Island Breeze Luau at King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel with Show, Dinner & Drinks Included

family fun

Reviewed by: Lina

We decided on this luau -from many- because they were family friendly and the other reviews. They were right, we had a blast. The staff were so accommodating to my daughter (1.5yo). She loved the show and even tried to Hula. We were also celebrating my moms 77th birthday and she loved it too. The best buffet of hawaii's essential plates and desserts too. I would definitely would go back.

Great experience

Reviewed by: Nikki J

It was out first time at a Luau & we had a wonderful time. It was such a great experience, the food was amazing & everyone was so friendly. We weren’t sure about it being at a water park but once you’re seated, you would never know it was a theme park. Definitely recommend!

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

highly recommended

Reviewed by: Yuma Chica

We took the shuttle from Waikiki to Paradise cove which ended up being a tour bus. Hala was awesome as she entertained us on the shuttle; she's very personable and has a great sense of humor. Everything was well organized and the property was beautiful. You are greeted with a lovely complementary mai tai but also included was a loaded gift card that you could use in the gift shop or at the bar. There were two activities before we sat down for dinner. The food was very good - and the entertainment was outstanding!

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Nicole

Overall, awesome experience! After reading reviews, I was super nervous about the validity of this site, especially considering that this site was able to get me tickets to a Luau that was sold out on all other sites. I called the venue to be reassured that this was a real site, and they confirmed it's validity! We showed up to the luau, had an amazing experience, and had 0 complications! Def. recommended!

A Good Time Indeed!

Reviewed by: Tito

It was a great time to bring my wife to this show. She had never been to a luau before and this was a great experience. The food was standard pre-prepared fare but the entertainment was excellent.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Tito,
Thank you so much for your comments, and for bringing your wife to experience our luau. Our food is a variety of island favorites, with some Hawaiian style prepared dishes, however, we're sorry you felt it was standard. When you're preparing food for such large numbers, it may not be up to your standards. It sounds like you enjoyed the evening overall, and for that I'm happy. Our entertainers work hard at their talent, so I'm so happy that you felt it was excellent! We hope you will share your photos and comments with your friends and family, and maybe even post some on our Facebook page at Germaine's Luau & Special Events! #experienceohana, #germainesluau....Mahalo, Germaine's Luau Ohana

Te Au Moana Luau with Dinner, Fire Knife Show & Open Bar at Wailea Marriott Maui

Perfect first luau

Reviewed by: Tai

Booking through Hawaii activities was the best decision. Not only did I get a discount from their summer coupon but I booked early enough that they were able to secure us a table right upfront, not sure if that’s the reason. Open bar was worth it. The drinks were surprisingly great. The shows were entertaining. The food was ok. I would definitely go back though for sure.

Hilton Waikiki Beach Front Luau & Fireworks Show - Friday Night Exclusive!

It's more for the experience

Reviewed by: Alissa

We got the premium tickets and actually got sat front and center which was great for our kids (4, 6 & 8). That also meant though that one side of the table was blinded by the sun for the first part of the show until the sun dipped below the trees (small price to pay for front and center). We didn't realize that with the premium tickets even the kids got extra drink tickets that could be used for juice or alcohol. My kids were never going to drink that many juices so we used them to get a few extra Mai Tai for us...but word of advice if you wait for the server to get the drinks you will never be able to get through your tickets because they are split between so many tables so grab them from the bar yourself. The show was great my kids especially liked the fire dancers. The food was just ok but we expected that as it's hard to serve that many individual plates at once. The only thing my kids would eat was the shredded pork and fruit so if you have kids who are picky eaters make sure they eat a little something before hand.

Germaine's Luau - Fun Backyard Style Luau with Dinner, Show & Fire-Knife Dance

Such an amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Cecilla (Cece)

This is my first Luau in Hawaii and my boyfriend and I absolutely enjoyed it! The location was spot on. We loved the location, since it was in front of the beach. The venue gave us a tropical vibe. When it came to the food I wasn't too sure if I would enjoy the kalua very much because I am not a porky person. However, after seeing my boyfriend eat the kalua I gave in and tried it myself. Surprisingly it was quite delicious! Too be honest, the food at Germaine's was spot on! Despite the salad, I wasn't to fond of it. Other than that, it sort of reminds me of L&L's lol. I love the idea of giving each person a ticket for one free drink, I thought that was a nice gesture. My favorite part of the evening was the fireshow and the show's overall! The dancers, story, history, and the people were all beautiful. My only wish was that their were more males show haha. I mean, I love the hula girls but where are the mens! Overall, I will definitely come back here with my friends and families..venue, food, and the experience did not disappoint at all. Thank you Germaine's for your great hospitality! Aloha, Cece

Aloha Cece, Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience at our family luau. I'm happy you took the chance and tried our "Kalua" or roasted pig, that was cooked traditional way in our underground oven, called an "Imu". It does have a different taste when it's cooked that way. Our salad is made real "local" style, usually macaroni & potato together, and similar to L&L but glad you enjoyed everything else overall. We have added a few more male dancers, as several of our male dancers are also in the Military reserves so not always available. We hope you will return one day and visit us again!! Loved your photos, and hope you will post them to our Facebook page at Germaine's Luau & Special Events or post your comments on Yelp or Trip Advisor....#experienceohana, #germainesluau Mahalo, Germaine's Luau Ohana

One of the best luaus on Maui hands down!

Reviewed by: Madison L

They had open availability after my first luau was cancelled. We were so happy about this because our vacation was revived! They drop their dates some times in the beginning of the month which is how we got our hands on tickets. They sell out quick now so definitely plan your luaus ahead! The food was awesome and the experience matched. The aloha energy was spread all night long throughout every worker we came in contact with. Definitely recommend this luau!

Polynesian Cultural Center Admission Ticket with 6 Island Villages & Canoe Ride

A must see while in Oahu!!!

Reviewed by: Roxanna L

We had a great time at the Polynesian Cultural Center at all the villages. Having never been there, on the first day, we were not watching the time and when we realized the villages all closed at 5:30.. I think its wonderful to allow the guests to use the tickets for up to three days since the first day. This gave us the opportunity to return and enter the rest of the villages that we didn't have time to see on the first day. We were bummed that the luau, buffet and show were all sold out on both days.

Polynesian Cultural Center Admission Ticket with 6 Island Villages & Canoe Ride

Worth every second there!

Reviewed by: Fuzzypenguin

What a fantastic way to learn about the various Polynesian cultures in and around Hawaii. Everyone was friendly. The different areas had different shows to share their culture. Most of the employees are college students from the different Polynesian areas and families. Due to Covid restrictions and timing, we were not able to attend a luau. When we return to Hawaii we will go here again (it is hard to fit it all in, in a day) and also do the luau. This was the best money we spent on the island. I'd give it 10 stars if I could! We prepurchased entry with the Veltra passes and it worked great. Moved right to the front of the line and no worries about getting in.
