I went to the "Waikiki Starlight Luau" at Hilton Hawaiian Village. First, when I arrived at the meeting time, I took a commemorative photo with one of the dancers (which will later be sold at the table for $25 each). There were quite a few people, and then we all headed to the venue.
We took the elevator up to the venue, which is set up on the rooftop of the parking lot. It was past 5:30 PM, but it was really bright. Sunglasses are a must. As soon as we arrived, drinks were served, and for a while, they drew temporary tattoos on our hands with a pen, but I was a bit confused since I didn't understand English very well.
After that, people in the higher seats could go get their food. Those in the regular seats had to wait in line quite a bit to get their dishes. The show was a bit lacking in excitement if you don't understand English. My 5-year-old daughter got bored, but my 8-year-old daughter enjoyed it quite a bit.
Drinks are limited to two per person, but you can order more. There are also kids' meals available, but my children were fine with the adult portions. The foreign ladies were really excited about the male dancers!
In any case, I think it's a good idea to bring sunglasses and enjoy the atmosphere.
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジの「ワイキキスターライトルアウ」へ行ってきました。
まずは、当日、集合時間にいくと、ダンサー?!の方と記念写真をパチリ(これは後で、テーブルに1枚25$で販売にきます)。結構な人数で、そのあとゾロゾロと会場へ。
会場へは、エレベータを使ってのぼっていきます。
駐車場の屋上!?に、設置。
時間は17:30過ぎですが、まぶしいです。サングラスは必須。つくと、すぐにドリンクがでて、そのあとはしばらく、手にペンでタトゥーみたいに書いてくれたり、とあるのですが、いかんせん、英語がよくわからないと一瞬!?となりました。
そのあと、高い席のヒトから食事をとりにいけます。普通の席の方々は、結構、料理をとるのに並ばないといけない感じです。ショーは、英語がわからないとやはり、、ノリは今一つ。5歳の次女はあきていましたが、8歳の長女は結構楽しんでいました。
ドリンクは2つまでセットされていますが、追加は可能です。あと、キッズ用の食事もありますが、うちの子供たちは大人用でOKでした。
外人のおばさまがたは、男性のダンサーの方々に大盛り上がり!
いずれにしても、サングラスをもっていって、雰囲気含め楽しんでかと思います。

The staff in the VIP room were lively and kept the energy high. After moving to the green room, I met Elton John. In the dressing room, I also saw Lady Gaga in jeans. During the backstage tour, I felt like a singer while taking photos. I'm not sure if the student kids enjoyed the show after dinner, but for me, who spent my youth in the 60s and 80s, it was a wonderful time.
最初のVIPルームのスタッフからノリノリで、テンションがあがりっぱなしでした。移動後のグリーンルームでは、エルトンジョン?さんとご対面、楽屋では、ジーンズ姿のレディーガガ?も。その後のバックヤードツアーでは、シンガー気分で写真撮影。食事後のショーは学生の子供たちは楽しめたのかわからないですが、60−80年代に青春を過ごした私には楽しい時間でした。

I participated with a group of five friends. I decided to board the large ship because I had been on one before and wanted to see the fireworks, but the fireworks felt a bit far away. However, the performances on the ship included dancing, and we could enjoy them together. I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I understood English a little better.
友人5人のグループで参加しました。大きな船には乗ったことがあるのと花火を見たくて乗船を決めましたが少し花火は遠くかんじました。ただ船の中のパフォーマンスは踊りありで一緒に楽しめます。英語がもう少し分かればもっと楽しめたんだろうなと思います。

First, when I arrived at the venue, I was given a welcome flower lei to wear around my neck. After that, I enjoyed a Mai Tai while taking food from the buffet as I watched the show. The drinks included one free Mai Tai and another drink, and after that, you order with a prepaid system. The show featured classic performances like singing, Polynesian dance, and fire dance. The roast beef was delicious. Considering the price, it felt reasonable, though perhaps a bit on the expensive side.
まず、会場に着くと、ウェルカムフラワーレイを首にかけてもらいました。その後、マイタイを飲み、ショーを見ながらビュッフェ形式で好きなものをとって食べる、という感じです。ドリンクは、マイタイとその他のドリンク1杯分が無料で、あとは、前金制で頼むという感じ。ショーは歌やポリネシアンダンス、ファイヤーダンスなど、定番のものです。ご飯は、ローストビーフが美味しかったです。値段を考えると、まぁ妥当というか、少々高い?という感じでした。

