Paradise Cove Luau

Paradise Cove Luau is one of those places where the setting does most of the talking and it speaks fluently. The oceanfront views are absolutely phenomenal, the kind that make you pause mid-conversation and just take it all in. Sunset over the water alone feels like part of the show. The food is good and satisfying, and the performances are genuinely entertaining, with enough energy, fire, and storytelling to keep both kids and adults engaged. It is clearly designed to be family-friendly, and they execute that well. There is a sense of ease here. No rushing, no pressure, just a well-paced evening that works for all ages. Now, the one hiccup: the drinks. They are on the expensive side, and the pours are wildly inconsistent. One cocktail might be decent, the next feels like a hopeful memory of alcohol. It is not a deal-breaker, but it is noticeable, especially given the price point. That said, Paradise Cove Luau delivers where it matters most: incredible views, good food, fun shows, and a welcoming atmosphere for families. Go for the scenery, stay for the experience, and maybe temper expectations at the bar. Overall, it is a great night out and a classic Oahu experience done right.

This is my first and probably last luau. Although the location is stellar and you're surrounded by lush beautiful greenery with a great view of the sunset, I was a little disappointed with the food. The food was mediocre at best. The chicken was a little overcooked. The pulled pork was okay. The fried fish was the best protein. The desserts disappeared pretty quickly. There were some preshow activities like throwing a spear and bowling. Numerous windows were open for serving adult beverages. The staff were all friendly. The show itself seems long in the wind with numerous dance routines of similar ilk. The chiefs doing their fire dances were excellent.

We didn't stay in the hotel but we went to the Luau and we had a great evening! The service and food was good. All you can eat. They offered drink Tickets to start as well. The show was very cool and scenery was second to none!

One of the best Hula Dances in Oahu. I booked our tickets with roundtrip from the hotel. We stayed at Alohilani and were picked up at the Hayatt Regency. The show was incredible. The food wasn't bad, but I feel like for the price I expected something better. But we still loved the event.

Took my family here while we were visiting. We got the deluxe package, and boy was it worth it. There were a lot of instructions given to the folks that purchased regular tickets. Everything was handled perfect for us. Cousin Fifi was awesome! Highly recommend striking a conversation up with him as it was a joy talking to him. Zina was part of the staff that assisted our table, and she was an absolute gem. We felt cared for, and right at home with her taking care of us.

My family and I had an incredible time here. Everything was so amazing; the land and views, the staff, the activities, the food, the performances. You can’t even begin to imagine how delicious the pork is. My husband stanned the man who danced with fire, we ended up seeing him on the way out where my husband approached him to tell him how great he thought he was 🤣he was so nice and talked to us for a bit. We would come back again and again if we could, we loved all our handsome and lovely cousins 🥰

We absolutely loved our experience at Paradise Cove Luau! The Orchid package was definitely worth it, as our seats were in the middle which offered a perfect view of the stage. We also opted for the transportation, and it was a great choice. The coach bus was comfortable, and our host, Mo, was fantastic. He was very attentive and kept everyone entertained on the ride to and from the venue. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a refreshing Mai Tai and a delicious buffet dinner. We had a great time participating in the Polynesian cultural activities and were especially captivated by the performances. I even earned a certificate in Polynesian dancing! Overall, we highly recommend Paradise Cove Luau for a fun and authentic experience.

Absolutely stunning setting for this Luau. Great service. Unfortunately its closing down at the end of the year. We are unsure but think this may have been why it was not as good of a show as one of us had experienced before. The games and photo opportunities were great but slight rushed.

A Must-Do Luau Experience Near Aulani! If you haven't been to this luau, add it to your list! The food is absolutely excellent -- I've gone three times already, and even though I keep telling myself I should try a different one, I always end up coming back. The views are breathtaking, and there's so much to enjoy from beginning to end -- from the warm welcome to the lively entertainment. There are so many activities throughout the evening, which makes it fun for everyone. The service is truly spectacular -- every staff member is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel like part of the 'ohana. It's the perfect mix of great food, beautiful scenery, and authentic Hawaiian hospitality. Highly recommend!

