Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Just ok...

Reviewed by: Not my first luau...

The overall experience was a little cheesy...For the good news--I give 5 stars for the dancing during the main hula show--the dance crew were truly amazing and very athletic! The food was tasty but the overall presentation reminded me of the buffet line at a high school cafeteria. And there was no coconut cake which was very disappointing! The M.C. For the entertainment was straight off the Love Boat...he made me chuckle but not in a good way! The pre dinner activities went on for way too long, and I felt like I was in a cattle line being herded from one presentation to another. I would have liked to come just for the dinner and show, but then you risk being assigned a bad seat as it was first-come-first-seated. The property was gorgeous with spectacular views of the sunset. Maybe if this was my first luau I would have enjoyed it more, but I left feeling kind of...meh...

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「アハアイナ」ワイキキ中心！ダイアモンドヘッドを望む絶景オーシャン・フロントでのディナーショー＜ロイヤル・ハワイアン内＞

A powerful show. 迫力あるショー

Reviewed by: aya

Since the premium seats were fully booked, I reserved standard seats. I arrived at the hotel just after 4:30 and lined up. Our seats were at the end of the second row from the front. The stage was positioned high, so it wasn't difficult to see. The male fire dance was impressive, and the female hula dance was very vibrant. I was able to enjoy a luxurious time with an ocean view backdrop.

プレミアム席が満席だったので、スタンダード席で予約しました。4時半すぎにホテルに行き、並びました。席は前から2列目の端でした。ステージが、高い位置にあるので、見にくいことはなかったです。男性のファイヤーダンスは、迫力がありました。女性のフラダンスもとても華やかでした。オーシャンビューバックに贅沢な時間を過ごせました。

The day starts off a bit slow, as the activities are very basic, and the area isn't very big. Where this excursion shines is the dinner and show. The dinner buffet was delicious, and the show was phenomenal, and well worth the price of admission.

It was good. 良かったです

Reviewed by: 毎年ハワイ

I often stay at Hilton Hawaiian Village, but I had never seen a luau before and experienced it for the first time. The meal was a buffet with a variety of dishes, and it was delicious and filling. The luau show was also great.

There is a recommendation to arrive 10 minutes early, but it takes about 40 minutes from the start of admission to completion, and since it’s still sunny at that time, if you go too early, it can be hot and the wait time is long. I felt there was no need to rush.

ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジにはよく泊まるのですが
ルアウは見たことがなく、初めて体験しました。
食事はビュッフェ形式でいろいろなメニューがあり
おいしくお腹いっぱいになりました。

入場を開始してから完了するまで40分ぐらいかかり、
まだ日も照っている時間なので早く行くと暑くて待ち時間が長いです。
急いで行く必要はないと思いました。

Overall, we really enjoyed the Luau. The arts and crafts, demonstrations, food, and show were all excellent. Cons were that there were a lot of long lines, seating was crammed up in tiny plastic chairs, and you had to get your own beverage in tiny cups with the choice of water, tea, or coffee which ran out.

I chose a standard seat, but since I arrived early, I was able to sit in the front row even with a standard ticket. The show was spectacular and very enjoyable. The stage is surrounded by tables in a U-shape, so no matter where you sit, you can enjoy the dancing from all angles.

The food looks delicious, but don't expect too much from it. (laughs) It was mentioned that you would receive a shell lei, but standard seats don't get anything. Only gold and diamond seats receive that.

スタンダード席にしましたが、早めに行ったのでスタンダードでも前方に一番近い席に座れました。ショーは圧巻でとても楽しかったです。ステージをこの字型に囲ってテーブルがあり、どの席に座っても四方を向いてダンスしてくれるので横側でも楽しめます。
美味しそうに見えますが、料理は期待しないで下さい。笑

Hilton Waikiki Starlight Luau with Fire Dancers, Hula Show & Dinner Buffet

Good show!

Reviewed by: VScott

This was our first luau and we both enjoyed it.

Husband and I chose the Golden Circle package. We were given leis when we arrived, seated next to the stage, and were among the first to go up to the buffet.

The buffet was typical buffet foods with some Hawaiian additions. It was nie to taste new flavors but, the meats were overcooked and dry. Typical steam tray buffet. There were some nice vegetable options and the desserts were good. I don't recommend the poi. Try it somewere else.

The show takes the guests on a tour of the Polynesian islands through dance. The dancers play to all 3 sides of the seating so everyone gets a good show. Woo! The dancers were great. The musicians were great. The emcee was great. Yes, we enjoyed the show. I was mesmerized by the skill of the dancers.

My biggest complaint is the seating. We were very cramped at the tables. The chairs are uncushioned wood and tightly packed. It kinda reminded me of a wedding-type seating.

This was such an awesome afternoon/evening! Started off with a great tour bus hostess, really funny lady, and when we got to the beautiful Paradise Cove locations we were greeted with Mai Tai's. From there we were shown how to do a Hula dance, watched a ripped as guy climb like a monkey up a coconut palm, how to traditionally fish and cook the pig. There was an awesome buffet meal whilst we were treated to all different styles of Polynesian dances and songs. Drink prices were cheap for amazing cocktails, and overall such a lovely evening.

Very nice dinner and impressive show

Reviewed by: Liz

The dinner and luau experience at Paradise Cove were very nice. Our bus guide, Rich, was funny and helpful.

