If you want a beautiful setting, great food and an organized exciting show then you should pick this luau.
Dancers were all amazing !
The length of time, open 2 hour bar , seating and staff were exceptional as well.
This was not my first luau but it was for my boyfriend and he was impressed with it!

I'm not going complain about the food, it's good but they need to improved their seating and luau stage, you have to be vip to be able to see the performance. All you see it's people's head if you are seated in the middle or back seat. The dancers don't give a chance to take a nice picture. Not recommend unless you pay vip
Happy you enjoyed the food. Sorry to hear you didn't have a great view from your seat. I wish you had said something to a manager so we could have tried to accommodate. We will soon be moving to an elevated stage but have to wait for approval from the county liquor department. Until then we have added elevated seating in the back to help guests be able to see better that are seated in the farthest rows. We also try to put groups with children close to the front so the children can see since they are shorter. We hope you were still able to enjoy the music and show and hope you will give us another chance in the future.

We were visiting Maui for our 50th Wedding Anniversary and celebrating with our 4 children and spouses and 7 Grandkids - 16 total. We wanted a small boating trip that would accomodate everyone's individual ideas of a snorkeling trip - not too long, too many people, too choppy, etc. Then I found Aloha Blue charters online, it sounded perfect. They had a 2 hour private afternoon boat trip available for a reasonable price for the whole boat. Our Captain Larry and assistants Jeren and Sienna were a delightful team that made our trip very memorable. 13 of us were in the water for a little over an hour enjoying the underwater sealife and the others watched and enjoyed themselves on board. I would recommend this "customized" trip (2-4 hours - snorkeling, sightseeing and/or fishing) to all families visiting Maui that don't want what is offered on most of the more expensive trips advertised. We will book again on a return visit. Thanks!, Vicki and Jack

Our awesome tour guide, Clive regaled us with stories of his life there on Lana’i and took us to the Garden of the Gods (looks like Mars landscape), then checked out Shipwreck Beach, visited the Cat Sanctuary and then spent the rest of the afternoon in Hulopo’e Beach.Thank you to Clive for bring friendly, knowledgeable and making us feel like ohana!

The check-in lines were confusing. Not enough clarity on which line was for preferred attendees and which was for general. Stood in the wrong line for 20 minutes before realizing we were in the wrong one. Check-in was about 20 mins late, which added to the frustration. The lawn at the Sheraton was not in great shape which was surprising compared to other times we've visited the property. Drinks were okay but the food and entertainment were very good. Overall, a good time for our families but was hoping for a bit more for the price.

Too many people for the size of the boat. Hot dogs (what can I say). Afternoon is a snorkel near to the coast that is accessible from shore (not their fault except the say they will try to go to Molikini when there is zero chance in the afternoon). Best advice is to get up early if you really want a good snorkel experience and find a boat the is not so crowded.

I took a day trip to Lanai Cat Sanctuary, using the ferry that departs Maui at 6:30 AM and returns from Lanai at 5:30 PM.
Both on the way there and back, you just need to show the reservation email or state your name at the boarding area, and the staff will quickly confirm and issue your ticket using a tablet. The ferry has plenty of seating, and they broadcast what seems to be a local Hawaiian TV station.
I didn't feel much on the way there, but on the return trip, the waves were higher in the evening, causing the ferry to sway significantly, and I experienced severe motion sickness. According to my family, there is a part where the ferry briefly goes out into open water, which can change the tide flow suddenly.
When I immediately told the staff that I felt unwell, they handed me a bag and instructed me to "go out to the deck." Many passengers followed suit, so it seems that motion sickness is quite common. I recommend taking motion sickness medication beforehand.
Once I got to the deck, it was difficult to even reach the restroom, and I spent about 30 minutes hunched over with my face in the bag. However, a crew member, who seemed to be the captain, kindly gave me a bottle of water and said, "Putting this on the back of your neck will help." Unfortunately, I still felt unwell, but I was relieved that the crew was completely accustomed to dealing with seasick passengers and treated everyone calmly and kindly.
It was an intense experience, but despite the mishaps, my trip to Lanai has become a wonderful memory, and I definitely want to visit again. While it seems there is also access by plane, I would absolutely choose to take the ferry again, prepared for motion sickness.
ラナイ・キャット・サンクチュアリ目当ての日帰り旅で、朝6時30分マウイ島発、夕方17時半ラナイ島発の便を利用しました。
行きも帰りも乗り場で予約時のメールを見せるか、名前を名乗るとすぐにスタッフがタブレットで確認して発券してくれます。船内は客席も十分にあり、ハワイのローカル局と思われるTVを放送しています。
行きはあまり感じなかったのですが、帰りは夕方で波が高くなるため大きく船が揺れ、ひどい船酔いを経験しました。家族いわく一瞬外洋に出る部分があるので潮の流れが一瞬で変わってしまうそうです。
すぐに「気分が悪い」とスタッフに伝えると、袋を渡され「デッキに出るといい」と指示されました。私の後にも続々と乗客が出てきたので、かなりの確率で船酔いが起こると思われます。酔い止めを事前に飲んでおくのをお勧めします。
いざデッキに出るとトイレにまでたどり着くことも困難で、ずっと袋に顔を突っ込んだまま30分ほどうずくまっていましたが、船長と思しきクルーの方が「これを首の後ろにつけると気持ちがいいよ」とペットボトルの水をくださいました。あいにくずっと気分は悪いままでしたが、船酔いする乗客にクルーも完全に慣れっこな様子で、皆落ち着いて優しく対応してくれたことにホッとしました。
壮絶な体験ではありましたが、ハプニングも込みでラナイ島行きは最高の想い出で必ず再訪したい場所になりました。飛行機でのアクセスも可能なようですが、船酔い覚悟でまた絶対フェリーで臨みたいです。

