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>

Exciting Hawaii Show ドキドキのハワイショー

Reviewed by: Hide

I participated in a Hawaiian show in Hawaii that I was looking forward to with my wife.

The meeting place and schedule were as planned, and they provided transportation by bus without any issues.

The local Hawaiian show, including hula dancing and fire dancing, was so much fun!!

However, there was no Japanese announcement on-site, so I couldn't keep up with the vibe. There were hardly any Japanese people there. If I could speak a little more English, I think I would have enjoyed it more and been able to communicate with the people at my table!

ハワイで楽しみにしていたハワイアンショー
嫁と一緒に参加しました。

待ち合わせ場所やスケジュール等は、
予定通りで問題なくバスで送迎してくれました

現地のハワイアンショーのフラダンスやファイヤーダンス等とっても楽しかった!!

ただ、現地での日本語アナウンスは無いので、
ノリにはついていけず。
日本人も殆どいませんでした。
多少英語ご話せるなら、もっと楽しめたし、
一緒の席の人達ともコミュニケーション出来たと思います!

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Kind of disappointed…

Reviewed by: Mandy

The show was overall good, especially the fire dance at the end. And the chief is quite talented because he needs to run the show, tell jokes and play drums.

Anyway,
This luau is inside the water park, and we use the restroom inside the water park which is a 5 minutes away from the luau place. Before the sun goes down, it’s very hot and sweaty. And we don’t have much space while seating. The experience was not pleasant.

Also, after everyone takes a picture and ready to seat down, they give u a cup of mai tai and takes one of the drink tickets. Don’t take that Mai Tai drink right away, just go to the bar section for the drinks.

And there are one thing I can’t figure it out, before the buffet starts, they showed us a roast pig and said this is gonna be one of the main course tonight. And everyone go line up for the buffet, the only dish pork-related is the pull pork which has nothing to do with the roast pig for sure. And they didn’t cut the roast pig in front of everyone. It looks like the roast pig is one of the actor for the luau.

For the price we are paying, we expect more.

Get there early for sure. Games and activities were fun. Make sure to watch the pig coming out of the ground! Food was good but not great but the show during and after dinner was really good. Left there not regretting spent the money.

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Save your money

Reviewed by: Tonette

The pre-show activities ? None of those happened.
I was really looking forward to experience their culture but NO. When we got there, we were welcomed (speech and all that) then lined up for food and drinks then the show started.

I paid for a VIP royal package expecting my experience will be smooth… The only distinction between VIP and non VIP is the table arrangement and priority line for food but doesn’t apply if you wanna get drinks… which was very inconvenient.

Bottom line, I didn’t get my money’s worth.

Hope this helps.

Family trip 家族旅行

Reviewed by: ホノカ

I didn't have any concerns about infection since we were all facing the same direction watching the show or eating quietly. When you show your voucher at the entrance, you receive a card. The card has $20 loaded onto it, which can be used for drinks or shopping at the concession stand. You can enjoy some leisurely activities while waiting for the show to start, like riding in a canoe. The teriyaki chicken was delicious.

同じ向きを向いてショーを見ていたり黙食をしていたので感染の不安はありませんでした。バチュラを入口で見せるとカードがもらえます。そのカードに20ドル分入っていました。ドリンクや売店で買い物をする時に使えます。カヌーに乗せてもらったりショーが始まるまでの時間ものんびり遊びながら過ごせます。食事は照り焼きチキンのようなのは美味しかったです。

Germaine's Luau - Fun Backyard Style Luau with Dinner, Show & Fire-Knife Dance

Good

Reviewed by: Val

I think more variety of food, the free alcoholic needs more alcohol. The guy who goes around collecting trash missed us not once but twice. We waved at him several times but he still missed us.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Val, I'm sorry we didn't have enough of a variety of food to your liking. We couldn't serve you a completely authentic Hawaiian food buffet because you probably wouldn't eat it. We had to do more of a local variety of island favorites to have more of a Hawaiian/American buffet. We offer baked fish, grilled boneless chicken, kalua pork(cooked in the imu, or underground oven), and teriyaki beef along with a fruit salad, macaroni salad, pineapple cole slaw, white rice, plus lomi salmon,& poi(a hawaiian staple)....sweet rolls, and couple desserts. Truly that is quite a variety of food. Not sure how much alcohol you expected,...but we have had some feedback about certain drinks being too strong, so I'm surprised. I'm not sure why the guy collecting the trash missed you, but I apologize for him. Thank you so much for your feedback, and hope that you will one day return to our island and our luau again!! Mahalo, Germaine's Luau

Wonderful Experience

Reviewed by: Melinda Kennedy

My daughter and I had a wonderful time at chief’s luau. The Chief was so funny and they all put on a great show! You could really feel the warmth of his personality shining through his speech and his humor made everything great. Tons of fire dancing, singing, story telling, and more dancing all around. Great food and great people to share the experience with. Felt like you were still in paradise. Definitely recommend purchasing close up seats and the lei package so you can get the full experience. Especially if it’s your first time in Hawaii. Totally worth every penny.

Good show but could be better...

Reviewed by: Heidi

The show was good. The host is very entertaining. Food is as usual, nothing spectular. Upon arrival, only adult received drink tickets which the description did not indicate kids and youth don't get ticket for drink. With the price, the kids deserve soda tickets. It will be better if there are more pre-show activities, such as more photo backdrops and more lighting.

Very well organized

Reviewed by: Stacey

We booked a shuttle to and from the Luau and paid for the Standard Package. This set up was perfect. The shuttle boarding was organized, spotless, and new. Our guide filled us in on expectations of the ride and luau. There were funny stories/laughter/entertainment on the bus. The luau was exceptional, professional, very well organized and laid out. Something for everyone. The dancing/singing was fantastic, everyone could see the open air stage from their seats, food was fantastic and lots of it. Drinks were aplenty, beautiful backstage for pictures either by a professional for purchase or your selfie.
I would absolutely take this again and recommend it to everyone!

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Awesome Show

Reviewed by: Lydia

We had a really great time. From our bus host to the main event. Cousin Tao was our bus host and she made the 45 minute bus ride fly by. She educated us on the culture the tattoos and made us laugh. She talked about pearl harbour, the climate of the island, as well as some of her native language.

We enjoyed the food. The pork was flavorful, chicken was good. Like anyone, I stayed away from what I knew I wouldn't like. Drinks were ok, but we aren't big drinkers to begin with. The main show amazing. Chief was very entertaining. The dancers were authentic. They tell a story and explain each islands culture, while entertaining you. The finale was great with multiple fire knife world champions. I highly recommend this luau! Yeah it's not on the beach, but so what! I learned about the culture, and had great food.
Also at the end of the night we ended up with two drunk strays. Cousin Tao, even though she didn't have to. She could've just said sorry you aren't on the roster and made them get off the bus. She
Called her boss, asked him to come back to bring them back to Waikiki. I thought that was super nice of her. If you want a genuine luau experience go to Chiefs luau.

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Had a great time once we arrived

Reviewed by: R Gaspar

Our arranged bus was 20 min late, but part of the blame was a nearby hit and run (so traffic staggered around the police and paramedics). This caused us to miss most of the pre-show. Can't really fault anyone for that - just wished we had experienced it.
They no longer separate parties by table, so no more actual COVID separation (on paper/signs, they ask people to wear masks when away from their tables, but hardly anyone did so and no one enforced it).
Food was great. Buffet style, both sides of 2 rows of tables. Pick what you want, go back as much as you want. Lines were quick.
Performance was awesome. I wasn't aware that they had world champion fire dancers in the troupe. I personally loved the stories and explanations of each dance.
