It was very sophisticated, and the children were able to have a fun time without getting bored. The food was delicious, and there were many drink options, which I thought was great. The situation at the Royal Hawaiian was excellent.

Last time, I was so impressed that I signed up again, but the meals that were previously served at the table changed to a buffet style, and the content of the show was also lacking. I think it's time to graduate from this place.

I've participated in luaus multiple times, and in just two hours, you can learn about Hawaii's history through an engaging show. An elderly American couple from the mainland celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary and came on a commemorative trip with their daughter and her husband. The husband raised his hand to report this to the host, and everyone congratulated them—typical of America! But I think there were only about two other Japanese couples besides us? We forgot that we were foreigners (laughs).
何度もルアウに参加していますが、2時間でハワイの歴史が分かる、そして飽きないショーの展開、お隣のメインランドからいらしたアメリカ人の老夫婦は、結婚45年記念に、娘さんご夫婦と記念旅行に来られたそうで、司会者に旦那様が手を挙げて報告、皆んなでおめでとうの嵐、流石アメリカだ!でも日本人は私達以外には2組ぐらいだったかな?私達が外人なのを忘れていました(笑)

Had a great time at the Royal Hawaiian luau this week. It was much more than simply hula dancing and a fire show. The performances were short acts telling the story of the Hawaiian culture and history through song and dance. I could feel the passion for Hawaii in the host of the evening as he was setting the scene for each act. Interestingly, he was one of the actors in the original Hawaii 5.0!
Before the show started, it was fun to learn and actually see the process of how Hawaiian people made the material for their clothing. It was actually made of out sticks!
Food was plentiful and tasty with lots of variety. Highly recommended experience. The setting was beautiful on the lawn with the beach and an amazing view of Diamond Head in the background. A very special evening!

What a wonderful evening. Perfect location, beach front right at the heart of Waikiki, with a beautiful views from Diamond Head. The Royal Hawaiian Hotel is the most tradition hotel in Waikiki, the staff is very friendly and always ready to help you.
Before the dinner and the show start you can learn more about Hawaiian traditions. The buffet has a big variety of dishes and the food was very tasty. The drinks were very good too.
The storytelling of the show is very interesting they talk about Hawaiian history starting when the first Polynesians arrived, passing by the Royalty time and until it became the 50th state. The dancers and the singers are fantastic!
Great evening under the starts, good food and friends. I would definitely come back again and I I recommend Aha Aina Luau to everybody!

I made a reservation for the premium seats and attended with my daughter. It seemed that the seats were predetermined, as we were guided to a seat overlooking the diamond bed at the front row of the stage when we handed over the voucher at the reception. We shared a table with a 50-year-old American woman who was attending alone and a large Chinese family, and it was enjoyable to communicate in broken English. The atmosphere of the oceanfront garden at the Royal Hawaiian was fantastic, and the buffet had a wide variety of dishes that were quite delicious. The price is high, but I recommend it for those who want to enjoy the show in an elegant setting.
プレミア席で予約を取り、娘と二人で参加しました。
席はあらかじめ決まっていたようで、レセプションでバウチャーを渡すと舞台最前列のダイヤモンドベッドを臨む席に案内されました。
一人で参加していた50代のアメリカ人女性と中国人の大家族と同じテーブルだったのですが、カタコトの英語で交流をしたのも楽しかったです。
会場のロイヤルハワイアンのオーシャンフロントの庭の雰囲気は最高で、バイキングのお料理も品数が多くそれなりに美味しかったです。

