performances that drive toward the climax. The excitement and emotion are so overwhelming that the taste of the food fades away.

I was impressed by the service, such as when a shy girl got the chance to go on stage... Truly, this is Hawaii's No. 1 luau! What I think about now that I'm in Hawaii is, "This is something you absolutely can't miss!"

どういう訳か…日本で目にする観光案内にはあまり宣伝されていないのが不思議なくらい、パラダイス・コーブのルアウは最高です！
一言では言い表せないファンタスティックなツアーです。
「ハワイに来たら必ず観るのさ。絶対に外せないネ！」とメインランドからきたアメリカ人が豪語してましたが、米国では相当に有名らしく、これが楽しみで休暇をとって来たという方もいらっしゃいました。
バスに乗り込めば、もうガイドはノリノリ。エキサイティングな雰囲気に包まれてツアーが始まります。

先ず、ホテル周辺で開催される模擬的なルアウとは根本的なロケーションが違い過ぎます。リゾート地に会場を設け、地に着いたお祭り（ルアウ）そのものからして本物だと実感させられます。
海に沈み行く夕日を眺めながら、会場内にある数々のイベントに参加するのもルアウの楽しいひと時です。
ただ一つ、日本人からの難点を挙げるとすれば、ディナーショーにふさわしい料理か？という不満はあるかも知れません。
まあ、ハワイ料理のビッフェスタイル…大味のオンパレードは仕方ないかも。一流ホテルのビッフェを除けば大抵はこんなモノでしょうかね。
しかし、一旦照明が落ちて漆黒を迎えてからが圧巻です！
スポットライトが射し込み、強烈な炎の舞で一気に幕が開くと、妖艶優美なフラとが入り乱れてクライマックスへ向けて延々とドライブが続きます。
もう料理の味など吹っ飛ぶほどの興奮と感動を堪能するのです。
シャイな娘が舞台に上がる機会をいただけたり…客へのサービスも演出された、さすがハワイNo.1のルアウだな！と感銘した次第。
ハワイに来て今想う事は、「これだけは外せない」です！

Reviewed by: なんきんまま

I participated with my daughter, who is in the second year of junior high school. I knew this tour would be quite an adventure for Japanese people, but it exceeded my expectations as a native tour. On the large bus, we were the only Japanese, and after the guide mentioned that they didn't understand Japanese, there was not a single word of Japanese for the entire 7 hours. I was quite confident in my English skills, but the rapid-fire talking on the bus, the American jokes, and the translations couldn't keep up. Moreover, the guide encouraged a sense of camaraderie by suggesting handshakes and shoulder rubs with our neighbors to liven up the party (luau)! This was also true at the venue, where we sat at tables by bus, making communication essential. It was challenging in many ways, but it was a fresh Hawaiian show even for me, who has been to Hawaii five times. As someone else wrote, the important thing is to remember your bus number and return time (around 9:30). Once you arrive, there are many free activities until meal time, so participate actively! There are shows like climbing palm trees and net fishing signaled by the conch shell, so be sure to check those out! It's important to participate actively. The Polynesian Cultural Center explains the history and differences of the islands clearly, but this tour was all about participation centered around dance, so they can't be compared. It was a tour that made me truly feel the American spirit of enjoying the moment. If you can think, "It's okay if I don't understand English," it becomes easier. It might be better to have a larger group to enjoy together!

中2の娘と二人で参加、かなり日本人には冒険のツアーということは知っていたが聞きしに勝るネイティブツアー。大型バスの中で日本人は私たち母娘のみ、ガイドに日本語わかりません、と一言前置きされてから7時間まったく一言も日本語なし。英語力にはかなり自信ありでしたが行き返りのバスでの弾丸のようなしゃべり、アメリカンジョーク、トランスレートは追い付きません、しかもお隣さんや後前さんで握手や肩もみなんていう仲間意識をあおってパーティー(ルアウ）を盛り上げよう！的なガイドからの要請もある！現地でも然り、バスごとにテーブルにつき盛り上がるのでコミュニケーション必須かも。色々大変だけどハワイ5回目の私にも新鮮なハワイアンショーでした。誰かが書いてくれたとおり大事なのは、自分のバスナンバーと帰り時間（９：３０ごろでした）を忘れないこと。現地に着いたら食事までの時間はかずかずのアクチビティーがタダなのでどんどん参加すること、ホラ貝の合図でヤシの木のぼりや地引網漁などのショーがあるのでそちらに行ってみること！積極的に参加することが大切です。ポリネシアン文化センターは島々の歴史やその違いがわかりやすく説明される催しですがこちらは踊りを中心に全部が参加型、比較はできません。アメリカ人のその場を心から楽しむ精神を痛感するツアーでした。英語わからなくてもいーやーと思えればラク、できれば大人数のほうがうちわで盛り上がれるのでいいかも！

What we imagined a luau to be!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My husband and I were first time visitors to Hawaii and definitely wanted to attend a luau. After checking out all the reviews several times, we decided on this one. We opted for the deluxe dinner package w/ VIP seating and it was well worth it. The only downside to the whole trip was that the bus was late leaving the pickup point (seems to be a regular problem with them for some reason but you quickly learn the meaning of "Hawaii time") so we had less time to check out the grounds but a great time anyway. Cousin Kahale was quite entertaining on the bus and had explained everything to us by the time we got there. Once we arrived we received our leis and were whisked away to begin our VIP treatment. We had a personal escort take us inside, get our complimentary photos taken at the entrance and given a personal tour of the grounds and where to find everything. I would definitely recommend bringing several bucks extra in cash if you're like me and love getting the full experience,

Memories of Hawaii ハワイの思い出

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I think this luau show is special. For those who want to spend a memorable Hawaiian night and enjoy the charm of the magnificent dances and spiritual Hawaiian hula, it will surely be a lifelong memory. The location is also fantastic; you can enjoy hula while being tickled by the pleasant sea breeze near the beach, listening to the sound of the waves, and watching the beautiful sunset glowing in vibrant orange.

What makes this show special is its location and atmosphere. You can't experience this in the middle of Waikiki. While being on Oahu, it has a neighborly vibe, and people from the mainland flock to participate in this show, which is said to be the most popular in Waikiki.

I really enjoyed conversing with a family from San Francisco that I met there. I will definitely participate again.

このルアウショーは特別だと思います。特別なハワイアンの夜の思い出を過ごしたい方、華麗な踊りとスピリチュアルなハワイアン・フラの魅力を堪能されたい方、一生の思い出に残すこと間違いなしです。ロケーションも、オーシャンフロント、鮮やかなオレンジ色に輝くきれいなサンセットを見ながら、波の音が聞こえるビーチのそばで、心地よい潮風にくすぐられ、フラを楽しむことができます。

　このショーのスペシャルなところは、そのロケーションと雰囲気です。ワイキキの街中では絶対に味わえません。オアフに居ながらネイバーの雰囲気があり、本土の人もこぞってこのショーへ参加し、ワイキキの中では一番人気だそうです。

　一緒になったサンフランシスコから来たという家族と会話も楽しむことが出来て本当に良かったです。また絶対参加します。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Paradise Cove Luau

Reviewed by: JFisher

This was our first Luau and we enjoyed it immensely. Our guide, Jackie, kept the whole group entertained during the bus ride to the luau.
We enjoyed all of the pre-meal activites, and thought mthe food was very good. The after dinner show was beyond our expectations.
