Paradise Cove Luau - Kapolei, Hawaii

I believe this is the best luau on the island. The atmosphere was wonderful. The show was great. The food was phenomenal! And the drinks were made well as well. It is a great place to go and enjoy your family atmosphere ton of activities to do beforehand.

If you were thinking about buying the VIP tickets, they are well worth it. The seats were great and the extras you get for being VIP as well worth it as well.

Don’t waste your money here! The aesthetics were on point, but that’s the easy part. They have parrots, which is cool, but the so-called “games” were pointless and boring. There was way too much going on before the show, leaving little time to actually enjoy anything. One of the biggest letdowns was a 15-minute segment about how they wear a certain type of fabric it was neither engaging nor entertaining. The entire experience felt like a cash grab with rushed performances. Once the crowd started losing interest, they finally brought out the fire, which was the only real highlight. Beyond the performances, the overall hospitality was lacking, no genuine interactions, no effort from the staff to engage guests apart for the performers. The food? Bland and forgettable. The bar service was painfully slow, even during the shows, with zero sense of urgency. If you’re looking for good pictures and videos, sure, this place delivers. But if you want an authentic, well paced, and enjoyable luau experience, look elsewhere, it’s not worth the price.

Extremely fortunate I was able to experience this. Staff on every level ranging from those who greeted us at the entrance us all the way to the dancers are passionate about what they do. You can tell easily that the dancers, band, and everyone else involved in the show are extremely prideful for their culture and it was a joy being able to experience that. Would recommend to anyone to visit this place 100 times out of 100.

This Luau was one of my most favorite I have been to. My daughter (10) loved all the activities before hand and the view was incredible. We paid the extra to include transportation and the bus ride there and back was a fun enjoyable experience as well. It could have been its own event. Our bus guide played fun songs that everyone sang along too. It was such a memorable night for me, my daughter and our extended family. I hope to come back to Paradise Cove soon! Oh and the pork was amazing but also plenty of options for my vegetarian daughter as well. Thank you so much!!

Wow what a beautiful experience. 100% recommend. This place is breath taking. There are different packages to choose from. They have a buffet and different activities such as taking pics with parrots and tribal tattooing. The food was good and the dancers/show was great. Check it out if your in the area

Can not review the rooms as we did not stay here- this review is on the show itself. I am not sure of the price as the BF paid but you do get 2 tickets each for drinks and the dinner buffet. You can walk around and shop or do oil painting and more. The show was amazing. The end is more of getting the guest in involved if that’s what you’re looking for. The actual show was very beautiful. It felt very authentic while they kept it interesting for the tourists. This part of the Island is for sure for those that wish (can afford) to stay in the pricier hotels. If you rent a car and stay across the island like we did the drive is enjoyable and I prefer that honestly.

Greeted with a smile, flower or shell leis and a drink. Lovely outdoor dining experience with the best luau performance with the beautiful ocean view! My grandsons were very impressed especially the 11year old. The all you can eat buffet was great with fish, chicken. Green salad, macaroni salads, desserts and more. Fun games, photos with parrots were all enjoyed. Recommend!

We almost skipped out on going to a luau on our recent trip to Hawaii, but we are so glad we went here. The food was excellent. The musicians were great and the dancers were so fun and very talented. The staff was kind. We had time at the beginning to wander around and play some games and get pictures and listen to music. It was just such a fun time. I definitely recommend getting the orchid lei too. It was beautiful and it smelled amazing. And location, location, location… What a beautiful sunset they have there. They even had some audience participation, which was fun.
