There are columns supporting the restaurant pavilion that block the views for most people and the main fire dancer guy kept dropping the fire things like it was his first day on the job. Dancers were ok. Show was only 40 minutes. The drummers were the best part. No liquor drinks for purchase, just beer and wine. How can you have a Polynesian show without a Mai Tai? Our waiter wasn’t good either. Still can’t believe we spent like $350 on that. Really wish we had taken the advice here and gone to town that night. The Chinese restaurant and room service were also open, in addition to Upa Upa as well. We thought the free show at Upa Upa on Sunday night was better. Maybe I’m jaded since I’ve seen much better shows in Hawaii and Fiji but was just thoroughly unimpressed, especially for the price.

Edit to add: the actual price is 14,000 xpf per person, which includes food and show only, no beverages.
That is disappointing to hear. I guess we'll have to skip the Polynesian show and do Upa Upa on Friday.
Can you just watch the Sunday free show at Upa Upa without eating there? I'm not sure I want to eat at that same restaurant again.