We went with six people from three generations. The sea breeze felt great. The waves got bigger around Diamond Head, and my wife got seasick. I think it would be fine for those who don't get seasick easily. We cruised slowly and returned around sunset. The evening view of Waikiki was a bit cloudy, but the setting sun was very beautiful. I wish I could have understood the captain's talk a bit more to enjoy it even more.
3世代6人で行きました。海の風は気持ちがよかった。ダイヤモンドヘッドを過ぎるあたりから波が大きくなり、嫁さんは船酔いしてしまいました。酔いやすい人でなければ大丈夫だと思います。ゆっくりクルーズして日の沈むころ戻りました。ワイキキの夕方の眺めも、ちょっと雲がかかったけど沈む夕日もとてもきれいでした。もう少し船長の話を理解できればもっと楽しめたのにと思いました。

I had the most happy time. The staff and passengers laughed together, creating a lively and good atmosphere. We cut through the wind at an unexpectedly fast speed, soaking in the splashes of the waves, which added just the right amount of thrill. Above all, the sunset viewed from the sea was unforgettable; it felt like I was a movie hero (or heroine) with the orange road leading to the sunset from the yacht.
最高にhappyな時間を過ごしました。スタッフと乗客が同じツボで大笑いし、開放感で盛り上がり、goodな雰囲気。思いのほか早いスピードで風を切り、波しぶきを全身に浴びて程よいスリル感も二重丸。何よりも海上から見たサンセットは忘れられない、ヨットから夕日に続くオレンジロードムードたっぷりで映画のヒーロー(ヒロイン)になった気分でした。

I participated in the luau show because I wanted to show it to my mother, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time. Since we had a small child with us, I chose standard seating, thinking it might be troublesome if the child started to make noise. However, it turned out to be fine since we were seated directly in front. The only downside was that we had to wait a little to get our food after the Golden Circle guests.
The food was good, especially the sushi rolls and roast beef, but the rest was just average. It was fun to see various dances, and the fire dance was particularly impressive. Instead of making noise, the child was actually keeping rhythm with the music.
It was great that we could take commemorative photos with the dancers after the show.
初ハワイの母にルアウショーを見せたくて参加しました。
席は小さい子供がいるので騒ぎ出して迷惑になったら困ると思いスタンダードシートにしました。見づらいかなぁと思っていましたが、正面だったからか何の問題もなかったです。ただ、お料理を取りに行くのはゴールデンサークルシートの方達のアトになるので少し待ちますが。。。
お料理は海苔巻きとローストビーフは美味しかったですが他は普通かな。
色々なダンスを見ることができて楽しかったです。その中でもファイヤーダンスは迫力がありました。子供も騒ぎ出すどころか音楽に合わせてリズムをとっていました。
ショー終了後にダンサーの方々と記念撮影ができたのは良かったです。

I was able to participate on a nice day. I had previously joined daytime cruises, but this was my first experience with a sunset cruise. It was a bit chilly, but the sea was illuminated by the orange sun, creating a different atmosphere compared to the daytime views. It seemed that not many Asians participated, which added to the feeling of "Ah, this is foreign," and I liked that.
お天気の良い時に参加できました。
今まで日中のクルーズには参加したことがありましたが、サンセットクルーズは初体験。
少し肌寒くて、でも海はオレンジの太陽に照らされて、
日中見ている海の景色とはまた一味違った感じでした。

There is a boarding area between the Sheraton and Halekulani, and check-in is done flexibly there.
Both the captain and the crew were lively and helped create a great atmosphere. It didn't feel forced, so we were able to enjoy ourselves too.
They quickly brought us drinks as soon as we ran out, and I felt they were really attentive. I also received some snacks. Everyone was kind, and I really felt their hospitality.
We even saw dolphins along the way.
There was a comment about there being few Japanese people, but when we boarded, there were about three groups.

