Review by Ky for Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

Never Again

We purchased this mainly so my aging mother could see the sunset over the water and experience some of the culture and history of Hawaii. There was was zero direction from any of the employees, we didn’t know where to go. This was advertised as a place to see the sunset while watching the luau. You can’t see the sunset because they put the stage right in between you and the view. And while we could have walked to the water while the sun was setting, this was the same time they told us to go to the buffet to get food. Glad we did because as soon as the last person sat down they cleared it out. The food left much to be desired, as did the drinks. There was very little culture, it almost felt like a parody and a tourist trap. I’ve been to other luaus that were so much better. We left early and I tried to give my drink cards away as they were unused, and NO ONE would take them, it was that bad. This whole island is this way. There is no longer any Polynesian culture, or none that we witnessed. This island has been given away. So sad for a place with such an amazing history. Go to Maui.
