This was a highlight of our trip. The experience was so beautiful. What I liked most about it was that it opened up my kids' eyes to the beautiful, rich, strong culture of Hawaii. The staff were great, and welcoming, we were able to take photos with the performers afterwards. I recommend doing it after a few nights there if you can so you can truly enjoy and appreciate the experience. The backdrop of the sunset and the Hilton Lagoon was an added blessing. The buffet was a great with lots of options.
Sit close. It’s hard to see the stage. They should raise the stage up so everyone can see the dancers.
The show and food were awesome and delicious. 👌.. I recommend for anyone to experience. Particularly the atmosphere was great.
The experience was well put together. The food was excellent and I appreciated that there was a kids bar aswell. My toddler loved the Ube sweet potato!
It was a great time and getting up close was well worth the price. We will definitely do that again!
Food was not worth the price as most of it was bland, we paid 630 dollars for 2 adults and 2 kids. We been to a luau in Maui that was way better as they did the traditional cook the whole pig in the ground which flavors the entire pig. The performers stage is also ground level, no raised staged. So if you're seated in the back you will have a bunch of people blocking your view.
For the price, you'd expect more, but I guess you pay for the convenient location, nice beach view, great "Hilton" food, and unlimited drinks. But I'd expect at least a lei/seashell necklace, and more activities. It's less cultural. There's only a lei station and a tattoo (sharpie tattoo) station, nothing like a music station, a headband station, etc. Been to a few luaus, felt like this was not worth the money but also I did appreciate the location convenience and how it ended earlier (so kids don't get cranky). Tables were very close to the stage since it's not fully booked (which was great, because most popular luau's you sit pretty far from the stage). Food was very good. Staff was attentive and wonderful. Overall, just would've been better if it's a bit less pricey.
Traveling solo and I loved the show, food and being educated on Hawaiian history. I met some awesome people and had great conversations over dinner
I made a change to our reservation to a Luah and Viator helped me so much with the change all the way up to and including our arrival .
They moved the luau inside. Lost a lot of its authenticity. They did the best they could with what they had but the experience would have been so much better outside where a traditional luau is celebrated.
