What To Expect
Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa
The rich cultural and natural beauty of Waikīkī is highlighted in songs and dances of the life-giving streams that still flow into the heart of Waikīkī today, and the tender stories of Hawaiiʻs beloved monarchs, their love for their people and this famed place. Meet our kamaʻāina, our local islanders who will share with you some of the hana noʻeau (cultural arts) they grew up with here in Waikīkī. Kui lei – string a floral adornment perfect to wear for the evening’s festivities. Tatau Pasefika – tattoos can be found all throughout Polynesia. Learn about its significance and perhaps brave a temporary tattoo for the Pāʻina. And hula of course… Pāʻina Waikīkī is full of music and hula and so we invite everyone to join in.

5.00We had an awesome time at this luau! We returned from a cruise and the cruise excursion was $100 more and had 2,000 people in attendance! This event was on the rooftop at the Marriott with about 100/125 people. The entertainment was great and the food was fantastic!! Everyone had such a great time and I’m so glad I booked this luau! Highly recommend!!
