All Reviews for @Things to do near your resort

First of all the Hyatt Regency Maui is an amazingly beautiful property right on the water and the Luau location is lovely as well - Makes you feel like you are tucked away in a private beach cove. The food was great especially the Ulupalakua Beef and the Taro Dinner Rolls. Our server brought us drinks all night and we loved the vibrant costumes and the fire dancer at the end of the show.

The service was wonderful. Anyone booking should know before hand that the stairs going above/beow decks is difficult for anyone with walking difficulties (with a cane). Food was very well prepared.
Comments from the entertainer regarding what we are passing as we cruise along the coast would be beneficial. But, it was very good music.

The ocean was beautiful and the environment was very nice, but I felt that it was tough since almost no one on Maui speaks Japanese, so you need to have at least a basic level of English for everyday conversations.

海はきれいでとても環境はよかったのですが、マウイ島はほとんど日本語が通じないので日常会話程度の英語ができないときびしいと感じました。

you folks do know how to give a great luau. the food was absolutely onolicious especially the lomi lomi, purple potatoes and kalua pig plus all the rest. went back for lomi......!!! you have a great chef!!

now the entertainment.....great!!! your dancers were outstanding, beautiful and handsome. costumes beautiful. i would attend at least every other month if i could. but live on the mainland and now.....air prices too high. really happy that my grand daughter and i were able to make this one.

mahalo for a great job. malama pono........

We read some comments about this luau being crowded, so we were expecting really small venue. I think the venue was good size. I guess if you are used to taking up so much space for yourself, you feel very tight, but we were very comfortable. The dancers were awesome, and foods were well prepared. We stayed in Kaanapali, so it was walking distance from our hotel. It's worth it. I'd recommend it to my friends.

The Maui Sunset Luau at the Maui Price Makena Resort was outstanding. The food the delicious and the atmosphere most entertaining. We enjoyed it very much!

I was not happy about the start and end time of the experience. The entire event was over by 8pm, and it was barely dark. The food and the drinks were as expected... good. The performers were very good, but the show lacked the level of audience involvement that I've seen at other events.

This was my first time snorkeling. The guide made it easy and fun. I want to do it again!

We had a great time. It was a bit crowded, but the entertainment was spectacular. Mahalo!

This luau was incredible, how they are able to move this fast is amazing along with the wonderful assortment of foods & desserts!!

Saw plenty of whales with the closest ones coming within 70ft of the boat. The boat was comfortable and viewing was not a problem. The Captain's banter helped make it a very enjoyable trip.

My kids could not stop screaming when they saw the impressive breaching. My 5-year-old twins fell in love with the whales. I'm so glad that we took this excursion. Thanks for the good time. Great value!

Attended with my wife on our honeymoon. No Pina Colada's or frozen drinks but i can understand that at an open bar in such a large venue. Server was very good about making sure we all had drinks though. Food was excellent. Dessert was average, but I was really full off all the good food anyway so I didn't mind. The show was very good and the highlight of the night was definitely the fire dancer. Overall a good luau, but there are better out there (although I'm sure they cost more).

THE STAFF AT MAUI KAYAKS DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. WE WERE ABLE TO SEE TONS OF TROPICAL FISH AND SEA TURTLES. WILL COME BACK TO DO THIS AGAIN.

I participated in a tour without pick-up on January 24 at 9 AM. We boarded a small boat and listened to explanations inside the submarine as we made our way to it. It took about 15 minutes, but the view of the island from the sea was very beautiful, and since it was January, we were able to see whales as well.

We transferred to the submarine on the water. The boarding order started with a large group, and I ended up boarding last, sitting right next to the pilot and the guide. Perhaps it was to help solo participants get to know each other?

We looked out through a round window about 40 cm in diameter and 15 cm thick, observing the underwater scenery. With beautiful bubbles, we quickly descended to the seabed, which was a blue world with few colors. We quietly moved towards a spot where many fish could be seen, changing the submarine's direction so that both the people on the right and left could see the fish well, passing through schools of fish, coral, seaweed, and sea urchins. Suddenly, a large fish appeared, and the guide's shout of "sushi fish!" made everyone burst into laughter!

I felt there were fewer fish than expected, but since it was a deep and vast underwater world, they were probably scattered around. The submarine headed towards a sunken ship, and after observing the fish living there, we returned. In the end, I was thrilled to see three rays swimming slowly. I wanted to see a sea turtle, but I was told, "They don't come to such deep places far from land." I wondered why there was a sea turtle depicted in the pamphlet.

We surfaced with bubbles and exchanged groups with the next tour participants before returning to the port.

I was able to have a valuable submarine experience, and while it wasn't 20,000 leagues under the sea, it was wonderful to see a world I couldn't dive into myself. Moreover, it was a tour where I could enjoy the foreign atmosphere with a guide who entertained everyone and fellow participants having fun. Out of 48 people, I was the only Japanese, so I was quite anxious, but there were Japanese explanation materials and audio guides available on board, so it was fine.

Above all, the staff was considerate, allowing me to have a great time. They took photos during boarding, and those who wanted could buy them for $20 when disembarking. The guide made sure to pose with me for a photo since I was participating alone! A short DVD of the submarine experience was also included, making for a wonderful keepsake. I didn't quite understand, but they were selling tickets for $25 on board that allow free rides at any Atlantis for a year.

Staff made you feel very welcome. Excellent food and entertainment. Thank you, we had a great time, and recommend you to others.

We really enjoyed the Maui Prince Luau. This was one of the highlights of our trip. The buffet was excellent, and offered lots of choices, including a nice selection of desserts. The entertainment was exceptional. From the host, to the dancers, to the band, it was all very good, and we'd definitely recomment it to others. We paid extra for premium seating, and it was definitley worth the extra money to be up front.

