5.00Had an amazing experience at Toa Luau and one of the highlights of my trip. The emcee was funny and made it feel like hanging out with extended family. The performers were talented and showcased a breadth of dress and dances across different Polynesian cultures. Food was generous and delicious. All in the setting of Waimea Valley. Great way to spend half the day!
The Toa Luau is Amazing!

5.00The Toa Luau at Waimea Valley was a wonderful experience! The staff were very friendly and taught us about their culture through different activities, the delicious food, as well as the music and dances throughout the show. It was the highlight of our vacation! I highly recommend this luau!

Wonderful Cultural Experience

5.00This was a wonderful cultural experience in one of the most beautiful spots in all of O'ahu. The entire 'ohana that took care of us was so wonderful and inviting. It felt really special that it was the same group of people greeting, educating, serving, and dancing during the luau, and the vibes were warm and welcoming throughout. We heard from several other visitors who had been to other luaus that this was by far the best one, and it was easy to see why. The experience was extremely well-produced, but felt relaxed and authentic. The food was plated (not buffet!) and delicious, with generous portions. The drinks were good and the bar line was never too long. The group of attendees didn't feel overwhelmingly large (we attended the 12:30 lunch luau) and afterward we walked through the stunning Waimea Valley (entrance fee included in the luau) up to the waterfall, which also wasn't too crowded. Educational, entertaining, and enjoyable all around. Mahalo, Toa Luau for the wonderful memories!
Amazing Luau in Oahu!

5.00I want to express how satisfied and pleased I was with Toa Luau. I’ve been to several luaus on the island because of family visits and work events, but this one really stood out. My wife decided to take me here along with her father, and I’m glad she did. First, the location is beautiful. With your ticket, you can also visit the waterfall and enjoy the area before the show, which makes the experience feel like more than just dinner and entertainment. The venue is the perfect size. It feels personal and easy to enjoy, unlike some larger luaus. I also believe that whether you have VIP or Silver seating, every seat has a great view. The reception was excellent. The staff was very welcoming and greeted us with a beautiful lei. They also had great activities for both adults and children before the show, which made the experience even better. The food and drinks were amazing. The drinks were perfectly balanced, not watery and not too strong. The kids also loved the piña coladas and other non-alcoholic drinks. Now, the food: OMG, the pork was incredible! From the moment we parked, you could smell how good it was going to be. As a Hispanic man and a foodie who loves pernil and well-seasoned food, I can honestly say the food was delicious. The pork, chicken, mac salad, and desserts were all flavorful and well done. Hands down, this was the best food I’ve had at a luau. The show was also great. From the MC to the performers, everything was excellent. What made it even more impressive was that the performers were also the ones serving the food, which made the experience feel even more genuine and personal. Toa Luau was more than I expected. It was absolutely worth the drive, and next time I’ll make a full day out of visiting that area. I highly recommend it.
This Luau was amazing!

5.00This is, hands down, the best Luau that I have attended. I flew my family in from multiple states and the highlight of our trip was the Toa Luau!
