Definitely fun and worth doing. There is a long time before dinner so the train ride is a great addition especially if you have kids! The performance was fun to watch especially the fire dancing! The staff were all so nice and attentive. The one thing that could be improved on is the food. It wasn’t bad but typical and for almost 700$ I would have expected something a little better. Over all a fun experience!

My wife and I had a great time at the luau. We opted to take the train ride through the plantation and enjoyed seeing all the fruit trees, coffee shrubs, and cacao trees. We were pleasantly surprised that we got to stop midway to feed the pigs. They had some adorable day old piglets out there with mama. The food was delicious! I especially enjoyed the kalua pork, Mac salad, and pineapple cake. Good mai tais too. The show was amazing! A captivating story with beautiful set design and costumes. The fire dragon dancers were especially impressive! Highly recommend this luau! One of the best I’ve seen. We also opted to catch ride to/from the event. Our driver Rosario, was friendly, punctual, and had a great playlist to hype us up for the event.

This was an unforgettable experience. My favorite part was feeding the horses during the train ride and the dinner show itself was beautiful. There was so much to do while waiting for the show to start so we never felt bored and the staff were all so kind and engaging. We will definitely be attending again on future visits!

Good show but lacked authenticity. Was very busy and the experience felt rushed. Bar tenders were great, the good was ok.

The show and buffet are excellent. We opted for the train ride as well and Bruce was an exceptional guide. Although you do feel a bit rushed with getting off the bus and then the train and then the ceremony for unearthing the pig , there is no time to get to see the craft vendors set up around the area. Plan to make another trip to see the plantation house and area.