Once we entered, there was a long wait until the show started. Since we went on the day of our arrival, I ended up feeling sleepy towards the end of the show.
We had to go up in turns to get our food, but our seats were towards the back, so we had to wait quite a bit, and there wasn't much to do, which felt like a waste of time.
It might be nice for those who want to enjoy the show leisurely, but considering the quality of the food, I thought it was a bit pricey, even with the strong yen.
入ってから、ショーが始まるまでが長く、到着日に行ったので、ショーの終わりの方は睡くなって、しまいました。
料理も順番に取りに行くのですが、私たちの席は最後の方だったので、かなり待たされ、ずっとする事もなくダラダラで、時間が勿体なかったです。

Last month, I booked this as part of my son's wedding event. Most of the participants were repeat visitors to Hawaii and had already experienced dinner cruises. The bride's wish was for a dinner cruise, so after some deliberation, we decided on this sunset cruise. The boat was small, which might be a bit unfortunate for those who are sensitive to motion, but the open-air breeze was pleasant, and the staff had experience staying in Japan and were very attentive. Next time, I would like to take a cruise for my husband and my anniversary.
先月、息子のウエディングのイベントとして申込みました。
殆どの参加者が、ハワイのリピーターと言う事もあり、ディナークルーズも経験済み。お嫁さんの希望はデナークルーズ。で、頭を抱えた結果決めたのが、こちらのサンセット クルーズ。船が小さい為、船に弱い方には少しお気の毒でしたが、オープンエアーの風邪が心地よく、スタッフの方も、日本に滞在経験があり、とても気の付くスタッフでした。次回は私と主人のアニバーサリーで乗船したいものです。

The instructions and directions to the location where we could park was not specific for those of us who had never been in the area before (we paid $26 to park). Our emailed confirmation told us to check in at 6:45pm and the catamaran would set sail at 7pm. Our group was first to arrive with plenty of time for checking in. Our catamaran did not arrive to pick us up until 7:15pm and it took another 10 minutes after that to get us all checked in to board. Once onboard, we realized the mai tais were weak so we drank beer instead. This was a very slow-paced cruise. We would like to come back but are more likely to experience a different catamaran cruise than this one.

When I came to Hawaii before, during the sunset cruise, there was dancing right in front of me, and jumping in to participate was so much fun.

First of all, even though the meeting place was our hotel, it took a while for the guide to be identified. It seems that the dancer who was performing was the guide. We saw other tourists talking to that dancer and being taken somewhere, so we decided to try asking them too, and we were able to arrive safely.
Then, there was a long line to the venue, and it took a lot of time before we could take our seats. Since we had reserved Golden Circle seats, we sat in the front row, and those in the Golden Circle were prioritized for food, so we could start eating quickly. However, those in the regular seats seemed to go for food more than 30 minutes later, so I definitely recommend reserving Golden Circle seats.
Also, when ordering beer, it seems that Japanese people are often perceived as looking younger, so they checked our age. In our case, they didn't ask for a passport, but if you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring an ID that shows your age.
The show featured dancers changing outfits one after another, and we got to see various dances. Personally, I found the solo dance of a little girl to be incredibly cute!
まず、集合場所が自分たちの宿泊ホテルだったにも関わらず、案内人が判明するまで時間がかかりました(A;´・ω・)
ダンスパフォーマンスをしていたダンサーさんが案内人だったみたいですw
他の観光客らしき人たちが、そのダンサーさんに声をかけてどこかに連れて行かれるのを見て、試しに声をかけると、私たちも無事、到着できた感じです。
そして会場まで長蛇の列で、席につくまでとても時間がかかりました。
ゴールデンサークル席を予約していたので、一番前の席に座り、ゴールデンは食事を取りに行くのも優先なので、早く食べ始めることができましたが、普通席の方々は30分以上も後に食事を取りに行くかんじなので、ぜひゴールデンサークル席を予約されることをお勧めします☆
あとはビール注文時に、やはり日本人は若く見られるらしく年齢を確認されたので(20代後半の私)、私たちの場合はパスポート提示までは求められませんでしたが、心配な方は年齢がわかる身分証を持って行かれたほうが良いかと思います。
ショーはダンサーさん達が次から次へと着替え、色々なダンスを見ることができました☆

