Amazing

Dennise_P, Apr 2024

The whole experience was amazing. The food was really good and they would give you seconds if asked. The entertainment was excellent.

Stellar, a must to experience

Diane_F, Apr 2024

It was such an amazing experience from the host to the food to the entertainment! My daughter and I loved it immensely! We were seated with fabulous people from across the U.S. who all thoroughly enjoyed themselves, as well. We truly felt like part of the family, adopted cousins. We highly recommend this luau to all my family/friends!

Absolutely wonderful! All...

Lindsay_N, Apr 2024

Absolutely wonderful! All of the dances were amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your culture with our family.

Awesome and fun!

Rhea_H, Apr 2024

It was a fun time with my family we enjoyed the show especially the fire dancing would definitely recommend it!

Great interactive...

CarolJean_D, Apr 2024

Great interactive experience. Very engaging. They honored people there celebrating birthdays and anniversaries and graduations, which was pretty special. Good food. Bonus entry to Waimea botanical gardens and falls was fantastic. Very worthwhile!

Wow!

mimi, Apr 2024

WOW!! great performance! Plus the gardens & the waterfall were a great addition. Best performance on the island!

Okay Luau

Michael_R, Apr 2024

The luau itself was good. I booked the VIP but would not recommend paying the extra price. Staff were great and the food was very good. It was a fun experience but transportation too and from need to be included. It was confusing for me and we got there on a tour bus that we ended up paying extra to get there then had to get a Lyft to get back to Waikiki. We ended up paying a lot more than necessary. The experience would have been much better except the stress of figuring out the transportation.

It was average

Robin_B, Apr 2024

The dancing and fire show was great. I was disappointed in the food. I was expecting to have more authentic Hawaiian food and it wasn't.

A phenomenal experience!

Richard_P, Apr 2024

Awesome food and show, my family had no idea what to expect but the whole experience was fantastic. Well worth the price!

Must Do Experience!

Brooke_W, Apr 2024

The luau was very entertaining and engaging. The host keeps you participating and engaged, he was all very funny and the night was full of laughs! The dances and stories were extremely fun! They also had activities to learn about the culture which was amazing as well!

Best luau in Hawaii

Gautam_D, Apr 2024

Best Luau on the island. We attended the Luau first and everyone was so welcoming. Learnt a lot about the Polynesian culture as we were having great food. The MC was hilarious. The dances were amazing. As an added bonus, you can visit the Waimea falls and botanical gardens before/ after the show.

incredible show, friendly staff, amazing food, worth the drive!

Sandra_V, Apr 2024

absolutely amazing experience and the garden was beautiful. incredible show, friendly staff, amazing food, worth the drive!

Wonderful Experience!

Laura_W, Apr 2024

We had a great time @ the Toa Luau. We went early & enjoyed strolling around the beautiful botanical gardens. Wish we had gone even earlier to enjoy the pool @ the waterfall. Enjoyed the hands on cultural activities on the lawn before dinner. The food was tasty & plentiful. Try the Valley Nectar cocktail-yummy! I can't say enough about the quality of entertainment! The dancing, storytelling, etc was FANTASTIC. You can tell they pour their hearts into it! Highly recommend.

Great experience

James_B, Apr 2024

Just the overall experience of learning about the culture and meeting people from countries puts a new perspective on wanting to travel more

The best luau on Ohau

berkshiregal1, Apr 2024

The friendliness and hospitality of the team who put on the luau was incredible. The teaching of Polynesian cultures was so interesting, the food was amazing and the show was incredible. A great evening with my family.

Great luau experience

Daniel_B, Apr 2024

My wife and I really enjoyed our experience at the Luau and we took advantage of the entry to Waimea Valley prior to the show. The activities, show and dinning experience was great and felt personal. The food tasted good and seconds was offered.

Perfect Ending to our Trip!

Kara_G, Apr 2024

This was the highlight of our trip! Excellent location, fun activities, amazing food, and wonderful service! We did silver seating and we had a perfect view of the stage! Worth the drive to the North Shore, even if staying in Waikiki!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Aloha and mahalo for leaving us this review! We're glad that you enjoyed the luau and had a great experience. Hoping to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Fun Family Luau

Kim_L, Apr 2024

This was our first luau and it was fun! You often hear numbers at luaus ranging from 800 -900 people but this one was probably around 200 ish. Overall they make the experience very family friendly. They have activities on the lawn before they serve you dinner. It is not buffet but rather sit down which was nice. The food was good and they are sensitive to food allergies, which I made they aware of prior to our arrival. They also offer 2nds and 3rds of food if wanted. The show was fun as we did the 12:30 showing. They did use fire as part of their show too which was a hit with my kids. We started at 9:00 AM at the gardens, swam in the falls, changed in their bathrooms then went to the Luau which is right on campus. Overall it was a great experience and would recommend to anyone.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Aloha! Mahalo for this review and for the recommendation, we appreciate it! We're delighted to hear that you and your family had a great time at the luau. Hopefully we'd see you again the next time you're on the island! Mahalo nui loa!

Great Luau

Ngwe_A, Apr 2024

Good food! Great show! Loved learning about the culture. I would recommend g purchasing the highest seating level if you need handicap accessibility.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Aloha and mahalo for this review! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the luau. Mahalo for the recommendation too, we appreciate it! Visit us again soon! Mahalo!

The highlight of our trip!

Rebecca_M, Apr 2024

I loved the warm, genuine welcome we received. It was obvious that this group of performers loved what they do and have fun with each other. I had high expectations going in, but the experience exceeded them! It's so great that even the young cousins participate in serving the food and performing the traditional dances. The 12 yr old fire dancer was amazing!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Aloha! Mahalo for this review. We're glad that you loved the luau and the experience. Hope to see you again the next time you're around. Mahalo!
