Maui Luau: Gilligans' Island Luau in Kihei
Overview
Mobile ticket
Gilligans' Island Luau is an intimate luau experience and is the only luau in Kihei on Maui.
Our luau is less than one quarter the size of the average luau in Hawaii. So, every seat is a great view of the show.
The show is a mesmerizing journey through various types of Polynesian culture presented in a fun and engaging format. Through storytelling, audience participation and remarkable performances, we present an experience unavailable anywhere else.
Locally owned and operated, Gilligans is located on the Maui Nui Golf Course. With our small venue, we sell out quickly. Reserve your seats today!

4.00Great show and a beautiful location at sunset. There was a good variety of food and the staff was very friendly.
Good performance, sub par food and venue.

3.00The performers were good and fun to watch. However, the venue is a little dated, and the food was not as good as I hoped for. I was expecting a real pig roast, but instead got heated up pork in buffet trays. The pork and the chicken were over seasoned and way too salty.
Excellent overview of Polynesian culture!

5.00I really wasn’t sure what to expect when the address brought us to the bar at the clubhouse of a golf course. But the whole experience was very well done. The food was excellent…the dancers were very talented - but what really made the experience was the narration and explanation. And I forgot to mention the musicians! The drummer was great, but I really appreciated the guitar duo - very talented vocals.
Best experience for the price

4.00The venue was great, the service was great, the show was great. However, the food was mediocre. I spent $700 for a family of 5, and I guess I expected better cuisine.
Good luau

5.00The food was fantastic, the performance was great and the service was exceptional. They had options to choose from that would work for everyone as we had some dietary restrictions in our party that we easily worked around
