    Most visitors rave about the theatrical performance itself, which consistently stands out as the evening's highlight. The show features talented performers, impressive production values, and engaging storytelling that captures Hawaiian culture. Guests appreciate thoughtful touches like the lei greeting, optional train rides where you can feed animals, and the imu ceremony. The food gets generally positive feedback, with many finding it tasty and plentiful, though a few found it just average. Some practical considerations: seating location matters significantly for the experience, with back tables feeling disconnected from the action. The venue handles large crowds, and while most found operations smooth, a few guests felt the pacing between activities dragged or the exit process chaotic with everyone leaving simultaneously. Sound levels during the show run quite loud. Several reviewers mention this was their favorite luau across multiple Hawaiian visits, and return guests speak highly of the consistent quality that brings them back.

    Great place to feel part of the Hawaiian Culture. The fire staff and poi show was incredible. The staff spinner was the fastest spinner that I have ever seen. The three women fire poi spinners performed in close proximity of each other and were impressive.The food was ok. The only reason I say Ok is because I couldn't sample only a few items. The rice and pork were delicious. Not that many allergy sensitive foods. Enjoyed the Lei and seeing the artisan market. The staff were friendly and helpful.
