5.00If you want to experience native culture and a great dinner/show I would highly recommend not passing this up. The dances and brief history of the tribes were interesting, entertaining, and informative. The food was Delicious. We loved it. Way more involved and exciting than I expected. The fire dancing was awe inspiring

Authentic Polynesian Luau

5.00My husband & I went to Toa Luau while visiting Hawaii. We found this Luau to emulate traditional Polynesian culture. It was informative as well as entertaining & the food was amazing. Every hula & traditional dance was beautifully performed; and the fire dancing was spectacular. We were blown away by how authentic this Luau was. I would highly recommend Toa Luau.
Not expected

3.00The staff was amazing, however the site said nothing about hours to falls or gardens. The traffic was horrible took us 2.5 hours to get there. There was no warning. We should have gotten an explanation earlier about trip. Paying that much and not being able to go to falls was terrible. The staff for falls did not let us in but the couple who arrived after us were allowed by different staff. The site says access until 430, we got there before 4, and were told no. We only wanted a photo. We were not going to be late. The line for the bar was too long and then charged for the drink I wanted, which was understandable but missed all activities due to line. As stated the staff was kind and respectful. This was not the experience I wanted. Seems like you have to be a return customer and understand flow to enjoy it. First time visitors much like myself did not enjoy the experience. I would recommend a different luau or find someone who has done it to get an accurate expectation and flow.

5.00That it was a great experience. We enjoyed it. The only thing for me was I don't eat pork or beef and i am notca big fan of plain rice. I wish they had it were you would be able to tell them your allergies and what you can eat. Loved the show. Everything was great until they turned the house lights on I have never seen so may bugs at one time. Termites were everywhere. Don't RECOMMEND that other than that I and my family had a blast. I do RECOMMEND
Wonderful cultural experience

A highly spiritual experience

5.00Highly recommend to anyone wanting to go to a Polynesian. An incredible authentic experience. The love and care the Toa Luau team put into their craft is truly priceless. You cannot put a cost on “family” and that is certainly what they make you feel like. It was a true honour to be welcomed into the sacred space, and I could not be more grateful to have been there.
Fantastic
