This was only my second Lu'au and yet it was the best experience I ever had. The food, the entertainment shows, the people and their hospitality, the vibe and all the complimentary extra curricular things (I wouldn't wanna spoil the fun surprises by describing it 😋), everything was at par with its cost! Must do it at least once while you are in Oahu...
Incredible show, amazing performance and all around best luau!

I loved the intimacy of this luau. Not a lot of people so it was nice to be able to interact with the performers and experience the the activities without long lines. The food was incredible. Do many options to choose from! The staff was amazing and personable. I’ve been to most of the luau’s in the area and this is by far the best one! Definitely worth the visit!!
Best Luau around

The food is really good, it is well cooked and they offer a variety of meats, veggies, startches and lots of pineapple ! The staff are very helpful and friendly. The entertainment is top notch. Every one of the entertainers are talented, funny and know how to engage the crowd. I have been to other luaus, but this one is the best! I will definitely be returning!
I loved that this luau...

I loved that this luau had ladies as well as the warrior performers. The evening was fun, interactive & interesting! Thankful we had this opportunity to learn a little about Polynesian culture, Mahalo.
It was great! But not exceptional

All in all, we enjoyed the experience. We did the Moi package and had transportation included and while I do feel that it was worth it, be aware! I think we were running a bit late arriving due to traffic. Consequently, the activities before the luau were extremely rushed. We did not get to do everything and it was so crowded around the activities. We weren't even able to get our free pictures. I suggest doing pictures immediately after arrival if you want them. As soon as they start showing the dinner, activities stop, including pictures. I feel like at least the pictures should have been kept open. The food was good. It's not 5 star dining, but that's not what a luau is. I wish there was an option for table service, but there is not. I also wish there was an additional option for dessert. Haupia is not for everyone. The show absolutely saved the experience! 100% worth it! The show was top notch! Fun and beautiful! I just feel that we did not receive the full experience that we paid for and so I can't give the experience 5 stars. Mahalo!
