So awesome
Lunithefox_F, Apr 2024
As soon as you walk in you can feel the Aloha as you are greeted with a flower lei. The singers were great and the show was awesome. They performed different hula dances from different stories, but the fire dancers left us speechless. The food was tasty and when it started sprinkling they gave us free ponchos.
Response from Host, Apr 2024

We strive to put on a fun and welcoming atmosphere from start to finish so we're glad that you felt the aloha spirit from the moment you arrived. Mahalo again for choosing Maui Nui Luau!

Ther Luau was very over...
Janis_D, Apr 2024
Ther Luau was very over priced for what we got. There was no shade so we had to sit in the hot sun until it started. The group of people was too large to enjoy the food and drinks for the money we paid. The taste of the food was bland and not warm.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi, Janis. We're so sorry to hear your experience at the Maui Nui Luau fell short of expectations. We'll look into ways to improve our guests' comfort and ensure food arrives hot and flavorful. Mahalo for your feedback.

Highly recommended Luau
Courtnei_C, Apr 2024
Unfortunately our luau was changed from outdoor to indoor due to the weather. However, the luau was amazing, the performers put on a very lively show and we were thoroughly entertained between each set. The food options were great and the bartenders kept the drinks flowing. At the end, the rain had subsided and we were able to see the fireshow too!
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Aloha, Courtnei! Mahalo for the amazing review and for giving us a perfect score! We appreciate your understanding about the move indoors due to the weather. Indeed, our performers are fantastic, and we're thrilled they kept you entertained! It's great to hear you enjoyed the food and drinks too. Mahalo again for choosing Maui Nui Luau!
Not worth the money
Sarah_Z, Apr 2024
It rained throughout the entire luau. Instead of moving us inside they continued to serve dinner, dessert and have the show with us all getting wet and cold. The experience was miserable and the tour guide stated unless they moved it inside no refundable. I paid for preferred seating and could not see the cliff diving portion at all. Skip this while in Maui.
