5.00Wonderful experience. Plenty to do b4 the Luau show. A walk through a paradise area of flora, unique trees. Tourist items/shops. At the end of the path there's a waterfall and grotto like are where every one can take a dip and cool off from the heat. The walk can be tough if not meandering. There is a tram available. All is prepaid or at the time of entry. The Luau came with food, alchohol was at our expense. There were hand on exhibits, dancing, and entertaining hosts. The actual show itself was everything one would expect plus !
Exceptional Hospitality and an Unforgettable Show

4.00My family and I had a wonderful time at the luau. From the moment we arrived, the team did a marvelous job with the pre-show activities, creating an engaging and welcoming atmosphere for guests of all ages. The performances were absolutely amazing, showcasing talent, culture, and storytelling in a way that was both entertaining and meaningful. I especially loved seeing generational performers on stage—it added heart and authenticity to the experience. The food was delicious and thoughtfully prepared, and the hospitality was truly second to none. Everyone we encountered was friendly, attentive, and eager to ensure we had a great evening. One suggestion for improvement would be clearer information at booking regarding drink options and pricing. Overall, it was a memorable experience we truly enjoyed as a family.
Fun Experience

5.00Of all the activities we’ve crammed into our stay in HI, this experience has been the best! From the pre-luau walk to the falls, to the activities, dinner and show, the entire evening will not be quickly forgotten.
Fantastic experience for the whole family

5.00The Luau at Waimea Valley was one of our favorite experiences during our recent trip to Oahu. The botanical gardens (included in our admission) were beautiful and offered much more than we could see in the short time we had to visit. Next time we will allow much more time for the gardens before the Luau. The Luau itself scored high across the board. Check-in was easy and hassle free, the staff was friendly and helpful, even offering hearing protection for the children. The activities before the luau started were enjoyable, the food was great and the show was top notch.
A Magical Family Evening at Toa Luau 🌺🌴

5.00AWe had such a wonderful time at the Toa Luau — truly an unforgettable experience for our whole family! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warm hospitality that made us feel like ohana. Thanks to our tickets, we enjoyed a full day exploring the stunning Waimea Valley and waterfall before the evening festivities. It was a long, adventure-packed day, and although we had to head out a bit early because our daughter was totally tuckered out, we soaked in every moment. The food? Absolutely delicious! My husband is still raving about the pork, and to our amazement, our picky toddler inhaled her chicken — a rare and happy victory for parents of tiny food critics. What truly made the night unforgettable, though, was the hospitality. Every staff member went above and beyond to make the experience feel special. Our daughter received a handmade bracelet during one of the cultural activities and held onto it like a treasure for the rest of the night. We can’t wait to return and make this a family tradition. Mahalo to the entire Toa Luau team for such a warm, memorable evening!
So amazing! Had such a fun time and the performance was beautiful. Food was so delicious and everyone was so sweet ☺️
