Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Royal Hawaiian Luau Best food

Reviewed by: manik70

We have been to 3 other Luau's the food was the best here. We had 11 in our party Parents, Grandparents, and Children. We had all booked seperatly but the staff did place us together and were extremely helpfull and attentive. Last year we went to Paradise cove and for the kids it has a lot more to do. But this was close to our hotel and we all had a good time. It was money and time well spent.

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Worth the drive and money

Reviewed by: Joy

Paradise Cove is a lovely location with a sunset that is amazing! We really enjoyed our visit and the luau. The food was well prepared and the buffet line was not long. We preferred the buffet because we could select what we wanted and the quantity. The only negative portion of the experience was the fact that the tables were not covered which made for a long hot day in the sun and the tables where set over the dirt and sand. Aside from that it was memorable.

Wonderful entertainment

Reviewed by: Balwiindar

I loved the polynesian cultural center. The luau, night show and the overall cultural center were amazing. It was great fun, but I would recommend the whole day activity because you need that much time to visit all the different islands and their shows at the center. This was my second time visiting the center and I would recommend it to anybody.

Reviewed by: jemmy

On June 7th, I participated with my mother-in-law, her friend, my sister-in-law, the neighbor lady, and the neighbor's sister, making a total of six people. I joined a different tour (in English) last year, but I had a great time even on my second visit. Everyone who went with me was very moved. The night show was especially amazing. I was thanked with, "Thank you for taking us."

6月7日に義母、義母の友達、義妹、隣のおばちゃん、おばちゃんの妹の6人で参加しました。私は去年は別のツアー(英語)で参加したのですが、2回目でも十分、楽しかったです。一緒に行ったみんな、とても感動していました。特に夜のショウは最高ですね。「連れて行ってくれてありがとう。」と感謝されました。

I love it! 大好きです!

Reviewed by: chewie

I absolutely love this tour and have repeated it about five times. I recommend it for those who enjoy watching shows and dances. The only downside is that it's far from Waikiki, but I still think it's worth the trip. I've seen the show from various seating options, and nothing beats the sense of presence! If you're going to make the effort to go, I recommend getting good seats. It's a completely different experience! The ice cream that comes with the package might be difficult to finish if you're not a fan of sweets, but it still makes for a fun memory. The dinner buffet isn't something that will leave you amazed, but I was able to enjoy a variety of dishes. I definitely plan to go on this tour again! 😊

このツアーは大好きで、5回ほどリピートしています。
ショウやダンスを観るのが好きな方にはオススメです。
ワイキキから遠いのが難点ではありますが、
それでも行く価値は充分にあると思います。
いろんな席種でショウを見ましたが、やはり臨場感に勝るものなし!
せっかく足を運ぶならいい席で観るのをオススメします。
全然違います!
セットでついてくるアイスは、甘いもの好きな人じゃないと完食は難しいかもですが
でも、それも楽しい思い出になります。
夕食のビュッフェは、すっごくおいしい!!と感激するものではありませんが
フツーにいろいろ取って、楽しんで食べられましたよー
またこのツアーには必ず行くと思います(^○^)

I succumbed to sleepiness. 睡魔に負けて

Reviewed by: hiro

I participated on the night of my arrival in Hawaii. I felt sleepy and dozed off on the bus and during the show (especially during the relaxed hula). The show itself made me feel like "I've really come to Hawaii." The meal was a buffet and the taste was decent. I think it's worth participating if it's your first time in Hawaii.

ハワイ到着日の夜に参加しました。眠気が襲ってきて、バスの中やショー中(ゆったりしたフラの時)にうたた寝してました...。
ショー自体は「ハワイに来たなぁ」と感じるものでした。食事はバイキングで味はまずまずでした。
初めてハワイに来たという方なら参加してもいいと思います。

The last time I came to Honolulu, I went to Germaine's Luau (ICK!) and since I had such a miserable time with them, I decided to give luaus another chance and headed over to the Royal Hawaiian Luau with my boyfriend. I am SO glad that I went since it was a great experience and we had a really good time. The food was very delicious, the show was top-notch and it was really romantic.

Some friends and I got together to attend the Royal Hawaiian Luau at the large beautiful pink hotel of Waikiki and it was great. We were greeted with beautiful orchid flower leis at the entrance of the luau by the performers and immediately served a welcome mai tai. The whole setting of the feast was decorated with class and Oh-My-Goodness, the beach and the sunset was perfect to capture a photographic memory.

The host of the show did not waste anytime in welcoming all the guests preparing us for a wonderful feast and show. The food was delicious. There were several isles of Honolulu's most popular food and desert and lets not forget the huge roasted pig that everyone looked eager to taste. The Polynesian performers were brilliant. They were graceful, energetic, and very entertaining. They got the audience involved and let visitors get an experience their first hukilau and Tahitian dancing. The Polynesian performers were awesome and very energetic. They really put on a great show.

I visited after a year. 1年ぶりに行きました。

Reviewed by: katunari123

I visited after a year. My impression is that this year's students are a bit lacking? For first-time readers, they might be thinking, "Huh? What?" The Polynesian Cultural Center operates as a nonprofit organization for students who receive scholarships from the adjacent school. Because of this, they graduate in four years... Last year there was a standing ovation, but this year was just okay. However, there were some good things. The food at the Standard was good.