We choose the deluxe package! Entertainment and service were impeccable! The food I was disappointed in, for the deluxe package I feel that it should be a different menu. The reason why I choose this Luau is because of the location on the beautiful beach with the activities. And you can see the Aulani Resort next door. Our server who bought us our food she was great always on top of things.

Paradise Cove Luau was okay, but not what I expected for the price. The whole evening felt rushed, and I missed out on many activities. My daughter really wanted to take pictures with the birds when we first arrived, which took up all of our time, so we didn't get to enjoy much else before dinner started. On top of that, my husband was disappointed when he got an expired soda--not something you'd expect at an event this expensive. Another downside was the seating. The package we purchased had us waiting last for the buffet, which was frustrating. Had I known that, I would have paid extra for an upgrade. Overall, it was an "okay" experience, but I've heard there are better luaus out there, and if I had to do it again, I'd probably try a different one.

My family and I brought my boyfriend here for the first time since he was visiting from San Diego and never been to a luau before. We got the deluxe package and had a blast experiencing all of the cultural activities. I was hoping there would be some chicken long rice or lau lau but that was not the case for the dinner. The staff made up for the food though. Chasey-boi was our server for the night and he made sure our table was taken care of ! So sad this place will closing its doors but it will always have a special place in our hearts

Yesterday I attended the Paradise Cove Luau in Ko Olina at Kapolei, HI. My first but unfortunately the last time attending there as they will be closed down after 47 years. I had a great time there, the food and performances were great. Drinks that I chose were the non-alcoholic Fruit Punch Mai Tai, Pina Colada, and Lava Flow.

I thought this was a really good luau and value for your money. It was a super organized and fun filled night -They had a lot of different activities to do: jewelry stores, so many beautiful scenic sunset photo opportunities, taking pictures with the birds, henna art, spear throwing, and hula performance. -the dinner was surprisingly really good and we enjoyed the meal. While you're eating dinner, they put on a really good show of dancing and performances.

From start to finish, we had an amazing time! We got the Orchid Package (middle tier) and were greeting with an orchid lei and a mai tai. The Mai Tai was delicious! We then followed one of the team members to show us where to sit, once we were shown our seats, we headed towards the "tattoo" stations and games. We didn't get a chance to create a lei, but that's pretty much the only thing we weren't able to do. We saw the "flower shower" and the special ceremony before dinner. Before getting our dinner, we were able to take pictures by the sunset. I think the pictures don't do it justice! The area is so beautiful and well taken care of. Since we knew where to sit, we headed to the buffet! Food was great for an event like this. We had Kalua Pork, BBQ Chicken, and Beer Battered Fish. They also had sides like bread, Mac salad, rice, poi, and green salad. I also liked that people are able to get seconds. F you still have room after dinner, they also have chocolate cake, haupia, and fruit. During dinner they start a "preshow" where you see the talented ladies do some dancing. Once everyone has eaten, they turn off the lights and start the show. You see dances from Tahiti, Samoa, and more! It was so entertaining that even my one year old stayed still and watched. My recommendation, arrive before they open their doors so you can get the best seat possible, if you want to creat a lei, make that your first stop, and tip the team!

Amazing setting. I would return for the beach alone. Unfortunately, I hear the land has been sold in the lease not renewed so it will be going away soon. The food for the luau was pretty good, the staff was really kind and sweet. Felt a little bit rushed with the food, but I think that's the nature of the game and I believe they're trying to beat out the rain.

