Best Luau Ever!
Reviewed by: Tiffany D, 2019/06/23I am so glad we decided to go to this Luau. The dancers were amazing, food terrific, and the gentleman who was leading the show was hilarious! I would definitely recommend this luau if you’re wanting a traditional Hawaiian luau. The announcer takes you through all the islands, explains the dances, and even teaches you how to say hello in Tahitian/Samoan/Hawaiian.

Amazing show! Delicious Food!
Reviewed by: ALucero, 2019/03/25This was a great show last time I came to Kauai I went to Smith's and this was by far a better show. For one it was on the beach like a luau should be, The pork was delicious, not as strong tasting flavor like some. They had chicken as well. Salad, mac salad, desserts were delish, pineapple upside down cake. Yummmm! The food was amazing the dancers were awesome the singing was beautiful. The fire performer was freaking AMAZING! My 7 year old Granddaughter was engaged the whole show. Thanks to all the performers! Not to mention this was a great deal! Thanks again!

Great Luau
Reviewed by: Pauline, 2019/02/19The Luau Makaiwa was a fantastic experience. We visited the island in February and were greeted by lot of rain during the majority of our trip. Luckily, the Luau is inside a giant tent outside and by the water. The buffet food at the Luau was tasty! I wish there were more options for entrees and desserts however. Open bar had wine, beer, and mai tais. It was my boyfriend and I's first Luau and we both had a great time. This is a smaller production Luau which in many ways could be a great thing. Every table had a good view of the stage and it had a smaller family vibe rather than an extravagant production like the other luaus on the island. There were some vendors and activities planned but there could have been more in my opinion. The musicians and dancers were funny and talented. The performances were both entertaining and educational encompassing all of Polynesian culture. I can see this being a great activity for families who want to avoid the crazy crowds at the other Luaus and still get a authentic experience.

Luau
Reviewed by: Jana Rackley, 2019/01/06This was my first Luau and wow what a great experience. I attended with my Mother. The place where the Luau was beautiful, although I wish it was slightly closer to the ocean!!
It was awesome to have vendors there, I got myself the cutest turtle necklace I had seen on the island.
The table where we were placed was directly mid stage which was perfect for the performances. The company at the table was also great. The food was delicious, desert was just ok. Open bar of Mai tais was of course amazing.
The performers were by far my favorite. So much beauty in the dancing, instruments, singing and their attire.
I was so happy to find this deal and was very impressed with my very first Luau.

The Maka’iwa luau
Reviewed by: Ileene Lipkin , 2018/12/14What a fabulous time. Food entertainment and ambiance was just wonderful. In the past I have been to many luaus throughout the Hawaiian islands and I can honestly say this was the best.
Don’t miss this show in Kapa’a at the marriot. I happen to be a very particular eater and I loved the food.

Great Smaller Kid-Friendly Luau!
Reviewed by: Tesh Khullar, 2018/11/19We have been to 2 other luaus on other Hawaiian islands and this was the best by far. We have 2 boys (9 and 7 year old) and the others we went to were way too large. This one was perfect size and had really nice activities for the kids (that the folks that ran them encouraged kids to do). In addition, the luau made sure our kids sat in the front of the table to have good views. We drove about 35 mins to get to this luau but was worth it and highly recommend it for those that are looking for an outing with kids.

Wonderful luau!
Reviewed by: R and D, 2018/11/13We thoroughly enjoyed this luau! The singers, musicians, and dancers are all outstanding. Hula master Halao o Leilani does a beautiful job telling the stories of the islands through a variety of performances. It is a smaller venue for a luau and there was not a bad seat in the house. The luau is set in a big white open-aired tent along the shores of the Coconut Coast. We enjoyed walking around the grounds before the luau began. There was plenty of food and desserts and lots of refreshments. There are bottomless mai tais, beer, wine, and soda from 5:30 to 7pm. Be advised that the beverages are no longer served after 7pm. The performance goes until ~8:30pm. The mood at the luau was upbeat and celebratory and we were so glad we went!