So, I'm looking forward to seeing improvements next year. Mahalo.

1年ぶりに行きました。感想は、今年の学生は、キャシャかな?まだまだ?て感じです。初めて読む人は、え?何?て思うかも知れませんが。ポリネシアカルチャーセンターは、隣接した学生が、奨学金を受ける為の非営利団体で営業しています。その為4年で卒業してしまうので・・・・・?
去年はスタンディングオベーションでしたが。今年はまあまあでした。でも良いことが有りました。???スタンダードでも料理が、良かったです。
・・・と言うことで。来年は良くなっているか楽しみです。マハロ。

Reviewed by: Flower Bunny

First of all, may I just say YUMMM!? If there is one thing that this luau does well, it is the food! The buffet lines were groaning under the weight of all of the delicacies and the tables were laden with a bounty of food. There were tossed, macaroni and shrimp salads, an incredibly yummy fruit salad mixed with haupia, a perfect lomi-lomi salmon (not too salty like how a lot of places make it), some kalua pork which was insanely juicy, of course there was some of the ever-popular mahi-mahi, and my favorite, teriyaki beef that just melted in my mouth! I kept going back for more and even though I was stuffed, I still had enough room for dessert, and thank goodness for that. The guava cake was to-die-for and the macadamia nut cream pie was a little slice of heaven. Yes, it was really THAT good! Out of all the luaus I have to been to so far, the Royal Hawaiian Luau has, by far, the BEST food!

Reviewed by: dangouo

I am very satisfied with the interesting content of the Polynesian Cultural Center. I also felt the kindness of the young volunteers deeply.

However, I have some complaints. The tour included sightseeing around the island, but the guide was too pushy in trying to sell products at the store they recommended. Since many participants were elderly, they ended up buying things due to the pressure. While it's ultimately the buyer's responsibility, I have serious doubts about the high prices of the products and whether they are worth it. It seems that others who participated also made purchases, but later expressed regret about it. This is not just a matter of personal responsibility; I believe it's problematic to encourage product purchases during the tour. In contrast to the wonderful content of the Polynesian Cultural Center, the guide's attitude during the bus ride was an issue.

 ポリネシア文化センタ−の面白さや内容については、大変満足しています。若いボランティアの方の親切さも身にしみたようです。
 不満なことは、島内観光も一緒のツア−でしたが、ガイドの方が案内して頂いた店で、余りにも商品を進めて購入させようとしています。参加したのが年寄りだったのですが、しつこさに閉口して購入しました。購入した本人の責任ですが、商品の高額なこととその品に見合う金額ではないのか、はなはだ疑問です。一緒に参加されていた人も購入していたようですが、後でこれには参ったという声が上がっていたようです。自己責任で片づく問題ではなく、ツア−の最中に商品の購入を勧めるのが問題ではないでしょう。ポリネシア文化センタ−の内容が余りにもすばらしかったのと反対に、車中でのガイドの態度の方が問題でした。

The meal was not served due to the center's policy (no alcohol), but the food was delicious.
After that, the exciting show began! The authentic hula dance and fire show were all impressive and captivating. It was wonderful. We had great seats (second row from the front center) and enjoyed it immensely. My child was thrilled and exclaimed, "I want to go again!"
The tour guide, Kana, was very entertaining and easy to understand during the bus ride. Thank you for your help.
Kana, I hope you are okay after falling in the bus while driving on the highway... I'm glad it wasn't serious. Take care!
I would like to participate in the tour with my family again next time. Thank you for the wonderful travel memories.

お食事はセンターのポリシーという事で(アルコールは)出なかったが、お料理は美味しかったです。
その後、楽しみなショーの始まり!始まり!本場のフラダンス、ファィヤーショウ等など、どれも迫力ある見ごたえでした。素晴らしかったです。又お席がとても良い席で(中央前から2番目)大いに楽しめました。子どもが大喜びで、「又行きたい!」と興奮していました。
ツワーガイドの「KANAさん」のバスの中でのガイドもとても面白く分かりやすくて良かったです。お世話になりました。
KANAさん、高速道路走行中にバスの中で転倒してしまいましたが・・・お身足は大丈夫ですか?大事に至らなくて宜しかったです。お大事に!

I wanted to stay longer. もっと滞在したかった

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I stayed from the opening until the end of the show, and there were so many facilities to visit that one day was definitely not enough. On that day, I had a very clear and enjoyable tour guided by a Japanese exchange student. For example, since there were many visitors, they took us to hidden spots to ensure we could definitely see the shows and made efforts to secure seats for the shows. I believe each Japanese exchange student brings their own personality to create different tours. If I visit again, I think I will be able to experience a completely different tour.

開園からショーの終わりまでの滞在でしたが、見学できる施設が多く、とても1日ではまわり切れません。
当日は日本人留学生の方の案内でとてもわかりやすく、楽しいツアーを体験できました。例えば、入場者が多いので、確実にショーが見れるように穴場に連れて行ったり、ショーの席が確保できるように努力したりと、おそらく日本人留学生の方それぞれの個性がいろいろなツアーを作っているのだろうと思いました。もし次回訪れたら、全く違うツアーが体験できると思います。