This is just one of the things you never go to when you're from here but is fun to do and experience when visitors come into town to give them the full tourist experience. Parking was easy, drinks upon arrival, and cute little information sessions/games to play before dinner. The musicians were wonderful and boy, do the dancers really have to play multiple roles throughout the night. Kudos to them. The food was very approachable hawaiian food, so nothing really crazy so that those experiencing hawaiian food for the first time would be okay. Not many people took poi, but I sure got in my fill! We went on a friday night and it was maybe 60% full, but I feel bad for the performers as the crowd was quite dull. They deserved much more applause than they got.

Absolutely amazing experience! Definitely a must do luau as it is much better than some others offered closer to Waikiki. Instructions for pick up were clear and our bus was very prompt. Our bus guide was Cousin T and she was awesome! Explained everything clearly and made each of us feel special and welcome. She told jokes and got us all excited for what was in store. Once we arrived, it was fun to walk around and take pictures. There were other activities too like spear throwing and Polynesian tattoos, which was fun. The bar also provided delicious cocktails. The food was also good. The pork and mac salad were delicious! Overall, the show was great. It moved at a good pace and we were never left bored as an audience. I loved seeing different performances based on the different Polynesian islands. It was truly beautiful. Sexy bus number 1! I highly recommend Paradise Cove if you are looking for a luau during your stay in Oahu!

Saturday, August 24, 2024 (RIP / HBD, Our Beloved Grandson Logan): Thanks to Tickets & Tours at Joint Base Hickam Pearl Harbor I was able to get Orchid seating in advance via email (Military discount of $123 each). We had a total of 13 vouchers for family with 4 more family members joining us there. There's a lot of parking and the staff is very friendly. Check in time was 4:45 pm. We were all given "credit cards" with $16 loaded on it to use toward any purchases. The grounds are clean and wide open. We were directed to our reserved table, which was located in the middle with a perfect view of the stage. There is shopping, tattooing, photos with the parrots, etc. Events for the entire family to enjoy! There is a nice beach on the property. Our family spread rose petals in honor of our 17 year old grandson, Logan, who passed away last year from Fentanyl poisoning. We all wore his shirts in his memory. It was a most spectacular sunset & we know he was there in spirit. Just before that a most wondrous rainbow appeared across the Hawaiian skies and we felt that Logan was sending us a sign that he knew his ohana was all together there for him on his birthday. We miss him so much! They opened the buffet in an orderly fashion and we all enjoyed the food; some got seconds. It was very tasty. We enjoyed the show. My battery died so I couldn't take more photos. Honestly, the most impressive were the two fire dancers! High energy and precision were the earmarks of their amazing performances. Neither one dropped a torch! The entire show was highly entertaining! As some had reservations about the dancers & musicians walking off from a previous show there was no sign of any squabbles. The show went on successfully without a hitch. We had an enjoyable experience and would recommend!

Best experience I've had on Oahu by far!! I've been to the islands many times, but not once have I gone to a luau. I came to this luau with my family to celebrate my sister's birthday and it's safe to say we all had the BEST time. There were so many activities to do and events to see. The dance performances were fantastic!! I absolutely loved seeing each and every performer dance and sing. My sister and I even got taken up on stage to dance with the performers. Everyone we came across was so welcoming and kind as well. I would say the food is good, but definitely not the highlight of this event. All of that credit goes to the workers and performers. I would absolutely come again.

This is our first ever Luau and I have to say it was a really amazing experience. I looked into different Luaus while we were in Hawaii and decided to go with Paradise Cove for our first Luau. We went with the Hawaiian Luau Package. On the day of event, we came a little late due to a bit of heavy traffic. We didn't miss much, and there were still plenty of parking! Once we arrived they guided us on where to go. We were provided with complimentary mai tais and then our leis. We were then taken to our seats so that we know where to go once dinner was ready. Hubby and I walked around and enjoyed the scenery and then went to explore and do some activities. It's such a beautiful place and the food honestly was really delicious! We both really enjoyed it and loved the music and entertainment during out time there. Will definitely keep Paradise Cove in mind, but wouldn't mind trying other Luaus for future visits.

