Paradise Cove Luau Features
Standard Luau
Upon arrival you are warmly greeted with a shell lei and a Mai Tai cocktail. Paradise Cove sprawls over twelve acres of the most beautiful oceanfront scenery on O'ahu so feel free to gaze at the ocean and enjoy the tropical breezes while you relax and unwind. The entertainment is just getting started as you are invited to take a journey back in time to the historical days of Hawaiian village life and to participate in traditional games and crafts. Learn the Hawaiian skill of Hukilau by helping to pull the fishing net in from the ocean. Marvel at a demonstration of coconut tree climbing, and enjoy the vivid colors of plumeria blossoms as they shower down upon you. Take a seat in the amphitheater for the dramatic Imu ceremony as the Royal Court in traditional attire enters and oversees the unearthing of the roasted kalua pig.
Deluxe Luau
The Paradise Cove Deluxe Luau is not only the best luau experience on O'ahu, but also the most luxurious evening the islands can offer. From the moment you arrive through to the end of the evening you are treated like Hawaiian Royalty on the beautiful grounds of Paradise Cove at the Koolina Resort’s oceanfront venue. With twelve acres to explore you will not be enchanted by your evening steeped in the rich Hawaiian culture and Ohana (family) tradition. Upon arrival you are treated to a flower lei greeting, refreshing Mai Tai cocktail, and complimentary souvenir arrival photo. Spend some time enjoying the Hawaiian village with its opportunities to participate in traditional crafts and games.
Orchid Buffet Luau
If a luau is high on your list of things to do in Hawaii, then a Paradise Cove Orchid Buffet Luau is the perfect way to make your vacation a trip to remember. Paradise Cove is located on the rocky coastline of Waianae, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. Sea breezes, spectacular sunsets, and the smell of plumeria blossoms greet you as you start your luau adventure. Upon arrival you are welcomed with a flower lei and a refreshing Mai Tai cocktail. Stroll through the traditional Hawaiian Village and enjoy cultural activities of arts and crafts, games of skill, and a coconut tree climbing demonstration. Volunteer to join others in the Hukilau ceremony and pull in the fishing nets from the sea as Hawaiian villagers have done for so many years. In the amphitheater, be awed by the pageantry of the Royal Court in full traditional dress as they enter for the unearthing of the kalua pig from the Imu pit (underground steam oven) where it has been cooking since early morning.
