Best Luau ever!

We had a most wonderful experience. Our hostess, Riley, was AWESOME! From the moment we checked in to the end of the event, she constantly checked in on us. Food was great and entertainment was top notch. Highly recommend.

PARADISE COVE LUAU
Noreen_S, Apr 2024
The show was great! We were treated as second class citizens because we purchased the standard tickets, not the premium tickets. Our tour guide was too bossy! We have been on many excursions and have not experienced so much attitude.
Entertaining good food, drinks & friendly service.
Raymond_D, Apr 2024
Pick-up & Dtop Off were timely. Excellent. The Bus Host, was very informative regarding certain sites & taught us Hawaiian greetings/ sayings. We were surrounded by breathtaking beauty at the site of the Luau. Gorgeous views of the sea, excellent spot for picture taking The food was excellent, loved the pulled pork, drinks are good, the show was outstanding.
Great experience the whole family can enjoy!
Jennifer_Z, Apr 2024
What a fun experience! Located near some lagoons and in a beautiful location with the ocean as your backdrop. Fun games and activities upon arrival, fun yet relaxed atmosphere. Great show and food. Everyone so friendly and welcoming with that Aloha spirit... Highly recommend! Mahalo!
Not worth the amount
Angela_G, Apr 2024
It was okay not what I thought it was going to be food was really cold and it took a long time just to eat not enough offers for drinks and no one assisted us or offered us anything we paid that much money and we didn't even have a server to clean up our area until we were ready to go very disappointing.
Great show, not so good on the food
Willard_J, Apr 2024
I am not sure I would recommend this event to others for the price we paid. I am aware traffic is out of your control, but we spent over one hour stuck in traffic from Honolulu to the event location. The tour guide was very good during that long ride. The weather was not conducive to the event being outside which again, I know you do not control. I was very disappointed with the quality and variety of the food at the event. The picture of the buffet on the website were not a true representation of what we received. The show was very good, but for the price we paid for two adults I expected a much better buffet.
It was a good luau. Very entertaining.
Renee_J, Apr 2024
The fire dancers were amazing. The setting was beautiful and all of the dancers were really good. I liked the music too. The dinner was ok, but the desserts very disappointing. I liked the tree climber and fllowers. Jr on the bus was very funny and kept us laughing.
Awesome performance!
Dana_B, Apr 2024
The ride there was very entertaining! Cousin Louie was great!! The food was amazing and the entertainment was even better. Wonderful show! We had the Deluxe package and it was worth it. We were right next to the stage and they serviced us our food. The show was awesome, very talented performers and great music! Highly recommend!
Best experience on the island
Nancy_P, Apr 2024
This was the best experience I have had on vacation. From the minute the bus picked us up from the time they dropped us off. I paid for the deluxe package- worth every penny! Front row seating- they bring the food to you- no standing inline at the buffet, and if we liked something they would bring us more. Food was excellent, the entertainment was out of this world. The activities were engaging and fun. Hands down would do this again. Advice for first timers wear your Hawaiian shirts and dresses. (I didn’t know this and kinda felt out of place but had fun anyway)