The experience was amazing . If you're in Hawaii this is a place to visit . There are many luau around the island. The staff were so amazing and helpful. We got the top package and was walked to our table and had our doodle and drinks brought to us. The place sits surrounding water with beautiful views. The food was good and we got to see the pig get brought out from under after cooking . The show was amazing , of course my Fabian was the fire part of the show. I definitely recommend!

Good show right on the beach scenery is beautiful right in koolina near the aulani hotel there also shops you can shop at workers are very helpful

It was such an amazing experience! Especially all my family came down from the mainland and enjoy the show! The food was amazing and delicious! The services were awesome with great aloha! The ambience was just right! I definitely recommend!

The 3rd time I went to paradise cove and this time with my husband and 3 boys. I love Hawaii and we have been married for 16 years and my husband surprised us with the visit. We both have been to Hawaii, but not with each other and now we're back and I was happy to have my kids and husband go to Paradise Cove with me. I love it because it's very authentic. The people are very welcoming the hula dancers and the fire dancers as well my children were amazed, and it gave us that Hawaiian vibe. Also, we loved our bus driver Cousin T. She was pretty amazing. I told her we would give her a good review thanks again paradise Cove for making our Hawaii vacation a blast will be back again. I'm so glad you are still open after all these years. The last time I went to paradise Cove was 1998 and then 2004 and it still as wonderful as ever! Mahalo

Booked the experience through Tripster little cheaper. It was fun, ambiance and venue was great, I felt like there were too many activities to do, and long lines to get to each one. Food was alright nothing special, the best was the last show that they left for the end. Overall ok, but wouldn't go to do it again.

This luau came highly recommended, but we were disappointed. The pork was good, but that and the pineapple were the only things that stood out. The rolls were also good I guess. The rest of the food was bland and the desserts were terrible. The entertainment was OK, it got good at the end with the fire dancers and the closing dances. But the early entertainment was pretty boring. They also overpack the seating area, making it difficult to see if there is a tall or wise person in front of you. A more elevated stage would help.

Was very entertaining! The performers far Exceeded my expectations. The food was good, not great but the buffett was very efficient. I loved the Hula Dancers

We ended up coming here for my mom's birthday and we truly enjoyed ourselves. The different activities they had were cool. The staff were nice. Even with a few mishaps that happened on the show, the saying that the show must go on was true! They dancers were great and lively! The food was pretty good as well! The desserts were alright!

We arrived early to Paradise Cove Luau to guarantee the best seats possible. The space was beautiful, and they had plenty of activities to enjoy before the main show--I highly recommend the canoe ride. The food was just okay. I've been to many luaus in the past and this would be on the lowest end in terms of food and drink. The chicken and pork were a highlight, while the "beer battered fish" tasted like egg and was close to inedible. The show itself was disjointed and had too many breaks. The dancers were very talented, but it felt like they were off stage as much as they were on stage. This might be a good choice for a first luau, but I wouldnt recommend it if you've been to others before.

Nice luau. There was definitely some downtime between getting there and the show. There were some games and photo ops. The food was decent and the entertainment wasn't too long.

The luau was amazing and the experiences were great. Only complaint was paying over $550 to have my back to the luau. Would do again but not pay extra for deluxe seats if I knew our backs would be to the stage.

I don't care to write negative reviews and since this Luau experience will be closing permanently, I'll keep this one light. For the price, it wasn't worth it. An interesting experience, but no where near premium or deluxe. The food and service was just okay. I did enjoy the fire performance. Like anything YMMV.

Absolutely loved this experience! The people were so stinking nice here. The view was absolutely spectacular! Once the food came out I was super hungry and it all tasted phenomenal. The pork was the best part of it all. The dancers were incredible and so talented. I can't wait to come back!