The main purpose of this trip was to finally see the Royal Hawaiian Luau show, which I had to sadly forgo during my last visit to Hawaii due to not being able to make a reservation.
Among all the luau shows I've seen, this one had the content I wanted to see the most, and the dancing was wonderful. (I personally take hula lessons, so I wanted to see the dancers up close and observe their movements and steps!)
Typically, when comparing the ratio of hula to Tahitian dance in luau shows, there tends to be more Tahitian. However, this show had a higher proportion of hula (both Kahiko and Auana), making it a must-see for hula dancers. The outdoor setting, with Diamond Head and the ocean as the backdrop, was also fantastic.
I would love to go again! However, since the interactions and story are presented in English, a good command of the language is essential...
前回、ハワイに行った際に予約が取れず、泣く泣く断念したロイヤルハワイアンのルアウショーを見に出かけるのが、今回の旅の1番の目的でした。
今まで見てきたルアウショーの中で一番、自分自身が見たかった内容で踊りも素晴らしかったです。(自分自身がフラを習っており、ダンサーの踊る姿やステップを踏む姿が間近で見たかったのです!)
普通、ルアウショーだとフラとタヒチアンの割合を比較するとタヒチアンの方が多いのですが、こちらはフラの割合(カヒコ・アウアナ)が高く、フラダンサーには必見な内容だと思います。
屋外で、かつダイヤモンドヘッドと海を背景なんて、ロケーションも素晴らしかったです。
また見に行きたいと思います!
しかしながら…英語で会場のやり取りやストーリーが展開されるので、語学力が必須かと。。。

The history of Hawaii was tastefully and elegantly done. The fire dancer was totally awesome. The chance to meet the cast after the performance was great, it allowed me to connect with them on a personal basis.
For those of use who prepaid for the deluxe accommodations the check in process was not good. There was no express check in. I had to stand in line with everyone else who had not prepaid and who was not purchasing the deluxe package! So the check in process totally circumvented what I paid for. Yes, I got to sit closer to the stage and got a different lei but that was it. So I don't know that the deluxe price was worth it.

The Aha 'Aina luau provides the ultimate luxury luau experience in the comfort and proximity of Waikiki. Located in the famous Pink Palace of the Pacific, Aha 'Aina doesn't disappoint. The views and outdoor seating are a beautiful backdrop to the evening. The meal is served with musical entertainment and a historical introduction of how the guitar and ukulele were introduced to the islands. This is a great luau for those who love great music and tasty food! The table service is wonderful and the food is excellent. The history of Waikiki comes alive on stage as the dancers take you through time from when Kamehameha united the islands, to the Royal Hawaiian hotel's first opening in 1927. Get ready for a treat, because this is not only a feast for your taste buds, but your eyes and ears as well!

I made a reservation because I wanted my mother, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time for our wedding, to see something truly Hawaiian. Since I booked a standard reservation, we arrived 30 minutes early to line up for seats. We were second in line, so we were shown to a good seat. It was a special night at the only ocean view outdoor stage in Waikiki. The fire dance was amazing. My mother dressed up and said she really felt like she was in Hawaii, which made me very happy. She was delighted when she was stopped by one of the performers when she returned from the restroom. The food was also delicious.

This was my second time participating. The last time (two years ago) was really great, so I joined again. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, it was held indoors, which was a bit disappointing. The fire dance was the only part that took place outside, but the wind was strong, and it was unfortunate to see the dancer getting the flames on their body and face. Since it was my second time, and almost everything was the same as last time, I don't think I want to participate again. However, it did create good memories in Hawaii. I go to Hawaii every year, so I hope more new shows will be added.

前回(二年前)がとっても良かったので、再度参加
あいにく悪天候で室内での開催となってしまい、少し残念でした

I took my seat at 5:30 PM, but the female host was dragging on with a talk show-like format until the show started, which was boring. Additionally, there were several downpours during the event, and the response for towels and umbrellas was slow, leaving us soaked... Of course, the dishes were also wet... It was disappointing that, despite reserving a high-priced seat, the meal was served later on.
The hula dance show was fantastic. It was great. However, I feel that the Hilton, which hosts events every Friday, had better food, shows, and staff service.
17時半から席に着きましたが、ショーが始まるまで女性の司会がダラダラとトークショーのような感じで時間を繋いでいたのが退屈でした。また、途中スコールが何度も降りましたが、タオルや傘の対応が遅く、びしょびしょに・・・。食器も当然びしょびしょ・・・。高い席を予約したのに、食事も後の方に出てきたのが残念せした。
フラダンスショーは最高でした。良かったですよ。

I read the reviews in advance and reserved the premium seats with less waiting time. On the day of the event, there were fewer participants, so it wasn't much different from the general seating. Since it was a round table, some people couldn't see the stage. The food was "meh," but the show was wonderful. Since it takes place in the courtyard of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, it was a valuable experience considering the location.
事前に投稿を読んで、待ち時間が少ないプレミア席を予約しました。当日は参加人数が少なかったのか、あまり一般席と変わりなかったです。円卓のテーブル席なのでステージを見れない方がいました。

The only thing missing from this Luau was the traditional pig in the ground, but the gourmet menu included pork ribs and seafood, not to mention unlimited drinks. The show was excellent. The grandmother's soothing voice-over and gentle music set a wonderful stage for the dancing and costumes. All live, of course. The historic Royal Hawaiian Ocean lawn has a view of the sea and Diamond Head. The tables and chairs were comfortable. The program explained the food in detail. If you don't want to head to another Oahu coast, this is the luau for you.

