Maui
The Te Au Moana Luau at the Wailea Marriott was a wonderful way to celebrate New Year’s Day in Maui. The oceanfront setting was beautiful, especially at sunset, and the premium seating gave us a great view of the entire stage and performances.
Very unique experience and such a fun way to get out on the water! Easy to pedal and our guide shared lots of history and stories with us. Perfect way to start a beautiful day in Maui.
It can be a little choppy, so recommend non drowsy Dramamine if you get motion sickness.
Was not worth the price. Food was soap, Polynesian show- a guy playing a guitar and singing that you could hardly hear, hula dancer so mediocre. Not what we expected. Would not have paid over $100
Find something else. Don’t waste your money
Great food and host at our table! Beautiful night along the ocean. Dancers and costumes fantastic.
We really enjoyed watercycling. The fellows did an amazing job of getting us into and out of the water. We definately would go again. The cycles were easy to pedel and felt safe.
The 6 of us in our group had a wonderful time at this luau.
The meal was excellent and the performances of the dancers and others was quite memorable.
A bit expensive, but as a unique experience for the family, well worth it
Perhaps the placement of some signage leading to the luau from the parking garage would be good.
This was my second luau. The performances were spectacular. Unfortunately, the service was poor and the food was mediocre. For the price of our group of 10, I would not do it again.
Really loved this experience for being my first time on a water bike. The water bikes felt even easier to ride than a kayak!
I am now a HUGE fan of these bikes. I just booked this tour to keep my husband busy and It was the perfect way to start our vacation. K since I can’t remember is beautiful name was an awesome guide. My husband and I were the only ones that signed up for that particular day and to have the guide all to ourselves was a special treat. K was so informative and kept up or slowed down to our pace and we got to hang with the turtles in the area.
I highly recommend adding this water bike tour to your itinerary.
When you get to the Makena Landing parking lot just got a little further around to the next cove
Don't worry that it's your first time snorkeling! John will kindly teach you how to drive a kayak, jump out of the middle of the ocean in a kayak and snorkel! If you have a waterproof phone case, it will help you take pictures of beautiful scenery and marine animals during your activities. You can meet monkseals, turtles, cute various fish, and octopus up close! Don't miss the best experience!
I have participated in this kind of entertainment during my stays on the Big Island of Hawaii, but the show during my stay on Maui was the best. This time, the first half was centered around hula dancing, while the second half focused on Polynesian dances rooted in Samoa and Tahiti. The dancers' skills were high, and the woman who hosted the show and performed Hawaiian songs had an amazing singing ability. During an audience participation interview, we were asked about the secrets to our long marriage, which really got everyone excited. At our table, there was an American couple on their honeymoon, and when we congratulated them from the other members at the table, it created a wonderful sense of unity among everyone, making it the best dinner experience.
これまでもハワイ島でのステイの際にこの種のエンタメに参加しましたが、今回のマウイ島での滞在でのショーは最高でした。今回は前半がフラダンスを中心に構成され、後半はサモアやタヒチ等をルーツとするポリネシアンダンスが中心でしたが、ダンサーのスキルが高く、かつ、ショーの司会とつなぎのハワイアン歌唱を担当していた女性の歌唱力も素晴らしかったです。そして観客を巻き込んでのインタビューでは、我々も結婚歴の長い秘訣をインタビューされ、随分と盛り上がりました。同じテーブルには新婚旅行中のアメリカ人カップルが同席していて、彼らにもテーブルの他のメンバーからお祝いを送ると、テーブル全員が一体感で包まれ、最高のディナーになりました。
You can manage your lack of English skills. First, build friendships with your table members!
英語力の不足は何とかなります。先ずは同じテーブルのメンバーとの友好を❗️

My family had a great time, it is early in the morning so just make sure to have your muscles read nice and early!
Lovely location, fabulous food, super service, entertaining entertainment. We are glad we had premium seating. But, every seat is fantastic.
Elderly people will need to arrange a cart to and from.
We stayed at Marriott and enjoyed the premium upgrade for the luau so much!!
Nice and easy water cycling, first time doing it but caught on quick!
Enjoyed Food and Ambience and Show, Actual Show could have been little longer not including the dinner time.
Amazing experience food was delicious the performance was fantastic everything was great
Aloha Abraham,
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience and your glowing review! We are so happy to hear that you had a great time and will pass on your accolades for the meal to the hotel. Mahalo!
We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our entire family in Maui and this was one of the first activities we all participated in. We have a 12-year-old down syndrome granddaughter who loved the Polynesian dancing and actually stood up and danced with the dancer on board. It was such a dear Experience to observe. The wonderful gentleman on the guitar played a very special song for my husband and myself by Rod Stewart called…..Have I told you lately. Even though it was very windy we had a great experience!
We had an absolute blast on the sunset cruise. The staff was increíble, you can tell they truly love what they do. From the drinks to the show, everything was fantastic.
Was a great experience, beautiful and fun! Would recommend
A great experience. Food was delicious and entertainment was amazing
John was an awesome guide. Perfect excursion, we got to swim with turtles, touched an octopus and watched a Manta Ray swim beneath us. Excellent tour !!!
Great time. Loved the personalized attention to all but especially how they were so sweet to a special needs guest. I highly recommend.
Great way to spend a morning on the beautiful blue water of Wailea. We saw turtles swimming around us, whales off in the distance, and held a pencil urchin. The guys that run this are so nice and knowledgeable. Highly recommend them.
We really enjoyed the kayak and snorkel trip from Makena Beach - there was also excellent support from our guide !!!!
The dinner was delicious it was family style, the luau was informative and really cool to see. But I’d say it was over priced like everything in Hawaii
The crew is exceptional! You might be turned off initially that the crew is also performing but don’t be. They’re so good and very much a steward of the culture. They’re extremely talented, entertaining and my wife and I loved every minute of it! The food was good, the atmosphere was obviously amazing (it’s Maui). The captain is a super chill guy, he does a brief education of the islands that was super interesting and informative. I can’t say enough good things about this dinner cruise. To top is off the crew involved some of the guests in the show and everyone was just having a great time.
I highly recommend this activity, you won’t regret it!
John Hess was fabulous. Our whole family had the most amazing time. After talking about our week every one of us said this was an activity we would do again especially if we could have John as our guide.
We had a great time in this tour! All the staff are very nice and entertaining. We would go again!
Food was great. Service was great. Unlimited drinks Kept flowing & I actually stopped drinking before the bar closes. I tried the Poi for the first time & it was yummy. Love the photo options they had.