When in Hawaii, you do the tourist thing and this luau was one of them. Since I was gifted this event, i don't wanna put a damper on it. The place is nice and the ocean views are fantastic. The luau itself was mediocre. The food was just okay, nothing too fancy. The show was an additional bonus and the hula and fire dancers were good. I was expecting a more traditional type of luau and this wasn't it. But I still had a good time.

Cost for basic package: $150 There's a lot to do once they let you inside, most of the activities are complimentary with a choice of tip. There was a woman who made leis around your wrist, so I got one of those since the basic package doesn't give you a lei around your neck. The basic package give you shells around your neck. I also ended up getting a temporary tattoo which was cool, there was also a free kayak ride. There were a bunch of other activities but once the show began I was mesmerized by the women and men, they looked absolutely gorgeous in their outfits. The dance was beautiful and the fire dancers were amazing.

My wife and I got the deluxe package. And in my opinion it was not worth it. The performance and staff are great. The food was just barely average. Since everyone eats the same food, just get the basic package. The perks of the deluxe package is not worth the extra $$

So for starters, I have attended multiple luau's on Oahu and frankly, this is not worth the money. There is a laundry list of things about this luau that makes it so commercialized that it's not even fun to attend. They are just strictly capitalizing on tourist ignorance. The only good thing about this place is some of the pictures of the west side of the island that you can get. So onto the luau itself, there are numerous events/games you can do prior to the actual show starting, which is OK but again geared towards pushing sales. Like the nonstop, pushing of the gift shop or bar. The little games or the photo area with the birds are all a little too much. However, with that all being said, I understand why they do it now because the show itself was a joke. By no means do I blame the performers which were good, but I do blame the directors of the show. For the life of me, I have no clue why these guys have been so highly rated. The only thing I could think of is that unfortunately other tourists have not been able to experience a different luau. The food was OK as you can tell it was all prepped. It literally felt like I was just watching a one-man show, especially having the "mc" singing every couple minutes obviously trying to be the star of the show. In good conscience, I cannot recommend these guys or this show until something changes. However, we both know that it won't because why give a good show when you could push sales to tourist that have no better understanding. Without naming names there's another luau literally 10 minutes down the road, smaller, and 100 times better of a show.

Food good, entertainment and history good. The pig ceremony is just that, fake pig. No way you feed 500 people with a 3'-4' pig.

Save your time and save your money. Food wasn't good. Ambiance was way below average for Luau's. Everyone was friendly and the dancers did a good job. The fire dancers were VERY disappointing. Might be okay for someone's first luau, but if you have been to others on different islands... this is NOT the one.

Booked as a solo traveler and had a great time! Did the basic package with pickup and drop off included. Got on the bus and met the host who went over the plan. Luau was wonderful; performers, things to do, good food, and people

Beautiful grounds, plenty of activities for the family and a wonderful show. We got the deluxe package and it was well worth the price paid. Front row seats and table service. They had a nice variety of salads, main dishes and deserts. Will definitely be going again.

10/10 must do! It's worth every penny! Make sure you plan accordingly for the time. I missed a lot of events I paid for due to not realizing I needed to be there earlier. Plenty of party is available. The earlier you get there the better the parking. Upon arrival we were greeted with Lei's, our picture taken and given a tour as we were taken to our seats. Our server was amazing. I purchased the deluxe stage luau. It included our food and drinks brought to us at the table. You can just tell your server what you would like throughout the show and he/she will bring it. The food and drinks were great! The drinks are strong which made it greater. I loved the show and the amazing performers! To put the icy on my night I was even called up on stage. To perform a dance with the dancer. There is a gift shop available as well for you to purchase souvenirs. I will be returning to do a full package next time. Best Luau on the Island! Go deluxe it's worth every penny!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Paradise Cove Luau. We drove ourselves there in our own rental car and arrived about 5:15 but it was no problem that we started a little late. We did the lei making, Polynesia tattoo and we got to see a monk seal swim up to the beach as we were waiting in the tattoo line. We got sunset photos with the fire dancers (took our own photos but you can buy the professional ones if you want). The buffet (all you could eat) was delicious with plentiful options. The show was fabulous-the dancers did an outstanding job and there were audience participation sections that were great. The highlight of the show was the fire dancers and they were incredible. We purchased the mid-range tickets and sat directly down the middle from the front of the stage but even the less expensive seats on the sides would have been worth every cent. I highly recommend this luau if you are looking for quality.

