Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club

Poor performance

Reviewed by: Bc

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

Reply from activity provider

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.

Maui Nui Sunset Luau on Kaanapali Beach with Open Bar at Sheraton Resort

Nice Experience

Reviewed by: Fast Ronnie

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.

Hana by Air & Land - Helicopter Flight & Semi-Private Sightseeing Tour Combo

Great day to explore Hawaii!!

Reviewed by: Jessie

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.

Drums of the Pacific Luau with Open Bar at Kaanapali Hyatt Regency Maui

Great event to experience Hawaii!!

Reviewed by: Jessie

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.

5-Hour Lanai Snorkel Tour, Dolphin Watching & Breakfast - Hawaii Ocean Rafting

Amazing snorkeling near Lanai

Reviewed by: Jeannie T.

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.

Good experience overall

Reviewed by: Kim

Was not my first luau but it had been awhile. It was a very nice venue with great views. Entertainment was good. Staff was nice and service was good. The food was only fair and not a lot of it for the price you paid. I will say it was overpriced. Not sure any dinner show should cost over $200/person.

Maui Kapalua Bay Snorkeling & Underwater Scooter Tour - Eco Sea Scooter

Fantastic Experience!

Reviewed by: Christine and Jason

Barbie is an incredibly knowledgeable and experienced guide. She also makes sure you feel comfortable and prepared in the water. The scooters are easy to use, and I highly recommend paying a bit extra for the floatation wet suits (for ease and extra warmth in the water) and the go pro for must have videos!
We thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling with Barbie! We saw numerous fish, bright coral, turtles and a monk seal! It was a memory to last a lifetime. If you are inexperienced, do not hesitate to take this tour!

Aloha Christine and Jason and Warmest Mahalo for your Amazing 5 Star review, Congratulation to you both on your Anniversary and support Lahaina. Video taping the Monk Seal at Kapalua Bay was the first time in my 40 years of snorkeling. It felt like this beautiful Monk Seal loved having his video taken the way it stayed around and taking it time swimming from coral to coral and even coming to the surfaces. It seem to be very curious and the sound of the sea scooter didn't even make it leave. Even filming the sea turtles and sea life doesn't and hasn't make any difference in the ocean. Thanks to you both we all got to experience a very unique adventures. Truly appreciate you taking the time to write this review for us.

Maui Nui Sunset Luau on Kaanapali Beach with Open Bar at Sheraton Resort

Thes best Luau in Maui

Reviewed by: Julie_MC

I recently had the pleasure of attending the Maui Nui Sunset Luau at the stunning Sheraton Maui, and it truly exceeded all expectations! As we arrived, we were warmly greeted with traditional lei necklaces, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening. The venue has great ocean views, it's spacious and all guests had ample room to enjoy the experience comfortably.

The food was a standout at the event, with a delicious spread of local-style dishes in the buffet. The menu had something for everyone and made a lasting impression with its flavors and presentation.

The entertainment was simply amazing, as talented dancers wowed the audience with their graceful moves and colorful outfits. The best part of the night was definitely the fire knife dance, an absolutely stunning performance that had everyone totally amazed. The combination of cultural storytelling and dynamic performances created a lively and engaging atmosphere throughout the luau.

Overall, the Maui Nui Sunset Luau at Sheraton Maui was a fantastic experience that combined great food, entertaining performances, and a stunning atmosphere seamlessly. I totally suggest checking out this luau if you want to dive into Hawaii's awesome culture and hospitality. It's a night of pure fun and entertainment!

I surprised my dad with the luau for his 60th birthday and we had a wonderful experience! Everyone was so welcoming and the atmosphere was beautiful. Our server Gerry was amazing and Jonah was very kind as well. The food was very filling and the perfect amount. The dances themselves were so beautiful, I could see how much the dancers put their hearts into the performances. I would go back to Maui just to bring more loved ones to the Old Lahaina Luau!

Old Lahaina Luau - Maui's Most Authentic Hawaiian Luau Dinner & Show

Experience Worth Having

Reviewed by: April Moon

Me and my friend had a wonderful experience at Old Lahaina.
I appreciate the history behind the island and sharing of the Hawaiian culture.
I would advise to call a day or two before the show if you did not receive your confirmation. I was happy that I called earlier. The representative wasn't able to get me the traditional seating (what i ordered) however there was space available for the table and chair.
The waiters were very accommodating because for some reason when I made the change from traditional seating to table and chair my food option did not transition over (i dont not eat pork or beef) however they were ae to provide me with fish and chicken.
Thank you so much for being flexible.
Lastly, my friend and I arrived an hour early. Do what you will but when they say the door open at a certain time be prepared to wait until that exact time

Gilligans' Island Luau - Fireknife Dance, Dinner & Show at Maui Nui Golf Club

LUAU “HIDDEN GEM”

Reviewed by: Judy S.

My hubby and I wanted a more intimate luau experience…something more like a real family luau! We found it! Although there was no emu ceremony, we were immediately seated and our drink orders taken. Then we were invited to a lovely buffet without having to wait…delicious mahi, chicken and the most delicious pork I have ever had at ANY luau! Decadent desserts too - yum! After dinner, we experienced a one hour Hawaiian luau show. The dancers were extremely skilled and their performances very entertaining. The fire knife dancer was excellent and never dropped a fire stick. Music, songs, dancing and continued drink service during a lovely sunset and a twinkle-lit venue.

We loved the experience and enjoyed it immensely….fabulous food, positive personalities, delightful dancers, melodious music - the perfect evening at a more affordable price! We’ll be back with more family!