The show was in English, so I thought it would be more enjoyable if I understood the language, but the show itself was powerful and wonderful, so I was glad to participate. The food was decent, and it was interesting to have Hawaiian food as well. During the show, people celebrating their birthdays or those visiting for their honeymoon were brought to the front to be celebrated, which I think made for great memories. However, the Japanese honeymoon couple seemed a bit shy while dancing together to the live band.
ショーは英語なので、言葉が分かるともっと楽しめると思いましたが、ショー自体が迫力があってすばらしいので、参加して良かった。食事もまあまあで、ハワイアンフードもありめずらしかった。ショーの中で今日が誕生日の人や今回ハネムーンで訪れている人など特別な人が前にでてみんなにお祝いされるのも、いい思い出になると思いました。ただ、日本人のハネムーンカップルは生バンドに合わせて抱き合いながらのダンスはちょっとはずかしそうでしたよ。

On the last day of our Golden Week trip, which was a Friday, we decided to participate in this highly rated activity of watching fireworks from a boat. After two hours, witnessing the ten-minute fireworks display was indeed a wonderful experience! However, while the food was tasty, I became anxious about whether I could eat much due to the boat's rocking for two hours (worried about seasickness). In the end, no one in my family could use the free drink tickets (two drinks each), and we barely managed to sip the first drink served.
Moreover, it was extremely cold. To protect my grandmother from the cold, we huddled together on the deck. Thankfully, we managed to avoid catching a cold until today, so it remains a good memory. The staff were cheerful and attentive to us, but considering all of this, I have to rate it accordingly.
Make sure to dress warmly if you go. I also recommend taking motion sickness medication before participating. Additionally, since the restroom is located at the bottom of the boat, I think it's best to avoid going to the restroom while on board to prevent seasickness. The sunset, the bright moon, and the view of Diamond Head illuminated by it were all wonderful, but I think one hour would have been sufficient.
GW旅行の最終日、金曜日だった為、花火を船上で見上げるのも一興かもね、と、皆さんの評価も高かった本アクティビティに参加しました。
2時間の末に見上げた10分の花火の饗宴を見上げたのはやはり素晴らしい経験でした!
が、食事は味はいいのですが、やはり食べると、2時間もつか(船酔いしてしまうのでは?)と不安になるくらい揺れるため、あまり食べることができず。
飲み物のフリーチケット(各2杯)は、結局家族のだれも使えず、最初のサービスの一杯に口をつけるのが精いっぱいでした。
そして、何より、超・寒かった。
祖母を寒さから守るため、身を寄せ合って甲板に座り、、結局今日まで風邪をひかないで済んだので、良い思い出ではありますが。
スタッフの皆さんは陽気で楽しく、我々にも大変気を使ってくださったのですが、、、そんなこんなで評価の星数です。
しっかり暖かい恰好をしていってください。
さらに、酔い止めは、しっかり飲んで参加をお勧めします。
また、船のトイレは船底にあるため、船上でトイレに行くのも、酔うのを避けるには、やめたほうがよいかと思います。

