Entertainment and dinner was both fantastic and above what we expected. Fantastic event to learn traditions and experience them yourself. This is a must for first time and returning travelers. You will not find more gracious people anywhere. I would give this 6 stars out of 5

The dance was fun, but I couldn't understand much of the content since I don't speak Polynesian. I would have liked a general explanation of the content. The activities were enjoyable.
ダンスは楽しかったけど、ポリネシアン語がわからないので、内容の理解があまりできなかった。大体の内容の説明が欲しかった。
アクティビティは楽しかった。

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.

This time, I participated in my first trip to Hawaii with a Diamond Premier seat. With priority entry, I was able to sit right next to the stage, and it was an impressive show filled with the spirit of Hawaii! The food was also available to us first, and both the taste and portion size were great. However, everything from the entrance announcement was in English, so I couldn't understand the MC's jokes, which was a bit disappointing. It was a moment that made me realize the necessity of English conversation at my age. If the budget allows, I think it's better to participate with a Diamond Premier seat. Regular seats enter after the Diamond seats, and since the seating is further back, you can't feel the dynamism of the show.
今回は、初めてのハワイ旅行で、ダイヤモンドプレミアシートで参加させてもらいました。
優先入場で、席もステージの横で見ることができて、迫力があって、ハワイ感満載のショーでした!
料理も優先的に取ることができて、味もボリュームも問題ありませんでした。
ただ、入場案内から全て英語なので、MCのトークで笑いが起きても、理解出来ずで少し残念でした。英会話の必要性を、この年で感じた1シーンです。
予算が許すならば、ダイヤモンドプレミアで参加された方がいいと思います。レギュラーシートは入場がダイヤモンドシートのあとで、食事を取るのももあと、座席も後方なので、ショーのダイナミックさを感じることが出来ないです。

The Starlight Luau changed locations since the last time we visited Hawaii, which made the experience more intimate and explosive. Our family felt like they were a part of the show. The food was exquisite, and the dancers were more than entertainers; they passionately expressed their culture and made you feel like family.

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!

We thoroughly enjoyed the live singing and cultural experience.
The venue was next to Sheraton, we opted for premium seating which had front row seat to the show and more drinks.
The bartender who clearly wasn't happy to be there (there's table service we found which were much more pleasant), so we avoided the bartender there onwards.
The food was lovely except for the 2nd course where 4 sources of protein were served (chicken, fish, pork and something else) and it was heavy.
The highlight were the singing and dancers, we had a really lovely time and the weather was superb with the beach background and gosh what a beautiful sunset.

I wanted to see the show from a good seat, so I chose the Diamond Seat. The seating arrangement was not as shown in the seating chart, which surrounded the stage; instead, it was a standard setup with the stage directly in front and tables facing it. I arrived 30 minutes before the reception, but there was already a long line. I mistakenly lined up in the Golden Seat line because I wasn't sure where to queue. It seemed that those with Diamond Seats had priority entry, and we ended up being the last to enter among the Diamond guests. Fortunately, there was an open table in the front row, almost in the center, so we were able to sit there, but please be careful not to make a mistake in the line.
Before the show, there were solo hula performances by both men and women, followed by a moment where all the guests danced a hula together. Then came the buffet. Since we could access it first from the Diamond Seats, it was nice and not crowded.
The show featured not only hula but also Tahitian, Polynesian, Maori, and fire dancing, which kept us entertained until the very end.
The Diamond Premier Seat is a bit more expensive, but I think the satisfaction level is high, so I recommend it.
良い席で見たかったのでダイヤモンドシートにしました。
席はこちらにある座席表のようにステージを囲むような配置ではなく、普通に正面にステージ、それに向かってテーブルがありました。
受付の30分前に着きましたが、既に長蛇の列でした。
しかも並ぶ所がよくわからずにゴールデンシートの列に並んでしまっていました。
ダイヤモンドシートから優先入場、それも先着順に良い席に案内されているようで、私達はダイヤモンドの中では入場が最後になってしまいました。
幸いほぼ中央の最前列テーブルに空きがあったのでそこに座れましたが、並ぶ列をお間違えの無いようにお気を付けください。
ショーの前に男女それぞれソロのフラがあり、その後、客がその場で全員で1曲フラを踊る場面がありました。
そしてブッフェ。
こちらもダイヤモンドシートから優先で取れるので混まずに良かったです。
ショーはフラのみでなく、タヒチアン、ポリネシアン、マオリ、ファイヤーダンスがあり、最後まで飽きること無く楽しめました。
ダイヤモンドプレミアシートは少しお高くなりますが満足度は高くなると思うのでおすすめです。

I'm satisfied. There are various things like only being able to go for food once, seating being strictly first-come, first-served, and long waits for taking photos, but if your budget allows, it's definitely worth it.
