My mother and I got to Oahu Dec 2018 to visit with my sister who just happened to live nearby and right across from the Temple. We spent an entire day at the PCC and it was the most fantastic thing we have ever seen. I honestly believe if anywhere in the world I would encourage anyone to visit, this would be the top of the list.

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

Absolutely agree. We can't wait to go back and experience more of the island. Does your sister still live there? What a great excuse for you to keep going back to visit more. :) -Brian

[@rallyguy132321]

Great job on the video, thank you! Was there about 16 years ago when we pulled into Pearl Harbor and went to the dinner show. I didn't realize there was so much there to do. Will plan on spending a whole day there soon.

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

Thanks so much. Have fun at PCC - it's such an amazing place. We actually didn't get to Pearl Harbor when we were on the island. Next time, that'll be our top priority. -Brian

[@sotrusty]

From your notes in the description, I am assuming you got the Ali'i Luau package. Which says the dining is @ 4pm with seating at 3:30. How does that work? Do they do the luau show for each seating or do the earlier seatings have to sit around & wait for the show that happens after the later times are seated? Or do you eat & then come back later for the show?

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

Yes, we bought the Ali'i luau package. Seating starts at 3:30 (which is when we got there so we could secure the best seats - they're first come, first served). The show starts at 4pm and goes for about an hour. Then they clear everyone out and they do a second luau and show at 6pm for the people who paid slightly more (the Ambassador packages). The night show, Ha, starts at at 7:30. Since the villages close at 6pm, this means you'll have to kill an hour and a half if you go to the earlier luau. That's why the later luau is a little more convenient - you can spend the whole day in the villages, then do the luau and eat after the villages close, then go straight to the Ha show. But that wasn't worth the extra $25 for us. -Brian

[@sotrusty]

@@PerfectLittlePlanet ah. Thank you so much for the info! Very helpful.

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

You're welcome. Have a great time!

[@Scooptris]

@@PerfectLittlePlanet So what is there to do if the villages close at 6 and the show isnt until 7:30?

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

There are a few things to do during that time. The marketplace is still open, so you can shop and listen to the live music. You can take the tram over to the Mormon Temple and BYU Hawaii - the landscaping is beautiful and the visitor center is interesting. You can also leave, grab a bite to eat and watch sunset on the beach, and then come back for the show. -Brian

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

The marketplace is called the Hukilau Marketplace, it's right when you walk into the PCC and it's open to the public (you don't have to have a ticket to go to the Marketplace). We were there 6 years ago so I'm not sure what the place was called or if it's still there. Looking at the map, there's an Elsie's Smoothie Shack that doesn't look familiar, but I imagine that'd be the place if you want to get it.

Oh, that’s a great offer! Thank you so much!

[@maigoff5725]

There are several packages, which one do you recommend?

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

We recommend the Alii Luau package. I know it's a lot of money, but this gives you access to the luau which is (from what we've read) one of the best luaus in all of Hawaii. We really loved it - the food, the show, the ambiance, everything. The package has also changed a bit since we went. Now it includes 3 days access instead of 2, and you also get a canoe ride included, so that's cool.

[@nrich0494]

Hey how are you doing guys. Quick question what package did you guys get? I just looked for tickets and a lot of the selections are sold out until September! I was wondering if its worth buying the other type of packages that are left over.

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

We did the "Exclusive Ali'i Luau Package." Honestly, I'd say whatever package you end up with is worth the cost. The islands are so interactive and fun, so that's worth $70 to play in all of those for a couple days (tickets are good for two days). Or if you're going in August, you can still get the Gateway Buffet package, which includes the buffet and entry to Ha: Breath of Life, and the two of those combined are worth the extra $70 you'd pay on top of the Islands package.

[@berthasoto4165]

Hello can I ask you which package did you purchase for the PC. In Hawaii?

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

We did the Ali'i luau package and felt it was the best package for us.

[@seutatia]

We are so excited to go there, love your video! My only question is.. which package did you purchase for this tour? I was a little confused in reading the options.. we want to get the tour of each island as well as the buffet at the end.

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

We did the "Exclusive Ali'i Luau Package." The luau/buffet is actually lunch. You've got two choices for lunch - "Gateway Buffet" is just the food and music, or the Ali'i Luau is the show we went to in the video. The HA: Breath of Life show is in the evening. And there's not an actual tour of the islands - you wander around wherever you'd like. They give you a schedule of the various shows and you make your own plan. -Brian

On the North Shore, we stayed in a condo on Turtle Bay Resort's property (www.airbnb.com/rooms/13751844).

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

The villages are open from noon to 5:30, the Luau is at 4 or 6 (depending on your tickets - the 6pm is more expensive so we did the 4pm show), Ha starts at 7:30 and goes for 90 minutes. We were there from noon to 9pm the first day, then from 1:30 to 4:30pm the next day. So all in all, we spent 12 hours there. We have a 1-yr old now and I doubt we could do that with him, since he'd need naps. Good luck! You can check here for more info: www.polynesia.com/faq/hours-of-operation/#day-experience

Which admission package did you guys choose? Is it worth upgrading?

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

We bought the Ali'i luau package, which we recommend. Seating for the luau starts at 3:30 (which is when we got there so we could secure the best seats - they're first come, first served). The show starts at 4pm and goes for about an hour. Then they clear everyone out and they do a second luau and show at 6pm for the people who paid slightly more (the Ambassador packages). The night show, Ha, starts at at 7:30. Since the villages close at 6pm, this means you'll have to kill an hour and a half if you go to the earlier luau. That's why the later luau is a little more convenient - you can spend the whole day in the villages, then do the luau and eat after the villages close, then go straight to the Ha show. But that wasn't worth the extra $25 for us. -Brian

random question, is it rude if i bring and wear my own lei when i go here? i plan on purchasing the package without lei greeting to save $

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

Not rude at all. Go for it!

[@almed2889]

so amazing!!! really you met paradise

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

Totally agree. Hawaii is just magical. -Brian

[@CourtneysCockpit]

Did they have chicken or steak cuz I wanna go but I don't eat seafood or pork so the prices are kinda scary if I can't eat meat there

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

They have Hulihuli Chicken and Teriyaki Beef available. You can check the entire luau menu here: www.polynesia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Alii-Luau-Menu-2018.pdf

if you could only go one day-- which islands should you go to first? great video btw!

[@PerfectLittlePlanet]

If you could only go one day, you can still visit all the islands. You just won't have time to do all the activities. Get a schedule and make a plan for the top things on your list, since shows happen at different times throughout the day. The three shows I'd recommend are Tonga (so funny), Aotearoa (New Zealand - the Haka), and Fiji. For activities, we really liked the fire knife twirling in Samoa and honestly everything in Aotearoa. Be sure to watch the Canoe Pageant, since that gives you the opportunity to see all the dances from all the islands. Have fun!!

Will be visiting

Have fun! It's such a cool place to visit. -Brian
