Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
Kamika Smith
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
The Luau at Smith's Tropical Paradise was very nice. I was impressed with the multitude of talents on display by the staff, such as Kamika Smith managing, cracking jokes, singing, and even serving coffee - he seemed to be everywhere. My wife, her mother and I really enjoyed the food, music and show. It was a very pleasant evening.
The one thing I would say had room for improvement was the mai tai punch - it was 1 or 2 % abv at most, 4 or 5 % abv would have been better.
We would be happy to return next time we are on Kauai. Overall our trip was a lot of fun and very relaxing - just what we needed.

Smith's Family Luau
Reviewed by: TheTexas Nicholas'
WHAT A TREAT!! We went to the Luau after visiting the Fern Grotto and had the perfect ending to a perfect day! We had a lei greeting then boarded the tram that took us along the winding path so we could see the beautiful gardens, lush tropical trees, lovely scenery. After walking around the grounds, we all gathered at the in-ground oven to view the digging up of the roasted Imu (pig). Then everyone went to the lovely dining area where we all enjoyed tropical drinks and the delicious feast. During dinner, Hawaiian entertainers performed traditional Hawaiian music, singing, and hulas. Children were invited onstage to learn the hulas so it was great fun to watch!! Following the feast, everyone went to the grand outdoor theater to witness the torch lighting and a spectacular Polynesian music production where each of the Islands presented dramatic traditional hulas and music. It is great family fun, not to be missed!!

Smith's Kauai Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto with Live Entertainment
Good Family Fun
Reviewed by: The Nicholas'
As first-timers to the Fern Grotto, my husband and I had a great time!The boat ride, hula instruction, music, and entertainment were typically Hawaiian, which is just what we wanted to experience! We took the 3:30 Fern Grotto trip so we could follow it up with the Smith's Family Luau (in the same location). The Luau cuisine was great followed by a spectacular music production professionally presented providing us with a greater understanding of the traditions and heritage of the Polynesian culture. WHAT A SHOW! We recommend BOTH of these for your family and friends. You will not be disappointed!!

We enjoyed the cruise and the beautiful flowers and foliage but were disappointed at the actual "Grotto" since we couldn't see inside the cave. We weren't aware of this until we were at the site.

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
Beautiful grounds and good food!
Reviewed by: Michelle
We had a fabulous time here at the Luau! The food was really good, especially in comparison the luau at the Polynesian Center on Oahu. However, the show wasn't as good as the Poly center. You can also walk the grounds before the luau and then see them dig up the pig for dinner. The grounds were gorgeous. We even got to see a runaway pig! He somehow snuck out of the pen and they hadn't been able to catch him. The Flora all around the gardens were just magnificent! Definitely a must see!

Reviewed by: bushes
First I would recommend paying the extra $5 to go into the Gardens early. You will want to spend more time looking around than the time after the tram ride permits since it is so beautiful. The welcome was great and the tram ride was a treat and the setting for the dancing was gorgeous. I've never been to a luau before so I don't know how it compares to others, but we thouroughly enjoyed it. The dinner portion felt like a wedding reception and it was fun to have an opportunity to learn the hula.

Smith's Family Garden Luau - Polynesian & Fire Show, Dinner and Open Bar
Best Luau
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
I can not say one bad thing about Smith's Luau. Everything they did was above average. The tour of their tropical paradise was wonderful. The imu was authentic and they do a wonderful job of making it special. The food was amazing, especially the pork, mahi mahi, and the rice pudding. The entertainment during the meal was fantastic and really got the crowd involved. Last the show was probably the best part. It was an amazing experience and probably one of our favorite experiences while we were on Kauai and definitely the best value.

The people who run Smith's are GREAT! They are very thoughtful and they make the whole night worth it. The servers went out of their way to help us with my husband's disability issues. They have great food and plenty of it! You will not go away hungry. The show was teriffic.
We were very happy that we went and will go back another time in the future. If you have a large party you can reserve your table space in advance.

I have been to Hawaii 3 times now, and gone to a different luau each time. I have to say Smith's was the best one yet. The grounds are beautiful with plenty to see and lots of photo oppotunities. The food was great with friendly, prompt staff, and the show was spectacular. Smith's Luau is a must!

Beautiful Time

Smith's Luau was a wonderful experience for us. I brought my daughter and 3 grandsons ages 9, 10, and 12, and we all enjoyed it. The grounds are perfect, the staff is very professional, and the show was excellent. The food was great, it was the best pig I have ever eaten. When I go back to Kauai, I will definately go back for another of the Smiths' Family Luau. Thanks for having us and sharing your beautiful grounds with us.

Lehua Crater & Na Pali Coast Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks
Time of our lives!!
Reviewed by: Trussel's
My family is still talking about the exceptional, exciting, fantastic trip that we took to Niihau. The snorkeling was the best that we have ever seen- clear blue water, lots of fish and plenty of time to snorkel. The colors of the water were incomparable- sapphire blue, azure, teal,aquamarine and garnet green-spectacular. The service and the crew were great- they really knew all about the islands and they were experts on snorkeling.
We would go again in a heartbeat!!
