Polynesian Cultural Center

It's a bit shocking to see so many bad reviews!do these ppl ever appreciate anything?:/ I absolutely loved the HĀ:Breath of Life show & the food! also, they employ local students!Fantastic day!THANKS!

I honestly didn't know much about Polynesia. This place not only teaches but makes you want to know more. If you're into knowing about other cultures this is the place. Trip out has amazing views too

World class cultural entertainment and great food! Be sure to arrive at 2pm so you have enough time to know all the islands .Hã:The Breath of Life is a MUST (150 artists , 2h of incredible performances )

A fantastic day! I wish they opened earlier - we would have loved to spend more time here before the Luau and Night Show ! I would recommend to anyone visiting Oahu!

Hā: Breath of Life was the highlight of the day, but we also really enjoyed our guided tour and canoe ride through the beautiful grounds, and the tasty pork at the luau (don’t fill up at the buffet !).

We got the Super Ambassador Package for my group. Absolutely amazing guide, simply splendid food & entertainment like no other. We'll be coming back. Say hi to Fred (canoe pusher).

If coming to Hawaii, make sure that you come to PCC!!! Though a bit expensive , you will NOT REGRET it. The experience is second to none! Just like Disney, Disney World, Vegas Strip, this is a MUST SEE

This is truly a great place to see Polynesian culture. Go early to see all the amazing presentations. The canoe pageant is a must see for anyone going. Make sure you have time for gifts shops !

Great food, entertainment, service, experience, everything. I highly recommend this for every visitor. A little bit expensive but so worth it to learn about the culture that influences so much here.

I really had fun and amazed with all the cultures there, the night show is somewhat boring, you can see these kind if dances in all around Hawaii, the best show in the center is at 2 p.m.

A great day out at a theme park where you learn about the all the different Polynesian Cultures. The night show of traditional dancing is great and some trivia - Blue Hawaii was filmed here (Elvis) Read more

Talk to the hosts/performers. A couple reached out to me when I was wandering. One taught me a dance and the other showed me hale weaving. They were super friendly and willing to share.

The tour during the day was excellent Marcia did a great job keeping things lively the show is pretty good but after spending a whole day in the park I was to tired to sit through it.

Sunscreen & comfortable shoes are absolute MUST. 1st timers, expect to spend almost a day to see & experience everything including the dinner & the show. Use the Kamaaina discount if you're local.

If you're staying in Waikiki without a car, there is a bus route (#55) that goes out there. It's a long bus ride but you can't beat the fare.

Splurge and get a private tour guide. Ask for Baska. Amazing experience. If you are in Hawaii the first time, you HAVE to do all of the cheesy stuff.

A pricey , but fantastic way to spend a day. Educational, interactive and FUN. Many uplifting experiences that presented the culture of Polynesia.

If you came to Hawaii to drink and watch bikini girls on the beach then this is not your place. If you enjoy theatrical shows then you will enjoy the full day experience the center has to offer.

Wow, the reviews for this place is all wrong. Really great place to visit. The Laua food was good too and worth trying, desert needs work. But a must do!

If you have kids, it's more than a day because of the activities. So you will not be able to see all the shows unless you skip the activities.

In particular don't miss 2 shows .. One at 1430 in the river and other show in Hawaii village .. They are must do ..

Breath of life was really cool, but could have been half as long. Intermission ice cream tastes like peach/bubblegum Luau food was great! Very interesting shows and look into each culture.

Our family really enjoyed our visit! Entertaining, fun, informative. Also cool that it supports scholarships and a local community.

I didn't know what to expect here. Thought it would be boring and educational . I was blown away by how fun and funny it actually was. Highly recommended this if you have the time!!

Amazing and educational . Everyone is so friendly and there is so much to do! Great experience.

Visit with some of the employees, most of whom are incredible BYU-Hawaii students. Ask them about their stories, mainly what brought them to Laie, BYUH, and the PCC. They make the PCC what it is.

Save your money and skip the tour , the sub par food & the Vegas style show. The presentations are all near each other & scheduled every 1/2 hr. Spend the $100 you save on a nice dinner in Waikiki. ????

Not sure why there are bad reviews. Been to other luaus. This was well worth my money. Do the Ambassador package. Take the tour beginning at 12 and it's guided all day. Prime dining is the best.

It's nice if you have half a day to spare. Buy the general admission only. Closed Sundays. If you sail then they have the Iosepa in the Hawaii village . It's a 57ft all wood ocean canoe .

This place is a must visit of you want to understand the difference between the different Polynesian groups.

Where else can you experience the cultures of Samoa, Fiji, Hawaii, Aoetearoa, Tonga and Tahiti all in one place? Enjoy the famous luau, canoe races, fire making, and more! http://bit.ly/UaQjd

Definitely a full day kind of activity. Food was great. Nice family atmosphere . The evening show was awesome.

Beautiful stunning locations with very insightful decor and artifacts . Has the history of every poloneisan culture.

DONT COME HERE FOR A LUAU! They don’t serve alcohol anywhere because it’s run by the Mormons . Excellent etc to be served Pepsi with your “authentic” luau. No mention of alcohol-free event .

This is amazing. Spend a little more and get a tour guide. He or she will make sure you see all the good stuff.

I enjoyed walking around here and taking pictures during the day, then having dinner and watching the evening show (Ha, Breath of Life). http://www.polynesia.com/

This place is probably more expensive than it should be. The buffet is mediocre, but the displays of Polynesian culture are informative. A great place to learn about something new.

Pay the $25 for the lunch buffet and the guided tour . The buffet isn't great, but it's an efficient way to experience the entire attraction .

Everything here is amazing! I cannot recommend it enough.

Definitely watch the boat parade and buy the ice cream that they sell just before the show.

Ambassador package. Definitely family fun, plan on spending at least half a day. Though not cheap , the revenues support scholarships for college students .

The people here were so helpful and friendly and learning about he different cultures was so cool.

The students do a great job at the "island " attractions . Unfortunately, the food is atrocious at the Island Feast Buffet . Your money is better spent elsewhere to learn about Polynesian culture.

Don't listen to the bad reviews. We had a great time for a couple of hours. Set your expectations, this place "enter-cational". Groupon made it even better at 50%

Give yourself the day to have the full experience and buy the bus ride ticket price!!!

This place is stupid. It is sad that the most interesting thing is the trip to the Mormon temple . The girls who did the tour were lovely.

Make sure to get the night show on DVD. I got it for my kids, and we've watched it more than 10 times. It costs about $20.00

Luau was fantastic, great food and entertainment. The Evening show was great!

Lots of upselling and HUGE crowds, but they handle the people smoothly and well . Fun but not the traditional luau I'd hoped for.

It's free to tour the marketplace and parking is free as well .
