伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「パラダイス・コーブ 」開放的なオーシャンフロントで本場の雰囲気を味わえるショーやサンセット鑑賞<現地集合可/コオリナ・リゾート内>

It's full of English. 英語だらけ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Overall, it was an English immersion experience. Of course, on the bus and even after arriving, we were the only Japanese group there.

Since we had to rely on the shuttle bus for transportation, it was really challenging to understand English.

There was a staff member on the shuttle bus who guided us. You need to remember the name of that staff member and the bus number for your seat at the venue, so it's essential to memorize that. In our case, Jackie was the staff member, and the bus number was 5.

We were quite unsure about when and where to gather for the return trip. In the end, after the show, everyone just got up from their seats and went shopping or wandered around, but it seemed we could return to the bus whenever we wanted. Since we were confused, we found Jackie, who was selling commemorative photos, asked her where the bus was, and managed to get back to the bus.

There were many anxieties, but the show was very impressive and really great. The food was delicious too. Now that I understand the flow of things from this experience, I would like to go again.

とにかく英語三昧でした。バスはもちろん、現地に着いてからも日本人は私たちグループだけでした。
バスでの送迎のため、勝手に行って勝手に帰ってくるというわけにはいかないので、英語のヒアリングをするのが本当に大変でした。

送迎のバスに担当者がいて、その人が案内してくれます。現地での席はその担当者の名前とバスの番号が必要になりますので、そこだけは必ず覚えておく必要があります。私たちのときは、ジャッキーが担当者で、バス番号は5番でした。

帰りの集合がいつなのか、どこなのか、とにかく手探りでした。結局ショーが終わったら、それぞれで適当に席を立ち、買い物をしたり、ブラブラしたりするようですが、もうバスに戻っていてもいいようです。私たちは、とにかく分からなかったので、記念写真を販売していたジャッキーを探しだし、バスの場所を聞き、バスに戻るとこができました。

不安はたくさんありましたが、ショーはとても迫力があり、すごくよかったです。ご飯もおいしかったです。今回の参加で、流れがわかったので、また行きたいと思います。

First luau

Reviewed by: Dena

This was our first luau that we've experienced and we're pretty happy w/Paradise Cove. The location is beautiful, the hosts and hostesses were very nice, and the activities were enjoyable. If only the activities could have lasted longer than the time they had allocated, it would have been better.

We loved the food and the show towards the end. The weather was perfect, and during the final show we saw a falling star. Perfect luau in paradise. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a great luau experience!

My family really enjoyed this activity. We sat right beside the stage and it was wonderful. The bus ride was my sons favorite part. He did not want to go and I had to make him. Now ,if you ask him what his favorite thing he did while in Hawaii he will tell you the Luau at Paradise Cove. My family enjoyed the authintic dancing and singing. I printed our coupon/voucher off line and it all worked out great.

Wonderful Experience

Reviewed by: LeBlanc

I would recommend that anyone at any age range see a luau while visiting Hawaii. Paradise Cove was awesome. The entertainment was magnificant, the staff was very nice, my waiter was shy and asked for his picture not to be posted on the internet :) They feed you a lot of food. VIP is the way to gp because you stay seated, your food is served to you and for a hot afternoon you are under a cover with fans. You have a wonderful sunset view. Just GOOD LUCK if it rains!!

Relaxing, Beautiful, and Fun

Reviewed by: Krystle

First of all, I highly recommend the v.i.p box. I was kind of expecting an individual booth, but it’s actually an area under a shed seating about 30-40 people (8 people a table). Even though you’re sitting with other people, v.i.p beats getting up to stand in line for food. There would be a staff member serving you, also most important is the weather. A staff member I talked to mentioned that if it happens to rain, the only people that would be covered are people in v.i.p. If it does rain, there would be security guards blocking the v.i.p booth, if anyone with a standard seat tries to enter.

The activities are delightful, the gift shops are great, and I must have spent about 100-130 dollars just on souvenirs. The picture taken of us is beautiful. Going as a couple, 6 drink coupons each were plenty. When you enter you will receive a complimentary drink, so we actually had extra coupons by the end of the. The staffs are nice, helpful, and funny. It was a great luau………..

The Paradise Cove Luau was a very fun experience and it is great for families since they have activities you can participate in. The food was very delicious, I however would not recommend paying the extra for the Deluxe package with table service and 6 standard drink coupons. Table service was very slow, people who did the buffett had food way before we did AND there were other things on the buffett that table service guests did not receive.

Not for single people.

Reviewed by: Scott Perkins

Two things were very prominent on this excursion.

