we spent the day kayaking the Wailua River and this was the perfect cap on a perfect day. The gardens are lovely, the luau food I assume is typical for luau food, which isn't exactly to mainland tastes, but we didn't really go for the food anyway. It was delightfully entertaining, with lovely dancing. It was my first luau so I don't have much to compare it to, but had heard about this one, so we tried it. I would recommend it to anyone, it is a good value for the moneye.

This was a great experience. We did the Fern Grooto tour just before the luau and had a totally wonderful experience. I would definately recomend this to anyone.

We really enjoyed the entertainment aboard the boat. It was nice to see the fern grotto even if it wasn't as spectacular as the picture shown. Mother Nature has a way of changing things.

This is the second time I have taken this cruise, and I remember it being better before. Granted, part of the reason is not being able to go up to the actual Fern Grotto (one was able to walk through it before). It is a very pretty site, but I'm not sure that it is worth the price.

The boat ride was very relaxing with the great music, and the grotto itself was gorgeous. cant wait to go back and see it again.

I have been to the Smith's Luau many times as a couple and with family and friends over the years. As a child I went to the Fern Grotto with members of the Smith family on their private boat long before it became commercialized. I highly recommend these activities to anyone. The entire family makes everyone feel a personalized welcome and are anxious to make your occasion very special.

This was a great luau -- more than we had hoped for, considering we thought the luau we attended on Maui was going to be best out there (it turned out to be a tie). The Smith family certainly knows how to treat its guests. Not only did you get a wonderful tram ride around the estate (to check out the beautiful peacocks and lush landscape), you got a great meal followed by a wonderful show. We were very impressed.

日本からハワイへ、さらにカウアイ島へ飛んできたその日の午後に参加しました。時差ぼけの状態なので子どもも連れてのハワイ初日はこのぐらいの穏やかなアクティビティがちょうどよかったです。
同じ敷地内にある、「ハワイ伝統饗宴ルアウと神聖な儀式イム!スミス・トロピカル・パラダイス・ルアウ」と組み合わせてもよかったかもしれません。私たち家族はカウアイ島最終日にルアウを分けて見ましたが、同じ船に乗っている人の中では、この船の後に夕食とルアウのショーを見る予定である人が結構いました。
シダの洞窟はきれいでしたが、家族みんな蚊に刺されました。虫除けを塗っての参加をお奨めします。

ルアウショーの前に、トラムに乗って園内を見学するのですが、
色んなテーマ別の庭園になっていて、広いお庭でした。
食事については、普通かな…という感想です。
肝心のショーは、ハワイアン以外にポリネシアや中国・日本を表した踊りもあり、
ちょっと変わった面白さもありましたが、ハワイのリピーターで、
ワイキキあたりで他のルアウショーみたことある方だと、物足りないかもしれません。
私は、ハワイアン・タヒチアンフラを期待していたので、ちょっと物足りなかったです。
でもファイヤーダンスはやっぱり盛り上がりますし、カウアイ島に来たのなら
1度はここのルアウ観ておくとよいかなと思います。
数少ない、カウアイの夜の娯楽ですしね。
終わった後、ダンサーの方と写真を撮ってもらえるショーもありますが、
ここは撮る機会はなかったです。
入園の時、撮ってくれた写真($20)買ってしまいました。

17時から1時間は電動トラムにのってもいいし、歩いてもガーデンを散策する時間で、時間がない方は18時までに会場にはいればいいかんじです。神聖な儀式のイム(豚を土から掘り出す)をけっこう楽しみにしてたんですが、ほんとに男の人2人で土を掘るだけで別になんだかなという感じでした。参加者はばっとみたかんじ欧米人が大半でした。ツアーの人が多く、イムセレモニーの後、食事をする場所に移動するのですが、さすがに人気と言うだけあって、人が多く、席をさがすのに大変でした。ツアーのお客さんように席がとってあって、個人客は自分で探さないといけないし、外人ばっかりで、席とれないかとおもいました。席につくと、カクテルタイムで、マイタイなどはもうふんだんに作っておいてあって、ビールと各種お好みのカクテルはカウンターで注文して(無料)飲めました。そのあと、列ごとにバイキングの食事をとりに行くのですが、英語の説明なんかまったくわかんなかったので、知らなくて、まだ自分の順番でないのに食事を取ってきてしまいました。食事中はバンドの生演奏があって、いいかんじだけど、ルアウの場所も食事の場所から移動しないといけないので、うかうか食べてられないと思い、早々に次の会場へ移動しました。この会場移動がめんどくさいし、落ち着きませんでした。ルアウは1時間あって、照明を多用したこったステージです。太平洋をはさんで、各国の踊りを踊って、みんな仲良くしようねと言うコンセプトがあって、日本の踊りもあったけど、なぜか曲名はカ~ラスなぜなくの~で、日本人からするとかなりはぁ?っていう内容でした。最後のファイアーダンスだけはすばらしくって、これをもっとみせてほしいなぁと思いました。ルアウをみるというよりショーを見る感じ。伝統的なルアウの内容ではありませんでした。
