Very friendly and warm welcome at the wonderful facility on Mauna Lani! We arrived an hour early but had no issue receiving the complimentary valet service while walking around the beach before the event. Staff was kind to direct us to the Pavilion where the event was. Great buffet style food, alcohol drinks available for purchase with credit card and the bartender was amazing! Made great cocktails and had an incredible memory. There are family activities guests can participate before the Luau starts. Friendly note is to bring some sort of shade with you if visiting in the summer season since it starts outdoors just before sunset!
The luau is held at the beautiful Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection at Kalāhuipuaʻa, which is a historical area where ancient Hawaiians mastered the art of aquaculture and where King Kamehameha came to recuperate and work in the fishponds. Guests are welcomed with a traditional Oli (chant) in preparation for preliminary activities with the cast. After the activities, watch as the pig is taken out of the traditional imu pit before it is prepared for the Hawaiian buffet. The program is capped off by a performance of traditional and modern Hula dances, along with the spectacular Samoan Siva Afi (fire knife dance).
Duration2 hours - 3 hours

The food was delicious and the entertainment was awesome! We had assigned seating so we didn’t have to get there super early to choose a good seat. Worth the money.

Our family had a wonderful time at the Luau. It was a beautiful setting and a great show! There was a nice selection of food for the dinner and complementary drinks when we arrived. The show was entertaining and told about the history of the island. We had a great night!

It was an outside venue that was absolutely beautiful and perfect. The story teller and dancers and wait staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. However, you should dress up for the event.

Was a great experience with the music, not many activities and food was decent. Overall a great experience see the dancing, the song dedications, and just overall environment.