I loved all the places I visited in Hawaii except the Paradise Cove Luau. The only reason I have a two-star rating for this place is for Dee at the front gate. She is excellent. Besides that, the entire experience at Paradise Cove Luau is one of the worst on this trip. The show is boring. The buffer food is one of the worst I have eaten in my life. How can they charge so much money and have the food so bad? I don't think I want to see another Luau in Hawaii anymore after this bad experience!

The entire space is gorgeous. You get a clear view of the Hawaiian sky against the blue water bordered by the greenery in Paradise Cove. It's such a beautiful panorama to behold as you eat native food while taking in their culture. The food is alright. They take each table to the buffet area (and you can return as many times as you'd like). There is so much of everything but my favorites were the kahlua pork and the macaroni salad. The alcoholic drinks were delicious too - and compared to Los Angeles, priced really well. The seating was problematic. They squeeze in families next to each other to maximize space, but for $175 per head, I would have hoped for more room. I get that it's all supposed to feel like one big ohana, but having loud, messy toddlers (with parents who refused to soothe them) seated next to me ruined the vibe a little. The dances were beautiful but I wish there was some sort of a primer on what the dance moves or the costumes or the headdresses all signified. I was hungry for information about the culture but maybe this was asking for too much because they did a lot in the three hours allotted for the luau. Service was impeccable. Servers took away dirty dishes and happily obliged us whenever we asked them to take our family photos. They were also very patient answering questions they've probably been asked so many times (what is poi? What is lilikoi?) I'd recommend this luau for anyone who wants to get delicious, authentic Hawaiian food, entertainment and a gorgeous view at a good price.

The luau was extremely not worth it for the price. I really regret blocking out a huge chunk of my time just to come here. Upon entering, we were greeted with alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. One cup per person. Then, we received some beaded leis. The workers only gave certain ladies hibiscus flowers to wear in their hair, so it was weird that they excluded others. There was a nice area that overlooked the ocean with professional photographers stationed there. You can still take your own pictures, of course, which is what I and a bunch of other people opted to do. One rude photographer asked me to move as if I didn't also pay to enter and take pictures. The photographer could've repositioned her own camera. Other than take pictures, there really wasn't much to do before dinner. We caught some hula dancing, the showcasing of the pig, saw someone climb a palm tree, and threw a stick at a target. All that probably only took 30 minutes and the activities were nothing to write home about. The ticket that we bought included a $20 voucher for each person. So we felt pressured to spend it all before the dinner and performance started. The lines for the drinks were HELLA long, so we went to the souvenir shop. There weren't a lot to choose from... even the ABC stores in Waikiki have better products. And the "prices" were hiked up. We noticed that people were lining up to get food from the buffet when we were still in the souvenir shop so we hastily grabbed a tote bag, haupia mix, and something else that I can't remember. We went to get our food and was sad to see that there wasn't much variety to choose from. We made sure to get the kalua pig because that was one of their selling points. Sadly, the food was probably the worst we've had during our whole time in Hawaii. We ended up not finishing most of what we had on our plate. The annoying part was that we were carrying our trays of food looking for seats and then realized that everyone else got assigned seats except us. I was so annoyed by the disorganization and the need to wait about 10 minutes for a worker to assign us seats. It would've been better if they just let people sit wherever they want because can you really assign 200+ people?? Anyway, the performances started and I couldn't help but yawn. I was waiting for the fire show the whole night but that only lasted about 5-10 minutes. The smartest thing that we did was leave a bit earlier to beat the traffic. TLDR; Did I really pay $280 for 2 tickets?? Much regret.

