Oahu
Fun evening, lots of different things to do and the show was top notch!
Perfect experience, exactly what I pictures + more!
Be prepared to take a lot of knowledge in! Everyone in our family had plenty of fun!
it was very educational and all the staff were informative and very nice. I highly recommend it.
This is my 3rd time coming here over the years, and it never disappoints it just gets better and better. I highly recommend this experience to everyone. Visiting the different islands was both informative and entertaining. Our buffet dinner was suburb with vast food choices. The show HA was spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed ourself their performance was flawless. Keep up the magnificent work !!
Great communication and met our greeter and baggage claim. Easy and carefree.
Really got to see the island like never before. Was really great.
I received a clear explanation of the history of the Kingdom of Hawaii in Japanese. It was a meet-up at the location, but it was close to the bus stop, and since the area is residential, it was fine. It was my first time doing hula dancing, but they taught it slowly, so I was able to keep up! Making leis was also fun. I highly recommend it!
ハワイ王国の歴史を日本語でわかりやすく説明していただきました。現地集合でしたが、バス停からも近く、周囲は住宅街なので大丈夫でした。フラダンスは初めてでしたが、ゆっくり教えてくださったので、ついていくことができました!レイ作りも楽しかったです。お勧めです!
My family and I had such an amazing time at this Luau. Felt so welcomed, the staff was so friendly and organized. Really appreciated the digital photos included and the veggie dish I received was so yummy!
We enjoyed every minute of the three event. The musicians, dancers, actors, MC, catering and art vendors were first rate. My parents and kids enjoyed the event. We would come again!
Good for all ages, our family was laughing and it was a good way to get everyone together :)
Much to learn about all of Polynesian in 1 day! Would go again
The entertainment was superb!!! The food, however, was cold, undercooked, and no flavor. I do understand the institutional food prep, but it could have been better.
This was a brilliant adventure, from the moment you get in line to enter and get your lei, to when you find yourself on stage dancing the Hula. The activities are great with a number of free cultural classes in the “kitchen” and around the grounds. Great photo opportunities as the sun sets, with great shots of the ocean, the city if Honolulu, and the mountain ranges.
I would recommend this for any other couple, or family regardless if there are or are not children.
We had Cousin Elaine and she went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and enjoyed our tour. She taught us a lot about the culture and history of the islands. She made the tour more personal by remembering our names and by calling us her ohana. This was one of the best tours I’ve been on, we got to stop and see a lot of the northern part of the island.
Really awesome experience, the workers give it their all!
The experience was awesome! We got to learn and experience a lot of what the native Polynesian cultures were like. Many of the staff are actually university students who help fund most of their education through working here so that is nice to know.
The Buffet was the biggest Buffet hall and selection that I have ever seen- there was live music too and it was all just beautiful. The food was really good too!
The Fire Dance show was just an amazing performance. All the people responsible for making this were so skilled. It looked like everyone was having a great time.
It was a lot of fun to return to my childhood and try various things after a long time. The shops outside had many different items compared to Waikiki, and shopping was enjoyable as well. I want to go again!
久々に童心に返りいろんな事に挑戦したりととても楽しかったです。
外のショップもワイキキとは違う物が沢山売っていて買い物も楽しかったです。
また、行きたいです!
The venue was awesome, the traditional showcases were great, and it was a sweet cultural journey through islands of Polynesia.
It was an outstanding show, good food, and the hosts were excellent with a good sense of humor. The best Luau we've ever seen.
Anyone who plans to visit Hawaii must see the show- Breath of life. It’s one hr thirty minutes long but it’s worth every minute of it.
The Gateaway buffet has plenty of dishes to offer and we had like 2:30hr to savor the food. My favorite was Tuna Sashimi, cut fresh from a fish on display. Every station has four different varieties of dish.
The villages are fantastic. Each one is unique in terms of activities and entertainment. Staff were mainly Uni students.
I have 5 star rating to PCC.
The park is a lot, I would say to get a guide as we were confused, but the show was a great ending,
The luau was entertaining and informative. The food was good too. Staff did a good job of moving 500 people through the lines. Only two watered down drink tickets. The free choices were only offered at one stand. For 500 people. Not enough.
I enjoyed the pictures on arrival. I think more opportunities for pictures would have been good.
Amazing and warm welcoming staff on every corner; the performances are top notch, we were entertained to a great FINALE show, Buffet Dinner was overwhelming!
We loved and enjoyed learning a lot of things about the Polynesian culture! All the performances were just by fat the best. I love the activities in each country that you can participate in, hands on and fun too!
My son is a typical “everything boring” esp by the wnd of the day, but as soon as the lights went off for the “HA” show he was mesmerized and totally enjoyed it.
We wanted to experience the LUAU dinner but I think we did not look through good enough with the package we bought. Buffet Dinner was not bad at all…just missed seeing a traditional lu’au
Next time!
After experiencing many luau all across Hawaii, I can happily say that Mauka Warriors is one of the best I have had the pleasure of attending~
Pick-up from Waikiki was hella convenient, and even though we hit traffic on the way to the luau, the guide was great about keeping everyone informed and telling us interesting facts, history, and stories about Hawaii.
Once we arrived, we were greeted with a fresh flower lei (get the Mo'i Experience y'all!) and were escorted to the front row!!! WHOOO! With so many activities to do, and being able to order drinks from our phone made it a great start to the whole evening.
The food at Mauka Luau was pretty tasty too, and I loved that they had both poi and lomi lomi salmon, but their fish was the highlight of the menu for both me and my friend.
But the main event was def the Mauka Warriors Luau show, and omg...it was amazing. The fire knife dancing was some of the best I have seen in all of Hawaii, and even the kids were literally fire on stage, but I really loved that they incorporated Hawaiian and Polynesian warrior culture and history into a story rather than just a bunch of random songs and dances.
10/10 would definitely recommend!

Charismatic host and thrilling performances by men, women and children representing the different island nations/territories. Food is buffet style with many tasty options. Alcohol free options were also available and enjoyable.
This was our second time in a decade visiting, and we were impressed by the displays, knowledge of the staff and the Breath of Life show.
This is an excellent opportunity to experience Polynesian culture.
Thank you for your feedback.
The staff member who met us was constantly in contact with my via text, easy to locate and very nice.
Aloha Monica! Thank you for reaching out to us about your greeter, Jenna! We are glad she was able to provide your lei to you at the carousel. She is awesome, and we truly hope this kick-started your vacation. It is with great hopes that you all had a wonderful time on the island! Mahalo Nui!
The show was very entertaining and the dinner buffet was amazing , the Island shows are very entertaining as well we had a remarkable time, the weather was very pleasant but the rain started right after the show was over and we got wet on our way to the bus, even that was a lot of fun .
thank you for your feedback!
I had a amazing time!! Definitely recommend it to the employees of the condo we were staying at for future recommendations it was great learning about the culture
