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!

5.00Great experience! Every aspect of this excursion was perfect. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious, and the performers were all great! It is a small venue but plenty of room for all and it made the experience feel more personal compared to the huge venues. Very happy with the entire experience!

3.00The stage is not set where you can see the performers well and the it’s not a “movie scene 🎬 kind of event, with that being said the food was god and the wait staff are extremely kind. If your looking for a more upscale and “Don -Ho “ experience this is not what your looking for. Beautiful people but 3 stars ⭐️ is a perfect description.
Awesome luau experience.

3.00It really wasn’t worth it. I would prefer an open luau with space to explore. You’re seated on a deck for this. The fire dancer was good and the food was fine, but it’s worth spending more for a great experience.
The food was very tasty...

4.00This was a really fun event. We upgraded to VIP. Well worth it. Loved sitting right up front and having 1st dibs on supper. The food was amazing. The drinks were really watered down. So while it’s endless drinks, unless you’re drinking beer you won’t get anything from the drinks. Pure fruit juice. The show itself was great. I enjoyed the different parts of history and the dancers were great. The whole thing was only 2hrs so take from that as you will. Would I do it again, yes. Overall it was a great night with delicious food.
Had an awesome evening!
