Very nice performance
Reviewed by: Jenna
Overall very nice experience.
Food was better than anticipated and show was funny and very informative.
It is well organized as well.
A bit far and remote however was worth it and would highly recommend.

Chief’s luau
Reviewed by: Gracie Cantu
Enjoyed the show more than anything. The food was okay. Noodles and bread were cold. Also the drink menu was limited. Enjoyed the bus ride there and even more on the way back as our bus driver dropo us of right in front of our hotel. The venue was also shared by a water park which in my opinion was a lot little tacky

Toa Luau Authentic Polynesian Dinner Show & Admission to Waimea Valley [5:00 PM]
Cultural Experience
Reviewed by: K. C.
Great show, solid food, mixed drinks good, interactive displays fun. We got the gold package which was nice, but silver would have been almost as good. It's awesome that the botanical garden tickets were included with the show tickets. Get there early to get parking otherwise it fills up fast. The entertainers put in a lot of effort and they have some great skills.

Family fun.
Reviewed by: David
We had a wonderful time. Great family entertainment. The food was good too. It was top notch entertainment with the local feel. Hawaii should be proud of the information given for the Polynesian culture. It was very enlightening and entertaining. I'd recommend this luau to anyone who is visiting the island. Please be kind to the staff, they are stars too. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

日本語対応はほぼありません。
家族旅行で子連れで参加しましたが、英語が理解できないので、子供もあきてしまいました。英語ができない場合はおすすめしません。
英語で鑑賞したい、どうしてもここのダンスをみたいという希望でなければ、おすすめしません。
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに泊まっており、同じくらいの値段でショーがあったので、そちらでみたら移動時間も省けたのでと後悔しました。

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing
Cheif's is the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!
Reviewed by: Natalie Gutierrez
Cheif's Luau is a MUST DO!!! This was our favorite thing we did on our entire trip to Hawaii. If possible, pay for transportation included. The ride to the luau was fun and informative - it was like a mini tour because the guide taught us some Hawaiian words, fun facts, gavw us cultural insights, and even made jokes! This was literally the best thing ever! This is perfect for everyone! Kid friendly, but also perfect for couples and families alike. In fact, the Luau was so great that I think mostly adults would appreciate all the effort made by Cheif and Tamatoa! Best fire show also!! 10/10

Chief's Luau
Reviewed by: Tim and Pam
Enjoyed the show. The entertainment was very good. We paid to be picked up. I am so glad we made that decision. Traffic was bad but our driver Johnny handled it like a pro. Greg checked us in and then narrated the trip. He had a great sense of humor and made the ride very enjoyable. The chief also had a great sense of humor and made the stories very interesting. We were also surprised with flowers for our anniversary. They were all very courteous and made you feel like part of the family. We will definitely go again if we are ever back in Hawaii.

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「チーフズルアウ」豪華ビュッフェディナーと元世界チャンピオンのファイヤーダンスが圧巻のショー＜ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ内＞
ルアウの踊りは圧倒的でした
Reviewed by: 旅はみちづれ
6/4（日）のショーを前日の夜、スマートフォンで予約して参加しました。
ルアウの踊りは圧倒的でした。特に、火の舞は、迫力があり、息をのむほど。
フラダンスもありで、盛沢山のショーを楽しみました。リーダーのトークも軽妙洒脱で、皆を乗せるのがうまく、長い時間を飽きさせない人でした。
妻も私もショー自体にはとても満足しましたが、夕ご飯はもう少し改善してほしいところです。ただ、オアフ島では、ホテルのフラダンス・ディナーショーでもなければ、食べ物に期待してはいけないのだろうとも思います。メニューに書いてあった料理が確かにありましたが、ハワイ特有の白いプラケースに各自が取るスタイルで（日本のホテルのバイキング／ブッフェスタイルの朝食会場で列を作って歩きながら料理をとるパターン）、料理の品質・味は、期待しない方が良いです。あくまでも、ショーがメインで、夕ご飯は付け足し程度に考えてください。

Toa Luau Authentic Polynesian Dinner Show & Admission to Waimea Valley [5:00 PM]
Glad we chose this luau
Reviewed by: LJT
We chose this luau because of the beautiful setting in the Waimea Valley. Would recommend getting to the North Shore early in the day, spend some time at Waimea Bay then tour the Park and Falls before the luau. Much better to experience this cultural experience in such a stunning, natural setting.We had our teenage son and daugher with us and our mother and everyone had a great time. The family and staff work hard, wearing a variety of hats throughout the evening-serving dinner, running the lawn activities, and of course performing a large variety of authentic dances and music. The host is genuine and the food was very good. Everything tastes authentic and high quality. The whole operation was enjoyable, I even enjoyed the lawn activities more than I expected. We reviewed many luaus on Oahu and are very glad we chose this one.
Aloha LJT and mahalo for taking the time to write us this review and for sharing your experience at the luau. Mahalo for the recommendation, we appreciate it! We're glad that you enjoyed your time at the luau and had fun exploring the gardens and the waterfall. Hope we'd see you again the next time you're on the island! Mahalo nui loa!

Hilarious and fun luau!
Reviewed by: Texas
The fun really starts when you get on the nice air conditioned bus. Our host on the bus was hilarious all the way to our destination. The show is in a wetnwild but honestly I forgot about half way to the beginning of the show. The food was good and the dancers were better. The chief was also a funny man and although you do get this amazing entertainment, you also get a little bit of history of the people of the islands. Overall it was a great show. We even got a souvenir

Best Lua in Honolulu
Reviewed by: Devy
Best Lua and fire show in HNL!! We’ve been to many Lua, this show by far is the best. Live action performances are colorful, full of history and beautiful ensembles. We can feel the energy on stage and story telling come to life through dances movements, colorful wardrobes, live music/singing and magical fire show.
The checkin process was easy and parking was smooth. The venue is smaller than them other Lua we’ve been, but we like the intimacy in a smaller show.

Aloha Kai Sea Life Park Luau - Oceanfront Polynesian Dinner Show & Fire Dance
Fantastic evening! Great Oahu Luau!
Reviewed by: Julie_MC
What a fantastic evening we had at Aloha Kai Luau! The stunning venue located on the lawn area of Sea Life Park boasts breathtaking views of the mountains and ocean overlooking Makapuu Beach - it's truly something special. This intimate luau experience is perfect for those who want to avoid the crowds of other shows in Oahu. Families with little ones will love the pre-show cultural activities that are both fun and educational.
The venue is situated on the lush lawn area of Sea Life Park and offers stunning views of both mountains and the ocean overlooking Makapuu Beach. The drive itself is an adventure, passing by breathtaking sights on the way. While the seating arrangement could be improved slightly for a more comfortable experience, every seat offers a great view of the show.
Dinner was delicious with plenty of options for everyone. The bar offers beers, wine, seltzers, and mai tai cocktails and there are two premium cocktails options as well.
The show is a great experience and the dancers are incredibly talented. The torch ceremony and fire knife show were my personal favorites. Overall, this is an evening not to be missed!