Wow, I'm a bit surprised about the current reviews. We went and had a good time. Our friends bought the upgraded deluxe package which included alcohol, an elevated VIP Royal box seating area where the food was brought to us, mai tai's, lei greeting, and a $20 gift card to spend at the gift store etc, pictures and a Paradise cove bag. It was totally worth it. My little girl had so much fun! She even went on stage with her friend and was able to learn a few hula moves.

So wifey say we haven't done A Luau together this is our adventure to this highly tauted venue and eatery. I love the fact that transportation to the venue can be arranged to pick you up at key locations taking the stress of driving out of the equation so you can focus on filling your stomach. There was a lot going on vendors shops and the bars were lined up with many patrons to enjoy libations and cuisine. Our server brought our salads followed by our entree of pork, two types of chicken and fish all somewhat traditional in choice the atmosphere was filled with the sounds of the Pacific at all time what a energized operation the people were beautiful and kind which is reflective of the island worth going to see and enjoy....

The food was good and affordable! Our server Cindy was excellent! We went for lunch and enjoyed our peaceful and beautiful surroundings. A hidden gem !

We had an incredible time !! 10/10 recommend!! Some of the nicest people I have ever met and they were incredibly wonderful to my son !!! Mahalo

This was an amazing show. The location is so beautiful. It's a bit of a drive from Waikīkī and we got caught in a lot of traffic. It was well worth it. The workers were so friendly and efficient. We were seated quickly and got our food quickly. The food was delicious. The singers and dancers were incredible. The band was awesome. Very fun. The sunset was incredible. The fire dancers really made the show.

- for the show - for food and service. We were one of the last tables to be escorted to the buffet tables and as we were plating our food, the workers were taking away the serving utensils and packing away the rest of the food. We had to go searching around to the other buffet tables for whatever is left. My favorite was the purple sweet potato and the pineapple.

This was such an amazing night! The entire crew from service, music, dancers, everyone was incredible! The food was delicious. The amazing dancers! I was just blown away. Thank you for an unforgettable evening. Mahalo Ohana

The show was absolutely amazing! We all loved it. We purchased the pictures and were so glad we did since they came out beautiful. The food was not liked by anyone in our group. We paid extra for the Royal Seating and our food was cold and not tasty. Our seats were perfect with the stroller since we had plenty of room. Our server was attentive and friendly.

I highly recommend this luau. My 18 year old son and I were very impressed with the organization, talent, and variety of activities and performances that were offered. Our tour guide on our bus was "Cousin Lui (Louis)?". She was so amazing, made everyone comfortable and worked so hard to ensure everyone was having a nice time. I am surprised of those reviews that complained about the food. This is an outdoor "picnic style" dinner where the main dish was barbequed in the ground. That may not appeal to everyone, but there was food for everyone. What stood out to me is how hard everyone worked to ensure that their guests (ohana) had a wonderful time. Well done. Highly recommend. Don't miss it. p.s. We didn't purchase the "best seating". You can see/hear from anywhere and meet alot of nice people.

DO NOT waste your time and money here. I'm convinced that the 5 star reviews are posted by Paradise Cove themselves or people who live under a rock the other 364 days a year. This place was a complete sham from start to finish. We paid $900 for a family of 4 so I'm not sure where the $150/ PP comes from. I think we got the "Deluxe" package. This package included gift cards which covered 4 adult drinks, better seating, and table service. Super cheap plastic chairs and crammed tables. It was immediately clear to me that this place is past its prime and a cash grab. Overly commercial and people pushing you to spend money. The food was disgusting and entertainment was mediocre at best. Drinks were awful and weak. Everything was pre-mixed out of a soda gun. The only redeeming fact was you do get a beautiful lei when you arrive. We attended the Aulani luau 2 nights earlier for the same price and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii. Night and day difference.