I went to see the show with my 9-year-old daughter who is learning hula. According to reviews, it was mostly Japanese people, but perhaps it was just a coincidence, as there were hardly any Japanese attendees. We splurged on premium seats, so we were able to watch the show right in front of the stage, which was truly wonderful. The performance was full of excitement. The content included dances and songs that conveyed the history of Hawaii, and it was so engaging that we were captivated the entire time. However, my daughter and I wanted to see more hula and Tahitian dance, so I deducted one star for that. Still, I think it's the best show to recommend for those who are tired of regular dance performances. Not only the show but also being able to enjoy the luxurious backdrop of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach was amazing.
フラを習っている9歳の娘と二人で見に行きました。口コミでは、日本人ばかり、という話でしたが、たまたまなのか、日本人はほとんどいませんでした。奮発してプレミア席にしたのでステージの前でショーを見れて、本当に良かったです。迫力満点です。内容は、ハワイの歴史をおいながらのダンスあり、歌ありと盛りだくさんで、飽きることなくずっと釘付けでした。ただ、娘と私は、フラとタヒチをしっかり見たかったので、そこだけが★ひとつマイナスにしました。だけど、普通のダンスショーに飽きた人には、一番勧められるショーだと思います。ショーもだけど、ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキビーチの景色をぜいたくにも背景として見れるなんて。最高です。

We made our reservation (premium seats) 6 months previously and were seated at the far right table. Some of the people with regular seats had better views than our seats. Although we enjoyed it a lot it would of been nice to have the center tables to the stage especially for the premium price we paid.

We had a wonderful evening at the Royal Hawaiian Luau!!! Beautiful hotel and grounds (took my breath away when we pulled up in the taxi) and beautiful evening. We were the very last ones to arrive (someone stole our taxi!) and I was very upset fearing that we would be seated in the rear. I had paid for the premium seats (forgot I did that, and recommend doing so), however, and they walked us right up to our front row table. It was fabulous. The food was wonderful and authentic, not too much to make us feel stuffed, and not too little that we were hungry after dinner. The entertainment was fantastic, we especially enjoyed the woman doing the emceeing (I'm sorry, I forget her name), the fire dancer and the woman playing Wipe Out on the yukelele. What a terrific night. The entertainment was first rate, the night beautiful, and the drinks were lovely and yummy! We highly recommend. Photos are from my phone, so not the best quality.

We attended the family gathering the night before my second son's wedding. The meal was a proper course dinner, and the luau was of quite high quality, leaving everyone very satisfied. When I told the host of the show that I was getting married the next day, he introduced me to everyone, and I received applause and blessings from them. It seems to have become an unforgettable memory for the couple.
I was thinking of leaving feeling very satisfied, but when I went to pick up the photos taken by the photographer, I was charged $20. Since it was free two years ago, I felt quite disappointed.
Aside from this, it was a wonderful luau, so I recommend it. However, please note that it only takes place on Mondays.

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 had a great time. Perhaps because it was crowded during the summer season, I thought I would have a seat a bit closer... I think the show would have been even more enjoyable if I understood English. I wonder if it's easier to get seats if you arrive early? The food was delicious and served as a course. I enjoyed chatting with an elderly couple at the same table, and the time flew by. It was a fun experience since shows like this are quite rare in Japan.
いい時間を過ごしました。夏のシーズンで混んでるためなのか、もう少し前の席かと思ったのですが、、、英語がわかるともっと楽しいショーだったと思います。なるべく早く行った方が席は取りやすいのかな?料理もコースで美味しく頂きました。同じテーブルの年配夫婦とお話しながらで時間もあっという間でしたね。日本ではなかなか無いショーなので楽しかったです。
