Paid over $200 per person to find out they lost their liquor license and did not inform people who purchased thru 3rd party apps.
Best, first luau experience! A must-do in Hawaii!

This experience was the perfect way to celebrate the end of our week in Hawaii! The luau was very interactive with activities to do before the show, such as getting fun tattoos, exploring a Polynesian kitchen, a photoshoot corner, and a market to shop for goodies. The all-you-can-eat buffet was hands-down yummy and gave that Polynesian cultural dinner experience with purple sweet potatoes and Taro buns. Lastly and most importantly, the show itself was unforgettable! The stories told and the history of Hawaii was portrayed by amazing actors and dancers, and even the humor by the hosts and the audience engagement kept us laughing and in awe the whole time.
This was a wonderful...

Worth the drive! - Food was ok, not horrible, but nothing super impressive. The show itself was AMAZING. So many little nuggets of extras peppered in all over the place! From my hubby who's been to 5 luaus, this one is on the top of his list he says. I would rate 4.5 if it let me. HIGHLY recommend paying the little extra for one of the upgraded packages. As a travel agent, I would definitely recommend this to my clients visiting the islands. *One note - we were given two drink tickets per person, however found out at the event, they no longer had their liquor license and it was BYOB. Many guests did not get that email in time.
10/10 recommend