Sammie was our pilot, and we were fortunate enough that it was just our family on the flight. She made us all feel extremely welcomed and took the time to learn our names, which made our flight that much better. We also all enjoyed the fact that our pilot was an instructor and a female (the world needs more female pilots) With a smaller group it’s easier to be more open and ask more questions about what you’re seeing. No one in our family has ever ridden on a helicopter, but we have all flown and it was awesome!! Planes can only maneuver so much, but helicopters give you a different look and feel of flying. Regardless of where you are sitting you get the opportunity to see all that nature has to offer firsthand. It’s also nice to know that everything was being videoed so you can spend more time looking and less time trying to capture it on your phone. She also was a wealth of knowledge around all things in Hawaii and offered recommendations on additional things for us to see.
Our tour guide was ready and waiting for us at the airport as we landed from the helicopter tour with Sammie. He was extremely welcoming and easily buildings one on one relationships with people. He had a very rich background of experiences which he easily incorporated into all aspects of the tour. From local language, culture, history, nature, driving habits of locals vs. tourists, and stops to get one of a kind eats (shave ice… not shaved ice) we experienced it all. My family was the only group, so we all got to spread out and experience that limo van. We had a beachside lunch overlooking black sand beach and got to experience local foods and stories of the area. We got time to visit the beach and got some great pics within a lava tube. The beach was a little busy, but we still found a spot. He also had a vast knowledge of everything we drove by and experienced. We were also surprised at how smooth the ride was. We had just done the Garden of the Gods a few days before.
Aloha Jessie,
We are so very happy that you all enjoyed your tour with us. I will be sure to let your pilot and guide know of your wonderful email.

Michael (Mike) was our tour guide and created an exceptional experience for us. He was very welcoming, building rapport almost seemed second nature for him. He knew how to keep the audience engaged during the entire experience. The ride to pick up and start the event was just about the right length of time. I especially liked the fact that he could use a microphone while driving and that everyone in the vehicle could hear him. My family had our eyes opened on the lush landscape, history, and culture that Hawaii has to offer. Mike ensured that every angle was covered, and I honestly wish we could have strapped an audio recorder to him so we could capture all that he had to share. We all had ample time at the stops for swimming and pics. Mike was even nice enough to make an additional jump off the waterfall cliff with my go pro as I wasn’t brave enough to take that plunge. Our only constructive feedback on this event would be to tighten up the “meet up” process at the local shops. We were unsure where or how we needed to check in. Once we saw the white van arrive with the logo we understood.

This was our first experience on Hawaii (ever) and we were ecstatic at the outcome. This event is very well coordinated with scheduling and the showtimes. Since this was our very first time, we also opted for the VIP experiences. My wife, son, and I attended and because we booked online very early, we were at table 2 which was at the stage. Very nice combo of Hawaiian culture, language, meanings, and audience engagement. Food was excellent with multitude of buffet options. My only constructive feedback from this experience would be to reexamine how the check in process is done. Our check in was done in one lone single line and was also rather manual (paper verification and ticketing). Many other VIP ticket holders (ourselves included) found us at the front of the line (standing next to others) asking if we should wait in the line or if we should check in elsewhere. In summary, excellent event that is well worth the time and investment.

Captain Jill, Silas, and Jen provided an amazing trip, complete with hundreds of spinner dolphins passing the boat along the way to Lanai.
The snorkeling near Lanai was incredible, with crystal clear water, beautiful coral, sea turtles, spotted eagle rays, huge schools of fish, and a baby octopus! My family and I could have stayed in that first snorkeling spot all day! All of us would highly recommend this trip. The captain and crew were knowledgeable, professional and fun. It was one of the best snorkeling trips we have ever taken.
Mahalo for snorkeling with us! We're so glad Jill, Silas and Jess were great host and you had an awesome experience with marine encounters! Mahalo for joining us!
