This is not my first luau so I knew what to expect. The food and drinks were ok. The dancers, musicians and storytellers were great. Loved the traditions being passed on to the young performers. The location on the rooftop of hotel not very Hawaiian compared to others being held on the beach near the water and felt very commercialized. I didn’t think the luau matched the price point.

the moment we arrive, we were greeted with warmth, music, and traditional lei. The food—especially kalua pig, poi, and fresh island fruits—is delicious and plentiful. Throughout the evening you’ll enjoy captivating performances, including hula, fire dancing, and storytelling that share Hawaiian history and spirit. The atmosphere feels festive and relaxed, perfect for families,

Great show! They even have a performance platform halfway back so the back seating sections can see the dancers up close. Food was wonderful, too! Fish, pork, tofu & chicken for entrees. The creamiest macaroni salad I have ever tasted and a nice green salad. They also offer flower wristbands and a native tattoo’.

Paina Waikiki luau at the Marriott. This evening is not cheap, but is absolutely fabulous! The evening starts at 5.15 - 8pm. We lined up at 4.45pm and were first in queue getting our pick on the spots to sit! Everyone is given a gorgeous fresh lei before being escorted to their seats. The VIP seats are basically the front half of the chairs/tables closest to the stage (and costs $30 extra). It also comes with three included drinks (cocktails, wine, beer, soft drinks). After we were seated and offered our first drink, we could go and get a fresh flower bracelet and / or an arm temporary tattoo. When the food was ready, table by table guests were taken up to the buffet. The food was amazing! Every single part of it. There were 4 different types of meat, salads, rice, macaroni and potato, bread rolls and desserts. As soon as everyone had food the show begins. The host/singer was polished and informative. He introduced the different performer groups with some background on their culture and history. The performers and costumes were fabulous! The musician group was amazing. This was a slick, professional performance that we really enjoyed and felt like we were given a little context around Hawaii as well. I could not recommend this performance and meal highly enough. It was the highlight of my time in Hawaii.
