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.

I definitely recommend experiencing a Hawaiian show if you come to Hawaii. I'm satisfied with the all-you-can-eat option at this price. It was fun when the grandmother from the family at the next table, who came from California, casually talked to us.

ハワイアンショーはハワイに来たら是非一度はおすすめします。食べ放題でこの価格は満足しています。隣のテーブルのカリフォルニアから来た家族のおばーちゃんが、気軽に声をかけてくれて楽しかったです。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Amazing night, really great value

Reviewed by: Tarryn

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. Would highly recommend!

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

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.

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 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。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Paradise Cove 2017

Reviewed by: Henry

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.

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！

ファイヤーショーの時には園内が真っ暗になるのですが、上を見ると満天の星空が見れてとてもキレかったです。

ワイキキからは距離があるのですっごくお勧めとは言わないですが、コオリナ周辺に宿泊ならぜひ行ってみてください。

If you're staying at Hilton, it might be worth a visit. ヒルトンに泊まってるなら一回は行ってもいいかも。

Reviewed by: rago

Since Hawaiian shows are not easy to come by, if you're staying at the Hilton, I think you won't regret going to this one located on the rooftop of the parking lot. There are more locals than Japanese people. You can fill your plate with buffet-style food from the good seats in order. It's better not to expect much in terms of taste. However, the content of the show is worth it. The final fire dance, in particular, is impressive.

なかなかハワイアンショーは見れないので、ヒルトンに泊まってるなら、駐車場の屋上にあるこちらに行っても損はしないと思います。
日本人より本国の方が多め。
良い席から順にブュッフェスタイルの料理をプレートに入れて行きます。味は期待しない方が良い。
ただ、ショーの内容は価値あり。特に最後のファイヤーダンスは迫力ありますよ。

This is my second time participating. 2度目の参加です

Reviewed by: neo

I participated two years ago and had a great time, so I joined again this time. Unfortunately, even though it was the weekend, it seemed like there were fewer tourists than last time, and it felt a bit lacking in excitement (I participated at the end of February). As mentioned in the review I referred to last time, the hula dancers at Ko Olina seem to be very talented, and I was impressed by their beautiful hula, but this time I wasn't as moved. It might be because it was my second time... If you participate during a busier season, I think it will be more lively and enjoyable.

前回、2年前に参加して とても良かったので、今回も参加しました。
残念なことに、週末でしたが前回よりもツアー客が減っているようで
いまいち盛り上がりに欠けた気がします。（2月末に参加）
前回参考にさせて頂いたレビューにもかかれましたが
コウリナのフラダンサーはレベルの高いダンサーが揃っているようで
とても素敵なフラで感激しましたが、今回はあまり感激しませんでした。
2度目だったからかもしれませんが…
ツアー客の多い時期に参加されれば、盛り上がるので楽しめると思います。

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

First timers on My birthday

Reviewed by: Christina Wyatt

The Luau was very nice, good food, exciting, and romantic. My husband and I really hate buffets because people like putting their hands directly into the food. Which is totally gross but all luaus are buffets. Even though it was against our norm friends advised us when going to Hawaii it was one thing we just had to do. We decided to try it even though we are super against buffets. I must say we were wrong and we were totally glad we went to this one. We reserved it on my birthday evening and it was really romantic. It was on a roof top so you could see the beach and sun setting, the food was really good, the staff, dancers, entertainment were great and kept our attention. Everyone was so friendly and staff was very attentive. It was the most exciting, fun, and romantic birthday I ever had. I must add not one person placed their dirty little paws in the food which was a big relief for us.

Thank you all for making it the most remarkable and memorable birthday ever.