We both enjoyed the cruise.Food and service was wonderful.We will take the cruise again on our next trip to Maui.

Our guide Kaileo was a true local who whole-heartedly enjoyed sharing his ocean with us. He was extremely knowledgable and went beyond what other 'mass market' tour companies offer. He lead out our small group and took the time to educate us about the reefs and ocean bottom, showing us turtles, octopus, starfish, eels and countless fish. (allowing us to even hold the octopus and starfish if we so desired!) I'd certainly go back again when in Maui and would reccomend this trip to anyone who is comfortable with the open ocean. Mahalo!

The main courses of chicken & steak lacked quality. The fish however was excellent.

We would highly recommend this adventure to everyone. The guide was awesome and made the experience just wonderful. We had a group of 8 which was really nice.

Our guide Cal....... (Hawaiian name) was supurb. We went the year before but this year was diferent because this guy made our trip exceptional. He was with us every minute, dived to bring us up a octupus and taught us about marine life. No laziness. If we go again it will be because of this guide.

Thanks,

R. Singer

Good food, unlimited drinks, great entertainment (variety of dances both males and females), great host and service. The only complaint I have is that the seating was horrible. The seats were literally right up against each other so you don't have much arm or leg room. It was hard to get in and out of your seat because they were so close together. Overall wonderful experience! They even ask you if you want shaded or sun seating.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Kayak lessons and putting what we learned into practice. It was a bonus spotting the beautiful sea turtles while snorkeling.

Best vacation we ever took.

Everything was awesome! The guide was very knowledgable and the snorkeling was great!

The Luau was awesome. The show was beyond my expectation. I had no prevoius experience with a luau before and it was way beyond what I expected. The hula girls can definiteley move their hips more than you can imagine. The guys were very entertaining, especially the one that was really into it, by yelling with enthusiasim and twitching his eyebrows to make you pay direct attention to him, he was the hit of the show besides the Samoan import that performed an excellent fire show.

The food was above average, would of been better if the pork wasn't dry, try medium next time. But food is hard to control some times when you have over 500 people to serve. Other than that it was awesome. Can't remember the host's name, she did an awaesome job blessing the food. Too many places do not engage in prayer. If you pray and believe in Jesus, he will come thru for you.

I went to Maui with my wife and our two elementary school children. One of the goals of this trip was to show the kids the fish in the ocean, so we participated in a submarine tour.

We took a boat from the harbor in Lahaina to the submarine docking point, and from there we boarded the submarine. Inside the submarine, there were small round windows in front of each seat, allowing us to see into the ocean. Once everyone was on board and we received a brief explanation, we began our descent. Since the depth was displayed in feet, it didn't register immediately, but we quickly reached over 100 feet (about 30 meters) below the surface, and the underwater exploration began. The seabed was sandy, with few corals and fish. The kids were excited to see a sea urchin, but my wife and I were a bit disappointed. However, after a while, we arrived at a coral that seemed to be a large fish habitat, where we encountered a school of brightly colored fish (I forgot their names) swarming around the coral. This was incredibly exciting for all of us—my wife, the kids, and me. It was the first time in my life I had seen such a large school of fish.

The underwater exploration continued as we moved to the next fish habitat, where we encountered a different school of shimmering silver tropical fish, and once again, the whole family was thrilled. Finally, we were lucky enough to see a manta ray gracefully swimming by, almost as if it were flying.

After the dive, my son said on the boat heading back to the harbor, "Let's come to Maui every year to see the fish!" I felt relieved, knowing we had achieved the purpose of this trip. I am truly grateful to Atlantis Submarines for providing us with such a wonderful experience.

妻と小学生の子供たちと4人でマウイに行ってきました。今回の旅の目的のひとつは、子供たちに海の中の魚を見せてあげることだったので、潜水艦ツアーに参加しました。

ラハイナの港からボートで沖の潜水艦の停泊ポイントまで行き、そこから潜水艦に乗り込みました。潜水艦の中には、小さな丸い窓が一人一人の席の前にあり、そこから海の中を見ることができる構造になっていました。全員が乗り込み、簡単な説明を聞き、潜水開始、フィート表示なので、すぐにピンと来ませんでしたが、あっという間に100フィート（30Mぐらい）超の海底に達し、そこから、海底散策が始まりました。海底は砂地で、珊瑚も魚も少なく、子供たちは、うにを見て喜んでいましたが、私と妻はがっかり。しかし、しばらくすると、大きな魚の棲家のような珊瑚にたどり着き、その珊瑚に群がる大群の鮮やかな色の魚たち（名前忘れました）に遭遇。これには、さすがに、妻も私も子供たちも大興奮。人生の中で始めてあんなにたくさんの大群の魚を見ました。そして、さらに、海底散策は続き、次の魚の棲家へ、そこでは、さっきの棲家と違う銀色に光る熱帯魚の大群に出会うことができ、またしても、家族全員大興奮。そして、最後は、ラッキーなことに、マンタ（エイの一種？）が優雅に空を飛ぶように泳いでいく姿も間近に見られました。

潜水を終え、息子が港に向かうボートの中で、「毎年、マウイに来てお魚を見る！」といったことで、私は、今回の旅の目的を達したとほっとする思いでした。こんなに素晴らしい体験をさせてくれたアトランティス潜水艦には本当に感謝です。

Although our trip was near the end of the whale watching season, it actually worked out well for us, as we saw two males fighting over a female in desperation, before they began the trek back up north

Staff was very informative and kept us interested with facts about the Humpback until we saw the escort breach for the 1st time. Then it was very exciting as this escort breached several more times, did flukes slaps and sky hopping to the oohs and aahs of everyone on board. My wife and I have been whale watching numerous tmes but this was the best trip we have been on.