1) It seemed very focussed on couples. Lots of references for people celebrating engagements, weddings & anniversaries. There was also a special song played so couples could dance together.

2) There were too many add-ons where it seemed really obvious they were trying to get more money out of you ($15 to have your picture taken with some tropical birds for example and also the bar staff trying to talk you into getting the drinks that your free coupon doesn't quite cover). Some of the extra activites were pretty lame and the staff didn't really seemed interested in even pretending to be enthused about being there.

The actual show was pretty good, although it didn't really go on that long. I was at a VIP table and the waiter hovered around and couldn't take your plate so as to start the next course quick enough. No offer of if you would like some more or not despite the fact it was "all you can eat".

Great Luau

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was the second luau that I've attended...it was very good and comparable to the first...the events going on in addition to the luau were an added bonus. Highly recommend upgrading it as we did, we were served our food instead of standing in line, we received a photo that they took at the beginning and the drinks were top of the line. We had front row seating! Made it SO much better for taking photos and viewing the performers! SO glad we upgraded it...worth the extra money :)

Loved the Luau!

Reviewed by: M & B

Several years ago, I went to a Hawaiian Luau...we ate dinner and watched a show...it was alright. PARADISE COVE LUAU was so much more! I loved it! Before dinner, there were several activities we could enjoy, as we drank our "welcome drink" or used our coupons to have some additional pre-dinner drinks. Activities included: canoe rides, spear-throwing, tatooing, flowered headband/bracelet making, poi practice, and dance lessons. The beach and sunset was beautiful. Negatives: Dinner was okay...my boyfriend liked it, but I'm a little more picky... Some (most) of the drinks required more than just a drink coupon (ie. "one coupon plus $3)...kind of misleading.
Overall, I totally recommend this Luau experience!

We had purchased the deluxe package. Our seats were in front of the stage and we had meal service instead of having to go through the buffet line. There were plenty of activities to do prior to the show. The show was great with the fire show being the best. The meal was ok not great. Overall we had a great time and would go back.

Reviewed by: akiko3588

At 4:00 PM, a bus will pick us up at the hotel. Once we get on... it's all Westerners. Everything is in English. The guide is desperately trying to lift the mood with jokes and gestures, making an effort to help everyone get to know each other. Since travel time is limited, and no one wants to waste it, I’ll be clear: if you don’t understand English, the jokes and conversations with your neighbors on the bus might feel dull, and you could feel uncomfortable until the end. Once we arrive, we’ll be ushered inside, where various events await. You don’t need to understand English to participate in those.

For meals, you’ll be sharing a table with people you don’t know, so English conversation will be necessary. Most attendees are from the mainland, so I think English is essential. This experience is suited for those who see chatting with neighbors as part of the fun. The dance and performances are wonderful, and if you’re brave enough, you can even go up on stage. There’s also a couple's dance time. If you’re someone who wants to enjoy without hesitation, you can have fun even if you don’t understand the language. On the return bus, the guide shares entertaining stories, so you won’t be able to sleep. (laughs) Casual attire is fine. I participated with my family, and we were the only Japanese among about 500 people, and since I was the only one who understood English, I translated everything for my family. They said they had a great time because I interpreted for them. Personally, I found this tour to be extremely enjoyable; this is true entertainment.

16:00にホテルにバスが迎えにきてくれます。
乗り込むと・・・西洋人ばかり。すべて英語です。バスの中でガイドさんが気分を盛り上げようと必死にジョークやジェスチャー、初めてあった人と仲良くなるように気を配ってくれます。旅行の時間は限られていて、無駄にしたくないのは誰もの願なのではっきり言いますが、英語が分からないとジョークもバスの中の隣人との会話もつまらないので、最後まで居心地悪く感じるかも。つくとすぐに中に通され、いろいろなイベントが待っています。それに参加するには英語が分からなくても大丈夫。
食事は知らない方々と席をともにするため、また英会話が必要。本土から来ている方がほとんどですので、英語は必須だと思います。隣人の方とのおしゃべりも楽しみの一つと考えられる方に向いています。ダンスやパフォーマンスは素晴らしく、勇気があればステージに上がることもできます。カップルのダンスタイムもあります。物おじしないでどんどん楽しもうという元気のある方なら言葉が分からなくても楽しめます。帰りのバスもガイドさんが楽しいお話を聞かせてくれ、寝かせてくれません。(笑)ラフな格好でOKです。私は家族と参加しましたが日本人は500人ほどの中でわれわれだけでしたし、英語も私しか分かりませんので、すべて家族に通訳しました。通訳したので家族は楽しかったといっています。私個人的にもこのツアーは非常に楽しく、これぞエンターテイメントだと思いました。
