Most awesome food I’ve had at a luau! The entertainment was amazing. Wonderful job by all the dancers and their costumes were beautiful. Only suggestion I had is to have better viewing for the fire dancer. Making a higher stage so everyone can view?

This was a very fun night. We have been to a few different Luaus, and while this one did not have the Imu presentation, the show was really fun. AND: This luau has had the best food of all the ones we've attended. The few cultural hands on things (Drums and some hula things) were fun as well. While the venue is not a toes in the sand one, the back drop is a beautiful view of the eastern shore. My family preferred this luau to the other most well known and popular luau on Kauai, so it is an enthusiastic 5 stars from all 5 of us!

What an experience! The food was wonderful but the entertainment was more than any words could express. They provided deep cultural insights, history & knowledge you felt you were on the journey in history. The language is beautiful the vendors were wonderful & the dancing was beautiful. We loved every minute of it and would strongly recommend.
