HUNDREDS OF 5-STAR REVIEWS FROM GUESTS!

OMG, what a night. It was spectacular. I would recommend this to anyone. Everyone was so nice, the food was awesome, and plenty for extras. The drinks were a plus. The show was far more then I thought it would be. A wonderful experience. I love the native dancing, the leis, the music, the MC, the ambiance, and the outdoor sunset and seating just made it a perfect night.

Never been to a luau. The entire experience was exciting. The entire group were amazing . The background to island customs was highly educational. The director Che knew his stuff. All dancers were bright, colorful, and entertaining.

Loved the history of the dances and what island the dances originated from. The costumes were so beautiful and the show was so entertaining. The buffet was delicious with so many choices. Beautiful rooftop of the Hilton Hawaiian village with a perfect view of the sunset as well.
