Do not go there! This place is a ripoff run by Mormons. All staff working there only work there to pay off their tuition at a Mormon university nearby. All staff act like zombies, they approached us like every couple minutes even if we were just standing. This place does not provide an authentic Polynesian experience and absolutely not worth your money. We left 1 hour after we arrived because it felt so fake.

The Breath of Life show was the only good thing to see here, the actual center felt more like a theme park and didn't really get to learn anything.

While the tickets are a bit pricey (and I hope they don't continue to go up!), PCC is one of the best educational, authentic experiences on Oahu! The crew members and workers are some of the most authentic, down to earth people you can find and easily carry the experience. Would highly recommend the Islands of Polynesia & Ha, Breath of Life package, especially if you can get it on discount. The buffet is not worth it as they're is a food trucks & other food places are just next door.

Truly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and a must-do when in Hawaii!

just WOW. The guest experience here was INCREDIBLE! For our first time in Hawaii I booked the Ali’i Luau package for my mom and I. We showed up past the 2pm tour time due to traffic from Waikīkī, and they were courteous enough to still assign us a guide. Our guide, Almay, was amazing! So sweet and informative, and really made our experience fun! The dinner was a great mix of foods, and all were tasty. Our lovely server Hannah, asked if we were celebrating anything (which we were—my birthday and graduation) and surprised me with a birthday cupcake as well. The staff were amazing, the food was great, and the island villages and shows/activities were incredible. Worth every penny, definitely a must see—and we will be back! Mahalo to all who made us feel welcome and appreciated 🌺

Epic. Get the top tier with a tour guide and the better buffet for the best experience.

Truly an amazing place! Unlike anything I've ever experienced before. Interactive exhibits of multiple Polynesian Islands, with people in native dress, speaking native tongue & teaching guests about native culture. Luau every evening. Leaving here filled my soul with Hawaiian Pride!

A fantastic cultural experience. We signed up for the guided tour and got assigned an awesome tour guide, Aaron! We learned a ton about polynesian culture and also had some fun experiences. My favorite islands were Tonga and Tahiti. The buffet is not that great but at least you can experience a luau. If you get the buffet with the luau, I recommend coming a few minutes before the buffet spot opens to get good seating. Also, try to get second row seating because audio from the first row was super difficult to comprehend. The breath of life show is amazing. Stick around to the end for the most impressive part, the fire knife dance. Pro tip: if you book in advance(I believe 10 days in advance), you can save up to 10% on your booking. Pro tip 2: there is a strict no recording and no phone rule when watching the breath of life show.

Such a great experience for the family and a must-do activity on Oahu. The exhibits and interactive activities were so cool and my 8 year old really enjoyed. All of the staff were super friendly and eager to help and invite all to participate as well. The Luau and Ha Breath of Life show are also amazing - this is definitely THE Luau to go to and Ha Breath of Life is nothing short of magical. Thanks for the great experience and memories!!
