Booking the day we wanted was easy. We all had a wonderful time. The Sunday show was not at capacity and made the evening even more enjoyable. The show of the pig roast was funny and informative. The buffet was delicious...the narrator of the show was very good! The performers were perfect..the woman and the men should be proud of themselves on how they represented their culture. I was blown away with the dance moves and the outfits...just wow!! Would definitely recommend the show...and it was on the beach!!

Overall we had a good experience, although we went over 21 years ago and I remember it being more personal. I thought I remembered apps being served and more interaction with staff. We were also the last table to be released to the buffet but they started the show before we could sit down which made it difficult to try and see/eat and watch the show.

Enjoy a backyard-style Hawaiian luau on a stunning beachfront area, offering a unique glimpse into Polynesian culture and hospitality under the stars.

See the location where Disney's Lilo & Stitch movie was shot as you immerse yourself in the live cultural performances, including hula dances, fire-knife shows, and the Imu Ceremony.

Savor your luau dinner with dishes blending the American-Hawaiian cuisines, featuring kalua pig roasted in an underground imu, island-style chicken, fresh local sides, and tropical desserts.

Start off with a warm lei greeting and participate in pre-show festivities like craft and weaving lessons, and traditional Hawaiian tattoo making that immerse you in island traditions.

Ideal for those who want to get into the Aloha spirit in an open-air setting, families & children who want lively and engaging activities, and those who want to learn more about Polynesian culture through vibrant storytelling & performances.

Upgrade to Original Luau (with central area seating) to enjoy additional complimentary beverages and souvenir gifts. Or choose the Plumeria Luau (VIP seating) experience for initial table service during the luau, round-trip transportation from Waikiki, Express Bar privileges, free parking, & souvenirs.

We had a great time at the luau! It was a really nice experience for both adults and kids. My kids especially enjoyed the performances, and we loved the overall atmosphere. The food, entertainment, and cultural activities made it a memorable evening for all of us. Definitely worth it if you’re visiting with family!