When we arrived we were given a mai tai/alcohol free mai tai, a flower lei if you bought the orchid or deluxe package (shell necklace if not), and they take a photo. Then you go in and shop or do activities. We got "Polynesia tattoos", had flower headbands made, held parrots, and threw spears. The lines for the activities take ages.

Unbeknownst to me, the stands that sell all the interesting items close when dinner starts, so if you want to use your merchandise card on something other than alcohol or cheap junk in the Marketplace shop then make sure you do you shopping before dinner starts. Children's merchandise cards can't be used on alcohol. This part was the only downside.

It was amazing! 最高でした！

Reviewed by: クミコ先生

It was a very American tour where the entertainment started already on the bus. The bus guide was amazing! The pre-show entertainment was fun, with a sense of unity amidst the freedom. If you don't miss the signal from the conch shell, you can keep up with the flow. But it's okay if you fall behind! Everyone spends their time as they like, and that sense of freedom is very pleasant.

It's more enjoyable if you can speak English, but if you want to experience American entertainment with your body, you don't need to worry about the language! I recommend this for those who want to have an experience a bit different from a typical Japanese group tour!

The deluxe dinner course is worth the money. The meal is served to you, and you also receive souvenirs and a $24 gift card. We wore yukatas! Since everyone was dressed nicely, there was no need to feel embarrassed. It gets chilly at night, so it's a good idea to bring something to wear over.

I was glad to have such a fun tour. Thank you!

行きのバスの中から既にエンターテイメントが始まる(盛り上がっている)アメリカらしいツアーでした。バスガイドさん最高です！
ショーが始まる前の余興も、自由な中に一体感があり楽しかったです。ホラ貝の合図を聞き逃さなければ、ちゃんと流れについていけます。でも流れに遅れても問題ないです！皆んな好きなように時間を過ごしています。その自由感が心地よくなります。
英語はできた方が楽しいですが、アメリカのエンターテイメントを体で感じるのであれば、言葉は気にしなくていいです！日本人の団体ツアーから少しでも離れた経験をしたい人にオススメです！
デラックスディナーコースはお金を払う価値アリです。食事も運んでもらえて、お土産や24ドルの金券(カード)ももらえます。
私達は、浴衣を着て行きました！皆さんお洒落しているので、恥ずかしくないですい。夜は冷えるので、羽織る物を持っていくといいです。
こんなに楽しいツアーがあって良かった、と思いました。ありがとうございました。

This was truly a great time. We had the deluxe package so we had special seating and an unobstructed view of the stage and entertainers. The weather was great as well as the food and drinks. They took great care of us and attended our every request. They had lots of activities at the cove. They had spear throwing, rafting, lei making and of course hula lessons. If you go to the island make the time to attend a luau and especially at Paradise Cove. It was simply the best.

I was able to enjoy it even without understanding the language! 言葉が分からなくても楽しめれました！

Reviewed by: sao

I stayed at Aulani and used the local gathering for this experience. I made my reservation based on reviews and experiences that mentioned you could still enjoy it even if you didn't understand the language. Understanding the flow of the event in advance helps you enjoy it smoothly. Conversely, if you don't know what to expect and can't understand the language, it might reduce the enjoyment.

I participated in the "Deluxe Dinner Package." Entry for the deluxe package is guided by staff, and after receiving a drink and taking a commemorative photo, you are seated at your designated table (it doesn't seem to be based on the order of arrival). You will need to show an age verification document (like a passport) for alcoholic drinks.

You receive a card charged with $24. You can use it to order drinks or buy souvenirs. Soft drinks were around $7. Water and coffee are available for free.

You can enjoy events until the show starts. You can get tattoos, and make headpieces and arm decorations. You will need $1 for this, so be sure to prepare it in advance. Additionally, you can play games like javelin throwing and canoeing.

If you head towards the sound of the conch shell, there will be mini-events. You can see someone climbing a palm tree barehanded and dropping flowers, and you can watch a net fishing demonstration. Finally, a whole roasted pig is brought out from the ground, signaling the start of the buffet.

In the deluxe package, the food is served to you, and staff come to take drink orders. Considering that you receive a commemorative photo, I would recommend it over the standard package. They bring more food than you can eat.

The show included several interactive segments in addition to hula dancing. People celebrating anniversaries were invited on stage, and during the wedding hula dance, couples celebrating their anniversaries also danced, creating a charming, foreign atmosphere. There was a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary!

During the fire show, the park goes completely dark, but looking up, you can see a sky full of stars, which was beautiful.

While I wouldn't say it's a must-visit since it's quite far from Waikiki, if you're staying around Ko Olina, definitely check it out. My 70-year-old mother also enjoyed it very much.

最後は豚の丸焼きを土の中から出してきて「宴会（ビュッフェ）の開始だよ」みたいな合図で食事が始まります。

デラックスの場合は料理は運んでくれるし、ドリンクの注文にも来てくれます。
記念写真を頂けることを考えると、スタンダートよりもおすすめです。
料理は食べきれない量を持ってきてくれます。

ショーはフラダンス以外に客参加型のタイプが数回ありました。
記念日と思われる方がステージにあがったり、結婚のフラダンスの時は結婚記念日で来られている方もダンスを踊ったりと、ほほえましい外国的な雰囲気を楽しめれました。
５０周年のご夫婦がいらっしゃいました！
