Reviewed by: Danita Docka , 2024/03/10The meal was lacking in authentic Hawaiian foods. The drinks were too sweet.

Luau (not on a beach)
Reviewed by: Colorado, 2023/09/16Entertainment was great! Everyone was very nice. Pictures were awesome. It was not all you could eat and drink. The food was cafeteria style and put away before we could get seconds. Desert was basic. Not at all what we expected at a luau.
Where is the pig on a spit?? Fresh fruits and vegetables from the island?
Definitely should’ve done more research before attending a Luau. If you want a Beach Luau, this is not the one for you. If you wanna plantation in Luau, where the people are friendly, and the food is average, this is your place!

Fun
Reviewed by: Good time!, 2023/01/25Good time! This was my first Luau, and it was very enjoyable. Very professional establishment and they put the dinner and show on without a glitch.

Happy
Reviewed by: Jonathan, 2017/08/22We had a good time, but if there was one thing I would change would be the ending. It felt like the beginning it had a lot of excitement but the end it all went down. Great customer service by the way except from one of the venders selling in graved rocks.

Luau kind of felt commercialized
Reviewed by: Candice, 2017/08/21Dinner was good, hot no breeze because of how patios is positioned, show was good but because it being under a metal building kind of took the authentic in Hawaii feel away. I think having one out doors with a pretty back drop is the way to go

Great show.
Reviewed by: Crystal, 2017/08/17The food was alright, but the show was amazing! A very nice facility and staff. The train ride was fun and informative. The show was the best part of the night though.

Luau
Reviewed by: NLKTravel, 2016/11/19Pros: I added the optional transfer for $12pp and it was nice to have someone else drive since drinks were included. This was a large tour bus with plenty of room. When you arrive, you are greeted with a flower lei. Some local venders were selling hand made items, spices, photos, and nuts. The grounds are well kept with a flower lei greeting. The food was very good and you could go back for seconds. The dancers and show was one of the best I have seen.
Cons: If you drive yourself, arrive early so you can find parking. Paying for the "Plantation Owner's Evening" I thought we should have been sitting closer and I didn't feel like I was being treated like an "Owner". See the photo I attached of how far back we were from the show. For some reason, our bartender was not having a good day and was basically being grumpy. I hope his attitude changed later.

Well organised and tasty food.
Reviewed by: Laura, 2015/05/20Had to wait for 25 minutes on arrival in a queue to 'check in', once inside we didn't realise how big the area was. Markets, no lines at the bar, the buffet was well organised and entertainment was good. Not an intimate affair, hundreds of people but well worth the price.

Luau Kalamaku at Kilohana Plantation
Reviewed by: George Carr, 2015/03/10The train ride was very nice. Enjoyed seeing the plantation. The show was wonderful. The story behind the show was much better that the traditional Luau show of various dancers.

1st timers
Reviewed by: Jcutch, 2013/08/03Before the show, my kids enjoyed getting their first Jagua skin art (similar to henna) from a local artist. Some of the show's performers had booths selling jewelry and crafts as well. The drinks were stiff, however, the food was on the mediocre side. The show itself was great and was enjoyed by all. The dancers were very friendly and welcoming. Overall great experience!