We splurged and reserved premium seats, and on April 30th, we attended with my wife and our nephew. When we arrived at the meeting time, there was already a long line, but we were prioritized and guided to the front row table. It seemed that those with general seating were being directed to the front row seats in order of arrival, so I recommend arriving early.
The table we were shown to was a round one right in front of the stage. The backdrop of the oceanfront stage featured Diamond Head, making for a fantastic location. Even though we had premium seats, those who arrived after us were seated with their backs to the stage and Diamond Head, which made the benefits of the premium seating feel a bit diminished.
The meal was served as a course rather than a buffet, and the staff frequently came to take drink orders, so we didn't feel any frustration. Since we were in Waikiki, it felt like there were overwhelmingly more Japanese guests. At our table for nine, aside from the two Americans at the neighboring table, everyone else was Japanese.
I have experienced several luau shows, including those on the outer islands, but this one was not the type where the audience participates with a lot of chatter; it was a well-structured entertainment show to watch. The fire dance, in particular, was the most impressive I have ever seen.
I was glad that the show coincided with my stay in Waikiki, as I was able to enjoy a very luxurious time. Thank you very much.
奮発してプレミア席を予約し、我々夫婦と甥っ子と3人で4月30日に参加しました。
集合時間に行くとすでに長蛇の列が出来ていましたが、優先して最前列のテーブルに案内していただきました。一般席を予約している方は到着順に舞台の前列の席から誘導されているようでしたので、早めに到着することをお勧めします。
私たちが案内されたのは舞台の目の前にある丸テーブルの席でした。オーシャンフロントの舞台の背景にはダイアモンドヘッドがあり、最高のロケーションでした。同じプレミア席でも私たちの後から来た方は舞台とダイアモンドヘッドを背にする席でしたのでプレミア席の<メリット感>が少ないようにも感じました。
食事はビュッフェスタイルではなく、コースのお料理が順番に席に運ばれてきました。飲み物は席の係の方が頻繁にオーダーを聞きに来てくれていましたのでフラストレーションは感じませんでした。
ワイキキですので、印象としては私たち日本人が圧倒的に多く感じました。私たち9人席のテーブルも隣の席の米国人おふたり以外は日本の方でした。
離島も含めてルアウショーの経験はいくつかありますが、観客が<ワイワイガヤガヤ>と参加するタイプのものではなく、全編がしっかりと構成されたエンターテイメントを<観る>というものでした。取り分けファイアーダンスは今まで観た中でも圧巻でした。

I went to a luau show. I wasn't expecting much, as I didn't plan to go all the way to the Polynesian Cultural Center.
However, I was pleasantly surprised. Even though I didn't understand the language, it felt like everyone could participate. The final fire dance was breathtaking. The dancers looked like they were having so much fun, which made it enjoyable for us too.
The meeting point was a bit hard to find, and the guidance wasn't sufficient, so I was a bit confused. I paid extra for good seats, but those who got in early were able to sit in the front. To get in early, you should stay a bit away on the Ala Moana side rather than at the meeting point. I think the guidance was provided early.

I applied for the Golden Circle Premium, but I was very disappointed as my seat was in a backstage-like area. I had high expectations for my first luau show. I arrived early, but the ticket exchange was not prioritized, and there were people who already had tickets while others were waiting in line, which was disappointing due to the lack of guidance. It felt like the seating was grouped by foreigners and Japanese. The food was delicious.
ゴールデンサークルプレミアムに申し込んだのですがせきが舞台裏のようなところでとても残念でした。初めてのルアウショーで期待をしていたのですが。早くから行っていたのですがチケットの交換が優先ではなく順番だった人もいればもうすでに持っている人がいたりで案内もなくがっかりでした。席が外国人と日本人とにグループ分けがしてあったかんじでした。料理は美味しかったです。

On the day, it was quite windy and cold. The paper cups with drinks were being blown around quite a bit. Since everything was in English, I felt like I was just kind of looking at it... The fire dance was amazing. As for the food, it was just okay.
当日は風も強くて寒かったです。
飲み物の入った紙コップも結構飛ばされていました。
全て英語なのでなんとなく見ているという感じで・・・
ファイヤーダンスはすごかった。
食事はこんなののかな?くらいです。
Thank you for using Alan1.net.
We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the performances, such as the fire dance.
As you pointed out, the Waikiki Starlight Luau is held on an open rooftop, so please understand that there may be some wind from the building. Additionally, the event will be conducted in English, so it is primarily structured for you to enjoy as an audience.
The show program is available on the tour page, so please check it in advance.
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We look forward to serving you again.
